• Your THiNKtech Account and Data. If you create an account on the Service, you are responsible for maintaining the security of your account and data, and you are fully responsible for all activities that occur under the account. You must notify THiNKtech immediately of any unauthorized uses of your data, your account or any other breaches of security.

THiNKtech may also from time to time change its policies on offering commercial content or displaying advertising, and may do this without notice.
• Upgraded Memberships. Users have the option to purchase additional features or functionality for their THiNKtech account (“upgraded membership”). These upgraded memberships may be purchased by paying a recurring subscription fee. The terms stated below will govern your participation in these programs.
  • Subscription Cancellation by You: If you have purchased a recurring upgraded membership subscription, you may end your upgraded membership at any time. When you choose to end your upgraded membership subscription, your membership subscription does not renew on the next auto-renewal date. You may continue to enjoy your upgraded membership benefits until that date, after which your account will be automatically downgraded.
  • Cancellation by Us: We may cancel your subscription at any time for any reason, with or without prior notice.
