One month free trial membership for promotional purposes
Offer conditions: We may, at our sole discretion, occasionally offer a free one-month trial period for a paid marketing plan (“Trial Period”).

After the trial period ends, you will be billed monthly at the then current rate for the paid marketing plan you selected and your current contact level until you cancel or switch to another paid monthly marketing plan or a free marketing plan. We will inform you about the expiration of your trial period before the trial period ends.
