To become a Connect Premium subscriber, a user pays a one-time $5.95 activation fee and first month subscription of $5.95. Each consecutive month thereafter the Premium subscriber will be automatically billed $5.95

BY ACTIVATING AN CONNECT PREMIUM ACCOUNT, CONNECT PREMIUM SUBSCRIBERS CONSENT TO HAVING THEIR MONTHLY SUBSCRIPTION CONNECT FEE OF $5.95 AUTOMATICALLY WITHDRAWN FROM THE METHOD OF PAYMENT THEY SELECTED AT ACTIVATION.
SHOULD A PREMIUM SUBSCRIBER NO LONGER WISH TO PAY FOR MONTHLY SUBSCRIPTION, THEY CAN EITHER DE-ACTIVATE OR CANCEL THEIR USER ACCOUNT. THIS FEATURE IS AVAILABLE IN THE PROFILE SECTION OF A SUBSCRIBERS ACCOUNT.


From time to time Connect Premium subscribers may receive a notification polling them if they are still satisfied with their billing schedule. Connect Premium subscribers can cancel their subscription at any time and for any reason.
Annual Connect Premium subscribers will automatically have their subscription renewed at the end of the calendar year subscription unless they personally cancel their subscription and account through the subscription cancellation function in their account menu.

Connect Premium subscription has to remain active during the subscription program chosen by the CONNECT subscriber to continue to receive Connect Premium subscription rebates ( if offered ), including but not limited to CONNECT Booking, ADVT Credits / Discounts and CONNECT  Participation Rebates. If Connect Premium subscription is not paid because of a lack of funds on behalf of the CONNECT subscriber, membership will convert to free CONNECT LITE subscription until such time that the subscriber pays $5.95 at which time the Connect Premium subscription will be re-activated. 

REFUND AND CHARGE BACK / DISPUTE POLICY

By activating and paying the product subscription activation fee, a new subscriber agrees and accepts to be bound by the CONNECT Network Refund and Charge Back / Dispute Policy.

This will enable new customers to take full advantage of the entire product suite for 15 full days while making up their minds whether they like and want to continue their product subscription membership. At the end of the 15th day, customers agree to not chargeback or dispute the product activation fee and waive their rights to a full refund.

CONNECT will provide an unconditional refund of the monthly customer product subscription fee of $5.95 within 10 calendar days of the occurance of such payment.

You understand that we will only access, view, or listen to your content in limited ways. For example, in order to perform the Services, we may need to access, view, or listen to your content to (a) respond to support requests; (b) detect, prevent, or otherwise address fraud, security , unlawful, or technical issues; and (c) enforce these terms. Our automated systems may analyze your content using techniques such as machine learning. This analysis might occur as the content is sent, received, or when it is stored. From this analysis, we are able to improve the subscribed Services.

You understand that you can not make traditional deposits in United States Dollars or any other legally denominated and accepted currency into your connect wallet account.  Funds paid in a user's wallet account are the result of conditional incentive rebates made by COUPON CONNECT to its subscribers.  Third party funds cannot be deposited in a user's wallet account.  COUPON CONNECT is not a third party money transmitter. The wallet purchase advt function is utilized for the purposes of Premium subscription, coupon or expo payments whereas the prospective Connect Premium subscriber does not have access to or ability to pay for their Premium subscription with a debit or credit card. COUPON CONNECT does not charge for or otherwise financially benefit from this feature. No commissions or fees are applied except those charged by the processor of the credit or debit card transaction, normally 3.9% plus $0.30 per transaction. Purchase ADVT credits transactions are considered purchases and not deposits.

The CONNECT Premium subscriber wallet Connect Withdraw Funds feature is exclusively established for the withdrawal of CONNECT  Participation rebates. It is prohibited to utilize this function for the purposes of third party money transmission. Subscribers cannot fund their connect wallet account for purposes of withdrawing those funds outside the scope of what the function was established for. To illustrate, a subscriber cannot use the PURCHASE ADVT CREDITS function to deposit funds in their wallet account for the purpose of then withdrawing those funds to another source as their sole intention outside of the stated purpose of the function.

When you use the function of PURCHASE ADVT CREDITS you are, in fact, purchasing advanced credits to be used as funds in the following manner:

As an option to use the wallet to pay for your Connect Premium subscription.
Purchase content in  CONNECT Expo and or purchase Coupons

The following example is how this great benefit and function cannot be used and any CONNECT subscriber who willfully and intentionally uses the ADVT function for the purposes of any external source funding as an exclusive application is subject to review and possible subscription de-activation and subscription termination action.

EXAMPLE: Credit your connect wallet account with funds paid for with a debit or credit card, then immediately withdraw those funds to an external source without using them for their intended purposes.  

The Withdraw Funds function is intended specifically for the purposes of

Withdrawing CONNECT  Participation Rebates extended to Connect Premium subscribers from time to time,
Discount Rebates paid to CONNECT subscribers Advertising in CONNECT Expo
Funds received as a consequence of the sale of CONNECT coupon value products.

You shall be completely and solely responsible for your own content, product, service or store submissions and the consequences of posing or publishing them.

Don't respond to emails asking for your account or personal financial information. Spoof and phishing (pronounced "fishing") are terms coined to describe emails made to look like they've come from legitimate sources and companies but that actually come from identity thieves. These emails warn you of account problems or other urgent issues to trick you into clicking through to a scam website. The scam website then asks you to enter your user name and password or other account information. Once you do this, you've given your information to someone who might use it to do you harm. The COUPON CONNECT will NEVER ask you to enter your password or any other personal information, including but not limited to financial information, in an email or send such information in an email. You should only share information about your account once you have logged into the website directly from your browser.

Unauthorized subscriber registration by proxy is not condoned unless expressed permission has been granted by the registrant to the registrar either verbally or in writing.  COUPON CONNECT accepts no liability for unauthorized registration by proxy and will, at the request of the registrant, either a) remove registrant data or b) provide the necessary guidance to registrant to delete their account.

You must not create or submit unwanted or unsollicited email to any COUPON CONNECT subscriber ('Spam').

URL and EMAIL Rotators

URL and Email Rotators are browser and software programs which direct visitors to other websites often used for cross promotion and cross selling. Rotators are often used by affiliate marketing and multi level marketing groups to direct and "blast" traffic. CONNECT is not an affiliate network, direct sales network or multi level marketing network and therefore CONNECT subscribers cannot use URL or Email Rotators to spam messages to other CONNECT subscribers and doing so is a direct violation of the CONNECT subscriber Spam Policy and subscribers who do so are subject to account termination.  Rotator messages are considered "unwanted" and "unsollicited" communications and are not to be used within the CONNECT network.
