Terms And Conditions

This page states the Terms and Conditions (“Terms”) under which you, the Web Site visitor (“You” or “Your” or “Yourself”) may use Dog Training Online (DTO, our site), which is owned by Dog Training Online, Inc. (“DTO” or “We” or “Us” or “Our”) unless otherwise covered by a separate TOS. By using DTO, You agree to be bound by all of the Terms and Conditions set forth below. If You do not accept these Terms and Conditions, please do not use DTO. We may, in Our sole discretion, revise these Terms and Conditions at any time; therefore, You should visit this page periodically to review the Terms and Conditions. Having such access to and use of DTO (including the content of DTO) through Us is collectively referred to as “the Service(s).”

PLEASE READ THESE TERMS CAREFULLY BEFORE USING THE SERVICES. IF YOU DO NOT AGREE TO THESE TERMS, PLEASE DO NOT USE THE SERVICES OR OTHERWISE ACCESS THE SITE.

You may use DTO for legal purposes only. Your rights to use DTO may be further limited by federal law or the laws or regulations in Your particular state or locality.

Your Acceptance of the Terms and Conditions

The Terms constitute a legal agreement between You, as a visitor to DTO, and Us. Any information provided by You is also subject to Our Privacy Policy, which is incorporated by reference into the Terms. By using the Services, You acknowledge and agree that You have read and agree to the terms in Our Privacy Policy. Additional terms and conditions of use may also be posted directly on other areas of the Site, and together with the Terms, as amended from time to time, are collectively referred to as the “Agreement.” We reserve the right to modify any or all of this Agreement at any time, and such change will be effective immediately upon its publication on DTO. You agree to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Agreement, and any modifications thereof, as long as You continue to access and use the Services. Because of the possibility that the Agreement could change between visits, You also agree to check the Terms of the Agreement each time You return. Your continued access to or use of DTO Content (defined below) shall be deemed Your conclusive acceptance of modifications to this agreement.

The Rights We Grant to You, the Site Visitor

The contents of this Web site, such as text, graphics, images, video and other content (the “Site Material”), are protected by copyright under both United States and foreign laws. We authorize You, non-exclusively and non-transferably, to view the Site Material for Your personal use. This authorization is not a transfer of title in the DTO Content or copies of the DTO Content. Unauthorized use of DTO Material violates copyright, trademark, and other laws. You may not download, sell or modify DTO Material or reproduce, display, distribute, or otherwise use the DTO Material in any way for any public or commercial purpose. The names, marks and logos included in the DTO Material are, unless otherwise noted, registered and/or common law trademarks owned by or licensed to DTO. Marks not belonging to DTO belong to their respective third party owners and DTO claims no rights in them. The use of these marks or the Site Material, except as provided in these Terms and Conditions, is prohibited.


Membership

1.1. Your DTO membership will continue and automatically renew until terminated. To use the DTO service you must have Internet access and a device and provide us with one or more Payment Methods. "Payment Method" means a current, valid, accepted method of payment, as may be updated from time to time and which may include payment through your account with a third party. You must cancel your membership 48 hours before it renews in order to avoid billing of the membership fees for the next billing cycle to your Payment Method (see "Cancellation" below).

1.2. We may offer a number of membership plans, including memberships offered by third parties in conjunction with the provision of their own products and services. We are not responsible for the products and services provided by such third parties. Some membership plans may have differing conditions and limitations, which will be disclosed at your sign-up or in other communications made available to you. You can find specific details regarding your DTO membership by visiting the dogtrainingonline.com website and clicking on the "Account" link available at the top of the pages above your profile name.

  • Promotional Offers. We may from time to time offer special promotional offers, plans or memberships (“Offers”). Offer eligibility is determined by DTO at its sole discretion and we reserve the right to revoke an Offer and put your account on hold in the event that we determine you are not eligible. Members of households with an existing or recent DTO membership may not be eligible for certain introductory Offers. We may use information such as device ID, method of payment or an account email address used with an existing or recent DTO membership to determine Offer eligibility. The eligibility requirements and other limitations and conditions will be disclosed when you sign-up for the Offer or in other communications made available to you.
  • Billing and Cancellation
    3.1. Billing Cycle. The membership fee for the DTO service and any other charges you may incur in connection with your use of the service, such as taxes and possible transaction fees, will be charged to your Payment Method on the specific payment date indicated on the "Account" page. The length of your billing cycle will depend on the type of subscription that you choose when you signed up for the service. Membership fees are fully earned upon payment. In some cases your payment date may change, for example if your Payment Method has not successfully settled, when you change your subscription plan or if your paid membership began on a day not contained in a given month. Visit the dogtrainingonline.com website and click on the "Orders & Subscriptions" link on the "My Account" page to see your next payment date. We may authorize your Payment Method in anticipation of membership or service-related charges through various methods, including authorizing it up to approximately one month of service as soon as you register. If you signed up for DTO using your account with a third party as a Payment Method, you can find the billing information about your DTO membership by visiting your account with the applicable third party.

    3.2. Payment Methods. To use the DTO service you must provide one or more Payment Methods. You authorize us to charge any Payment Method associated to your account in case your primary Payment Method is declined or no longer available to us for payment of your subscription fee. You remain responsible for any uncollected amounts. If a payment is not successfully settled, due to expiration, insufficient funds, or otherwise, and you do not cancel your account, we may suspend your access to the service until we have successfully charged a valid Payment Method. For some Payment Methods, the issuer may charge you certain fees, such as foreign transaction fees or other fees relating to the processing of your Payment Method. Check with your Payment Method service provider for details.

    3.3. Updating your Payment Methods. You can update your Payment Methods by going to the "My Account" page. We may also update your Payment Methods using information provided by the payment service providers. Following any update, you authorize us to continue to charge the applicable Payment Method(s).

    3.4. Cancellation. You can cancel your DTO membership at any time, and you will continue to have access to the DTO service through the end of your billing period. To cancel, go to the "Orders & Subscriptions" page under "My Account" in the top menu on our dogtrainingonline.com website and follow the instructions for cancellation or send us an email to info@dogtrainingonline.com. If your email is sent 48 hours before your bill date, your membership will end with no further charges at the end of your current billing period. If your email is sent after 48 hours before renewal, the subscription will auto-renew for one for one more paid term and will cancel at the end of the new term with no further charges. To see when your account will close, click "Orders & Subscriptions" on the "My Account" page. If you signed up for DTO using your account with a third party as a Payment Method and wish to cancel your DTO membership, you are still required to email DTO to notify your intention even when you unsubscribe from the DTO service through that third party.

    3.5. No Refunds. Payments are nonrefundable and there are no refunds or credits for partially used membership periods. Following any cancellation, however, you will continue to have access to the service through the end of your current billing period. At any time, and for any reason, we may provide a refund, discount, or other consideration to some or all of our members ("credits"). The amount and form of such credits, and the decision to provide them, are at our sole and absolute discretion. The provision of credits in one instance does not entitle you to credits in the future for similar instances, nor does it obligate us to provide credits in the future, under any circumstance.
