Payment of Fees

To use certain aspects of the Services, you may be charged fees (the “Fees”). For example, Fees will be charged to a contractor who wishes to obtain access to information about subcontractors. Upon payment of the applicable Fees, a contractor will be issued the set number of requests associated with the package the contractor selects. The contractor may then redeem a request to receive two (2) subcontractors within a certain trade. In the event that a contractor makes multiple requests for subcontractors within a trade, Company does not guarantee that there will not be repeat information provided in response to second or subsequent request.

To pay the Fees, you must provide valid credit card information via a third party payment processer. PLEASE NOTE THAT SUBMITTING THIS INFORMATION WILL RESULT IN A CHARGE DIRECTLY TO THE IDENTIFIED CREDIT CARD. The amount of the Fees will be based upon the pricing schedule in effect at the time the Fees are charged. Company reserves the right to amend this pricing schedule, at any time in its sole discretion with or without notice. You hereby authorize Company’s payment processing service to charge your credit card for all Fees that you incur in connection with your use of the Services.

In the event you have any dispute in the amount charged to your credit card, you will need to raise such a dispute by e-mailing Company at service@subsearcher.com within thirty (30) days of your credit card being charged. In the event you do not raise any dispute within such thirty (30) days, the charges will be deemed final and you hereby explicitly waive any right to dispute such charges. Company shall review such a dispute and determine in its sole discretion as to whether an error needs to be corrected or whether the charges were correct. Company shall respond to you with its decision and its decision shall be deemed final. In the event Company determines a dispute is valid, Company shall issue a refund or provide a credit and such refund or credit will be your sole and exclusive remedy for such dispute.

Except as provided herein for disputed charges, there will be no refunds on any Fees charged under these Terms.
