Subscription Services
Some features of, or services provided through, the Web site require a fee-based subscription (all fee-based features and/or services are referred to herein as "Subscription Services"). By purchasing Subscription Services, you agree that your subscription is personal to you and that you will not transfer or make available your account name and password to others, including without limitation your friends, co-workers and other contacts.

From time to time, Subscription Services may change without notice.

Payment
Prices for Subscription Services exclude all applicable taxes and telecommunication charges, unless expressly stated otherwise. To the extent permissible by law, you are responsible for any applicable taxes, whether or not they are listed on your receipt or statement. If you purchase Subscription Services, you agree to pay, using a valid credit card (or other form of payment that Multiply may accept from time to time), the applicable fees and taxes (if any) set forth on the Web site. Multiply reserves the right, upon prior notice to you, to change the amount of any fees and to institute new fees, effective at the end of your current subscription period.

Refund Policy
Payment for Subscription Services is non-refundable.

Automatic Renewal Program
By purchasing Subscription Services, you authorize Multiply to automatically renew your Subscription Services on the 1st of the month following the end of your then-current subscription. This is to ensure continuous service.
