If Member provides any information that is untrue, inaccurate, not current or incomplete, or Aetho has reasonable grounds to suspect that such information is untrue, inaccurate, not current or incomplete, Aetho has the right to suspend or terminate Member’s account and refuse any and all current or future use of the Service (or any portion thereof).

4. AETHO PRIVACY POLICY

You can review the most current version of the Privacy Policy at any time at the Beame website.

5. MEMBER ACCOUNT, PASSWORD AND SECURITY
Member is required to provide Aetho a valid email address and a password as part of the sign up process.

Ala-carte features added in between a month are pro-rated (e.g., based on the billing cycle above, if Member purchases additional features worth $10 per month on January 15, Member would be charged $5.16 for the current month (($10 divided by the number of days in the current billing cycle) times the number of days left in the current billing cycle which includes the current day upgraded).

Member agrees to notify Aetho of any change in the status of Member’s credit card, including any cancellation, change of account number, change of billing address, or change of any authorized users. Aetho reserves the right to suspend or terminate Member’s Service, with or without notice, upon rejection of any credit card charges made to Member’s credit card or if Member’s card issuer (or its agent or affiliate) seeks a refund on payments previously made to Aetho when Aetho believes that Member is liable for the charge. Such rights are in addition to and not in lieu of any other legal rights or remedies available to Aetho. Furthermore, should Aetho pursue legal and equitable means to collect any amounts owed by Member, Member agrees to pay all reasonable attorneys’ fees, court costs and collection fees incurred by Aetho in the collection thereof.

Aetho reserves the right to change the pricing or billing practices as necessary. If the pricing or billing practices change(s), Aetho will make reasonable efforts, such as via email or website postings, to notify Member of such change. Member agrees to pay all charges billed to Member’s account, including unauthorized use prior to Member’s notification to Aetho of such unauthorized use and taking steps to prevent such unauthorized use. Failure to use your account will not be deemed a basis for refusing to pay any charges submitted by Aetho in accordance with this TOS.

Members may elect to cancel Service at anytime. Recurring fees for the first billing period, be it month, quarter or year, are nonrefundable. Following the first billing period, recurring fees would be fully refunded for cancellations made within 5 business days.

Member agrees that upon termination of Service for any reason whatsoever, Member’s stored information and files may be deleted permanently.

8. INDEMNIFICATION
Member agrees to indemnify and hold Aetho, and its subsidiaries, affiliates, officers, directors, shareholders, agents, co-branders or other partners, and employees, harmless from any and all claims, expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees), damages, suits, costs, demands, or judgments whatsoever, whether groundless or otherwise, made by any third party due to or arising out of Member’s use of the Service, violation of the TOS, Member’s violation of any rights of another Member, person or entity.
