SUN ZU Lab Terms of Use

Welcome to SUN ZU Lab. Please read on to learn the rules and restrictions that govern your use of our website (https://SUNZULab.com/), products, services, technology, and applications (the “Services”). If you have any questions, comments, or concerns regarding these terms or the Services, please contact us at support@SUNZULab.com.

These Terms will remain in effect at all times while you use the Services or any data obtained through the Services. These Terms govern your access to the Services, and use of all data, content, and other information on SUN ZU Lab’s website(s) and other properties, and include the provisions in this document, as well as those in the Privacy Policy <https://SUNZULab.com/privacy-policy/>, the Legal Notice <https://SUNZULab.com/legal-notice/> and the Disclaimer <https://SUNZULab.com/disclaimer/>.

 

Will these Terms ever change?

We are constantly trying to improve our Services, so these Terms may need to change along with the Services. We reserve the right to change the Terms at any time, but if we do, we will bring it to your attention by placing a notice on the SUNZULab.com <https://SUNZULab.com/> website, by sending you an email, and/or by some other means.

If you don’t agree with the new Terms, you are free to reject them; unfortunately, that means you will no longer be able to use the Services. If you use the Services in any way after a change to the Terms is effective, that means you agree to all of the changes. Except for changes by us as described here, no other amendment or modification of these Terms will be effective unless in writing, and signed by you and SUN ZU Lab.

 

What about my privacy?

Will SUN ZU Lab ever change the Services?

We’re always trying to improve the Services, so they may change over time. We may suspend or discontinue any part of the Services, or we may introduce new features, impose limits on certain features, or restrict access to parts or all of the Services. We’ll try to give you notice when we make a material change to the Services that would adversely affect you, but this isn’t always practical. Similarly, we reserve the right to remove any Content from the Services at any time, for any reason in our sole discretion, and without notice. 

From time to time, SUN ZU Lab may require you to expunge some or all of the Content in your possession, and you will do so promptly upon request.

Some of our Services are currently free, but we reserve the right to charge for certain or all Services in the future. We will notify you before any Services you are then using begin carrying a fee, and if you wish to continue using such Service, you must pay all applicable fees for such Service.

Account termination may result in destruction of any Content associated with your account, so keep that in mind before you decide to terminate your account.

By way of example, all of the following will survive termination: any obligation you have to pay us or indemnify us, any limitations on our liability, any terms regarding ownership or intellectual property rights, and terms regarding disputes between us.

Additionally, upon termination of your account, SUN ZU Lab may require you to expunge some or all of the Content in your possession, and you will do so promptly.
