Acceptance of the Terms of Use
These terms of use are entered into by and between You and SOUTHERN GARDEN SOLUTIONS, LLC, a South Carolina limited liability company ( "Company," "we," or "us" ). The following terms and conditions, together with any documents they expressly incorporate by reference (collectively, "Terms of Use"), govern your access to and use of www.southerngardensol.com including mobile or localized versions and related domains / sub-domains and any content, functionality, software and services offered on or through www.withcardinal.com and mobile or localized versions and related domains / sub-domains (the "Platform").
Please read the Terms of Use carefully before you start to use the Platform. By using the Platform or by clicking to accept or agree to the Terms of Use when this option is made available to you, you accept and agree to be bound and abide by these Terms of Use and our Privacy Policy, found at https://www.southerngardensol.com/privacy , incorporated herein by reference. If you do not want to agree to these Terms of Use or the Privacy Policy, you must not access or use the Platform.
This Platform is offered and available to users who are 16 years of age or older. By using this Platform, you represent and warrant that you are a human of legal age able to form a binding contract with the Company. If you do not meet all of these requirements, you must not access or use the Platform.
Additional terms and conditions may also apply to specific portions, services, or features of the Platform. All such additional terms and conditions are hereby incorporated by this reference into these Terms of Use.
Changes to the Terms of Use
We may revise and update these Terms of Use from time to time in our sole discretion. All changes are effective immediately when we post them after we’ve provided you reasonable notice of the planned changes, and apply to all access to and use of the Platform thereafter. We will provide reasonable notice prior to making any planned changes so you are aware of any changes, as they are binding on you. Your continued use of the Platform following the posting of revised Terms of Use means that you accept and agree to the changes.
Accessing the Platform and Account Security
Based on circumstances beyond our control or if we determine it is in the best interest of the Platform and its users, we may withdraw or amend this Platform, and any service or material we provide on the Platform, in our sole discretion, upon reasonable notice. From time to time, we may restrict access to some parts of the Platform, or the entire Platform, to users, including registered users.
You are responsible for both:
Making all arrangements necessary for you to have access to the Platform.
Ensuring that all persons who access the Platform through your internet connection are aware of these Terms of Use and comply with them.
To access the Platform or some of the resources it offers, you may be asked to provide certain registration details or other information. It is a condition of your use of the Platform that all the information you provide on the Platform is correct, current, and complete. You agree that all information you provide to register with this Platform or otherwise, including, but not limited to, through the use of any interactive features on the Platform, is governed by our Privacy Policy, and you consent to all actions we take with respect to your information consistent with our Privacy Policy.
If you choose, or are provided with, a user name, password, or any other piece of information as part of our security procedures, you must treat such information as confidential, and you must not disclose it to any other person or entity. You also acknowledge that your account is personal to you and agree not to provide any other person with access to this Platform or portions of it using your user name, password, or other security information. You agree to notify us immediately at [email protected] of any unauthorized access to or use of your user name or password or any other breach of security. To ensure security procedures are maintained, please logout from your account at the end of each session. You should use particular caution when accessing your account from a public or shared computer so that others are not able to view or record your password or other personal information.
We may disable any user name, password, or other identifier, whether chosen by you or provided by us, at any time if, in our opinion, you have violated any provision of these Terms of Use.
Payment, Refunds, Taxes, Cancellations
The Platform may include automatically recurring payments for periodic charges ("Subscription"). If you activate a Subscription, you authorize the Company to periodically charge, on a going-forward basis and until cancellation of either the recurring payments or your account, all accrued sums on or before the payment due date for the accrued sums. The "Subscription Billing Date" is the date when you purchase your first subscription to the Platform. On the Subscription Billing Date, your account will automatically be charged all applicable fees for the next Subscription period. The Subscription will continue until you cancel your subscription or we terminate it. You must cancel your subscription before it renews in order to avoid billing of the next periodic Subscription fee to your account. We will bill the periodic Subscription fee to the payment method you provide to us during registration (or to a different payment method if you change your payment information). You may cancel the Subscription by accessing your account settings and clicking on the "Cancel Plan" option or by contacting us at: southerngardensolutions@gmail.com .
Access to the Platform is billed in advance in accordance with our pricing schedule. There will be no refunds or credits for partial months of service, annual payments, or for unused months.
All fees are exclusive of all taxes, levies, or duties imposed by taxing authorities, and you will be responsible for payment of all such taxes, levies, or duties. You agree to pay for any taxes that might be applicable to your use of the Platform or payments made by you in connection with your use of the Platform.
Any cancellation of your account will result in the deactivation or deletion of your account. Cancelled accounts cannot be recovered or restored.
