  9. SUBSCRIPTION  
  10. Subscribers. This Section 6 – in addition to the entirety of this Agreement – applies to you if you subscribe to the Services.  All users desiring to access the Services must subscribe to such Services. All persons using the Services, including those persons using the Services on a trial or free-of-cost basis, shall hereinafter be referred to a “Subscribers.”  
  11. Use of Services. The Company grants each Subscriber a nonexclusive, nontransferable, and limited license to access to use the Services only as expressly permitted by this Agreement. The Services are solely and exclusively for your use (except as otherwise expressly permitted herein) and shall not be used for any illegal purpose or in any manner inconsistent with the provisions of this Agreement. You may use Information made available via the Services solely for personal, non-commercial use.  

 

Your subscription is personal to you, the Subscriber. You may not transfer or share your subscription with another person, other than immediate family members living in the same household, provide that: (i) each such family member reads and agrees to be bound by this Agreement; (ii) your subscription is not simultaneously used by more than one person at any given time; (iii) you agree to be responsible for any use of the Services by such family member(s); and, (iv) the family member is at least 18 at years of age at the time of the transfer of the subscription.  

 

  1. Registration Form. To obtain a subscription and become a Subscriber, you must register for the Services by completing the online registration form. Your subscription will not be valid, and you will not become a Subscriber, until the Company accepts you completed registration form. By completing the registration form and subscribing for the Services, you, the Subscriber, represent and warrant that all registration information that you provide is true, complete, and accurate, and you agree to notify the Company of any changes to this registration information.  
  2. Automatic Renewal of Services.  You may be offered a free trial subscription to the Services and this free trial subscription will normally begin on the date on which the Company accepts your completed registration. UNLESS CANCELLED BY YOU OR THE COMPANY DURING THIS TRIAL PERIOD, THE INITIAL TERM OF YOUR REGULAR PAID SUBSCRIPTION WILL START IMMEDIATELY AFTER THE FREE TRIAL PERIOD ENDS AND WILL CONTINUE FOR THE LENGTH OF TIME THAT YOU SELECTED WHEN YOU REGISTERED. If you have ever taken a free trial to the Services, you will not be eligible to receive another free trial. Instead, the initial term of your subscription will begin immediately upon the Company accepting your registration and your credit card will be charged for the subscription fee associated with the term length you selected when you registered. 

 

In those instances where you subscribe to the Services using a special or introductory offer, unless you notify us that you wish to cancel your subscription before the end of its initial term, your subscription will automatically renew for the period of time specified in that offer and your credit card will be charged the subscription fee in effect at the time for that subscription term length. 

Other than as described elsewhere in this section, unless you notify us that you wish to cancel your subscription before the end of its then-current subscription term, your subscription will continue to automatically renew for successive terms of the same duration and your credit card will be charged for each such renewal at the subscription fee in effect at the time of that renewal. 

 

  1. Changes to the Services. The Company reserves the right to change the Services at any time without notice (including but not limited to adding or removing Information). If you are dissatisfied with any such changes, or if you are otherwise dissatisfied with the Services (including but not limited to its performance or availability), your only remedy is to cancel your subscription as set for the below.  
  2. Fees and Billing Practices. In exchange for access to the Services, each Subscriber shall pay a subscription fee of $29.99 every month (the “Fee”). Fees on credit-card transactions are authorized immediately, but not actually processed until any applicable limited time free trial period has expired. The Company plans to engage Stripe, Inc. a third-party payment processor, to provide subscription management and Fee processing services. The Company reserves the right to engage a different payment processor in its discretion.  

 

The Company reserves the right to change the Fees it charges for its Services at any time and upon notice to Subscribers. These sorts of changes include, but are not limited to, adding fees for new/optional Services and/or modifying fees for existing Services. By using any of the Services, with which there are associated fees, you agree to pay those fees. If you do not want to pay these associated fees, you must cancel your subscription, as set forth below. For absence of doubt, if the Company increases the Fee at some point during a Subscriber’s then-current subscription term, that increased Fee will only apply to a Subscriber upon the next renewal, if any, of your subscription. 

Fees and all other fees and charges associated with your subscription (including, but not limited to, any applicable federal, state, and local taxes) will be billed automatically to the credit card you provide when registering for the Services (“your credit card”). If your credit card is a VISA or MasterCard and the number or expiration date for your credit card changes for any reason (for instance, you get a new number because your old card expired, was stolen, etc.), that updated information may be automatically passed on from your credit card issuer to Stripe or the Company, and if we do receive such information, it will be treated by Stripe or the Company as if it were originally furnished by you. To learn more about this pass-along service being provided by your credit card issuer, please contact it directly. 

While you are a Subscriber, you must promptly notify the Company if any information you provided to us related to your credit card — for instance, your billing address — changes or is no longer valid for any reason. Absent such notification, the Company will assume that all of the information related to your credit card remains valid and will submit to the card processor all information that it requires for approval, both when you initially subscribe and, if applicable, upon the commencement of any renewal of that subscription. If any Fees or other charges billed to your credit card are declined for any reason, the Company shall have the right to suspend your subscription until such Fees or other charges are paid in full. You agree to pay all costs (including attorneys’ fees) incurred by the Company in collecting any unpaid Fees or other charges from you.  

 

  1. Cancellation. You may cancel your subscription by sending an email to [email protected]

 

If you cancel your subscription during your free trial period, you will not be responsible for the payment of a subscription fee. However, except as otherwise provided herein, if you cancel your subscription at any time after your trial period expires, your subscription to the Services will continue in effect until the next monthly anniversary of the effective date of your paid subscription. (For example, if your paid subscription start date is on January 1 and you cancel it on June 15, your subscription remains in effect until July 1, at which time it ends.) For those with yearly or multi-year subscriptions, any remaining prepaid charges will be refunded, prorated on a monthly basis, to your credit card after your subscription ends. 

The Company may at any time immediately cancel your subscription, without notice or liability, if it determines in its sole discretion that: (i) you have breached any portion of this Agreement; or (ii) your use of or access to the Services or any other portion of the Website or App violates any applicable law or regulation or otherwise inhibits any other Subscriber from using or accessing any portion of the Services, Website, or App. Upon such cancellation, you will have no further right to access or use any portion of the Services. None of the foregoing limits any other legal, equitable, or contractual rights available to the Company. 

The Company may, in its sole discretion, choose not to renew your subscription by sending a notice of non-renewal at any time during your subscription term to the e-mail address you provided when completing your registration. You will be deemed to have received this notice, whether or not you saw it or the e-mail address provided by you continues to be valid. In the event of such a notice, your subscription will cease and will not automatically renew at the end of your then-current subscription term. 

If you purchased the Services via the Apple In-App Purchase (IAP) mechanism, then, subject to applicable law, you may only cancel your subscription through Apple. Please direct all questions regarding the status of your account to Apple and reference your Apple ID.
