Terms of Service to watch for: September 2007 Archives
5. LIFETIME SUBSCRIPTIONS - Competitor's SLA
*COMPANY* offers lifetime subscriptions, currently priced at $299.95. Terms of lifetime subscriptions are subject to additional conditions as outlined in this section.
A lifetime subscription runs for the life of the person subscribing. During that time, *COMPANY* will store and host your digital image and video data and allow you online access to manage that collection. Lifetime subscriptions are not transferable, although this may change in the future. If *COMPANY* is to go out of business the subscription ends. *COMPANY* may terminate a lifetime subscription at any time by returning the photos and videos to you and returning your original purchase price, currently $299.95.
In the event of an acquisition of *COMPANY*, change of control of *COMPANY*, significant merger, or other legal reorganization, *COMPANY* may terminate lifetime subscriptions by returning photos and videos and returning your purchase price. If *COMPANY* terminates your account because of a violation of our terms of service, *COMPANY* will not provide image or video data back to you, nor will we refund your subscription price. *COMPANY* may change the limits of lifetime accounts from time to time to reflect costs. Other additional services may be offered for additional cost.
As a lifetime subscriber, you are entitled to receive your photos and video back on DVD once at no cost (US Customers). *COMPANY* will provide this DVD backup for free only once, upon request. After that, a nominal charge will apply. Unlike annual and monthly subscriptions, you do not need to be a member for a year before we will return your data back to you on DVD. For customers outside the United States, a nominal shipping and handling charge will apply. For US-based customers, no shipping or handling charge will apply and the the first DVD is entirely free.
If your *COMPANY* lifetime subscription account has no activity for a period of 5 years we will consider that account dormant and will remove online access to the data. We will then keep the data for an additional 1 year, at which point we will delete your data. Activity is defined as the addition of new data or the access of old data via the web, excluding traffic generated by search engines and other automated crawlers.
You can cancel your lifetime subscription. If you cancel your subscription, we will remove your data from our servers within 90 days of your cancellation.
Another reason we created iForem! We don't use such clever lawyers tellings us what lifetime means.

Dear Stephen,
Thank you so much for using Yahoo! Photos. Before we go, we can help you move your photos to a new home.
You must decide what to do by September 20, 2007, because any photos still here after that date will be deleted. Learn more.
