About Our Platform
The Completix Platform is an online project management platform that allows you and your team to collaborate online and manage various types of projects. Projects are managed via a designated project management site on our platform. We offer various account types to access sites, with one account for each project website being designated as a site owner (“Site Owner”). The Site Owner who can add and remove other users from the project site. If you are the person who established a project site, and are therefore a Site Owner (or subsequently become designated as the Site Owner) in respect of any single project on the Completix Platform, you are responsible for the payment of each end-user account license you, or any co-administrator account, adds to the project site. The Site Owner, or the applicable co-administrator can add and remove account licenses from within their account by inviting other users to the site.
For greater certainty, these Terms apply to you whether you operate as a Site Owner, or any other account used to access the Completix Platform.
Establishing an Account
To use the Completix Platform you will be required to register an account and provide certain personal information as referenced in our privacy policy.
Regardless of whether you pay for your account directly or not, you agree that access to your account constitutes good and valuable consideration in exchange for agreeing to these Terms our privacy policy and all other documents and policies incorporated by reference.
Upon establishing an account, we grant you a non-transferable, non-exclusive license to access the Completix Platform, via your account, in accordance with these Terms. However, we reserve the right to suspend or revoke that license and your access to the Completix Platform in the event (i) you or the applicable Site Owner fails to pay the fees associated with your account (as updated from time to time); or (ii) you, or another user associated with your project(s), are in breach of these Terms; or (iii) we reasonably suspect you or another user associated with your project(s) are in breach of these Terms.
We make no representations or warranties as to the ongoing availability of the Completix Platform, or your access to it. Accordingly, we may also remove your account access if we no longer offer the Completix Platform.
We may also suspend or terminate your account access if we reasonably believe your account has been access by an unauthorized third-party.
If we suspend or terminate your account, the Site Owner associated with your project shall be required to pay for the account, on a pro-rated basis, up to the date the account was last made available for use. Aside from such situations, you agree that we do not offer account refunds, regardless of whether payment for such account(s) was made on a monthly, quarterly or annual basis.
Account Not Transferrable
Access to your account is not transferrable and is only intended for you, the individual who established the account, even if your account is paid for or made accessible to you by an organization (such as your employer or other third party).
Account Security
Upon setting up an account, you will be required to create a password. You are responsible for safeguarding the password you use to access the Completix Platform and you agree not to disclose your password to any third-party.
You agree to use a unique password for your account which you do not use for any other online service. As we, or our third party providers, may send password reset notices and links to your email account registered on the Completix Platform (i) you are responsible for ensuring that your email address associated with your account is accurate; and (ii) you represent and warrant to us, and agree that you will ensure, you are the sole person, at all times, with access to the email account registered in connection with your account.
You agree you are responsible for any activity on your account and all correspondence provided to us from any email address used to register your account, whether or not you authorized that activity or correspondence. You agree that we are, in respect of any instructions or actions taken by a person using your account, entitled to assume that the person is you; the person who established the account and whose personal information is registered and associated with the account.

We may, but have no obligation to, remove or suspend users from the Completix Platform that we determine, in our sole discretion, to have, or which may reasonably appear to have, violated these Terms.
Fees
Our fees for using the Completix Platform are displayed online at https://www.completix.com/pricing. We may also quote enterprise level fees to you directly and require you to enter an additional enterprise level agreement. In the absence of such an enterprise level agreement, if you are the designated Site Owner, you agree to pay all fees and taxes associated with or arising from your account and each of the additional end-user account licenses you, or your co-administrators, add to your project sites. You further agree that we are authorized to automatically bill your payment method for all account fees and to automatically renew your accounts, using our payment processors, for any and all account licenses, service fees and automated account renewals.
Our fees are subject to change, however, we agree to provide you with a minimum of 30 days’ notice of any such changes via email. Pricing changes will only apply to future account billing, on a per user basis, for subsequent account renewals (whether you pay to access your account(s) on a monthly, quarterly or annual basis) and will also apply to the fees payable in respect of additional end-user accounts added to a project.
Payment for each user’s access to the Completix Platform is due in advance of each monthly, quarterly or annual billing cycle, as applicable. If the applicable Site Owner’s payment method is declined or is otherwise not provided, you agree that we may suspend your account until such payment is made.
We may also offer data migration services, implementation services and other support services for additional fees. Such fees may be quoted separately, whether in an email or other written correspondence. Upon your acceptance of any such quote, whether by email or otherwise, you agree to pay all such fees.
Additional terms related to pricing and payment may be specified on the Completix Platform. Those terms, as amended from time to time, are incorporated by reference and form part of this agreement.
No Refunds
Unless we have billed you in error, all charges are final and non-refundable, including payments made in respect of each end-user account license, setup fees, and other services charges.
Taxes
All fees (for both account licenses and any services we may provide) are subject to the addition of sales and other applicable taxes.
Cancelling an Account License
From within their account, the applicable Site Owner may elect to not renew all or any of their end-user accounts associated with a project at the end of any then current monthly, quarterly or annual billing cycle, as applicable. The Site Owner is permitted to cancel such account licenses any time prior to the next automatic renewal date. The automatic renewal date is based upon whether you (and each applicable end-user account) subscribe to the platform on a monthly, quarterly or annual basis. If the applicable Site Owner elects not to renew your account, you agree and acknowledge that your account will no longer be able to access the applicable project site.
