Term

The term of this agreement will commence on the date you accept these terms and conditions and end 1 year after that date (Initial Term). Unless you advise SiteSmart Technology in writing to cancel your subscription or you cancel your subscription through your account settings before the end of the Initial term, the term of this agreement will continue to apply on a year to year basis.

Subscription Fees and charges

Some parts of the Products and/or Services are available only with a paid Subscription. You will be billed in advance on a recurring and periodic basis annually. At the end of each period, Your Subscription will automatically renew under the exact same conditions unless You cancel it or SiteSmart Technology cancels it.

Subscription Payment Options

SiteSmart Technology prefers that the Subscription Fees and all other fees be paid by credit card or a debit card. It is your responsibility to ensure that there are current details for a valid, working credit card or debit card with sufficient funds to pay for all fees charged to that card.

Should automatic billing fail to occur for any reason, SiteSmart Technology will issue an electronic invoice indicating that you must proceed manually, within a certain deadline date, with the full payment corresponding to the billing period as indicated on the invoice.

Change in Subscription Fees

It is necessary to review the Subscription Fees and to increase them from time to time (Typically CPI). If SiteSmart Technology needs to increase their fees for any reason, SiteSmart Technology will provide you with notice of the change in the Subscription Fees.

SiteSmart Technology will provide You with reasonable prior notice of any change in Subscription fees to give You an opportunity to terminate Your Subscription before such change becomes effective.

Your continued use of the Service after the Subscription fee change comes into effect constitutes Your agreement to pay the modified Subscription fee amount.

Subscription Cancellations

You may cancel Your Subscription renewal either through Your Account settings page or by contacting SiteSmart Technology. You will not receive a refund for the fees You already paid for Your current Subscription period and You will be able to access the Products and/or Services until the end of Your current Subscription period.
