You may only downgrade from a paid plan to a free plan at the end of the current Term (i.e. the Minimum Term, any automatic extension term or any Prepaid Term). If you downgrade from a paid plan to a free plan before the end of the current Term, you will remain responsible for any Fees which would have been due under the paid plan between the date of downgrade and the end of the current Term for such paid plan. Such Fees must be paid before the downgrade takes effect. If you have paid the Fees for the current Term in full, to the maximum extent permitted by law, an early downgrade will not entitle you to a refund of those Fees (whether in full or in part).

(c)       If we agree to invoice you by email, full payment must be received within thirty (30) days from the invoice date.

(d)      If you dispute any amount we say is payable, you must notify us within 10 days of the date of the relevant invoice and explain in detail why you dispute the amount. If any invoice is disputed in part only, you must pay any undisputed amount in full. You and we will endeavour to resolve any dispute as quickly as possible.

(e)      If you fail to pay, within 7 days of its due date for payment, any amount which is not properly disputed in accordance with clause 4(d), we may, at our absolute discretion and without prejudice to our other rights or remedies:

(i)        downgrade your paid plan to a free plan until those amounts are paid in full, provided we have given you five (5) or more days’ prior notice that we intend to exercise this discretion. You acknowledge and agree that a downgrade will result in a decrease in certain features and functionality in the System, and some of your data, becoming unavailable to you;

(ii)       suspend any services provided under the Agreement, including access to the System or any Support Services and your data;

(f)       If we downgrade you or suspend your access to the System, your obligations to pay Fees incurred up to the date of downgrade or suspension will continue. If you pay all amounts due within 14 days of the date of downgrade or suspension, we will upgrade you back to your paid plan, or reactivate your access to the System, but we may require you to pay an upgrade or reactivation fee first.

(g)      You must indemnify us for our reasonable costs of enforcing the Agreement, including collection costs and legal costs on a solicitor – own client basis.

(h)      All amounts exclude applicable goods and services tax, sales and similar taxes (unless expressly stated otherwise).

(i)        Where you are required to deduct or withhold any amount from the Fees or any other charges by way of withholding tax (or similar), the Fees and/or charges will be deemed to be grossed up by the amount of the required deduction, so that the net amount payable to us will be equal to the Fees and/or charges payable without deduction.

(j)       You agree that, during the Term:

(i)       we may vary the Fees payable under the Agreement at any time by providing written notice to you of such variation. Where we provide this notice, the new Fees will take effect at the end of the current Term (i.e. the Minimum Term, any automatic extension term or any Prepaid Term); and

(ii)       where the System is varied or changed, or the costs of providing the System or related services increases, (Fee Variation Event) and the cause of that Fee Variation Event relates to, or is connected with, an event or circumstance beyond our reasonable control (including increased third party costs) you agree:

  1.  that if the additional costs or expenses are ongoing costs or expenses, we may increase the Fees to reflect such additional costs and/or expenses that we suffer or incur as a result of the Fee Variation Event, with 30 days’ written notice to you. Where we provide this notice, the new Fees will take effect 30 days after the date of the notice; and
  2.  that if the additional costs or expenses are a one-off cost or expense, you will pay us the reasonable additional costs and/or expenses that we suffer or incur as result of the Fee Variation Event, as a debt due and immediately payable .
