7. Charges and billing
This section applies in all situations in which you pay
Sell@Market for a service. The online ordering terms are as stated by
Plimus, Inc. (located in
California), who is our third party online ordering service. Plimus
uses the highest level of encryption throughout the entire order and
setup processes, from all order pages, through the storage of customer
information, and credit card processing which is done by Wells Fargo,
one of the largest and most trusted financial institutions.
- Payment. When you sign up for the service,
you will be redirected to our third party online ordering service,
which is powered by Plimus, Inc. You provide a payment method and
confirm that you are authorized to use the payment method. You
authorize us to charge you for the service using your payment method
and for any paid feature of the service for which you choose to sign
up or use while this contract is in force. If the amount to be charged
to your payment method is greater than the amount you pre-authorized,
we will tell you the amount at least 10 days before we charge you.
- Charges. If your service is provided on an
annual basis, we will charge you for the service in advance. If your
service is provided for an indefinite period or automatically renewed,
we will charge monthly for the services you will receive in the next
month. We may charge you at one time for more than one of your prior
billing periods. If we told you that the service will be provided
indefinitely or automatically renewed, we may automatically renew your
service and charge you for any renewal term.
- Updates to your billing account. You must
keep all information in your billing account accurate and current,
including your billing address and any expiration date for your
payment method. You can access and make changes to your billing
account at
https://secure.plimus.com/jsp/account_login.jsp. You may change
your payment method at any time. If you tell us to stop using your
payment method and do not provide an alternative payment method, we
will cancel your service. Your notice to us will not
affect charges we submit to your billing account before we reasonably
could act on your request.
- Trial period offers. You may receive a
limited time of free service or some other trial period offer. Unless
we tell you otherwise, if you are participating in any trial period
offer, you must cancel the service by the end of the trial period to
avoid incurring charges or having your service downgraded to a service
for there is no subscription fee. If you do not cancel your service
and we have told you that the service will automatically be converted
into a paid subscription at the end of the trial period, then you
authorize us to charge your payment method for the service. If
we downgrade your service to one for which there is no subscription
fee, some of your data may not be available to you and Sell@Market
may delete that data permanently from our servers. You are responsible
for taking the necessary steps to back up your data and ensuring that
you maintain your primary means of business.
- Prices and price increases.
- The price for the service excludes taxes, phone and Internet
access charges, mobile text messaging, wireless service and other
data transmissions, unless stated otherwise. These taxes and charges
are your responsibility. Currency exchange settlements are based on
your agreement with your payment method provider.
- If there is a specific time length and price for your
service offer, then that price will remain in force for that time.
When the offer period ends, we will charge you a new price for that
service.
- We may change the price of the service from time to time,
but we will give you at least 30 days notice before a new price
takes effect. If you do not agree to the new price, then you must
cancel and stop using the service before the new price takes effect.
If your service is on a period basis (for example, monthly or
annually), then the new price will start on the date that we
indicate.
- Service conversion. You may be able to
switch your service to a different service. If you do, you authorize
us to charge your payment method for any new service charges. If you
switch to a service for which we do not charge a subscription fee or
for which we charge a lower fee, we will refund the unused portion of
the service charge for the subscription fee service you previously
used or the difference in the amount of the service fees. You may not
credit any refunds to other services.
- Refunds. All charges are non-refundable
unless expressly stated otherwise, or otherwise provided by law. The
costs of any returns will be at your expense, unless otherwise
provided by law.
- Payments to you. To receive a payment or
refund due to you, you must promptly provide us with all information
we need to make the payment (for example, bank account information for
receiving the payment). You must provide us with the information we
request before your right to receive payment accrues. You are
responsible for the accuracy of the information you provide and any
taxes you may incur as a result of receiving a payment. If
you receive a payment that was not due to you, we may reverse or seek
return of the payment, and you agree to cooperate with us.
