This Section 14 applies to paid memberships offered through the Site, including The Sunday Paper PLUS and the Sunday Paper Ambassador tier (each, a “Membership”). To the extent this Section conflicts with any other provision of these Terms with respect to a Membership, this Section controls.

(a) Billing. When you purchase a Membership, you authorize Company and its third-party payment processor to charge the payment method you provide for the then-current Membership fee, plus any applicable taxes, on a recurring basis for the billing period you select (monthly or annual). All fees are quoted and charged in U.S. dollars. You are responsible for keeping your payment method and billing information current. If a charge is declined, we may retry the charge and may suspend or terminate your Membership if payment is not received.

(b) Automatic Renewal. YOUR MEMBERSHIP RENEWS AUTOMATICALLY. Unless you cancel before the end of your then-current billing period, your Membership will renew for a successive period of the same length and your payment method will be charged the then-current fee for that period. For annual Memberships, we will send a renewal reminder to the email address associated with your account at least 30 days before each renewal date. That reminder will state the renewal date, the amount that will be charged, and will include a clear and conspicuous link that allows you to cancel. For monthly Memberships, we will provide any renewal notice required by applicable law. Your consent to automatic renewal continues until you cancel as described in Section 14(c).

(c) Cancellation. You may cancel your Membership at any time, effective at the end of your then-current billing period, by emailing us at membership@shrivermedia.com, or by using any cancellation link we make available to you in your account or membership settings or in a renewal reminder or billing email. Cancellation stops future charges; unless a refund is issued under Section 14(d), you will keep access to the Membership through the end of the period you have already paid for.

IMPORTANT: Unsubscribing from The Sunday Paper newsletter or from any other email communication does not cancel your Membership and does not stop recurring billing. Adjusting your email preferences and cancelling a paid Membership are separate actions. To stop being billed, you must cancel using one of the methods described above.

(d) Refunds. Except as required by applicable law:

• Monthly Memberships. We do not issue refunds for monthly charges, unless the charge resulted from an error by us or our systems.

• Annual Memberships. If your Membership renewed within the preceding 30 days and wish to cancel your Membership you may submit a request and we will refund your Membership fee. Outside that window, we may issue a refund at our discretion where the charge resulted from an error by us or our systems, or where you hold duplicate accounts and are continuing to pay for one of them.

• Effect of a refund. Where a refund is issued, your Membership is cancelled effective immediately and your access ends on the date of the refund. Where a Membership is cancelled without a refund, your access continues until the end of the period you have paid for.

To request a refund, contact us at membership@shrivermedia.com. Refunds are issued to the original payment method.

(e) Billing Questions and Chargebacks. If you believe you have been charged in error, please contact us at membership@shrivermedia.com before contacting your bank or card issuer, and we will review your request and respond as quickly as we reasonably can. Many billing questions — including charges you did not expect because you believed your Membership had ended — can be resolved directly and more quickly than through a card dispute. If you file a chargeback for a charge that is validly owed, we may suspend or terminate your Membership and may decline to offer you a Membership in the future. Nothing in this Section limits any right you may have under applicable law or your card issuer’s rules to dispute a charge.

(f) Changes to Fees. We may change Membership fees from time to time. Any fee change will take effect at the start of your next billing period following notice to you, and for annual Memberships we will give you at least 30 days’ notice before the new fee is charged. If you do not agree to a fee change, you may cancel under Section 14(c) before the change takes effect.

Any dispute relating in any way to these Terms, your visit to the Site, or to any transaction with Company shall be submitted to confidential arbitration in Los Angeles, California. However, if you have in any manner violated or threatened to violate any Company Intellectual Property right, we may seek injunctive or other appropriate relief in any state or federal court in the state of California. You consent to exclusive jurisdiction and venue in these courts. Any arbitration under this agreement and these Terms shall be conducted under the prevailing rules of the American Arbitration Association. The arbitrator’s award shall be binding and may be entered as a judgment in any court of competent jurisdiction. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, you agree that any dispute resolution proceedings will be conducted only on an individual basis and not in a class, consolidated or representative action. Any claim or cause of action you may have with respect to Company or the Site must be commenced within one year after the claim or cause of action arose.

These Terms constitute the entire agreement between you and Company and govern your use of the Site, and they supersede any prior agreements between you and Company. You also may be subject to additional terms and conditions that are applicable to certain parts of the Site. Company may terminate this Agreement and deny you access to the Site at any time, immediately and without notice, if in Company’s sole discretion you fail to comply with any provision of these Terms. You agree that no joint venture, partnership, employment, or agency relationship exists between Company and you as a result of these Terms or your use of the Site. The failure of Company to exercise or enforce any right or provision of these Terms shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision. The invalidity of any term, condition or provision in these Terms shall not affect the enforceability of those portions of the Terms deemed enforceable by applicable courts of law. These Terms shall be governed by, construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of California, without giving effect to any conflict of law provisions. You may not assign the Terms or any of your rights or obligations under the Terms without Company’s express written consent. The Terms inure to the benefit of Company’s successors, assigns and licensees. The section titles in these Terms are for convenience only and have no legal or contractual effect.

Please contact us with any questions or concerns in connection with these Terms or the Site or to provide any notice under these Terms.
