INDIVIDUAL USER SUBSCRIPTION AGREEMENT FOR PAID INDIVIDUAL SUBSCRIBERS

By purchasing an individual subscription on this website owned and operated by Lexipol, you are gaining access to Lexipol’s network of websites and platforms (including but not limited to Corrections1 Academy, EMS1 Academy, FireRescue1 Academy, LocalGov Academy and PoliceOne Academy), agree to receive services from Lexipol subject to the following Terms of Service (“TOS”), which may be updated by us from time to time without notice to you. You can review the most current version of the TOS at any time. In addition, when using particular Lexipol services, you shall be subject to any posted guidelines applicable to such services. All such guidelines are hereby incorporated by reference into the TOS.

The initial term of this Agreement shall be a set duration of months or years (the “Initial Term”), selected by the Individual User during purchase, commencing on the date of purchase.

During the Term, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, and solely for your personal purposes, Lexipol grants you a right to access and use our Services for the Individual Subscription purchased, and support, if applicable, in accordance with the plan you selected.

At the expiration of the Initial Term, this Agreement will automatically renew for a successive period of months or years ( each a “Renewal Term” and collectively with the Initial Term the “Term”) equal in duration to the Initial Term originally selected by the Individual User, unless the Individual User provides Lexipol with notice of its intent not to renew this Agreement or unsubscribes online prior to the expiration of the then current term.

For paid Services purchased online (“Online Services”), you must provide Lexipol with a valid credit card to pay for such services. Provided credit card will be charged with the amount depending on the contract plan selected.

Lexipol does not support all payment methods, currencies, or locations for payment.

There is no cancellation during the Initial Term nor during the Renewal Term. Contract will be up for optional renewal at the end of the Initial Term agreement selected by the Individual User or the current Renewal Term, at which point the subsequent Renewal Term is again a subscription of duration equal to the Initial Term with no cancellation.

Client agrees to pay for all costs of collection, including but not limited to, reasonable attorney fees and other fees made necessary by nonpayment. Publisher reserves the right to suspend all services until payment is received in full and may terminate this agreement at their discretion if Client fails to comply with the terms agreement. Accounts over 28 days past due shall be charged a twenty-five dollar ($25.00) late fee and one and one- half percent (1.5%) monthly service charge on the unpaid balance thereafter.

Your FireRescue1 Account Information and FireRescue1 Profile are password-protected so that you and only you have access to this personal information. You may edit your FireRescue1 Account Information and FireRescue1 Profile by using your FireRescue1 ID and password.

We recommend that you do not divulge your password to anyone. FireRescue1 will never ask you for your password in an unsolicited phone call or in an unsolicited email. Also remember to sign out of your FireRescue1 account and close your browser window when you have finished your work. This is to ensure that others cannot access your personal information and correspondence if you share a computer with someone else or are using a computer in a public place like a library or Internet cafe.

Unfortunately, no data transmission over the Internet can be guaranteed to be 100% secure. As a result, while we strive to protect your personal information, FireRescue1 cannot ensure or warrant the security of any information you transmit to us or from our online products or services, and you do so at your own risk. Once we receive your transmission, we make our best effort to ensure its security on our systems.

WHAT SECURITY PRECAUTIONS ARE IN PLACE TO PROTECT THE IDENTITY AND SECURITY OF LAW ENFORCEMENT OFFICIALS ON FIRERESCUE1?

FireRescue1 has taken several precautions to protect the identity, account names and passwords of officers when they register and log on to FireRescue1.com. All transfer of registration and login information is encrypted using Secure Socket Layer (SSL). Unfortunately, this process cannot be 100% secure and FireRescue1 is not responsible for the misuse of these user names and passwords. Despite all of our precautions, you use FireRescue1 at your own risk.

We periodically post member testimonials on FireRescue1 which may contain personal information such as the member’s username. We do obtain the member’s consent prior to posting each testimonial.
