6. FEES FOR SERVICES
6.1 General. All or portions of the Products and Services may be provided for free or for a recurring subscription fee, or for a stated product price. You will be notified in advance in the the App before signing up for any portion of the Service for which a recurring subscription fee is charged. You will have to manifest your consent to obtain fee-based services by clicking an Accept button. Once you click Accept, you will be subject to the recurring subscription fee that you have accepted for the period of time selected, and you agree to pay in full such amount.
6.2 Taxes. All recurring subscription fees are exclusive of any applicable taxes (value added taxes, sales, use, etc.) unless otherwise stated, and you are solely responsible for the payment of any applicable taxes that may be imposed upon you for use of the Service.
6.3 Free Trial Period. Certain fee-based portions of the Service may be available for a one-time free trial period (a "Trial Period"). The duration of a Trial Period will be identified for you when you register for the Trial Period. In order to register for a Trial Period, you may be required to provide credit card information in accordance with Section 6.4 and create a User account. When you create a user account that is subject to a Trial Period, you will be notified of the length of the trial period and the date by which you must cancel to avoid having your credit card charged. Unless you terminate your Trial Period prior to the end of such Trial Period, your credit card will be charged the recurring subscription fee applicable at the time you signed up for the Trial Period. If at any time you wish to know how much time is remaining in your trial period, this information is available under the "Account" tab from within the application. You may cancel your account at any time during the Trial Period by clicking the "Account" tab from within the application.
6.4 Payment Method. Subscription fees must be paid using a lawfully issued credit card for which you have authorization to make a charge. Kindara may seek pre-authorization of your credit card prior to permitting you to register for a fee-based aspect of the Service to verify the validity of your credit card. Your credit card provider may reduce your available balance by any amount pre-authorized against your credit card. You should speak with your credit card provider to understand their pre-authorization policies. You must maintain a valid credit card on file with Kindara while receiving fee-based Services. If any charge to your credit card is rejected for any reason, then you agree to provide updated credit card information upon request by Kindara and to pay any balances due. Kindara reserves the right to block access to your User account until such time as a valid credit card is provided to cover all charges incurred by you. You are solely responsible for any late fees or other charges incurred by you as a result of your use of a credit card to pay a subscription fee.
6.5 Monthly and Annual Subscriptions.(a) Payment Frequency. Kindara may offer fee-based services on a monthly or annual subscription basis. Both options are auto-renewal, meaning that once you sign up for either the monthly or annual subscription, your credit card will be charged the renewal fee at the end of the period for which you have registered for a subsequent renewal period. The renewal fee charged to your account will be the fee then in effect for the period for which you are renewing. Renewal notices will not be sent to you if you elect a monthly subscription but a renewal notice will be sent to you approximately 30 days prior to the renewal of an annual subscription. If you fail to terminate your account prior to any periodic renewal, then your credit card will be charged the full amount for the renewal period. (b) Changes in Subscription Fees. Kindara may change subscription fees at any time and from time to time. You will be notified of any price changes either via e-mail or through a pop-up window on the Website or the App, or both. Continued use of the Service following a price change constitutes your acceptance of the applicable price change. If you object to any price changes adopted by Kindara, then your sole remedy is to discontinue use of the Service and terminate your account prior to your credit card being charged a recurring subscription fee at the changed rate. The provisions of this paragraph are subject to all applicable local laws.
6.6 Timing of Charges. Renewal fees are charged to your credit card on or about the anniversary of your initial subscription.

20.2 Dispute Resolution. If a dispute arises between you and Kindara, our goal is to provide you with a neutral and cost effective means of resolving the dispute quickly. Accordingly, you and Kindara agree that we will resolve any claim or controversy at law or equity that arises out of these Terms (a "Claim") in accordance with one of the subsections below or as Kindara and you otherwise agree in writing. Before resorting to these alternatives, we strongly encourage you to first contact us directly to seek a resolution. We will consider reasonable requests to resolve the dispute through alternative dispute resolution procedures, such as mediation or arbitration, as alternatives to litigation. (a) Choice of Law; Forum. These Terms shall be governed in all respects by the laws of the State of Colorado and the United States of America. You agree that any claim or dispute you may have against Kindara must be resolved by a court located in Boulder County, Colorado except as otherwise agreed by you and Kindara or as described in the Arbitration Option paragraph below. You agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction of the federal and state courts located within Colorado for the purpose of litigating all such claims or disputes, and hereby waive any claims or defenses that such courts are an inconvenient forum. (b) Arbitration Option. For any claim (excluding claims for injunctive or other equitable relief) where the total amount of the award sought is less than $5,000, the party requesting relief may elect to resolve the dispute in a cost effective manner through binding non-appearance-based arbitration. In the event a party elects arbitration, they shall initiate such arbitration through an established alternative dispute resolution ("ADR") provider mutually agreed upon by the parties. The ADR provider and the parties must comply with the following rules: (i) the arbitration shall be conducted by telephone, online and/or be solely based on written submissions, the specific manner shall be chosen by the party initiating the arbitration; (ii) the arbitration shall not involve any personal appearance by the parties or witnesses unless otherwise mutually agreed by the parties; and (iii) any judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction. Any ADR provider chosen under this Section 20.2(b) must be located in an office based in, or be a permanent resident of, Boulder County, Colorado. (c) Improperly Filed Claims. All claims you bring against Kindara must be resolved in accordance with this Section 20.2 (Dispute Resolution). All claims filed or brought contrary to this Section 20.2 (Dispute Resolution) shall be considered improperly filed. Should you file a claim contrary to this Section 20.2 (Dispute Resolution), Kindara may recover attorneys' fees and costs up to $5,000, provided that Kindara has notified you in writing of the improperly filed claim, and you have failed to promptly withdraw the claim.
20.3 Waiver. A provision of these Terms may be waived only by a written instrument executed by the party entitled to the benefit of such provision. The failure of Kindara to exercise or enforce any right or provision of these Terms will not constitute a waiver of such right or provision.
20.4 Severability. In the event that the application of any provision of these Terms to any particular facts or circumstances shall be held to be invalid or unenforceable under the law hereof, then: (a) such provision shall be reformed without further action by the Parties to the extent strictly necessary to render such provision valid and enforceable when applied to such particular facts or circumstances; and (b) the validity and enforceability of such provision as applied to any other particular facts or circumstances, and the validity and enforceability of all of the other provisions of these Terms, shall in no way be affected or impaired thereby.

20.9 Entire Agreement. This is the entire agreement between you and Kindara relating to the subject matter herein and supersedes all previous communications, representations, understandings, and agreements, either oral or written, between the parties with respect to said subject matter.
