FRAPPEHUB TERMS OF SERVICE

FRAPPEHUB is provided by IDERIA Sdn. Bhd. a startup of Universiti Malaysia Perlis (UniMAP) in collaboration with the Deputy Vice Chancellor's Office (Research & Innovation), UniMAP.

Acceptance of Terms

FRAPPEHUB provides its services to you subject to the following Terms of Service (TOS). If you do not agree to be bound by our TOS, we kindly ask you not to use or access our services.

We reserve the right to amend these terms at any time by posting the amended terms on this site. These terms apply to both conference organizers who pay for our services and chairs, authors, reviewers and attendees using our services.

Conference and Journal Organizers

You must be legally able to organize the conference that you create on our site. You must accurately describe your event and all terms, including cancellation and refund policies. You are obligated as the organizer to complete the transaction with the registering user. Without limiting any other remedies, we may suspend or terminate your account if we suspect that you have engaged in fraudulent activity in connection with our site or your conference or journal.

You agree that you will use your real name, affiliation and email address for all FRAPPEHUB purposes.

You agree not to share your password with any other person and will not share accounts.

You agree that you will not send unsolicited email to prospective authors or TPC members, whether through FRAPPEHUB or any other mechanism, when organizing a conference with FRAPPEHUB, as this reflects badly on other conferences using FRAPPEHUB.

You agree that you will not extract, collect or export FRAPPEHUB user information, such as email addresses, or other contact information to send call-for-papers (CFPs), TPC invitations or other messages within or outside FRAPPEHUB.

You agree that you will only send CFPs for the conference or journal itself and only if the conference or journal submissions are handled by FRAPPEHUB.

You agree that you will not send CFPs for other conferences to members of the TPC, authors or any other conference email group, except for a conference in the same conference series.

You agree that you will use the FRAPPEHUB email sending functionality only for matters directly related to the conference or journal and only for the intended purpose. For example, you agree that you will not use the FRAPPEHUB email and notification facilities to send CFPs for other conferences or journals, solicit votes, conduct petition drives or advertise products, services or events.

You agree that you will permit FRAPPEHUB to fully refund registrations to attendees if your event is cancelled, or is held at a different date or moved to a different location than stated at the time of registration. If some or all of the collected funds have been transferred to your account, you agree to provide full refunds to attendees within 30 days of the original date of the conference.

If, at any time, FRAPPEHUB receives a credit card chargeback or determines that a registration is fraudulent, you agree to reimburse FRAPPEHUB for the amount of the chargeback or fraudulent charge.

You agree that any fees for currency conversion and bank (wire) transfers are the responsibility of the conference.

Conference Attendees

By registering for a conference or pay for other conference or journal-related services, you agree to abide by the refund policy of the conference or journal as configured in FRAPPEHUB. Conferences may, for example, offer only partial or no refunds for cancellations beyond a certain date or may not offer refunds if you do not attend the conference for any reason ("no show"). If you have questions about the conference refund policy, please contact the conference organizers as only they can provide binding answers.

Due to currency conversion and fees imposed by your bank, the amount shown on your credit card statement may differ from the registration fee shown on the conference web site or FRAPPEHUB.

If a conference is cancelled and FRAPPEHUB has transferred the attendance fees to the bank account of the conference organizers, you must contact the conference organizer to seek a refund.

Payment Services

Payment processing services for attendees, authors and conferences on FRAPPEHUB are provided by Stripe and SecurePay. Payment processing services by Stripe are subject to the Stripe Connected Account Agreement, which includes the Stripe Terms of Service (collectively, the “Stripe Services Agreement”). While, payment processing services by SecurePay are subject to the SecurePay Connected Account Agreement, which includes the SecurePay Terms of Service (collectively, the “Online Payments Services Terms and Conditions”). By agreeing to these terms or continuing to operate as a conference organizer, author or attendee on FRAPPEHUB, you agree to be bound by the Stripe Services Agreement, as the same may be modified by Stripe from time to time. As a condition of FRAPPEHUB enabling payment processing services through Stripe, you agree to provide FRAPPEHUB accurate and complete information about you and your business, and you authorize FRAPPEHUB to share it and transaction information related to your use of the payment processing services provided by Stripe.

Indemnification

You agree to indemnify and hold FRAPPEHUB, and its subsidiaries, affiliates, officers, agents, co-branders or other partners, and employees, harmless from any claim or demand, including reasonable attorneys' fees, made by any third party due to or arising out of information you submit, post, transmit or make available through the Services, your use of our services, your connection to the services, your violation of the TOS, or your violation of any rights of another.
