PLAIN LANGUAGE things
RENEWAL AND CANCELLATION
Unless otherwise specified, annual license renews 2 months before the sign up date unless cancelled or switched to monthly before then. Monthly term renews every month on the 28th and you may cancel at any time, after which one more renewal will run. The final month will be used for closing activities, and the system will be inactive during that month.
Early cancellations of annual licenses
As any company that provides human and software services, we regularly plan our resources, make hiring decisions, and make annual commitments of various kinds on our side based on the agreements we have with our customers.
Annual commitments allow us to plan better, run operations more effectively, and reduce our software costs to you. When an annual commitment is broken, it incurs additional costs for us.
Therefore, annually committed licenses will incur an additional fee if terminated early. The fee is calculated as follows:
FunnelBud GDPR: Retroactive charge for the period’s annual discount given so far + remaining months x €150/m.
FunnelBud Close: Retroactive charge for the period’s annual discount + remaining months x $249/m.
CURRENCY AND PRICING CHANGES
As with most software solutions, pricing may be adjusted annually with a 5-10% index rate depending on current costs, new features, software improvements and market conditions.
If you are charged in another currency than USD, please note that our pricing is based on the USD prices, and we may adjust our local currency prices during your subscription based on the dollar exchange rates.
Agency Release clause (only for FunnelBud Close customers)
We do not transfer SharpSpring licenses to other agencies. Just like with any other software, you are of course able to cancel your license with us and restart a new license with another agency, and we will help you with any data export you need.
YOUR PRIVACY
At FunnelBud, we respect the privacy of our Customers. For details please see our GDPR and Privacy Policy page. By using the web site, you consent to our collection and use of personal data as outlined therein.
We may use templates we create for you on our showcase page or mention that you are using our services at funnelbud.com unless otherwise specified.
WHAT YOU ARE NOT ALLOWED TO DO
You are not allowed to:
- Reverse-engineer or create derivative works from our stuff.
- Use these to benefit a third party.
- Remove proprietary notices or labels.
- Share your logins to any FunnelBud software or system with any of our direct competitors, add our direct competitors as users in any of our software or system, or in any other way give them access. You are also not allowed to share with them any templates, processes we implement, software, solutions, implementations, know-how about how we work, or anything else they might reverse engineer to compete with us.
- Mass-email contacts who did not opt in (this is illegal in some countries, against ours and any other respectable email platform’s policies, and even if it would be allowed it is not good practice and will harm your domain reputation which will cause even your normal emails to not reach people’s inboxes).
