SERVICE FEES AND BILLING METHODS; AUTOMATIC RENEWAL
HUNGARIAN CONNECT will charge You a membership fee in order to provide the Service. Your membership fee is the amount You were charged for Your subscription or Plan, not including any promotions or discounts that may have been applied (the „Membership Fee”). For this or other reasons, the Membership Fee might be different than the amount paid by another new or existing member who purchased the same services in the same market. You may check by calling our representative if You have any questions. You acknowledge that HUNGARIAN CONNECT reserves the right, at any time, to modify its Membership Fees and billing methods. Membership Fees for access to the Service may be made either on a 6 monthly or annual basis. Annual Membership Fees may be paid in advance by check, credit card, debit card or PayPal. Monthly Membership Fees and Additional List Fees may only be paid in advance by credit card, debit card or PayPal. All membership subscriptions will be automatically renewed upon the terms set forth below, unless such membership subscription is cancelled or terminated as provided below or unless You opt out of the automatic renewal feature as provided below.
Monthly Payment Subscriptions:
If You currently have or select a 6 months payment subscription, every 6 months will automatically renew Your membership on a 6 months basis at the Membership Fee (as such Membership Fee may be modified as provided above) using the credit card, debit card or other payment information on file with HUNGARIAN CONNECT. Every 6 months renewal payment will take place on or about Your expiration date. If the renewal of Your 6 monthly membership fails for any reason, we will attempt to process Your renewal for a period up to one hundred eighty (180) days in accordance with our standard renewal practices then in effect (which may be modified from time to time by HUNGARIAN CONNECT). Except as otherwise required by applicable law, You agree that HUNGARIAN CONNECT will not provide You with any notices prior to every 6 months renewal payment.
Annual Payment Subscriptions:
If You select an annual payment subscription with HUNGARIAN CONNECT will automatically renew Your annual membership for one year at the Membership Fee for annual memberships (as such membership fee may be modified as provided above) using the credit card, debit card or other payment information on file with HUNGARIAN CONNECT. Such annual renewal payment will take place on or about Your expiration date. If the renewal of Your annual membership fails for any reason, we will attempt to process Your renewal for a period up to one hundred eighty (180) days in accordance with our standard renewal practices then in effect (which may be modified from time to time by HUNGARIAN CONNECT). Except as otherwise required by applicable law, You agree that HUNGARIAN CONNECT will not provide You with any notices prior to each annual renewal payment.
Upgrading and Downgrading Plans:
If You upgrade Your Plan during the term (e.g., from RED to GREEN), You will be purchasing an additional annual subscription. At the time of the upgrade, Your first subscription shall be upgraded to the new Plan, and You agree to pay for the new Plan at that time. Your second subscription shall begin at the expiration of the first subscription. For the sake of clarity, the fee will be the amount of the new Plan at the time You requested the upgrade.
If You downgrade Your Plan during the term (e.g., from GREEN to RED), You will not receive a refund of the difference between Your current Plan and the new Plan. This applies to downgrades and to cancellations.
Canceling Your Subscription:
If you decide to cancel Your subscription, in order to avoid renewal, Your cancellation request must be received by mail or email 15 days prior to Your scheduled renewal payment date. You may cancel Your subscription by contacting HUNGARIAN CONNECT by first class certified mail at 2201 N. 54TH AVE, HOLLYWOOD FL 33021; by telephone at 786-413-6586; or by email at hungarianconnect@gmail.com
COMPLAINT RESOLUTION PROCESS
If You have a dispute with a Service Provider and an active, qualifying Plan, You may request HUNGARIAN CONNECT’S assistance in communicating with that Service Provider about Your desired resolution (the „Complaint Resolution Process” or the „CRP”).
You may request to participate in the CRP through our Website or by contacting a member care representative. You then will be requested to complete and return to HUNGARIAN CONNECT certain documentation relating to Your complaint. Shortly thereafter, a member of our Complaint Resolution Team will contact You to obtain additional information and understand Your desired resolution. The Complaint Resolution Team then will contact the Service Provider to explain Your complaint and desired resolution and to ask the Service Provider to respond in writing within a reasonable timeframe.
If the Service Provider agrees to Your desired resolution or supplies a counteroffer that You find acceptable, the case is considered resolved, Your review regarding the Service Provider will be removed, and You will have the opportunity to submit updated feedback about Your experience. If the Service Provider responds but does not resolve the matter as described above, Your feedback shall remain unchanged.
Your participation in the CRP is at HUNGARIAN CONNECT’s sole discretion. We reserve the right to reject Your request to participate for any reason. By participating in the CRP, You consent to have Your complaint and a story about the circumstances relating to the CRP published in our monthly magazine and online publications. For complaints involving health care providers, we may ask You to sign a HIPAA (Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act) waiver to allow the Service Provider to discuss the issue with us.
The CRP is not a legal forum and HUNGARIAN CONNECT does not, at any time, become a party to Your dispute with the Service Provider. HUNGARIAN CONNECT is neither a mediator nor an arbitrator and does not provide legal advice or assistance. If You believe legal services are necessary or would be helpful to resolve Your dispute with a Service Provider, HUNGARIAN CONNECT encourages You to consult with an attorney. HUNGARIAN CONNECT does not guarantee that Your participation in the CRP will result in a satisfactory outcome or Your desired resolution. You agree that, by offering the CRP, HUNGARIAN CONNECT does not waive any of its disclaimers or limitations of liability, including without limitation those set forth under Sections 14 (Service Providers), 24 (Warranty Disclaimer), and 25 (Limitation of Liability).
