Please see our Pricing Page for a description of the current subscription plans and their prices (hereafter “Subscription Policies”).

Please note that the Subscription Policies that are disclosed to you in subscribing to the service are deemed part of this Agreement. Further, Sociamonials may change Service features and functionality from time to time. For purposes of this Agreement the term “Member” includes all paying subscribers, regardless of renewal term or price level, unless where its usage indicates otherwise. The Subscription Fee is payable in United States dollars (including, if any, all applicable taxes).

Subscriptions; Charges on your Billing Account.

  1. General. You agree to pay Sociamonials the subscription fee (“Subscription Fee”) specified in the Pricing Page during the subscription Period (“Subscription Period”). Unless a separate agreement is executed by both parties, there is a one month Subscription Period.
  2. Payment Method. A valid credit card is required to subscribe to the Service. Sociamonials bills you through a secure online account (your “Billing Account”) for use of the Service. We have an SSL certificate that prohibits your sensitive credit card information from being intercepted. Your complete billing information is not stored on Sociamonials servers. For your protection, our secure payment gateway partner stores your complete billing information. You agree to pay Sociamonials for all charges at the prices then in effect for any use of the Service by you or other persons (including your agents) using your Billing Account, and you authorize Sociamonials to charge your chosen credit card (your “Payment Method”) for the Service. You agree to make payment using that selected Payment Method. Sociamonials reserves the right to correct any errors or mistakes that it makes even if it has already requested or received payment. If Sociamonials does not receive payment from your Payment Method, you agree to pay all amounts due on your Billing Account on demand.
  3. Auto-Renewal of Your Subscription Period. You will be entitled to receive the Service only during the subscription period (“Subscription Period”) specified on your Billing Form. All subscriptions will automatically renew at the end of your subscription period until cancelled by you. You will not receive further notice of auto-renewal.
  4. Recurring Billing. Our subscription plans use recurring billing. You will automatically be charged the Subscription Fee for the subsequent month unless you cancel the Service before the new Subscription Period begins. By entering into this Agreement, you accept responsibility for all recurring charges prior to cancellation. SOCIAMONIALS MAY SUBMIT PERIODIC CHARGES (E.B., MONTHLY) RELATING TO YOUR SUBSCRIPTION WITHOUT FURTHER AUTHORIZATION FROM YOU, UNTIL YOU CANCEL YOUR ACCOUNT. SUCH NOTICE WILL NOT AFFECT CHARGES SUBMITTED BEFORE SOCIAMONIALS REASONABLY COULD ACT.
  5. Current Information Required. YOU MUST PROVIDE CURRENT, COMPLETE AND ACCURATE INFORMATION FOR YOUR BILLING ACCOUNT. YOU MUST PROMPTLY UPDATE ALL INFORMATION TO KEEP YOUR BILLING ACCOUNT CURRENT, COMPLETE AND ACCURATE (SUCH AS A CHANGE IN BILLING ADDRESS, CREDIT CARD NUMBER, OR CREDIT CARD EXPIRATION DATE), AND YOU MUST PROMPTLY NOTIFY SOCIAMONIALS IF YOUR PAYMENT METHOD IS CANCELED (E.G., FOR LOSS OR THEFT) OR IF YOU BECOME AWARE OF A POTENTIAL BREACH OF SECURITY, SUCH AS UNAUTHORIZED DISCLOSURE OR USE OF YOUR USER NAME OR PASSWORD. IF YOU FAIL TO PROVIDE SOCIAMONIALS ANY OF THE FOREGOING INFORMATION, YOU AGREE THAT SOCIAMONIALS MAY CONTINUE CHARGING YOU FOR ANY USE OF THE SERVICE UNDER YOUR BILLING ACCOUNT UNLESS YOU HAVE TERMINATED YOUR SUBSCRIPTION FOR THE SERVICE.
  6. Change in Amount Authorized. If the amount to be charged to your Billing Account varies from the amount you pre-authorized (other than due to the imposition or change in the amount of state sales taxes), you have the right to receive, and Sociamonials shall provide, notice of the amount to be charged and the date of the charge at least 60 days before the scheduled date of the transaction. Notice will be sent to the email address currently associated with your Sociamonials account. You agree that Sociamonials may accumulate charges incurred and submit them as one or more aggregate charges during or at the end of each billing cycle.
  7. Refunds. Sociamonials will provide new, first-time Members a full refund so long as the Member cancels within thirty (30) days of first signing up (the “thirty-day refund period”). Sociamonials will not provide refunds to persons who have previously opened other accounts, whether or not they are using the same or different user names, email addresses, or billing information. Each person or business entity is only entitled to one thirty-day refund window. Successive sign-ups and refunds are prohibited. After the thirty-day refund period, there shall be no refunds and your Subscription fee is non-transferable. Accordingly, if you elect to cancel your subscription to the Service during the Subscription Period, you will not receive a refund on the Subscription Fee(s) previously paid to Sociamonials. If you downgrade your subscription to a lower level, you are not entitled to a cash refund; You may be eligible to pay a reduced, pro-rated amount on your new subscription, depending on when you downgrade.
  8. Auto-renewal. Your Sociamonials subscription will be automatically extended for successive renewal periods of the same duration as the subscription term originally selected. Sociamonials reserves the right to renew your subscription at the then-current non-promotional subscription rate provided 60 days notice to you of an increase in fees. The notice shall be sent to the email currently associated with your Sociamonials Membership.
  9. Cancellation. You are solely responsible for properly canceling your account. You can cancel your account at any time by going to your Account Settings page (you must be logged in to view this page) and selecting the “Change Credit Card Info” link. Once you are on the Change Credit Card Info page, you can choose to cancel your account. An email request to cancel your account is not considered cancellation. While we try to respond to email requests to cancel accounts, we may not receive or respond to all emails. Please do not assume your account has been canceled if you email site support. Use the “Change Credit Card Info” link to cancel your account. All of your Content (text, files, social media posting data) will be immediately deleted from the Service upon cancellation. This information cannot be recovered once your account is cancelled. If you cancel your Membership prior to the end of the Subscription Period, then Sociamonials will terminate your access to the Service and cease billing you for the Service. However, you remain responsible for all charges incurred prior to Sociamonials terminating access to your account.
  10. Disputed Credit Card Charges. Sociamonials will terminate Member access to the Service upon learning of Member's dispute of valid credit card charges. Service will be restored once Member reimburses Sociamonials for amount of chargebacks and fees.
  11. Collection. Members will pay on all amounts past due, that have not been disputed specifically in writing and in reasonable good faith, an interest charge of one and one-half percent (1.5%) per month computed from the due date of each payment, or the maximum rate permitted by law. Member will be liable for attorneys’ fees and collection costs arising from Sociamonials’ efforts to collect unpaid balances.
  12. Reaffirmation of Authorization. Your non-termination or continued use of the Service reaffirms that Sociamonials is authorized to charge your Payment Method. Sociamonials may submit those charges for payment and you will be responsible for such charges. This does not waive Sociamonials’ right to seek payment directly from you. Your charges may be payable in advance, in arrears, per usage, or as otherwise described when you initially subscribed to the Service.
  13. Promotions. Any promotion that provides Member-level access to the Service must be used within the specified time of the trial. You must cancel your subscription before the end of the trial period in order to avoid being charged a Subscription Fee. If you cancel prior to the end of the trial period and are inadvertently charged for a subscription, please contact support@sociamonials.com to have the charges reversed.

Modifications to Service. Sociamonials reserves the right at any time to modify or discontinue, temporarily or permanently, the Service (or any part thereof) with or without notice, including but not limited to changes in usage policies and post limits to ensure service stability and fairness.
