Employer agrees to pay the applicable fees for the purchased services (including, without limitation, periodic fees for monthly or annual subscriptions) as they become due plus all related taxes, and to reimburse us for all collection costs and interest for any overdue amounts.

Employer may sign up for automatic billing or recurring billing for some Services offered on this site. Any recurring charge will be fixed at the price agreed to at the time of purchase. The specific billing terms for the services Employer orders will be described on the offer page on the Site or available after in the Employer's Account. If Employer signs up for automatic or recurring billing, Employer will be notified of the billing terms and how to stop recurring billing. By signing up for Provider services with recurring billing, Employer will be deemed to agree to those billing terms as described specifically on the Site or in the applicable Order.

Failure to pay may result in the cancellation of the Services and the termination of Employer's agreement with Provider.

Depending on where Employer transacts with us, the type of payment method used and where Employer's payment method was issued, the transaction may be subject to foreign exchange fees or differences in prices, because of exchange rates.

If the payment method Employer uses with us, such as a credit card, reaches its expiration date and Employer does not update its payment method information or cancel its Account or the applicable service, Employer authorizes Provider to continue billing that payment method and Employer remains responsible for any uncollected amounts. Employer's obligation to pay fees continues through the end of the subscription period until Employer cancels its subscription. All applicable taxes are calculated based on the billing information Employer provides us at the time of purchase.

Employer acknowledges and agrees that a breach or threatened breach of any covenant contained in these Terms, would cause irreparable injury, that money damages would be an inadequate remedy and that Provider shall be entitled to temporary and permanent injunctive relief, without the posting of any bond or other security, to restrain Employer from such breach or threatened breach. Nothing in this Paragraph shall be construed as preventing Provider from pursuing any and all remedies available to it, including the recovery of money damages from Employer.

With the exception of disputes pertaining to Provider's intellectual property rights, any dispute of any kind between Employer and Provider arising under these Terms shall be resolved by binding arbitration in New York, New York, pursuant to the JAMS Streamlined Arbitration Rules and Procedures on an individual basis with no class relief. The arbitrator shall be a retired judge or justice of any New York state or federal court with substantial experience in the technology industry and shall follow New York substantive law in adjudicating the dispute, except that this Section 14 shall be construed as a "written Terms to arbitrate" pursuant to the Federal Arbitration Act ("FAA"). Employer and Provider agree that Provider intend that this Section 14 satisfies the "writing" requirement of the FAA."

These Terms are to be governed by, construed and enforced according to the laws of the State of New York. Employer agrees to submit to the personal and exclusive jurisdiction of the federal courts of the Southern District of New York for the purpose of litigating all claims or disputes.
