Subscription

Some Content listed and offered by the Company through the Website may be accessed only in case you have a valid and subsisting subscription with the Website (“Subscription Services”). For example, while syndicated Content and news reports listed on the Website may be accessible by registered users for free, access to opinion pieces, long-read stories, commentaries and exclusive features of the Website such as the Deals Database and/or research reports would be available to paid subscribers of the Subscription Services alone. The nature of Content made available as part of the Subscription Services is subject to change, the final decision of which lies with the Company. The Company may vary the access rights of users engaged in accessing the Website without a paid subscription at any time at the Company’s sole discretion. Subscription Services may differ geographically and based on the device from which you subscribe. Subscriptions plans and price may also vary in time. The Company reserves the right to introduce new subscription plans, including without limitation, subscription plans for Organisations and for identified users or classes of users such as students, from time to time. With respect to paid subscribers, any revision of access rights will take effect on the completion of such user’s then-current Subscription Period (defined herein). While the Company assures you that it will make reasonable efforts to process your subscription promptly, it does not guarantee that your subscription will be activated by any specified time. Please be advised that your submission of payment and other subscription details through the Website constitutes an offer from you to us to buy a subscription plan. Your offer will only be accepted by us and a contract formed when we have successfully verified your payment details and email address and received payment authorisation of the applicable Subscription Fees (defined herein), at which point we will provide you with access to your subscription. The Company reserves the right to reject any offer in its discretion, for any or no reason. Subscription Services are non-transferable and non-assignable.

 

Subscription Services are offered to designated individuals in their individual or organisational capacity only, and sharing accounts with multiple people or providing access to the Subscription Services to any other person by you is strictly forbidden and will result in the termination of your subscription without refund. Your user-account is personal to you, and is non-assignable and non-transferrable. Only one natural person may access a user-account and avail of the Subscription Services through such user-account under these Terms. In the event that the Company reasonably determines that more than one person has or is engaged in accessing the Subscription Services through a single user-account, the Company reserves the right to retroactively charge such user-account for each such additional person from the date on which such user account has commenced its subscription till the date that you deactivate your subscription / user account or we terminate the subscription / user account (it being clarified that we are under no obligation to terminate the subscription / user account). Accordingly, for each additional person found or reasonably determined to have accessed the Subscription Services through a single user account, the user account shall be charged as follows:  Subscription Fees x the number  of additional users x number of months from start of subscription till deactivation/termination of Subscription/user account. 

 

Illustration: If your user account starts a subscription on 1 January 2021, and we discover on 1 August 2021 that 3 users other than you accessed your account at any time during those eight months, we can bill you as follows: [3 x 8 x the value of your monthly subscription] in addition to your Subscription Fees for authorised use of the Subscription Services, and can continue to so bill for such additional person’s access till the date that you deactivate your Subscription/user account or we terminate the Subscription/user account .

 

You recognise that such additional charges are a genuine pre-estimate of the loss occasioned to us on account of your breach of these Terms by permitting non-subscribers to access the Subscription Services through your user-account. The remedy set out hereinabove is not exclusive and is in addition to any other right or remedy available hereunder or under law. 

 

Organisational Subscription Plan

The Company may offer subscriptions to which Organisations (entities having a legal identity but not being natural persons, and includes companies, universities, partnership firms, institutes, societies, trusts, associations of persons, or any other bodies) can subscribe for providing their members who are natural persons with access to the Subscription Services (“Organisational Subscription Plan”). The natural person who registers and subscribes to the Organisational Subscription Plan on behalf of any Organisation shall be presumed to have warranted that she possesses the full authority of the Organisation to register and subscribe to the Organisational Subscription Plan on its behalf. At the time of time of subscribing to an Organisational Subscription Plan, the Organisation shall provide us with information including the name, age, email address and place of residence of its members who would be the users who access the Subscription Services under the said Organisational Subscription Plan (“Identified Beneficiaries”). The Organisation disclosing such information about the Identified Beneficiaries will be presumed to have notified the Identified Beneficiaries of the (i) Privacy Policy; (ii) Terms; and (iii) applicable Subscription Terms, and to have obtained the consent of the Identified Beneficiaries for sharing the above information and for the same to be handled in accordance with the Privacy Policy. Additionally, the Organisation shall be directly and solely responsible for (i) limiting the access to the Subscription Services to the Identified Beneficiaries; and (ii) ensuring each of the Identified Beneficiaries complies with these Terms. Provided that where the Organisation fails to ensure compliance with the above, it shall be deemed to have breached these Terms.

We currently offer Organisational Subscription Plans only to Universities, and each such Organisational Subscription Plan is available for only a specified number of students enrolled in graduate and post-graduate programmes (“University Programmes”). We currently offer Organisational Subscription Plans on an annual basis. A single University may subscribe to multiple Organisational Subscription Plans as per its requirements.

Subscription Services for Students

 

Student Plan

We offer users who are natural persons enrolled in University Programmes with recognised Universities (“Students”), subscription to our Subscription Services at discounted rates (“Student Plan”). We currently offer Student Plans on an annual basis. Students desirous of subscribing to the Student Plan are required to register and subscribe to the Student Plan using the email address issued to them by their University. Your offer to buy a Student Plan subscription will only be accepted by us and a contract formed when we have successfully verified your eligibility for the Student Plan, the payment details, the email address and received payment authorisation of the applicable Subscription Fees.

 

Patron Plan

While we encourage Students to utilise our discounted Student Plans, we understand that certain Students, on account of their socioeconomic circumstances, may be unable to afford our Subscription Services. As a result, in collaboration with natural persons and Organisations desirous of funding access to Student Plans to such Students, we have introduced a custom subscription funding plan (“Patron Plan”).

Any natural person or Organisation who funds a Patron Plan (each, a “Patron”) may sponsor a defined number of Student Plans under a Patron Plan. Once we receive the payment for the Patron Plan, we then match the number of Student Plans covered by the Patron. For example, if a Patron funds a Patron Plan that covers the cost of 100 (hundred) Student Plans, we shall offer 100 (hundred) additional Student Plans to Students at no cost. Hence, 200 (two hundred) Students can thus access the Student Plans at no cost.

Students desirous of availing a subscription under a Patron Plan are required to register using the email address issued to them by their University and apply for the Patron Plan by among others, filling an online form. The procedure, in its entirety, for applying for a Patron Plan and for the selection of Students among the applicants shall be made available on the Website, which may be amended from time to time. We may (i) reject any application for a subscription for any or no reason; and (ii) select and allot/not allot subscriptions among the Students who have applied, at our sole and absolute discretion; and (iii) if the number of students/applicants for patron scheme is more than there are available slots, these subscriptions will be awarded on a first-come-first- serve basis, or through any other basis determined by DealStreetAsia.

No Student shall be entitled to claim a subscription as a matter of right and no appeal shall lie against either the Patron or us in relation to any of our acts or omissions in this regard, including without limitation, any acceptance or rejection of an application, any allotment or non-allotment of a subscription, or the termination or discontinuation of the subscriptions under a Patron Plan.

 

Term, Renewal, Cancellation

We currently offer Subscription Services on a monthly, quarterly, annual, biennial and triennial basis, which are subject to change at our sole discretion. You can choose a subscription of any duration (“Subscription Period”) offered at the time of applying for the Subscription Services. These Terms shall remain in full force and effect while you use the Services. Upon expiry of the Subscription Period, the subscription will auto-renew for a period equal to the previously selected Subscription Period. The renewal of your subscription to the Subscription Services shall occur at the then current Subscription Fees for the applicable period, and the same shall be auto-debited using the payment details and instrument stored and associated with your Website account. We will notify you 14 (fourteen) business days prior to the expiry of the Subscription Period of such auto-renewal, which notification shall be issued to the email-address registered with your Website account and the Subscription Fees for such renewal. You may opt out of renewing the subscription by opting out within 7 (seven) business days of receipt of our notification in order to avoid any further billing by us. If you choose to opt out of renewal, your subscription will last till the expiry of the Subscription Period, and not renew further. You are solely responsible for keeping yourself aware and updated of your scheduled renewal of Subscription Period and the Subscription Fees applicable in each case and for maintaining accurate and updated details of your contact information as registered with the Website, and the Company shall not entertain any request, claim or demand of refund or reduction on account of any failure by you in respect of the aforesaid. You do not have any right to cancel or change your subscription or any part of it before expiry of your then current Subscription Period. Although you may notify us of your intention to cancel your subscription at any time, such notice will only take effect at the end of your then current Subscription Period, and you will not receive a refund (except in the limited circumstances set out in these Terms).

You may notify us of your wish to cancel your subscription by contacting our team

The Company reserves the right to suspend or terminate your subscription if you breach these Terms, with or without notice and without further obligation to you. In case of suspension or termination of your subscription for breach of these Terms, we shall not be obligated to you nor shall you claim or demand any refund of Subscription Fees, in part or whole.

If we do so, then we will have no further obligation to you except for a refund of the unexpired period of your paid subscription, which refund would be processed as per applicable law.

If we do this, you may cancel the subscription without any obligation to us and we will refund you any money you have paid us in full, or you may pay the correct price. If you refuse to exercise either of these choices, then we may cancel your subscription and will refund you any money you have paid us in full.
