By registering as a Cost2Profit user or by using Cost2Profit, the Client agrees to be bound by these terms of service (the “Terms and Conditions”). These Terms and Conditions are effective as of the date of the Client’s registration as a Cost2Profit user. The integral part of these Terms and Conditions is Cost2Profit’s Data Processing Agreement and End User Privacy Policy.

Description
Cost2Profit platform is a proprietary web application for measuring web traffic and reporting, which is hosted on Cost2Profit’s servers and made available to the Clients through the website: cost2profit.com (the “Website”). To use Cost2Profit an internet connection and a web browser with Java support is required. To purchase the use of Cost2Profit services (the “Subscription”), the Client has to in particular choose relevant conditions on which it wants to have access to these services (the: “Plan”).
Access
- Cost2Profit grants to the Client a non-exclusive, non-assignable, and non-transferable right during the Term (as defined in section “Term” below) to use Cost2Profit in accordance with all of the conditions set forth herein.
- Before issuing the first invoice by Cost2Profit, the Client is obliged to state its company name (including the company’s legal form), an address of the company, TAX/VAT ID, a first and last name of the person authorized to register an account on behalf of and for the Client, as well as contact data of the Client.
- Access to Cost2Profit requires logging in using the Client’s email address and password. The Client’s email address shall be the one set up on the Client’s website domain name. Otherwise the person registering the Cost2Profit account shall prove on request from Cost2Profit (especially by sending a written authorization) that she/he is entitled to act on behalf of and for the Client. Cost2Profit can demand such proof at any time.
- The Client is solely responsible for their use of Cost2Profit. The Client shall not permit any third party to use or gain access to Cost2Profit and shall use reasonable security measures to protect against unauthorized usage and/or access. The Client is solely responsible for use of the Cost2Profit by their employees or any unauthorized person.
- Cost2Profit shall not access the Clients’ accounts for purposes other than administrative or support.
- As a general rule, any Client can have only one account at the same time unless otherwise agreed by Cost2Profit. The owner of the account is the Client that data is provided according to the “Access” section of these Terms and Conditions and indicated on the invoices issued by Cost2Profit. The Client must not open a new account if there is any outstanding balance for the Cost2Profit use. If it does, however, it authorizes Cost2Profit to charge the amount due to a previous account from the Client’s credit card connected with the new account. Cost2Profit is obliged to start provision of the Cost2Profit services only if all due amounts are paid by the Client.
- If the person acting on behalf of one Client, will open a new Cost2Profit account on behalf of another Client, Cost2Profit can refuse to provide Cost2Profit services for that other Client at its sole discretion. The second Client shall have no claims against Cost2Profit related to refusal to provide services.
- Any Client is obliged to use its business credit cards with regard to chosen payment method. If the Client choose the consumer card instead of business credit card, it undertakes to repay Cost2Profit all costs, expenses or lost benefits connected with payments made by a consumer card as well as it waives its right to claim damages, especially in the amount of commission paid in the higher amount that stated in the relevant law provisions. The Client also authorizes Cost2Profit to charge relevant amounts from its credit card.
- In order to enable the Client to use Cost2Profit and handle the Clients’ campaigns, Cost2Profit provides the Client with a domain individually assigned to the Client’s account (the “Dedicated Domain”).
Cost2Profit is the sole owner of the Dedicated Domain. The Dedicated Domain is assigned to the Client solely for use of Cost2Profit services for the chosen Plan. The Client is not entitled to use the Dedicated Domain for purposes other than using Cost2Profit during the chosen Plan.
Cost2Profit reserves the right to refuse to grant the Client the Dedicated Domain or to block the Dedicated Domain if the Client breaches the Terms and Conditions, in particular if the Client uses the Dedicated Domain for illegal purposes. The Client is solely liable for all activities related to the Dedicated Domain, within all possible use, including content that the Dedicated Domain redirects to.
- Cost2Profit may equip the Dedicated Domain with an SSL certificate in order to use HTTPS in the Client’s campaigns using the Dedicated Domain. Cost2Profit is a sole owner of an SSL certificate.
Cost2Profit reserves the right to choose an SSL certificate for the Dedicated Domain, what the Client accepts. The Client is not entitled to request that Cost2Profit shall choose an SSL certificate specified by the Client.
The Client will be entitled to use an SSL certificate within the Dedicated Domain for the term of the Plan exclusively for using Cost2Profit. The Client is not authorized to use this certificate for any other purposes.
The Client is solely responsible for the use of the SSL certificate and for ensuring compliance with the Terms and Conditions and the provisions of applicable law.
Cost2Profit reserves the right to refuse to grant the Client an SSL certificate for the Dedicated Domain or to deactivate an SSL certificate if the Client does not use this certificate over 60 days or if the Client breaches the Terms and Conditions or uses an SSL certificate in the unlawful way.
- Cost2Profit provides the Client with a possibility to add their own domain to the Client’s account (the “Custom Domain”) as well as with a possibility of using a SSL for the Custom Domain. The feature might be an additional package not included in the pricing plan (for more information, go to ‘Pricing’ section).
- In order to upgrade to the custom Plan with the Custom Domain and the SSL for the Custom Domain, the Client needs to follow the instructions included in doc.Cost2Profit.com in section ‘Enabling SSL Custom Domain’. In particular, the Custom Domain should be CNAME’d to the Dedicated Domain in order to work properly. By CNAME’ing the Custom Domain to the Dedicated Domain by the Client for use of Cost2Profit services, the Client authorizes Cost2Profit to request for the SSL certificate in order to use HTTPS in the Client’s campaigns using the Custom Domain, on the Client’s demand. In order to start using the SSL certificate for the Custom Domain, the Client has to request it manually using the Cost2Profit panel.
- Upgrading to the custom Plan (with the SSL certificate for the Custom Domain) may require an additional monthly payment (for more information, go to ‘Pricing’ section).
- The Client is the sole owner of the Custom Domain.
- The Client can use the Custom Domain with the SSL solely for use of Cost2Profit services by the Client for the term of the Plan.. The Client is not entitled to use the Custom Domain for purposes other than using Cost2Profit during the term of the Plan. Cost2Profit reserves the right to refuse the Client’s request for using the Custom Domain or block the Custom Domain from Cost2Profit services if the Client breaches the Terms and Conditions, in particular if the Client uses the Custom Domain for illegal purposes. The Client is solely liable for all activities related to the Custom Domain, within all possible use, including content that Custom Domain redirects to.
- The Client can delete or replace the Custom Domain with the SSL certificate within the duration of the Plan only upon Cost2Profit’s prior approval. Such changes (deletion or replacement of the Custom Domain for which the SSL certificate was issued) may require an additional payment as set out on a case by case basis by Cost2Profit. Cost2Profit reserves also the right to refuse the Client’s request for deletion or replacing the Custom Domain, to which the SSL certificate was issued, to another/new Custom Domain, for any reason that Cost2Profit finds valid, including but not limited to where the Client’s request for changing or replacing the Custom Domain took place more than once in the billing period. In order to get more information in this matter the Client should contact Cost2Profit’s Customer Support Team.
- Cost2Profit reserves the right to choose an SSL certificate for the Custom Domain. The Client is not entitled to demand that Cost2Profit chooses an SSL certificate specified by the Client. The Client is entitled to use the SSL certificate issued for the Custom Domain within the duration of the Plan exclusively for using Cost2Profit. The Client is not authorized to use this certificate for any other purposes.
- The Client is solely responsible for the use of the SSL certificate and for ensuring compliance with the Terms and Conditions and the provisions of applicable law.
- Cost2Profit reserves the right to refuse the Client’s request for the SSL certificate for the Custom Domain. Cost2Profit has the right to deactivate the SSL certificate when the Client does not use this certificate over 60 days or if the Client breaches the Terms and Conditions or uses the SSL certificate in an unlawful way.

To prevent the automatic renewal, the Client is required to provide written notice of its intent to not renew the Subscription, no less than sixty (60) days prior to the end of the current Plan. The Subscription Fee for any Plan (including annual or longer) is non-refundable if the Client terminates the Agreement.

In no case while using Cost2Profit services, the Client is entitled to a refund of any expenses, costs or other amounts incurred by the Client due to the use of services provided by Cost2Profit, especially to refund of the Subscription Fee if the Client terminates the Subscription earlier than on the end of a period of the chosen Plan.
- According to the relevant payment providers’ policies some of the transactions may demand Strong Customer Authentication (SCA), which means that electronic payment is performed with multi-factor authentication to increase the security of such a payment.
- By accepting the Terms and Conditions, the Client concludes with Cost2Profit the agreement on which basis it authorises Cost2Profit to charge each month variable recurring amounts from the Client’s card in order to the payment of Subscription Fee and prospective Overages amounts without further action required from the Client (merchant-initiated transactions). In this case, only the first transaction shall generally demand SCA.
- Variable recurring amounts are charged from the Client’s card on the basis of the chosen Plan and the amount of Overages calculated according to point 3 of the Payment section above.
- The type of used multi-factor authentication as well as demanding SCA in any case depends on the policy of the relevant payment provider that is used by the Client to make a payment.
- The implementation of requirements regarding SCA may also lead to processing an increased amount of the Client’s Personal Data by these payment providers and transferring the increased amount of the one by Cost2Profit to these payment providers, so it is recommended to respectively review the privacy policies available on their websites as well as the Privacy Policy of Cost2Profit.
