Purchase

Upon completion of the Free Trial, access to the Site, Web Services, Data and Third Party Data will terminate until and unless the Customer selects and agrees to purchase a Subscription Plan and a Support Plan for continued use of the Site, Web Services, Data and Third Party Data. Upon selection and purchase, access to the Site, Web Services, Data and Third Party Data will be provided in accordance with the terms of the specific Subscription Plan selected by the Customer via the Site.

Term and Termination

Term: This Agreement will commence when You click “I accept” or “I agree” and shall continue for any Subscription or Product. Thereafter, this Agreement shall renew on the date of purchase (the “Start Date”) of the Subscription Plan, if any, that you select to purchase to use the Web Services, Data or Third Party Data. This Agreement shall continue from the Start Date through the initial term specified by the Subscription Plan (the “Initial Term”). At the end of the Initial Term, this Agreement will automatically renew on the day following the last day of the Initial Term (“First Renewal Date”) and will automatically renew thereafter on the first day of each renewal period (“Renewal Period”) as specified by the Subscription Plan, unless either party provides to the other written or electronic notice of termination in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Any Free Trial, Initial Term specified by the Start Date and the First Renewal Date of the Subscription Plan, and each subsequent renewal term specified by the First Renewal Date and the Renewal Period of the Subscription Plan are collectively the “Term”. 

Right to Terminate: Either party may terminate this Agreement at any time during the Free Trial. After the Start Date, either Party may terminate this Agreement for any reason prior to the beginning of each renewal term as indicated by the First Renewal Date and the Renewal Period of the Subscription Plan by delivering written or electronic notice of termination at least ten (10) days prior to the beginning of each renewal term. Notwithstanding the foregoing, either party may terminate this Agreement at any time in the event that the other party breaches any material term of this Agreement and fails to remedy such breach within ten (10) business days after receipt of a written notice of any such breach, or if such breach cannot be remedied within that period of time, fails to demonstrate to the satisfaction of the non-breaching party that it is taking steps reasonably necessary to remedy the breach. 

Inability to Provide Data and Third Party Data: If Provider ever loses the license, right or ability to provide any portion of the Data or Third Party Data, or such license or right is ever interrupted or otherwise impaired, then Provider agrees to notify Customer of such fact if permitted to do so and Customer may immediately terminate use of any portion of the Web Services and Provider will refund the prorated Subscription Fees (defined below) associated with the unused portion of the Web Services. 

Survival: The provisions of the Definitions Section and Sections that by their nature should reasonably survive, and any amendments to the provisions of the aforementioned will survive any termination or expiration of this Agreement.

Fees

Subscription Fees: Customer will pay to Provider fees in connection with the Subscription Plan and the Support Plan selected by Customer to use the Web Services, Data, and Third Party Data (“Subscription Fees”). Thereafter, Subscription Fees for Customer’s use of the Web Services, Data and Third Party Data shall be (i) as described and/or as selected by You via the Site in connection with purchase to use the Web Services, Data and Third Party Data or (ii) negotiated between You and Provider by creating an addendum to this Agreement. Unless otherwise negotiated between You and Provider in an addendum to this agreement, all Subscription Fees are due at the beginning of each subscription term as specified in the Subscription Plan and Provider will charge the method of payment You provide via the Site in a number of the Subscription Fees in connection with the Subscription Plan that You select. Subscription Fees are exclusive of taxes, duties, levies, tariffs, and other governmental charges (including, without limitation, VAT) (collectively, “Taxes”). Customer shall be responsible for payment of all Taxes and any related interest and/or penalties resulting from any payments made hereunder, other than any taxes based on Provider’s net income. 

Web Services Overage Fee Adjustment: Provider will notify Customer in writing should Customer exceed its average volume limit associated with a Web Service over a two (2) week period. Upon notification, Customer will have two (2) weeks to reduce its volume to comply with its current Web Service volume limitation. Should Customer continue to exceed its Web service volume limit, Provider will upgrade Customer’s current Web Service level to accommodate the higher volumes and adjust the Subscription Fee accordingly. Should Customer decline to accept the adjustment, Provider can terminate the agreement in accordance with the Terms & Termination. 

Prorated Refund of Subscription Fees: Upon termination of this Agreement, any unused prepaid Subscription Fees will be refunded to Customer no later than thirty (30) days from the date of termination. The refund amount will be the difference between the prepaid Subscription Fees and the pro-rated portion of the Subscription Fees due for use of the Web Services up to the date of termination calculated on a daily basis as the number of days in the current term prior to the date of termination divided by the total number of days in the current term.
