spamicity.info

Summary

We, E14N, provide spamicity.info, a social-spam filtering service (“Service”). During our beta period anyone can use it for free, but at some point we'll ask commercial social networks that make a lot of requests to pay a reasonable monthly subscription.

We intend the service to help social network owners keep their networks free of spam. We would be delighted if you use the service in ways we don't expect. However, you may not use the service to help send spam or to prevent spam detection by our other users.

We don't promise that the service will detect all spam, nor that it will correctly classify non-spam. We can't guarantee up-time for non-paying users.

Upgrade fees are not refundable.
    • Automatic Renewal.
      Unless you notify Owner before the end of the applicable subscription period that you want to cancel an Upgrade, your Upgrade subscription will automatically renew and you authorize us to collect the then-applicable annual or monthly subscription fee for such Upgrade (as well as any taxes) using any credit card or other payment mechanism we have on record for you.
