Introduction

Interactive Memories, Inc. (together with its corporate affiliates, "Montage," "we," "us," "our") provides its online, collaborative publishing services to you through its website located at www.montagebook.com (the "Site") and through its mobile applications and related services (collectively, such services, including any new features and applications, and the Site, the "Service(s)"), subject to these Terms of Service ("Terms of Service" or "Agreement"). By accessing or using the Service, you (the "User") agree that you have read, understand and agree to be bound by these Terms of Service ("Terms of Service" or "Agreement"), whether or not you are a registered member ("Member") of the Service. We reserve the right, at our sole discretion, to change, modify, add, or delete portions of these Terms of Service at any time without notice. If we do this, we will post the changes to these Terms of Service on our Site and will indicate at the top of the Terms of Service the date they were last revised. Any new Terms of Service are effective upon posting and your continued use of the Service after such posting constitutes your acceptance of the new Terms of Service. If you do not agree to abide by these or any future Terms of Service, do not use or access (or continue to use or access) the Service. It is your responsibility to regularly review the Terms of Service to determine if there have been changes.

Please read these Terms of Service carefully as they contain important information regarding your legal rights, remedies and obligations.

Eligibility

By using the Service, you represent and warrant that you are thirteen (13) years old or older.  You must be thirteen (13) years of age or older to register as a member of the Service or access or use the Service. If you are under the age of 13, you must use an account created by a parent, guardian or teacher, and you must have the explicit permission of a parent or guardian to use the Service. Membership in and access to the Service is void where prohibited.

Term

This Agreement shall remain in full force and effect while you use the Services or are a Member. You may have your account deleted by contacting support@montagebook.com. Montage may terminate your membership for any reason, at any time.  Even after termination, your obligations under this Agreement will remain in effect.  You understand that termination of this Agreement and your account may involve deletion of your Montage information from our live databases as well as any Member Content that you have uploaded to the Service or created on the Service using your account.  You agree that Montage will not have liability whatsoever to you for any termination of your account or related deletion of your information or Member Content.

Fees

You acknowledge that Montage reserves the right to charge for Services and to change our fees from time to time in its discretion, upon posting such policy on the Service.  Thereafter, upon using our Services, you will be responsible for the payment of any applicable fees as set forth on the Service.

Eligibility and Credit Card Terms

To order any books or other products, you must be at least eighteen (18) years of age or the applicable age of majority in your jurisdiction. You will be required to give us a valid credit card number (VISA, MasterCard, American Express or any other issuer then accepted by us) and associated payment information at the time you order books or any other products hereunder, including all of the following:

• Your name as it appears on the card
• The credit card type
• The date of expiration of your credit card
• Billing address
• Any activation numbers or codes needed to charge your credit card.

Montage does not accept cash, checks or any other payment form, although it reserves the right to change this policy in the future.  Your credit card issuer agreement governs your use of your designated credit card, and you must refer to that agreement and not this Agreement to determine your rights and liabilities as a cardholder. You agree that no additional notice or consent is required before Montage invoices the credit card for all amounts due and payable. By providing Montage with your credit card number and associated payment information, you agree that Montage is authorized to immediately invoice your account for all fees and charges due and payable to Montage as a result of your purchase of any books or other products. You agree to immediately notify Montage of any change in the credit card used for payment hereunder or in any associated information. Montage reserves the right, at any time, to change its prices and billing methods for books and other products sold, either immediately upon posting on the Service or by e-mail delivery to you.

Montage Credit

Any credit issued to you by Montage has no cash value and is not exchangeable as cash. Montage credit may be redeemed towards future purchases using your Montage account, and your Montage credit will be automatically applied in the checkout process. You can view your Montage credit under your My Account section. Montage credit is valid for 1 year from the date of last purchase, or if the user has not purchased, from the date of registration as a Montage user. If your Montage credit expires, it will be removed from your Montage account.

Fees and Charges

You agree to pay all fees and charges incurred in connection with your orders and purchases (including any taxes imposed on your orders and purchases, including, but not limited to, applicable shipping fees, sales, use or value-added taxes) at the rates in effect when the charges were incurred. Fees charged for goods and services may change at any time without advanced notice. Montage may automatically charge and withhold such fees and charges for orders to be delivered to addresses within any jurisdictions that it deems is required. When you order books or other products for overseas delivery, shipments may be subject to import duties and taxes, which are levied when the package with the books or products arrives at the destination that you specified.  Any charges for customs clearance shall be borne by you, as Montage has no control over such charges and cannot foresee the amount charged (if any). You agree that you are the importer of record for goods and services you order and you shall comply with all laws and regulations of the destination country.

Disputes

You must notify us in writing within seven (7) days after receiving your credit card statement, if you dispute any of our charges on that statement or such dispute will be deemed waived. Such notification shall be sent to the following address: Montage Customer Service, 409 Sherman Ave., Palo Alto, CA 94306, or via email at support@montagebook.com.

Returns

You may return your order for free if you are not 100% satisfied.
