If you become aware of any unauthorized access to your account, you must change your password and notify us immediately at inspiration@artfulschools.com .
8. Payments
Auto billing; Subscription Fees; Free Trial Terms. The Services is a paid, auto-renewing subscription service (“Subscription”). If you purchase a Subscription by accepting our Free Trial offer, you are agreeing to automatic (recurring) billing, and agree to pay the charges made to your account in connection therewith. Your Subscription, and monthly billing of your account, will continue indefinitely until cancelled by you.
If you sign up for a Subscription with a Free Trial, your Artful membership begins when you have completed the Free Trial sign-up process (i.e., when we collect your personal and payment information). At the end of your Free Trial, you will begin to be billed automatically each month (about every 30 days) until you cancel. Once we begin to bill you, cancellations take effect starting at the end of your current billing period, meaning there are no partial month refunds or credits. If you cancel your Free Trial membership at any time in the first fourteen days (i.e., during the Free Trial period), you will not be charged.
At certain times, we may offer special promotional offers ("Special Offers") that are billed at a discounted rate. These offers may have a different Free Trial period length, or no Free Trial period. In these cases, you will begin to be billed at the time payment information is collected, or, if a Free Trial is being offered, at the end of the special Free Trial period. Note: in these cases, our typical Free Trial will not apply.
These terms will always be disclosed on the payment screen at the time of sign up, prior to our acceptance of payment. In all instances, you will continue to be automatically billed monthly after your Free Trial ends (or immediately if there is no Free Trial).
The pricing of our Services may vary periodically. We cannot guarantee that the price of your Subscription is the lowest available, or historically the lowest or best, price. You will be charged in accordance with the billing terms you agreed to at the time you signed up.
HOW TO CANCEL
If you do not wish for your account to renew automatically you can cancel your subscription by emailing inspiration@artfulschools.com with the subject title “Cancel Subscription”. Include your email address in the body of the email.
Your cancellation will take effect at the start of the next billing cycle. So, for example, if you have a monthly Subscription that began on the first of the month but cancel mid-month, your cancellation will take effect as of the beginning of the following month. There are no refunds on Artful Subscriptions for billing periods that have already lapsed.
Service Add-Ons; Auto Billing; Coaching; Subscription Fees; Free Trial; and Cancellation
We refer to any additional, paid Services we offer beyond a standard Membership as an “Add-On Service.” Each Add-On Service is a separate service and is subject to additional one-time or monthly fees. If the Add-On Service is a subscription service it will automatically renew just like your regular Membership. Before agreeing to an Add-On Service, you will be prompted with (i) the type of Service being offered; and (ii) the one-time or monthly cost for such Add-On Service. Note: if You purchase an Add-On Service, You are agreeing to an additional one-time or monthly automatic (recurring) fee, and agree to pay the charges made to your account in connection therewith, as disclosed at the time You accept the Add-On Service. If the Add-On Service is a monthly Service, you are billed on the same day as Your regular Membership, in one combined payment. You can cancel the Add-On Service at any time by following the instructions above ("How to Cancel"). Note that Your Add-On Service subscription is separate from your regular Membership, although we will combine the charges each month when we bill You. You can cancel one or both at any time, but canceling your regular Membership will automatically cancel your Add-On Service.
If the Add-On Service is a one-time event or purchase you are billed immediately when you purchase the service, using the payment information you have on file with Artful. There are no refunds if the Add-On Service you are billed for is a one-time event or purchase.
Quarterly and Annual Subscriptions.
In certain circumstances, we will offer Subscriptions for a longer term (for example, 3 months, 6 months or even a year). These longer-term Subscriptions are charged in full upon purchase, and automatically renew for the same duration as the initial Subscription term you selected (for example, if you initially purchased a 3-month Subscription, your Subscription will automatically renew for three months; 6-month subscriptions will automatically renew for six months, and so on). The amount due for the next renewal term will be due and immediately payable in full and charged as of the first day of such renewal term. You can always cancel before your next renewal term by logging into your account, and following the cancellation instructions above.
Authorization. When you sign up for our Services and provide a payment method to Artful you are granting your express consent and are expressly authorizing us (and our designated payment processor) to automatically charge you each month for the Services. If you provide a payment method and our charge results in an overdraft, chargeback or other fee from your bank, you alone are responsible for that fee.
EVEN IF YOU DO NOT USE THE SUBSCRIPTION OR ACCESS THE ARTFUL APPLICATION, YOU WILL BE RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY SUBSCRIPTION FEES UNTIL YOU CANCEL YOUR SUBSCRIPTION OR IT IS OTHERWISE TERMINATED. To cancel, follow the instructions above.
Changes. Artful may change, modify, add, remove, suspend, cancel or discontinue any aspect of it Subscriptions including the functionality, content, and/or availability of any features of such Subscriptions at any time in Artful’s sole discretion. Artful may increase its fees for any Subscription effective the first day of a billing renewal by giving you notice of the new fees at least thirty (30) days before you are billed. If you have and do not cancel your Subscription, you will be deemed to have accepted the new fees.

17. General Provisions
ARBITRATION AND GOVERNING LAW:
The exclusive means of resolving any dispute or claim arising out of or relating to this Agreement (including any alleged breach thereof), the Services, or the Site shall be BINDING ARBITRATION administered by the American Arbitration Association. The one exception to the exclusivity of arbitration is that you have the right to bring an individual claim against Artful in a small-claims court of competent jurisdiction. But whether you choose arbitration or small-claims court, you may not under any circumstances commence or maintain against Artful or its affiliates any class action, class arbitration, or other representative action or proceeding.
By using the Site or the Services in any manner, you agree to the above arbitration agreement. In doing so, YOU GIVE UP YOUR RIGHT TO GO TO COURT to assert or defend any claims between you and Artful or its affiliates (except for matters that may be taken to small-claims court). YOU ALSO GIVE UP YOUR RIGHT TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION OR OTHER CLASS PROCEEDING. Your rights will be determined by a NEUTRAL ARBITRATOR, NOT A JUDGE OR JURY. You are entitled to a fair hearing before the arbitrator. The arbitrator can grant any relief that a court can, but you should note that arbitration proceedings are usually simpler and more streamlined than trials and other judicial proceedings. Decisions by the arbitrator are enforceable in court and may be overturned by a court only for very limited reasons.
Any proceeding to enforce this arbitration agreement, including any proceeding to confirm, modify, or vacate an arbitration award, may be commenced in any court of competent jurisdiction. In the event that this arbitration agreement is for any reason held to be unenforceable, any litigation against Artful (except for small-claims court actions) may be commenced only in the federal or state courts located in New York County, New York. You hereby irrevocably consent to the jurisdiction of those courts for such purposes and you irrevocably waive any right to a trial by jury.
This Agreement, and any dispute between you and Artful, shall be governed by the laws of the state of New York without regard to principles of conflicts of law, provided that this arbitration agreement shall be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act.
INTERPRETATION; SEVERABILITY; WAIVER; REMEDIES: Headings are for convenience only and shall not be used to construe the terms of this Agreement. If any term of this Agreement is found invalid or unenforceable by any court of competent jurisdiction, that term will be severed from this Agreement. No failure or delay by Artful in exercising any right hereunder will waive any further exercise of that right. Artful’s rights and remedies hereunder are cumulative and not exclusive.
SUCCESSORS; ASSIGNMENT; NO THIRD PARTY BENEFICIARIES: This Agreement is binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of both parties and their respective successors, heirs, executors, administrators, personal representatives, and permitted assigns. You may not assign this Agreement without CLI Studios' prior written consent. No third party shall have any rights hereunder.
NOTICES: You consent to receive all communications including notices, agreements, disclosures, or other information from Artful electronically. CLI Studios may provide all such communications by email or by posting them on the Services. For support-related inquiries, you may send an email to inspiration@artfulschools.com or the following address:
CLI Studios, Inc.
1801 Brockton Ave.
Los Angeles, CA 90025
Nothing herein shall limit Artful’s right to object to subpoenas, claims, or other demands.
MODIFICATION: This Agreement may not be modified except by a revised Terms of Service posted by Artful on the Site or a written amendment signed by an authorized representative of Artful. A revised Terms of Service will be effective as of the date it is posted on the Site.
ENTIRE AGREEMENT: This Agreement constitutes the entire understanding between Artful and you concerning the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings regarding the same.
