1. The Portal.The Portal is an extranet website service comprised of (a) computing services; (b) information and other content provided by PIXELS & PERSUASION and users; and (c) access to PIXELS & PERSUASION services and information. PIXELS & PERSUASION may, from time to time, in its sole discretion and without notice, change or discontinue the Portal or add to, revise, or delete any or all aspects of the Portal. At any time and without notice, PIXELS & PERSUASION in its sole discretion may elect, but is not obligated, to introduce or grant different grades of service, introduce or grant different degrees of access to information and/or analysis, or introduce new features and future versions of the Portal which may change functions, introduce new or revised security restrictions, or limit access to information and/or analysis. PIXELS & PERSUASION may limit, create different priorities for different users or update and/or cancel some or all of the functions of the Portal at any time and without notice. PIXELS & PERSUASION may or may not make any such services, features or changes available to User, and PIXELS & PERSUASION shall incur no liability in connection with any such introduction, grant or change in services or features. User agrees to bear all risks and hold PIXELS & PERSUASION harmless for any and all effects that any of the above changes may have on User’s ability to use the Portal for any purpose. By continuing to use the Portal after notice of any change is posted on the Portal, User signifies its consent to all such changes, including but not limited to all changes to this Agreement. User is responsible for all equipment, telephone connectivity and other services necessary to access the Portal. PIXELS & PERSUASION further reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to modify, supplement, delete, discontinue or remove any file, publication, information, communication or other content appearing on, uploaded to or transmitted through the Portal. PIXELS & PERSUASION provides the Portal for the purpose of sharing positive information and ideas, inspiring creativity, fostering the PIXELS & PERSUASION Affiliate network, and streamlining access to the PIXELS & PERSUASION user resources (the “Purpose”).
2. Service Fee. To access the Portal and use  the Service, User will be required to pay a fee to PIXELS & PERSUASION for the Service (“Course Fee”) and create a registered profile with PIXELS & PERSUASION . The total Course Fee is $297.00 USD, plus any upsells User may choose to purchase. From time to time, PIXELS & PERSUASION may offer different terms, payment options, and/or discounts, in which case the fees for such Service may vary. The Course Fee is non-refundable except as expressly set forth in this Agreement.
3. Payment Method and Authorization to Bill.User must provide a current and valid method of payment to PIXELS & PERSUASION , such as a credit card or debit card (“Payment Method”), to process the Course Fee. Payment of User’s Course Fee together with User’s registered profile will establish User’s registered account (“Registered Account”). By providing PIXELS & PERSUASION with a Payment Method and creating a registered profile with PIXELS & PERSUASION , User agrees to pay PIXELS & PERSUASION any applicable taxes and service fees on the designated Course Fee. User is responsible for all charges incurred in connection with User’s Course Fee.

User authorizes PIXELS & PERSUASION to charge the Course Fee to User’s Payment Method on the date PIXELS & PERSUASION User provides PIXELS & PERSUASION with User’s Payment Method unless User sets up a payment plan through PIXELS & PERSUASION prior to User providing PIXELS & PERSUASION with User’s Payment Method.

If PIXELS & PERSUASION is unable to obtain payment the first time PIXELS & PERSUASION attempts to charge the Payment Method, PIXELS & PERSUASION may attempt to charge repeatedly until payment in full is received.  USER ACKNOWLEDGES THAT, IF ANY PAYMENT BY THE USER’S PAYMENT METHOD IS NOT COMPLETED (OR IS REVERSED) AFTER THREE ATTEMPTS TO CHARGE IT BY PIXELS & PERSUASION AT ANY TIME DURING THE USER’S COURSE FEE, USER’S ACCESS TO THE PORTAL WILL BE SUSPENDED UNTIL THE AMOUNT USER OWES IS PAID.

4. User’s Responsibilities Under This Agreement: If at any time PIXELS & PERSUASION is unable to charge User’s Payment Method for the Course Fee due to insufficient funds, expired or invalid account details, or otherwise, User remains responsible for the cost of such Course Fee and all other amounts User owes under this Agreement. It is User’s responsibility to update and maintain the Payment Method associated with User’s Course Fee. It is User’s responsibility to ensure that the Payment Method is valid at all times and has not expired.

User may change or update User’s Payment Method at any time by contacting PIXELS & PERSUASION at the email address listed below. Failure to use the Portal does not relieve User of responsibility for payment of User’s Course Fee. In addition, regardless of the number of times the Portal is used, there are no refunds on amounts paid on any Course Fee.

5. Cancellation and Refund. PIXELS & PERSUASION may terminate the Service with cause at any time upon thirty (30) days prior written notice to User.

PIXELS & PERSUASION will issue a full refund to the User if the User (i) provides written notice to PIXELS & PERSUASION to terminate the Service within sixty (60) days from the date User first registered for the Service, (ii) completes the PIXELS & PERSUASION refund request form, and (iii) sends a copy of the completed PIXELS & PERSUASION refund request form and a copy of the completed homework assignments for Module #1 and Module #2 in the Service to PIXELS & PERSUASION via email within sixty (60) days from the date User first registered for the Service.

User will immediately cease to have access to the Portal upon contacting PIXELS & PERSUASION for a refund.

NO PAYMENTS ARE REFUNDABLE AFTER THIRTY (30) DAYS FROM THE DATE USER FIRST REGISTERED FOR THE SERVICE. NO PAYMENTS ARE REFUNDABLE IF THE USER DOES NOT COMPLETE THE 30-DAY CLIENT ACQUISITION ACTION PLAN. By accepting the terms of this Agreement, User agrees and understand that User is foregoing the right to claim any refund of fees paid for access and use of the Service offered by PIXELS & PERSUASION after the thirty (30) day refund period.

IT IS THE RESPONSIBILITY OF THE USER TO DETERMINE PAY PERIODS BY CONTACTING PIXELS & PERSUASION .

At any time, and for any reason, PIXELS & PERSUASION may provide a refund, discount, or other consideration to some or all of its users (“Credits”). The amount and form of such Credits, and the decision to provide them, are at Pixels & Persuasion’s sole and absolute discretion. The provision of credits in one instance does not entitle User to credits in the future for similar instances, nor does it obligate PIXELS & PERSUASION to provide credits in the future, under any circumstance.

6. User Access.PIXELS & PERSUASION reserves the right to suspend or terminate User’s access to the Portal and to terminate this Agreement without notice to User, at any time, in the event: (a) User ceases or fails, for any reason, to meet the definition of a User, as determined solely by PIXELS & PERSUASION ; (b) User fails to honor or is in breach of any term or condition of this Agreement, as determined solely by PIXELS & PERSUASION ;  and (c) User engages in any Prohibited Use of Portal (see Section 15 hereof) or any other conduct which, in the sole judgment of PIXELS & PERSUASION , compromises or may compromise the value, integrity or viability of the Portal or detracts from the reliability or reputation of such extranet service or of the PIXELS & PERSUASION name or organization.
