Payment of Fees
A 15 day trial period begins when you submit the form titled "Trial Signup". After your 15 day free Trial Period ends, you will be charged a subscription fee. If you subscribe to a service on the Site that requires payment of a fee, you agree to pay all fees associated with such service. Fees are incurred regardless of use or lack of use of the subscription. For all charges for services on the Site, we will bill your credit/debit card. Recurring charges are billed in advance of services.

You agree to provide us with accurate and complete billing information, including valid credit/debit card information, your name, address and telephone number, and to provide us with any changes to such information within 10 days of the change. If, for any reason, your credit/debit card company refuses to pay the amount billed for services, you agree that we may, at our option, suspend or terminate your subscription and/or access to the Services and require you to pay the overdue amount by other means acceptable to us. We may charge a fee for reinstatement of suspended or terminated accounts. You agree that until your subscription or access to the Site is terminated, you will continue to accrue charges for which you remain responsible, even if you do not use the services.

In the event legal action is necessary to collect balances due, you agree to reimburse us for all expenses incurred to recover sums due, including attorney fees and other legal expenses. Lightbulb Tutoring reserves the right to waive fees for qualifying customers at its discretion.


Extended Break/Vacation - Pausing Subscription
You may request your subscription be paused if requested up to 14 days before your next subscription payment is due. Any period your subscription is paused will not be counted towards the two-month period for cancellation fee forgiveness outlined in our Cancellation/Refund Policy. You may pause your subscription for up to a total period of 3 months.


Cancellation/Refund Policy
A cancellation is defined as the removal of a student (or students) from one or both of the subjects we offer. Subscriptions may be canceled at any time. To cancel, you must email contact@lightbulbtutoring.org stating that you would like to cancel your subscription and your reason for cancellation. You cannot reply to an existing email to send your cancellation email. We must also receive a submission from you on the form with the following URL (https://form.jotform.com/230686269526062). If a subscription is canceled before the trial period expires, or two months after the expiry of the trial period, cancellation will occur free of charge. Otherwise, a fee of $95 USD will be charged before cancellation. The reason for the cancellation fee being $95 is that this is the reasonable cost for the time to cancel the account. Canceled subscriptions will not receive any refund. Also, Lightbulb Tutoring will not refund any subscription payments that have already been made.
