ClickAunty MEMBER TERMS AND CONDITIONS
Please read this Member Terms and Conditions Agreement (the "Agreement") carefully.
The Agreement sets out the terms under which ClickAunty services (the "Services")
are provided to you by us through the www.ClickAunty.com website (the "Site"). By registering with ClickAunty, you become a
member of the Service (a "Member"), and you agree to be bound by the terms and conditions of this
Agreement (the "Terms") for as long as you continue to be a Member. Visitors to the Service who do not
register to become a Member similarly affirm that they are bound by this Agreement each time they access the
ClickAunty Service. If you do not agree to the Terms, please do not register for the ClickAunty Service
or otherwise access or use this Site.
We reserve the right at any time to:
· Change the terms and conditions of this Agreement;
· Change the Site, including eliminating or discontinuing any
content on or feature of the Site; or
· Change any fees or charges for using the Site.
Any changes we make will be effective immediately upon notice, which
we may provide by means including, without limitation, posting on
the Site or email. Your use of the Site after such notice will be
deemed acceptance of the changes. Be sure to review this Agreement
periodically to ensure familiarity with the most current version.
Upon our request, you agree to sign a non-electronic version of
this Agreement.
1. Eligibility

By becoming a Member, you represent and warrant that you are at least
