However, GameBrix will charge subscription fees to access certain areas of our sites, play certain premium games and participate in related activities on GameBrix. You must have a GameBrix Account and pay the subscription or other fees to participate in these activities. If you must pay a subscription fee to access part of our Service or play a particular game, this information will be posted on GameBrix. Subscription fees and other billing information are published in the Account and Billing Support pages at sales[at]gamebrix.com.
YOUR SUBSCRIPTION FEES ARE PAYABLE IN ADVANCE AND ARE NOT REFUNDABLE IN WHOLE OR IN PART.
GameBrix reserves the right to change our fees or billing methods at any time and GameBrix will provide notice of any such change at least thirty (30) days in advance. All changes will be posted on GameBrix and you are responsible for reviewing the billing section of GameBrix to obtain timely notice of such changes. Your continued use of the Service of thirty (30) days after posting of the changes on GameBrix means that you accept such changes. If any change is unacceptable to you, you may cancel your subscription at any time, but GameBrix will not refund any fees that may have accrued to your Account before cancellation of your subscription, and we will not prorate fees for any subscription. If your use of our services is subject to use or sales tax, then GameBrix may also charge you for any such taxes, in addition to the subscription or other fees published in the billing section of GameBrix.

You may use a credit card to pay for your subscription(s). When you provide credit card information to GameBrix, you represent to GameBrix that you are the authorized user of the credit card that is used to pay subscription or other fees.

As the Account holder, you are responsible for all charges incurred, including applicable taxes, and all purchases made by you or anyone that uses your Account, including your family or friends.

If you accept a free trial subscription, we will begin to bill your Account for that game or activity when the free trial subscription expires, unless you cancel your subscription before that time; or if you agree to terms of any other promotion associated with that subscription. You are always responsible for any Internet service provider, telephone, wireless and other connection fees that you may incur when using GameBrix, even when we offer a free trial subscription. Trial subscriptions may not be transferred at any time to any other user.
C. Fees Charged By Third-Party Sites And Vendors.
We may provide links to other web sites. Some of these web sites may charge separate fees, which are not included in any subscription or other fees that you may pay to GameBrix. GameBrix may also provide access to or through third-party vendors, who provide content, goods and or services on GameBrix, the Internet or via wireless. Any separate charges or obligations you incur in your dealings with these third parties are your responsibility.
Termination Of Account.
GameBrix and you both have the right to terminate or cancel your Account or a particular subscription at any time. You understand and agree that the cancellation of your Account or a particular subscription is your sole right and remedy with respect to any dispute with GameBrix.

Active GameBrix Account holders may not allow former Account holders whose Account has been terminated by GameBrix to use their Accounts. Any delinquent or unpaid Accounts or Accounts with unresolved issues with GameBrix must be settled before GameBrix may allow you to register again.
1. ONLINE CONTENT.
By "Content," we mean the software, communications, images, sounds, and all the material and information you see on our Service. GameBrix, our Members, our affiliates, and our independent content providers provide most of the Content on GameBrix. GameBrix does not pre-screen all Content. You bear the entire risk of the completeness, accuracy or usefulness of Content found on GameBrix.
Strong vulgar language, crude or explicit sexual references and images, discussions of illegal drugs, images of illegal drugs, and hate speech are always inappropriate Content for GameBrix. Content standards may vary depending on where you are on GameBrix, the type of game you are playing and the expectations of the community. Some game play and chat rooms may involve use of stronger language than others, including mild expletives. Always use your best judgment in online conduct. If you would not say something in a room full of people you have never met, or in the workplace, don't post it on our message boards or chat.
GameBrix representatives may monitor your communications on GameBrix. But we cannot monitor all of the Content on GameBrix, and we do not attempt to do so. Some of the areas on GameBrix allow you to filter the chat you see. You can use this feature to reduce your exposure to words you do not wish to see. Reading the game help documents or asking our GameBrix staff members or other players in the game is a great way to learn how to use these tools. If you encounter something you don't want to see, you can report it to the game support or complaint e-mail address for the area in which the incident occurred. GameBrix does not endorse, approve, or prescreen any Content that you or other users communicate on the Service. GameBrix does not assume any responsibility or liability for Content that is generated by Members or other guests on GameBrix. We reserve the right to remove Content that is objectionable to us for any reason. This determination is in our sole discretion, and is final. GameBrix does not assume any liability for any failure to remove, or any delay in removing, Content.
If we removed Content that you created, we may send you a warning. If it's a serious offense or you've violated our rules before, we may ban you from participating on GameBrix and terminate your Account.
2. ONLINE CONDUCT.
Online conduct should be guided by common sense and basic etiquette. The laws that apply in the offline world must be obeyed online as well. We have zero tolerance for illegal behavior on GameBrix. You must also obey rules for use of third party tools, and rules of interactive service providers, state, local, federal laws, or foreign or international law where appropriate. Ignorance of the law is no excuse. We terminate use of GameBrix and cooperate with law enforcement for illegal behavior.
You agree that you will be personally responsible for your use of GameBrix and for all of your communication and activity on the Service, including any Content you contribute, and that you will indentify and hold harmless GameBrix., its affiliates, employees, officers, and directors from any liability or damages arising from your conduct on GameBrix, including any Content that you contribute.
You will violate the Terms of Service if you (or others using your Account) do any of the following:
• Post, transmit, promote, or distribute Content that is illegal.
• Harass, threaten, embarrass, or do anything else to another Member or guest that is unwanted. This means: don't say bad things about them, don't keep sending them unwanted messages, don't attack their race, sexual orientation, religion, heritage, etc. If you disagree with someone, respond to the subject, not the person. •
• Transmit or facilitate distribution of Content that is harmful, abusive, racially or ethnically offensive, vulgar, sexually explicit, defamatory, infringing, invasive of personal privacy or publicity rights, or in a reasonable person's view, objectionable. Hate speech is not tolerated.
