Communications
By creating an Account (which includes signing up for a username and password for personal log-in to a private membership area) on our Service, you agree to subscribe to newsletters, marketing or promotional materials and other information we may send. You may also subscribe to our newsletters and e-mails without creating an Account. You may opt out of receiving any, and all, of these communications from us by following the unsubscribe link and instructions provided at the bottom of any email we send.
Your Content
Our Service allows you to post, link, store, share and otherwise make available certain information, text, graphics, videos, or other material (“Content”) in both public forums and private membership areas. Under both scenarios, you are responsible for the Content that you post on or through the Service, including its legality, reliability, and appropriateness. This service shall not be used for any submission, storage, retrieval, or distribution of pornographic content in any form.
By posting Content on or through the Service, you represent and warrant that: (i) the Content is yours (you own it) and/or you have the right to use it and the right to grant us the rights and license as provided in these Terms, (ii) the posting of your Content on or through the Service does not violate the privacy rights, publicity rights, copyrights, contract rights or any other rights of any person or entity, and (iii) you agree to defend against and indemnify us from any and all third-party claims or complaints related to such materials.

You agree to accept responsibility for any and all activities or actions that occur under your account and/or password, whether your password is with our Service or a third-party service. You must notify us immediately upon becoming aware of any breach of security or unauthorized use of your account.
We reserve the right to refuse service, terminate accounts, remove or edit public content in our sole discretion.
Payments & Refunds
TextMyJournal will charge according to the user’s selected recurring plan. The payment term begins the first day following the free trial. A user who enters payment information on account billing page authorizes TextMyJournal to withdraw funds according to agreement. Failure to make the proper payment will result in suspension of the user’s account. In the event that the account is suspended, the user will still be able to access previous content.
If paying by debit card, or credit card, you give us permission to automatically charge your credit or debit card as payment for your Program, Product, or Service without any additional authorization, for which you will receive an electronic receipt.
In the event that payment is not received by the date due, you will have a three (3) day grace period to make the payment. If payment is not received, you will still retain access to the Content you submitted to the Account but will not be able to add Content or receive prompts unless and until payment is renewed.
If you fail to make payment in a timely manner in accordance with these Terms of Use or voluntarily decide to withdraw from our Programs, Products, or Services at any time or for any reason whatsoever, you still will remain fully responsible for the full cost of the services used.
All information obtained during your purchase or transaction for our Services and all of the information that you give as part of the transaction, such as your name, address, method of payment, credit card number, and billing information, may be collected by both us and our payment processing company.
You agree to only purchase goods or services for yourself or for another person for whom you are legally permitted to do so, or for whom you have obtained the express consent to provide their name, address, method of payment, credit card number, and billing information.
You agree to be financially responsible for all purchases made by you or someone acting on your behalf. You agree to use our Services for legitimate, non-commercial purposes only and not for speculative, false, fraudulent, or illegal purposes.
Since we have outlined a procedure in which to submit a refund request, we do not tolerate or accept any type of chargeback threat or actual chargeback from your credit card company. In the event that a chargeback is placed on a purchase or we receive a chargeback threat during or after your purchase, we reserve the right to report the incident to all three credit reporting agencies or to any other entity for inclusion in any chargeback database or for listing as a delinquent account which could have a negative impact on your credit report score. The information reported will include your name, email address, order date, order amount, and billing address. Chargeback abusers wishing to be removed from the database shall make the payment for the amount of the chargeback.

If you wish to terminate your account, you may simply discontinue using the Service through the “Cancel Subscription” button at the bottom of the billing page within your account. If subscription is cancelled, services will continue through the end of the billing cycle.
If you desire service to cease service immediately, you must text “stop” or “cancel” to the phone number from which you receive prompts, in addition to following the steps for cancellation as described above. No refund will be offered.
If services have not been delivered as promised, a refund may be requested within 30 days by emailing [email protected]. An email request does not guarantee a refund. Each email will be reviewed individually and TextMyJournal has sole discretion in determining whether to issue a refund in whole or part.
