Terms and Conditions


Last Update: March 14, 2024

Welcome to BuddiesHR apps for Slack (the "Service"). By using the Service, you agree to the following terms and conditions (the "Terms"). Please read them carefully to understand your rights and restrictions, as well as our responsibilities. If you do not agree to these Terms, you may not use the Service.

Formation of Agreement and Parties

Unless the parties have mutually executed a separate agreement covering the use of the Service, these Terms and Conditions form a binding contract between Customer and BuddiesHR. In this document, “we,” “our,” and “us” refers to BuddiesHR and SAS The Jeffrey Company. as the company owning the product, while “Customer” or “you” refers to you (or, when applicable, the company or legal entity that you represent). The “Effective Date” of these Terms is the date of your first use of our website or BuddiesHR App for Slack. By using the Service, you agree that you have the authority to represent and bind the company or entity using BuddiesHR to these Terms.

Subscription and Access to the Service

Free plan and purchasing decision

A subscription allows you (and your authorized users) to access the Service. We have several types of subscriptions available, including a free plan. One person or legal entity is allowed to sign up for only one free plan. When you decide to buy a subscription to our Service, that decision should be based on the functionality or features available for paid plans at the moment of the payment.

Paid Plans

BuddiesHR has Pro and Enterprise paid subscription plans along with monthly payment schedules. The fees can be found on our website and must be paid in advance to get access to the functionality of the paid account.

By providing us with your credit card information you agree to the following terms and conditions:
  • (a) you have the right to provide this information to us;
  • (b) that you agree that we charge that card for the monthly fees, without any additional notice or consent;
  • (c) that the Service subscription is billed based on the number of active Slack users, so we are authorized to charge your credit card for those amounts;
  • (d) that you agree to keep your credit card information updated and valid.

Payment obligations are non-cancelable, and the fees paid are non-refundable. For clarity, we do not make any refunds for the period of time the Service was abandoned and not used by you and/or your entity. If you do not fulfill your payment obligations, we downgrade you to a free plan, so only the free plan functionality becomes available to you. The fees are stated exclusive of any taxes, duties, or other governmental deductions, for example, VAT, sales, or other taxes.

Auto-renewal and Suspension

Unless specified otherwise by the service order form, all subscriptions automatically renew for further subscription terms of equivalent length, unless one party gives written notice to the other via email or customer support form at least 1 (one) day before the end of that subscription term that it does not want the term to renew. SAS The Jeffrey Company reserves the right to suspend your ability to use the Service, without any liability, in case of the following circumstances:
  • (a) for scheduled or emergency Service maintenance;
  • (b) if we believe you are using the Service in violation of these Terms or applicable law or we believe that your use implies a security risk to us;
  • (c) if required by governmental agencies or law enforcement bodies.
Please note that uninstalling an application doesn't stop the subscription associated to it if any. Billing will continue unless you reach out to support asking for cancellation.

Affiliate Program

SAS The Jeffrey Company may offer an affiliate program to certain users, which allows users to earn a commission for promoting the Service to others. Users who participate in the affiliate program will receive 25% of the recurring revenue generated from their affiliate link. The minimum amount necessary for payment is $50. Professional users must provide an invoice to receive payment via PayPal transfer, while non-professional users will receive payment via Amazon gift card.

The affiliate program is intended for business purposes only, and should not be used for personal accounts. Any accounts associated with personal use will result in the removal of the affiliate account. To ensure the integrity of the affiliate program, SAS The Jeffrey Company will conduct checks on Slack registrations to verify that they are real and legitimate accounts.

SAS The Jeffrey Company respects the privacy of Slack workspaces installed from affiliate links and will not share any details about them.
