1. acknowledge that you have read, and agree to comply with and be legally bound by, these Terms; and
2. warrant that you are over 18 years of age and have the legal capacity to enter into a binding contract.

We reserve the right to modify these Subscription Terms at any time, consistent with applicable laws and principles, without notice to you. These changes will be effective as of the date we post the revised version on this Site. If you are uncertain about these Subscription Terms, the remainder of our Terms of Service or anything else on our Site or Platform, please don’t hesitate to contact us before completing any purchase.

Throughout these Subscription Terms, certain capitalised terms are used as defined in the ‘Definitions’ section of the Terms of Service, unless otherwise specified herein.

32.2 Subscription Access

You may purchase and access your Subscription by creating a new Kiddo account or updating your existing Kiddo account and paying the Subscription Fee via an In-App Purchase. You agree to provide accurate, current and complete information about yourself as requested or directed, and to promptly update this information to maintain its accuracy. We have the right to suspend your access to, or terminate your Subscription, if we suspect that such information is inaccurate or incomplete. We also reserve the right in our sole discretion to terminate or suspend your account for any reason whatsoever. You agree you will not receive a refund for any paid service or feature you have already been charged for.

Your access to your Subscription commences once you pay the fees for the Subscription via an In-App Purchase(‘Subscription Fees’). Your subscription continues until terminated pursuant to these Terms or the Subscription is discontinued by us. We will provide you with 30 days’ notice should we plan to discontinue the Subscription. You agree you will not receive a refund for any paid service or feature you have already been charged for.

32.3 Payment of Subscription Fees

The Subscription Fees are payable in full upfront for the selected period (e.g., monthly, 3-monthly, 6-monthly or annually). Payment may be made via an In-App Purchase.

You may make an In-App Purchase by making a purchase through a third-party platform such as the Apple App Store and Google Play Store (Third Party Store). Once you have made an In-App Purchase, you authorise the Third Party Store to automatically charge the card they have on file at the start of each billing period for the following Subscription period.

Where you fail to make payment or payment is declined for any reason, you will not be able to access the Subscription and you must provide a new eligible payment method in order to obtain access to the Subscription.

You acknowledge and accept that should we decide to increase our Subscription Fees, you will incur the increase automatically at the start of your next billing period. We will provide you with 30 days’ notice should we plan to increase our Subscription Fees, and should you choose to cancel your Subscription as a result, you may do so in accordance with section 32.5 below.  If we change the Subscription Fees and you do not cancel your Subscription, you agree that you will be charged at our revised pricing for the Subscription.

 32.4 Auto-Renewal of Subscriptions

Some of our Subscriptions are automatically-renewing subscriptions. If you purchase an automatically renewing Subscription, your Subscription will renew at the end of the period, unless you cancel. To avoid charges for a new Subscription period, you must cancel, as described in section 32.5 below, before the end of the then-current Subscription period. Deleting your account or deleting the application from your device does not cancel your Subscription.

32.5 Refunds and Cancellations

The Subscription Fees are non-refundable except as required by law or at our sole discretion. We do not provide refunds simply because your situation has changed or you have changed your mind.

If you purchased a Subscription through a Third Party Store, such as the Apple App Store or the Google Play Store, you will need to access your account with that Third Party Store and follow instructions to change or cancel your Subscription.

If you cancel your Subscription, you may use your Subscription until the end of the period you last paid for, but note: (a) you will not be eligible for a prorated refund; (b) your Subscription will not be renewed when that period expires; and (c) you will then no longer be able to receive any Carer Cancellation Fee and (d) you will no longer receive discounted Kiddo service fees or use the Subscription.

Generally, all charges for purchases are non-refundable, and there are no refunds or credits for partially used periods. If you have a refund request, we may determine in our sole discretion, that your refund request is valid, in which case your access to the Subscription will cease and you must immediately cease using and destroy any materials provided to you in the Subscription.

If you purchased your Subscription via an In-App Purchase using your Apple ID, refunds are handled by Apple, not Kiddo. To request a refund, go to iTunes, click on your AppleID, select “Purchase history”, find the transaction and hit “Report Problem”. You can also submit a request at https://getsupport.apple.com/. If you purchased in the Google Play Store, you can log into Google Wallet.

32.6 Third Party Store

If you purchased the Subscription via an In-App Purchase, you acknowledge and agree that in the event of a conflict between a Third Party Store’s applicable terms and conditions and these Subscription Terms, the Third Party Store’s terms and conditions shall govern and control. We are not responsible and have no liability whatsoever for third party goods or services you obtain through a Third Party Store. We encourage you to make whatever investigation you feel necessary or appropriate before proceeding with any online transaction with any of these third parties.

Notwithstanding the above, you acknowledge and agree that:

• these Subscription Terms are between you and Kiddo only and not with the Third Party Store, and Kiddo is solely responsible for the Subscription and our mobile app and the content thereof;
• the Third Party Store is not responsible for maintenance and support services with respect to the Subscription and has no obligation to furnish any maintenance and support services with respect to the Subscription;
• Kiddo and not the Third Party Store is responsible for addressing any claims you may have relating to the Subscription;
• the Third Party Store, and the Third Party Store’s subsidiaries, are third party beneficiaries of these Subscription Terms, and, upon your acceptance of these Subscription Terms, the Third Party Store from whom you obtained the Subscription will have the right (and will be deemed to have accepted the right) to enforce these Subscription Terms against you as a third party beneficiary thereof.

You will not be entitled to any compensation for Subscription Entitlements that are unable to proceed due to a Force Majeure event.

From time to time, we may also provide you with certain benefits, such as products, programs, workshops or other Subscriptions, which may be provided by third parties.
