6.4. Confirmation of your chosen Subscription including full details of the main characteristics and features of Our Site available as part of that Subscription;
6.5. Fully itemised pricing, including, where appropriate, taxes and other additional charges; and
6.6. Details of the duration of your Subscription including the start date and the end and/or renewal date.

7. Payment
Payment for Subscriptions will be due at the time of purchase. Your chosen payment method will be billed immediately upon confirmation of your Subscription, and such payment will be taken by our third party payment provider. Please see our privacy policy for more details.
