Plain-English summary

The terms contain several critical risk flags. Lemon Squeezy limits its liability for unauthorized access to Customer Data unless it's due to their gross negligence or willful misconduct (risk_flags-1). They also disclaim liability for lost data, lost profits, and various indirect damages. Furthermore, their total liability is capped at the amount paid by the customer during the one-month period prior to the cause of action (risk_flags-3). Regarding data use, Lemon Squeezy has the right to use, reproduce, modify, and distribute Customer Data for service operation and improvement and to share it with third parties for business activities and integrations. They can monitor usage and collect, aggregate, and de-identify data, and they claim ownership of all De-Identified Data (data_use-4). A significant concern in cancellation & renewal is the automatic enrollment in a paid subscription after a free trial, with charges incurred if not canceled within the specified period (cancellation_renewal-1). Other potential gotchas include the possibility of trial data being purged if not retained or converted to a paid subscription (gotchas-1), and the assessment of additional fees for account blocking or unblocking due to late payments (gotchas-2).

Automatic enrollment in paid subscription after free trial

The free trial involves an automatic enrollment in a subscription, and you may be liable for future subscription fees if you fail to terminate the free trial before its expiration date. If you fail to cancel within 14 days of your original 14-day trial, you will be charged the full retail price for monthly services going forward until you cancel.

Why it matters: If you don't cancel your free trial within the specified timeframe, you will automatically be charged for a monthly subscription.

YOU EXPRESSLY ACKNOWLEDGE, UNDERSTAND, AND AGREE THAT THE FREE TRIAL INVOLVES A “NEGATIVE OPTION” (I.E., AUTOMATIC ENROLLMENT IN A SUBSCRIPTION OF THE LEMON SQUEEZY SERVICE), AND THAT YOU MAY BE LIABLE AND RESPONSIBLE FOR THE PAYMENT OF FUTURE SUBSCRIPTION FEES UNDER THE TERMS OF THIS AGREEMENT IF YOU FAIL TO TERMINATE THE FREE TRIAL BEFORE ITS EXPIRATION DATE. YOU MAY CANCEL THE FREE TRIAL OR SUBSCRIPTION AT ANY TIME AS SPECIFIED HEREIN. HOWEVER, IF YOU FAIL TO CANCEL WITHIN 14 DAYS OF YOUR ORIGINAL 14 DAY TRIAL, YOU WILL BE CHARGED THE FULL RETAIL PRICE FOR MONTHLY SERVICES GOING FORWARD UNTIL YOU CANCEL.

Trial data may be purged after expiration if not converted to paid subscription

Any data entered during the free trial period may be temporary. If Customer does not activate the Lemon Squeezy Service as a paid subscription or does not elect to retain the trial period data, Lemon Squeezy may purge and delete that trial period data at any time after expiration of the trial period.

ANY DATA ENTERED INTO THE LEMON SQUEEZY ACCOUNT DURING THE FREE TRIAL PERIOD MAY BE TEMPORARY ONLY. UPON ACTIVATION OF THE PAID SUBSCRIPTION, CUSTOMER MAY BE PROMPTED TO CHOOSE IF IT WISHES TO RETAIN PRIOR ENTERED DATA, OR IF SUCH DATA SHALL BE PURGED. IF CUSTOMER DOES NOT ACTIVATE THE LEMON SQUEEZY SERVICE (EITHER AUTOMATICALLY OR MANUALLY) AS A PAID SUBSCRIPTION OR DOES NOT ELECT TO RETAIN THE TRIAL PERIOD DATA, LEMON SQUEEZY MAY PURGE AND DELETE THAT TRIAL PERIOD DATA AT ANY TIME AFTER EXPIRATION OF THE TRIAL PERIOD.
