Unused fees are non-refundable and, if applicable, Anapata reserves the right to charge you the early termination fee agreed to by you at the time you subscribed to a Firm Account. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, Anapata retains the absolute right to immediately suspend or terminate your account, and terminate this Agreement, if the charges to your credit card for any fees are refused for any reason.

If Anapata terminates your use of any part or all of the Firm Features prior to the completion of your subscription period (except if such termination is a result of your breach of any obligations, covenants, representations, warranties, or terms in these Terms, in which case Anapata may terminate without liability as described above), your sole remedy is a pro-rata refund of the purchase price paid for the unavailable service. Upon termination of your Firm Account for any reason, your continued use of the Anapata Site is subject to these Terms.
