PRIVACY POLICY Provider regards Subscribers' privacy is very important. When Subscriber opens an account with Provider, Subscriber will provide Subscriber's name, address, telephone number, and billing information including the credit card or debit card used to pay for Subscriber's account. Provider will release specific information about Subscriber's account only to comply with valid legal process such as a search warrant, subpoena or court order. BILLING OPTIONS Provider offers its Subscribers the following options to pay their monthly charges through electronic means: Master Card, Visa, or debit cards with the Visa/Master Card logo. In the event that you cancel your account or your account is terminated, you have authorized Provider to debit your credit card or debit card for all charges billed to your account through the end of the then current billing cycle. CHARGES and BILLING Provider will charge Subscriber's designated card every month, but some charges may accumulate on Subscriber's account before they are charged to Subscriber's card. Provider reserves the right to change our fees or billing methods at any time, as long as Provider supplies notice of any such change at least thirty days in advance in the same manner described above for changes to this Subscriber Agreement. Provider also has the right to collect applicable taxes and impose premium surcharges for some areas of the service. If Subscriber does not accept the changes in fees or billing methods, Subscriber may cancel the subscription at any time, but Provider will not refund any remaining portion of the monthly fee when Subscriber cancels the subscription. All Subscriber's ancillary charges including and not limited to features such as Find Me / Follow Me, Conference Calling, Call Blast and any inbound and outbound calling charges, (long distance and local) are due immediately and will be charged according to the Subscriber's selected payment method in increments of twenty-five dollars ($25.00) or greater or on the Subscriber's billing date, whichever occurs first. The Provider reserves the right to change the billing increment amount at Providers sole discretion. Should a credit card transaction fail, a second attempt to debit the card will be made the following day. The Subscriber will be notified by email after any failed attempts. Should the account remain in arrears after the second attempt it will be locked. A locked account allows messages to flow into it, but the subscriber cannot access the account to retrieve messages or make calls. In the event of non-payment the service will be terminated after 30 days & the Subscribers number may be reassigned. If Subscriber's payment becomes past due, Provider will assess an additional 1.5% per month, or 18% annually, (or the highest amount allowed by law, whichever is lower) on the amount due. The late charge amount is also due immediately. Subscriber is responsible and liable for any fees, including attorney and collection fees as provided by statute and authorized by law, that Provider may incur in its efforts to collect any remaining balances from Subscriber. Subscriber also agrees that Subscriber will be billed for and will pay any outstanding balances if Subscriber cancels their membership or are terminated. Subscriber should notify the Provider of any billing problems or discrepancies within 90 days after they first appear on the Subscriber's account statement. If the Subscriber does not bring them to the Provider's attention within 90 days, the Subscriber agrees to waive all rights to dispute such problems or discrepancies. BILLING DATE and RENEWAL PROCESS Charges are debited from Subscriber's credit or debit card on Subscriber's monthly billing date. Subscriber's monthly billing date is the day of the month when Subscriber created Subscriber's account (for example, if Subscriber created Subscriber's account on the 6th of the month, Subscriber's billing date will always be on the 6th of each month). If Subscriber's creation/billing date is the last day of the month, the Subscriber will be charged on the last calendar day of each month. The only exception to this billing cycle is the billing of ancillary charges which are due as incurred in the billing increment determined by Provider or Subscriber's billing date whichever occurs first. If Subscriber's account is annually prepaid, Provider will charge Subscriber's credit or debit card at the start of Subscriber's next year of service. SALES TAXES Billing does not include sales taxes. The Customers shall pay or reimburse Provider for any sales or use taxes associated with the Services, if the Service is required to pay such taxes.
