3.0 Fees

3.1 Fees

End User agrees to pay the usage fees and any other amounts set forth in the Rate Schedule or as otherwise agreed to by End User through the StoryShare Services, including on subscription basis, as paid monthly or annually, as applicable. In the event the cost of End User’s usage of the Services exceeds the monthly commitment, End User shall pay StoryShare fees additional to the foregoing monthly commitment for the remainder of such month. Any overages incurred by End User shall be payable on the 1st day of the following month. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any fees paid on an annual basis shall be accounted as if paid on a monthly basis. In addition, if applicable, End User agrees to pay any applicable support fees in connection with End User’s order of any support services. Any payment terms presented to End User in the process of using or signing up for any StoryShare Services are deemed part of this Agreement.

3.2 Net of Taxes

Unless otherwise stated in the Rate Schedule, all applicable federal, state or local taxes and all use, sales, commercial, gross receipts, privilege, surcharges or other similar taxes, license fees and surcharges, whether charged to or against StoryShare, will be payable by End User. End User will not withhold any taxes from any amounts due to StoryShare.

3.3 Invoicing

StoryShare will invoice End User in accordance with the Rate Schedule or as otherwise agreed to by End User through the StoryShare Services. If End User is overdue on any payment and fails to cure such non-payment within 10 days of written notice of the non-payment, then StoryShare may assess, and End User will pay, a late fee of the lesser of 1% per month or the maximum amount allowable by law.

3.4 Payment Processor

StoryShare uses a third-party payment processor (the “Payment Processor”) to bill End User through a payment account linked to End User’s account on the StoryShare Services (End User’s “Billing Account”) for use of the StoryShare Services. The processing of payments will be subject to the terms, conditions and privacy policies of the Payment Processor in addition to this Agreement. StoryShare is not responsible for error by the Payment Processor. By choosing to use StoryShare Services, End User agrees to pay StoryShare, through the Payment Processor, all charges at the prices then in effect for any use of such StoryShare Services in accordance with the applicable payment terms (including but not limited to those set forth in the Rate Schedule), and End User authorizes StoryShare, through the Payment Processor, to charge End User’s chosen payment provider (End User’s “Payment Method”). End User agrees to make payment using that selected Payment Method. StoryShare reserves the right to correct any errors or mistakes that it makes even if it has already requested or received payment.

3.5 Payment Method

The terms of End User’s payment will be based on End User’s Payment Method and may be determined by agreements between End User and the financial institution, credit card issuer or other provider of End User’s chosen Payment Method. If StoryShare, through the Payment Processor, does not receive payment from End User, End User agrees to pay all amounts due on End User’s Billing Account upon demand.

3.6 Recurring Billing

The StoryShare Services are provided subject to recurring period charges and other fees and amounts as agreed to by End User. By choosing a recurring payment plan, End User acknowledges that such StoryShare Services have a recurring payment feature and accepts responsibility for all recurring charges prior to cancellation. STORYSHARE MAY SUBMIT PERIODIC CHARGES (E.G., MONTHLY) WITHOUT FURTHER AUTHORIZATION FROM END USER, UNTIL END USER PROVIDES PRIOR NOTICE (RECEIPT OF WHICH IS CONFIRMED BY STORYSHARE) THAT END USER HAS TERMINATED THIS AUTHORIZATION OR WISHES TO CHANGE END USER’S PAYMENT METHOD. SUCH NOTICE WILL NOT AFFECT CHARGES SUBMITTED BEFORE STORYSHARE REASONABLY COULD ACT. TO TERMINATE END USER’S AUTHORIZATION OR CHANGE END USER’S PAYMENT METHOD, GO TO https://StoryShare.co/signin.

3.7 Current Information Required

END USER MUST PROVIDE CURRENT, COMPLETE AND ACCURATE INFORMATION FOR END USER’S BILLING ACCOUNT. END USER MUST PROMPTLY UPDATE ALL INFORMATION TO KEEP END USER’S BILLING ACCOUNT CURRENT, COMPLETE AND ACCURATE (SUCH AS A CHANGE IN BILLING ADDRESS, CREDIT CARD NUMBER, OR CREDIT CARD EXPIRATION DATE), AND END USER MUST PROMPTLY NOTIFY STORYSHARE OR STORYSHARE’S PAYMENT PROCESSOR IF END USER’S PAYMENT METHOD IS CANCELED (E.G., FOR LOSS OR THEFT) OR IF END USER BECOMES AWARE OF A POTENTIAL BREACH OF SECURITY, SUCH AS THE UNAUTHORIZED DISCLOSURE OR USE OF END USER’S USER NAME OR PASSWORD. CHANGES TO SUCH INFORMATION CAN BE MADE AT https://StoryShare.co/signin. IF END USER FAILS TO PROVIDE ANY OF THE FOREGOING INFORMATION, END USER AGREES THAT STORYSHARE MAY CONTINUE CHARGING END USER FOR ANY USE OF APPLICABLE STORYSHARE SERVICES UNDER END USER’S BILLING ACCOUNT UNLESS END USER HAS TERMINATED END USER’S APPLICABLE STORYSHARE SERVICES AS SET FORTH ABOVE.

3.8 Change in Amount Authorized

If the amount to be charged to End User’s Billing Account varies from the amount End User pre-authorized (other than due to the imposition or change in the amount of state sales taxes), End User has the right to receive, and StoryShare shall provide, notice of the amount to be charged and the date of the charge before the scheduled date of the transaction. Any agreement End User has with End User’s payment provider will govern End User’s use of End User’s Payment Method. End User agrees that StoryShare may accumulate charges incurred and submit them as one or more aggregate charges during or at the end of each billing cycle.

3.9 Auto-Renewal for Subscription Services

Unless End User opts out of auto-renewal, which can be done by submitting a request to StoryShare at https://www.StoryShare.co/contact-us/any subscription-based StoryShare Services End User has signed up for will be automatically extended for successive renewal periods of the same duration as the subscription term originally selected, at the then-current non-promotional rate. To change or resign subscription-based StoryShare Services at any time, go to https:// StoryShare.co/signin. If End User terminates a subscription-based StoryShare Service, End User may use End User’s subscription until the end of End User’s then-current term; End User’s subscription will not be renewed after End User’s then-current term expires. However, End User won’t be eligible for a prorated refund of any portion of the subscription fee paid for the then-current subscription period.

3.10 Reaffirmation of Authorization

End User’s non-termination or continued use of a StoryShare Service subject to the usage fees set forth on the Rate Schedule or other fees or amounts as otherwise agreed to by End User through the StoryShare Services reaffirms that StoryShare is authorized to charge End User’s Payment Method for that Paid Service. StoryShare may submit those charges for payment, and End User will be responsible for such charges. This does not waive StoryShare’s right to seek payment directly from End User. End User’s charges may be payable in advance, in arrears, per usage, or as otherwise described when End User initially selected to use such StoryShare Services.

3.11 Free Trials and Other Promotions

Any free trial or other promotion that provides access to a StoryShare Services otherwise subject to usage fees set forth on the Rate Schedule or otherwise through the StoryShare Services must be used within the specified time of the trial. End User must stop using such StoryShare Services before the end of the trial period in order to avoid being charged for such StoryShare Services. If End User cancels prior to the end of the trial period and is inadvertently charged for such StoryShare Services, please contact StoryShare at https://www.StoryShare.co/contact-us/.

3.12 Disputes

End User will notify StoryShare in writing in the event End User disputes any portion of any fees paid or payable by End User under this Agreement. End User will provide such notice to StoryShare within 60 days of the applicable charge and the parties will work together to resolve the applicable dispute promptly. Upon expiration of the 60-day period described in this Section, End User will not be entitled to dispute any fees paid or payable by End User.

3.13 Suspension

End User acknowledges that, in the event End User’s usage exceeds the amounts prepaid by End User or any other failure to pay amounts due as described in this Section 3, StoryShare will be entitled suspend the StoryShare Services associated with End User’s account without prior notice to End User.
