We
use a recurrent billing system. This means
that your subscription will be automatically
renewed at the lowest price available at the
time of renewal.
One
month before the expiry of your subscription
you will be reminded of this and you may cancel
the automatic renewal at that time.
Are
there any limitations for subscribers when they
log in?
Individual
Subscribers are restricted to accessing the
Subscribers area from ONLY 4 different IP
addresses within a 24-hour period.
If
individual Subscribers exceed this number
their account will be automatically locked.
We
feel that 4 IP addresses is adequate as most
individual users only require one IP address
from their office and one from home or laptop
within 24 hours.
This
security measure prevents users buying one
subscription and passing the login information
to friends or colleagues. So please, keep
your subscription details private.
Repeated
abuse will result in a subscription being
terminated.
Can
subscribers log in from different computers?
Individual
users can access from 4 different IP addresses
(i.e. 4 different computers) within a 24-hour
period.
Can
subscribers save the whole E-Magazine on their
home or work computer?
Yes.
