2. DESCRIPTION OF SERVICE
2.1 Yahoo! Personals Subscription
Yahoo! Personals allows paid subscribers to get in touch with anyone on Yahoo! Personals.
3. YAHOO! ID AND YAHOO! WALLET REQUIREMENT
To participate in Premium Services, you must have a valid Yahoo! ID and provide your credit card, billing and shipping information and other information (your "Registration Data"). If you do not have a Yahoo! ID or a Yahoo! Wallet, you will be prompted to complete the registration process for them before you can pay for Premium Services.
4. PAYMENT TERMS
4.1 General Terms
The credit card that you provide as part of your Registration Data for Yahoo! Wallet will automatically and immediately be billed. All currency references are in U.S. dollars.
4.2 Payment for Subscription Plans
Payment occurs on a pre-pay basis and payment will be automatically renewed at the end of the term. Your billing term will depend upon which subscription plan you choose. For example, if you choose the monthly plan, you will be billed every month on the anniversary date of your Registration. If you choose the three-month plan, you will be billed every three months on the anniversary date of your Registration. If you choose the yearly plan, you will be billed every year on the anniversary date of your Registration. Please note: If you have received a free offer for a specific number of days, then you will not be charged for the first time until after your free time period has ended. Subsequent billing dates will be on the anniversary date of your first billing date. For example, if you purchase a monthly membership on October 15th and you get the first 30 days free, then you will not be charged at all until November 14th. (There are 31 days in October.) You would be charged again on December 14th and then again on January 14th, and so on until you decide to cancel.
Upgrades or downgrades between Yahoo! Personals and Yahoo! Premier, and between a monthly plan and quarterly/annual subscription plans, are effective immediately, meaning your new subscription level or plan will trigger a new billing period starting on the date of upgrade or downgrade. Your credit card will reflect both (i) a refund pro-rated to the number of days remaining in your old subscription level or plan, and (ii) a charge for the full amount of the new subscription level or plan.
4.3 Cancellation for Subscription Plans
Please note, except as described at the bottom of these Additional Terms, and unless Yahoo! gives notice to the contrary, payment for subscriptions are non-refundable. If you cancel your subscription before the end of the term for which you paid, your cancellation will take effect at the end of that term. For example, if you subscribe to a monthly plan, and you cancel after 15 days, you will still have the service until the end of the 30 days.
4.4 Termination
If your credit card is invalid for any reason, your Premium Services account will be suspended or cancelled immediately and all the information contained within it deleted permanently. Yahoo! accepts no liability for information that is deleted due to an invalid credit card.
4.5 Additional Terms
(a) If by reason of death or disability you are unable to receive all the Premium Services for which you contracted, you or your estate may elect to be relieved of the obligation to make payments for the Premium Services other than those received before death or the onset of disability, except as provided in paragraph 4.5 (a) (3).
    (1) If you have prepaid any amount for the Premium Services, so much of the amount prepaid that is allocable to services that the buyer has not received shall be promptly refunded to you or your representative.
    (2) "Disability" means a condition which precludes you from physically using the Premium Services during the term of disability and the condition is verified in writing by a physician designated and remunerated by you. The written verification of the physician shall be presented to Yahoo!.
    (3) If the physician determines that the duration of the disability will be less than six months, Yahoo! may extend the term of these Additional Terms for a period of six months at no additional charge to you in lieu of cancellation.
5. YAHOO'S RESERVATION OF RIGHTS
Yahoo! expressly reserves the right to immediately modify, suspend or terminate Registrant's account and refuse current or future use of any Yahoo! service, including Premium Services, if Yahoo!, in its sole discretion believes Registrant has: (i) violated or tried to violate the rights of others; or (ii) if we become aware of information indicating a safety concern for you, other Yahoo! Personals users, or the general public, or (iii) acted inconsistently with the spirit or letter of the TOS, the Guidelines or these Additional Terms.
6. INVALIDITY OF SPECIFIC TERMS
If any provision of these additional terms or any document incorporated by reference is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, the parties nevertheless agree that the court should endeavor to give effect to the parties' intentions as reflected in the provision, and the other provisions of the such documents remain in full force and effect.
7. LOCATION OF LAWSUIT
The Yahoo! Terms of Service, which apply to your Premium Services, provides that both you and Yahoo! agree to submit to the personal and exclusive jurisdiction of the courts located within the county of Santa Clara, California.
