5. FEES, TRANSACTIONS AND PAYMENTS
A. As more fully described on the Website, access to certain Website features or Services may require your payment of fees (“Fees”).
B. If you wish to purchase a subscription to our Services through the Website (each a “Transaction”), you may be asked to supply certain information relevant to such Transaction, including without limitation your credit card number, your credit card verification or other security code, the expiration date of your credit card, and your address. We will treat any such information provided through the Website in accordance with this Agreement and the Privacy Policy. Verification of information may be required prior to the acknowledgment or completion of any Transaction. You represent and warrant that you have the legal right to use any credit card(s) or other Payment Method (as defined below) that you have used in connection with any Transaction.
C. You may be required to register your personal and/or financial information with us in order to use certain areas of the Website or the Services, for example, to access/provide Content or to initiate Transactions. In doing so, you agree that you will provide accurate and complete information. We may refuse to process your information or requested Transactions if we believe that you may be: i) impersonating another person; ii) violating the intellectual property or other rights of any entity; iii) posting Content that is offensive; or iv) providing any information that we may otherwise reject for any or no reason in our sole discretion.
D. We may use a third-party payment processor (the “Payment Processor”) to charge Fees to you through your registered account for use of the Services.

E. We will automatically charge your Payment Method when payments are due, as more fully identified on the Website. If you purchase a subscription for Services, it may result in recurring charges to your Payment Method, and you agree that we may charge such amounts until such time as your subscription expires, is terminated or you cancel the subscription, depending on the subscription type.
F. WE MAY SUBMIT PERIODIC CHARGES TO YOU WITHOUT FURTHER AUTHORIZATION FROM YOU, UNTIL YOU PROVIDE NOTICE (RECEIPT OF WHICH IS CONFIRMED BY US) THAT YOU HAVE TERMINATED THIS AUTHORIZATION OR WISH TO CHANGE YOUR PAYMENT METHOD. SUCH NOTICE WILL NOT AFFECT CHARGES SUBMITTED BEFORE WE COULD REASONABLY ACT.
G. Your account will be considered delinquent if payment in full is not successful when a charge is initiated. Unless specified in an invoice, amounts due are exclusive of all applicable taxes, levies, or duties, and you will be responsible for payment of all such amounts. If you believe that any specific charge under this Agreement is incorrect, in order to obtain a credit, you must contact us in writing within thirty (30) days after the payment due date, and set forth the nature and amount of the requested correction. Otherwise, charges are final.
H. In addition to other applicable remedies, we reserve the right to suspend and/or terminate your access to the Services and/or terminate this Agreement if your Payment Method is declined or fails and your account therefore is delinquent. Charges to delinquent accounts are subject to interest of 1.5% per month on any outstanding balance, or the maximum permitted by law, whichever is less, plus all expenses of collection, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and court costs.
I. If you wish to cancel your subscription, you may do so at any time through your account. Any charges incurred prior to cancellation are non-refundable. If you upgrade your subscription, you will be charged the difference in your current subscription and the upgraded subscription at that time, and you will be charged the price for the upgraded subscription on an ongoing basis until cancellation. If you downgrade your subscription, you will be charged the reduced price at the beginning of the next subscription term.

14. DISPUTES, GOVERNING LAW AND JURISDICTION
A. You agree that any claim or dispute arising out of or relating in any way to your use of the Website, Services or any service provided by us, will be resolved solely and exclusively by binding arbitration, rather than in court, except that you may assert claims in small claims court if your claims qualify. The Federal Arbitration Act and federal arbitration law apply to this Agreement.
B. There is no judge or jury in arbitration, and court review of an arbitration award is limited. An arbitrator, however, may award on an individual basis the same damages and relief as a court (including injunctive and declaratory relief or statutory damages), and must follow the terms of this Agreement as a court would.
C. To begin an arbitration proceeding, you must send a letter requesting arbitration and describing your claim to our address specified in the Notice section, below.
D. Arbitration under this Agreement will be conducted by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) under its rules then in effect. Payment of all filing, administration and arbitrator fees will be governed by the AAA's rules.

G. Any dispute or alleged claim you may have with respect to your access or use of the Website or Services must be commenced within one (1) year after the occurrence of the events leading to the dispute or alleged claim.

YOU HEREBY WAIVE ANY OBJECTION TO THIS VENUE AS INCONVENIENT OR INAPPROPRIATE, AND AGREE TO EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION AND VENUE IN THE DISPUTE RESOLUTION LOCATION.
15. GENERAL
A. Severability. If any provision of this Agreement is found for any reason to be unlawful, void or unenforceable, then that provision will be given its maximum enforceable effect, or shall be deemed severable from this Agreement and will not affect the validity and enforceability of any remaining provision.
B. Revisions. This Agreement may only be revised in a writing signed by us or posted by us to the Website or Services. In the event that we update this Agreement and you are made aware of the update, your continued use of the Website or Services after the update shall constitute an agreement to the updated terms.
C. No Partnership. You agree that no joint venture, partnership, employment, or agency relationship exists between you and us as a result of this Agreement or your use of the Website or Services.

E. No Waiver. Our failure to enforce any provision of this Agreement shall in no way be construed to be a present or future waiver of such provision, nor in any way affect the right of any party to enforce each and every such provision thereafter. The express waiver by us of any provision, condition or requirement of this Agreement shall not constitute a waiver of any future obligation to comply with such provision, condition or requirement.
F. Notices. All notices given by you or required under this Agreement shall be in writing and addressed to: KCIC, 1401 I Street NW, Suite 1200, Washington, DC 20005 Attn: Legal Department.

H. Entire Agreement. This Agreement, including the documents expressly incorporated by reference, constitutes the entire agreement between you and us with respect to the Website or Services, and supersedes all prior or contemporaneous communications, whether electronic, oral or written.
