ITS reserves the right at any time and from time to time to modify, discontinue, temporarily or permanently, ITS, or any part or portion thereof, with or without notice to you. You agree that ITS shall not be liable to you or to any third party for any modification, suspension or discontinuance of ITS, or any part of portion thereof. Nothing in these Terms of Use shall be construed to obligate ITS to maintain and support ITS, or any part or portion thereof, during the term of these Terms of Use.
Paid Services
Certain aspects of ITS may require payments. If you use those aspects of ITS, you agree to the applicable pricing and payment terms. Such terms will be displayed in connection with that aspect of ITS requiring payment. ITS may update pricing and payment terms at any time and in its sole discretion, with any changes to subscription fees taking effect upon the conclusion of your current subscription term unless otherwise specified. The transaction is with the specific ITS entity identified by the aspect of the Website used to make the purchase.
All payment transactions are administered by a third-party payment processor or third-party store. ITS expressly disclaims any liability for the processing of any transactions by a third party, including any errors in invoicing or payment processing or any breach in security with respect to your payment information associated with the third-party’s handling of the transaction. ITS is not responsible or liable to you for any credit card, bank-related, or other financial service charges and fees related to your transactions. You represent and warrant that all payment information you provide is correct, current, and complete. You agree to pay all applicable charges (including any applicable taxes) billed to your chosen payment method. ITS reserves the right to refuse or cancel transactions, due to pricing or other typographical errors.
All purchases are final and No Refunds are Available unless otherwise specified in applicable Additional Terms, including where your account is terminated or suspended preventing your access to paid aspects of the Service, such as any remaining subscription terms. In the event you manage to create more than one Subscription, you will not be refunded for any subscription fees associated with those additional accounts. ITS "MAY" help facilitate the cancellation of any additional accounts. Subscriptions have no monetary value and are purchases of only a limited, personal, non-transferrable, non-exclusive, non-sublicensable, non-assignable, and fully revocable license to access the applicable portion of the Service. Unless otherwise specified (at initial sign-up or subsequently), subscriptions will renew automatically on a monthly, quarterly, annual basis, or for up to the initial subscription term, at a rate not exceeding the rate for the prior subscription period. If you sign up for a free trial subscription (if available), you will be automatically billed at the then-current rate at the conclusion of the free trial. You may cancel any automatically renewing subscription by accessing your DASHBOARD, which is found through the dropdown menu next to your user name in the upper right corner of the site. From the DASHBOARD page, select Subscription. You are able to select Cancel Subscription from there, unless another cancellation method is specified in applicable Additional Terms.
Subscriptions
You are responsible for ensuring that the credit card associated with your account or subscription is up to date, that information posted in connection with it is accurate, and that you are authorized to use the credit card.
Price Changes
ITS reserves the right to adjust pricing for our Service or any components thereof in any manner and at any time as we may determine in our sole and absolute discretion. Except as otherwise expressly provided for in these Terms of Use, any price changes to your service will take effect following email notice to you.
Cancellation of ITS Subscriptions
For security reasons, an email or phone call to ITS is not sufficient to cancel your ITS subscription, which you may cancel at any time by selecting the Subscription button found in the DASHBOARD section of the Site. The DASHBOARD is accessible from the dropdown menu next to your username, in the upper right corner of the site. YOU are required to initiate a subscription cancellation through the Site. Cancellation does not entitle you to a refund under any circumstances. You will continue to have access to the Site and Services you have paid for until the end of your subscription term, but will lose access if the subscription is not in good standing. If you choose to cancel your ITS subscription during your subscription term, you will not be refunded, in whole or in part.
Risk of Loss
All purchases of physical items from In The Spread are made pursuant to a shipment contract. This means that the risk of loss and title for such items pass to you upon our delivery to the carrier.
No Refunds
PAYMENTS ARE NONREFUNDABLE AND THERE ARE NO REFUNDS OR CREDITS FOR PARTIALLY USED PERIODS. At any time, and for any reason, ITS may provide a refund, discount, or other consideration to some or all of our members ("credits"). The amount and form of such credits, and the decision to provide them, are at our sole and absolute discretion. The provision of credits in one instance does not entitle you to credits in the future for similar instances, nor does it obligate us to provide credits in the future, under any circumstance. If you choose to modify your subscription during your subscription term, your subscription rate will change as of the date of renewal, but you are not entitled to a refund, of any kind, at any time.
Typographical Errors
In the event that a ITS product is mistakenly listed at an incorrect price, ITS reserves the right to refuse or cancel any orders placed for product(s) listed at the incorrect price. ITS reserves the right to refuse or cancel any such orders whether or not the order has been confirmed and your credit card charged. If your credit card has already been charged for the purchase and your order is cancelled, ITS shall issue a credit to your credit card account in the amount of the incorrect price.
Submitted Content
You agree that any ideas, feedback, information, materials or content that you provide, submit, upload or otherwise transmit to ITS (“User Content”) will be available for ITS use free of any obligations to you. You hereby (a) grant to ITS a royalty-free, perpetual, irrevocable, non-exclusive, worldwide license to any and all rights in the User Content including all copyrights therein, for any exploitation by ITS and/or by any person authorized by ITS, by any means and in all media now known or hereafter devised, without payment to you or any third party, and to advertise and promote such exploitation, for the full period of all such rights (together with any extensions and renewals) and insofar as possible in perpetuity; (b) waive all moral rights in the User Content that may be available to you; (c) appoint ITS as your agent with full power to enter into any document and/or do any act ITS may consider appropriate to confirm the grant and waiver set out above; (d) warrant that you are the owner of the User Content and are entitled and have the rights necessary to enter into these Terms of Use; (e) confirm that no such User Content is subject to any obligation, of confidence or otherwise, to you or any third party, and that ITS shall not be liable for any use or disclosure of such User Content.

Accordingly, Users will be held directly and solely responsible for the content of messages that are posted. While not moderating the forums, the Site reviewer will periodically perform an administrative review for the purpose of deleting messages that are old, have received few responses, are off topic or irrelevant, serve as advertisements or seem otherwise inappropriate. ITS has full discretion to delete messages. Users are encouraged to read the specific forum rules displayed in each discussion forum first before participating in that forum.
ITS reserves the right (but is not obligated) to do any or all of the following:
- Record the dialogue in public communication forums.

Product Submissions Prohibited
ITS does not accept unsolicited submissions for motion pictures, television programs, web sites, articles, e-books, or other products or services.

Therefore, please do not make any such unsolicited submissions to ITS through this Website or by e-mail, text message or otherwise. However, if you decide to make any such unsolicited submission, you hereby grant to ITS the right and license to the submission as if it were User Content, as set forth above.

You acknowledge that, if any information provided by you is untrue, inaccurate, not current or incomplete, ITS reserves the right to terminate your use of the Website.
ITS may offer you the possibility to connect your accounts on certain third party sites such as Facebook and Twitter, with the Site by an application programming interface (API) or other software.

The notice must include the following information: (a) a physical or electronic signature of a person authorized to act on behalf of the owner of an exclusive right that is allegedly infringed; (b) identification of the copyrighted work claimed to have been infringed (or if multiple copyrighted works located on the Website are covered by a single notification, a representative list of such works); (c) identification of the material that is claimed to be infringing or the subject of infringing activity, and information reasonably sufficient to allow ITS to locate the material on ITS; (d) the name, address, telephone number, and email address (if available) of the complaining party; (e) a statement that the complaining party has a good faith belief that use of the material in the manner complained of is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law; and (f) a statement that the information in the notification is accurate and, under penalty of perjury, that the complaining party is authorized to act on behalf of the owner of an exclusive right that is allegedly infringed.
