By accessing or using the service, you agree to be bound by the terms and conditions set forth below.  If you do not wish to be bound by these terms and conditions, you may not access or use the service. CREATETEXT may modify this agreement at any time, and such modifications shall be effective immediately upon posting of the modified agreement at the site.

CREATETEXT may from time to time provide additional services subject to charges according to the sole discretion of CREATETEXT.

2. USER ACCOUNT

By accepting these terms, you confirm that you are capable of entering into a binding agreement. You must accurately complete any subscriber information requested by CREATETEXT.

The User is entirely responsible for the privacy, confidentiality and storage of any email address and password used to access the system.
