3. Forms and Submissions

You accept and have sole responsibility for the forms, tables, submission pages, and other content that you create or that is generated as you use the Platform. When you make such content “public”, or set your account settings to allow the content to become public, or you don’t change a default setting that would allow a form, a table or other content that is generated as you use the Platform to be made public, you acknowledge and agree that the content will in fact be available to the public on our websites. By allowing such content to become public, you grant Secure Forms by ClikIT a worldwide and fully sublicensable license to use, distribute, reproduce, modify, adapt, publish, translate, publicly perform, and publicly display such content on our websites. Of course, you may choose to apply settings to your account to make or keep forms private.

You agree that you will not assert any copyright claim or other intellectual property claims or rights in forms you build or create using the Platform against Secure Forms by ClikIT, and that you waive any such legal claims against Secure Forms by ClikIT relating to such forms. This includes whole forms and parts of such forms. You acknowledge and agree that Secure Forms by ClikIT may display your forms on our websites and platforms, and that we may use your forms for the purposes of improving the form builder, for learning about how you and other people use, build, and create and submit forms, for teaching our staff, systems, and products about such matters, and for other purposes.

4. Account Creation & Security

You must provide a valid email address and any other information requested in order to fully complete the signup process and create a login.

5. Payments, Renewals, etc

A. Payments. We charge sales taxes on subscriptions where we are required to do so under applicable law. No other taxes will be charged. You are responsible for payment of any and all taxes, levies, and duties, including any sale or value-added taxes and similar taxes and duties, that may be imposed on you by any governing authority in any jurisdiction in connection with your subscription.

Secure Forms by ClikIT offers payments through third-party payment processors. By making payments to us for Secure Forms by ClikIT services, you indicate that you have reviewed these Terms and the privacy policy of the payment processor that processes your payment to us.

If you use a credit card to pay for your Secure Forms by ClikIT subscription, you represent and warrant that the credit card information you provide is correct and that you will promptly notify us of any changes to such credit card information. You agree that if your credit card payment cannot be processed for any reason, Secure Forms by ClikIT may suspend or cancel your Secure Forms by ClikIT subscription.

B. Automatic Renewal. For subscriptions, you will be billed in advance on a recurring, periodic basis. Your Secure Forms by ClikIT subscription will automatically renew at the end of each billing cycle until you cancel your subscription or you downgrade to a free/Starter plan – see this page and the Billing section in your Account Settings. You may also send us a request to downgrade to the Starter plan here. Turning off auto-renew prevents your payment method from being charged at your next billing date, or if you pay by invoice, prevents your next invoice from being issued.

C. Upgrades/Downgrades. Upgrading your plan, such as going from a free Starter plan to a Bronze plan, or from Bronze to Silver or Silver to Gold, will add or increase things like the included/allowed number of included forms, submissions, available space, storage, etc. Downgrading your plan will, as of your next billing date, result in a decrease of some or all of those elements and may cause you to lose forms and submissions. You can delete your account entirely by clicking “Delete My Account” on your Account Settings page.

D. 30 Day Money Back Policy. If for any reason you decide to cancel your account within 30 days of your payment made directly to Secure Forms by ClikIT, you are eligible for a refund – please submit your request to the Secure Forms by ClikIT Support Team.

See wordpress.org/about/security for details on the security of the WordPress core itself.

  • Prevention is best when it comes to security, and as a first step, we follow all WordPress Code Standards in the plugins that we build and use.

  • Every Infinite Uploads employee and contractor goes through background checks and an onboarding process. All staff only have access to systems that are directly required to complete the functions of their job. We use dual factor authentication for all critical systems and communications services, and automatically log all staff activity using an internal logging tool, Google ‘G’ Suite features, and Amazon Cloud Trail.
  • All staff (including any contractors) undergo initial training to ensure proper understanding of all security-related processes. Staff regularly attend industry conferences and otherwise stay informed of best practices and relevant trends. Staff review and agree, in writing, to all policies and procedures annually.
  • We only use third-party services, such as Amazon Web Services, that are fully vetted and adhere to the highest levels of privacy and security practices.

Data Breach Procedures

Should any event occur where customer data has been lost, stolen, or potentially compromised, our policy is to alert our customers via email no later than 48 hours of our team becoming aware of the event. We will also report such incidents to any required data protection authority. We will work closely with any customers affected to determine next steps such as any end-user notifications, needed patches, and how to avoid any similar event in the future.
