SUBSCRIPTIONS AND PAYMENTS

As part of the Service, you may purchase a digital or print subscription to receive issues of Modern Vintage News (“Paid Subscriptions”). Paid subscriptions are available to individuals who are at least the minimum legal age to enter into a contract in their country of residence. Paid Subscriptions are personal and, to the extent permissible under applicable law, cannot be resold or transferred.

With our Paid Subscriptions, we may also offer special promotional plans, memberships, or services, including offerings of third-party products and services. We are not responsible for the products and services provided by such third parties.

Renewal and Cancellation. Your Paid Subscription will automatically renew at the end of the applicable subscription period, unless you cancel your Paid Subscription before the end of the then-current subscription period. To cancel your subscription, please contact us at admin@modernvintagelife.com and we will assist with your request. The cancellation will take effect the day after the last day of the current subscription period. EXCEPT AS OTHERWISE STATED IN THESE TERMS OR AS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW, YOUR SUBSCRIPTION FEE IS NONREFUNDABLE. We do not provide refunds or credits for any partial subscription periods, except as otherwise expressly stated in these Terms. If you cancel your subscription, you are not entitled to receive any refund for the time remaining in your subscription period. We reserve the right to issue refunds or credits at our sole discretion. If we issue a refund or credit, we are under no obligation to issue the same or similar refund in the future.    

Trials.  From time to time, we or others on our behalf may offer trials of Paid Subscriptions for a specified period without payment or at a reduced rate (“Trial”). By using the Service via a Trial, you agree to any additional terms and conditions of the Trial. 

Price and Tax Changes. Modern Vintage News may from time to time make changes to our Paid Subscriptions, including recurring subscription fees, and we will communicate any price changes to you in advance. Price changes will take effect at the start of the next subscription period following the date of the price change and, by continuing to use the Service after the price change takes effect, you will have accepted the new price. If you do not agree to a price change, you can reject the change by unsubscribing from the applicable Paid Subscription prior to the price change going into effect.

Tax rates are based on the rates applicable at the time of your monthly charge. These amounts can change over time with local tax requirements in your country, state, territory, county, or city. Any change in tax rate will be automatically applied based on the account information you provide.

Suspension or Cancellation. Without limiting any other remedies, we reserve the right to suspend or terminate your Paid Subscription or any portion thereof for any reason, with or without notice and without further obligation. If we cancel your Paid Subscription, we may give you a pro-rated refund based on the amount of time remaining that you cannot use. However, we will not be obligated to grant you a refund if we terminate your Paid Subscription because we determine, in our sole discretion, that your actions or your use of the Paid Subscription or the Service violates these, any applicable law, or has harmed the Service or another user. If any or all of our Paid Subscriptions are temporarily unavailable, you will not receive a refund. We reserve the right to issue refunds or credits at our sole discretion.

PROCESSING AND PAYMENT

We will endeavor to process your purchases as promptly as possible. We accept major credit cards, PayPal and other payment methods like certain digital wallet services made available during the purchase process. Accepted payment methods may vary based on your location. We reserve the right to reject any order or purchase at any time. By providing payment information to us, you agree that your payment information is valid and up to date.

If your initial payment authorization is later revoked, your Paid Subscription will be terminated. 

We may receive updated credit card information (new credit card number or updated expiration date) from your credit card issuer. We may use these new details in order to help prevent any interruption to your Paid Subscription. If you would like to use a different payment method or if there is a change in payment method, please update your billing information by contacting us at admin@modernvintagelife.com. The disbursement of the updated credit card information is provided to us at the election of your credit card issuer. We are not responsible for the distribution of your updated credit card information. Your credit card issuer may give you the right to opt out of the updated service. It is your responsibility to contact your credit card issuer regarding your right to opt out of the updated service.

ARBITRATION AGREEMENT

If you intend to seek arbitration you must first send written notice (“Notice”), by first class or certified mail, to Modern Vintage News 2000 Mallory Lane Franklin, TN 37067). If Modern Vintage News intends to seek arbitration, Modern Vintage news will send Notice to the mailing or billing address associated with your Subscription. The Notice must describe the nature and basis of the Claim and the specific relief sought, all of which in sufficient detail to permit the other party to evaluate the Claim. If the parties cannot reach an agreement within sixty (60) days from the receipt of the Notice, either party may initiate arbitration proceedings. Absent the agreement of the parties after a demand for arbitration is made, neither the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) nor JAMS will be permitted to administer any aspect of any arbitration relating to any Claim. The Federal Rules of Civil Procedure (the “FRCP”) and the Federal Rules of Evidence shall apply to and must be followed and enforced by the appointed arbitrator in any arbitration proceedings. If any of the rules or procedures of any arbitrator are different than or inconsistent with those required to be applied or followed under these Terms, then these Terms shall supersede and control, and must be followed as written. Each party will each pay the costs and fees for their respective attorneys’ prosecution or defense of any Claim being arbitrated, subject to any remedies to which either party may later be entitled under applicable law.

IF SUBJECT MATTER JURISDICTION (INCLUDING DIVERSITY JURISDICTION) DOES NOT EXIST IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE MIDDLE DISTRICT OF TENNESSEE FOR ANY SUCH CLAIM, THEN THE EXCLUSIVE FORUM AND VENUE FOR ANY SUCH ACTION SHALL BE THE COURTS OF THE STATE OF TENNESSEE LOCATED IN DAVIDSON COUNTY, AND YOU SUBMIT TO THE PERSONAL JURISDICTION OF SUCH COURTS. YOU AND MODERN VINTAGE NEWS BOTH WAIVE YOUR RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL, UNLESS SUCH WAIVER IS UNENFORCEABLE. YOU ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT EACH PARTY SHALL PAY THE FEES AND COSTS OF ITS OWN ATTORNEYS, EXPERTS, AND WITNESSES INCURRED IN CONNECTION WITH ANY ARBITRATION OR COURT PROCEEDING BETWEEN THE PARTIES NOTWITHSTANDING ANY PREVAILING PARTIES ATTORNEYS’ FEES PROVISION THAT MAY BE PART OF ANY STATUTE UNDER WHICH YOU MAY BRING A CLAIM.

YOU UNDERSTAND AND AGREE THAT THE MAKING OF CLAIMS OR RESOLUTION OF DISPUTES PURSUANT TO THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE IN YOUR INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. YOU UNDERSTAND AND AGREE THAT TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW: (1) THERE SHALL BE NO RIGHT OR AUTHORITY FOR ANY DISPUTE, CLAIM, OR CAUSE OF ACTION ARISING OUT OF OR CONNECTED WITH THE SERVICE, SUBSCRIPTION, AND/OR THESE TERMS (INCLUDING THE PRIVACY POLICY) TO BE ARBITRATED OR LITIGATED ON A CLASS ACTION, JOINT OR CONSOLIDATED BASIS OR ON BASES INVOLVING CLAIMS BROUGHT IN A PURPORTED REPRESENTATIVE CAPACITY ON BEHALF OF THE GENERAL PUBLIC, OTHER MODERN VINTAGE NEWS SUBSCRIBERS, OR OTHER PERSONS; (2) THE ARBITRATOR MAY AWARD RELIEF ONLY IN FAVOR OF THE INDIVIDUAL PARTY SEEKING RELIEF AND ONLY TO THE EXTENT NECESSARY TO PROVIDE RELIEF WARRANTED BY THAT INDIVIDUAL PARTY’S CLAIM; AND (3) THE ARBITRATOR MAY NOT AWARD RELIEF FOR OR AGAINST ANYONE WHO IS NOT A PARTY, NOR MAY THE ARBITRATOR CONSOLIDATE MORE THAN ONE PERSON’S CLAIMS OR OTHERWISE PRESIDE OVER ANY FORM OF A REPRESENTATIVE OR CLASS PROCEEDING. NOTWITHSTANDING THE FOREGOING, IF A COURT DETERMINES THAT PUBLIC INJUNCTIVE RELIEF MAY NOT BE WAIVED AND ALL APPEALS FROM THE DECISION HAVE BEEN EXHAUSTED, THEN THE PARTIES AGREE THAT THIS ARBITRATION AGREEMENT SHALL SURVIVE AND ANY CLAIM FOR PUBLIC INJUNCTIVE RELIEF SHALL BE STAYED PENDING ARBITRATION OF THE REMAINING CLAIMS.

THIS ARBITRATION AGREEMENT SHALL SURVIVE ANY TERMINATION OF THESE TERMS, AND ANY AMENDMENTS TO THIS ARBITRATION AGREEMENT SHALL BE PROSPECTIVE ONLY AND SHALL NOT AFFECT ANY PENDING CLAIM OR ARBITRATION PROCEEDING.

TERMINATION

We reserve the right to modify or terminate the Service, these Terms, and any services offered through the Service at any time without notice, for any reason. The “Disclaimers,” “Limitation of Liability,” “Indemnification,” and “General” sections of these Terms (along with any other provision that by its terms contemplates survival) survive any termination of these Terms.
