User Files

When you use the MiMedia Services, you provide us with your User Files containing content that you lawfully own or have a legal right to upload and store to and within the MiMedia Services. You retain all ownership rights to your User Files. However, by uploading User Files, you give MiMedia permission to take all actions required in order to enable us to provide, analyze, and improve the Services (including but not limited to data storage, maintenance services, database management, web analytics, and improvement of the MiMedia Services features) and to comply with applicable law. This includes sharing information with our trusted third party vendors and business partners who may have access to such information only for purposes of performing these tasks on our behalf. Our Privacy Policy explains how we treat your personal data and protect your privacy when you use the MiMedia Services.

By uploading and storing your User Files, you represent and warrant that you lawfully own, or have a legal right to upload and store, all your User Files to and within the MiMedia Services.

However, please DO NOT copy, upload, download, share or distribute any User Files unless you have the legal right to do so. MiMedia has no responsibility for what you do with your User Files. Providing you with the MiMedia Services does not mean, suggest or imply that MiMedia authorizes, approves, endorses, or encourages any of your activities with any User Files. We reserve the right, in our sole discretion, to immediately suspend or terminate your account and remove your User Files from the MiMedia Services, if we become aware or determine, in our sole judgment, that your User Files or what you are doing with your User Files is unlawful or unauthorized or otherwise violates or infringes upon another’s intellectual property rights.

Cancellation of Subscription

Once you sign up for an account, you agree to the Terms of Use. If you wish to cancel your account for any reason, please use our online contact form, subject to the terms and conditions set forth below:

  • Cancellation of Free Subscription: If you have a free subscription with us, you may contact us to cancel at any time, and your subscription will end immediately upon our processing of your cancellation.
  • Cancellation of Paid Monthly Subscription: If you have a paid monthly subscription with us, you may contact us to cancel at any time, and your subscription will end immediately upon our processing of your cancellation and you will receive a prorated refund of your prepaid subscription fee for the remainder of the month in which you cancel. For example, suppose that you have prepaid for the month of January 2016 and you contact us to cancel your month-to-month subscription on January 20, 2016, and that we process your cancellation on January 21, 2016. In this example, your subscription will end on January 21, 2016, and you will receive a prorated refund of your prepaid subscription fee for the period from January 21 through January 31, 2016.
  • Cancellation of Paid Yearly Subscription: If you have a paid yearly subscription with us, you may contact us to cancel at any time, and your subscription will end as follows, depending on the time of your cancellation: (i) if you cancel within the first thirty (30) days of your subscription, your subscription will end immediately upon our processing of your cancellation and you will receive a full refund of your prepaid yearly subscription fee; and (ii) if you cancel after the first thirty (30) days of your subscription, your subscription will automatically end at the end of your prepaid subscription term (which means that you can continue to use the MiMedia Services until the end of your prepaid subscription term), and there will be no refund of your prepaid subscription fee, even if you choose to discontinue use of the MiMedia Services right away upon cancellation. For example, if you become a yearly subscriber on January 1, 2016, and you contact us on January 30, 2016, to cancel your account, your subscription will end immediately upon our processing of your cancellation and we will issue you a full refund of your prepaid subscription fee for 2016; however, if you contact us after January 30, 2016, to cancel your account, then your subscription will end as of December 31, 2016, and you will not receive any refund of your prepaid subscription fee.

Once your subscription ends, any User Files stored by or for you on the MiMedia Services may be deleted by MiMedia within thirty (30) days.

Downgrade from Paid Subscription to Free Subscription

If you have a paid monthly or yearly subscription with us, you have the option to downgrade your subscription to a free subscription by contacting us, subject to the terms and conditions set forth below:

  • In order to downgrade, you must reduce the User Files then stored in your account to meet the prescribed storage limit for a free subscription (currently, that limit is 10GB), and we cannot process your downgrade and your downgrade will not take effect until you do so and we have verified such to be the case. IMPORTANT NOTE: Until we process your downgrade and your downgrade takes effect, your subscription will remain and continue to be treated as a paid subscription and will be subject to automatic renewal and billing (unless you cancel your paid subscription).

Upon our processing of your downgrade (after you meet the storage limit for a free subscription), your downgrade will take effect and the following refund policy will apply:

  • If you downgrade from a paid monthly subscription, we will issue you a prorated refund of your prepaid subscription fee for the remainder of the month in which your downgrade takes effect. For example, suppose that you have prepaid for the month of January 2016 and you contact us to downgrade to a free subscription on January 20, 2016, and that at the time you contact us you have over 10GB User Files stored in your account. In this example, we cannot process your downgrade until you reduce the User Files stored in your account to meet the 10GB limit for a free subscription. Suppose that on January 25, 2016, you are able to meet the storage limit for a free subscription after removing some of the User Files stored in your account and that after we verify such to be the case, we process your downgrade on January 26, 2016. In such case, your downgrade will take effect on January 26, 2016, and you will receive a prorated refund of your prepaid subscription fee for the period from January 26 through January 31, 2016. Now, suppose that by January 31, 2016, you still do not meet the storage limit for a free subscription. In such case, your paid monthly subscription will automatically renew on February 1, 2016, and you will automatically be billed the subscription fee for the month of February. If on February 5, 2016, you are able to meet the storage limit for a free subscription and, after we verify such to be the case, we process your downgrade on February 6, 2016, we will issue you a prorated refund of your prepaid subscription fee for the period from February 6, 2016, through the end of February 2016.
  • If you have a paid yearly subscription and you downgrade within the first thirty (30) days of your prepaid subscription term, we will issue you a full refund of your prepaid subscription fee for the remainder of the year commencing from the date your downgrade takes effect. For example, suppose that you become a yearly subscriber on January 1, 2016, and you contact us on January 20, 2016, to downgrade to a free subscription and that at the time you contact us you have over 10GB User Files stored in your account. In this example, we cannot process your downgrade until you reduce the User Files stored in your account to meet the 10GB limit for a free subscription. Suppose that on January 25, 2016, you are able to meet the storage limit for a free subscription after removing some of the User Files stored in your account and that after we verify such to be the case, we process your downgrade on January 26, 2016. In such case, your downgrade will take effect on January 26, 2016, and you will receive a full refund of your prepaid subscription fee for 2016.
  • If you have a paid yearly subscription and you downgrade after the first thirty (30) days of your prepaid subscription term, there will be no refund of your prepaid yearly subscription fee, and your free subscription will automatically begin at the end of your prepaid subscription term.

IMPORTANT NOTE: Even if you contact us to request a downgrade within the first thirty (30) days of your prepaid subscription term, but if your downgrade does not take effect until after such thirty (30) days because you do not timely reduce the User Files stored in your account to meet the storage limit for a free subscription, you will not receive any refund of your prepaid yearly subscription fee, and your free subscription will automatically begin at the end of your prepaid subscription term.
