3.Fees, Payments, and Offers
3.1. Fees Charged by Betsperts.Use of some of the features on our Platform is free, and we charge fees for other features. We may in the future implement a new fee, or modify an existing fee, for certain current or future features of our Platform. If we implement a new or modified fee, we will give you advanced notice by sending you an email. You agree to pay those fees and any associated taxes for the subsequent term for your continued use of the applicable service. Unless otherwise stated, all fees and all transactions are in U.S. dollars. All fees are exclusive of applicable federal, state, local, or other taxes.
3.2. Payments to Betsperts.If you purchase access to paid features on our Platform, including any Subscription, you are responsible for paying Subscription and any other applicable fees to Betsperts on time and through our approved payment methods. Users who allow their Subscription to lapse are subject to removal. If we terminate, suspend, or remove your account in connection with violation of this Agreement, we are not obligated to refund any fees paid to Betsperts. You may only pay fees to Betsperts using a valid payment method acceptable to us, as specified via the Platform. In the event that you make payment via a credit card, you represent and warrant that (i) you are authorized to use such payment method; and (ii) you authorize us (and our designated third-party payment providers) to charge your designated payment method for the total amount of any fees you owe to Betsperts, including any applicable taxes and other charges. If the credit card payment method cannot be verified, is invalid, or is otherwise not acceptable to us, your payment may be suspended or cancelled. If your payment cannot be completed, we may suspend your access to the Platform until payment is received. We reserve the right to correct, or to instruct our payment providers to correct, any errors or mistakes, even if payment has already been requested or received. We also may issue refunds, or instruct our payment providers to issue refunds, in accordance with our payment policies.
3.3. Automatic Subscription Renewals.Fees for certain aspects of our Platform may be billed on either a recurring basis or on a one-time basis as set forth on the ordering document (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any online registration or sign-up page on the Platform on which you purchased a Subscription or purchase of products or services on our Platform) (the “Order”).
IF THE ORDER PROVIDES THAT YOU WILL BE BILLED FOR THE APPLICABLE PURCHASE ON A RECURRING BASIS (A “SUBSCRIPTION”), YOUR SUBSCRIPTION WILL CONTINUE TO RENEW FOR ADDITIONAL SUBSCRIPTION PERIODS (EACH, A “RENEWAL PERIOD”) AS SET FORTH IN THE ORDER UNTIL YOU CANCEL THE ORDER. FEES FOR SUBSCRIPTIONS ARE PAYABLE UPON ACCEPTANCE OF THE ORDER AND THEREAFTER ON THE START OF EACH RENEWAL PERIOD. IF FEES ARE INCREASED DURING A TERM, THE NEW OR MODIFIED FEE WILL TAKE EFFECT ON YOUR NEXT RENEWAL PERIOD. BY CONTINUING TO USE THE PLATFORM AFTER THE PRICE CHANGE TAKES EFFECT, YOU WILL HAVE ACCEPTED THE NEW PRICE. WE WILL NOTIFY YOU AT LEAST 30 DAYS VIA EMAIL PRIOR TO THE START OF YOUR NEXT REWNEWAL PERIOD AND WILL AUTOMATICALLY BILL YOU AT YOUR PAYMENT METHOD ON FILE IN YOUR ACCOUNT FOR EACH RENEWAL PERIOD AT THE THEN-CURRENT RATE UNTIL YOU CANCEL YOUR SUBSCRIPTION.
YOU CAN CANCEL YOUR SUBSCRIPTION AT ANY TIME IN YOUR ONLINE ACCOUNT; PROVIDED, THAT CANCELLATION WILL BE EFFECTIVE AS OF THE LAST DAY OF THE THEN-CURRENT TERM. TO CANCEL BEFORE YOUR NEXT RENEWAL, YOU MUST NOTIFY US BY CANCELLING YOUR SUBSCRIPTION IN YOUR ONLINE ACCOUNT NO LATER THAN THE LAST DAY OF THE THEN-CURRENT TERM. YOU WILL NOT BE ISSUED A REFUND FOR ANY PERIODS PRIOR TO THE EFFECTIVE DATE OF CANCELLATION EXCEPT IN OUR SOLE DISCRETION. BY PURCHASING ANY FEATURE OR OTHER ASPECT OF OUR PLATFORM FOR WHICH WE CHARGE, YOU AUTHORIZE US TO KEEP YOUR PAYMENT CURRENT BY CHARGING YOUR CREDIT CARD ACCOUNT (OR ANY OTHER MEANS OF PAYMENT USED BY YOU) THE APPLICABLE FEE.
If you have any questions about automatic renewal or cancellation, please email us at
contact@betspertsgroup.com. These Terms of Service do not override any mandatory local laws regarding your cancellation rights.
3.4 Free Trials. We may offer free trials of Subscriptions and other products on our Platform. Free trials of a Subscription will automatically renew for a paid Subscription at the then-current rate unless you cancel as set forth in this Section. We will inform you at least 15 days prior to the end of your free trial via email of the start date of your paid Subscription period and the date and amount of your first payment. If you do not wish to continue with a paid Subscription after the end of your free trial, you must notify us by cancelling your Subscription in your online account on the Platform no later than the last day of the free trial period. Otherwise, after your free trial ends, your paid Subscription will begin, and we will automatically bill you at the then-current rate for each Renewal Period until cancellation. You can cancel automatic renewals of Subscriptions at any time according to the terms and procedures described above. You should save a copy of anything important before cancelling your account. If you cancel your account, any or all of your information may be immediately (or at some point in the future) irrevocably deleted. Conversely, information you post or otherwise furnish to us, including personal information, may remain on our servers indefinitely (for example, as backups) after you delete it from public areas of the Platform or request cancellation of your account. Any information retained by us will be done in accordance with our Privacy Policy and Section 4.4 below.

9.2. Arbitration Agreement.Except as set forth in Section 9.5, the Parties agree to submit any claim to JAMS, Inc., or its successor, (“JAMS”) for final and binding arbitration. In arbitration certain rights that you or we would have in court may not be available, such as discovery or appeal. You and Betsperts are each expressly waiving any right to trial by judge or jury in a court of law. This agreement to arbitrate shall apply regardless of whether the claim arises during or after any termination of this Agreement or your relationship with Betsperts.

The Parties will cooperate with JAMS and each other in scheduling the arbitration proceedings, and in selecting one arbitrator from the appropriate JAMS list with substantial experience in resolving intellectual property and contract disputes. The arbitrator shall follow this Agreement and, to the extent permitted by JAMS Rules, can award costs, fees and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees to the prevailing party, except that the arbitrator shall not award declaratory or injunctive relief benefiting anyone but the parties to the arbitration. Judgment upon the award rendered by such arbitrator may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction.
9.5. Exceptions.You or Betsperts may assert claims, if they qualify, in small claims court in Fulton County, Georgia. You or Betsperts may seek injunctive relief from a court of competent jurisdiction in Fulton County, Georgia as necessary to protect the intellectual property rights of you or Betsperts pending the completion of arbitration. Betsperts may take action in court or arbitration to collect any fees or recover damages for, or to seek injunctive relief relating to, Platform operations, or unauthorized use of our Platform or intellectual property. Nothing in this Section 9 shall diminish Betsperts’s right to modify, suspend or terminate your account or access to our Platform under Section 2.2.

11.3. No Agency.No agency, partnership, joint venture, employee-employer or franchisor-franchisee relationship between you and Betsperts is intended or created by this Agreement.

11.6. Time for Filing.Any claim not subject to arbitration must be commenced within one year after the date the party asserting the claim first knows or should know of the act, omission or default giving rise to the claim, or the shortest time period permitted by applicable law.
11.7.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, either Party may assign this Agreement in its entirety, without consent of the other Party, to an affiliate or in connection with a merger, acquisition, corporate reorganization, or sale of all or substantially all of its assets not involving a direct competitor of the other Party. Subject to the terms specified herein, this Agreement shall bind and inure to the benefit of the Parties, their respective successors and permitted assigns.
