Payments may be made annually, monthly, or quarterly, consistent with the Initial Term, at your election. 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 iAbida.com with valid credit card or approved purchase order information as a condition to signing up for the Service.

8. Excess Data Storage Fees
The maximum disk storage space provided to you at no additional charge is 10 MB per 5-User license.

iAbida.com charges and collects in advance for use of the Service. iAbida.com will automatically renew and bill your credit card or issue an invoice to you (a) every month for monthly licenses, (b) every quarter for quarterly licenses, or (c) each year on the subsequent anniversary for annual licenses. The renewal charge will be equal to the then-current number of total User licenses times the then-current license fee in effect at the time of renewal. Fees for other services will be charged on an as-quoted basis. iAbida.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, excluding only United States (federal or state) taxes based solely on iAbida.com's income.

10. Non-Payment and Suspension
In addition to any other rights granted to iAbida.com herein, iAbida.com reserves the right to suspend or terminate this Agreement and your access to the Service if your account becomes delinquent (falls into arrears). Delinquent invoices (accounts in arrears) are subject to interest of 1.5% per month on any outstanding balance, or the maximum permitted by 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 iAbida.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.

11. Termination upon Expiration/Reduction in Number of Licenses
This Agreement commences on the Effective Date. For our standard iAbida Special Needs Education licenses, the Initial Term will be one month, three months, or one year as determined by your election during the online subscription process, commencing on the date you agree to pay for the Service by completing the online subscription form or otherwise. Upon the expiration of the Initial Term, this Agreement will automatically renew for successive renewal terms equal in duration to the Initial Term at iAbida.com's then current fees. Either party may terminate this Agreement or reduce the number of licenses, effective only upon the expiration of the then current License Term, by notifying the other party in writing at least five (5) business days prior to the date of the invoice for the following term. In the case of free trials, notifications provided through the Service indicating the remaining number of days in the free trial shall constitute notice of termination.
