Terms
Welcome to Capsa, and thank you for choosing us. Before you can start using our service we need you to read and accept these terms. It’s not a particularly thrilling read, but they are important. We have tried to make the terms as simple to understand as possible. If you can’t agree to our terms, we’re afraid we won’t be able to offer you our services.
