21. Subscription Terms. Subscriber agrees to pay to us the fees stated or as specified from time to time for various fee-based Products and services available by or through WeatherBELL, and Subscribers are responsible for promptly paying for WeatherBELL Products and services. Failure to pay these fees in a timely manner will result in an interruption of fee-based Site Products and services and the functional inability to access the fee-based sections of the Site.
Charges will be calculated based upon the subscription package selected, and are applicable to the current version of the package selected. Upgrades related to Hardware changes or new releases may be subject to additional charges. "Lifetime" subscription packages relate only to the Products initially downloaded or accessed by the Subscriber, and do not extend to upgrades to the Products or different Hardware.
Failure of payment shall render due and payable all sums plus a late payment charge of one and one half percent per month. Fees may be prorated for portions of months. Use of the service beyond the free time or without proper authorization will result in charges to billing or credit card account. Fees and payment terms therefore are subject to change upon Notice by WeatherBELL to Subscriber.
Packages, once purchased, are nonrefundable, regardless of use or lack of use by Subscriber. Absolutely no credits or refunds are available for paid services, including, without limitation, mobile/wireless service packages. Once a charge has been processed to a Subscriber's credit card or wireless account, the Subscriber shall not request his or her credit card or mobile carrier company to reverse the charge or charge it back to us. If Subscriber has a legitimate basis to request a credit for a charge previously processed against his or her credit card account, he or she shall request a credit from us by written notice and resolve the issue directly with WeatherBELL. Any reversed charges which cause the credit card company to impose a charge back, refund, or credit cost against us shall be re-imposed by WeatherBELL upon Subscriber. Such costs may exceed the cost of the reversed item or charge back by many times.
22. Renewal Terms. Monthly subscription packages shall continue to renew monthly until proper termination notification is received from Subscriber.
23. LANGUAGE. TO THE EXTENT THIS AGREEMENT MAY BE TRANSLATED INTO A LANGUAGE OTHER THAN ENGLISH AND THERE IS A CONFLICT OF TERMS BETWEEN THE ENGLISH AND THE OTHER LANGUAGE, THE ENGLISH VERSION SHALL CONTROL.
