If there is a conflict between the provisions of this Part B of the Terms of Service and the provisions of Part A of the Terms of Service, the provisions of this Part B of the Terms of Service shall take precedence.
1.1 BluePrint Publishing may offer certain Services that are subject to a fee. These fees can be one-time fees to be paid prior to purchase (“Purchase Services”) or recurring fees (“Subscription Services”).
1.2 The scope and features of the Services and the amount of fees due as well as free trial periods, if applicable, are described in the respective Service descriptions.
1.3 If you buy Purchase Services or obtain Subscription Services, then the relevant Online Store provider’s terms and conditions will also apply. You acknowledge that any billing and transactions are handled by the Online Store provider. You should contact the Online Store provider directly if you have any payment-related issues with Purchase or Subscription Services.
1.4 Purchase or Subscription Services may be offered by third-parties and you may be asked to agree to the relevant services terms which will also apply in addition to these Terms of Service. You should read these Online Store terms carefully.
1.5 Subscription Services may include paid subscriptions to special features. These features are subject to modification, suspension, or discontinuation at our sole discretion. Certain features may also become temporarily unavailable from time to time. If a bundled subscription or a subscription to multiple apps is purchased, apps offered in the bundle are subject to change at any time. See the applicable Services descriptions for specific details.

Virtual Items shall be due for payment immediately after confirmation of the order. Virtual Items have a period of validity as described in the Service descriptions.

You may not re-sell or trade any Virtual Items.
2.3 Virtual Items to be used for purchase of Services (such as virtual currency) have a period of validity of three (3) years beginning with the end of the calendar year in which you purchased the Virtual Items (or if shorter, for the period the applicable Service remains available). The Virtual Items will expire after this period.
2.4 Please note that if you remove and reinstall a Service on a new device, or if your account becomes inactive, you may lose your in-Service purchases, including any Virtual Items.
3. USE RIGHTS; TERM; TERMINATION
3.1 The term for a Purchase Service begins with the placement of the order e.g. by clicking “buy”, “get”, “purchase”, “confirm” or “start trial” and/or using additional confirmation methods (e.g. fingerprint, FaceID, etc.) in the respective Service (“Purchase Date”) with an indefinite term until you delete the Service or terminate any premium features of the Purchase Service. In addition to section 3.1 of Part A of these Terms of Service, the use rights granted by BluePrint Publishing are bound to the respective Service that you have purchased and any updates or new releases of the Purchase Service for the warranty period. Where BluePrint Publishing continues to allow you to use newer versions or releases of the Purchases Services, such use will only be granted at BluePrint Publishing’s sole discretion.
3.2 The term for a Subscription Service begins with the placement of the order (e.g. by clicking “buy”, “get”, “purchase”, “confirm”, “subscribe”, or “start trial” and/or using additional confirmation methods (e.g. fingerprint) in the respective Service) and continues for the initial term (weekly, monthly or yearly) as provided in the applicable Service descriptions (“Initial Term”). The subscription for the Subscription Service will automatically renew for the same period as the Initial Term (“Renewal Term”) and in accordance with the then-current fees as described in the Service descriptions, unless you have deactivated the automatic renewal in your iTunes account settings, Google Play account settings or other subscription platform settings, or used any other termination mechanism on the subscription platform, as applicable, at least 24 hours before the end of the then current subscription term (“Termination Period”). If you have terminated the subscription before the Termination Period, then you will not be able to access and use the Subscription Services, including paid subscriptions to special features, once the Initial Term or the respective Renewal Term has expired. The statutory rights to terminate the agreement for cause shall not be affected. We shall be entitled to terminate the Subscription Service effective as of the end of each Initial or Renewal Term by providing fourteen (14) days prior notice. In case of a termination you are obliged to cancel your subscriptions in your iTunes account settings, Google Play account settings or other subscription platform settings or to use any other termination mechanism on the subscription platform.
3.3 The term of a Trial Version begins with the placement of the order (e.g. by clicking “buy” or “purchase” in the respective Service) and ends after the term announced in the Service descriptions (“Trial Period”). The term of a Trial Version ends automatically after the Trial Period without the requirement of a termination of either party. Once your Trial Period expires, you will no longer be able to access the Trial Version of the Services. BluePrint Publishing reserves the right (i) to determine if you are eligible to use the Trial Version and (ii) to discontinue any Trial Version without notice at our sole discretion.
4. PAYMENT
4.1 Fees for Purchase Services will be charged to your iTunes account, Google Play account or other platform account at confirmation of purchase. If you make a purchase by accident or want to refund your purchase, please contact the Online Store provider within 24 after you place your purchase. This does not affect any statutory claims for refund, such as the withdrawal right for European users.
4.2 Fees for Subscription Services will be charged to your iTunes account, Google Play account or other platform account at confirmation of purchase for the Initial Term and within 24 hours prior to the beginning of a Renewal Term.
This Part C of the Terms of Service applies in addition to Part A and Part B of the Terms of Service if you use the Services from the United States and other locations outside of Europe. If there is a conflict between the provisions of this Part C of the Terms of Service and the provisions of Part A or Part B of the Terms of Service, the provisions of this Part C of the Terms of Service shall take precedence.
1.1 You hereby agree to defend, indemnify and hold us, our business partners, third-party suppliers and providers, licensors, officers, directors, employees, distributors and agents (collectively, the “Indemnified Parties”) harmless from and against any damages, losses, liabilities, settlements, and expenses (including without limitation costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees incurred by the Indemnified Parties) in connection with any claim or action that:
(i) arises from any alleged breach by you of these Terms of Service or any representations, warranties and/or covenants contained herein
(ii) arises from the Content or effects of any messages you Post using our Services, or
(iii) otherwise arises from or relates to your use of our Services.
1.2 In addition, you acknowledge and agree that the Indemnified Parties have the right to seek damages from you when you use our Services for unlawful purposes, in an unlawful manner, and/or in a manner inconsistent with these Terms of Service. To the extent permitted by applicable law, you agree that these damages may include, without limitation, direct, indirect, special, incidental, cover, reliance and/or consequential damages.
2.1 Claims. In order to expedite the resolution of disputes and control related costs, you and BluePrint Publishing agree that any legal or equitable claim relating to these Terms of Service (referred to as a “Claim”) will be resolved as set forth in this Governing Law and Dispute Resolution Section.
2.2 Informal Resolution and Written Notice of Claim. You and BluePrint Publishing agree that we will first try to resolve any Claim informally by giving informal written notice prior to initiating any formal proceeding (including litigation or other legal proceeding). Accordingly, neither of us may start a formal proceeding for at least thirty (30) days after one of us notifies the other of a Claim in writing (“Notice of Claim”). If BluePrint Publishing has a Claim against you, we will send our Notice of Claim to your email address. If you believe you have a Claim against us, You will send your Notice of Claim to support@theblueprints.org with “Notice of Claim” clearly indicated in the subject line.
2.3 Arbitration. Please read this carefully. It affects your rights. BluePrint Publishing and you (such references include our respective predecessors in interest, successors and assigns) agree to arbitrate all disputes and claims arising out of or relating to these Terms of Service between BluePrint Publishing and you. The arbitration shall be governed by the Commercial Dispute Resolution Procedures and the Supplementary Procedures for Consumer Related Disputes (collectively, “AAA Rules”) of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”), as modified by these Terms of Service, and shall be administered by the AAA. All issues are for the arbitrator to decide, including the scope of this arbitration clause, but the arbitrator is bound by these Terms of Service. Except as otherwise provided for herein, BluePrint Publishing will pay all AAA filing, administration and arbitrator fees. If, however, the arbitrator finds that either the substance of your claim or the relief sought is improper or not warranted, as measured by the standards set forth in Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 11(b), then the payment of all such fees shall be governed by the AAA Rules. In such case, you agree to reimburse BluePrint Publishing for all monies previously disbursed by it that are otherwise your obligation to pay under the AAA Rules. If the arbitrator grants relief to you that is equal to or greater than the value of your demand, BluePrint Publishing shall reimburse you for your reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses incurred for the arbitration. You agree that, by entering into these Terms of Service, you and BluePrint Publishing are waiving the right to a trial by jury. You and BluePrint Publishing agree that YOU AND BluePrint Publishing MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN YOUR OR ITS INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, and not as a plaintiff or class member in any purported class or representative proceeding. Further, you agree that the arbitrator may not consolidate proceedings or more than one person’s claims, and may not otherwise preside over any form of a representative or class proceeding, and that if this specific proviso is found to be unenforceable, then the entirety of this arbitration clause shall be null and void.
2.4 Formal Resolution. If we cannot resolve a Claim informally, you and BluePrint Publishing each agree to submit to personal jurisdiction in New York and agree that any and all Claims either of us asserts shall be exclusively brought in the appropriate state or federal court in the Southern District of the State of New York, provided that neither you nor BluePrint Publishing shall be precluded from filing a Claim in small claims court, regardless of whether such small claims court is located in New York, for disputes within the jurisdiction of a small claims court.
2.5 Governing Law and Jurisdictional Issues. These Terms of Service are governed in all respects by the substantive laws of the State of New York and of the United States of America. The UN Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods is expressly disclaimed. Those who choose to access our Services from other locations do so on their own initiative and are responsible for compliance with local laws, if and to the extent local laws are applicable.
