a.         Month-to-month. With a month-to-month subscription, you will be charged the monthly price stated in the Order Form plus applicable Taxes, every month, until you cancel.  The Services begin as soon as your initial payment is processed.

However, your payment is non-refundable and your service will continue until the end of that month’s billing period. You may increase the quantity of the Services ordered during the Term of a Subscription.  Additional quantities of Services added to a Subscription are priced at the rates available at the time of purchase and prorated based on the days remaining in the month’s billing period. We encourage you not to decrease the quantity of Services until your subscription renewal date, as we will be unable to credit you for any quantity of Services you remove mid-cycle.

b.         Annual subscription. With an annual subscription, you will be charged the annual price stated in the Order Form as one lump sum, plus applicable Taxes. Your Subscription will renew automatically, on your annual renewal date, unless you notify us in writing at least 30 days before the annual renewal date that you wish to cancel the Subscription.. Thereafter, you can cancel the Subscription at any time. However, any prepaid payment is non-refundable and your service will continue until the end of your annual subscription. You may increase the quantity of the Services ordered during the Term of a Subscription.  Additional quantities of Services added to a Subscription are priced at the rates available at the time of purchase and prorated based on the days remaining in your annual subscription.  We encourage you not to decrease the quantity of Services until your subscription renewal date, as we will be unable to credit you for any quantity of Services you remove mid-cycle.
