The Company gives to Users on its Websites, a service for flattening predefined geometric shapes, some of whose dimensional and physical characteristics are to be edited / defined by the Users.

Members have a dedicated personal space including a historical of the geometric shapes they have already created, as well as a virtual Token Portfolio.

The Websites are accessible free of charge to any User using Internet at https://metalfox.net and https://app.metalfox.net. The costs incurred by the User to access the Internet and its equipment (computer, tablet, smartphone, software, etc.) are entirely at his own expense.

For technical reasons, the Websites and services are not accessible via the safari browser. In order to benefit from all the services offered by the Websites, the User must use modern and up-to-date browsers such as Google Chrome, or Mozilla Firefox, with JavaScript enabled and acceptance of cookies and pop-up windows.

Similarly, if the User uses overly restrictive means of protection (firewalls, some software, etc.), the Websites and their content may not work properly.

To use the payable services of the Site, the Member has two possibilities, which can be combined:

1) Buy Tokens individually or in batches:
These Tokens will be credited to his/her Virtual Portfolio and have no use-by date.
The Member sees the balance of Tokens in his/her personal area when logged in on the Site. He can credit this balance at any time, without limitation.
Apart from the exercise of the User’s right of withdrawal, the Company shall not reimburse the Tokens not used by the Member. On the other hand, in the event that the Member’s User Account is closed, the Member will have the option of transferring the balance of Tokens to another User Account.

2) Purchasing to a Subscription:
Subscriptions allow Members to generate a number of paid Flattening Files during a billing cycle. The number of Paid Flattening Files and the length of the billing cycle are determined by the Subscription purchased. At the beginning of each billing cycle, the number of Paid Flattening Files is reinitialized regardless of the remaining balance.

Company could offer and upgrade various Subscriptions, including special promotional Subscriptions.

To subscribe to a MetalFox subscription, Member must provide a valid Payment Method. Unless the Member cancels his subscription before his billing date, he authorizes the Company to bill him the price of his active subscription for the next billing cycle via his Payment Method. Billing cycles for subscriptions are thus renewed until they are cancelled.

Subscriptions will be billed via the Payment Method on the billing date indicated on the “My Subscription” tab in the customer area. The length of the billing cycle depends on the type of subscription chosen when the Member takes out a new subscription. In some cases, the billing date may change, for example, if the Payment Method did not work or if the subscription began on a day not contained in a given month.

Member is liable for any amount not drawn down. If the payment of a subscription renewal fails due to card expiry, insufficient balance or for any other reason, the subscription will be suspended until the Member has registered a new valid Payment Method.

Member registers a new Payment Method from his customer area, in the “My subscription” tab. He will then click on the number of his initial order (and not his renewals), then on the “Change Payment” button, to register his new Payment Method.

Member has access to the consumption of his Subscription, in his/her personal area.

If Member has used up the balance of his/her subscription and has Tokens, these will be deducted according to the generations of chargeable Flattening Files that he/she will generate.

Member can modify his/her subscription at any time. His/her balance will be carried forward in excess of the balance of his/her new subscription.

Member can suspend and reactivate his/her subscription at any time from his/her personal area. In the case of a suspension, if he/she generates chargeable flattening files and if he/she has Tokens on his/her account, these will be deducted according to his/her use. When he/she reactivates his/her subscription, he/she will recover his/her old balance if the cycle has not expired, otherwise he/she will recover a balance corresponding to his/her subscription. The suspension of a subscription suspends the direct debits. These are reactivated when the subscription is reactivated.

Member can cancel his subscription at any time from his customer area, from the “My subscription” tab, by clicking on the “Stop renewal” button. The direct debit will then be cancelled and any balance of tokens will be usable until the end of the subscription cycle.

Company reserves the exclusive right to delete the account of a Member who has not complied with these Terms and Conditions (for example, if a Member has knowingly provided false information when creating his/her User Account). The Company reserves the right to take legal action against a Member if circumstances warrant, whether its User Account is closed or opened.
