You have accepted these Terms of Use, which govern your use of our service. Personally identifying information is subject to our Privacy Statement, the terms of which are incorporated herein. Please review our Privacy Statement to understand our practices.

As used in these Terms of Use, “The Butter Book service”, “our service” or “the service” means the service provided by The Butter Book for consuming The Butter Book content, including all features and functionalities of the website, as well as all content and software associated with our service. Similarly, “The Butter Book content”, “our content” or “the content” means the content provided by the Butter Book on the website and on other and any type of marketing material created by The Butter Book.

​

Membership

​

To use the service, you must have internet access and a compatible device. You must provide one or more Payment Methods upon registration, or, if a promotional trial is offered, prior to expiration of such trial period. “Payment Method” means a current, valid, accepted method of payment, and which may include payment through your account with a third party. The membership fee for the service and any other charges you may incur in connection with your use of the service, such as taxes and possible transaction fees, will be charged to your Payment Method on the specific billing date. You authorize us to charge any Payment Method associated to your account in case your primary Payment Method is declined or no longer available to us for payment of your subscription fee. You remain responsible for any uncollected amounts. If a payment is not successfully settled, due to expiration, insufficient funds, or otherwise, and you do not cancel your account, we may suspend your access to the service until we have successfully charged a valid Payment Method. For some Payment Methods, the issuer may charge you certain fees, such as foreign transaction fees or other fees relating to the processing of your Payment Method. Check with your Payment Method service provider for details.

​

Cancellation

​

Your membership will continue and automatically renew until terminated. You must cancel your membership before it renews in order to avoid billing of the membership fees for the next billing cycle to your Payment Method. You can cancel your membership at any time, and you will continue to have access to the service through the end of your billing period. If you cancel your membership, your account will automatically close at the end of your current billing period.

​

We reserve the right to change our subscription plans or 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 or changes to your subscription plan will take effect following notice to you.

Payments are nonrefundable and there are no refunds or credits for partially used periods. Following any cancellation, however, you will continue to have access to the service through the end of your current billing period. At any time, and for any reason, we 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.
