Once you become a member our goal is to maintain your same membership fee, even if we have to charge newer members a higher fee. Pertaining to All Members Adding to or Updating Data Base - Foodb reserves the right to look at the food items added and food items edited to validate actual improvements to our database. You can enter the food updates for membership months in advance. If the entries do not improve the database, then you may lose your membership. Any member or nonmember willfully entering erroneous data is responsible for those changes. Initial Sign up - Since members can change our database in seconds, it is important for us to verify some member information. We simply ask for you to sign up with PayPal.com or use your credit card and those companies will independently verify that you have a legitimate bank account. This improves the quality of our members. Membership Period and Billing for Paying Members - Membership is renewed each month or quarter automatically for up to five years or until cancelled.. Foodb bills members through PayPal or their credit card each month or quarter, depending on the plan the member signs up for. Members may terminate membership at any time. Members are not refunded any of their funds paid through PayPal or their credit card to Foodb. This is because of the small membership charge and the high personnel costs in making refunds, we do not refund any membership fees. Simple financial systems cost less and thus convert to smaller fees for members. Termination of Membership - Members wishing to terminate membership must follow procedures listed in the registration link under the "End membership" link.(If you go through PayPal you must unsubscribe with PayPal to terminate membership billings and charges.) If you terminate your membership you must still pay for the remaining months in the quarter or month you signed up for. If you paid by credit card you must terminate membership two weeks prior to the quarterly charge, otherwise we will not have time to notify the bank of the cancellation of your quarterly recurring charge and thus you will be enrolled for the next quarter. The maximum cost for cancelling after the quarterly charge or less than 2 weeks before a credit card charge could cost you up to a maximum $15.00 charge for 3 more months of subscription (3 months access x $5.00 per month). User agreement Changes - Foodb reserves the right to change wording in the user agreement that applies from the end of each month changed and to future periods (not retroactive). Users must determine whether to remain a member under the new provisions or terminate membership. Copyrights Foodb |
