2. All applications are subject to approval by Canon U.S.A., Inc. (“Canon”), in its sole discretion. Canon reserves the right to confirm that the prospective member’s application information is accurate and may require additional proof upon request. Canon may reject any applicant in its sole discretion, with or without reason. Applicants are not eligible for membership if they have been previously expelled or terminated from any current or previous Canon program including the current, and any predecessor, CPS Program.
3. Applicant hereby represents and warrants that all information submitted with their application is true, accurate, and up to date (including any contact or payment information). Any misrepresentation may result in immediate termination of membership with no refund of the annual membership fee.
4. If accepted into the Program, Canon will provide the benefits specific to the Gold Membership level as detailed in the Benefits Section below. If Member desires to upgrade their Program Membership level, they must reapply for such upgraded level and pay the full amount of the upgraded membership fee. There will be no credit or refund for the current membership level.
5. Automatic Renewal. The initial term of enrollment in the Program is one (1) year from the date applicant accepts the Terms and Conditions and pays the membership fee (although some benefits may start 24 hours after the start of such initial term). After the initial term, your membership will automatically renew for another one (1) year term (the initial term and all renewal terms are collectively referred to herein as the “Term”) unless you cancel before the end of the then current Term. Before you are automatically billed on the renewal date indicated in your “Canon Professional Services Profile”, see https://shop.usa.canon.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/LogonForm?catalogId=10101&storeId=10601&langId=-1, we will notify you of your renewal and the applicable membership fee (if any) before the renewal occurs. You will have the opportunity to cancel your membership before your membership is renewed. Canon assumes no responsibility or liability for our failure to contact you if your CPS Account profile contact information changes or becomes out of date. Credit cards are the only valid form of payment for our auto-renewal services (debit card, check cards or “ATM” cards are not accepted). We will charge the credit card listed in our subscription manager at the time of auto-renewal. Your initial sign-up is an authorization for us to use the credit card in our subscription manager to pay for your initial membership subscription and any subsequent membership renewal. By enrolling in our auto-renewal service, you understand your membership will automatically renew and you authorize Canon to collect the then-applicable membership fee, using the credit card found in the subscription manager. You also understand that if you would like to cancel auto-renewal or do not want to auto renew, you must notify us prior to the expiration of the current Term by calling our CPS Membership team at 1-888-CPS-4540 or updating your CPS Account profile https://myprofile.americas.canon.com/us/signin
6. Applicant hereby represents and warrants that all information submitted with their application is true and accurate. Any misrepresentation may result in immediate termination of membership with no refund of the annual membership fee.
7. Cancellations and Refunds. To cancel your CPS Membership, you must visit your CPS Account profile and follow the instructions for cancellation.

All Memberships will auto-renew at the end of the Membership period unless you change your auto-renewal preferences. Visit your CPS Account Profile to learn more about your Membership, manage your Membership settings, or to cancel your CPS Membership. If you cancel your CPS Membership, you will still have access to your CPS Account.

2. For Out of Warranty Repairs, Service Turnaround Time period will begin from the date of Canon’s acceptance of Member’s payment for the approved repair.
