Terms and Conditions

These Terms and Conditions pertain to the purchase and ongoing use of the news, media, content, information, data and related subscription services offered by ModioLegal (the “ModioLegal Services”). By purchasing ModioLegal Services, you agree to be bound by the following Terms and Conditions.

Purchase of ModioLegal Services. ModioLegal Services License. When you purchase ModioLegal Services, ModioLegal grants you a limited, revocable, non-exclusive, non-transferable license to stream the ModioLegal Service to your computer and/or other device(s) exclusively for your personal, non-commercial use. You agree to not otherwise copy, reproduce, distribute or use the ModioLegal Service other than as expressly set forth herein. You will not sell, transfer, lease, modify, distribute or publicly perform the ModioLegal Service in any manner and you will not use it for any commercial purpose. You agree to not modify, reverse engineer, decompile or disassemble the ModioLegal Service, or otherwise tamper with the ModioLegal Service or create any derivative works therefrom.

Pricing. Subscription pricing is subject to change at any time in ModioLegal's sole discretion. Except where noted otherwise, with respect to all subscriptions, any list price displayed represents the full price listed for the subscription itself, as determined by ModioLegal. ModioLegal does not confirm the price of an item until you order. While we use our best efforts to avoid items from being mispriced, in the unlikely event that an item is mispriced and the item’s correct price is higher than our stated price, we may, at our discretion, cancel your order.

Payments. You must maintain a valid payment instrument, such as a credit card or other permitted payment method, on file with your ModioLegal account in order to use ModioLegal. If you want to use a different payment instrument, you must modify your authorized payment instrument information online.

Subscriptions. If you purchase ModioLegal Services, you will be charged the full subscription price upon purchase. ModioLegal may charge any other credit card on file with your account, if your default payment instrument is declined for any reason.

Risk of Loss. Once we have made ModioLegal Services available to you, you will bear the risk of loss for accessing the ModioLegal Services, including any loss of internet access or loss due to a device or hard drive crash. Purchased ModioLegal Services will generally continue to be available when you log on to your ModioLegal account but may become unavailable due to licensing restrictions from content providers or other reasons outside the control of ModioLegal, and ModioLegal will not be liable to you if ModioLegal Services become unavailable for further access. You will not receive a full or partial refund of any fees already paid in such circumstances. After reviewing our online help resources, if you are not able to access the ModioLegal Services, please contact ModioLegal customer support.

Plan Terms. ModioLegal subscription plans are automatically renewable in a term length equal to the term of your corresponding existing subscription plan (ex. existing six month plans automatically renew on a six month basis), until terminated by you or ModioLegal in accordance with these Terms and Conditions. ModioLegal will charge your default payment instrument the applicable fee on your renewal date. ModioLegal may charge any payment instrument on file with your ModioLegal account, if your default payment method is declined for any reason.

Refund Policy for Subscriber Cancellations. Subscribers may cancel their subscription at any time during any applicable trial period; however, once any applicable trial period expires, ModioLegal does not provide refunds for subscriber cancellations.

Plan Modifications and Cancellations. Prior to the renewal date of a corresponding subscription plan, you may cancel the renewal of the subscription plan or modify your renewal to a different subscription plan.

Expiration of the Underlying Print Publication Subscription. If your ModioLegal subscription is conditioned upon an active subscription to an underlying print publication and your subscription to the underlying print publication expires before the end of your corresponding ModioLegal subscription, ModioLegal will terminate your corresponding ModioLegal subscription and refund the portion of your ModioLegal subscription fee corresponding to all full months remaining on your ModioLegal subscription. For example, if you sign up for a six-month subscription that comes into effect on February 1 (after any applicable trial period) and the subscription to your underlying print publication expires on June 15, ModioLegal will refund the one sixth of your subscription fee corresponding to the month of July.

Termination of ModioLegal Service. It is conceivable that ModioLegal’s business may change over time. We reserve the right to modify ModioLegal Services. We also reserve the right to suspend or discontinue your use of ModioLegal Services or the ModioLegal Services generally, in whole or in part, at any time with or without notice and without liability to you. If you are an active subscriber at the time we exercise such right, you may be entitled to a full or partial refund.
