education institution where you are a student) (each, a “Third Party Payer”),
the Third Party Payer may have provided us with information about you (such as
your email address or name) to enable us to provide you with access to a Service
and distinguish you from other users. If you access a Service using a password,
you are solely responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of that password.
You agree to notify us promptly if you change your billing or delivery address
or email address so we can continue to contact you and send any notices
described hereunder. If you fail to notify us promptly of a change, then any
notice we send to your old address shall be deemed sufficient notice.

or any other content, product, or service offered by us through the Services. If
you are less than 18 years of age and want to make any such purchase, please ask
your parent or guardian to complete the purchase on your behalf. You agree to
pay the subscription fees and any other charges incurred in connection with your
account for a Service (including any applicable taxes) at the rates in effect
when the charges were incurred. If your subscription includes access to areas
containing premium content or services, your access to such areas may be subject
to additional fees, terms and conditions, which will be separately disclosed in
such areas. Unless you have paid by check, we will bill all charges
automatically to your credit or debit card. Subscription fees will be billed at
the beginning of your subscription and any renewal. As a general matter, all
fees and charges are non-refundable. We reserve the right to issue refunds or

bundle, by following the procedures for such bundle described in the

the end of your then-current subscription term. If we cancel your subscription,

by us, which may be on or prior to the end of your then-current subscription
term. In either case, your status will change to that of a registered
non-subscriber user (or a free registered user) with respect to that Service. As
a registered non-subscriber user, you may have limited access to the Services,
and any such access and use will remain subject to the provisions of this
Agreement and our Privacy Notice. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event we

access to any Service.

party a written statement with their name, address, contact information, the
facts about the Dispute, and relief requested (the “Dispute Notice”). Dispute
Notices must be addressed to Dow Jones & Company, Inc., 1211 Avenue of the
Americas, New York, NY 10036, ATTN: Legal Department. For a period of 60
calendar days after receipt of a Dispute Notice (which can be extended by

deadlines are tolled), the parties shall attempt to resolve the Dispute in good
faith. Dispute Notice recipients may demand an informal Dispute resolution
conference that both parties shall personally attend.

Compliance with this Section 16.1 is a condition precedent to initiating
arbitration or a small claims action. If the Dispute is not resolved within the
60 days, then either party may proceed in accordance with the below. This
section does not apply to Disputes involving intellectual property or Section

(collectively, “Excluded Claims”). YOUR AGREEMENT TO ARBITRATION MEANS THAT FOR
ALL DISPUTES, EXCEPT FOR EXCLUDED CLAIMS, YOU ARE GIVING UP YOUR RIGHTS TO FILE

A NEUTRAL ARBITRATOR. IN ARBITRATION, THERE IS NO JUDGE OR JURY AND THERE IS
LESS DISCOVERY AND APPELLATE REVIEW THAN IN COURT.

16.3 WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL, CLASS ACTIONS, AND CLASS ARBITRATIONS. THE PARTIES
WAIVE THE RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL AND TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION, OR ANY
OTHER FORM OF REPRESENTATIVE ACTION, WHETHER IN COURT OR IN ARBITRATION. EACH
PARTY MAY PROCEED IN ANY DISPUTE ONLY IN THAT PARTY'S INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND
NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY CLASS ACTION OR CLASS ARBITRATION.

By entering into this Agreement, independent of the agreement to arbitrate and
waiver of class arbitration, you are giving up the ability to participate in or
bring a class action in court for all claims, including but not limited to
Excluded Claims. If this waiver of class actions and class arbitrations is
deemed unenforceable, neither you nor Dow Jones is entitled to arbitration;
instead all Disputes will be resolved in court as noted below.

16.4 WAIVER OF MASS ARBITRATION FILINGS.

You and Dow Jones waive the right to file any Dispute as part of a Mass
Arbitration Filing. A “Mass Arbitration Filing” includes instances in which you
or Dow Jones are represented by a law firm or collection of firms that has filed
25 or more arbitration demands of a substantially similar nature against the
other party within 180 days of the arbitration demand filed on your or Dow
Jones's behalf, and the law firm or collection of firms seek to simultaneously
arbitrate all arbitration demands. No arbitrator shall arbitrate any Mass
Arbitration Filing. If this waiver of Mass Arbitration Filings is deemed
unenforceable, neither you nor Dow Jones is entitled to arbitration; instead all
Disputes will be resolved in court as noted below and subject to Section 16.3.

16.5 All arbitrations shall be filed with and administered by JAMS under its
Streamlined Arbitration Rules and Procedures, available at
https://www.jamsadr.org. The demand must be personally signed by the party
initiating arbitration and must certify that the party has complied with Section
16.1 above. . The arbitrator may award any relief or sanctions against all
appropriate persons for any claim or relief that is frivolous or brought for an
improper purpose.

16.6 All issues are for the arbitrator to decide, except that issues relating to
the scope, application, and enforceability of the waiver provisions in 16.3 and
16.4 are for the court to decide. New York law applies to any arbitration under
this Agreement, but the Federal Arbitration Act governs the interpretation and
enforcement of the arbitration agreement.

16.7 You may request an in person hearing in your hometown. If the Arbitrator
finds the costs and fees of an Arbitration you initiate will be prohibitive as
compared to litigation in court, we will pay as much of your Arbitration filing
and arbitrator fees as the Arbitrator deems necessary to prevent the Arbitration
from being cost-prohibitive. Payment of fees will be governed by JAMS rules.
JAMS has discretion to reduce fees and a good-faith challenge to the fees does
not constitute a waiver or breach of this Agreement.

16.8 Right to Opt Out of Arbitration.

You may opt out of the mandatory arbitration provisions of this Agreement by
sending written notice of your opt out along with your name and email address
used to set up your account to Dow Jones & Co Inc. 1211 6th Ave, New York, NY
10036 or email to ArbitrationOptOut@dowjones.com, within 30 days after first
becoming subject to this Arbitration Agreement. If you opt out of this
Arbitration Agreement, all other parts of this Agreement will still apply to
you. Opting out of this Arbitration Agreement has no effect on any other current
or future Arbitration Agreements you may have with us. This opt-out does not
apply to the class action waiver in Section 16.3.

16.9 Judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any
federal or state court of competent jurisdiction located in the County of New
York, New York.

the Agreement, or portion thereof, to be invalid or unenforceable, that

give effect to the intent of the Agreement, and otherwise will be severable with
the remainder of the provision and Agreement continuing to be valid and
enforceable in full force and effect.
