5. Membership, Free Trials, Billing and Cancellation
- Memberships
- Ongoing Membership. Your CrushLivePoker membership, which may start with a free trial, will continue month-to-month unless and until you cancel your membership or we terminate it. You must have Internet access and provide us with a current, valid, accepted method of payment (as such may be updated from time to time, "Payment Method") to use the CrushLivePoker service. We will bill the monthly membership fee to your Payment Method. You must cancel your membership at least 10 days before it renews each month in order to avoid billing of the next month's membership fees to your Payment Method.
- Differing Memberships. We may offer a number of membership plans, including special promotional plans or memberships with differing conditions and limitations. Any materially different terms from those described in these Terms of Use will be disclosed at your sign-up or in other communications made available to you. You can find specific details regarding your membership with CrushLivePoker by visiting our website and clicking on the "My Account" link. We reserve the right to modify, terminate or otherwise amend our offered membership plans.
- Free Trials
- Your CrushLivePoker membership may start with a free trial. The free trial period of your membership lasts for one month, or as otherwise specified during sign-up. Free trials may not be combined with any other offers. Free trials are for new and certain former members only. CrushLivePoker reserves the right, in its absolute discretion, to determine your free trial eligibility.
- We will begin billing your Payment Method for monthly membership fees at the end of the free trial period of your membership unless you cancel at least 3 days prior to the end of the free trial period. To view the specific details of your membership, including monthly membership price and end date of your free trial period, visit our website and click the "My Account" link. We may authorize your Payment Method through various methods, including by authorizing up to one month of service as soon as you register.
- You will not receive a notice from us that your free trial period has ended or that the paying portion of your membership has begun. TO CANCEL YOUR MEMBERSHIP, PLEASE EMAIL [email protected]. We will continue to bill your Payment Method on a monthly basis for your membership fee until you cancel as described above.
- Billing
- Recurring Billing. By starting your CrushLivePoker membership, you authorize us to charge to your Payment Method a monthly membership fee at the then-current rate, and any other charges you may incur in connection with your use of the CrushLivePoker service. You acknowledge that the amount billed each month may vary from month to month for reasons that may include differing amounts due to promotional offers and/or changing or adding a plan, and you authorize us to charge your Payment Method for such varying amounts, which may be billed monthly in one or more charges.
- Price Changes. We reserve the right to adjust pricing for our service or any components thereof in any manner and at any time as we may determine in our sole and absolute discretion. Except as otherwise expressly provided for in these Terms of Use, any price changes to your service will take effect following email notice to you.
- Billing Cycle. The membership fee for our service will be billed at the beginning of the paying portion of your membership and each month thereafter unless and until you cancel your membership at least 10 days prior to the beginning of the date on which your payment obligations began ("Billing Date"). We automatically bill your Payment Method each month on either a 30 or 31 day cycle corresponding to the commencement of your paying membership. Membership fees are fully earned upon payment. We reserve the right to change the timing of our billing, in particular, as indicated below, if your Payment Method has not successfully settled. In the event your paying membership began on a day not contained in a given month, we may bill your Payment Method on a day in the applicable month or such other day as we deem appropriate. For example, if you started your CrushLivePoker membership or became a paying member on January 31st, your next payment date is likely to be February 28th, and your Payment Method would be billed on that date. Your renewal date may change due to changes in your Membership. Visit our website and click on the "My Account" link to see your last payment date. We may authorize your Payment Method in anticipation of membership or service-related charges. As used in these Terms of Use, "billing" shall indicate a charge, debit or other payment clearance, as applicable, against your Payment Method. Unless otherwise stated differently, month or monthly refers to your billing cycle.
- No Refunds. PAYMENTS ARE NONREFUNDABLE AND THERE ARE NO REFUNDS OR CREDITS FOR PARTIALLY USED PERIODS. Following any cancellation, however, you will continue to have access to the service through the end of your then-current billing period. At any time, and for any reason, we may provide a refund, discount, or other consideration to some or all of our members ("credits"). The amount and form of such credits, and the decision to provide them, are at our sole and absolute discretion. The provision of credits in one instance does not entitle you to credits in the future for similar instances, nor does it obligate us to provide credits in the future, under any circumstance.
- Payment Methods. You may edit your Payment Method information by visiting our website and clicking on the "My Account" link, available at the top of the pages of the CrushLivePoker website. If a payment is not successfully settled, due to expiration, insufficient funds, or otherwise, and you do not edit your Payment Method information or cancel your account (see, "Cancellation" below), you remain responsible for any uncollected amounts and authorize us to continue billing the Payment Method, as it may be updated. This may result in a change to your payment billing dates. For certain Payment Methods, the issuer of your Payment Method may charge you a foreign transaction fee or other charges. Check with your Payment Method service provider for details.
- Cancellation. You may cancel your Crushlivepoker membership at any time; however, no less than 10 days prior to your Billing Date and you will continue to have access to the Crushlivepoker service through the end of your monthly billing period.

- If you are a CrushLivePoker member in the United States (including its possessions and territories), you and CrushLivePoker agree that any dispute, claim or controversy arising out of or relating in any way to the CrushLivePoker service, these Terms of Use and this Arbitration Agreement, including without limitation the arbitrability of such controversy or claim, will be settled by arbitration in Los Angeles, California in accordance with the then-prevailing Rules of Commercial Arbitration of the American Arbitration Association, subject to the modifications in this Section entitled Arbitration.
- If you elect to seek arbitration, you must first send to CrushLivePoker, by certified mail, a written Notice of your claim ("Notice"). The Notice to CrushLivePoker must be addressed to: 7556 Hampton Ave #306 West Hollywood, CA 90046 ("Notice Address"). If CrushLivePoker initiates arbitration, it will send a written Notice to the email address used for your membership account. A Notice, whether sent by you or by CrushLivePoker, must (a) describe the nature and basis of the claim or dispute; and (b) set forth the specific relief sought ("Demand"). If CrushLivePoker and you do not reach an agreement to resolve the claim within 30 days after the Notice is received, you or CrushLivePoker may commence an arbitration proceeding. You may download or copy a form Notice and a form to initiate arbitration at www.adr.org.
- Any judgment on the awards granted by the arbitrator may be entered in any court having competent jurisdiction thereon. Any such arbitration will be held before a single arbitrator. Unless otherwise agreed by the parties in writing, the arbitrator will only permit limited discovery: such discovery will be limited to document discovery that can reasonably be completed within thirty (30) days, and no deposition discovery will be permitted. No forensic examination of electronic records will be permitted. The arbitrator will have the authority to decide the controversy or claim summarily based upon written pleadings and sworn statements. Unless otherwise agreed by the parties, any final arbitration hearing will occur within ninety (90) days of one party submitting the demand for arbitration, and unless all parties agree otherwise, the hearing will not exceed three (3) days. The arbitrator will issue any ruling within fourteen (14) days following the hearing. The arbitrators will be chosen from a panel of persons knowledgeable in the subject matter of this Agreement.
- Arbitration uses a neutral arbitrator instead of a judge or jury, allows for more limited discovery than in court, and is subject to very limited review by courts. Arbitrators can award the same damages and relief that a court can award. You agree that, by agreeing to these Terms of Use, the U.S. Federal Arbitration Act governs the interpretation and enforcement of this provision, and that you and CrushLivePoker are each waiving the right to a trial by jury or to participate in a class action. This arbitration provision shall survive termination of this Agreement and the termination of your CrushLivePoker membership.
- YOU AND CRUSHLIVEPOKER AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN YOUR OR ITS INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. Further, unless both you and CrushLivePoker agree otherwise, the arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person's claims with your claims, and may not otherwise preside over any form of a representative or class proceeding. If this specific provision is found to be unenforceable, then the entirety of this arbitration provision shall be null and void. The arbitrator may award declaratory or injunctive relief only in favor of the individual party seeking relief and only to the extent necessary to provide relief warranted by that party's individual claim.
18. Additional Terms
Additional terms and conditions may apply to purchases of goods and services and other uses of portions of CrushLivePoker, and you agree to abide by such other terms and conditions.
