PART 2. COMMERCIAL TERMS
2.1 Subscription. Our Services are generally made available on a subscription basis (“Subscription”), which means you receive access to our Services for a set period of time based on your selection at time of enrollment, which is typically a one month or one year term (“Subscription Term”) in exchange for your payment of the fees that apply to the Subscription Term for the Service you enroll in (“Subscription Fees”). If applicable and you elect to enroll in a Subscription, you will be billed in advance for your Subscription when you enroll, and thereafter on a recurring and periodic basis (“Billing Cycle”). The length of your Billing Cycle will depend on the Subscription or Subscription Term you select at the time of enrollment. You agree to pay for the Subscription that you select. Your applicable Subscription Fee will be identified, in U.S. dollars, at the time of enrollment, and renewal, each as applicable. You authorize Us to automatically charge the Subscription Fees applicable to your Subscription (plus any applicable taxes and fees) to the payment method our service provider has on file based on your Billing Cycle.
2.2 Automatic Renewals. At the end of each Billing Cycle, your Subscription will automatically renew for an additional Subscription Term at the price or Subscription Fee shown in your account dashboard or otherwise communicated to you by us at the time of renewal (“Renewal Price”), unless: (a) you or We have canceled your Subscription at least one (1) day prior to the commencement of your next Billing Cycle or in accordance with Section 2.4 below, or (b) a fee change is effectuated, in which case We will give you prior notice in accordance with Section 2.7. We will email you in advance to let you know your Subscription is due for renewal and provide the applicable Renewal Price in your account dashboard. You may cancel your Subscription by contacting us via the customer support email address in your account dashboard, which is [email protected] as of the Date of Publication (“Support Email”), or by logging into your account to cancel directly. Once We or you have canceled your Subscription, your recurring Subscription Fees for the Services will no longer be charged to the payment method We have on file for your account, and your Subscription will remain active only until the end of the then current Subscription Term. Depending on the specific plan or offer you subscribed to, you may also be eligible for a refund or credit in accordance with the applicable terms set forth herein.
2.3 Plan Switching. In the event you switch your Subscription plan or selection, We will send you an email confirming the plan change, reflect any credit or amount owed due to the difference in changing plans, and the Billing Cycle and Renewal Price for the updated plan. Your plan switch will be effective as of the date shown in your account profile and confirmation email, which will generally be tied to the date you elect to switch your plan.
2.4 Free Trials. We may, from time to time, offer limited period free trial subscriptions to certain Services for a specified time (“Free Trial”) at our discretion. If We offer you a Free Trial, the specific terms of your Free Trial will be provided to you at signup and/or in the related promotional materials (such as, but not limited to, emails), describing the Free Trial and your use of the Free Trial is subject to your compliance with such specific terms applicable to the Free Trial. Free Trials are only available to users who have not subscribed to a Service in connection with another Free Trial offer in the last 12 months (or other duration as clearly defined by Us in the terms provided during the registration process or applicable promotional materials for the applicable Free Trial offered to you). At any time, and without notice, We reserve the right to (i) modify the terms and conditions of the Free Trial offer, or (ii) cancel such Free Trial offer.
You may be required to enter your billing information to sign up for the Free Trial. If you do enter your billing information when signing up for the Free Trial, you will not be charged by us until the Free Trial has expired (i.e. end of your specified free trial period). You may cancel your Subscription within at least 24 hours prior to the end of your Free Trial through your UltraVPN dashboard. Unless you cancel during the aforementioned time frame, you will be automatically enrolled in the type of Subscription you selected at the time of your sign up and be charged the applicable Subscription Fees (plus any applicable taxes and fees). Before charging you at the end of your Free Trial period, We will notify you of the applicable fees.
2.5 Payment Methods. Payment of a Subscription Fee is required to use the Services and a valid payment method is required to process the payment for your Subscription. You shall provide us or our third-party payment processor with accurate and complete billing information, which may include full name, address, state, zip code, and valid payment method information. By submitting such payment information, you automatically authorize us to charge all Subscription fees incurred through your account to any such payment instruments.

3.19 Dispute Resolution; Individual Arbitration.
Please read these terms carefully. It affects your legal rights.
- Most customer concerns can be resolved quickly and to the customer’s satisfaction by contacting Us via the Support Email or customer service email address appearing in your account dashboard. If customer service is not able to resolve your concern or complaint to your satisfaction, you agree to give Us a fair opportunity to resolve any complaint, claim or dispute you may have informally and shall provide Us with a written notice of your claim in the manner described in the Notices; Contact Us section, so that We can cooperate with each other to try to address the matter amicably prior to engaging in any formal dispute resolution proceedings.
- In the unlikely event that customer service is unable to resolve a complaint you may have regarding the Services or Us, or We have not been able to resolve a dispute with you after attempting to do so informally, then either party may proceed with formal dispute resolution. If you are a United States based customer or a customer in a jurisdiction where binding arbitration is permitted under applicable law, then you agree any complaint or dispute not informally resolved with Us (including Our service providers, affiliated entities, or Indemnified Parties) shall be resolved through binding arbitration as described in this subsection (B) and the Arbitration Agreement set forth in the following subsection (C). The Arbitration Agreement requires you to resolve all disputes, claims, or controversies (other than those expressly exempted in this Section 3.19) through binding arbitration on an individual basis, instead of in courts of general jurisdiction to the fullest extent permitted by law. Arbitration is more informal than a lawsuit in court. Arbitration uses a neutral arbitrator instead of a judge or jury, allows for more limited discovery than in court, and is subject to very limited review by courts. Arbitrators can award the same damages and relief that a court can award. Any arbitration under these Terms will take place on an individual basis; class arbitrations and class actions are not permitted.
- Arbitration Agreement.
- Mandatory Arbitration of Disputes. You, on the one hand, and Us (including any of Our service providers, affiliated entities, or Indemnified Parties subject to a claim or dispute), on the other, hereby each expressly agree that any dispute, claim or controversy arising out of or relating to these Terms (including the breach, termination, enforcement, interpretation, applicability, or validity thereof or portions thereof, such as this Arbitration Agreement or any policies incorporated into the Terms by reference) or the Services or use thereof (collectively, “Disputes”) will be resolved solely by binding, individual arbitration and not in a class, representative or consolidated action or proceeding. You and Us agree that the U.S. Federal Arbitration Act governs the interpretation and enforcement of these Terms, and that you and Us are each waiving the right to a trial by jury and the right to participate in a class action. This arbitration provision shall survive termination of these Terms.
- Conducting Arbitration and Arbitration Rules. The arbitration will be conducted by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) under its Consumer Arbitration Rules (the “AAA Rules”) then in effect, except as modified by these Terms. The AAA Rules are available at www.adr.org or by calling 1-800-778-7879. Either party may initiate arbitration proceedings. A party who wishes to start arbitration must submit a written Demand for Arbitration to AAA and give notice to the other party as specified in the AAA Rules. The AAA provides a form Demand for Arbitration at www.adr.org.
Any arbitration hearings will take place in the county (or parish) where you live, unless we both agree to a different location. The parties agree that the arbitrator shall have exclusive authority to decide all issues relating to the interpretation, applicability, enforceability and scope of this arbitration agreement. - Exceptions. As limited exceptions to Section 3.19.C.i. above: (a) each party may seek to resolve a Dispute in small claims court if it qualifies; (b) each party shall retain the right to seek injunctive or other equitable relief from a court to prevent (or enjoin) the infringement or misappropriation of our intellectual property rights; and (c) if you are a customer who resides in a jurisdiction where you have a legal right to opt out of arbitration in accordance with laws applicable to you – you may exercise your legal right to opt out.
If you qualify for the exception stated in subsection (c) herein, you must notify Us of your election to opt out of this Arbitration Agreement in writing in accordance with the requirements set forth in the Notices section within thirty (30) calendar days of becoming subject to the Terms (I.e. within thirty (30) days of first access or using the Services). If you do not opt out of the Arbitration Agreement within such period, you shall be bound by the terms of the Arbitration Agreement and have agreed to arbitrate any Claims you may have, on a non-class, individual basis, in accordance with the terms herein. If you opt out of only the arbitration provisions, and not also the class action waiver set herein, then the class action waiver shall still apply to you. Your opt-out notice must include your legal name and address, the email address you used to set up your account for the Services (if you have one), and an unequivocal statement that you want to opt out of this Arbitration Agreement (and, if applicable and you so wish, that you want to opt out of the class action waiver). Opt-out notices submitted via email will not be effective. - Arbitration Costs. Payment of all filing, administration and arbitrator fees will be governed by the AAA Rules. We agree to pay for the applicable fees We are responsible for and will not seek to recover the administration and arbitrator fees we are responsible for paying, unless the arbitrator finds your Dispute frivolous. If we prevail in arbitration, we will be responsible for all of our attorneys’ fees and costs and will not seek to recover them from you. If you prevail in arbitration you will be entitled to an award of attorneys’ fees and expenses to the extent provided under applicable law.
- Injunctive and Declaratory Relief. Except as provided in Section 3.19.C.iii. above, the arbitrator shall determine all issues of liability on the merits of any claim asserted by either party and may award declaratory or injunctive relief only in favor of the individual party seeking relief and only to the extent necessary to provide relief warranted by that party’s individual claim. To the extent that you or we prevail on a claim and seek public injunctive relief (that is, injunctive relief that has the primary purpose and effect of prohibiting unlawful acts that threaten future injury to the public), the entitlement to and extent of such relief must be litigated in a civil court of competent jurisdiction and not in arbitration. The parties agree that litigation of any issues of public injunctive relief shall be stayed pending the outcome of the merits of any individual claims in arbitration.
- Class Action Waiver. YOU AND US AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN YOUR OR ITS INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. Further, if the parties’ Dispute is resolved through arbitration, the arbitrator may not consolidate another person’s claims with your claims, and may not otherwise preside over any form of a representative or class proceeding. If this specific provision is found to be unenforceable, then the entirety of this Dispute Resolution section shall be null and void.
- Severability. With the exception of any of the provisions in Section 3.19.C.vi. of these Terms (“Class Action Waiver”), if an arbitrator or court of competent jurisdiction decides that any part of these Terms is invalid or unenforceable, the other parts of these Terms will still apply.
- In the event of a dispute that is not subject to the Arbitration Agreement in these Terms, or if the Arbitration Agreement is found to be unenforceable, and except any claim properly lodged in a Small Claims Court of the United States (which may be within the county where you reside or in New York, New York), you agree that any action at law or in equity arising out of or relating in any way to these Terms or your use of the Services will be brought in the courts of New York, New York, and you hereby expressly consent and submit to the personal and exclusive jurisdiction of such courts to litigate any such action. You further agree that any such claims will be brought solely on an individual basis and not as part of any class, consolidated, or representative capacity. If you reside in a country (including countries of the European Union) where laws provide consumers the right to bring disputes in their local courts, then, in such cases, mandatory provisions of the local laws of your country of residence shall apply.
The terms of this Section 3.19 shall survive any termination, cancellation, or expiration of this Agreement.
