Premium Membership may be purchased directly from us or through a third party either by paying a subscription fee in advance on a monthly, quarterly, semi-annual, annual or any other recurring interval (“Recurring Subscription Fee”) or by purchasing a code, gift card, pre-paid offer or other offer provided or sold by us or on behalf of us (“Code”) for access to Paid Services for a specific time period (“Pre-Paid Fee”).
If you have purchased Premium Membership or commenced a Trial through a Code, additional terms and conditions presented to you along with the Code may also apply. In that case, you agree to comply with such terms and conditions, in addition to this Member Contract.

We would like you to know that such cancellation will take effect at the end of the then-current subscription period and you will not be refunded for the subscription period which you have cancelled your Paid Subscription within.
