By accessing and using Simply Automated QR ("the Service"), you accept and agree to be bound by the terms and provisions of this agreement. If you do not agree to these Terms of Service, please do not use the Service.
2. Description of Service
Simply Automated QR lets you create QR codes and manage saved ones. The Service includes:
- Static QR codes made without an account, on the home page or with the image API
- Saved QR codes that use a short link, with a total scan count for each code
- On the Pro plan, changing a saved code's destination after it is printed
- PNG and SVG downloads
3. User Accounts and Registration
To use certain features of the Service, you must register for an account. You agree to:
- Provide accurate, current, and complete information during registration
- Maintain and update your information to keep it accurate and current
- Maintain the security of your account credentials
- Accept responsibility for all activities under your account
- Notify us immediately of any unauthorized access to your account
4. Subscriptions and Billing
The Free plan costs nothing. The Pro plan costs $5 per month or $39 per year (USD), plus any tax that applies. Payments are processed by Stripe.
- Automatic renewal. Pro renews automatically at the end of each monthly or yearly period, and the card on file is charged the then-current price, until you cancel.
- Cancelling. You can cancel at any time from the billing page in your account. Cancelling stops the next renewal; Pro stays active until the end of the period you have paid for.
- When Pro ends. Your saved QR codes keep working and keep sending people to their last destination. Changing destinations is locked until you subscribe again, and the Free plan's limits apply to new codes.
- Refunds. Contact us at support@simplyautomated.io about refunds.
- Price changes. We will tell you about a price change before it applies to your next renewal.
