2050 MATERIALS Terms of Service

About

2050 Materials is a platform (the “Platform”) that enables manufacturers/suppliers to list their products, centralize all product data and obtain KPIs and analytics. At the same time, it enables sustainability consultants, architects (and other specifiers), contractors and other construction professionals to understand product performance data easily and discover, evaluate, compare and specify building products. The platform and integrated tools allow for fine-grained analysis, benchmarking and reporting in the specification and procurement processes for construction projects of any scale.

General

The Terms of Service will be effective as of the date you click the “Sign Up” button as part of the registration process, or have an active account created and issued to you by 2050 Materials.

You are obliged to pay the amount due by the due date as specified on your Contract and Invoice document. If you fail to make any payment due by the due date for payment, then, your subscription will be immediately suspended.

Cancellation and Termination

You are solely responsible for cancelling your subscription. Cancellation of the service must be explicitly requested in writing no later than 30 days before the subscription period ends. If the cancellation is not requested explicitly, the service will automatically renew for the following 12 months following the expiration of the subscription period and every year after that unless the cancellation is explicitly requested at least 30 days before the subscription period ends. Any changes to the scope of the current service due to additional services will be agreed upon on a case-by-case basis and, wherever applicable, included within the following year's subscription fee.

2050 MATERIALS, at its sole discretion, has the right to suspend or terminate your account and refuse any and all current or future use of the Platform for any reason. Such termination of your account 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.
