2. TERM, FEES AND PAYMENTS
(a) Initial Subscription Payment
By subscribing to one of the Subscription Services, you agree that you will pay the applicable fee for the Subscription Service to which you have elected to subscribe. Your subscription fee will automatically be charged to the credit card you designated as the credit card to be billed for your account.
(b) Automatic Subscription Renewal
One month Basic, Premium and Auction Advisor subscriptions will renew automatically unless you indicate that you prefer yours to expire automatically on the “Subscribe to Invaluable” page during the subscription process. All other Subscription Services will expire unless you indicate that you prefer yours to renew automatically on the “Subscribe to Invaluable” page during the subscription process. If you elect to automatically renew, your Subscription Service will continue with the same duration as the Subscription Service being renewed (e.g. one month, six months, one year, etc…). At the time of renewal, your credit card will be charged our then-current fee for your renewed Subscription Service, provided that if the fee for your renewal Subscription Service increases, we will notify you at your designated email address at least fourteen (14) days prior to renewal so that you have an opportunity to elect not to renew.
(c) Your Billing Date
Your credit card will be charged for the renewal of the Subscription Service to which you have elected to subscribe on your billing date (“Billing Date”). The Billing Date for your renewed Subscription Service shall be on the applicable anniversary of your Activation Date (e.g. six month anniversary, one year anniversary, etc…) If, however, your Activation Date is on the 29th, 30th or 31st day of a month, and your Billing Date does not exist because there are fewer than thirty-one (31) days in the month payment is due, your Billing Date for that particular renewal will be on the last day of the month in which your Billing Date would otherwise be.
(d) Subscription Upgrade
If you would like to upgrade to a higher level Subscription Service (from Invaluable Basic to Invaluable Premium or Professional, or from Invaluable Premium to Professional), you may upgrade the Subscription Service to which you have elected to subscribe at any time by clicking on the My Invaluable button on the primary navigation bar of Invaluable.com and selecting the appropriate link on the Account Information foe User page. If you upgrade the Subscription Service to which you elected to subscribe during the term of such Subscription Service, and you elect to apply the value of your existing lower level subscription, then your credit card will be charged for the difference between the full amount of your new Subscription Service which shall be activated on the date of the change and the pro-rata refund for the remainder of the term of the original Subscription Service. Any time on the lower value subscription that resulted from a promotion or coupon may not be applied to a higher value subscription and is always used last (at the end of the subscription period). For example, if you purchase a 12 month Basic service subscription using a coupon that provides one month for free, then there will be no remaining value to apply towards an upgrade to Premium level subscription after 11 months.
(e) No Refunds
Except as otherwise expressly set forth above, all fees and charges, including charges for automatically renewed Subscription Services, are nonrefundable. However, you may terminate the Subscription Service to which you have elected to subscribe at any time by clicking on the My Invaluable link on the primary navigation bar of the home page of Invaluable.com and selecting the appropriate link under My Invaluable
