Subscription Terms

Your subscription begins as soon as your initial payment is processed. Your subscription will automatically renew at the rate stated at the time of purchase, on a recurring basis in accordance with the terms of your subscription. You authorize us to store your payment method(s) and to automatically charge your payment method(s) automatically until you cancel. 

If your primary payment method fails, you authorize us to charge any other payment method in your account. If you have not provided us with a backup payment method(s) and you fail to provide payment – or if all payment methods in your account fail – we may suspend your subscription. 


Cancellation terms

You can cancel your future recurring subscription billings at any time before your next bill date (we do not offer refunds if you have been already billed*).

*Monthly Subscribers (Student PRO License): You must confirm your cancellation prior to your next billing date if you do not want to get billed again. If you confirm your cancellation after you’ve already been billed, your subscription will not end until the following month.

*Annual Subscribers, Paid Monthly (Standard/Premium/TEAM annual, paid monthly licenses): If you decide to cancel at any time in the middle of your subscription period, you will continue to be billed on a monthly basis until your one-year contract ends, and it will not renew again.

*Annual/3/5-year Subscribers, Prepaid: If you decide to cancel at any time in the middle of your subscription period, you will continue to receive the rest of your prepaid subscription until it runs out, and it will not renew again.


Upgrade and Downgrade

Upgrading your EMOTIV subscription creates an immediate change to your license, where you can use the new features straight away. Because of this, you’re billed for the difference between the subscription plans for the remainder of the billing month on a pro-rata basis. The pro-rata amount will be calculated from the upgrade date to the end of the regular billing cycle. Once that billing cycle has ended, you will be charged the new amount for your subscription on your regular billing date.

If you decide to downgrade your subscription, your downgrade will go into effect on your subscription’s next billing date, you will then lose access to all of the subscription features and metrics included in the higher level plan. You can find a list of what’s included with each plan level in the table on the EmotivPRO.

Return Policy

If you believe that the Product does not meet the Limited Warranty: Please contact Emotiv to obtain a Return Material Authorization (RMA) number, shipping address and instructions.

Returned Neuroheadsets must be packed in the original, unmarked packaging including any accessories, manuals, documentation and registration that was included with the headset. Please include a description of the problem. You must prepay all shipping charges, and Emotiv recommends that you (1) use a carrier that offers shipment tracking for all returns and (2) either insure your package for safe return to Emotiv or declare the full value of the shipment so that you are completely protected if the shipment is lost or damaged in transit. You are fully responsible for any loss or damage to the Product during shipping.

Remedy

Emotiv’s sole obligation, and your sole remedy, for a breach of the Limited Warranty shall be as described in this Section 1(c). Emotiv shall determine in its sole discretion whether the Product contains a material or workmanship problem. If so determined, Emotiv shall in its sole discretion: (i) repair the Product using new or refurbished parts, (ii) replace the Product with a new or refurbished Product or (iii) refund to you the amount you paid for the Product based on your original method of payment. For the purposes of this Limited Warranty, “refurbished” means a Product or part that has been returned to its original specifications. Replaced parts and exchanged Products will become the property of Emotiv. The Limited Warranty gives you specific legal rights and you may have other rights which vary by jurisdiction.

Warranty Disclaimer

EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY SET FORTH IN THIS WARRANTY AND RETURN POLICY, THE PRODUCT AND ALL SERVICES ARE PROVIDED “AS IS”. NEITHER EMOTIV NOR ITS SUPPLIERS MAKES ANY OTHER WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, STATUTORY OR OTHERWISE, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, TITLE, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE OR NONINFRINGEMENT. YOU MAY HAVE OTHER STATUTORY RIGHTS. HOWEVER, TO THE FULL EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, THE DURATION OF STATUTORILY REQUIRED WARRANTIES, IF ANY, SHALL BE LIMITED TO THE LIMITED WARRANTY PERIOD.

Limitation of Liability

NEITHER PARTY SHALL BE LIABLE FOR ANY LOSS OF USE, LOST DATA, FAILURE OF SECURITY MECHANISMS, INTERRUPTION OF BUSINESS, OR ANY INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES OF ANY KIND (INCLUDING LOST PROFITS), REGARDLESS OF THE FORM OF ACTION, WHETHER IN CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), STRICT LIABILITY OR OTHERWISE, EVEN IF INFORMED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES IN ADVANCE. NOTWITHSTANDING ANY OTHER PROVISION OF THIS WARRANTY AND RETURN POLICY, EMOTIV’S AND ITS SUPPLIERS’ ENTIRE LIABILITY TO YOU SHALL NOT EXCEED THE AMOUNT ACTUALLY PAID BY YOU TO EMOTIV FOR THE PRODUCT. The parties agree that the limitations specified in this Section 4 will survive and apply even if any limited remedy specified herein is found to have failed of its essential purpose. Some jurisdictions do not allow limitations on how long an implied warranty lasts, or allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages, so the above limitations or exclusions may not apply to you.
