  3. Subscription
    1. Certain functionality or facilities may only be available to registered members who have agreed to subscribe to the Site and Service ("Subscribers").

We offer different types of subscription with different levels of service and functionality available for each subscription type. We may also offer different subscription periods and we may allow you to subscribe monthly, annually or on some other periodic basis.

We also reserve the right to change our subscription periods. When we change our subscription types or subscription periods you will be entitled to keep your existing subscription until the end of your then-current subscription period and at the end of that period you will be required to subscribe on the new basis.
    4. We may (at our sole discretion and for such time period as we may determine) allow you to maintain a previous subscription type after a change has been implemented (referred to as a "grandfather right"). This grandfather right will only apply until such time as you cancel your account or allow your account to lapse and you may not recover the grandfather right after such cancellation or lapse. If we have allowed you to benefit from a grandfather right then we may at any time notify you that the grandfather right will terminate on a given date. However we agree that such termination of a grandfather right will be effective from the end of a subscription period.
    5. We may offer a free trial period during which we allow you, for a limited period, to access functionality which is usually only available to subscribers. Once a trial period ends if you do not take out a subscription we reserve the right to withdraw your access to the Service. We may, at our sole discretion, extend any trial period.
  4. Account Restrictions
    1. You may not use your WhenIsGood.net account or subscription to licence, distribute, resell or package our services to any third party whether directly or indirectly and you may not use WhenIsGood.net in any way to facilitate or provide any similar service to any third party.
    2. Each WhenIsGood.net subscription may be used to create events and process responses for just one individual, organisation or trading entity. While you may process bookings for different teams or departments within your organisation, you may not use the Service to process any bookings for anyone outside of your organisation. We define an "organisation" to be a single legal entity in a single territory (for instance a limited company or limited liability corporation, partnership or association, but an overseas branch of that entity would be a separate organisation).
    3. You may not in any circumstances use a single WhenIsGood.net subscription or account to create events and process responses for more than one organisation or person.
    4. If you provide a service to third party businesses or organisations (referred to as your "Clients") and, as part of the services you offer you wish to set up or facilitate the provision of our Service on your Client’s behalf (e.g. you configure our Service as part of a bundle of other services) then you are only entitled to do so as the duly authorised agent for that Client. You must set up a separate WhenIsGood.net account for each of your Clients and you may not aggregate or combine more than one Client in any account. You also agree that, by accepting these Terms and Conditions you have the authority to bind your Clients to these Terms and Conditions.
    5. Where you are administering a WhenIsGood.net account on behalf of your Clients as their duly authorised agent we may (at our sole discretion) provide additional tools to aggregate or link the different accounts together (e.g. an administration console). Please note that these arrangements will be purely to assist you in your role as duly authorised agent for your Client.
    6. The restrictions in this clause 4 and otherwise in these Terms and Conditions apply to all subscription levels, including existing enterprise accounts.
    7. Please note that certain subscription levels may allow for a limited number of separate accounts to be linked to one master administrator subscription holder and for all of the accounts under that subscription to benefit from certain premium features. The applicable email addresses in respect of all accounts which we agree to link to a single subscription in this way must be part of the same internet domain (i.e. identified by email addresses that end with same text after the @ symbol).
    8. Please note that if you subscribe to any subscription type which allows for accounts to be linked then you, as the subscription holder, will be responsible and liable for all activity in respect of each of those accounts and you agree to ensure that any personnel accessing or using those accounts will comply with these Terms and Conditions.
  5. Scheduling and Creating an Event
    1. The Service operates by creating an online grid of days and times and in order for you to create an event you need to fill out your free times in a generic calendar grid and send the link through to the proposed attendees using your own email.
    2. Each attendee can fill out their own free times and add their name and comments.
    3. If you are not logged in, you need to enter a ‘results code’ which is provided by the system, to access the results of the event. If you have created an account, you can opt to receive an email notification when you receive responses. In either case you can then review a page which collates everyone’s responses with the free times which every attendee can make highlighted.
    4. Please note our system sends emails to you using a third party provider in order to maintain a high reputation with ISPs for transactional email management. However, we cannot guarantee that emails will not occasional be blocked by spam filters, bounced or in some other way not be delivered.
    5. Enhanced services we may offer include the ability to allow potential attendees to fine tune their availability into preferred and less preferred times, to remove advertising on the Site and to allow for CSV download of responses.
    6. Please note that each event is controlled by the event creator and the attendees. Once an event has been created the results page is updated each time a response is received. Event creators can edit the original event or change or delete responses.
