Subscriptions may be available at different fees and for different periods of time (the “Subscription Period”) as specified in the Services at the point of purchase. These Subscription Terms and Conditions apply to all such purchases of Subscriptions. - What legal terms do I need to be aware of for Subscriptions?
Subscriptions are automatically renewing payments that continue until cancelled.
Fees are charged automatically on or before the beginning of each Subscription Period.
A Subscription is automatically renewed at the end of each Subscription Period unless you cancel it at least 24 hours before the expiry of the current Subscription Period. If you do not cancel the Subscription at least 24 hours before the expiry of the current Subscription Period, the Subscription fees for the next Subscription Period will be taken during the 24 hours before the expiry of the current Subscription Period.
If a Subscription fee cannot be taken due to the absence of monetary funds, invalidity of credit card or for any other reasons, the Subscription will be automatically cancelled. - What is a trial period?
Some of our Subscriptions offer a trial period which is free of charge for a certain period of time that is specified in the Services. At the end of such trial period, the Subscription will automatically convert into a paid Subscription for the fees and for the Subscription Period set out in the Services at the time of activation of the trial period. If you do not cancel the Subscription within the trial period therefore, the first Subscription fee will be immediately and automatically charged when the trial period expires. Please note that any paid Subscription begins immediately from the activation of such paid Subscription and not after the expiry of any trial period. Any unused trial period will therefore be forfeited if a Subscription is activated prior to the expiry of such trial period. - Can I cancel my order once I have bought a Subscription?
You cannot cancel your Subscription for the current Subscription Period as that is activated as soon as you purchase a Subscription. However, you may cancel your Subscription for the next Subscription Period following the steps set out below. - How can I cancel a Subscription?

No. Except where required by law or at our sole discretion, paid Subscription fees are non-refundable. - Can Subscription fees change?
We may modify the Subscription fee at our sole discretion and at any time. Any Subscription Fee change will become effective at the end of the current Subscription period. You will be provided reasonable prior notice of any change in Subscription fee. If you disagree with the change in Subscription fee, you may cancel your Subscription for the next Subscription Period following the steps set out above. - Can Subscription content change?
Yes, we may modify the rewards and perks of each Subscription in our Services at our sole discretion. - Why do I still see advertising when I purchase a “remove ads” Subscription?
We use different types of advertising in our Services.

This includes rewarded video advertising which is only shown when you select the option to display it. - I have an issue with my Subscription. Who do I contact?
