[Chargeable Contents]
You can purchase a utilization right for a chargeable content (slot or other contents) at a price set by Mooklet.
Even though indications such as “Buy” and “Sell” are presented on a screen of the Service, the intellectual property rights and other rights in connection with the chargeable content are not transitioned to you and are reserved by us. You are only given a right for utilizing the chargeable content within a predetermined range.
Details of a right to be given to you by a chargeable content are set for each content at our end and are displayed on the screen of the Service. A utilization right for a chargeable content without an expiry date continues, in principle, until you stop using the Service or we stop providing the Service. It should be noted that when determined necessary for operation of the Service, we may set an expiry date for any content by notifying you on the screen of the Service one month before the expiry date to be set. In this case, the utilization right for the chargeable content is deemed as being extinguished on the expiry date. No consideration for the extinguished utilization right will be provided in this case.
Utilization rights for all the contents given to a user ID unused for one year or longer since the last login or a user ID of a user who quits using the Service can be canceled for free of charge at our end without the user's consent.
Utilization rights for chargeable contents are given based on a user ID as a unit. A user ID other than a user ID given a utilization right for a chargeable content cannot utilize the chargeable content. Further, unless following a procedure we determine separately, you are not permitted to transition or assign a utilization right of a chargeable content to a user ID other than the user ID given the utilization right.
In the event that a user ID is suspended or deregistered in response to the user's prohibited activity with regard to a chargeable content used by the user, the utilization right will be canceled. No monetary refund will be made even if requested during an effective period of the chargeable content.
We may stop accepting registration for utilization of a chargeable content or may defer registration for chargeable utilization in any one of the following cases:
1. Resource for the Service is insufficient;
2. A technical trouble takes place;
3. It is difficult for us to accept and approve the registration for convenience of business; and
4. It is determined that the registration should not be accepted and approved.
