If you wish to purchase Paid Services, you may be asked to supply payment information. You represent and warrant that you have the legal right to use any payment methods in connection with any Purchase, and that the information you supply is accurate.

We use third-party payment processors (currently Stripe, Inc.) to bill you. The processing of payments will be subject to the terms and privacy policies of the Payment Processors in addition to this Agreement.

No Refunds

HOOC DOES NOT ISSUE ANY REFUNDS FOR ANY PRODUCTS OR SERVICES PURCHASED ON OR THROUGH THE SERVICES AND WE ARE NOT OBLIGATED TO PROVIDE ANY CREDITS FOR PARTIALLY USED PERIODS.

Unless you opt out of auto-renewal, any Paid Services you have signed up for will be automatically extended for successive renewal periods at the then-current non-promotional rate. To cancel, go to your account settings before the end of the recurring term.

Account Suspension & Termination

Terminations by Hooc

Hooc is free to terminate (or suspend access to) your use of the Services or your Hooc Account for any reason in our discretion, including your breach of this Agreement.

Effect of Termination

Account termination may result in destruction of any Content associated with your account. We will try to provide advance notice prior to terminating your account so that you are able to retrieve any important User Submissions, but we may not do so if we determine it would be impractical, illegal, or harmful.

Other Legal Terms

Warranty Disclaimer

THE SERVICES AND CONTENT ARE PROVIDED BY HOOC ON AN "AS-IS" BASIS, WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, OR THAT USE OF THE SERVICES WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED OR ERROR-FREE.

Limitation of Liability

TO THE FULLEST EXTENT ALLOWED BY APPLICABLE LAW, UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES SHALL HOOC BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR ANY INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, PUNITIVE OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES OF ANY KIND, OR ANY AMOUNT IN THE AGGREGATE IN EXCESS OF THE GREATER OF $100 OR THE AMOUNTS PAID BY YOU TO HOOC IN THE 12 MONTHS PRECEDING THE APPLICABLE CLAIM.

You agree to indemnify and hold Hooc harmless from and against any and all claims, liabilities, damages, losses and expenses arising from or in any way related to your use of the Services and your violation of this Agreement.

Governing Law

This Agreement is governed by and will be construed under the Federal Arbitration Act, applicable federal law, and the laws of the State of California, without regard to the conflicts of laws provisions thereof.

Arbitration Agreement

The parties shall use their best efforts to settle any dispute through good-faith negotiations.

Waiver of Class Actions

Change of Terms

We reserve the right to change this Agreement at any time. If we do, we will place a notice on our site or send you an email. If you don't agree with the new terms, you are free to reject them; unfortunately, that means you will no longer be able to use the Services. If you use the Services after a change is effective, that means you agree to all of the changes.

Miscellaneous

You and Hooc agree that this Agreement is the complete and exclusive statement of the mutual understanding between you and Hooc, and that this Agreement supersedes all previous written and oral agreements.
