- DESCRIPTION OF SERVICES
NRG will provide one user-id to access the site and its contents for which
you are purchasing membership.
- BILLING
"National Research Group" will appear on your credit card billing statement
for all charges made.
- PAYMENT/FEE
Sites will have periodic subscription fees that are defined by the terms of
the site at the time of the initial enrollment for subscription. The member
is responsible for such fees according to the terms of the site. Once a
member has accessed the site using the user-id, assigned to the member,
subscription fees become non-refundable.
- AUTOMATIC RECURRING BILLING
As determined by the Webmaster of the site, subscription fees may be
automatically renewed at the end of the original term selected, for a
similar period of time, unless notice is received from the subscriber seven
(7) days prior to renewal. An email will also be sent to the email address
we have on file, as entered by you, as a reminder (7) days before the
subscription is to be renewed. It is very important you make sure the email
address you enter is correct in order to receive notices. Unless and until
this agreement is cancelled in accordance with the terms hereof, subscriber
hereby authorizes NRG to charge subscriber's credit card to pay for the
ongoing cost of membership.
- ELECTRONIC RECEIPT
Subscribers may request a copy of the account of charges made for the use of
the site. Subscriber foregoes this right if such request is not made.
Requests must be made directly to NRG.
- CANCELLATION
At any time, and without cause, NRG, the site, or the subscriber upon
notification of the other may terminate at subscription to the Service by
electronic or conventional mail, or by telephone or fax. When the member
requests the termination, SUBSCRIPTION FEES ARE NOT REFUNDED.
Subscribers are liable for charges incurred by them until termination of
service. If you request cancellation or request a refund from your bank or
card issuer due to unauthorized or fraudulent use, NRG can at its
discretion, to prevent further unauthorized use, block your account or card
from use at all NRG clients' websites. This will not however prevent
unauthorized use at non-NRG customers, and is not a substitution for your
contacting your financial institution to prevent further misuse.
- BOOKMARKING
Subscriber agrees that at any time they will not bookmark any page to the
site that will allow the subscriber to bypass the terms and conditions of
the site upon entering. If such a bookmark exists, said bookmark will

admission that subscriber is of legal age of majority in their state,
country or region.

than the subscriber, except as may be specifically required by law or court
order. Unauthorized access to the site is a breach of this Agreement and a
violation of law. Subscribers acknowledge that the Webmaster of the site may
track through the use of special software each subscriber's entry to the
site. If any breach of security, theft or loss of user-id, or unauthorized
disclosure of user-id occurs, subscriber must immediately notify NRG or the
site of said security breach. Subscriber will remain liable for unauthorized
use of service until NRG or the site is notified of the security breach by

unenforceable for any reason, the remaining provisions shall continue to be

written, construed, and enforced as so limited.
