Customer will timely pay Watts all fees associated with the Customer’s subscription plan, the Customer’s Account or use of the Connected Offerings, including, but without limitation, by your Authorized Users. ALL PAYMENTS ARE NON-REFUNDABLE EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY PROVIDED IN THESE TERMS OF USE. Charges for pre-paid subscription plans will be billed to the Customer in advance. Charges for per-use purchases and standard subscription plan charges will be billed in arrears unless otherwise specified in the subscription plan.

When you purchase a subscription plan, you must provide accurate and complete information for a valid payment method, such as a credit card, that you are authorized to use. All payments will be processed by our third-party payment processor and subject to its terms of service and privacy policy.

MONTHLY OR YEARLY) BASIS (“AUTHORIZATION”) FOR: (i) THE APPLICABLE SUBSCRIPTION PLAN CHARGES; (ii) ANY AND ALL APPLICABLE TAXES; AND (iii) ANY OTHER CHARGES INCURRED IN CONNECTION WITH THE CUSTOMER’S USE OF THE SERVICES. The Authorization continues until termination of these Terms of Use.

If we do not receive payment when due, the Customer agrees to pay all amounts due upon demand. Any amount not paid when due will be subject to finance charges equal to 1.5% of the unpaid balance per month or the highest rate permitted by applicable law, whichever is less, determined and compounded daily from the date due until the date paid. The Customer will reimburse any costs or expenses (including, but not limited to, reasonable attorneys’ fees) incurred by us to collect any amount that is not paid when due. We may accept payment in any amount without prejudice to our right to recover the balance of the amount due or to pursue any other right or remedy. Amounts due to us may not be withheld or offset by the Customer for any reason against amounts due or asserted to be due from Watts.

Watts will provide billing and usage information in a format we choose, which may change from time to time. We reserve the right to correct any errors or mistakes that we identify even if we have already issued an invoice or received payment. The Customer agrees to notify us about any billing problems or discrepancies within thirty (30) days after they first appear on your invoice. If the Customer does not bring such problems/discrepancies to our attention within thirty (30) days, Customer agrees to waive its right to dispute such problems or discrepancies.

Billing cycle end dates may change from time to time. When a billing cycle covers less than or more than a full month, we may make reasonable adjustments and/or prorations. The Customer agrees that we may (at our option) accumulate charges incurred during a billing cycle and submit them as one or more aggregate charges during or at the end of a cycle, and that we may delay obtaining authorization or payment from the Customer’s payment card issuer until submission of the accumulated charge(s).

All payments required by these Terms of Use are stated exclusive of all taxes, duties, levies, fines or similar governmental assessments, including sales and use taxes, value-added taxes , goods and services taxes, excise, business, service, and similar transactional taxes imposed by any jurisdiction and the interest and penalties thereon, excluding taxes based on Watts’s net income (collectively, “Taxes”). The Customer shall be responsible for and bear Taxes associated with its purchase of, payment for, access to or use of the Connected Offerings. Taxes shall not be deducted from the payments to us, except as required by law, in which case the Customer shall increase the amount payable as necessary so that after making all required deductions and withholdings, we receive and retain (free from any Tax liability) an amount equal to the amount it would have received had no such deductions or withholdings been made. The Customer hereby confirms that Watts can rely on the name and address set forth in Customer’s Account as being the place of supply for sales tax purposes.

If you register for a free trial, promotional offer or other type of limited offer for use of a paid service of the Connected Offerings (“Free Trial”), you may be presented with additional terms and conditions when registering for a Free Trial, and any such additional terms and conditions are hereby incorporated into these Terms by reference and are legally binding. Watts reserves the right to reduce the term of a trial period or end it altogether without prior notice. The version of the Connected Offering that is available for a Free Trial may not include or allow access to all features or functions, and such Connected Offering made available during a Free Trial must be used before the end of the specified Free Trial period. ANY DATA THAT A CUSTOMER ENTERS INTO THE SERVICES, AND ANY CONFIGURATIONS MADE BY OR FOR A CUSTOMER, DURING THE FREE TRIAL WILL BE PERMANENTLY LOST AT THE END OF THE TRIAL PERIOD UNLESS THE CUSTOMER: (i) PURCHASES A SUBSCRIPTION PLAN TO THE CONNECTED OFFERING THAT IS EQUIVALENT TO OR GREATER THAN THOSE COVERED BY THE TRIAL; OR (ii) EXPORTS SUCH DATA BEFORE THE END OF THE TRIAL PERIOD.
