This Agreement is made and entered into by and between you and any person helping you access or use the Platform or the Services, whether as a guest or a registered user (collectively, "you" or "your"), on the one side, and Company on the other side. You and Company are sometimes referred to herein, individually, as a "Party" and, collectively, as the "Parties".
Please read this Agreement carefully before accessing or using the Platform and/or the Services because it constitutes a legally binding contract between you and Company.

Sale of Products and Services. Company or its affiliates or licensees might offer, sell, license, or otherwise make available various products or services (which may include Company’s own products and services or the products and services of third parties) on, through, or in relation to the Platform, some of which might only be made available to you upon completion and submission of an online form or other instructions provided to you by Company or which may be available exclusively online or in limited quantities on or through the Platform.

Prices for, and descriptions of, any products or services offered on or through the Platform are subject to change without notice and in the sole discretion of Company. Company reserves the right to discontinue any product or service at any time. You understand and agree that certain sales of such products or services may be subject to additional terms and conditions of Company.
Additional Transactions with Company. You also understand and agree that certain transactions between you and Company may be subject to certain additional terms and conditions of Company.
- Payments.
Sales Transactions. Sales transactions conducted on or through the Platform will take place through an online shopping cart system (the "Shopping Cart"). Once you proceed to "check-out" or the like, you will be able to review your order, update quantities, remove items, and enter promotional codes, if any, as applicable.
Cancellation of Transactions. Company reserves the right to refuse any order you place. Company may, in its sole discretion, limit or cancel quantities purchased per person, per household, or per order. These restrictions may include orders placed by or under the same User Account, the same credit card, and/or orders that use the same billing and/or shipping address. In the event that Company makes a change to or cancels any of your orders, Company may attempt to notify you by contacting the billing address, phone number, or email provided at the time the order was placed. Company further reserves the right to limit or prohibit orders that, in Company’s sole discretion, appear to be placed by dealers, resellers, or distributors.
Payment Authorization. If you provide Company with your payment information, then you authorize Company to do the following as Company deems necessary, although Company has no obligation to do so: (i) share your payment information with any third-party payment processing vendor(s), as applicable; (ii) obtain your updated payment information from your payment issuer and any third-party payment processing vendor(s), as applicable; and (iii) use your payment information to charge payments that accrue under your accounts with Company in accordance with this Agreement.
Payment Obligations. You agree that you are responsible for the payment of all amounts that accrue under your account(s) with Company, the Platform, and/or in relation to the performance of the Services. You also agree to be responsible for all payments, fines, penalties and other liabilities incurred by any such person or entity that arise out of or relate to payments that you authorize or accept on or through the Platform, including, without limitation, all fees, penalties, taxes and duties; and to be responsible for all expenses (including costs and reasonable outside attorney fees) and interest incurred by any such person or entity to collect any overdue amounts.
Waiver of Claims in Connection with Unauthorized Payments. To the fullest extent permitted by law, you agree to waive all claims against Company and its affiliates related to any unauthorized payments made on, through, or in relation to your account(s) with Company, Company’s third-party sellers and payment processing vendor(s), any other third-party providers, or any other person or entity, regardless of whether they are authorized or unauthorized.
Accurate Payment Information. You represent and warrant to Company that any payment information you provide on or through the Platform is current, complete, and accurate, and that you will promptly notify Company if your payment information has changed (such as a change in address or expiration date), if your payment method has been cancelled, or if you become aware of a breach of security.
Pay-up Front Courses. Pay-up-front courses may be offered by Company (the “Courses”). Payments for all Course and related fees (the “Course Fees”) are non-refundable. Certain of the Courses must be successfully completed within ninety (90) days of payment, after which time (i) your access to such Course will expire, and (ii) you may need to pay additional Course Fees if you would like to re-register for such Course. If a Course with a ninety (90) day requirement is not successfully completed within ninety (90) days of payment, or you fail to satisfy any other requirements for any Courses that are necessary for Company to submit your Course Fees to any applicable State agency, such Course and Course Fees will be forfeited and Company will be under no obligation to refund or pay the Course Fees to the applicable State agency or any other person.
Subscriptions; Auto-Renewal of Fees.
If you select a subscription Service on or through the Platform that has an auto-renewal feature (a “Recurring Subscription”) (including, but not limited to a Course with an auto-renewal feature), then you authorize Company to maintain your account information and charge that account automatically upon the renewal of the Recurring Subscription you choose, with no further action required by you. In the event that Company is unable to charge your account as authorized by you when you enrolled in the Recurring Subscription, Company may, in its sole discretion: (A) bill you for the Recurring Subscription and suspend your access to the applicable Service until payment is received, and/or (B) seek to update your account information through third-party sources (i.e., your bank or a payment processor) to continue charging your account as authorized by you.
Company may change the price for Recurring Subscriptions from time to time in its sole discretion. Price changes for Recurring Subscriptions will take effect at the start of the next subscription period following the date of the price change. As permitted by applicable law, you accept the new price by continuing to use your Recurring Subscription after the price change takes effect. If you do not agree with the price changes, you have the right to reject the change by canceling your Recurring Subscription. Therefore, please make sure you read any notification of price changes (which may be published on a page of the Platform) carefully.
Recurring Subscription payments are non-refundable, and there are no refunds or credits for partially used periods. You may cancel a Recurring Subscription at any time, but if you cancel your Recurring Subscription before the end of the current subscription period, Company will not refund any Recurring Subscription fees already paid by you to Company. Following any such cancellation, you will continue to have access to the applicable Service through the end of your current Recurring Subscription period.
At any time, and for any reason, Company may provide a refund, discount, or other consideration to some or all of Company’s users (“Credits”). The amount and form of such Credits, and the decision to provide them, are at Company’s sole and absolute discretion. The provision of Credits in one instance does not entitle you to Credits in the future for similar instances, nor does it obligate Company to provide Credits in the future under any circumstances.
If you subscribed to any Recurring Subscription on the Platform, you may cancel your Recurring Subscription by contacting Support at support@kalkomey.com or by following the prompts under the “Settings” in your User Account.
No Refunds. Except as otherwise expressly stated in this Agreement, all sales and payments made on, through, or regarding the Platform or any products or services offered, marketed, sold, or provided on, through, or in relation to the Platform are final, irrevocable, and not subject to or eligible for refund or return, in whole or in part.

Arbitration Decisions and Awards. The arbitrator shall render a written final decision on the subject Dispute as soon as practicable and, in any event, not more than forty-five (45) calendar days after the close of evidence and briefing. The arbitrator’s decision shall be written, shall be in accordance with applicable law, and shall be supported by written findings of fact and conclusions of law setting forth the basis for his/her decision. The arbitrator shall have no authority to award punitive, exemplary, or consequential damages, unless such an award is authorized by applicable law. The arbitrator shall have the authority to award attorney fees and expenses if such an award is permitted under this Agreement or applicable law. Subject to any applicable rights of appeal, the final decision of the arbitrator shall be binding and conclusive upon all of the Parties who have been served with proper written notice of the arbitration proceeding as required by this Section 22.

Waiver of Jury Trial and Class Action. Regardless of whether a particular dispute is subject to arbitration or litigation, and to the fullest extent permitted by law, each Party does hereby waive his/her/its right to a trial by jury, to participate as the member of a class in any purported class action or other proceeding, or to name unnamed members in any purported class action or other proceeding.
