Northwind Enterprises, LLC & Scout-N-Hunt Mobile Hunting Maps Products Terms and Conditions
Identification of Roles and Use of Maps:
Northwind Enterprises, LLC (“Northwind Enterprises”) is the creator and provider of the Scout-N-Hunt Mobile Maps (“the Maps”). The Subscriber (“you” or “the Subscriber”) is the individual who has purchased a license to use the Maps. By purchasing, accessing, or using the Maps, you agree to the terms and conditions outlined in this Agreement. Any use of the Maps outside the scope of this Agreement is a direct violation of the terms and conditions set forth herein. Unauthorized use of the Maps by any individual or entity other than the Subscriber is strictly prohibited. Such unauthorized use constitutes a breach of this Agreement and may subject the unauthorized user to legal liability, including but not limited to liability for damages, losses, or other legal remedies available under applicable law. If found in violation of these terms, Northwind Enterprises reserves the right to immediately cancel the subscription without notice or refund. Northwind Enterprises further reserves the right to pursue all legal remedies available, including injunctive relief, against any party that engages in unauthorized use of the Maps. The Subscriber is responsible for ensuring that the Maps are used solely in accordance with this Agreement and that no third party is granted access to or use of the Maps in violation of these terms.
Payment Terms:
By purchasing a subscription to Scout-N-Hunt Mobile Maps, the Subscriber agrees to pay the subscription fee in full at the beginning of each subscription period. The subscription fee will be automatically charged to the payment method provided by the Subscriber at the time of purchase or as updated by the Subscriber in their account settings.
Automatic Renewal:
The subscription will automatically renew on the anniversary date of the initial purchase each year unless the Subscriber cancels the subscription before the renewal date. The renewal fee will be charged at the then-current rate, and the Subscriber will be notified of any changes in the subscription fee prior to renewal.
Payment Method:
It is the Subscriber’s responsibility to ensure that the payment method on file is current, valid, and has sufficient funds to cover the subscription fee. If a payment is declined or fails for any
reason, Northwind Enterprises, LLC reserves the right to suspend access to the Maps until the payment is successfully processed. The Subscriber may be required to update their payment information to restore access to the Maps.
Failed Payments:
If payment is not successfully received on the anniversary date, Northwind Enterprises, LLC will attempt to process the payment again. If payment continues to fail, the Subscriber’s access to
the Maps may be suspended or terminated at Northwind Enterprises, LLC’s discretion. The Subscriber is responsible for any fees or charges incurred due to failed payment attempts, including but not limited to bank fees or penalties.
Disputes:
Any disputes regarding charges must be raised with Northwind Enterprises, LLC within 10 days of the charge being posted to the Subscriber’s account. The Subscriber must contact Northwind Enterprises, LLC directly before initiating a dispute with their bank or credit card provider. Failure to do so may result in a delay or forfeiture of any potential resolution. Northwind Enterprises, LLC will review and respond to all payment disputes in accordance with its policies.
Refunds:
As outlined in the Refund section of this Agreement, no refunds will be provided on or before the anniversary date of the initial purchase or during the subscription period once the Maps have been downloaded and accessed.
Refund:
The mobile maps are digital and become accessible to you immediately upon purchase. Once purchased these maps are non-refundable and cannot be returned. Customers are entirely responsible for managing their subscription, including canceling before the anniversary date if they no longer wish to continue using the product. No refunds will be provided on or before the anniversary date or during the subscription period. If the subscription is not canceled before the anniversary date, the subscription fee for the following year will be charged. Access to the product will continue until the end of the paid period.
Subscription and Cancellation:
The term of this Agreement will begin on the purchase date of the mobile map and continue for 12 months. It is the customer’s sole responsibility to manage their subscription, including manually canceling or downgrading the subscription before the anniversary date if they wish to avoid renewal or switch to a Single-State plan.
If a subscriber does not want to renew the All-State package, they must downgrade to a Single-State subscription before the renewal date. Otherwise, the credit card on file will automatically be processed at the All-State package price on the anniversary date.
No refunds will be provided on or before the anniversary date or during the subscription period.
Since the product is accessible immediately upon purchase to download, no refunds will be issued after the anniversary date.
Continued use of the product without payment after the renewal will lead to the termination of access.
If a subscriber initially purchases the All-State product, which includes maps of every state we offer, and then downgrades to a Single-State subscription, no refunds or price adjustments will be provided. Access to the entire map collection, including the Single-State map, has already been granted.
Managing Your Subscription:
