Description of Service

The Service includes, and is limited to, a service or website that allows You access to and use of a single Mailtrap Account. “Mailtrap” referred to herein means an online fake SMTP server for testing, viewing, and sharing emails as well as a platform, that allows sending real transactional or relationship Content, and messages with commercial Content. The Service may contain information, data, text, photographs, videos, audio clips, written posts and comments, software, scripts, graphics, and interactive features generated, provided, or otherwise made accessible on or through the Service (collectively, “Content”). Subject to these Terms of Service, Mailtrap grants to You and each user of the Service a worldwide, non-exclusive, non-sublicensable, and non-transferable license to use (i.e., to download and display locally) Content solely for purposes of using the Service. Use, reproduction, modification, distribution, or storage of any Content for other than purposes of using the Service is expressly prohibited without prior written permission from us. You shall not sell, license, rent, or otherwise use or exploit any Content for commercial use or in any way that violates any third-party right. For the purposes of these Terms of Service, “Content” also includes all User Content (as defined below).

A “Mailtrap Account” or “Account” referred to herein means a service or website, provided by Mailtrap, where You may use Mailtrap to create, update, share, and send data, text, messages, or other materials (“User Content”).

Without limiting the foregoing, the Service is not designed or licensed for use in hazardous environments requiring fail-safe controls, including without limitation operation of nuclear facilities, aircraft navigation/communication systems, air traffic control, and life support or weapons systems.

Unless explicitly stated otherwise, any new features that augment or enhance the current Service, including the release of new tools and resources, shall be subject to the Agreement. In order to use the Service, You must obtain access to the World Wide Web, either directly or through devices that access web-based content, and pay any service fees associated with such access. In addition, You must provide all equipment necessary to make such a connection to the World Wide Web, including a computer and modem or other access device. You also understand and agree that the Service may include certain communications from Mailtrap, such as service announcements, administrative messages, etc., and that these communications are considered part of the Service and You will not be able to opt out of receiving them. You agree not to access the Service by any means other than through the interfaces that are provided by Mailtrap for use in accessing the Service. Mailtrap will provide the Service in accordance with this Agreement. Mailtrap may at its sole discretion modify the features of the Service from time to time without prior notice.

Registration

In order to use the Service, You must have a valid Account. To acquire an Account for the Service, You must provide Mailtrap with an electronic mail address and other information (“Registration Data”). You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of the access data for Your Account and are fully responsible for all activities that occur under Your Account. You agree to (a) immediately notify Mailtrap of any unauthorized use of Your Account or any other breach of security, and (b) ensure that You exit from Your Account at the end of each session. Mailtrap cannot and will not be liable for any loss or damage arising from Your failure to comply with this section. In consideration of the use of the Service, You agree to (a) provide true, accurate, current, and complete information about Yourself as prompted by the Service’s registration form, and (b) maintain and promptly update the Registration Data to keep it true, accurate, current and complete. Mailtrap assumes no duty to verify such information as further detailed in the CONTENT OF THE SERVICE section of these Terms of Service. If You provide any information that is untrue, inaccurate, not current, or incomplete, or Mailtrap has reasonable grounds to suspect that such information is untrue, inaccurate, not current, or incomplete, Mailtrap has the right to suspend or terminate Your Account and refuse any and all current or future use of the Service (or any portion thereof). By using the Service (and registering an Account on the Service), You represent and warrant that You are at least 13 years of age. No one under the age of 13 may use the Service. Mailtrap may, at its sole discretion, refuse to offer the Service to any person or entity and change its eligibility criteria at any time. You are solely responsible for ensuring that these Terms of Service are in compliance with all laws, rules, and regulations applicable to you and the right to access the Service is revoked where these Terms of Service or use of the Service is prohibited or to the extent offering, sale or provision of the Service conflicts with any applicable law, rule or regulation.

Billing/Payment Terms


Additional groupings of features may be added to the Service and made available to You as a paid upgrade (“Paid Plan”). If You choose to subscribe to a Paid Plan, You shall pay fees (described below) to Mailtrap. Upon selection of a Paid Plan, You will provide Mailtrap with the necessary billing information (“Billing Data”).

Credit cards are the main payment mechanism Mailtrap will accept for payment of a subscription fee (“Subscription Fee”) for a Paid Plan. For the annual Subscription Fee, Mailtrap allows ACH as an alternative payment method. All currency references are in U.S. dollars. Paid Plans can be paid as a monthly or annual Subscription Fee.

If you select a Paid Plan, You must provide current, complete, and accurate Billing Data. You must promptly update all Billing Data to keep Your Account current, complete, and accurate (such as a change in billing address, credit card number, or credit card expiration date) and You must promptly notify Mailtrap if Your Payment Method is changed (for example, for loss or theft) or if You become aware of a potential breach of security, such as the unauthorized disclosure or use of Your name or password. If You fail to provide any of the foregoing information, You agree that Mailtrap may continue charging You for any use of the Paid Plan under your Billing Data unless You have terminated Your Paid Plan as set forth herein.

The credit card that You provide as part of the Billing Data will be automatically and immediately billed on the first Business Day of each billing period. You agree that Mailtrap may charge to Your credit card all amounts due and owing for Your Account on that billing period basis or upon cancellation (see “Termination, Breach, Suspension and Cancellation” and “Refund”). Mailtrap will contact You via electronic mail to alert You upon each charge. Mailtrap may change prices at any time without prior notice but will endeavor to provide reasonable advance notice via the Mailtrap website and/or electronic mail. You agree that in the event Mailtrap is unable to collect the fees owed to Mailtrap for Your Account through Your Subscription Fee, Mailtrap may take any other steps it deems necessary to collect such fees from You and that You will be responsible for all costs and expenses incurred by Mailtrap in connection with such collection activity, including collection fees, court costs, and attorneys’ fees.

As long as Your Account remains active and in good standing, You will be charged the Subscription Fee even if You never use the service. You may, however, cancel Your Paid Plan at any time.

Subscription Fees are exclusive of any applicable taxes, levies, duties, or other similar exactions imposed by a legal, governmental, or regulatory authority in any applicable jurisdiction, including, without limitation, sales, use, value-added, consumption, communications, or withholding taxes (collectively, “Taxes”). You will pay all taxes associated with this Agreement excluding any taxes based on our net income.

Mailtrap Free and Individual pricing plans are intended to evaluate Mailtrap or to apply it to a User’s personal side project only. Free and Individual pricing plans cannot be used by multiple Users related to 1 customer (or organization). For commercial usage or use of Mailtrap by multiple Users related to 1 customer (or organization), such customer (organization) has to subscribe to a Team or higher pricing plan.

Termination, Breach, Suspension and Cancellation

If Your Subscription Fee payment is overdue, Mailtrap will disable Your access to the features provided by the Paid Plan. Mailtrap may, at its sole discretion, at any time and for any reason, terminate the Service, terminate this Agreement, or suspend or terminate Your Account. In the event of suspension or termination, Your account will be disabled and You may not be granted access to Your Account or any files or other Content (including Your User Content) contained in Your Account, Mailtrap may delete Your User Content, although residual copies of information may remain in our system for some time for back-up purposes. In the event of termination, Mailtrap may also withdraw and at its discretion reallocate the public web address of Your Account.

If You terminate Your Account, via means provided for cancellation on the Mailtrap website, or via telephone call or electronic mail to Mailtrap, and You request that Mailtrap delete Your User Content and files contained in Your Account, Mailtrap will make all reasonable efforts to do so.

Proper Use

Mailtrap does not claim ownership over any User Content submitted on or through the Service. Your User Content belongs to You. However, by uploading any User Content to the Service, You agree that Mailtrap may store and display (only to You, to the extent that You make such User Content private) Your User Content solely as necessary in connection with the Service. To the extent You choose to share any of Your User Content with other users of the Service, You agree to allow these users (i.e., only the users You specify) to view Your User Content and, to the extent applicable, collaborate with You and Your User Content.

You understand that all User Content is the sole responsibility of the person from which such User Content originated. This means that You, and not Mailtrap, are entirely responsible for all User Content that You upload, post, transmit, or otherwise make available via Your Account. Mailtrap does not control the User Content posted via the Service and, as such, does not guarantee the accuracy, integrity or quality of such User Content.

You understand that by using the Service, You may be exposed to User Content that is offensive, indecent, or objectionable. Under no circumstances will Mailtrap be liable in any way for any User Content, including, but not limited to, for any errors or omissions in any Content, or for any loss or damage of any kind incurred as a result of the use of any Content posted, transmitted or otherwise made available via the Service. You acknowledge that Mailtrap does not pre-screen User Content, but that Mailtrap and its designees shall have the right (but not the obligation) in their sole discretion to refuse, modify, or move any Content that is available via the Service. Without limiting the foregoing, Mailtrap and its designees shall have the right to remove any User Content that violates the Agreement or is otherwise objectionable. You agree that You must evaluate, and bear all risks associated with, the use of any Content, including any reliance on the accuracy, completeness, or usefulness of such Content. In this regard, You acknowledge that You may not reasonably rely on any Content created by Mailtrap or submitted to Mailtrap. You acknowledge and agree that Mailtrap may preserve User Content and may also disclose User Content if required to do so by law or in the good faith belief that such preservation or disclosure is reasonably necessary to:

  1. comply with legal process;
  2. enforce the Agreement;
  3. respond to claims that any Content violates the rights of third-parties; or
  4. protect the rights, property, or personal safety of Mailtrap, its users and the public.

If Mailtrap discloses User Content to comply with legal process or respond to claims that any User Content violates the rights of third parties, to the extent permitted by law, regulation, or legal process, Mailtrap agrees to provide You with prompt notice of any such legal or governmental demand and reasonably cooperate with You in any effort to seek a protective order or otherwise to contest such required disclosure.

You understand that the technical processing and transmission of the Service, including Your User Content, may involve (a) transmissions over various networks; and (b) changes to conform and adapt to the technical requirements of connecting networks or devices.

  1. upload, post, transmit or otherwise make available any User Content that is unlawful, harmful, threatening, abusive, harassing, tortuous, defamatory, vulgar, obscene, libelous, invasive of another’s privacy (up to, but not excluding any address, email, phone number, or any other contact information without the written consent of the owner of such information), hateful, or racially, ethnically or otherwise objectionable;
