Your account allows you to participate in certain Services, subject to the Terms and the Privacy Policy. Wackystuff reserves the right to refuse to allow a user to open an account for any reason, or to limit the number of accounts a user can establish on the Site, all at Wackystuff’s sole discretion.

To create an account, you may be asked to select a username and password. Your username is your Flipbookit.com identity.

You may not provide false information during the registration process. You must provide truthful and accurate information while creating your account.
You should not reveal your password to other users. Wackystuff will not ask you to reveal your password. If you forget your password, you can request to have a new password sent to your registered e-mail address.

You agree to immediately notify Wackystuff of any unauthorized use of your Wackystuff account or password. You are fully and solely responsible for the security of your computer system and all activity on your account, even if such activities were not committed by you. Wackystuff will not be liable for any losses or damage arising from unauthorized use of your account or password, and you agree to indemnify and hold Wackystuff harmless for any improper or illegal use of your account, including any mail sent and any charges and taxes incurred, unless you have notified us via e-mail to customersupport@flipbookit.com that your account has been compromised, and have requested us to block access to it.
