6. Fees and Purchase Terms.
   1. Payment.  You agree to pay all fees or charges to your Account in accordance with the fees, charges and billing terms in effect at the time a fee or charge is due and payable.  You must provide Red Giant with a valid credit card (Visa, MasterCard, or any other issuer accepted by us) (“Payment Provider”).  Your Payment Provider agreement governs your use of the designated credit card, and you must refer to that agreement and not the Terms to determine your rights and liabilities.  By providing Red Giant with your credit card number and associated payment information, you agree that Red Giant is authorized to immediately invoice your Account for all fees and charges due and payable to Red Giant hereunder and that no additional notice or consent is required.  You agree to immediately notify Red Giant of any change in your billing address or the credit card used for payment hereunder.  Red Giant reserves the right at any time to change its prices and billing methods, either immediately upon posting on Red Giant Properties or by e-mail delivery to you.
   2. Software Subscription Fees.  You will be responsible for payment of the applicable fee subscription based Software license(s) (each, a “Subscription Software Fee”) at the time you create your Account and select your monthly or annual package, as applicable (each, a “Subscription Software Commencement Date”).  Except as set forth in the Terms, all fees for the Software are non-refundable.  No contract will exist between you and Red Giant for the Services until Red Giant accepts your order by a confirmatory e-mail, SMS/MMS message, or other appropriate means of communication.
   3. Taxes.  Red Giant’s fees are net of any applicable Sales Tax.  If any Software, or payments for any Software, under the Terms are subject to Sales Tax in any jurisdiction and you have not remitted the applicable Sales Tax to Red Giant, you will be responsible for the payment of such Sales Tax and any related penalties or interest to the relevant tax authority, and you will indemnify Red Giant for any liability or expense we may incur in connection with such Sales Taxes.  Upon our request, you will provide us with official receipts issued by the appropriate taxing authority, or other such evidence that you have paid all applicable taxes.  For purposes of this section, “Sales Tax” shall mean any sales or use tax, and any other tax measured by sales proceeds, that Red Giant is permitted to pass to its customers, that is the functional equivalent of a sales tax where the applicable taxing jurisdiction does not otherwise impose a sales or use tax.
   4. Automatic Renewal.  Your subscription will continue indefinitely until terminated in accordance with the Terms.  After your initial subscription period, and again after any subsequent subscription period, your subscription will automatically commence on the first day following the end of such period (each a “Renewal Commencement Date”) and continue for an additional equivalent period, at Red Giant’s then-current price for such subscription.  You agree that your Account will be subject to this automatic renewal feature unless you cancel your subscription at any time prior to the Renewal Commencement Date.  If you do not wish your Account to renew automatically, or if you want to change or terminate your subscription, please log in and go to your account settings.  If you cancel your subscription, you may use your subscription until the end of your then-current subscription term; your subscription will not be renewed after your then-current term expires.  However, you will not be eligible for a prorated refund of any portion of the subscription fee paid for the then-current subscription period.  By subscribing, you authorize Red Giant to charge your Payment Provider now, and again at the beginning of any subsequent subscription period.  Upon renewal of your subscription, if Red Giant does not receive payment from your Payment Provider, (i) you agree to pay all amounts due on your Account upon demand, and/or (ii) you agree that Red Giant may either terminate or suspend your subscription and continue to attempt to charge your Payment Provider until payment is received (upon receipt of payment,  your Account will be activated and for purposes of automatic renewal, your new subscription commitment period will begin as of the day payment was received).
   5. Disputes.  You must notify us in writing within seven (7) days after receiving your credit card statement, if you dispute any of our charges on that statement or such dispute will be deemed waived.  Billing disputes should be notified to the following address: customerservice@redgiant.com.
7. Indemnification.  You agree to indemnify and hold Red Giant, its parents, subsidiaries, affiliates, officers, employees, agents, partners and licensors (collectively, the “Red Giant Parties”) harmless from any losses, costs, liabilities and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) relating to or arising out of: (a) Your Content; (b) your violation of the Terms; or (c) your violation of any applicable laws, rules or regulations.  Red Giant reserves the right, at its own cost, to assume the exclusive defense and control of any matter otherwise subject to indemnification by you, in which event you will fully cooperate with Red Giant in asserting any available defenses.  This provision does not require you to indemnify any of the Red Giant Parties for any unconscionable commercial practice by such party or for such party’s fraud, deception, false promise, misrepresentation or concealment, suppression or omission of any material fact in connection with the Website.  You agree that the provisions in this section will survive any termination of your Account, the Terms or your access to Red Giant Properties.
