This title participates in our Automatic Subscription Renewal Program
Prices for future subscriptions will be at then prevailing rates.
Auto renewal ensures that our customers are always up-to-date with the most critical information and new developments in their fields as well as continuing to receive updates to our products without interruption of service.
By enrolling your product(s) in our Automatic Subscription Renewal Program, subscriptions automatically renew at the end of the term without any further action on your part, until you cancel your participation in the auto-renew program.
Should you decide for any reason that you no longer wish to be enrolled in the automatic renewal program, or you did not intend to enroll, you may cancel at any time. You can cancel by calling Customer Service at 1.800.638.3030 or emailing [email protected].
Under the Automatic Subscription Renewal Program, all subscriptions are renewed at one-year increments. If you want to be auto-renewed with a multi-year subscription, call Customer Service at 1.800.638.3030. You are not required to renew any minimum number of times.
The cost of the renewal will be the subscription price in effect at the time of each renewal including applicable sales tax and shipping and handling charges. Subscription renewal prices are subject to increase in the future.
Enrolling a subscription product under our automatic renewal program does not affect our cancellation policy. If you have any questions on our cancellation policy, please call Customer Service at 1.800.638.3030 or emailing [email protected].
