Your continued use of Wakelet after the time the changes are communicated will indicate your acceptance of those revised changes, so please check the Terms periodically for updates.
Privacy

Accessing Wakelet And Account Security
You are responsible for:
Making all arrangements necessary for you to have access to Wakelet.
Ensuring that all persons who access Wakelet through your Internet connection are aware of these Terms and comply with them.
By using Wakelet, whether as a Registered User or as a User, you represent and warrant that: (a) all required registration information you submit as part of the Wakelet registration process is truthful and accurate; (b) you will maintain the accuracy of this information; (c) unless you are part of a Sponsored Group, you are thirteen (13) years of age or older if a User or Registered Individual and you are eighteen (18) years of age or older if you are a Group Registered user; and (d) your use of Wakelet does not violate any applicable law or regulation. Your Wakelet account may be deleted without notification if we have reason to believe that you do not meet these eligibility requirements.
When you sign up to become a Registered User of Wakelet, you will be asked to choose a username and a password for your account, or Wakelet may assign a password to you that you may change. Alternatively we may allow you to use a third-party account and authorisation service (for example, Microsoft or Google) in order to use Wakelet, and by using a third-party 's terms of use, privacy policy and any other agreement between you and them.
You are entirely responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your password, you must treat such information as confidential, and you should not disclose it to any other person or entity.
Unless you are a Group Registered User and have agreed to and comply with these Terms in full, you also acknowledge that your account is personal to you and agree not to provide any other person with access to Wakelet or portions of it using your user name, password or other security information. For the avoidance of doubt, where you are a Group Registered User you should not share your username or password with any other person but we may permit you to allow other individuals access to Wakelet using your account, strictly in accordance with these Terms. We encourage you to use "strong" passwords (passwords that use a combination of upper and lower case letters, numbers and symbols) with your account. Wakelet cannot and will not be liable for any loss or damage arising from your failure to comply with the above.
You agree to notify us immediately of any unauthorized access to or use of your user name or password or any other breach of security. You also agree to ensure that you exit from your account at the end of each session. Subject to the foregoing, you should use particular caution when accessing your account from a public or shared computer so that others are not able to view or record your password or other personal information.
We have the right to disable any user name, password or other identifier, whether chosen by you or provided by us, at any time in our sole discretion for any or no reason, including if, in our opinion, you have violated any provision of these Terms. If we do disable your account, you shall not create another account without our permission.
Billing, Payments, Cancellations and Refunds
If you decide to upgrade to one of Wakelet's paid plans, you agree to the following payment terms and conditions. In the case of an Education or Education Pro subscription, these terms may be superseded by those stated in your quote, or final contract with Wakelet.
Billing and Payment
Individual Pro - you will be billed from the date you convert to a Individual Pro account and on each renewal thereafter unless and until you cancel your account. Wakelet will automatically bill your credit card on the calendar day corresponding to the commencement of your plan each month if on the monthly subscription, or annually if on the annual subscription. All fees and charges are pre-paid for the month or year ahead.
Education and Education Pro - your school, district or organization will be invoiced in full on commencement of your annual contract, with the payment terms as stated in your quote and/or contract documentation.
Cancellation and Refunds
Individual Pro - users can cancel their Individual Pro account at any time by visiting their Settings area in their account and choosing the downgrade option to move back to the free, Individual plan. For users on a monthly billing option, the paid features will continue to be available until the end of the monthly billing period, at which time the account will be downgraded and access to paid features will cease. There are no refunds available for partial months. For users on an annual subscription, access to paid features will cease at the end of the relevant month, and a refund will be issued for any remaining complete months to the end of the annual billing period.
Education and Education Pro - all fees and charges are pre-paid and nonrefundable, and there are no refunds or credits for partially used periods. For any questions relating to paid Wakelet accounts, please contact us directly at support@wakelet.com, or if on one of our Education plans, please speak to your Customer Success Manager.
School Use and Children:
It is acceptable for children to access Wakelet via the Classrooms feature, which ensures that their accounts remain in a private 'Classroom', monitored by their teachers. Classrooms are part of our Education and Education Pro plans as well as legacy user accounts.
Wakelet does not knowingly collect any information from children under the age of 13 unless and until the School has obtained appropriate parental consent for the student to use the Service. Because Wakelet collects and uses Student Data at the direction of and under the control of a School, Wakelet relies on School Consent when children are using the Wakelet service via the classroom feature. Please contact us at DPManager@wakelet.com if you believe we have inadvertently collected personal information of a child under 13 without proper consent so that we may delete such data as soon as possible.
If you are the sponsor of a Sponsored Group (the “Sponsor”), including a School that is using Wakelet, that includes children under the age of 13, you (or your school) with the U.S. Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (“COPPA”) and, to the extent applicable, The Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (“FERPA”), Schools may under appropriate circumstances provide such consent on behalf of parents/guardians. For more information on complying with COPPA, see the Federal Trade Commission's website at http://www.ftc.gov/privacy/coppafaqs.shtm. If you are outside of the United States, please ensure that you are complying with any laws applicable to you before submitting any child's personal information or permitting any child to submit personal information to us. If a school outside the United States wants to enable its students to use Wakelet, Wakelet will work with such schools on a case by case basis to ensure compliance with any applicable laws regarding the collection of information from minors.

In order to support this policy, we allow you to flag Content that you may deem to be inappropriate or in violation of our Terms.

In any case, the person reported is not notified of the identity of the person who made the report.

Remove or refuse to post any User Content for any or no reason in our sole discretion.
Take any action with respect to any User Content that we deem necessary or appropriate in our sole discretion, including if we believe that such User Content violates the Terms, including the Rules, infringes any intellectual property rights, privacy rights or other rights of any person or entity, threatens the personal safety of users of Wakelet or the public or could create liability for us.
