The Service may contain data, information, text, videos, photographs, links, written comments, scripts, software, graphics, and interactive features provided, generated, or made accessible on or through the Service.

Acumen software systems may change the fees for any feature of the Service, including additional fees or charges, if Acumen software systems gives you advance notice of changes before they apply. Acumen software systems , at its sole discretion, may make promotional offers with different features and different pricing to any of Acumen software systems ’s customers. These promotional offers, unless made to you, will not apply to your offer or these Terms.
4.3. Subscription Service and Fees
a. The Service may include functionality for which Acumen software systems usually charges a fee (a “Paid Version”). There may be more than one type of Paid Version available to you (e.g., with different levels of access or usage allowances) (each, a “Subscription Plan”). The fees charged to access Paid Versions (including any applicable taxes) are the “Subscription Fees.” Subscription Fees are assessed, in advance, for each Subscription Period. “Subscription Period” means each month (or such other period as agreed by you and Acumen software systems ) during which you have an active subscription to a Paid Version (a “Subscription”). The first Subscription Period begins on the date you activate a Subscription and, unless and until your Subscription is cancelled, each subsequent Subscription Period begins at the conclusion of the previous Subscription Period (e.g., each month, if your Subscription Period is a month; each year if your Subscription Period is a year). b. If you activate a Subscription, you authorize Acumen software systems to charge you the applicable Subscription Fees for that Subscription for each Subscription Period when they become due, on a going-forward basis and until cancellation of either the Subscription or your account. We will bill the periodic Subscription Fee to the payment method you provide to us
during registration (or to a different payment method if you change your payment information). Your account will be charged the Subscription Fees for each Subscription Period automatically, on or about the first day of each Subscription Period, unless an alternate billing cycle is expressly agreed between you and Acumen software systems . Each Subscription will continue unless and until you cancel the Subscription or we terminate it.
4.5. Cancelling Your Services.
You may cancel your access to the Platform (whether via a Subscription or otherwise) by emailing us at support@acumensoftwaresystems.com, or completing the “Contact Us” form on www.acumensoftwaresystems.com or as may be specified within the Platform. Upon cancellation of a Subscription by you,
you will continue to have use of access to the software for the remainder of the paid term (subject to your ongoing compliance with these Terms).
4.7. Delinquent Accounts.
Acumen software systems may suspend or terminate access to the Service, including fee-based portions of the Service, for any account for which any amount is due but unpaid.

4.4. Free Trials.
If you signed up for a free trial for a Paid Version, you will not be charged the Subscription Fee for your use of the Paid Version during the free trial period. However, if you choose to purchase a Subscription to a Paid Version during your free trial period, your free trial will immediately end (regardless of whether there are days remaining in the free trial period), a Subscription Period will begin, and you will be charged the applicable Subscription Fee for the first Subscription Period (and for subsequent Subscription Periods as described in Section 4.3). At the end of any free trial for a Paid Version, if you have not purchased a Subscription, your access to the Platform may be downgraded to a version of the Platform with more limited functionality (which may include features allowing you to pay to access additional functionality) (a “Feature-Limited Version”). Unless otherwise expressly agreed by Acumen software systems , you will not be given more than one free trial period with respect to any Paid Version.
4.6. Plan Upgrades/Downgrades.

a. your physical or electronic signature;
b. identification of the material that has been removed or to which access has been disabled and the location at which the material appeared before it was removed or access to it was disabled;

The failure to require performance of any provision will not affect our right to require performance at any other time after that, nor will a waiver by us of any breach or default of these Terms, or any provision of these Terms, be a waiver of any subsequent breach or default or a waiver of the provision itself. Use of Section headers in these Terms is for convenience only and will not have any impact on the interpretation of any provision. Throughout these Terms the use of the word “including” means “including but not limited to.” If any part of these Terms is held to be invalid or unenforceable, the unenforceable part will be given effect to the greatest extent possible, and the remaining parts will remain in full force and effect.
