If you disagree with a change to these Terms of Service, you have the right to cancel the Services; provided, that your continued use of the Services for more than 30 days after we deliver notice of a change will constitute your acceptance of the change.
2. Charges and Billing
a. Payment of Charges: Billing may commence on or after the earlier of (i) the activation of any Service or Device, or (ii) 8 days after either customer pickup or shipment by Spectrum of Equipment or Devices. Subscriber agrees to pay all charges associated with the Service, including, but not limited to, charges for installation, service calls, live-agent customer assistance, monthly subscription service, Equipment fees, measured and per-call charges, applicable federal, state, and local taxes and fees, fees to recoup any applicable municipal, state and federal government fees, permitted fees and cost recovery charges, including without limitation, public, educational, and governmental access, universal service, telecom relay services for the visually/hearing impaired, rights-of-way access, and programs supporting the 911/E911 system and any fees or payment obligations imposed by governmental or quasi-governmental bodies for the sale, installation, use, or provision of the Services. If partial payment is made of any bill and without waiving its right to collect the full balance owed, Spectrum will apply that payment to any outstanding charges in the amounts and proportions that it determines.
b. Monthly Subscription Services: Subject to restrictions under applicable law, if any, and without abrogating Section 5 - "Spectrum Refund Policy/30-Day Guarantee," Subscriber shall be responsible for the full monthly charge (without pro-ration) for those Services that are offered on a monthly subscription basis to which the Subscriber has subscribed, regardless of Subscriber's termination of such monthly Service prior to the conclusion of the current monthly subscription service period, and for usage charges for per program, Pay Per View, On Demand, per event or program Video Services ordered or per unit, minute, or data usage charges used by the Subscriber or other Services ordered where charges are based on actual usage or on orders placed during the previous month (collectively “Usage Charges”). To the extent Subscriber’s Usage Charges exceeds a threshold amount, as solely determined by Charter, then such Usage Charges may be charged to Subscriber and become due prior to the end of the monthly billing period. Unless Subscriber cancels Service on or before the last day of the current monthly subscription service period, Subscriber will be charged in full for Services the next monthly subscription service period. The monthly subscription service period can be found in Subscribers billing statement.
c. Disputed Charges/Late Payments: To the extent permitted under applicable law, if you disagree with a charge on your billing statement, you must contact Spectrum at 1-855-757-7328 no later than 60 days after the due date on your billing statement or you waive any such dispute. Failure to pay charges by the due date on the billing statement (including checks returned for insufficient funds) may result in suspension or disconnection of all Services, the removal of all Equipment and/or imposition of a late payment or service charge. If Subscriber has more than one account (business and/or residential) served by Spectrum, all Spectrum-provided Services at all locations may be subject to suspension or disconnection of Service in the event any one account remains delinquent and Spectrum may apply any funds received from Subscriber first to such delinquent account(s). Should Subscriber wish to resume Service after any suspension, Subscriber may be subject to reconnection fees. Should Subscriber wish to resume Service after termination of Service, Spectrum may charge fees for installation, service calls and/or activation and reserves the right to charge rates different from those in place at the time of disconnect. These fees are in addition to all past due charges and other fees. In the event collection activities are required, additional collection charges may be imposed.
d. No Credit Arrangements: Subscriber agrees and understands that by entering into the financial arrangement described herein, except to the limited extent Subscriber is purchasing a Device from Spectrum under an installment plan agreement, Spectrum is not extending Subscriber any credit and therefore Spectrum and Subscriber are not entering into a consumer credit or similar transaction.
3. Electronic Payment Terms. Unless you subscribe to Spectrum’s Mobile Service, you may elect to make a one-time payment to be applied against the balance of your monthly billing statement through an electronic funds transfer or a debit or credit card charge. You may also elect to pay the balance of your monthly billing statement on a recurring basis, including charges that are due immediately, by enrolling in the Auto Pay Service (collectively, the Electronic Payment Services). Spectrum Mobile subscribers must enroll in the Auto Pay service as a condition to receiving Mobile Services.
a. One Time Pay Authorization: By electing the One Time Pay service, you authorize Charter to charge/debit the bank account, debit or credit card that you designated (“Payment Method”) to make a one-time payment in the amount requested by you.
b. Auto Pay Authorization: By enrolling in the Auto Pay Service, Subscriber authorizes Spectrum to charge/debit electronically your Payment Method each month to pay the balance due on your account on the due date shown on your monthly bill statement, including charges that are due immediately. Spectrum will continue to charge/debit your Payment Method each month unless you cancel your authorization at least three (3) business days before the next scheduled payment date.
c. By using the Electronic Payment Services, you (i) represent that you are legally authorized user of the Payment Method and (ii) authorize Spectrum to store your Payment Method for future use. Subscriber is responsible for ensuring that the Payment Method information is current and accurate at all times. Subscriber must notify Spectrum of any change in the Payment Method at least three (3) business days before the scheduled due date shown on your monthly billing statement for the month in which you want to make the change. If the change is made after this time, the change will not take effect until the following billing cycle for your monthly billing statement. If Subscriber is enrolled in the Auto Pay Service and the initial payment fails, Subscriber may be charged an applicable payment failure fee in addition to Subscriber's past due balance. Subscriber will remain responsible for taking appropriate actions to ensure that your monthly billing statements are paid when due.
d. Spectrum will notify you prior to the payment due date. The amount shown as due on the monthly billing statement will constitute notice of any variance in amount paid in the previous month. The balance shown as due on your statement view will be deducted on or around the payment due date.
e. Subscriber has the right to revoke the recurring Auto Pay arrangement with Spectrum at any time, except for those services where Auto Pay is required. Any revocation of your authorization to pay amounts due through the Auto Pay service will not take effect until after receipt by Spectrum, and will result in the discontinuance of Auto Pay bill payment(s). After cancelation of Auto Pay bill payment, you will be responsible for taking appropriate action to pay all amounts due as set forth on your billing statement.
f. To get a copy a Subscriber's online Auto Pay confirmation for Subscriber's records, Subscriber must print or save such document to Subscriber's computer.
g. Subscriber must notify Spectrum of any change in account information or Payment Method. Subscriber can update account or Payment Method information on the My Spectrum application, or Spectrum.net/myaccount, or while speaking with one of our service representatives. It may take at least one billing cycle to update your new Payment Method. In the meantime, you will remain solely responsible for taking appropriate actions to ensure that payments are made when due. The Electronic Payment Services are provided for personal, non-commercial use only, and Subscriber is prohibited from using these services for any illegal activity or purpose, including payment fraud or identity theft.
h. You agree that Spectrum may provide you legal notices regarding the Electronic Payment Services, payments made, and other relevant information or records attributable to your payment transactions. Subscriber may not revoke consent to receive such electronic notice, records, or disclosures.
i. It is Subscriber's responsibility to protect the confidentiality of any user name or password used in connection with the Electronic Payment Services. Subscriber shall not provide access to the Electronic Payment Services to anyone other than household members or delegated authorized users. If Subscriber believes Subscriber's password or other means to access the Electronic Payment Services has been lost, stolen, or otherwise compromised, Subscriber must notify Spectrum immediately at 855-757-7328.
j. Spectrum shall have no liability or responsibility for its inability to process or receive payments Subscriber makes or attempts to make using the Electronic Payment Services or otherwise to perform its responsibilities under this Section 3 in the event circumstances beyond Spectrum's control prevent Spectrum from doing so or otherwise affect Spectrum's ability to do so.
k. Subscriber is responsible for all fees and costs related to maintaining a valid Payment Method including processing charges or annual costs.
l. Subscribers use of the Electronic Payment Services, whether through Spectrums websites, interactive voice response systems or through any other means, is for Subscribers exclusive personal use. No payment processor or any other third party may use the Electronic Payment Services to make payments on behalf of Subscriber without Spectrum’s written consent. Any attempt to do so will be considered an unauthorized interference with the intended operation of the Electronic Payment Services and may result in Spectrum’s failure to process or accept payments from you.
SPECTRUM'S SOLE AND ENTIRE LIABILITY AND SUBSCRIBER'S EXCLUSIVE REMEDY FOR THE PROCESSING OR DEDUCTION OF AN INCORRECT TRANSFER OF FUNDS HEREUNDER SHALL BE THE RETURN TO YOU OF THE IMPROPERLY TRANSFERRED FUNDS. FOR THE AVOIDANCE OF DOUBT, THIS SECTION 3 DOES NOT LIMIT ANY NON-WAIVABLE RIGHTS SUBSCRIBER MAY HAVE UNDER APPLICABLE LAW.
4. Payment by Check; Returned Items; Third Party Processing: If Subscriber makes payment by check, Subscriber authorizes Spectrum to collect such payment electronically. Subscriber may not amend or modify these Terms of Service with any restrictive endorsements (such as "paid in full"), releases, or other statements on or accompanying checks or other payments accepted by Spectrum; any of which notations shall have no legal effect. Whether paying by check, Electronic Payment Services, or any form of electronic funds transfer from a banking account, Subscriber hereby authorizes Spectrum to collect any declined amount electronically from the subject account. In addition, Subscriber's Service may be suspended and/or terminated.
Subscriber shall be responsible for any payment processing fees incurred when using a third party to process Subscriber's payments to Spectrum. Any NSF charge is in addition to any charges Subscriber's financial institution may assess. If initially rejected, Spectrum will make additional multiple attempts to execute such electronic payment for up to 30 days following the initial refusal. At the end of the 30-day period, if there has not been a successful payment then Subscriber's Electronic Payment Services will be terminated.
5. Spectrum Refund Policy/30-Day Guarantee. Subject to additional provisions that may be applicable to equipment returns, new Subscribers (those who have not been Spectrum customers for 90 days prior to subscription) qualify to have all levels of subscription Service refunded/credited if not fully satisfied with the Service. Current Subscribers adding a new level of subscription Service qualify to receive a refund/credit only on those newly added Services not received within the previous 90 days. Such refund is valid for customers who pay for their first month of new or upgraded monthly recurring subscription Services. Pay-Per-View and other non-recurring subscription purchases are not refundable. Subscriber is limited to one refund or credit per household for a maximum of 30 days of Service. Refunds/credits will be given only when request for cancellation of Service is received by Spectrum within 45 days of Billing Commencement 30 days from Billing Commencement, plus 15 day grace period. Any Equipment associated with the new subscription must be returned prior to release of refund/credit. Any state taxes, franchise fees and other fees or charges that may apply are the responsibility of the Subscriber and will not be refunded or credited. Other restrictions per any offer apply.
6. Service Bundle Discounts: Spectrum reserves the right to offer and Subscriber may elect to subscribe to a combination of Services for which a bundle discount applies ("Bundled Services"). In the event Subscriber terminates any Service component of such Bundled Services or Spectrum terminates such Service component based on Subscriber's failure to comply with the Terms of Service, Spectrum reserves the right to revert the pricing of the remaining Service(s) to the applicable undiscounted price for such Service(s).
7. Spectrum Property: Spectrum Property includes all new or reconditioned equipment that Spectrum provides or leases to you, including, but not limited to, cabling or wiring (except for Wiring, as defined below) and related electronic devices, modems, routers, and any other hardware and includes all software and programs contained within Spectrum Equipment, downloaded to Subscriber by Spectrum or downloaded by Subscriber as directed by Spectrum (“Equipment”). Except for Subscriber Property as set forth in Section 10 and "cable home wiring" as defined at 47 C.F.R.§76.804 (“Wiring”), all Equipment remains the exclusive property of Spectrum.
Equipment and Wiring installed at the Subscriber's address are intended to remain at Subscriber’s address and must not be used or relocated off such premises without Spectrum authorization. Subscriber must return all Equipment upon substitution of use or termination of Service. Failure to do so will result in a charge to be determined in accordance with Spectrum's then current schedule of charges for unreturned Equipment, which amount shall be due immediately (“Unreturned Equipment Fee”). Subscriber agrees to pay such fee whether the Equipment is lost (through theft or otherwise), damaged or destroyed. For the avoidance of doubt, Spectrum retains all title to all Equipment, at all times, including but not limited to after payment on an Unreturned Equipment Fee. Spectrum in no way relinquishes ownership of (including title to) Equipment by the payment of an Unreturned Equipment Fee even if an Unreturned Equipment Fee has been paid.
8. Disruption of Service: All Services are provided on an "AS IS" and "AS AVAILABLE" basis. In no event shall Spectrum be liable for any failure or interruption of Service, including without limitation those failures and interruptions resulting in part or entirely from circumstances beyond Spectrum's reasonable control. To the extent permitted under applicable law, Spectrum may give credit with respect to Subscriber's recurring monthly subscription fee for qualifying outages of Services.
9. Equipment: Subscriber expressly agrees to use the Equipment exclusively in connection with the Services. Spectrum may remove or change the Equipment at our discretion at any time the Services are active or following the termination of Services. Subscriber further agrees not to sell, lease, abandon, or give away the Equipment, or permit any other service provider to use the Equipment, including Equipment for which an Unreturned Equipment Fee has been paid. SUBSCRIBER UNDERSTANDS AND ACKNOWLEDGES THAT ANY ATTEMPT TO INSTALL OR USE THE EQUIPMENT OR SERVICES AT A LOCATION OTHER THAN SUBSCRIBER’S AUTHORIZED ADDRESS OF RECORD, UNLESS EXPRESSLY AUTHORIZED BY SPECTRUM, SERVICES MAY FAIL TO FUNCTION OR MAY FUNCTION IMPROPERLY. Spectrum will repair and/or replace damaged or defective Equipmentas long as such damage or defect was not caused by misuse or other improper operations or handling by Subscriber. A service charge may be imposed upon the dispatch of a technician if there is damage to Equipment due to negligent use or abuse or if no fault is discovered in Spectrum's system or Equipment.
ALL EQUIPMENT AND, WIRING ARE PROVIDED "AS IS", UNLESS OTHERWISE PROHIBITED OR RESTRICTED UNDER APPLICABLE LAW, AND SPECTRUM HEREBY SPECIFICALLY DISCLAIMS ANY AND ALL EXPRESS AND IMPLIED WARRANTIES, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTIBILITY, NON-INFRINGEMENT, TITLE, AND FITNESS FOR A SPECIFIC PURPOSE.
TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED UNDER APPLICABLE LAW, SPECTRUM SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES (INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION, LOST BUSINESS, REVENUE, PROFITS, OR GOODWILL) ARISING FROM THE USE, DEPLOYMENT, AND/OR FUNCTIONALITY OF ITS EQUIPMENT OR WIRING.
Spectrum's sole obligation and Subscriber's sole remedy with respect to any liability or damage caused by Subscriber's use or deployment of Equipment or Wiring shall be a refund of fees paid by Subscriber for such Equipment for the previous billing month/cycle.
10. Subscriber Property: Excluding the Equipment, Subscriber Property includes all software, hardware, equipment, devices or services used in connection with the Services. Subscriber Purchased Devices also include equipment or devices that Subscriber purchases under a sales agreement with Spectrum (“Subscriber Purchased Devices”). Subscriber Property also includes any device that Spectrum conveys to Spectrum, either for a fee or at no cost (“Conveyed Devices”). Spectrum has no responsibility for the operation, support, maintenance, or repair of any Subscriber Purchased Devices or Conveyed Devices, including Subscriber Purchased or Conveyed Devices to which Spectrum or any third party provides software or downloads. Subscriber acknowledges and agrees that it is solely responsible for all content accessed through Subscriber Purchased Devices and Conveyed Devices, and that Spectrum has no liability for content available through Subscriber Purchased Devices or Conveyed Devices that Subscriber considers offensive, indecent or objectionable. Subscriber further acknowledges and agrees that Subscriber’s access or use of the content and services available from third-party providers for use on or through Subscriber Purchased Devices or Conveyed Devices may be subject to their own terms of service and policies, including privacy and data gathering policies, which Subscriber may be required to separately accept and acknowledge and with respect to which Spectrum disclaims and shall have no obligation or responsibility. Subscriber is solely obligated to abide by such third-party terms and policies when and as they become applicable.
SUBSCRIBER PURCHASED DEVICES AND CONVEYED DEVICES ARE PROVIDED “AS IS”. SPECTRUM HEREBY DISCLAIMS ANY AND ALL CLAIMS ARISING FROM OR ASSOCIATED WITH THE FAILURE, OPERABILITY, PERFORMANCE, DEFECTS OR DAMAGES ARISING FROM SUBSCRIBER PURCHASED DEVICES OR CONVEYED DEVICES, ANY OF WHICH SHALL REMAIN MATTERS EXCLUSIVELY BETWEEN THE SUBSCRIBER AND THE MANUFACTURER OF SUCH DEVICES.
Spectrum is not responsible or liable for any loss or impairment of Spectrum's Service due in whole or in part to a malfunction, defect or otherwise caused by Subscriber Purchased Devices, Conveyed Devices, or Subscriber-provided equipment/software.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, Subscriber agrees to allow Spectrum and our agents the right (a) to install hardware in, (b) send software downloads to, and (c) install, access configure, maintain, inspect or upgrade Subscriber Purchased Devices or Conveyed Devices the extent necessary to provide the Services. Subscriber warrants that Subscriber is either the owner of such equipment or that Subscriber has the authority to give Spectrum access to it.
11. Taxes/Fees: Subscriber agrees to pay any local, state or federal taxes and fees imposed or levied on or with respect to the Services, the Equipment, Wiring, Subscriber Purchased Devices, Conveyed Devices, or installation or service charges incurred with respect to the same (including franchise fees). Without limitation, Spectrum shall be entitled to any sales fee or tax refund attributable to Subscriber Purchased Devices, for which Spectrum has paid applicable fees or taxes (or portion thereof) on behalf of Subscriber but with respect to which Subscriber has defaulted on its obligation to pay the full purchase price (whether under any sales installment plan or otherwise).
With respect to fees and taxes, including franchise fees, imposed by applicable government and regulatory authorities, Spectrum will review the amount it collects in such fees and taxes on a quarterly and annual basis. In the event Spectrum determines that it has collected any fees and/or taxes in excess of sums due to governmental and regulatory authorities, Spectrum will begin refunding such excess fees and taxes to current subscribers within 15 months of the end of each calendar year. Please be aware that, by law in some cases, Subscriber may be billed for taxes and fees that relate to time periods before Subscriber began receiving Services. However, by law, Spectrum will not bill Subscriber for these fees more than 4 years after the year they were incurred by Spectrum. Franchise fees resulting from an audit by the applicable franchising authority are incurred at the time those fees are assessed.
12. Care of Spectrum Property and Service: Subscriber agrees that neither Subscriber nor any other person (except Spectrum's authorized personnel) will: (a) open, tamper with, service, or make any alterations to the Equipment or Wiring; nor (b) remove or relocate any Equipment or Wiring from the service address of initial installation. Any alteration, tampering, removal, or the use of Equipment or Wiring which permits the receipt of Services without authorization or the receipt of Services to an unauthorized number of outlets, or to unauthorized locations, constitutes theft of Service and is prohibited. Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon receipt of a request by Subscriber, Spectrum shall relocate the Equipment for Subscriber within Subscriber's home at a time mutually agreed to by Spectrum and Subscriber. Subscriber may incur a charge for such relocation and should consult a current Spectrum schedule of rates and charges prior to requesting such relocation. If the Subscriber moves residences outside of Spectrum's service area, Subscriber shall notify Spectrum that these Terms of Service shall be terminated and the provisions of Section 16 shall apply to such termination.
13. Access to Subscriber Premises: Subscriber authorizes Spectrum and its employees, agents, contractors and representatives to access and otherwise enter the Subscriber's premises to install, inspect, maintain and/or repair the Equipment or Wiring and, upon the termination of Service, to remove the Equipment from the premises. Spectrum's failure to remove its Equipment shall not be deemed abandonment thereof. If the installation and maintenance of Service are requested at premises that, in Spectrum's sole discretion, are or may become hazardous or dangerous to our employees, the public or property, Spectrum may refuse to install and maintain such Service.
14. Acknowledgments and Consent Regarding Recording of Communications and Contact Rights:
a. Recording of Communications. Subscriber acknowledges and agrees that all communications between Subscriber and Spectrum may be recorded or monitored by Spectrum for quality assurance or other purposes subject to applicable law.
b. Consent to Phone Calls and other Means of Communication. Subscriber agrees that Spectrum (or persons acting on Spectrum’s behalf) may use an automated dialing system and/or prerecorded voice to call, text or e-mail any landline or wireless phone number or e-mail address that Subscriber provides to Spectrum for any non-promotional account, informational, or Service-related purpose such as, without limitation, collections and billing, appointment scheduling or confirmations, service alerts, security or network issues, or fraud violations. Subject to any limitations under applicable law, Subscriber may not opt-out of or revoke its consent to receive such communications, although you can manage your communication preferences by logging onto your account at www.spectrum.net.
c. Other Notices. Subscriber authorizes Spectrum to provide other notices using any method Spectrum determines appropriate, including by electronic means (for example, email or online posting).
d. Other Consents. Spectrum may ask you to provide other consents or authorizations, including by electronic means, email or your equipment (for instance, using your remote control to purchase a VOD movie, to request information regarding an advertiser's products or to "opt in" to a consumer study), and Spectrum is entitled to assume that any consent or authorization Spectrum receives through the Services or from your location has been authorized by you.
e. Email Address for Notice. Upon Spectrum's request, Subscriber will provide Spectrum with a current email address that Subscriber regularly checks so that Spectrum may provide notices and communications to Subscriber at that address. Spectrum's right to contact Subscriber as described in this Section survives the termination of these Terms of Service.
15. Secure Connection Requirements. Without abrogating or otherwise limiting Subscriber's separate obligations to secure Subscriber's account and equipment under these Terms of Service, Spectrum shall have the right to implement reasonable measures necessary to track, manage, and/or ensure the security and integrity of its network facilities, the video, phone, and/or Internet signals Spectrum transmits or receives, and the connection between any device or application used by Subscriber, members of Subscriber's household, Subscriber's guests, or any third parties and Spectrum's Equipment, system, or other network facilities (whether by physical, WiFi, wireless, software, or other means of connection), including without limitation authentication, access security, or other processes and means.
Without limiting any other rights Spectrum may have under the Terms of Service, Spectrum shall have the right to suspend, freeze, or otherwise cease Service or network access in the event and to the extent necessary to address any network integrity or security concern that may arise with regard to activity on or through, conditions arising from or caused by the use, availability of, or access enabled at or through Subscriber's Service, Service location, equipment, or account.
16. Assignment or Transfer: These Terms of Service and the Services and/or Equipment supplied by Spectrum are not assignable or otherwise transferable by Subscriber, without specific written authorization from Spectrum.
17. Termination and Expiration:
a. Termination by Subscriber: Unless otherwise terminated, these Terms of Service shall automatically renew on a month-to-month basis. Subscriber acknowledges that upon such renewal all pricing is subject to change in accordance with these Terms of Service and to the extent permitted under applicable law.

Prior to effecting such termination or any other change to the account we will verify and authenticate your identity, confirm that you are authorized to request such changes, and confirm your election of such changes.
b. Termination for Bankruptcy: Spectrum shall have the right to terminate these Terms of Service immediately in the event that Subscriber makes an assignment for the benefit of creditors, or a voluntary or involuntary petition is filed by or against Subscriber under any law having for its purpose the adjudication of Subscriber as a bankrupt or the reorganization of Subscriber.
c. Termination for Breach: In the event of any breach of these Terms of Service by Subscriber, the failure of Subscriber to abide by the rates, rules and regulations of Spectrum, the failure of Subscriber to provide and maintain accurate registration information, or any illegal activity by the Subscriber using any Service, these Terms of Service may, at Spectrum's option, be terminated and the Equipment removed. Failure of Spectrum to remove such Equipment shall not be deemed abandonment thereof. Subscriber shall pay reasonable collection and/or attorney's fees to Spectrum in the event that Spectrum shall, in its discretion, find it necessary to enforce collection or to preserve and protect its rights under these Terms of Service. Spectrum may terminate these Terms of Service or Spectrum may reject an application or block access to or use of any component of any Service for any reason including, but not limited to, if:
i. Subscriber violates these Terms of Service as solely determined by Spectrum;
ii. The information required in the application process is or becomes incorrect, absent or incomplete;
iii. Subscriber threatened or harassed any Spectrum employee, agent, contractor or representative (e.g., by abusive language, physical threats, etc.);

d. Obligations Upon Termination: Subscriber agrees that upon termination of these Terms of Service:
i. Subscriber will pay Spectrum in full for Services and Equipment through the end of the then-current monthly subscription service period.

e. Renewal after Cancellation or Termination: Subscriber acknowledges and agrees that in the event of renewal after cancellation or termination of a Service, Subscriber shall be subject to the pricing, warranties, and Terms of Service as are effective at the time of such renewal.
18. Spectrum's Right to Pursue Remedies and Subscriber's Indemnification Obligations. If Subscriber breaches these Terms of Service, Spectrum has the right to seek compensation from Subscriber for such breach through arbitration or, if Subscriber has opted out of these Terms of Service' arbitration provision or we are seeking an order requiring you to do or refrain from doing something, in court. Additionally, if any person or entity brings a claim against Spectrum that arises out of Subscriber's relationship with Spectrum, the Services provided to Subscriber, the Terms of Service, or Subscriber's breach thereof or failure to comply therewith, Subscriber will indemnify, defend (at Spectrum's exclusive election), and release Spectrum from and against liability and reimburse Spectrum for any losses that Spectrum may incur, including reasonable attorneys' fees and costs, resulting from such claim. Subscriber's responsibilities under this Section cover any dispute, whether arising under contract, tort (for example, a negligence or product liability claim), violation of law or regulation or any other legal theory.
19. Security Deposit: Any security deposit required of Subscriber for the Equipment or Spectrum's Service will be due and payable upon the first monthly billing statement. Such security deposits will be returned to Subscriber within sixty (60) days of termination of Spectrum's Service so long as payment has been made for all amounts due on Subscriber's account and Subscriber has returned the Equipment undamaged. If Spectrum is holding a deposit on Subscriber's account, Spectrum has the right to apply the deposited amount against any outstanding balance or shortfall in payments.
20. Advance Payment: Advance payment may be required under certain circumstances including without limitation when specific Service offer conditions require it, Subscribers are unable or unwilling to provide information to establish credit worthiness or have an unsatisfactory credit rating. The advance payment will be equal to the applicable installation charge and one month of recurring charges, excluding taxes, fees and surcharges. The advance payment will appear as a credit and be applied to the first monthly bill. Spectrum reserves the right to refuse Service if the Subscriber fails to fulfill standard credit requirements. After Service has been established, the Subscriber will be responsible for the payment of all applicable charges, including taxes, fees and surcharges to avoid discontinuance of Service.
21. Content and Services: All Services are subject to change in accordance with applicable law and these Terms of Service.
22. Rates: All rates are subject to change to the extent permitted under applicable law and these Terms of Service.
23. Late Fee: If Subscriber's account is past due, and payment has not been received by the due date on the billing statement, Subscriber may be charged an applicable late fee in addition to Subscriber's past due balance at Spectrum's then current rate. If Subscriber's account thereafter remains unpaid, Subscriber's Services may be suspended or disconnected. Subscriber can avoid incurring late fees by paying Subscriber's monthly bill by the due date on the billing statement. Any late fees assessed are not considered interest credit service charges, finance charges or penalties.
24. Disclaimer: Spectrum assumes no liability for any program, services, content or information distributed on or through the Services and Spectrum expressly disclaims any responsibility or liability for Subscriber's use thereof. Further, Spectrum shall not be responsible for any products, merchandise or prizes promoted or purchased through the use of the Services.
25. Right to Make Credit Inquiries: Subscriber authorizes Spectrum to make inquiries and to receive information about Subscriber's credit experiences, including Subscriber's credit report, from others, to enter this information in Subscriber's file, and to disclose this information concerning Subscriber to appropriate third parties for reasonable business purposes.
26. Spectrum's Reservation of Rights: Spectrum reserves the right to refuse, suspend or terminate Service to any person at any time for any reason not prohibited by law. When practical, Spectrum will provide notice that is reasonable under the circumstances before suspending or terminating Service to an existing Subscriber, and Spectrum will provide any prior notice of suspension or termination that is required by law.
27. Indemnification: Subscriber agrees to defend, indemnify, and hold Spectrum, including its officers, directors, employees, affiliates, subsidiaries, and authorized agents (individually and collectively, "Spectrum Indemnitees") harmless from and against any and all demands, claims, suits, judgments, expenses (including without limitation reasonable attorney or witness fees), loss, damages to, or destruction of personal, real, or intellectual property, bodily injury or death of any person, and other liabilities arising from:

28. Limitation of Liability.

b. One Year Limitation Period. EXCEPT AS OTHERWISE REQUIRED UNDER APPLICABLE LAW, ANY CLAIM YOU MAY HAVE AGAINST SPECTRUM MUST BE COMMENCED WITHIN ONE (1) YEAR AFTER THE CLAIM ARISES.

c. Damages. TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED UNDER APPLICABLE LAW, UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES SHALL SPECTRUM BE LIABLE TO CUSTOMER FOR INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, PUNITIVE, OR EXEMPLARY DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH THE SERVICE OR ANY ACTS OR OMISSIONS ASSOCIATED THEREWITH, INCLUDING ANY ACTS OR OMISSIONS BY THIRD PARTY SERVICE PROVIDERS OR ANY MANUFACTURER OF OR SUBSCRIBER PURCHASED DEVICES OR CONVEYED DEVICES, AGENTS OR SUBCONTRACTORS OF SPECTRUM, OR RELATING TO ANY SERVICES FURNISHED, WHETHER SUCH CLAIM IS BASED ON BREACH OF WARRANTY, CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER LEGAL THEORY, AND REGARDLESS OF THE CAUSES OF SUCH LOSS OR DAMAGES OR WHETHER ANY OTHER REMEDY PROVIDED HEREIN FAILS.

29. Privacy Policy. Spectrum will provide Subscriber with a copy of its Privacy Policy at the time Spectrum provides Service to Subscriber, and annually afterwards, or as otherwise required by law. Subscriber can view the most current version of our Privacy Policy by going to www.spectrum.com/privacy. Subscriber assumes sole responsibility for all privacy, security and other risks associated with providing personally identifiable information to third parties via the Service. To the extent that Spectrum is expressly required to do so by applicable law, Spectrum will provide notice to Subscriber of a breach of the security of certain personally identifiable information about Subscriber. Subscriber agrees that Spectrum may collect and disclose information concerning Subscriber and Subscriber's use of Service in the manner and for the purposes set forth herein and in Spectrum's Privacy Policy. In order to protect the privacy of Subscriber's account information, Spectrum may require that Subscriber use a security code or other method, in addition to the username and password, to confirm Subscriber's identity when requesting or otherwise accessing account information or making changes to Subscriber's Service through Spectrum's customer service representatives. Subscriber may also choose to designate an authorized user of Subscriber's account (an "Authorized User"), who will be able to access or modify Subscriber's account information and update and/or make Service changes. Once established, an Authorized User will be required to authenticate his/her identity in the same manner according to Spectrum's policies.
30. ARBITRATION. The following provisions are important with respect to the agreement between Subscriber and Spectrum regarding Spectrum's Services memorialized by these Terms of Service.
PLEASE READ THEM CAREFULLY TO ENSURE THAT SUBSCRIBER UNDERSTANDS EACH PROVISION. These Terms of Service require the use of arbitration to resolve disputes and otherwise limits the remedies available to Subscriber in the event of a dispute.
Spectrum and Subscriber agree to arbitrate disputes and claims arising out of or relating to these Terms of Service, the Services, the Equipment, or marketing of the Services Subscriber has received from Spectrum. Notwithstanding the foregoing, either party may bring an individual action on any matter or subject in small claims court.
THESE TERMS OF SERVICE MEMORIALIZE A TRANSACTION IN INTERSTATE COMMERCE. THE FEDERAL ARBITRATION ACT GOVERNS THE INTERPRETATION AND ENFORCEMENT OF THESE ARBITRATION PROVISIONS.
A party who intends to seek arbitration must first send to the other a written notice of intent to arbitrate, entitled "Notice of Intent to Arbitrate" ("Notice"). The Notice to Spectrum should be addressed to: VP and Associate General Counsel, Litigation, Charter Communications, 12405 Powerscourt Drive, St. Louis, MO 63131 ("Arbitration Notice Address"). The Notice must: (1) describe the nature and basis of the claim or dispute; and (ii) set forth the specific relief sought. If we do not reach an agreement to resolve the claim within 30 days after the Notice is received, Subscriber or Spectrum may commence an arbitration proceeding under these Terms of Service.
The arbitration shall be governed by the Consumer Arbitration Rules (collectively, "AAA Rules") of the American Arbitration Association ("AAA"), as modified by these Terms of Service, and the arbitration shall be administered by the AAA. The AAA Rules and fee information are available at "www.adr.org," by calling the AAA at 1-800-778-7879, or by writing to the Arbitration Notice Address.
The arbitrator shall have the exclusive authority to resolve any dispute relating to the interpretation, applicability, scope, or enforceability of these arbitration provisions and these Terms of Service.
SPECTRUM SHALL BEAR THE COST OF ANY ARBITRATION FILING FEES AND ARBITRATOR'S FEES REQUIRED BY THE AAA RULES OR OTHERWISE TO THE EXTENT REQUIRED UNDER APPLICABLE LAW TO RENDER THESE ARBITRATION PROVISIONS ENFORCEABLE.
If the arbitrator's award exceeds $75,000, either party may appeal such award to a three-arbitrator panel administered by the AAA and selected according to the AAA Rules, by filing a written notice of appeal within 30 days after the date of entry of the arbitration award. The appealing party must provide the other party with a copy of such appeal concurrently with its submission of the appeals notice to AAA. The three-arbitrator panel must issue its decision within 120 days of the date of the appealing party's notice of appeal. The decision of the three-arbitrator panel shall be final and binding, except for any appellate right which may exist under the Federal Arbitration Act.
The parties may agree that arbitration will be conducted solely on the basis of the documents submitted to the arbitrator, via a telephonic hearing, or by an in-person hearing as established by AAA rules.
SUBSCRIBER AGREES THAT, BY ENTERING INTO THIS AGREEMENT, SUBSCRIBER AND SPECTRUM ARE WAIVING THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JUDGE OR JURY.
Unless Spectrum and Subscriber agree otherwise in writing, all hearings conducted as part of the arbitration shall take place in the county (or parish) of Subscriber's billing address.
To the fullest extent permitted under applicable law, the arbitrator may award injunctive relief only in favor of the party seeking relief, only to the extent sought, and only to the extent necessary to provide the specific relief warranted by such individual's claim.
The parties agree that the arbitrator must give effect to the terms of these Terms of Service.
SUBSCRIBER AND SPECTRUM AGREE THAT CLAIMS MAY ONLY BE BROUGHT IN A PARTY’S INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY AND NOT ON BEHALF OF, OR AS PART OF, A CLASS ACTION OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING
Furthermore, unless both Subscriber and Spectrum agree otherwise in writing, the arbitrator may not consolidate proceedings or more than one person's claims and may not otherwise preside over any form of representative or class proceeding. If this specific paragraph is found to be unenforceable, then the entirety of these arbitration provisions shall be null and void and rendered of no further effect with respect to the specific claim at issue.
Right to Opt Out. If Subscriber does not wish to be bound by these arbitration provisions, Subscriber must notify Spectrum in writing within 30 days of (a) the date that these arbitration provisions become effective, if Subscriber is an existing customer, or (b) the date that Subscriber first subscribes to the Service(s). Subscriber may opt out by mail to the Arbitration Notice Address. Subscriber's written notification to Spectrum must include Subscriber's name, address, and Spectrum account number as well as a clear statement that Subscriber does not wish to resolve disputes with Spectrum under these arbitration provisions. Subscriber's decision to opt out of this arbitration provision will have no adverse effect on Subscriber's relationship with Spectrum or the delivery of Services to Subscriber by Spectrum. For the avoidance of doubt, Subscriber’s right to opt out from these arbitration provisions is prospective only and does not apply to previous periods. If Subscriber and Spectrum previously agreed to an arbitration agreement, an opt out from these arbitration provisions does not relieve either Subscriber or Spectrum from the obligation to arbitrate claims coming within the scope of that previous arbitration agreement.
Severability. If any clause within these arbitration provisions is found to be illegal or unenforceable, that specific clause will be severed from these arbitration provisions, and the remainder of the arbitration provisions will be given full force and effect.
NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING TO THE CONTRARY, IN THE EVENT SOME OR ALL OF THESE ARBITRATION PROVISIONS IS DETERMINED TO BE UNENFORCEABLE FOR ANY REASON, OR IF A CLAIM IS BROUGHT THAT IS EXCLUDED FROM THE SCOPE OF THESE ARBITRATION PROVISIONS (INCLUDING THOSE WITH RESPECT TO WHICH SUBSCRIBER HAS OPTED OUT OF THESE ARBITRATION PROVISIONS), BOTH PARTIES AGREE TO WAIVE, TO THE FULLEST PERMITTED UNDER APPLICABLE LAW, ANY TRIAL BY JURY AND ANY RIGHT TO PARTICIPATE IN CLASS ACTIONS.
For purposes of the foregoing sentence only, in the event such waiver or any part of it is found to be unenforceable, it shall be severed from these Terms of Service, rendered null and void and of no further effect without affecting the rest of the arbitration provisions set forth herein.
EXCLUSIONS. SUBSCRIBER AND SPECTRUM AGREE THAT THE FOLLOWING CLAIMS OR DISPUTES SHALL NOT BE SUBJECT TO ARBITRATION:
(1) ANY INDIVIDUAL ACTION BROUGHT BY SUBSCRIBER OR BY SPECTRUM ON ANY MATTER OR SUBJECT THAT IS WITHIN THE JURISDICTION OF A COURT THAT IS LIMITED TO ADJUDICATING SMALL CLAIMS.
(2) ANY DISPUTE OVER THE VALIDITY OF ANY PARTY'S INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS.
(3) ANY DISPUTE RELATED TO OR ARISING FROM ALLEGATIONS ASSOCIATED WITH UNAUTHORIZED USE OR RECEIPT OF SERVICE.
For New York Video Subscribers. Subscriber may elect to resolve a dispute through the New York Public Service Commission in accordance with 16 NYCRR §890.709(a) and 16 NYCRR §709(c).
The foregoing arbitration provisions shall survive the termination of these Terms of Service.
Subscriber may opt out of this Section, in which case the normal statute of limitations will apply. To opt out, Subscriber must notify Spectrum in writing by sending a letter to Spectrum addressed to VP and Associate General Counsel, Litigation, Charter Communications, 12405 Powerscourt Drive, St. Louis, MO 63131, within 30 days of (a) the date that this provision becomes effective, if Subscriber is an existing customer, or (b) the date that Subscriber first subscribes to the Service(s). Subscriber's written notice must include Subscriber's name, address, and Spectrum account number as well as a clear statement that Subscriber does not wish this Section to apply.
This Section shall survive the termination of these Terms of Service.
31. Force Majeure: Spectrum shall not be liable for any failure of performance or equipment of any kind (including Spectrum Equipment) due to causes beyond its control, including but not limited to: acts of God, fire, flood, or other catastrophes; loss of electrical power; any law, order, regulation, direction, action, or request of the United States Government, or of any other government, including state and local governments having or claiming jurisdiction over Spectrum, or of any department agency, commission, bureau, corporation, or other instrumentality of any one or more of these federal, state, or local governments, or of any civil or military authority; national emergencies; insurrection; riots, wars; unavailability of rights-of-way or materials; or strikes, lock-outs, work stoppages, or other labor difficulties.
32. Survival of Terms. In addition to the terms that are specifically noted in these Terms of Service as surviving termination of these Terms of Service, all representations, warranties, indemnifications, and limitations of liability shall survive these Terms of Service. Spectrum's right to contact Subscriber shall also survive these Terms of Service unless Subscriber opts out in the manner described in these Terms of Service. All other obligations of Subscriber and Spectrum under these Terms of Service also survive termination if they relate to the period before termination or, if by their terms, they would be expected to survive such termination.
