Without limiting the foregoing, the Service is not designed or licensed for use in hazardous environments requiring fail-safe controls, including without limitation operation of nuclear facilities, aircraft navigation/communication systems, air traffic control, and life support or weapons systems.

Unless explicitly stated otherwise, any new features that augment or enhance the current Service, including the release of new tools and resources, shall be subject to the Agreement. In order to use the Service, You must obtain access to the World Wide Web, either directly or through devices that access web-based content, and pay any service fees associated with such access. In addition, You must provide all equipment necessary to make such connection to the World Wide Web, including a computer and modem or other access device. You also understand and agree that the service may include certain communications from Arusha Software, such as service announcements, administrative messages, etc., and that these communications are considered part of the Service and You will not be able to opt out of receiving them. You agree not to access the Service by any means other than through the interfaces that are provided by Arusha Software for use in accessing the Service. Arusha Software will provide the Service in accordance with this Agreement. Arusha Software may at its sole discretion modify the features of the Service from time to time without prior notice in order to improve the Service.

In order to use the Service, You must have a valid Account. To acquire an Account for the Service, You must provide Arusha Software with an electronic mail address and other information ("Registration Data"). You will choose an account designation for Your Account during the Service's registration process. You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of the access data for Your Account, and are fully responsible for all activities that occur under Your Account. You agree to (a) immediately notify Arusha Software of any unauthorized use of Your Account or any other breach of security, and (b) ensure that You exit from Your Account at the end of each session.

In consideration of use of the Service, You agree to: (a) provide true, accurate, current and complete information about Yourself as prompted by the Service's registration form, and (b) maintain and promptly update the Registration Data to keep it true, accurate, current and complete. Arusha Software assumes no duty to verify such information as further detailed in CONTENT OF THE SERVICE. If You provide any information that is untrue, inaccurate, not current or incomplete, or Arusha Software has reasonable grounds to suspect that such information is untrue, inaccurate, not current or incomplete, Arusha Software has the right to suspend or terminate Your Account and refuse any and all current or future use of the Service (or any portion thereof). If You are under 18 years of age then You are required to have a parent or guardian review and complete the registration process on your behalf.

BILLING/PAYMENT TERMS

After You signup for the service, Arusha Software will contact you via electronic mail, telephone or in person to discuss your prefered payment mechanism. Cash, Mobile money and bank/wire transfers are the only payment mechanism Arusha Software will accept for payment of a monthly, quarterly or annual subscription fee ("Subscription Fee") for the Service. All currency references are in Tanzanian Shilings.

You may, through a mechanism Arusha Software provides as part of Your Account, define Users. You may define Users as "Inactive Users" (Users without permission to access Your Account) and "Active Users" (Users with permission to log in to Your Account using a password).

When registering for the service, you shall choose one of the Account plan types provided: If You choose a plan, You shall pay fees (described in the plan) to Arusha Software on a monthly, quarterly or annual basis as indicated on the plan.

The cost of a Subscription Fee for a Paid Account (the "Monthly Fee", "Quartely Fee" or "Annual Fee") shall be calculated based on the active plan as shown on your account.

Based on the plan You choose, Arusha Software will send you an invoice via electronic mail by which you will be required to pay the subscription fee within 7 days of receiving it. Arusha Software will end customer access to the Service unless Arusha Software has received cash, mobile money payment or bank/wire transfer payment information and been able to use it for the payment of the Subscription Fee (see "Termination, Breach, Suspension and Cancellation" below).

If You sign up for Your Account on a day other than the first day of a Month, or if You terminate the Service in the middle of a Month, the Monthly Fee for that Month of service will be pro-rated in accordance with the number of complete days during that Month when You could have used the Service, irrespective of whether You actually used the Service or not.

As long as Your Account remains active and in good standing, You will be charged the Monthly, Quarterly or Annual Fee even if You never use the service. You may, however, cancel Your Account at any time.

Arusha Software will contact You via electronic mail to issue you with a Cash Receipt and alert You upon receiving each payment. Arusha Software may change prices at any time without prior notice, but will endeavor to provide reasonable advance notice via Your Account website and/or electronic mail. You agree that in the event Arusha Software is unable to collect the fees owed to Arusha Software for Your Account through Your Subscription Fee, Arusha Software may take any other steps it deems necessary to collect such fees from You and that You will be responsible for all costs and expenses incurred by Arusha Software in connection with such collection activity, including collection fees, court costs and attorneys' fees.

Arusha Software will provide Support, including any upgrades that Arusha Software releases for Reportbase or the Service, for Your Account at no additional cost.

TERMINATION, BREACH, SUSPENSION AND CANCELLATION

If Your Monthly, Quarterly or Annual Fee payment is overdue, or if Your Trial Period has expired and You have chosen an account and Arusha Software has not yet received your contact information portion of Your Registration Data, Arusha Software may disable Your access and Your Users' access to Your Account. If Your Subscription Fee payment is more than 30 calendar days overdue, and You have not paid Your Subscription Fee, Arusha Software may suspend or terminate Your account. Arusha Software may also, at its sole discretion, at any time and for any reason, terminate the Service, terminate this Agreement, or suspend or terminate Your Account. In the event of suspension or termination, Your account will be disabled and You may not be granted access to Your Account or any files or other Content contained in Your Account, and Arusha Software may delete Your Content, although residual copies of information may remain in our system for some time for back-up purposes.

If You terminate Your Account, via means provided for cancellation on the Arusha Software Reportbase website or in Your Account, or via telephone call or electronic mail to Arusha Software, and You request that Arusha Software delete Content and files contained in Your Account, Arusha Software will make all reasonable efforts to do so.

REFUND

Arusha Software provides means for Account cancellation on Your Reportbase Account page. Arusha Software will not refund any payments for the monthly or Quartely subscription accounts. If You have chosen an annual subscription method and you cancel Your Account and request a refund, Arusha Software will refund the amount remaining on your account after deducting the cost of using Reportbase prior to the cancellation and refund request.
