By using the Services or other paid services or products provided by us, you agree to the pricing and payment terms, as we may update them from time to time. We may add new services for additional fees and charges, or amend fees and charges for existing services, at any time in our sole discretion. Any change to our pricing or payment terms shall become effective in the billing cycle following notice of such change to you as provided in these Terms.

Further, you acknowledge and agree that the Services or other paid services or products provided by us may be made available on a recurring subscription basis (the “Subscription Services”). If you enrol in any Subscription Services, you agree to a recurring payment program, which will continue for the agreed-upon subscription period and automatically renew for additional subsequent periods unless and until you cancel the Subscription Services or we suspend, discontinue, or terminate them. We may offer a number of subscription plans for Subscription Services with different conditions and limitations. Any materially different terms from those described in these Terms will be disclosed at your signup or in other communications made available to you. We automatically charge the payment method associated with your online account on a recurring basis (depending on the subscription term you choose).

In order to receive Subscription Services, you must have internet access and provide us with a current, valid, accepted method of payment (as updated from time to time, “Payment Method”). You hereby authorize us to bill the subscription fee to your Payment Method, along with any applicable taxes or additional fees due during the billing period. You acknowledge that the amount billed during each billing period may vary from month to month for reasons that may include different amounts due to promotional offers, changing your subscription plan, and so on. You must cancel your subscription prior to the end of the then-current subscription period in order to avoid billing of the next subscription period’s subscription fees to your Payment Method.

You may cancel your Subscription Services at any time once the minimum storage term has been met. When you cancel the Subscription Services, you cancel only future charges associated with your subscription. You may notify us of your intent to cancel at any time, but the cancellation will become effective at the end of your current billing period. Cancellations are effective the following subscription period. You will continue to have the same access and benefits of your product for the remainder of the current subscription period. In the event that we suspend or terminates your account or these Terms for your breach of these Terms, you understand and agree that you shall receive no refund or exchange for any unused storage time, any license or subscription fees for any portion of the Website or Services, any content or data associated with your account, or for anything else, and that we may be unable to complete any outstanding orders or appointments until the suspension is lifted. You will be responsible for all charges (including any applicable taxes and other charges) incurred with respect to any orders processed prior to your cancellation of the Subscription Services.

7.2

Unless otherwise stated, prices listed include VAT. If the rate of VAT changes between the date of the Order and the date of delivery, we will adjust the VAT you pay, unless you have already paid for the Services in full before the change in the rate of VAT takes effect.

7.3

The Services will be provided only upon receipt of cleared funds into our designated bank account (if otherwise has not been agreed between the Customer and us). We shall invoice you in advance for any Services and Additional Services to be provided subject to your approval of the fee.

This interest shall accrue on a daily basis from the due date until the date of actual payment of the overdue amount, whether before or after judgment. You must pay us interest together with the overdue amount.
