1. Subscriptions

Some features of the Application are billed on a subscription basis (“Subscription”). You will be billed in advance on a recurring and periodic basis (“Billing Cycle”). Billing cycles are set either on a monthly or yearly basis depending on the type of subscription you select when purchasing a Subscription.

Payment will be charged to your Apple ID account at the confirmation of purchase or after the free trial period if offered. Your subscription will automatically renew unless it is canceled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Your account will be charged for renewal within 24 hours prior to the end of the current period. You can manage and cancel your subscriptions by going to your account settings on the App Store after purchase. Any unused portion of a free trial period will be forfeited when you purchase a subscription.

All Subscriptions may be final and non-refundable. By accepting these terms, you agree that we are not required to provide a refund for any reason. We may change, modify, or eliminate features of the Subscription at any time, with or without notice. Any Subscription fee change will not go into effect automatically; you must opt into the fee change to continue using the Subscription after the end of the then-current Billing Cycle.
