Users can delete their Photo Verified status by deleting their account. Additionally, users have the option to cancel the Photo Verification process at any time prior to its completion. For details on how we manage data related to the Photo Verification process, please review our comprehensive Privacy Policy. (here).

Users should be aware that the feature may not always be fully accurate, which could result in verification being denied or in a match being confirmed even if the photo does not fully represent the user’s actual likeness.

Participation in the Photo Verification process does not result in any form of formal verification, legal implications, or change to the User’s status within the app. We do not infer any characteristics about you through the Photo Verified feature. The feature is not a requirement for PURE app usage and Users are not obligated to participate.

10. PURE subscription, subscription cancellation, payments

You should know the following about PURE subscriptions and our recurring payments policy when payment is made:

• To access and use all PURE features, you must activate a subscription. You will always be explicitly informed, stating the final prices and duration of the requested subscription and/or individual service(s), before your selected subscription and or individual service is billed through your provided form of payment. Some users might be granted a free subscription based on our discretion and specific internal criteria.
• After your initial subscription period, and again after any subsequent subscription period, your subscription will automatically continue for an additional equivalent period.
• All payments made to us are final and all charges are non-refundable.

We occasionally provide special offers with discounts. The terms of each offer are described on the page from which the user can proceed to the payment. Terms, discounts, and offers are subject to change or cancellation at any time without notice.

With an active subscription, the promotional price may be valid either for a limited time or indefinitely. In case the obtained promotional price is indefinite with an active subscription, the price will revert to the standard price once you unsubscribe.

If you have an account set up for recurring billing, you may cancel your subscription at any time. To cancel the subscription, you can follow the procedure to turn off auto-renew in your personal account settings in the mobile app under the “Subscription management” section or by clicking the cancellation link in the subscription menu on the web app. Subscriptions can only be canceled on the same platform they were bought on. Cancellations of your subscription will be effective for the following billing period in which payment is due. You will not receive a refund for any payment amount, even if payment was made for multiple billing periods. Deleting the app or your account is not enough to cancel the subscription.

You will continue to have the same access for any billing period or periods for which you have paid. If your User Submissions or your conduct within PURE violates the Agreement, your access and account may be immediately terminated and all payments forfeited. In such an event, no refunds will be issued for either used or unused portions of the subscription period.

Users that reside in the European Union, European Economic Area or United Kingdom are in accordance with Directive 2011/83/EU, Consumer Contracts Regulations 2013 or any other applicable consumer laws entitled to a full refund of paid subscription during the 14 days after the purchase of the subscription, without stating the reason for it. 

The following provisions are added to these Terms and Conditions for subscribers living in Arizona, California, Connecticut, Illinois, Iowa, Minnesota, New York, North Carolina, Ohio, Rhode Island, and Wisconsin: You, the subscriber, may cancel any order for subscription services, without penalty or obligation, at any time before midnight of the third (3rd) business day after the original date of that your subscribe for such services, excluding Sundays and holidays. To cancel a subscription, mail or email a signed and dated notice that states that you, the subscriber, are canceling the subscription, or words of similar effect. This notice must be sent to PURE at the notice address set forth in Section 23 with the header “Section 8 Cancellation.” Please include your username and email address in any correspondence or your refund may be delayed. If you cancel, we will return, within ten (10) days of the date on which you give notice of cancellation, any payments you have made. If you send or deliver the notice to cancel your subscription within the three (3) day period, we will refund the full amount of your subscription. If you die before the end of your subscription period, your estate will be entitled to a refund of that portion of any payment you had made for your subscription that is allocable to the period after your death. If you become disabled (such that you are unable to use the services of our App) before the end of your subscription period, you will be entitled to a refund of that portion of any payment you had made for your subscription that is allocable to the period after your disability by providing us notice at the address set forth in Section 23. 

Along with the subscription, PURE provides special features, available as in-app purchases that will give certain advantages and improve experience. Users may be able to purchase a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-bearing, revocable, limited, non-transferable, non-sublicensable and personal license to use virtual titles, gifts, coins or any other units that are provided by PURE on the platform and can be exchanged for any other virtual good within the App (collectively, “Virtual Goods”). Users can see the balance of Virtual Goods in the settings of their profile, which represents a measurement of the extent of the User's license but does not reflect stored value nor does it constitute a real-world balance. Following the Users' purchase, the foregoing license is revocable, and PURE may terminate the license when an account is terminated or closed according to the provisions of these Terms and Conditions. Users are aware and comply with the fact that PURE will neither refund nor is required to refund purchased Virtual Goods for any reason that may occur (whether in the virtual or physical world), meaning all purchases are final and non refundable. 

Purchases of Virtual Goods are final and non refundable for users that reside in the European Union (EU), European Economic Area (EEA) or United Kingdom (UK) in accordance with Consumer Rights Directive 2011/83/EU, Consumer Contracts Regulations 2013 or other applicable laws. This policy applies once the performance has begun with users' prior given consent and acknowledgement that the right of withdrawal will be lost, making users' right of withdrawal not applicable. Users therefore acknowledge that their right of withdrawal is waived upon purchase, as the performance commences immediately upon completion of the transaction.

Additionally, PURE will neither provide nor is required to provide a refund or any other compensation for Virtual Goods when the User's account is either voluntarily closed or terminated according to the provisions of these Terms and Conditions. Virtual Goods can be modified, eliminated, controlled, regulated, managed and adjusted in terms of price by PURE at any time at its sole discretion. 

When User's account is terminated according to the provisions of these Terms and Conditions, subscriptions may not automatically be canceled. It is the sole responsibility of the user to ensure that any active subscriptions are canceled manually to prevent the automatic renewal. PURE shall not be held liable for any charges incurred due to failure to cancel subscriptions after an account termination.

Please note that certain subscriptions may be tailored to a specific gender to enhance your experience on PURE. Specifically crafted for different genders, these subscriptions aim to offer customized content and services.
