4. Fees and Payments
1. Although You may register as a Guest Member of the Service for free, You may
be required to pay a subscription fee to use certain Paid Features of the
Service. If You wish to use these Paid Features, You must become a Full Member
and pay the fees that are specified on the web site. These fees are part of this
Agreement. We reserve the right to terminate this Agreement and your use of the
Service at any time at our sole discretion.
2. From time to time We may offer, at low cost or at no cost, a Trial Membership
(“Trial”) lasting a specified period of time. A Trial provides access to the
same Paid Features as a Full Membership. You must provide your credit card or
checking information in order to obtain a Trial. The duration of a Trial is
indicated in the description of said Trial on the web site, using “Day” as a
unit of measurement. The term “Day” in this context denotes a period of exactly
24 hours, and You shall interpret it as such when calculating the duration of a
Trial (eg: a “3-Day Trial” would last exactly 72 hours from the time of
registration for said Trial). If You do not cancel your subscription before the
end of the specified Trial period, You will be automatically upgraded to Full
Member status and billed or rebilled at the rate indicated on the web site. Your
credit card information will be retained on the secure billing server of the
service, for verification purposes in the event of a dispute regarding charges,
and in order to allow You to cancel your membership and then re-subscribe
without having to re-enter your credit card information.
3. Members who have previously subscribed for a Trial or a Full Membership and
have cancelled said Trial or Full Membership may be offered an option entitled
“Reactivate your Membership.” If You choose to Reactivate your Membership, You
will be charged the price of a full membership immediately upon reactivation.
This charge will be applied to the same credit card or checking account with
which You signed up for your previous Trial or Full Membership. If said credit
card or checking account is refused by our billing system, You will be prompted
to enter new billing information. You will be rebilled automatically every 30
days thereafter until You cancel your subscription.
4. If you become a Full Member either by choosing to subscribe for a Full
Membership, by automatic upgrade at the end of a Trial, or by choosing to
Reactivate your Membership, you will be rebilled automatically every 30 days
until You cancel your subscription. You may cancel your subscription at any time
by following the cancellation request procedure indicated on the web site. If
You cancel your subscription before the end of the Trial period, You will not be
rebilled; You will lose your access to Paid Features at the end of the Trial
period and You will be returned to Guest Member status. When You cancel a Full
Membership, you will remain a Full Member with access to Paid Features until the
end of your already-paid billing cycle. At the end of said billing cycle, your
access to Paid Features will be suspended. You may renew your Full Membership at
any time by following the instructions on the web site.
5. Mate1 is not responsible for membership cancellation requests that are not
completed in accordance with the instructions on the web site. Cancellation
requests filed properly through the web site will be processed immediately.
Cancellations requests submitted via phone or email will be handled during
normal business hours in the order they are received. It is your sole
responsibility to file any cancellation request properly and with enough time to
ensure that it may be processed prior to the subsequent rebilling period.
Receipts for subscriptions and confirmations of cancellation will be sent to you
via email. It is your sole responsibility to provide a correct email address
upon registering for the service in order to obtain such receipts and
confirmations.
6. 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, except as described at the bottom of this agreement or where
Mate1 gives notice to the contrary. We may change the fees and charges in effect
for using the Service, or add new fees or charges, by posting new fees and
charges on the site from time to time. You also are responsible for any fees or
charges incurred to access the Services 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.
7. You may cancel your subscription for a refund, without any penalty or
obligation under two specific conditions, as outlined below:
1. Within 3 days after the date that you subscribe for a three day trial or
reactivation (by clicking "Submit Order" or "I Authorize Transaction" or "Submit
Details"); or
2. Within 3 days after each time your credit card is billed for auto-renewal of
your subscription with any subscription plan.
In order to cancel your subscription under this 3-Day Cancellation With Refund
Policy you must mail or deliver a signed original letter stating your FULL NAME,
your SinglesNet.com Nickname, the billing address used for your subscription, your
email address, and your desire to cancel and apply for a refund. This
notification must be postmarked and/or delivered no more than 72 hours after the
initial date of the subscription, reactivation or rebill for which you wish to
claim a refund. This right to refund does NOT include charges from previous
billing periods. Under this policy, you are entitled to only one refund. Any
requests for a refund on a subsequent subscription will be refused. Please note
that members who continue to use the paid features of the site after the 3-day
period following the subscription, reactivation or rebill in question are not
entitled to a refund under this policy.

As a Canadian company located in the Province of Quebec SinglesNet.com Inc is obliged
by Canadian Tax Law to charge a Canadian Sales Tax (hereafter called GST) on
subscription sales to Canadian residents as well as on subscription sales to
non-residents who access SinglesNet.com in Canada. The Province of Quebec requires
SinglesNet.com Inc. to charge a PST tax on subscription sales to Quebec residents.
Therefore, both Canadian residents and non-residents must agree to the following
limitations on their rights as subscribers.
1. If you are a subscriber who is NOT A CANADIAN RESIDENT and have purchased
your subscription to SinglesNet.com from anywhere outside of Canada and have given a
non-Canadian address as your place of residence and have given a non-Canadian

for said subscription, you are prohibited from accessing SinglesNet.com while you are
in Canada and you agree never to do so.

understanding, to GST and, depending on your place of residence within Canada,
HST (Harmonized Sales Tax) or PST taxes on the cost of your subscription to
SinglesNet.com. As a Quebec-based company SinglesNet.com Inc. will charge the GST tax on
its subscription sales to all CANADIAN RESIDENTS and will charge both the GST

3. If you are a CANADIAN RESIDENT FOR TAX PURPOSES RESIDING OUTSIDE OF CANADA,
you must agree to use only your Canadian address on your SinglesNet.com profile. You
are prohibited from using a non-Canadian billing address for the credit card

drawn on a bank account located outside of Canada to pay for said subscription.
It will be the policy of SinglesNet.com Inc. to charge GST taxes on it's subscription
sales to all CANADIAN RESIDENTS FOR TAX PURPOSES regardless of their current
place of residence.

subscriber who is NOT A CANADIAN RESIDENT from accessing SinglesNet.com from any IP
address known to originate in Canada.

thereby becomes your obligation to strictly comply with all the above
requirements and usage restrictions. In the event that you fail to do so, you
acknowledge that SinglesNet.com will be entitled and authorized to do the following:

without any compensation;

explanation of the meaning of said letters. The Online Ambassadors and Former
Online Ambassadors are not responsible for explicitly notifying Members with
whom they correspond of their status as Online Ambassadors. As is the case with
all SinglesNet.com members, SinglesNet.com Inc. is not responsible for verifying the
