Ontheclock.com shall not be liable to you or to any third party for any modification, price change, suspension or discontinuance of the Service.
Billing: OnTheClock.com bills at the end of the month for the month’s service. It is usually the last day of the month, but may vary if on a weekend or holiday. OnTheClock.com pricing is based on the number of employees that you have listed in your account during the month. Any employee that is listed in your Employee List is considered an Active employee. It is the responsibility of your company’s Administrators or Managers to maintain your employee list by deleting employees when they no longer work for your company. Any employees that are listed or have been listed within 20 days of the billing date are charged for that month.
Payment, Refunds, Upgrading and Downgrading Terms: A valid credit card is required to activate your account. Trial accounts are not required to provide a credit card number until the trial period ends. The Service is billed on a monthly basis for the previous month of service and is non-refundable. Use of the service for 14 days will be considered as billable for the month. There will be no refunds or credits for partial months of service, upgrade/downgrade refunds, or refunds for months unused with an open account. In order to treat everyone equally, no exceptions will be made. All fees are exclusive of all taxes, levies, or duties imposed by taxing authorities, and you shall be responsible for payment of all such taxes, levies, or duties, excluding only United States (federal or state) taxes. For any upgrade or downgrade in services, your credit card that you provided will automatically be charged the new rate on your next billing cycle.
Free Accounts: A valid credit card is required to be on file for free accounts after the 30 day trial period. If you have less than 2 employees we will not charge your card. If however more than 2 employees are activated during the month, we will charge the card according to our standard pricing schedule.
Cancellation and Termination: The Administrator of the account is solely responsible for properly canceling your account and needs to email support@ontheclock.com requesting the cancellation of the account. Cancellation consists of a termination of your account. All of your Content will remain on our system for one year after cancellation and it may be deleted from the Service after that time. Please note that this information cannot be recovered once it is deleted.
If you cancel the Service before the 14th day of the month, your cancellation will take effect immediately and you will not be charged again. If you cancel on or after the 14th day of the month you will be billed for that month before your account is canceled. Ontheclock.com, at its sole discretion, has the right to suspend or terminate your account and refuse any and all current or future use of the Service, or any other Ontheclock.com service, for any reason at any time. Such termination of the Service will result in the deactivation or deletion of your Account or your access to your Account, and the forfeiture and relinquishment of all content in your Account. Ontheclock.com reserves the right to refuse service to anyone for any reason at any time.
Client area account: The Administrator is responsible for maintaining the security of your client area account, and you are fully responsible for all activities that occur under the account and any other actions taken in connection with the account. You must immediately notify Ontheclock.com of any unauthorized uses of your account or any other breaches of security. Ontheclock.com will not be liable for any acts or omissions by you, including any damages of any kind incurred as a result of such acts or omissions.
Responsibility for Time Card Data: Ontheclock.com does not and will not modify time card data and therefore is not responsible for the accuracy of any time card data. It is the Administrator of the account and or his/her managers that are responsible for the accuracy of all time card data. It is the responsibility of the Administrator or the manager/managers he/she designates to download all pay periods on a timely basis so their company has a record of the time cards.
Deletion of employees: Ontheclock.com does not and will not delete any of your employees and therefore is not responsible for the loss of any time card data that occurs when an employee is deleted. When an employee is deleted, they are put into a Special Holding Bin (similar to the recycle bin on your computer), this way they are not deleted permanently and the data will be retained. The deleted employee's time cards are still available and can still be viewed in the Time Cards section. You do not have to restore the employee to see previous time card data. Deleted employees will remain in the Special Holding Bin until you decide to Restore them. You can restore the employee any time you want to re-instate the employee with your company and their employee record will be restored. If you Restore the employee and then delete them again you will be charged for that employee during the next billing cycle as if they are still in your employee list for that month. So do not restore them unless you are re-instating them with your company. Deleted employees need to be deleted for 20 days in order to not be billed for them. This prevents anyone from deleting employees before the billing date and then re-instating them after the billing was done so as to avoid paying for them.
