You retain all rights to your User Content, but by uploading it, you grant Cross Check a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free license to use, reproduce, display, and perform this content as necessary for providing and improving the Service.

• Attempting to decipher, decompile, disassemble, or reverse engineer any of the software used to provide the Service is forbidden.
• You may not use any automated system, including but not limited to "robots," "spiders," or "offline readers," to access the Service in a manner that sends more request messages to the Cross Check servers than a human can reasonably produce in the same period.

• Cross Check reserves the right, but is not obligated, to remove or disable access to any content that we find, in our sole discretion, to be in violation of these terms, harmful to the community, or for any other reason.
• If we determine that you have violated these terms, your account may be suspended or terminated, with or without notice. This decision is at Cross Check’s sole discretion and may result in the loss of data associated with your account.

Fees and Billing

1. Subscription Plans and Fees

• Cross Check offers various subscription plans with differing features and pricing structures. Details of these plans and their associated fees are available on our website. By selecting a plan, you agree to pay the specified fees as per the plan's billing cycle.
• All fees are quoted in United States dollars and are exclusive of taxes, levies, or duties imposed by taxing authorities. You are responsible for the payment of all such taxes, levies, or duties.

2. Payment Terms

• Payment for subscription services is due at the beginning of each billing cycle. Your subscription will automatically renew at the end of each cycle unless you cancel it.
• We accept payment via credit card, debit card, or other approved methods. By providing a payment method, you represent and warrant that you are authorized to use that payment method.

3. Free Trial and Upgrades

• Cross Check may offer a free trial period for its services. At the end of the trial period, we will automatically enroll you in the paid subscription plan you selected during the trial signup process, and your payment method on file will be charged accordingly.
• If you decide to upgrade or downgrade your service plan, the changes will be processed on a prorated basis. Upgrades will take effect immediately with prorated charges applied, while downgrades will be reflected in your next billing cycle with a prorated adjustment to your billing amount. To avoid automatic enrollment in a paid plan and associated charges at the end of the free trial, you must cancel the trial subscription before it expires.

4. Late Payments and Non-Payment

• If any fee cannot be charged to your credit card or if a charge is refunded for any reason, including chargeback, Cross Check reserves the right to either suspend or terminate your access to the unpaid-for services.
• Accounts are subject to cancellation due to non-payment. Please ensure your payment information is up to date to avoid interruption of service.

5. Cancellation and Refunds

• You can cancel your Cross Check subscription at any time. Cancellation is immediate, and access to paid features will be discontinued from the moment of cancellation.
• Upon cancellation, we will adjust any fees already paid on a prorated basis. This means you will only be charged for the time you used the service during the billing cycle, and any excess amount will be refunded.
• Cross Check offers a 30-day refund policy. If you are not satisfied with our service within the first 30 days of your subscription, you are eligible for a 100% refund. To initiate a refund, please contact our support team within this 30-day period.
• Refunds will be credited to the original method of payment. Please note that after the initial 30-day period, prorated refunds are given only in the case of immediate cancellation.

6. Changes to Pricing
