Terms of Service

Introduction

Thanks for using our products and services (“Services”)! Welcome to the Connect.Space (“Site”) system, which is owned and operated by Connect Space, Inc. (and referred to in this agreement as “Connect Space”), located at 320 South Main Street, Suite C, Ann Arbor, MI 48104, United States.

We start every new relationship with a contract. The terms outlined in the contract are what you can expect from us and what we expect from you.

Please read the following terms carefully, and keep a copy of them for your reference.

Privacy and Copyright Protection

Your use of Connect.Space is subject to Connect Space’s Privacy Policy. Please review our Privacy Policy, which also governs the site and informs users of our data collection practices.
We respond to notices of alleged copyright infringement and terminate accounts of repeat infringers according to the process set out in the U.S. Digital Millennium Copyright Act.

Electronic Communications

Visiting Connect.Space or ConnectSpaceInc.com or sending emails to Connect Space constitutes electronic communication. You consent to receive electronic communications and you agree that all agreements, notices, disclosures, and other communications that we provide to you electronically, via email and on the Site, satisfy any legal requirement that such communications be in writing.

Your Account

If you use this Site, you are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account and password and for restricting access to your computer. You agree to accept responsibility for all activities that occur under your account and password. You may not assign or otherwise transfer your account to any other person or entity.
You acknowledge that Connect Space is not responsible for any third party access to your account that results from theft or misappropriation of your account.
Connect Space and its associates reserve the right to refuse or cancel service, terminate accounts, or remove or edit content at our sole discretion.
Connect Space does not knowingly collect, either online or offline, personal information from persons under the age of thirteen (13). If you are under 18, you may use Connect.Space or ConnectSpaceInc.com only with the permission of a parent or guardian.

Cancellation/Refund Policy

Planners and Other “Per Event” Software Fee Purchasers:
Once you have purchased and begun to use Connect Space’s products and services (on the “per event” payment basis) for any phase of event planning whatsoever, you cannot cancel the services. No refunds will be given under the “per event” payment plan once use has commenced.
If you signed up with us when we were offering our month-by-month price model, you may cancel your subscription at any time unless otherwise negotiated and agreed. However, depending on when you cancel during the month, we may still charge you pro rata for the portion of the month you used and then refund the rest.
All Users: You may cancel your registration for any event up until the start time and day of the event. However, event producers or others responsible for holding the event may specify in clear terms during the registration process that you may only receive a certain portion of your payment as a refund if you cancel. Please make sure to pay attention during registration. We are not responsible for the cancellation fees or refund policies of any event producer or others responsible for the event. Additionally, Connect Space adheres to the refund policies of its payment provider gateway. Connect Space can only offer transaction terms that are consistent with the terms of our payment gateway and merchant portal. If your payment processor does not refund transaction fees when processing transaction refunds, then Connect Space cannot either.
