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].
