If you have elected to pay the fees by credit card, you represent and warrant that the credit card information you provide is correct and you will promptly notify Appy Couple of any changes to such information. Fees paid by you are non-refundable, except as provided in these Terms or when required by law.
  2. Subscriptions. Some of our Services are billed on a subscription basis (we call these "Subscriptions"). This means that you will be billed in advance on a recurring, periodic basis (each period is called a "billing cycle"). Billing cycles are typically monthly or annual, depending on what subscription plan you select when purchasing a Subscription. Your Subscription will automatically renew at the end of each billing cycle unless you cancel auto-renewal through your online account management page, or by contacting our customer support team. While we will be sad to see you go, you may cancel auto-renewal on your Subscription at any time, in which case your Subscription will continue until the end of that billing cycle before terminating. You may cancel auto-renewal on your Subscription immediately after the Subscription starts if you do not want it to renew within the first 14 days for a full refund. Annual Subscriptions must be canceled within 14-days from the date of sign-up for a full refund. You may disable your auto-renew settings at any time on your online account management page. Monthly subscriptions when canceled will be canceled effective your next "billing cycle".

    For Subscriptions purchased via the App Store or Google Play please see the documentation provided by Apple for App Store purchases here: https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT202039 and for Google Play here: https://support.google.com/googleplay/answer/7018481?co=GENIE.Platform%3DAndroid&hl=en
  3. United States Sales Tax.

Appy Couple will provide you with advance notice of any change in fees.
  5. Overage Fees. Unless otherwise stated, any overage fees incurred by you will be billed in arrears. Overage fees which remain unpaid for 30 days after being billed are considered overdue.

We will use the information you provide to us in accordance with our Privacy Policy, which is available here and incorporated by reference herein.
  2. Length Of Service
    Appy Couple provides domain service subscriptions in annual increments only. This is because domain names can only be registered in annual increments.

This is out of our control and due to the global domain registry. Occasional service outages may occur that Appy Couple cannot control. If such outages occur, Appy Couple will work on restoring service as soon as possible. Appy Couple is not liable or responsible for damages if such outages occur.
  5. Domain Name Usage and Ownership
    To the extent available, Appy Couple will register the domain for your website. Appy Couple is acting as your nominee only and all liability associated with the domain name or content on the domain is yours. Appy Couple reserves the right to reject (either at the time of selection or afterward), to abandon, and to transfer at any time (including on your behalf) any domains and/or wedding websites in the event that it receives notification that the domain infringes or allegedly infringes any third party right or for any other reason. No changes to the domain name are possible after it has been purchased. There are no exceptions to this. A change of domain name entails purchasing and paying for a new domain name. When an Appy Couple wedding account is closed and you have also purchased a custom domain, the domain will no longer be able to access your wedding website. You however continue to own the domain for the rest of it's term and can have the domain moved to a different account on Appy Couple or be transferred to a new provider (GoDaddy, NameCheap etc.).
  6. Privacy
    Domain privacy is included at no additional cost for domains ending in .com, .info, .net and .org. Your information will not be disclosed and as such register the domain under our name and contact information.
    However, domains, such as .co.uk, .ca, .de, .jp, and .us require exact "purchaser" information, and will restrict the registration of domains only to those who have a resident address in that country. In these instances, we require full customer/purchase information. One option to avoid this disclosure is to switch to a less regulated .org or .net address.
  7. Limitation of Liability
    You understand that Appy Couple does not control all aspects of the domain registration process. For example, once you submit a domain registration, Appy Couple forwards the information contained in the registration to the appropriate Registry Administrator for processing and actual registration of the name.

Governing Law; Venue and Jurisdiction.
By visiting or using the Site, you agree that the laws of the State of New Jersey, without regard to principles of conflict of laws of any state or jurisdiction, will govern these Terms and any dispute of any sort that might arise between you and Appy Couple or any of our affiliates. With respect to any disputes or claims not subject to arbitration (as set forth below), you agree not to commence or prosecute any action in connection therewith other than in the state and federal courts of Maryland, and you hereby consent to, and waive all defenses of lack of personal jurisdiction and forum non conveniens with respect to, venue and jurisdiction in the state and federal courts of Maryland.

Arbitration.
Disputes between you and Appy Couple regarding the Site and our services should be reported to support@AppyCouple.com . We will attempt to resolve any disputes you have with us. Because We are a neutral venue We are not responsible for resolving any disputes between you and App Owners regarding services or transactions. Any claim or controversy arising out of or relating to your use of this Site, to the goods or services provided through Appy Couple, this Agreement, or to any acts or omissions for which you may contend AppyCouple is liable, including but not limited to any claim or controversy as to arbitrability ("Dispute"), shall be finally, and exclusively, settled by arbitration. The arbitration shall be held before one arbitrator under the commercial arbitration rules of the American Arbitration Association ("AAA") in force at that time. The arbitration shall be conducted in Bethesda, Maryland. The arbitrator shall be selected pursuant to the AAA rules. Should no AAA rule regarding Maryland selection of an arbitrator be in effect, the Member shall select an arbitrator from a panel of arbitrators acceptable to Appy Couple. In any arbitration, the parties will split the cost of the filing fee, plus the costs associated with the first day of arbitration, with the remaining costs of arbitration paid by the non-prevailing party, provided, however, that in Maine any cost to the consumer shall be limited to the cost of filing a court case. To begin the arbitration process, a party must make a written demand therefore.

Any judgment upon an award rendered by the arbitrators may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction in Bethesda, Maryland. The arbitrators shall not have the power to award damages in connection with any Dispute in excess of actual compensatory damages and shall not multiply actual damages or award consequential, punitive or exemplary damages, and each party irrevocably waives any claim thereto. The agreement to arbitrate shall not be construed as an agreement to the joinder or consolidation of an arbitration under this Agreement with an arbitration of disputes or claims of any non-party, regardless of the nature of the issues or disputes involved.

THIS AGREEMENT PROVIDES THAT ALL DISPUTES BETWEEN YOU AND APPY COUPLE WILL BE RESOLVED BY BINDING ARBITRATION. YOU THUS GIVE UP YOUR RIGHT TO GO TO COURT TO ASSERT OR DEFEND YOUR RIGHTS. YOU ALSO GIVE UP YOUR RIGHT TO PARTICIPATE IN OR BRING CLASS ACTIONS. YOUR RIGHTS WILL BE DETERMINED BY NEUTRAL ARBITRATORS AND NOT A JUDGE OR JURY. You are entitled to a fair hearing, but the arbitration procedures are simpler and more limited than rules applicable in court. Arbitrator decisions are enforceable as any court order and are subject to very limited review by a court. By using AppyCouple's goods and services or the Site, you consent to these restrictions.

Should a Dispute arise and should the arbitration provisions herein become inapplicable or unenforceable, or in any instance of any lawsuit between you and Appy Couple, the parties agree that jurisdiction over and venue of any suit shall be exclusively in the state and federal courts sitting in Bethesda, Maryland. If either party employs attorneys to enforce any right in connection with any Dispute or lawsuit, the prevailing party shall be entitled to recover reasonable attorneys' fees.
