REGISTRATION INFORMATION

You will provide Beat The Market with accurate and complete registration information (including but not limited to information on institution and department). If you do not, you will be in breach of this Agreement, allowing Gold Simulations to immediately terminate your use of the Site(s) or any products/services provided through the Site(s). When you register or subscribe to certain Beat The Market services provided through the Site(s), you will receive a username and password which we may assign or allow you to select. You may not select a username that violates anyone's rights or one that, in Gold Simulation's sole discretion, Gold Simulations considers offensive, improper or inappropriate. If you do, Gold Simulations may modify or delete it.

FEES AND PAYMENTS

You agree to pay or have paid all applicable fees and charges incurred in connection with your username and/or password for Beat The Market Site(s) (including any applicable taxes) at the rates in effect when the charges were incurred. If you pay by credit card or other payment instrument and Gold Simulations does not obtain full payment, you agree to pay all amounts due upon our demand.

Access through a single username and password being made available to multiple users on a network without Gold Simulation's express prior written consent. If Gold Simulations reasonably believes that a username and password are being used in any of these ways, Gold Simulations reserves the right to cancel access rights immediately without notice and block access to all users from that IP address. If you believe someone has accessed the Site(s) using your username and password without your authorization, you must contact Gold Simulations customer support by going to www.btmgame.com and clicking on "ask a question" to contact us.

REFUND POLICY

Please contact our ordering department by going to www.btmgame.com and clicking on "ask a question" to send us an email or dial 908-730-7332 and indicate your desire to obtain a refund for an unused account. Upon receiving your request to return an unused account, we will first determine if the request is valid and then issue the credit to the credit card used in the purchase. The credit amount will be the same as the amount originally paid at the time of purchase. An unused account is determined to be unused if our database indicates no one has used the account. Once the account has been used, it will no longer be possible to grant a refund. All refund requests must be made within 30 days of purchase date. If a refund is given, the account will be deactivated. In other words, it will no longer be valid for participation in any simulation game and all data will be permanently deleted.
