• We may make deductions from refunds if you are a consumer exercising your right to change your mind. If you are exercising your right to change your mind:

When your refund will be made. We will make any refunds due to you as soon as possible. If you are a consumer exercising your right to change your mind:

External Service Purchases, including Subscriptions, may be processed through the External Service, in which case those purchases must be managed through your External Service Account. Subscriptions automatically renew until you cancel.
When purchasing a Subscription on the Service, you may have the option to pay through an External Service, such as with your Apple ID or Google Play account (“your External Service Account”), and your External Service Account will be charged for the purchase in accordance with the terms disclosed to you at the time of purchase and the general terms applicable to your External Service Account. Some External Services may charge you sales tax, depending on where you live, which may change from time to time.
If your External Service Purchase includes an automatically renewing Subscription, your External Service Account will continue to be periodically charged for the Subscription until you cancel. After your initial Subscription commitment period, and again after any subsequent Subscription period, the Subscription will automatically continue for the price and time period you agreed to when subscribing.
Cancelling Your Subscription. If you do not want your Subscription to renew automatically, or if you want to change or terminate your Subscription, you must log in to your External Service Account and follow instructions to manage or cancel your Subscription, even if you have otherwise deleted your account with us or if you have deleted the App from your device. For example, if you subscribed using your Apple ID, cancellation is handled by Apple, not Company. To cancel a purchase made with your Apple ID, go to Settings > iTunes & App Stores > [click on your Apple ID] > View Apple ID > Subscriptions, then find your Company Subscription and follow the instructions to cancel. You can also request assistance at https://getsupport.apple.com. Similarly, if you subscribed on Google Play, cancellation is handled by Google. To cancel a purchase made through Google Play, launch the Google Play app on your mobile device and go to Menu > My Apps > Subscriptions, then find your Company Subscription and follow the instructions to cancel. You can also request assistance at https://play.google.com. If you cancel a Subscription, you may continue to use the cancelled Service until the end of your then-current Subscription term. The Subscription will not be renewed when your then-current term expires.
Refunds. Generally, all purchases are final and nonrefundable, and there are no refunds or credits for partially used periods, except if the laws applicable in your jurisdiction provide for refunds.
For subscribers residing in the EU, EEA, UK, and Switzerland:
In accordance with local law, you are entitled to a full refund during the 14 days after the subscription begins. Please note that this 14-day period commences when the subscription starts.
For subscribers residing in Arizona, California, Colorado, Connecticut, Illinois, Iowa, Minnesota, New York, North Carolina, Ohio, Rhode Island, and Wisconsin:
You may cancel your Subscription, without penalty or obligation, at any time prior to midnight of the third business day following the date you subscribed. In the event that you die before the end of your Subscription period, your estate shall be entitled to a refund of that portion of any payment you had made for your Subscription, which is allocable to the period after your death. In the event that you become disabled (such that you are unable to use our Services) before the end of your Subscription period, you shall be entitled to a refund of that portion of any payment you had made for your Subscription, which is allocable to the period after your disability by providing the Company notice in the same manner as you request a refund as described below.
If any of the above apply to you and you subscribed using your Apple ID, your refund requests are handled by Apple, not Company. To request a refund, please contact your External Service directly; for example, using your Apple device, go to Settings > iTunes & App Stores > [click on your Apple ID] > View Apple ID > Purchase History. Find the transaction and select “Report a Problem.” You can also request a refund at https://getsupport.apple.com. For any other purchase, please contact Company at: [email protected].
Products and digital content
Where to find the price for the product. The price of the product will be the price indicated on the order pages when you placed your order, together with any relevant sales taxes (added at checkout). We take all reasonable care to ensure that the price of the product advised to you is correct. However, please see clause 10 for what happens if we discover an error in the price of the product you order.
We will pass on changes in the rate of applicable sales tax. If the rate of applicable sales tax changes between your order date and the date we supply the product, we will adjust the rate of applicable sales tax that you pay, unless you have already paid for the product in full before the change in the rate of applicable sales tax takes effect.
What happens if we got the price wrong. It is always possible that, despite our best efforts, some of the products we sell may be incorrectly priced. We will normally check prices before accepting your order so that, where the product’s correct price at your order date is less than our stated price at your order date, we will charge the lower amount. If the product’s correct price at your order date is higher than the price stated to you, we will contact you for your instructions before we accept your order. If we accept and process your order where a pricing error is obvious and unmistakable and could reasonably have been recognised by you as a mispricing, we may end the contract, refund you any sums you have paid and require the return of any goods provided to you.
When you must pay and how you must pay. Online payments are arranged and managed through our third-party provider in the relevant country. Payment will be made at the point of placing an order.
