For any Advisory Plan you purchase that is charged in full upon purchase, you agree that for each renewal term for such Advisory Plan, the amount due for the next term will be due and immediately payable in full as of the first day of that renewed term. For each Advisory Plan, your charge remains for each term no matter if you access the Site during that term. In other words, EVEN IF YOU DO NOT USE THE ADVISORY PLAN BENEFITS OR SPEAK WITH A PROFESSIONAL, YOU WILL BE RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY PLAN MEMBERSHIP FEES UNTIL YOU CANCEL YOUR MEMBERSHIP OR IT IS OTHERWISE TERMINATED.

If you do not give us notice of such intention, your credit card will be charged for the renewal term of your Advisory Plan subscription on your Billing Date. Your Billing Date for renewals will fall on the same day as the day of the first month when you started the Advisory Plan. kimbocorp may adjust your Billing Date in subsequent renewal periods without notice. This will be reflected by a charge to your account on a pro-rated basis according to the number of days that have passed since the Billing Date of your latest renewal charge. Unless otherwise notified in advance by kimbocorp pursuant to this Agreement, the renewal charge will be equal to the original purchase price for the Advisory Plan.

    c. Notice of Automatic Renewal.

     

    If applicable, we will send a reminder email to the email address of record for your account approximately one week before your Billing Date. You acknowledge and agree that this notice is provided as a courtesy only, and we are not obligated or required to provide such notice. You acknowledge and agree that (i) your failure to read, (ii) inability to receive, or (iii) the failure of kimbocorp to send the email does not create any liability on the part of kimbocorp or any third-party service provider.

Fee Adjustments. kimbocorp may increase its fees for any Advisory Plan membership effective the first day of a renewal term by giving you notice of the new fees at least thirty (30) days before the beginning of the renewal term.
