Subscription with WSTS

Subscription Bundle and Period

WSTS offers only the entire information package as defined at the bottom of this page in form of an annual subscription. A subscription is offered for the period of 12 month starting with January of a calendar year and ending with December of the same year. While a subscription may be entered at any time during the calendar year WSTS does not offer pro-rated subscription fees.

A subscription that ends with a calendar year will not automatically extend into the following year. The subscriber will have to order another subscription for the following year, most recommendable not later than early December to avoid an interruption in information flow. A subscription once entered and paid for a calendar year cannot be terminated before its completion and no reimbursement for discontinued use of WSTS infomations will be granted by WSTS.

Price of an Annual Subscription

The price for a subscription in 2022 is US$30,000

For this purpose WSTS will assign up to 24 User Names and Passwords to employees of the Subscriber's Corporation. All logins will be recorded and monitored. No sharing of access credentials (User Names and Passwords) is permitted and the subscribing Corporation is responsible to set appropriate measures to prevent misappropriation of WSTS prorietary data. Any redistribution of WSTS proprietary data outside the subscriber's organization is strictly prohibited and occurrence of such redistribution by inadvertence or tortuous conduct will be prosecuted. Upon any instance of misappropriation of WSTS proprieatary information WSTS will immediately suspend access to WSTS data without any reimbursement of already paid subscription fees. Apart from that WSTS reserves the right to claim for damage.

WSTS reports are issued according to the publication schedule as posted on the WSTS Internet Portal. Publication dates quoted therein refer to the dates when these reports are issued to WSTS member companies.
