Charges from Getsitecontrol will appear on your bank statement as BLS
*
Getsitecontrol or GWC*
Getsitecontrol.com.All paid subscriptions will automatically renew for the same term, monthly or annually, using the payment method on file unless you change or discontinue the Service. If you are not using the service, we will not consider it as a discontinuance of the Service. To discontinue the Service, please notify of this by changing your subscription plan in the Billing section of your account.
Price is based on the selected subscription plan and the number of websites added to the account, regardless of the number of widgets active during the period of subscription and the number of extra users added to the account.
All upgrades and downgrades are effective immediately.

If you cancel the Services, your cancellation takes effect immediately. You will not be entitled to any refund of any unused part of your payment for the Services.
Payment Processing Terms
We use payment platforms provided by globally accepted third-party payment processors. Accordingly, the processing of payments will be subject to the fees, terms, conditions and privacy policies of such payment processors. Getsitecontrol is not responsible for any and all errors, fees and currency conversion fees by the payment processors.
Such third-party payment transaction processors have enacted their own terms of use, user agreements and privacy policies, which will govern their provision of services to you in respect to the information we are required to provide to them for your purchase-related transactions. For these providers, we recommend that you read their terms and conditions and their privacy policies so you can understand the manner in which your personal information will be handled by these providers.
If you elect to use a direct payment gateway in order to complete your purchase, then the third-party payment processors will collect and store credit card data. Your purchase transaction data will only be stored as long as it is necessary to complete your transaction with us. After such order or transaction is complete, your purchase transaction information will be deleted.
Disputes & Chargebacks
You must provide us with valid and current billing information. Except as expressly set forth herein, all payment charges are final and non-cancelable. If we detect any chargeback or if any payment is not received by us or our payment processors for any reason, you will promptly pay us any and all amounts due to us upon notice. Any failure or inability by us to process any payment hereunder does not relieve you from your payment obligations.
A chargeback is typically caused by a situation when a customer disputes a charge that appears on their bank or payment processing statement. A chargeback may result in the reversal of a transaction, with the amount charged back to you. You can be assessed chargebacks for: (i) customer disputes; (ii) unauthorized or improperly authorized transactions; (iii) transactions that do not comply with payment processor network rules or are allegedly unlawful or suspicious; or (iv) any reversals for any reason by our payment processor or the institutions handling the transaction.
When a chargeback is issued, you are immediately liable to Getwebcraft for the full amount of payment of the chargeback, plus any associated fees, fines, expenses or penalties (including those assessed by our payment processor or the financial institutions handling the transaction). Accordingly, you hereby represent and warrant that you expressly appoint Getwebcraft as your agent, with full power to recover these amounts by debiting your account or setting off any amounts owed to you by us.
