In the event of such termination, you will be entitled to prorated refund of the unused portion of any prepaid fees. Your continued use of the Service after the effective date of any change to the Terms will be deemed to be your agreement to the modified Terms.

Subscription to Beta Service

We may offer certain Services as closed or open beta services (“Beta Service” or “Beta Services”) for the purpose of testing and evaluation. You agree that we have the sole authority and discretion to determine the period of time for testing and evaluation of Beta Services. We will be the sole judge of the success of such testing and the decision, if any, to offer the Beta Services as commercial services. You will be under no obligation to acquire a subscription to use any paid Service as a result of your subscription to any Beta Service. We reserve the right to fully or partially discontinue, at any time and from time to time, temporarily or permanently, any of the Beta Services with or without notice to you. You agree that we will not be liable to you or to any third party for any harm related to, arising out of, or caused by the modification, suspension or discontinuance of any of the Beta Services for any reason.

Fees and Payments

The Services are available under subscription plans of various durations and costs.

At the start of (and throughout) the subscription period, you shall provide us with valid, up-to-date, accurate and complete credit card details or direct debit mandate details and any other relevant valid, up-to-date, accurate and complete contact and billing details.

You authorise us to charge your credit card and/or bank account for all amounts payable during the subscription period and you further authorise us to use a third party to process payments and consent to the disclosure of your payment details to any such third party.

At the end of any fixed subscription period, the subscription fees will increase to the standard published prices unless specifically agreed otherwise in advance.

Your subscription will be automatically renewed at the end of each subscription period unless you connect with our Renewals team on 01926 355424 or by email at success@nimbusproperty.co.uk to discuss. At the time of automatic renewal, the subscription fee will be charged via an invoice to your account or to the Credit Card last used by you. We provide you the option of changing the details if you would like the payment for the renewal to be made through a different Credit Card.

If you do not wish to renew the subscription, you must inform Us at least twenty eight days prior to the renewal date.
All amounts and fees stated in these Terms or on our Site are non-cancellable and non-refundable and are exclusive of VAT, which shall be added to our invoice(s) at the applicable rate.

No refunds will be made for copies of either title registers or title plans for individual registered properties (“Land Registry Documents”) at any time after they have been ordered, due to the personalised nature of the goods being produced for your order. Because the information in these documents is provided immediately, once you pay for it you lose the right of cancellation you would normally have under the Consumer Contracts (Information, Cancellation and Additional Charges) Regulations 2013. By making a request to buy Land Registry Documents you agree to pay the fees for the service and accept that you lose your right to cancel once the chosen item(s) are made available for download.

Subscription plans are typically administered based on either a contracted annual term or a monthly rolling term. If you seek to cancel your annual subscription or if any payment method fails before the end of a contracted annual term, any unpaid amounts relating to the subscription period will become due immediately and will be charged in full, and no amounts already paid relating to the subscription period will be refundable.

If you have not cancelled your subscription, you will be authorising Us to charge the subscription fee via the subscription payment method last used by you. Any amounts invoiced to an account must be paid no later than 14 days from the invoice date. We reserve the right to charge interest at the prevailing rate on any accounts not paid within these terms. An administration charge of £40 plus VAT will be applied in each instance of any failed payments, cancelled direct debit mandates or if any amounts remain unpaid for 28 days since the invoice date.

Your access to the Site may be disabled in the event of any failed payments or amounts overdue, and re-enabled once any such amounts are paid.

From time to time, we may change the price of any Service or charge for use of Services that are currently available free of charge. Any increase in charges will not apply until the expiry of your then current billing cycle. You will not be charged for using any Service unless you have opted for a paid subscription plan.

User Sign up Obligations

You need to sign up for a user account by providing all required information in order to access or use the Services. If you represent an organisation and wish to use the Services for corporate internal use, we recommend that you, and all other users from your organisation, sign up for user accounts by providing your corporate contact information. In particular, we recommend that you use your corporate email address.

You agree to: a) provide true, accurate, current and complete information about yourself as prompted by the sign up process; and b) maintain and promptly update the information provided during sign up to keep it true, accurate, current, and complete. If you provide any information that is untrue, inaccurate, outdated, or incomplete, or if we have reasonable grounds to suspect that such information is untrue, inaccurate, outdated, or incomplete, we may terminate your user account and refuse current or future use of any or all of the Services.

Age of User

By using Nimbus Maps (Essentials, Elite, Elite Plus or Elite Max), you are confirming that you are over the age of 18.

Communications from Us

The Service may include certain communications from Us, such as service announcements, administrative messages and newsletters. You understand that these communications shall be considered part of using the Services. As part of our policy to provide you total privacy, we also provide you the option of opting out from receiving newsletters from Us. However, you will not be able to opt-out from receiving service announcements and administrative messages.

Restrictions on Use

In addition to all other terms and conditions of this Agreement, you shall not: (i) transfer the Services or otherwise make it available to any third party; (ii) provide any service based on the Services without prior written permission; (iii) use the third party links to sites without agreeing to their website terms & conditions; (iv) post links to third party sites or use their logo, company name, etc. without their prior written permission; (v) publish any personal or confidential information belonging to any person or entity without obtaining consent from such person or entity; (vi) use the Services in any manner that could damage, disable, overburden, impair or harm any server, network, computer system, resource of Us; (vii) violate any applicable local, state, national or international law; or (viii) create a false identity to mislead any person as to the identity or origin of any communication.

Inactive User Accounts Policy

We reserve the right to terminate unpaid user accounts. In the event of such termination, all data associated with such user account will be deleted. We will provide you prior notice of such termination and option to back-up your data. The data deletion policy may be implemented with respect to any or all of the Services. Each Service will be considered an independent and separate service for the purpose of calculating the period of inactivity. In other words, activity in one of the Services is not sufficient to keep your user account in another Service active. In case of accounts with more than one user, if at least one of the users is active, the account will not be considered inactive.

Indemnification

You agree to indemnify and hold harmless Nimbus Maps, its officers, directors, employees, suppliers, and affiliates, from and against any losses, damages, fines and expenses (including attorney’s fees and costs) arising out of or relating to any claims that you have used the Services in violation of another party’s rights, in violation of any law, in violations of any provisions of the Terms, or any other claim related to your use of the Services, except where such use is authorised by Us.

Suspension and Termination

We may suspend your user account or temporarily disable access to whole or part of any Service in the event of any suspected illegal activity, extended periods of inactivity, or requests by law enforcement or other government agencies. We will also terminate your user account on your request.

In addition, we reserve the right to terminate your user account and deny the Services upon reasonable belief that you have violated the Terms and, in the event any amounts are overdue, to terminate your access to any Beta Service in case of unexpected technical issues or discontinuation of the Beta Service. You have the right to terminate your user account if we breach our obligations under these Terms and in such event, you will be entitled to prorated refund of any prepaid fees. Termination of user account will include denial of access to all Services, deletion of information in your user account such as your email address and password and deletion of all data.

Dispute Resolution, Jurisdiction and Applicable Law

For the sake of clarity any reference to ‘parties’ below shall mean both you and Us.

The parties will use their best efforts to negotiate in good faith and settle any dispute that may arise out of or relate to this Agreement or any breach of it.

If any such dispute cannot be settled amicably through ordinary negotiations between the parties, or either or both is or are unwilling to engage in this process, either party may propose to the other in writing that structured negotiations be entered into with the assistance of a fully accredited mediator before resorting to litigation.

If the parties are unable to agree upon a mediator, or if the mediator agreed upon is unable or unwilling to act and an alternative mediator cannot be agreed, any party may within 14 days of the date of knowledge of either event apply to LawBite to appoint a mediator under the LawBite Mediation Procedure.

Within 14 days of the appointment of the mediator (either by mutual agreement of the parties or by LawBite in accordance with their mediation procedure), the Parties will meet with the mediator to agree the procedure to be adopted for the mediation, unless otherwise agreed between the parties and the mediator.

All negotiations connected with the relevant dispute(s) will be conducted in confidence and without prejudice to the rights of the Parties in any further proceedings.

If the parties agree on a resolution of the dispute at mediation, the agreement shall be reduced to writing and, once signed by the duly authorised representatives of both Parties, shall be final and binding on them.

If the parties fail to resolve the dispute(s) within 60 days (or such longer term as may be agreed between the parties) of the mediator being appointed, or if either party withdraws from the mediation procedure, then either party may exercise any right to seek a remedy through arbitration by an arbitrator to be appointed by LawBite under the Rules of the LawBite Arbitration Scheme.

Any dispute shall not affect the parties’ ongoing obligations under the Agreement.

The English courts will have exclusive jurisdiction over any claim arising from, or related to, a visit to our Site although we retain the right to bring proceedings against you for breach of these conditions in your country of residence or any other relevant country.

These terms of use and any dispute or claim arising out of or in connection with them or their subject matter or formation (including non-contractual disputes or claims) shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the law of England and Wales.
