These user group designations are for convenience only and are not intended to otherwise limit the Terms.

3.1 – Your Account & Privacy
To access some of Our Services and certain features we offer, you may be asked to create an account by providing certain registration details or other information. If you create, or are provided with, a user name, password, or any other piece of information as part of our security procedures, you must treat such information as confidential, and you must not disclose it to any other person or entity. We reserve the right to disable any user name, password, or other identifier, whether chosen by you or provided by us, (collectively, the “Login Credentials”), at any time and in our sole discretion, if we believe you have violated any provision of these Terms. We also reserve the right to disable any Login Credentials at any time and in our sole discretion, for any or no reason.
You also acknowledge that your account is personal to you and agree not to provide any other person with access to Our Services using your Login Credentials. Without limiting the previous sentence, Contractors may allow, at their sole discretion, their employees, agents, independent contractors, or any other party who must use Contractors Login Credentials to access the Contractor’s account for implementation, technical difficulty, general maintenance, or any other service approved by the Contractor and ShipShape.
You agree to notify us immediately of any unauthorized access to or use of your user name or password, or any other breach of security. You also agree to ensure that you log out from your account at the end of each session. You should use particular caution when accessing your account from a public or shared computer so that others are not able to view or record your password or other personal information.
SHIPSHAPE.Pro, in its sole discretion, reserves the right to take any and all necessary actions under the Laws of the State of Massachusetts, Federal Law, or any other rule or regulation should it determine that you, your employees, agents, independent contractors, or any other party improperly uses your Login Credentials, regardless of whether the improper use resulted in commercial gain for you or the violator (“Unauthorized Access”). In the event of such Unauthorized Access, ShipShape reserves the right to suspend your access and use of Our Services immediately.
You may be able to upgrade your account from the free version of Our Services to a paid subscription, which offers access to additional features on some of Our Services (“Upgraded Accounts”). Upgraded Accounts may be subject to additional terms and conditions. In the event you wish to downgrade your Upgraded Account to a different paid subscription level or revert back to the free version, or you wish to delete your account altogether, you may request an account downgrade or deletion by contacting us at info@shipshape.pro. Our collection and use of your personal information, including any payment information, in connection with Our Services is provided in our Privacy Policy (“Privacy Policy”).
3.2 – Payments & Transactions
3.2.1 – Boater Charges & Payment Methods
As a Boater, you understand that use of Our Services may result in your making payments for the services you receive from Contractors (“Charges”). After you have received Contractor services through your use of Our Services, ShipShape will facilitate payment of the applicable Charges on behalf of the Contractor, as such Contractor’s limited payment collection agent. All Charges are due and payable immediately as of the date(s) and method(s) stated in the reservation confirmation. ShipShape will use the preferred payment method designated in your Boater account and will send you a receipt by email. Payment of the Charges in such a manner shall be considered the same as payment made directly by you to the Contractor.
SHIPSHAPE.Pro partners with companies (such as Stripe and Paypal) for payment processing. When you make a reservation, you’re also agreeing to the payment processor’s terms of service. SHIPSHAPE.Pro will take all reasonable steps to notify customers if changing payment processor(s) become necessary. If your primary payment method is determined to be expired, invalid, or otherwise unable to be charged, you agree that ShipShape may, as the Contractors limited payment collection agent, use a secondary payment method in your Boater account, if available. SHIPSHAPE.Pro may notify you if any of your payment methods are insufficient or need to be updated if payment fails at the time the payment is due. It is your sole responsibility to update and fully pay all balances due for services you receive through Our Services, and you acknowledge that SHIPSHAPE.Pro takes no part in and bears no responsibility for any portion of the transaction between you and the Contractor other than facilitating your payment.
Charges will be inclusive of applicable taxes where required by law. Charges paid by you are final and non-refundable, unless otherwise stated under the “Reservations & Cancellation Policies” section of these Terms or by SHIPSHAPE.Pro. You retain the right to request lower charges from a Contractor for services received by you from such Contractor at the time you receive the services.
Contractors reserve the right to modify charges should such Contractors determine that there is a discrepancy between the information you provided to make your reservation and the actual characteristics of your particular boat or vessel. For example, a discrepancy between your boat’s total length and the actual length as determined by the Contractor could result in an increased charge to use the services. SHIPSHAPE.Pro will respond accordingly to any request from a Contractor to modify the Charges for a particular service.
SHIPSHAPE.Pro reserves the right to establish, remove, or revise Charges for any or all aspects of Our Services at any time in SHIPSHAPE.Pro sole discretion. SHIPSHAPE.Pro will use reasonable efforts to inform you of Charges that may apply. You will be responsible for the Charges incurred under your Boater account regardless of your actual awareness of such Charges or their amounts. SHIPSHAPE.Pro may, from time to time, provide users with promotional offers and discounts that may result in alternate Charges for the same or similar Services. You agree that such promotional offers and discounts, unless made available to you, shall have no bearing on your use of Our Services or Charges applied to you. You may elect to cancel your request for services from a Contractor at any time prior to your use of such services, in which case you may still be charged a fee “Reservation & Cancellation Policies” section of these Terms.
3.2.2 – Boater Gratuities to Contractors
SHIPSHAPE.Pro payment facilitation is structured to fully compensate the Contractors for services provided. SHIPSHAPE.Pro does not designate any portion of your payment as a tip or gratuity to the Contractor or Contractor employees. Any representation by SHIPSHAPE.Pro, on Our Services or in SHIPSHAPE.Pro’s marketing materials to the effect that tipping is “voluntary,” “not required,” or “included” in the payments you make for Contractor services is not intended to suggest that SHIPSHAPE.Pro provides any additional amounts, beyond those described in these Terms, to the Contractor or Contractors employees.
You understand and agree that, while you are free to provide additional payment as gratuity directly to any Contractor or Contractor’s employee who provides you services obtained through Our Services, you are under no obligation to do so. All gratuities are voluntary. After you have received services obtained through Our Services, you will have the opportunity to leave feedback about your Contractor. In the event you feel unwelcomed pressure to provide a gratuity, you may factor that into the feedback you give. For additional information on how we use and process your payment method information, please refer to our Privacy Policy.
3.2.3 – Contractor Service Fees & Responsibilities
By using Our Services as a Contractor, you are appointing SHIPSHAPE.Pro as your payment agent in connection with transactions carried out through Our Services. Contractors agree to all payment terms and fees described in the Terms and in your SaaS Agreement (if applicable). In particular, Contractors agree to pay SHIPSHAPE.Pro’s applicable service fee for Our Services. This is inclusive of all credit card transaction fees.
Payment processing services for Contractors on SHIPSHAPE.Pro are provided by Stripe, Inc. (“Stripe”) and are subject to the Stripe Connected Account Agreement (currently viewable at https://stripe.com/us/connect-account/legal), which includes the Stripe terms of service (currently viewable at https://stripe.com/us/legal/) (collectively, the “Stripe Services Agreement”).
By using or continuing to operate as a Contractor on Our Services, you agree to be bound by the Stripe Services Agreement in addition to these Terms, as the same may be modified by Stripe from time to time. As with these Terms, the Stripe Services Agreement is subject to change at any time, so we encourage you to review the Stripe Services Agreement regularly. As a condition of SHIPSHAPE.Pro enabling payment processing services through Stripe, you agree to provide ShipShape accurate and complete information about you and your business, and you authorize ShipShape to share it and transaction information related to your use of the payment processing services provided by Stripe. For additional information on how we use and process your payment information, please refer to our Privacy Policy.
Contractors shall follow all federal, state and local laws, rules and regulations concerning their business, as required in the jurisdiction where they are physically located or where they directly or indirectly conduct business. SHIPSHAPE.Pro takes no part in and bears no responsibility for any portion of the transaction between you and the Boater other than facilitating payment.
As a Contractors, you are solely responsible for properly reporting taxable income made in connection with any reservations initiated through Our Services. You agree that we will have no liability relating to your failure to report any taxable income made in connection with any reservations initiated through the SHIPSHAPE.Pro Applications or to pay taxes on that income.

3.3 – Reservation & Cancellation Policies
SHIPSHAPE.Pro understands that your circumstances may change as a Boater or Contractor between the time of booking through Our Services and the use of a confirmed reservation. Contractors are each required to have a cancellation policy specific to their facility and the Boaters who make reservations with them through Our Services. Contractor cancellation policies are displayed and can be referenced under the cancellation policy section of Contractor listings on Our Services. The posted policies supersede any other cancellation policies and will be used to determine any refund eligibility upon cancellation of a confirmed reservation.
Contractors are required to honor all reservations made by Boaters through Our Services or any other reservation that originates as a result of Our Services. Further, SHIPSHAPE.Pro, in its sole discretion, may discontinue providing certain Contractors with access to or use of Our Services should SHIPSHAPE.Pro determine, in its sole discretion, that such Contractors have failed to honor any reservations.
