You shall pay all fees or charges to your account in accordance with the fees, charges, and billing terms agreed with you and in effect at the time a fee or charge is due and payable. The initial charges may include set up consultancy services in addition to the agreed number of total User licenses requested. Subsequent charges will include the agreed number of total User licenses requested. Payments must be made annually in advance unless otherwise mutually agreed upon in the form of an Order. All payment amounts paid are non-refundable. You are responsible for paying for all User licenses ordered for the entire License Term, whether or not such User licenses are actively used. You must provide QPREDICT.COM approved purchase order information as a condition to signing up for the Service.

QPREDICT.COM will automatically issue an invoice to you each year on the subsequent anniversary or as otherwise mutually agreed upon. The renewal charge will be equal to the then-current number of total User licenses times the license fee in effect during the prior term, unless QPREDICT.COM has given you at least 30 days prior written notice of a fee increase, which shall be effective upon renewal and thereafter. Fees for other services will be charged on an as-quoted basis. QPREDICT.COM's fees are exclusive of all taxes, levies, or duties imposed by taxing authorities, and you shall be responsible for payment of all such taxes, levies, or duties, based solely on QPREDICT.COM's income.

Delinquent invoices (accounts in arrears) are subject to interest of 1.0% per month on any outstanding balance, or the maximum permitted by English Law, whichever is less, plus all expenses of collection. You will continue to be charged for User licenses during any period of suspension. If you or QPREDICT.COM initiates termination of this Agreement, you will be obligated to pay the balance due on your account computed in accordance with the Charges and Payment of Fees section above. You agree that QPREDICT.COM may bill you for such unpaid fees.
