all liability and obligations concerning the dispute and such site, store or
account. If the disputing persons fail to resolve the dispute within what

suspend or terminate the account until such persons resolve such dispute and
reach certainty regarding ownership of or rights in such website, store and/or
account. The person or persons conclusively and finally determined by court
order, binding arbitration or settlement agreement to be the rightful owner(s)
or interest holder(s) of such website, store and/or account will be obligated
to pay all amounts due and comply with the then current eLearning Consulting policy
regarding transfers of accounts, if required, to transfer ownership of the
site, store and/or account to the rightful owner. Failure of the rightful owner

Export of Services or Technical Data
-
Customer may not remove or export from the
United States or allow the export or re-export of the Services, or any direct
product thereof, including technical data, in violation of any restrictions,
laws, or regulations of the United States or any other applicable
country.
-
Fees, Payment and Cancellation of Services
-
Fees. In consideration of the Services provided, Customer
will pay eLearning Consulting all fees due according to the prices and terms listed on
this website. eLearning Consulting reserves the right to modify its pricing and terms at
any time, and such changes or modifications will be posted on this website and
effective immediately upon the next renewal, billing period, upgrade or
downgrade of the Services with and/or without notice to Customer. All payments
are NON-REFUNDABLE.
-
Taxes. All fees are exclusive of all federal, state, and/or
other governmental sales, goods and services, value-added, harmonized or other taxes, fees
or charges. Customer shall be responsible for all sales, goods and services, value-added, harmonized or other taxes, fees or charges.
-
Billing Policies and Cycles. All billing invoices and
payment notifications will be maintained directly in Customer's Account Portal.
The billing cycle begins on the day Customer converts registers for the course hosting service (the "Billing Date") and is due on that day each month, partial year or year
thereafter, depending on the Service plan selected and billing terms for
individual Services. Billing related to the purchase of Software are
billed once these products/services have been purchased by Customer.
-
Payments. A valid credit card is required for accounts to
process payment for Services. eLearning Consulting will automatically charge Customer's credit card
on file based on Customer's billing cycle (monthly, partial yearly or yearly,
depending on the Services selected and billing terms for individual Services)
until Customer validly terminates the Services. Fees for prepaid Services are
based on Services purchased, regardless of actual usage and payments made for
such Services are NON-REFUNDABLE. eLearning Consulting DOES NOT PROVIDE REFUNDS OR
CREDITS FOR ANY PARTIAL DAYS, MONTHS OR YEARS AND DOES NOT PROVIDE REFUNDS TO
CUSTOMERS WHO DO NOT USE THEIR ACCOUNTS OR LOG IN.
Payments for some of eLearning Consulting
Services are made in arrears and are based on Customer's actual usage within the month.
These eLearning Consulting Service fees due each month will be calculated based on
Customer's usage for the preceding 30 days.
-
Unpaid Accounts. Unpaid amounts are subject to a late
payment charge of 1.5% per month, or the maximum legal rate allowed by law,
whichever is less. If payment is not received within 30 calendar days of the
billing date, eLearning Consulting will automatically revoke access to Customer's
account. eLearning Consulting may or may not contact Customer directly to notify
Customer of its unpaid account. Accounts past due over 90 days will
automatically be deactivated.
-
Disputed Charges/Billing Inquiries. It is Customer's
obligation to review all charges for accuracy. Customer has 30 days from the
date of billing to contact eLearning Consulting and/or dispute the charge. Failure to do
so within the specified time frame will constitute Customer's agreement that
all charges are valid and Customer thereby waives any claims it may have had
regarding such charge.
-
Cancellations. eLearning Consulting Services will continue in effect
until Customer validly terminates the Services. Customer must notify eLearning Consulting of its intent to terminate
prepaid Services at least 5 calendar days before the billing renewal date. If
notice is not received before such date, such Services will automatically renew
for the subsequent renewal period. For example, if a month-to-month customer is
billed on October 9th for monthly prepaid Services from October 9th to November
8th and such customer provides a valid notice to terminate its account on
November 6th, Customer will automatically be charged for prepaid Services from
November 9th to December 8th and the prepaid Services will terminate on
December 8th. If the same customer provides notice to terminate its account on
November 4th, then the account will terminate on November 8th and such customer
will not be charged for any further prepaid Services on such account.
-
Refunds. There are no refunds for the purchase of Software. There are no refunds for Services cancelled by the Customer or termninated by eLearning Consulting.
-

enforcement agencies in any investigation of alleged illegal activity conducted
using this website or the Services. These prohibitions do not require
eLearning Consulting to monitor, police, remove or reject any content, information, graphics, photographs or links on Customer’s hosted sites or any Customer Voluntary Suggestions or other
information submitted by Customer or any other user.
