Should User become a registered user or otherwise utilize the Site for marketing or other such purposes either directly or via a third-party data feed or service who provides content to the Site, such User hereby acknowledges and grants LotNetwork permission to communicate with User via email (as well as other communication channels such as phone) for any purposes LotNetwork determines to be relevant including, but not limited to, system messages, product updates, customer support, service announcements and marketing messages.

5. REGISTRATION & CONTACT INFORMATION
As a condition to using part or all of the Service or the Site, User may be required to register with Company and select a password and user ID. User shall provide Company with accurate, complete, and updated registration and contact information (including, a valid phone number and email address), and is required to do so in order to submit and maintain active property listings, advertisements, profiles, directory listings, Forum information or other Communications on the Site. Failure to do so shall constitute a breach of this Agreement, which may result in immediate termination of User’s account. You may not (i) select or use as an email address or user ID a name of another person with the intent to impersonate that person; (ii) without appropriate authorization, use as an email address or user ID a name subject to any rights of a person other than User; or (iii) register for the Service, submit property listings or profiles, maintain active property listings or profiles, or otherwise access the Site and exercise Communications using more than one User ID. Company reserves the right to terminate or refuse registration of User’s account at its discretion.
6. PAYMENT TERMS & FEES
6.1 Fees for Services
The Company requires the payment of fees (“Fees”) for certain Services, features and products, including but not limited to listings, plans, profiles, directories, advertisements, marketing services and subscriptions selected for purchase by User. User agrees to pay all the applicable Fees and related charges, including any taxes (if applicable), for all such services or products purchased from the Company including through the Site, any mobile application or service, any other transaction processing system used by the Company or the LotNetwork sales and service team, using the payment method indicated, and provides Company express authorization to charge said fees and charges to the User's payment provider, debit card or credit card at time of purchase, renewal, end of a promotion period or other billing event.
The fees paid for plans, subscriptions, products and other Services are paid in advance and are not refundable, and User shall not receive a refund or credit for early cancellation; cancellation prior to the end of the then-ongoing billing cycle; partial months or periods; failure to add advertisements, listings or profiles; or failure to otherwise use the Service after making a purchase. A User will not receive a refund or credit for billing that occurs when a promotion ends according to its terms.
The Fees that are owed may vary and depend on the type and quantity of Services, subscriptions or products ordered or purchased by User or that are in effect or active at the time the billing transaction is processed.
6.2 Initial and Recurring Billing
In order to provide you with uninterrupted service some of our subscriptions, plans, Services and products are structured on a recurring billing basis and renew automatically each month (or at some other recurring time period, as identified at the time of the initial transaction), at which point payment will be required and shall be processed using the current credit, debit card or other account number provided by the User. Each account for which Fees are due for subscriptions or listing plans will be processed on a recurring basis on the date shown as the next Billing Date in the My Account area of the Site (or on the renewal schedule selected by User if a multi-month prepaid plan is purchased), and User authorizes and agrees to recurring billing procedures for its account.
Users also may be billed at the time purchases are made, including during an ongoing billing cycle or when a promotion or term ends during a billing cycle, and such purchases initially may be billed as partial or prorated payments for the remainder of the billing cycle up to the next Billing Date. Other Services may be charged on a one-time or non-recurring basis, as well as recurring, depending on the terms.
The Site’s listing template and related Services are made available to User immediately after User selects and purchases a subscription or listing plan. Accordingly, the initial payment for Fees for a listing plan or subscription is due at the time the plan is selected for User’s account and purchased by User on the Site and continues thereafter on a recurring basis starting on the next billing or payment date until cancelled or terminated. The initial payment and recurring billing for a subscription or listing plan is not based on when the user posts a listing or elects to fully use a Service.
6.3 Form of Payment
Credit or debit cards are the primary form of payment accepted by the Company, and other forms of payment may be accepted solely at LotNetwork’s discretion.
User is obligated to keep valid and current payment information updated in their LotNetwork account so that Fees may be successfully processed for the selected Services in User’s account at the time a payment is due. User shall update or replace their payment information before the next billing date or payment date when User’s credit card, debit card or any other form of payment is no longer valid and functioning, whether such form of payment has expired or been replaced, updated or cancelled by User or the bank or card issuer.
6.4 Cancelling or Changing Account or Selected Services
If a User no longer wishes to continue a product, subscription or Service, the User may cancel at any time. While you may cancel any Services at any time, you won't be issued a refund except in our sole discretion. Cancellations and account changes should be made by User at least three (3) days prior to the next renewal or billing date. User may cancel or change listing plans and subscriptions in the My Account and My LotNetwork area of the Site.
If User cancels its product, subscription or Service during a billing cycle, the related service and benefits immediately will end at that time. Partial months or unused time periods will not be refunded or credited. A User may choose to wait until closer to the end of a billing cycle before cancelling such product, subscription or Service if it wishes to make use of the Service for a longer period of time.
NOTE: Downgrading, deleting or inactivating a property listing does not remove or cancel the underlying listing plans or subscriptions from an account. In order to cancel all plans, subscriptions and billing you must cancel all listing plans and subscriptions in your account (which also will cancel the related property listings). If User wishes to cancel a listing plan or subscription User is responsible for doing so in a proper and timely manner and continues to be responsible for Fees that accrue related to those Services until actually cancelled by User. The Current Billing section of the My Account page in the My LotNetwork area of the Site will show all active subscriptions and plans in your account.
We want to make the process as easy for you as possible, so if User has questions about a cancellation, change in Services or the related process, User should contact LotNetwork’s Customer Service Team at (888) 662-3757 or customerservice@lotnetwork.com.
6.5 Maintaining Your Account
If a User purchases or signs up for a service with the Company the User understands that it is fully responsible and liable for paying for such Service as long as the subscription, plan, Service or product remains active in User’s account. User is responsible for selecting its products and Services on the Site, for monitoring its account and for all payments that are due for products and Services in its account, including when User fails to actively monitor or maintain its account or when User’s payment does not process properly or in a timely manner.
If payment is past due on an account or the User’s form of payment otherwise fails to process, LotNetwork at its discretion reserves the right to immediately suspend the User’s account and to cease to provide the unpaid products or Services to the User and User continues to be responsible for the Fees related thereto through the end of that billing cycle. Company may take actions that are necessary to collect any past due amounts from User, including attempting to process the transactions for the past due payment over time until the payment is received. LotNetwork may choose to terminate an account and remove or purge a User’s listings and other information from its records and database if User fails to make payments when due, has extended inactivity or fails to comply with this Agreement or other policies.
Services and subscription privileges associated with a User or an account are granted by the Company exclusively to one individual registered for or associated with that account and are subject to change from time to time at the Company’s discretion. User may not share, assign, sublicense or otherwise transfer such rights and privileges to anyone without the express written permission of the Company.
It is the User's responsibility to periodically review its account on the Site and to promptly provide the Company with accurate registration, contact and billing information related to its account and to make changes or updates when needed by making updates on the My Account page, other relevant page or by communicating directly with the Company. User understands that it has the responsibility to keep billing information that it has provided Company up-to-date and accurate so that payments may be processed, and User continues to remain responsible for any payments that Company is unable to process. Failure to comply with this provision (including without limitation falsification of any registration or billing data) may, at the Company’s option, result in immediate suspension or termination of your account and your right to use the Site or any products, subscriptions or Services. It also is User’s responsibility to keep an active and updated email address associated with its account and to regularly review its emails so that it can receive email communications from the Company about billing, alerts or other matters. In addition, it is User’s responsibility to take appropriate measures to ensure that it is able to receive and review these communications from the Company and to reasonably prevent these communications from being filtered, rejected or otherwise blocked by the User, its email programs or its internet service providers.
6.6 Fee or Service Changes
LotNetwork reserves the right to change its Fees, pricing, payment frequency or billing methods, and to establish new charges, at any time. The Company will provide timely notice to the affected Users of any such changes via the email address associated with the User’s account. New Fees will not apply retroactively. If you don't agree with the Fee or Service changes, you have the right to reject the change by canceling the related Service before your next payment date.
A User’s billing amount may change for several reasons, including because of products or Services added or removed by the User, when system-wide Fee changes are deployed, as a result of the end of a promotion or when a discount received via a corporate package or other product offering is subject to removal. Discounts related to packages or grouped product offerings may be removed when such a program has been discontinued or when all or part of the terms or requirements for the discount related to the product(s) or package(s) are no longer met by a User or have been cancelled.
6.7 Billing Questions
LotNetwork is happy to discuss questions or disputes that a User may have about a bill, charge or transaction. User should contact LotNetwork’s Customer Service Team at (888) 662-3757 or customerservice@lotnetwork.com.
You agree that you shall first contact the Company to discuss and try to resolve any such billing or related questions. You shall notify LotNetwork about any billing problems or discrepancies within 90 days after charges first appear on your account statement. If such questions are not brought to LotNetwork’s attention within 90 days, User agrees to waive their right to dispute such problems or discrepancies.
If you contact your bank or credit card company to decline, chargeback or otherwise reverse the charge of any payable Fees to us (“Chargeback”), we may automatically suspend or terminate your account. If you have questions about a payment made to us, we encourage you to first contact Customer Service at customerservice@lotnetwork.com before filing a Chargeback. We reserve our right to dispute any Chargeback, and User will continue to be responsible for the Fees that are due and payable for the Service despite the Chargeback action when the Fees are improperly or fraudulently disputed by User with the Chargeback. User also may be responsible for any related fees, collection costs, legal fees or other such costs and expenses incurred by Company related to a Chargeback.
6.8 Payment Processor
Company uses a third-party payment processor (the “Payment Processor”) to bill you through a payment account linked to your LotNetwork account. The processing of payments will be subject to the terms, conditions and privacy policies of the Payment Processor, in addition to this Agreement. Our current Payment Processor is PayPal, and User’s payments are processed by PayPal in accordance with PayPal’s terms of service and privacy policy. User agrees to pay Company, through the Payment Processor, all Fees and charges at the prices then in effect for any purchase in accordance with the applicable payment terms. You agree to make payment using the payment method you provide with your account. Company reserves the right to correct, or to instruct our Payment Processor to correct, any errors or mistakes, even if a payment already has been requested or received.
7. PROMOTIONS
Company may from time-to-time, at its discretion, establish promotions, discounts, contests, offers, incentives, programs or other such benefits related to the Site and the Services (individually and collectively, the "Promotion"). Company may cancel any such Promotion at its discretion without notice. Such Promotions shall be governed by this Agreement, as well as any other policies, rules, limitations, terms or conditions provided by the Company related such Promotion. Promotions may be limited to certain users or groups of users, for certain or varied time periods and include different levels of benefits. A Promotion may be structured so that at the end of the Promotion (or the end of User’s participation time in all or part of an on-going Promotion), the billing or account information provided by User (such as credit card numbers, debit card numbers or other account information) will be charged an amount based on the Service or product that is in the User’s account at that time. It is the User’s responsibility to adjust its products, listings, subscriptions and Services, or cancel or adjust its account, prior to the end of the time period that the Promotion applied if User does not wish to be charged the full amount or experience other such changes after the Promotion period. User is responsible for the full amount of charges as may apply when a Promotion period ends for User, even if User has failed to monitor or adjust its account prior to the end of the Promotion period. Expired, inaccurate or insufficient billing card information that prevents the Company from processing a payment at the end of a Promotion for a User may cause User’s account to be inactivated or suspended at the Company’s discretion.
