You may set your browser and your mobile settings to block cookies and local storage devices, but if you do so, you may not be able to access all of the features that Data Apples offers.
For the purposes of the General Data Protection Regulation ("GDPR"), Data Apples shall use its reasonable endeavours to provide you with the operational tools to enable you to fulfil your requirements under the GDPR and address any requests made by your customers in respect of their individual rights. Data Apples makes no guarantee in this respect and it is your responsibility to inform Data Apples of any tools it may need to comply with its obligations under the GDPR.
EULA
You agree that the Data Apples Software (the "Software") is supplied by Data Apples, and is licensed, not sold, under the terms of its End User Licence Agreement ("EULA") and that the EULA will govern all use of the Software by you. You accept that you have no right to use the Software without agreeing to the terms of the EULA in full.
A Software licence offered to you via the Website may be a 'Leased Software Licence' or an 'Owned Software License'. The licence's type will affect your rights under it. A licence's type will be clearly labelled at the point of purchase.
License holders are not permitted to "borrow", "lend", "sell" or in any other way transfer licenses or use of the Software to any third parties except in the case of an 'Owned Software License Transfer' as detailed below. Any breach by you of this term of the Terms of Service shall cause all use by you of the Software to be revoked and terminated immediately and without Data Apples incurring any liability.
The EULA Agreement is included in the Data Apples download package. By installing, copying, or otherwise using Data Apples, you agree to be bound by the terms of the EULA.
Data Apples reserves the right to refuse service to any individual or organisation at its discretion. Data Apples reserves all rights in, and all ownership of the Software.
Accessing the Website
Data Apples does not guarantee that the Website, or any content on it, will always be available or be uninterrupted. Access to the Website is permitted on a temporary basis. Data Apples may suspend, withdraw, discontinue or change all or any part of the Website for business and operational reasons. Data Apples will try to give you reasonable notice of any suspension or withdrawal. Data Apples will not be liable to you if for any reason the Website is unavailable at any time or for any period.

Service Provision and End User License Agreement
Renewals & Payments
Payments made in respect of the Software are accepted via Credit Card and other selected means at Data Apples' sole discretion. Software licences automatically renew at the conclusion of each month until cancelled. Payment is due on the anniversary of the date of signup each month. If payment is not received within 5 days of the due date, Data Apples will suspend the license until full payment is received and reserves the right to suspend any and all related services for the account in question.
For all other Services, payments shall be due in advance of any work commencing. Data Apples reserves the right to invoice for Services in installments, with payment being split into multiple payments, including without limitation arrangements whereby 50% of the price is paid prior to any work commencing, and the remainder is invoiced upon completion.
Should Data Apples receive a chargeback or dispute relating to a payment you have made, or should your payment be identified as fraudulent or otherwise unlawful, irregular or contrary to this Terms of Service or the EULA, the related licence and services will be suspended and you will be liable to repay the relevant amount plus any fees incurred. Data Apples also reserves the right to revoke any and all Services until such time as any disputed amounts plus any fees and charges incurred (including for the avoidance of doubt, any relevant payment processing fees) have been repaid.
Delivery
All licenses shall be issued instantly upon Data Apples receiving to its satisfaction confirmation of receipt of payment from the chosen gateway processor.
Data Apples' professional services typically take 1-2 business days to be completed, but this is not a guaranteed completion time, and at peak times such as new releases, they may take longer.
30 Day Money Back Guarantee
In the unlikely event that you are not completely satisfied with Data Apples' Software, Data Apples is, subject to the terms of this clause, happy to provide you with a full refund for the cost of your licence. To claim a refund under this money back guarantee you must submit a cancellation request from Data Apples' members area within 30 days of the original purchase date stating why the Software was not to your satisfaction.
The Money Back Guarantee applies to new clients only, and applies to license & addon related charges only. Services that have commenced or completed, or are provided by third parties are not eligible for refund. A new client is determined by both the registered client information and the domain that the Data Apples license is installed on, thus if there is a record of Data Apples having been used in the past by either the same company or person, or on the same domain, then you will not be eligible for refund under Data Apples' Money Back Guarantee.
If Data Apples offer products and services that are provided by third parties, those products and/or services will be subject to the policies of the third party provider regardless of whether those products and/or services appear to be provided by us.
Cancellations & Refunds Policy
Leased Software Licences may be cancelled at any time. No notice period is required, and cancellation shall be effective from the date the cancellation request is made or processed. Requests for cancellation should be submitted from Data Apples' members area.
Any monies paid for Leased Software Licence renewals prior to a cancellation request being submitted are non-refundable. The same applies to any Services; once a Service has been started, any fees paid in respect of that Service shall be non-refundable.
Data Apples reserves the right to cancel Services and access to the Service at any time. If a customer breaks the terms of the EULA or Terms of Service, a refund will not be available.
Outside the 30 Day Money Back Guarantee period, refunds are only issued for Software failure (where the Software materially fails to perform in accordance with its specification). Refunds are not issued for server failure/issues, lack of features, lack of technical sophistication or if your server does not meet the Software requirements. Refunds are determined on a case by case basis and only issued once Data Apples' technical staff determine that Data Apples has a fault causing it to be unable to operate in your environment. Installation charges are not refundable under any circumstances. Refunds are not available after one (1) month from the purchase date.
License Transfer Policy
Data Apples permits Owned Software Licenses to be re-sold or transferred once per license key (fees apply) pursuant to the terms of transfer set out in the EULA. Owned Software Licenses are not eligible for transfer until at least 3 months have passed from the date of purchase. Owned Software Licences obtained via a reseller are excluded from this policy and are not eligible for any re-sales or transfers. Leased Software Licences cannot be re-sold or transferred under any circumstances.
Before any sale or transfer, please contact us to verify eligibility of your license key. Upon request of the transfer, Data Apples will issue an invoice for the license transfer fee. Once paid, Data Apples will request from you the name, email address and details of the new owner for the license to be transferred to. All transfers are final and cannot be reversed.
Addons may be transferred between licenses within your own client account but not resold or transferred to other accounts.
