Privacy Policy
You acknowledge that you have read the Privacy Policy https://heybabbl.ca/privacy-policy/ as it may be updated from time to time (the “Privacy Policy”), and hereby consent to the collection, use, and disclosure by us and our agents of your personal information (whether previously collected or to be collected) for the purposes identified therein. You also consent to our use of such personal information in accordance with applicable terms and conditions contained in these Terms and such Privacy Policy, https://heybabbl.ca/privacy-policy/ which is incorporated herein by reference and forms an integral part hereof.
Your Account
Your use of the Services will require an account identifying you as a user (an “Account”). When you create an Account, you will be asked to provide certain information, which will be subject to our Privacy Policy.
In connection with your Account, you are solely responsible for (i) your Account and the maintenance, confidentiality, and security of your Account and all passwords related to your Account; and (ii) any and all activities that occur under your Account, including all activities of any persons who gain access to your account, with or without your permission.
You must not register for an Account on behalf of any individual other than yourself or register for an account on behalf of any group or non-individual entity unless you are duly authorized to do so by such group or entity. You represent and warrant that you have reached the age of majority in the province or territory in which you reside and that you possess the right and ability to enter into the Agreement for the Services.
You agree to immediately notify us of (i) any unauthorized use of your Account, any service provided through your Account or any password related to your Account, or (ii) any other breach of security with respect to your Account or any service provided through it, and (iii) you agree to provide assistance to us, as requested, to stop or remedy any breach of security related to your Account.

We may assign to you, or you may create, a password and account identification to enable you to access and use certain portions of the Services. Each time you use a password or identification, you will be deemed to be authorized to access and use the Services in a manner consistent with these Terms and we have no obligation to investigate the authorization or source of any such access or use of the Services.
Billing and Payment
The Services are subject to payment of all applicable service rates and any additional charges identified to you in accordance with the Agreement (“Service Fees”).
Babbl will provide you with a monthly electronic bill, setting forth Service Fees. Alternatively, your monthly Service Fee statement will be sent in paper form if electronic billing is not available. If an electronic bill is made available, it is your responsibility to create, manage, and check your Account every month for your owing Service Fees. If your bill is lost or if you do not receive a bill, you are still responsible for making the required payments. All bills are due upon receipt. You acknowledge that bills made available in electronic form are deemed received when they are posted. Any questions or discrepancies regarding Service Fees must be reported to us within 30 days of the invoice statement, and failure to provide notice within this period will constitute your acceptance of the billed Service Fees.
Payment of Service Fees will require a credit card or an alternative pre-authorized payment method. You hereby authorize Babbl to charge that credit card or debit the relevant financial institution account, every time we invoice you a bill for up to the full amount of such bill. It is solely your responsibility to ensure that all credit card or equivalent information provided by you remains current and valid to allow Babbl to continue charging the Service Fees on a recurring basis. If your payment of the Service Fees are in arrears for 30 days or more, we may suspend or terminate your Services and Account without any further notice to you.
You acknowledge that administrative charges may be levied for account processing activities in connection with your Account as a result of returned or rejected payments due to non-sufficient funds or other reasons. Administrative charges may also be levied to your Account upon your request for restoral of any Services that have been suspended or terminated for any reason. You agree that Babbl may charge any such administrative costs to your credit card or other payment method pre-authorized by you for payment of the Service Fees.
You authorize Babbl to obtain information about your credit history from credit reporting agencies and others creditors from time to time.
Updates and Changes to the Services
We may, from time to time, in our sole discretion and without notice, develop and provide Service updates, which may include upgrades, bug fixes, patches, other error corrections, and/or new features (collectively, including related documentation, “Updates”).
