Terms of Use

Terms and Conditions of Service

Introduction & Scope.

Welcome, these are the Terms and Conditions of Service (hereinafter, the “Terms”) for our platform available at the URL www.ontegro.com (the “Site”), including its sub-domains and its mobile optimized versions, along with any products and services offered thereby.  

These Terms shall supplement our Privacy Policy (the “Policy”, available at --- URL ---), incorporated herein by reference.

The Site, the App and any provided products and services are proudly delivered by the Ontegro team (hereinafter referred all them collectively referred to as “Ontegro”).

The following terminology applies to our Terms, Policy and other guidelines and agreements indicated by us from time to time: “client”, “user”, “you” and “your” refers to you, the person logged on this Site and in compliance with our terms and conditions. The words “ourselves”, “we”, “our” and “us”, refers to us and our parent and holding companies. Any use of the above terminology or other words in the singular, plural, capitalization and/or he/she or they, are taken as interchangeable and therefore as referring to the same.

All terms hereof refer to the offer, acceptance, and consideration of payment necessary to undertake the process of our assistance to the user in the most appropriate manner for the express purpose of meeting each of our customer’s needs in respect of the provision of Ontegro’s stated services, in accordance with and subject to prevailing applicable laws for our sale of goods.

Henceforth, by accessing this Site, on behalf of yourself or the entity that you represent, you represent and warrant that you have the right, authority, and capacity to enter into both these Terms and our Policy (on behalf of yourself or the entity that you represent), in accordance with all applicable laws and regulations. If you do not agree with any of these Terms, you are prohibited from using or accessing this Site. Please, ensure that you read them thoroughly, because, by using Ontegro, you consent to these Terms.

These terms apply to all our visitors, registered users and members of our community. There will be specific sections that will individually apply to users who register to be a creator of content/experiences and also for users who register to be consumers of such content/experiences.

Finally, these terms require the use of arbitration on an individual basis to resolve disputes, rather than jury trials or class actions, and also limit the remedies available to you in the event of a dispute.

Services Offered.

Ontegro agrees to furnish its online social media platform services (the “Services”) to: (i) the visitors that browse the Site; (ii) registered users; and (iii) any other users that have opened an account, all subject to the following Terms.

Certain features or future services may demand that you enter into a distinct and supplemental written agreement prior to use, in which case we will provide you them for your full review prior to any acceptance.

Account Registration, Verification and Safety.

In order to use our Services, you must create an account, including all mandatory fields on the registration form. You must provide accurate and complete information, and you hereby agree to keep the password chosen upon creating your account as confidential and not to communicate it to third parties.  

If you lose or disclose it, you must promptly inform us. You are solely responsible for the activity that occurs on your account and for keeping your password secure and confidential, and must notify us immediately of any breach or unauthorized use of your account.

Account Suspension & Termination.

Ontegro encourages you to report violations of our guidelines and Terms. We reserve the right, at our sole and final discretion, to deactivate, freeze, suspend or terminate any account upon any factual or alleged breach of these Terms. You must notify us immediately of any change in your eligibility to use our platform, or if you suspect a breach of security or unauthorized use of your account.

Users undertaking conducts that may constitute a factual –or even alleged– breach of these Terms, including but not limiting, using automated mechanisms to make fraudulent communications, may become subject to immediate account suspension/termination, at our sole and final discretion, without notice and without responsibility.

You acknowledge and agree that we may report any activity that we believe may violate any law to law enforcement, regulators or other relevant third parties, and that any violation of the aforementioned provisions may result in the immediate termination of your access to the Site or our Services.

You may terminate your account at any time by going to the “delete account” button located inside the “Edit Profile” section which can be accessed through the dropdown at the side of your username. We may terminate or suspend your Ontegro account if you go contrary to any Ontegro policies or for any other reason(s), which we will notify you about.

Payment Terms.

In the future, we may rely on authorized third-party payment processors in order to bill you through a payment account linked to you, and henceforth you hereby authorize us to charge the pertinent fees through your indicated payment processing account. Sensitive financial details are stored only by our payment providers.

Such third party payment processors are also the ones that process, manage, operate and deliver the payments of your end customers, not Ontegro. For more information, please refer to the terms of use of our third party payment processing platform, which may include Stripe and those used by Apple, Google, Twitch and others.

Accordingly, Ontegro shall not be held responsible for any and all errors, fees and currency conversion fees by our payment processors, and you should review its terms and policies from time to time, which will govern the provision of services to you.

Disputes & Charge-backs.

In the future, users may provide us with valid and current billing information. Except as expressly set forth herein, all payment charges are final and non-cancelable. If we detect any chargeback or if any payment is not received by us or our payment processors for any reason, you will promptly pay us any and all amounts due to us upon notice. Any failure or inability by us to process any payment hereunder does not relieve you from your payment obligations.

A chargeback is typically caused when a customer disputes a charge that appears on their bank or payment processing statement. A charge-back may result in the reversal of a transaction, with the amount charged back to you. You can be assessed charge-backs for: (i) customer disputes; (ii) unauthorized or improperly authorized transactions; (iii) transactions that do not comply with payment processor network rules or are allegedly unlawful or suspicious; or (iv) any reversals for any reason by our payment processor or the institutions handling the transaction.

When a chargeback is issued, you are immediately liable to Ontegro for the full amount of payment of the chargeback, plus any associated fees, fines, expenses or penalties (including those assessed by our payment processor or the financial institutions handling the transaction). Accordingly, you hereby represent and warrant that you expressly appoint Ontegro as your agent, with full power to recover these amounts by debiting your account or setting off any amounts owed to you by us.

If we are unable to recover funds related to a charge-back for which you are liable, you will pay us the full amount of the chargeback immediately upon demand; thus you agree to pay all costs and expenses, including without limitation, costs assessed by our payment processor, legal fees and other legal expenses, incurred by or on behalf of us in connection with the collection of any unpaid charge-backs unpaid by you.

Updates & Amendments.

Ontegro reserves the right to modify, amend, suspend, terminate, upgrade, update, or otherwise modify these Terms, at any time and without notice. Any changes will be displayed in the Site, and we may notify you by email. Please refer to the last effective date where changes were last undertaken by us. Your use of our Services after the effective date of any update– either by an account registration or simple use – thereby indicates your acceptance thereof.

Particularly for public forum messaging groups, there will be a list of attendees displayed.
