1. SCHEMATIQ SERVICES

The Service, Deadlinewatch, is a deadline-tracking web application operated by SchematIQ. The Service allows registered users to record due dates and related details in order to view them as a chronological list and, separately, in a calendar-based workload view.

The Service is a personal productivity and reminder aid intended to help you keep track of your own deadlines. For more information on the Service please refer to our Website or contact us through our contact form.

2. ACCOUNTS

2.1 Access and Creation. The Service is provided primarily through our Platform, which provides you with the ability to register an account (“Account”) directly, or indirectly through a third-party single sign-on (for example, your Google or GitHub account) or a one-time email “magic link”. Sign-in is passwordless and SchematIQ does not create or store any passwords as part of the Service. In order to register an Account on the Platform or otherwise use certain features of the Service, you must be: (i) at least 18 years old; (ii) resident in Canada and/or the United States of America; and (iii) legally authorized to enter into a contract with SchematIQ.

2.2 Accounts. Accounts are individual accounts and are intended for use by a single user in order to personally access and use the Service (each, an “Account”).

4.3 Your Content Responsibilities. You are solely responsible for the content you enter into the Service. By using the Service you agree not to enter into any free-text field (including any deadline title, note, checklist item or stream label) any sensitive or special-category personal information (for example, health information, financial information, government-identifiers, or biometric information), or any personal information about another person that you are not authorized to provide. You may enter such information where you have received adequate and legal consent to disclose such information into the Service and by doing so you represent and warrant to SchematIQ that you have obtained the legal right to disclose such information. By continuing to use the Service you acknowledge and agree that SchematIQ is not responsible or liable for the third-party information you submit, upload or otherwise share to the Service.

4.4 Excess Usage. SchematIQ reserves the right to monitor and reasonably restrict your ability to use the Service if using excessive computing resources impacting performance of the Service for SchematIQ and/or other users, as determined by SchematIQ acting reasonably. SchematIQ shall provide you with prior written notification in cases where it restricts such use and employ good faith efforts to determine an appropriate alternative or workaround solution prior to restricting your ability to use the Service.

4.5 Availability. The Service may be unavailable due to maintenance or unforeseen cause beyond SchematIQ’s reasonable control, including but not limited to, internet service provider issues, power or communications network failures, denial of service attacks or similar attacks, or any force majeure events. Such Service unavailability does not constitute a breach of the Agreement. SchematIQ disclaims all liability relating to Service unavailability.

4.6 Third-Party Services. The Service relies on certain third-party services, including third-party sign-in providers (for example, Google and GitHub) and a third-party payment processor (Stripe) (collectively, “Third-Party Services”). This Agreement does not grant any license, right, title or interest in Third-Party Services, and your use of them may be governed by separate terms between you and the relevant third party, which you are solely responsible for reviewing. Where you use a Third-Party Service to sign in or to pay, SchematIQ may exchange with that provider the limited information needed to authenticate you or process payment, as described in our Privacy Policy. SchematIQ does not control, and is not responsible for, Third-Party Services, and such services (or SchematIQ’s integration with them) may change or end at any time without notice or compensation to you.

4.7 Privacy Policy. Use of the Service is governed by a Privacy Policy detailing how SchematIQ collects, uses and discloses personal and anonymous data about you, available here, as updated on one or more occasions. You are responsible for reading the Privacy Policy. If you disagree with SchematIQ’s then-current Privacy Policy, you must immediately stop using the Service and contact SchematIQ at contact@deadlinewatch.com.

5. FEES & PAYMENT

5.1 Subscription Service Plan. The Service is offered as a single paid Subscription at the rate currently specified on the Platform, the Website or your Account, and which may be charged to you on a monthly or annual basis at your choice. New Account Subscriptions are entitled to a 14-day free trial period that does not require you to submit payment information. If you proceed with a free trial and no payment method is added by the end of the trial, the Subscription does not begin and you will not be charged. Please note that free trials are limited to one per person and you are not permitted to use multiple emails to sign up for more than one free trial. Pricing and rates are subject to adjustment, for current up to date information, please refer to the Platform, Website, or your Account. Existing users with a paid Subscription will be notified of any increase to the fees associated with their Subscription prior to a Renewal Term (defined below).

5.2 Fee Payment and Automatic Renewal. You shall pay SchematIQ the Subscription fee for your selected billing period (“Subscription Fee”), together with any applicable taxes. Billing is handled by our third-party payment processors and SchematIQ does not store your full card details. If you elect to pay by card or such other method provided to you to process electronic payments on the Service, you hereby authorize SchematIQ and our third-party payment processors to charge the payment method you provide for all fees owed. You represent and warrant that you are authorized to use the payment method and that the information you provide is true, correct and complete. Please note that your Subscription automatically renews. Unless you cancel before the end of the then-current billing period, your Subscription will automatically renew for successive periods of the same length (each, a “Renewal Term”), and SchematIQ (through our third-party partners) will automatically charge the then-current Subscription Fee to your payment method at the start of each Renewal Term, until you cancel. You may cancel at any time as described in the terms of the Cancellation Section below, and cancellation takes effect at the end of the then-current billing period. Where required by applicable law, SchematIQ will provide clear disclosure of these automatic-renewal terms before you subscribe, send a reminder notice before an annual Subscription renews, and provide a means to cancel online. SchematIQ may change the Subscription Fee on at least 30 days’ prior notice before the start of a Renewal Term. Subscription Fees are non-refundable except as expressly stated in this Agreement or as required by applicable law. If your payment method changes, expires, or is declined, SchematIQ may suspend or terminate your access to the paid Service.

5.3 Changing Your Plan. Where permitted by your Subscription and/or the options in your Account, you may switch between monthly and annual billing from your Account. A change to annual billing takes effect immediately or at your next renewal, as indicated at the time of the change; a change to monthly billing takes effect at the end of your current billing period. Any resulting change in the Subscription Fee is applied on a going-forward basis.

5.4 Cancellation, Deletion, Access. You may cancel your Subscription at any time from your Account or the billing portal. When your paid Subscription ends (whether because you cancel or because a free trial ends without a paid subscription starting), your Account does not immediately terminate; instead it becomes read-only, meaning you can sign in, view and export your data but cannot create or edit deadlines. Following a read-only period of approximately 30 days, the Account moves to an export-only period of approximately a further 30 days, after which the Account and its associated content are permanently deleted (approximately 60 days after the paid Subscription ends). You may also delete your Account at any time. You remain liable for all fees accrued up to the end of your then-current billing period and will not receive a refund for any Subscription Fee already paid, except as required by applicable law. At each readable stage you may export a full copy of your deadline data. Further information on data retention and deletion is set out in our Privacy Policy.

5.5 Referrals. For users with a paid Subscription, SchematIQ may offer you a unique personal referral link which you can share with friends, family, colleagues and anyone else who you think may enjoy using the Service. As part of SchematIQ’s referral program, each time you refer a new user to the Service and such user signs up for a paid Subscription (and remains a paid subscriber for a qualifying period as further described in your Account), you will be eligible for reward. Referral rewards currently include credits attributed to your Account to cover your Subscription for a particular period. Rewards are: (i) limited to one per referred user; (ii) have no cash value and are non-transferable; (iii) expire upon deletion of your Account or cancellation of your Subscription; (iv) may be withheld for actual or suspected (in SchematIQ’s sole discretion) fraud, abuse, circumvention or misuse; and (v) are subject to change, including through suspension or complete termination, in SchematIQ’s sole and absolute discretion and without advance notice to you.

5.6 Overdue Invoice. Following your failure to pay an invoice or any fees due and owing to SchematIQ, SchematIQ may suspend your Account or access to the Service and, before reinstating your Account or resuming the Service, may require that you pay: (a) all outstanding amounts; and (b) all amounts that will become payable during the remainder of the Term.

5.7 Taxes. Subscription Fees as well as any Additional Fees and other charges agreed to by you and SchematIQ exclude taxes, duties and charges, which you shall pay.

5.8 Refunds. You are not entitled to a refund unless otherwise required by applicable law. In exceptional circumstances, SchematIQ may offer refunds upon request, in SchematIQ’s sole and absolute discretion. If you believe you qualify for a refund, please contact SchematIQ at contact@deadlinewatch.com with the phrase “Refund Request” in the subject line and a description of your refund request in the body of the email.

6. TERM & TERMINATION

6.1 Term. The Agreement is effective on the earliest of: (a) in the case of access to the Website, the date you first access the Website; (b) if a Subscription, the date you sign up for such Subscription; or (c) such other date as agreed to between you and SchematIQ in writing.

6.2 Term Duration. The Term of a Subscription runs until the Subscription is terminated in accordance with this Agreement. A paid Subscription has a billing period of one month or, if you select annual billing, one year (or such other duration set out on the Platform, the Website, your Account or as separately agreed to between you and SchematIQ), and automatically renews for a Renewal Term of the same length unless cancelled in accordance with this Agreement.

6.3 Termination. The Term terminates upon the earliest of:

  • a. Cancellation of your Subscription prior to a Renewal Term (effective at the end of your current Subscription billing cycle unless otherwise specified by SchematIQ in writing);
  • b. your failure to pay the Subscription Fee, Additional Fee, or any fee or charge due and owing by you to SchematIQ;
  • c. in the case of access to the Website, when terminated by you or SchematIQ, which may occur at any time without notice; or
  • d. your non-compliance with (or rejection of) the Agreement or Privacy Policy.

Following termination, SchematIQ may, but is not obligated to, retain certain User Data (defined below) and Account Information, as required to permit you to restore your Account and/or Subscription. Further information on SchematIQ’s data retention practices are available in our Privacy Policy.
