9. PURCHASE OF VIRTUAL CURRENCY

The purchase of Virtual Currency is a purchase of a limited, non-transferable, revocable license. The license may be terminated immediately by MeetMe without notice, refund or compensation if: (1) your account is terminated for any reason, in MeetMe's sole and absolute discretion, or (2) MeetMe imposes an expiration date of the usage of Virtual Currency in compliance with applicable laws and regulations. Purchases of Virtual Currency are non-refundable for any monetary sum at any time. Virtual Currency has no redeemable value and cannot be returned or refunded once purchased. MeetMe makes no guarantee as to the availability of Virtual Currency, or the features, services, or merchandise available for purchase with Virtual Currency.
Every order you place for Virtual Currency through MeetMe will be deemed your offer to purchase Virtual Currency. We may accept your offer through delivery of the Virtual Currency purchased and deposited into your Virtual Currency account. Our acceptance of each order for Virtual Currency is expressly subject to and conditional upon your acceptance of these TOS and the Service Conditions, and our determination that the offer is based upon a legitimate intent to purchase. Purchased Virtual Currency will be available for use as soon as reasonably practicable.
All prices we show on MeetMe for Virtual Currency or use or access to features or merchandise are subject to change without notice. Prices stated at beginning of delivery apply. Virtual Currency purchased must be used exclusively on MeetMe to exchange for virtual merchandise or to use one of the features on MeetMe. By agreeing to these TOS and completing a purchase transaction, you agree to pay for such Virtual Currency and that we may charge your selected payment method to collect any such payments. All inquiries, including disputes, related to your purchase of Virtual Currency on MeetMe must be directed to our Member Services group. Disputes, including the request for a refund or chargeback, processed through your credit card company or phone carrier may result in the immediate termination or suspension of your account. Upon termination or suspension, any remaining Lunch Money or Credits balance in your account will be forfeited.
MeetMe may offer the ability for Members to have their Credits balance automatically replenished (“topped-up”) when they reach a certain set threshold, using your most recent payment method. By confirming a Credits purchase while keeping the opt-in box checked at the time of purchase, you agree to pay for any future Credits purchase triggered by this automatic top-up feature and that we may charge your selected payment method to collect any such payments. You will be automatically topped-up when your Credits balance falls below 50 Credits. Credit card data is never stored on MeetMe servers, and all repeat transactions are facilitated by our payment partners. Our payment partners retain and store your personal data according to our Privacy Policy. You may opt out of this feature at any time via the Credits Settings page.
If you leave a balance of Virtual Currency unused for a period of time set forth by your state, country, or other governing body in its unclaimed property laws, or if you delete your account and leave a Virtual Currency balance, or if we deactivate your account and you do not meet any conditions necessary to reinstate it within six months, we may process your balance in accordance with our legal obligations, including by submitting funds associated with your Virtual Currency balance to the appropriate governing body where required by law.
