3. Account Usage, Eligibility, and Fair Use
- Eligibility: You must be at least 18 years old and capable of forming a binding contract to use the Service.
- Account Security: You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account credentials and for all activities under your account.
- Prohibition on Sharing: Accounts are for individual or single-entity use only. Sharing account credentials with others is strictly prohibited.
- Fair Usage: Your use of the Service, particularly under a Subscription, is subject to our Fair Usage Policy outlined in Section 4 below.
4. Fair Usage Policy
- Intended Use: The Service, including features available under Subscription plans (like unlimited report generation), is intended for analyzing data related to your own e-commerce business(es) that you directly own or operate.
- Prohibited Use for Agencies/Consultants: Using a single account (including Subscription accounts) to generate reports or access analytics for multiple distinct clients, customers, or third-party businesses for commercial consulting or agency purposes is strictly prohibited under standard plans.
- Agency & Consultant Options: If you are an agency, consultant, or wish to use APUS NEST to service multiple clients, you must contact us at hello@apusnest.com to discuss a tailored Agency or Partnership offer. We may also recommend that each client maintains their own separate APUS NEST account.
- Monitoring and Enforcement: We reserve the right to monitor usage to ensure compliance with this policy. Excessive report generation, analysis of clearly unrelated datasets under a single account, or other patterns indicative of prohibited agency use may result in account review, feature limitations, or suspension/termination of your account without refund, at our sole discretion.
- Individual Business Exception: If you own and operate multiple distinct e-commerce stores yourself, using a single Subscription account to analyze data from these stores is generally permitted, provided usage remains reasonable and does not constitute providing a service to others. Contact us if you are unsure.
5. Payments, Subscriptions, and Refunds
- One-Time Payment (Report Unlock): You may pay a one-time fee to unlock perpetual access to the full data of a specific Free MBA Report. This fee applies per-report.
- Subscription Plans: We offer recurring Subscription plans (e.g., monthly, annually) for access to premium features as detailed on our Pricing page . Subscriptions automatically renew unless cancelled.
- Billing: Subscription fees are billed in advance for the upcoming period (monthly or annually) via our payment processor, Stripe. You authorize us to charge your designated payment method.
- Cancellation: You can cancel your Subscription at any time through your billing settings or by contacting support. Cancellations take effect at the end of the current billing period. You will retain access to Subscription features until then. No pro-rata refunds are provided for cancellations made mid-period.
- Effect of Cancellation/Expiration: Upon cancellation or expiration of a Subscription, your access to premium features (e.g., unlimited report generation, extended GA history) will cease. Reports generated *during* an active subscription remain accessible according to the standard report availability terms (see below), but their access level reverts, potentially limiting features like AI chat for those reports. Access to the basic free tier of services (e.g., Free Reports via CSV, basic GA dashboard) remains.
- Payment Processing: Payments are processed via Stripe. We do not store sensitive payment card details .
- Report Availability (General): Unlocked Reports (via One-Time Payment) are accessible perpetually. Free Reports expire after 72 hours. Reports generated under a Subscription remain accessible after the subscription ends, but premium features tied to the subscription (like AI chat within those reports) may become unavailable.
- Refund Policy:
- One-Time Payments: Non-refundable, as value is delivered instantly, except for verifiable technical failures preventing access.
- Subscriptions: Generally non-refundable. No refunds or credits are provided for partial subscription periods or unused time. Exceptions may be considered solely at our discretion in cases of significant, verifiable service unavailability not caused by the User.
