The day on which you purchase a Subscription is the first day of your billing cycle (“Billing Date”). You can choose to subscribe on a recurring basis on the terms described on our pricing page. Your authorized payment method will be charged for the fee applicable to your Subscription on the Billing Date, and on each applicable renewal date thereafter, unless you cancel your Subscription using the process described in subsection (b) below. By providing your payment method and electing to purchase a Subscription, you authorize us to charge your payment method for the recurring fees and any taxes applicable to your Subscription. Unless you cancel your Subscription before the end of your then-current subscription term, then for each renewal term, your authorized payment method will automatically be charged the subscription fee rate in effect at the time of such renewal, plus any applicable taxes.

   2. Discounts. From time to time, we may provide discounted subscription fees for users who commit to a certain subscription term (ex: six months or twelve months). Discounts are provided at our sole discretion and may not be available to all users.

   3. Trial. Users who have not signed up for our Services for the preceding year are eligible for a free one-month trial of our paid Subscription features (“Trial Period”). During the Trial Period, you may cancel your Subscription at any time by visiting the “Your Account” page and clicking the “Cancel Your Account” button on that page. If you cancel within the Trial Period, your credit card will not be charged; however, you will not be able to sign up for another free trial for one year from the date of cancellation. If you do not cancel during the Trial Period and your credit card is charged for a Subscription, you will be subject to the standard terms for payment, cancellation, and renewal described in this section.
