Membership Categories

Users of the Service may become "Free Members" or "Full Members" of the Service. Guests are allowed access to a minimal level of the Service's features and are not charged by us for the use of the features they can access. Free Members are allowed to access more features of the Service than are Guests, but are not allowed access to all of the features that Full Members are allowed to access. Free Members are not charged by us for the features they can access. Full Members are provided with access to additional features of the Service that are not available to Guests or Free Members. Full Members are not charged by us for the features that are free to Free Members. Certain additional features of the Service made available to Full Members are also free of charge. Certain other features of the Service are "paid features", for which a Full Member is charged.

Fees and Payments

• Full Members of the Service are required to purchase “Tokens” in order to use the "paid features" of the Service. Each Full Member is credited with the number of Tokens purchased. Each of the "paid features" of the Service costs one or more Tokens to use. Each time a Full Member uses a "paid feature" of the Service, his account of Tokens is debited by the number of Tokens charged to use that "paid feature".
• In order to purchase Tokens, Full Members may charge them online to a credit card account, pay cash or by credit card in accordance with our pricing policy for Tokens as posted on the Service from time to time. In addition to paying the published price for Tokens, the purchaser is responsible for paying all applicable taxes in connection with the purchase of the Tokens. We reserve the right to change our pricing policy at any time at our sole discretion. We also reserve the right to change the method or manner in which we charge members for Tokens, or the method of payment which is acceptable to us, at our sole discretion.
• Once we have confirmed receipt of your payment, we will credit your account with the number of Tokens purchased. Where we receive payment for an incorrect amount or non-US$ we will credit your account with a pro-rated number of Tokens based on the funds received, converted to US$ at a reasonable market exchange rate at the time of processing. Tokens will be automatically deducted from your account as you use "paid features" of the Service. You can confirm the number of Tokens which remain available to you in your account at any time by checking your account online. A Full Member whose account of Tokens is reduced to zero remains a Full Member, but can not access "paid features" until additional Tokens are purchased. If your usage of the Service is terminated because of a breach of this Agreement or if it is terminated for any reason, any unused Tokens are automatically and immediately forfeited.
• THE PURCHASE OF TOKENS IS NON-REFUNDABLE. Any unused Tokens will remain credited to your account but will not be refunded if unused, even if you are no longer using the Service. Tokens will only be credited to the account of the Full Member purchasing the Tokens, and to no one else. Tokens may not be transferred from one member of the Service to another member. The cost of Tokens purchased by a Full Member is not refundable under any circumstance but can be used by you at any time.
• You agree to pay or have paid all fees and charges incurred in connection with your membership with the Service (including any applicable taxes) at the rates in effect when the charges were incurred. All fees and charges are nonrefundable. We may change the fees and charges in effect for using the Service, or add new fees or charges, by posting new fees and changes on the site from time to time. You also are responsible for any fees or charges incurred to access the Service through an Internet access provider or other third party service, including but not limited to telephone charges. YOU, AND NOT WE, ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR PAYING ANY AMOUNTS BILLED TO YOUR CREDIT CARD BY A THIRD PARTY, WHICH WERE NOT AUTHORIZED BY YOU.
