    1. New users of the Services that sign up after September 19, 2018 can use the Services on a limited basis during a free trial period that runs for 60 days from the first time they sign up for the Services. During this trial period, you can send up to 4,000 emails per month to up to 300 contacts1. Customer support is not available while you are on the free trial plan. You may not enroll in the free trial plan more than once. If you have ever used any of the Services, you are not eligible for the free trial plan.
    2. We also offer a pay as you go plan (“PAYGo Plan”) and subscription based plans (each, a “Subscription Plan”). The PAYGo Plan enables you to purchase a specified number of credits (“Credits”) to use in connection with the Services. If you choose the PAYGo Plan, you may use your Credits for one year after their date of purchase. After this expiration date, all unused Credits will automatically expire and you will not be entitled to a refund of any amounts paid for them. In addition, if you switch from the PAYgo Plan to a Subscription Plan, your unused Credits will automatically expire and you will not be entitled to a refund of any amounts paid for them or any credit towards the fees applicable to your Subscription Plan.
    3. The Subscription Plans offer you the opportunity to use the Services based on a monthly fee described in the price list. The fee is based upon the number of unique email addresses contained in your VR Account and whether you subscribe to various ancillary features and services. Your use of our standard Subscription Plans allows you to send an unlimited number of Messages to up to 40,000 unique addresses. If you wish to send Messages to more than 40,000 recipients, contact Us at 1-866-683-7842 or email Us at support@verticalresponse.comfor a custom quote. Additional fees may apply if you terminate a Subscription Plan and subsequently choose to reactivate your VR Account under a new Subscription Plan.
    4. You may switch between the PAYGo Plan and a Subscription Plan or between Subscription Plans by contacting customer service by phone at 1-866-683-7842 or by email at support@verticalresponse.com. If you switch between Subscription Plans, We will apply a pro-rated portion (based on the number of days elapsed in the relevant month prior to the date you changed Subscription Plans) of the monthly fee paid in respect of your original Subscription Plan to the fees payable for your new Subscription Plan. If you choose a Subscription Plan and switch to the PAYGo Plan, We will not refund any portion of the monthly fee paid with respect to your Subscription Plan nor will you receive any credit for such fees towards the payment of the PAYGo Plan fees.

1Users who were on our previous free trial plan prior to September 19, 2018 can continue to use their service indefinitely, unless we decide to cease offering this former plan.

(c) VerticalResponse and you each agree that all arbitrations will proceed on an individual basis, and you and VerticalResponse each waive any right to bring claims as part of a class action (either as a named-plaintiff or class member) or as part of any other proceeding where a person acts in a representative capacity of any kind.

(d) The arbitrator, and not any federal, state or local court or agency, shall have exclusive authority to resolve all disputes arising out of or relating to the interpretation, applicability, enforceability or formation of these Terms of Service or any Policy, including, but not limited to, any claim that all or any part of these Terms of Service or any Policy is void or voidable.
