The Subscription Fees for the Services will be as set out in the applicable pricing schedule on the Website, which GFI reserves the sole right to change from time to time.

a) Subscription Options

GFI uses a trusted third party partner to provide its online sales of the Services through the Website subject to their terms and conditions. You agree to pay all Subscription Fees for your use of the Services in accordance with the Subscription you were offered and agreed to upon purchasing the Subscription. GFI reserves the right to charge value-added taxes ("VAT"), sales or other taxes on the Services as it deems appropriate.

You are responsible for regularly reviewing such Subscription Fee information. Continued use of the Services, or non-termination of your Account, after changes are either posted or emailed to you constitutes your acceptance of the Subscription Fees as modified. If you have a question regarding any Subscription Fees that have been applied to your Account, you must contact sales@gfi.com within thirty (30) days of the Subscription Fee date. Failure to do so will waive your ability to dispute such Subscription Fees. Failure to use your Account will not be deemed a basis for refusing to pay any Subscription Fees.

b) Monthly Subscriptions If you purchase a monthly Subscription you agree that any applicable Subscription Fees for sending faxes and/or receiving faxes shall be paid monthly automatically in advance via a charge to your credit card. Monthly subscriptions shall automatically renew at the end of the Subscription period and GFI will charge the then applicable Subscription Fees to the credit card associated with your Account. Any Services purchased as part of your monthly Subscription do not carry forward to the next Subscription period and are valid only from the commencement date of the Subscription Fee to the renewal date of the Subscription Fee. Any Services purchased as part of your monthly Subscription that are not used cannot be transferred to any other GFI FaxMaker Online Number under the same Account or refunded. Additional charges apply if you exceed the number of inbound or outbound fax pages included in your purchased monthly Subscription. If you exceed the allocated usage of the Services within a Subscription period, you will incur additional per fax page rates as per the GFI FaxMaker pricing schedule posted on the Website at that time. All Subscription Fees for excess usage charges will be invoiced at the end of the month and automatically charged to your credit or debit card without further authorization from you. Any excess usage is calculated on a month by month basis (not averaged over each month). It is your responsibility to monitor your own usage and/or check on the status of your Account online at the Website. You agree that for monthly Subscription Fees, GFI shall submit charges for your monthly Subscription Fees each month, without further authorization from or notice to you, until you provide prior notice (in accordance with GFI's verification procedures, as may be established by GFI from time to time in its sole discretion) that you have terminated this authorization or wish to change your designated credit card(s). Such notice will not affect charges submitted before GFI reasonably could act on your notice. If you add GFI Faxmaker Online Numbers to an existing Account, your first payment for such additional GFI Faxmaker Online Numbers may be prorated to coincide with the annual/monthly anniversary of your first GFI Faxmaker Online Number. You agree that GFI may (at its option) accumulate Subscription Fees incurred during your monthly billing cycle and submit them as one or more aggregate charges during or at the end of each cycle, and that GFI may delay obtaining authorization from your card issuer until submission of the accumulated charge(s). This means that accumulated Subscription Fee charges may appear on the statement you receive from your card issuer. You may cancel your Subscription at any time by logging onto the designated customer area of the Website or sending an email to GFI. All Subscription Fees consisting of activation fees, monthly Subscription Fees and/or excess usage charges are COMPLETELY NON-REFUNDABLE whether cancelled by you or terminated for cause. As of the effective date of cancellation or termination, you shall no longer be able to access or use the Account or any Services.

c) Annual Subscriptions Annual Subscription Fees are paid in full annually in advance. If you utilize your allocated annual allowance of Services before the expiration of the Subscription period you must purchase an additional Subscription to enable further use of the Services. Annual Subscriptions do not automatically renew and expire at the end of the 12 month period. GFI may send you a reminder when you are approaching the expiration of your Subscription. If at the expiration of your annual Subscription you have a remaining balance of Services in credit, GFI will allow a 30 day grace period for the Services to be utilized. After the 30 day grace period has expired you will no longer have access to the Services. Annual Subscription Fees are payable through a trusted third party partner for GFI. You can terminate your annual Subscription by logging onto the designated customer area on the Website or contacting GFI. If you cancel your Subscription before the end of your Subscription period you may incur a termination fee and GFI may, in its sole discretion, grant a partial refund for the remainder of your credit.
