Creating Membership
7.Check your creds. The Services are available to members. You agree to provide us with accurate and complete information about yourself when you register with us and as you use the Services.
8.Passwords, key lock codes and keys. Don’t reveal your account password or transfer your key or other access device or credentials to anyone else (or let them use your account), and don’t make any copies of any keys, or other means of entry to our Premises (each, an “Access Device”). You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your password, security of your Access Device and key lock code. You must promptly notify us if you suspect your password, Access Device or key lock has been compromised. Access Devices remain our property, and you must return them immediately upon termination or expiration of your Membership. You may be charged a replacement fee for any lost or damaged Access Devices.
9.Linking to a company. During the registration process, you may identify a Company (defined below) with whom your profile is associated. Alternately, your individual profile may have been created by an authorised representative of your employer or other entity for which you provide services (a “Company”), and your profile will be associated with such Company. You agree that you will not falsely represent your association with any Company, impersonate any third party, or otherwise submit or present any false or misleading information to us or the Innovation Labs community. In the event your relationship with the Company in your profile changes or ends, you agree to promptly update your profile to reflect this, you may submit a request to do so at [email protected]. If your Membership is provided by a Company, you may lose access to the Services upon termination or change in status of your relationship with such Company. If you are an authorised representative of an entity receiving the Services, you hereby warrant and represent to us that (a) you have the proper authority to create, terminate and maintain the company account and to add and remove individual members to and from the account and (b) you have obtained all necessary consent from any applicable individuals for the creation of their accounts and the processing of individual information within and outside of the UK. You agree to indemnify us for any loss we may suffer as a result of any breach of these warranties and representations.
Paying for Your Membership
10.Payments. By signing up for a Membership, or any other Services (including any Service Packages or Conference Room reservations) and providing your payment information, you agree to pay us the recurring or nonrecurring fees associated with the particular Services you are purchasing, as displayed to you at the time you create your account and/or sign up for the relevant Services, or as updated by us from time to time upon notice to you. You acknowledge and agree that the payment method provided by you will be automatically charged the fees and any other amounts you may incur or be liable for (including for damages caused to any of our Premises or property) in connection with the Services. Only a single payment method may be used at any given time to make payments for all Services you purchase in a single transaction. You must keep your payment information up-to-date and accurate. Recurring fees, which may include recurring membership fees (“Membership Fees”) and any other recurring fees you have agreed to in connection with the Services will be charged on the first (1st) of each month unless we notify you otherwise. Overage fees and other non-recurring fees will be charged within thirty (30) days of you accruing such fees. If payment for your Membership Fee or any other accrued and outstanding fee is not made by the tenth (10th) of the month in which such payment is due, you will be responsible for paying the then-current late charge. Your use of the Services may be immediately suspended, and eventually terminated, if we are unable to charge your payment instrument for any reason. When we receive funds from you, we will first apply the funds to any balances which are in arrears and to the earliest month due first. Once past balances are satisfied, any remaining portion of the funds will be applied to current fees due. The fees applicable to your account may be subject to modification from time to time, and such modifications will become effective upon your next subscription period. Your continued use of the Services following notice of any such modifications, and through the next payment date, constitutes your agreement to such modified fees. You may at any time cancel your account as set forth below if you do not agree to any modified fees. If we have charged you VAT and if, according to law, the Services provided by us to you pursuant to these terms are at any time found to be exempt from VAT, then we will credit the VAT charged to you and collected by us. In addition, in such event, the fee charged to you will be retroactively increased by an amount equal to the VAT amount that is to be credited to you. Such credits and accompanying fee increase will offset each other and the total amount paid to us by you will remain the same.
11.No refunds. All fees are non-refundable. All fees must be paid in the official local currency of the location of your contracting entity or as otherwise specified by Innovation Labs.
