SERVICE CHARGES AND PAYMENT
SC may charge you fees for certain products or services offered for sale through our Site. Certain Site services are available only through the purchase of a Site subscription, some of which, at your option, may be billed either monthly or once annually. A valid PayPal account or credit card is required for paying accounts. This is not required to create or use a free account. These services are billed in advance on a monthly or annually basis and payments are non-refundable. There will be no refunds or credits for partial months of service, upgrade/downgrade refunds, or refunds for months unused with an open account. In order to treat everyone equally, no exceptions will be made. For any upgrade or downgrade in plan level, your PayPal account or credit card that you provided will automatically be charged the new rate on your next billing cycle. SC is not involved in the PayPal transaction. We do not collect credit card information you entered during PayPal transaction. We will never ask for or store your PayPal account password. SC does not deduct any commission or other service charges from these collected payments. Usage of PayPal.com and fees related to the transactions are governed by user agreements as listed on PayPal.com.
All fees under this Agreement exclude all applicable sales, use, and other taxes and government charges, whether federal, state or foreign, and You will be responsible for payment of all such taxes, fees, duties, and charges, and any related penalties and interest, arising from the payment of any and all fees under this Agreement including the access to or license of the Software and performance of the Services hereunder.
In order to provide you with uninterrupted service, most of our online Subscription-Based Services renew automatically at the end of the applicable subscription period at the rate then in effect. As explained below, SC through PayPal will automatically charge your payment card for an auto-renewing subscription unless you cancel your subscription by going to your "My Account" page, logging in with your username and password, and then selecting "cancel subscription" which will redirect you to the PayPal web site, where you can finish your cancellation. Log in to your PayPal account and go to the "History" sub-tab of the "My Account" tab. Choose "Subscriptions" from the pull-down "Show" menu and press the "Submit" button. Choose the subscription, and click on its "Status." You will be taken to a Transaction Details page from which you may cancel your subscription. Canceling your subscription will immediately stop all future scheduled payments for this subscription.
The InterestMartix.com provides you only with links to the PayPal web site and is not responsible for cancellation of your subscription. You are solely responsible for properly canceling your account. An email or phone request to cancel your account is not considered cancellation. You can cancel at any time, but you will remain liable for all charges accrued up to that time, including full monthly charges for the month which you discontinued service. You will not be charged again.
You agree to pay, using a valid payment card which SC accepts, all fees and charges, including applicable taxes, you have through your account, including the monthly or annual subscription charges to access the Subscription-Based Services. SC reserves the right to increase fees and surcharges, including fees for Subscription-Based Services, or to institute new fees at any time, upon reasonable notice posted in advance on this Site or sent to you based on contact information you provide in your "My Account" page. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if you purchase a Subscription-Based Service on an annual basis, your rate remains in effect throughout the subscription year, and is subject to increase only for subsequent subscription years. If you purchase a Subscription-Based Service on a monthly basis, the rate for that Subscription-Based service is subject to change at any time for subsequent months, effective upon prior notice to you.
Unless you take action to cancel your auto-renewing subscription through one of the methods described above, SC will automatically charge your payment card listed in your account to renew your Subscription-Based Services.
