By continuing to use PURE following the dispatch of an email to you containing notice of changes to the Agreement, or after notice of such alterations was posted on PURE, your binding acceptance of these alterations is constituted, and agreement that such alterations shall automatically come into effect 10 days after our email giving notice to you was sent, or 10 days after notice of the changes was posted on PURE, is given.

7. Content submitted by Users

These User Submissions and certain other information about you are subject to our privacy policy (see here). You are always solely responsible for your own User Submissions and for the consequences of posting or publishing them. 

Regarding your User Submissions you affirm, represent, and warrant that:

You further understand and acknowledge that you may be exposed to User Submissions that are inaccurate, offensive, indecent, or objectionable.

To the extent permitted by applicable law, we assume no responsibility in connection with or arising from any User Submissions. In this context, please note the following:

• We assume no responsibility for actively monitoring User Submissions for inappropriate content. If at any time we decide, solely at our discretion, to monitor User Submissions, we nonetheless do not assume any responsibility for the content of User Submissions, nor any obligation to modify or remove any inappropriate User Submissions, and no responsibility for the conduct of the User submitting User Submissions.
• We do not endorse and nor have any control over the content of User Submissions submitted by other Users. We make no warranties, express or implied, as to the content of User Submissions or the accuracy and reliability of any User Submissions. Nonetheless, we reserve the right to prevent you from submitting User Submissions and to edit, restrict, or remove User Submissions for any reason at any time.

We and our licensees may publicly display advertisements and other information adjacent to your User Submissions and Feedback. You are not entitled to any compensation for such advertisements.

8. 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.

Along with the subscription, PURE provides special features, available as in App purchases that will give certain advantages and improve experience. Users are 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”). Every User can always 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 fact that Users' purchased license is revocable, PURE is eligible to terminate the license when an account is terminated or closed according to the provisions of this Agreement. 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. 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 this Agreement. Virtual Goods can be modified, eliminated, controlled, regulated, managed and adjusted in terms of price by PURE at any time at its sole discretion. 

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.

You agree that any termination of your access to PURE or any account you may have on PURE, or component thereof may be effected without prior notice, and you agree that we will not be liable to you or any third party for any such termination.
