Changes to Terms

We may revise and update these Terms from time to time in our sole discretion. All changes are effective immediately when we post them and apply to all access to and use of the Platform thereafter. Your continued use of the Platform following the posting of revised Terms means that you accept and agree to the changes. You are expected to check this page each time you access the Platform so you are aware of any changes, as they are binding on you.

In order to complete your sign-up, we may require you to agree to Additional Agreements (as defined below). Upon sign-up Kennected may assign you a username and password where required.

Refund Policy

EXCEPT AS REQUIRED BY LAW OR AS OTHERWISE STATED IN THESE TERMS, PAYMENTS ARE NON-REFUNDABLE, INCLUDING ALL FEES AND OTHER CHARGES. Notwithstanding the foregoing, we will refund your initial payment for a new subscription to access the Platform if within seventy-two (72) hours of such payment you send a written refund request to support@kennected.io specifying the refund request, your name, your contact information, and your order ID. Failure to timely provide such request and all required information to us will result in your waiver of any applicable refund; provided, however, no refunds will be given for any initial payment that included a special offer, promotion, or discount. You agree we have sole discretion to determine whether your obligations provided in this section have been met and whether the refund will be provided.

For avoidance of doubt, no refunds will be given for any payments: 

• Following the initial payment for a new subscription to access the Platform, which such refund for the initial payment is subject to the terms above.
• For special offers, promotions, or discounts.
• For a current month, or other longer payment period agreed to by us in writing, of services, even if a cancellation request is received during such month or other period. Once fees are owed for a given month or other period, they are deemed earned by us and owed by you.

If we provide a refund, we endeavor to process such refund within approximately thirty (30) business days of our acceptance of the refund. A refund will be credited back to the same payment method used to make the original purchase.

YOU AGREE THAT ANY DISPUTE, CAUSE OF ACTION, OR CLAIM INITIATED BY YOU IN CONNECTION WITH ANY REFUND OR REQUEST FOR A REFUND IS FRIVOLOUS, GROUNDLESS, AND/OR IN BAD FAITH AND THAT WE WILL BE ENTITLED TO SEEK PUNITIVE DAMAGES IN ADDITION TO ALL OTHER REMEDIES AND YOU WILL BE RESPONSIBLE FOR ALL ATTORNEYS’ FEES IN CONNECTION WITH SUCH DISPUTE, CAUSE OF ACTION, OR CLAIM.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, you will be required to complete a brief survey related to Kennected as a precondition to your cancellation. For avoidance of doubt, even if you cancel, you will still owe all fees and other charges for the current pay period. Upon cancellation or termination, you will not be entitled to any refunds or proration of any fees paid except as stated in these Terms.

Termination or cancellation for any reason shall not relieve you of the obligation to pay any amounts owed to us. Upon any termination or cancellation, you shall pay us all unpaid amounts owed to us, together with all applicable fees (including reasonable attorneys’ fees), costs, and expenses.
