VoterBuzz™ will use good faith efforts to notify you prior to the effectiveness of any significant change to the Fee Schedule. If you receive special discounts through a marketing partner, those discounts may not be available if you cease to continue to be a customer of the marketing partner, in which case VoterBuzz™'s standard rates will apply.

If VoterBuzz™ is for any reason unable to effect automatic payment via your credit card, VoterBuzz™ will attempt to notify you via email and your VoterBuzz™ account will be disabled until payment is received. Amounts paid for the Products, including prepayments, are not refundable. VoterBuzz™ is required to collect and remit sales tax from its customers located in state and local jurisdictions where software delivered as a service is taxable and where VoterBuzz™ maintains a physical presence. VoterBuzz™ determines your local taxing jurisdiction based on the billing address that you list in the "My Account" section of your account.
