Terms & Conditions

Effective May 1, 2019

Please read these Terms and Conditions (“Terms” or “Terms and Conditions”) carefully before using the https://boardroomwomen.wpengine.com/ website (“Service”) operated by Women in the Boardroom™ (“WIB®”,”us”, “we”, or “our”).

Your access to and use of the Service is conditioned on your acceptance of and compliance with these Terms. These Terms apply to all visitors, users, and others, who either access or use the Service.

By accessing or using the Service, you agree to be bound by these Terms. These terms shall not be altered or omitted should you disagree with any provisions. If you do not accept the entirety of these terms, then you may not access or use the Service.

Subscriptions

The Service is billed on a subscription basis (“Subscription(s)” or “Annual Subscription(s)”). The term of a Subscription is one year. You will be billed in advance on a recurring annual basis.

Automatic Renewal Terms

Women in the Boardroom® Subscriptions are subject to automatic renewal. If you become a Subscriber, you agree that Women in the Boardroom™ may submit annual charges to your chosen payment method without further authorization from you. These charges will be submitted annually unless you, the Subscriber, provides us notice that you wish to terminate this authorization or to change your payment method prior to the automatic renewal date. With respect of Women in the Boardroom™ subscriptions subject to automatic renewal, you agree that Women in the Boardroom™ may submit annual charges to your chosen payment method without further authorization from you, until you provide written, prior notice that you wish to terminate this authorization or to change your payment method. You agree that such notice will not affect charges submitted before Women in the Boardroom™ reasonably could act.

Annual Subscriptions

By purchasing an Annual Subscription, you agree and acknowledge that your Subscription has an initial pre-payment feature for one full year of Service and a recurring Annual Subscription renewal fee at the then-current Annual Subscription rate. You acknowledge and accept responsibility for all recurring charges prior to cancellation, including, where applicable, any charges processed by Women in the Boardroom® after the expiration date of your payment card or any charges that fail to be deposited to Women in the Boardroom™ due to insufficient funds. The Subscriber understands that they will be notified of all subscription fee increases via email at the time of the increase, and accepts and authorizes Women in the Boardroom™ to charge the increased amount on the automatic renewal date, unless the Subscriber cancels their Subscription before the renewal date.

Automatic Annual Renewal Terms

At the end of each Annual Subscription, your Subscription will be automatically extended for another one (1) year term and your payment method will automatically be charged the Annual Subscription renewal fee at the then-current Annual Subscription rate, until and unless you cancel your Annual Subscription renewal.

Cancellation Policy for Annual Subscription Renewals

An Annual Subscription may only be canceled by providing five (5) business days written notice prior to the date of the renewal of the Annual Subscription. To cancel your Annual Subscription renewal for the following year, at any time after you were billed for the then-current year, you may send written notice membership@womenintheboardroom.com.
