Billing We use a third-party payment processor (the “Payment Processor”) to bill you for the services you signed up for through the Site. The processing of payments will be subject to the terms, conditions and privacy policies of the Payment Processor in addition to this Agreement. We are not responsible for errors by the Payment Processor. By choosing by signing up for a Subscription, you agree to pay us, through the Payment Processor, all charges at the prices in the applicable payment terms and you authorize us, through the Payment Processor, to charge your chosen payment provider (your “Payment Method”). You agree to make payment using that selected Payment Method. You may change your Payment Method at anytime through your Account. We reserve the right to correct any errors or mistakes made the Payment Processor even if it has already requested or received payment from you. If we, through the Payment Processor, do not receive payment from you, you agree to pay all amounts owed by you to OctoCredit upon demand.

Recurring Billing for Subscription INSTRUCTIONS FOR OPTING OUT OF EACH SUBSCRIPTION TYPE, IF ANY, MAY BE FOUND ON OUR FAQ PAGE AND ARE DESCRIBED DURING THE CHECKOUT PROCESS. BY CHOOSING TO SIGN UP FOR A SUBSCRIPTION, YOU ACKNOWLEDGE THAT YOUR SUBSCRIPTION HAS A RECURRING PAYMENT FEATURE AND YOU ACCEPT RESPONSIBILITY FOR ALL RECURRING CHARGES INCURRED PRIOR TO THE EFFECTIVE DATE OF CANCELLATION OF YOUR SUBSCRIPTION. CANCELLATION OF YOUR SUBSCRIPTION WILL NOT AFFECT CHARGES INCURRED PRIOR TO THE EFFECTIVE DATE OF CANCELLATION DATE. The effective date of cancellation of your Subscription will be the first day of the month after you submit your cancellation request, regardless of the date of the current month in which you submit such request. The deadline to opt out of receiving your Subscription for any given month is typically on or around the fifth day of the month, and may in some cases be later than the date you submit your cancellation request, in which case you can opt out of the final month of your Subscription at the time you request cancellation. As an illustration, if you submit a cancellation request on January 1, your cancellation will be effective on February 1, and you will still receive a Subscription for January, unless you also request to opt out of your January Subscription at the time you cancel. However, if you submit a cancellation request on January 10, your cancellation will be effective on February 1 and you will still receive a Subscription for January, since the opt out date for January has passed. Each month, you will be charged unless you opt out of receiving the Subscription for the given month in accordance with the Terms of Service.

Current Information Required YOU MUST PROVIDE CURRENT, COMPLETE AND ACCURATE INFORMATION FOR YOUR ACCOUNT. YOU MUST PROMPTLY UPDATE ALL INFORMATION TO KEEP YOUR ACCOUNT CURRENT, COMPLETE AND ACCURATE (SUCH AS A CHANGE IN BILLING ADDRESS, CREDIT CARD NUMBER, OR CREDIT CARD EXPIRATION DATE), AND YOU MUST PROMPTLY NOTIFY US IF YOUR PAYMENT METHOD IS CANCELED (E.G., FOR LOSS OR THEFT) OR IF YOU BECOME AWARE OF A POTENTIAL BREACH OF SECURITY, SUCH AS THE UNAUTHORIZED DISCLOSURE OR USE OF YOUR USER NAME OR PASSWORD. CHANGES TO SUCH INFORMATION CAN BE MADE BY LOGGING INTO YOUR ACCOUNT SETTINGS. IF YOU ARE A SUBSCRIBER AND FAIL TO PROVIDE ANY OF THE FOREGOING INFORMATION, YOU AGREE THAT WE MAY CONTINUE CHARGING YOU FOR YOUR SUBSCRIPTION UNLESS AND UNTIL YOUR SUBSCRIPTION TERMINATES, PROVIDED THAT YOU WILL NOT BE CHARGED FOR ANY MONTH THAT YOU HAVE OPTED OUT IN ACCORDANCE WITH THESE TERMS OF SERVICE.

Change in Charges. OctoCredit reserves the right to change the Charges for our Subscriptions at any time, in our sole discretion, with at least thirty (30) days advance notice to you. Notice will be provided via email. Any agreement you have with your payment provider will govern your use of your Payment Method. You agree that we may accumulate charges incurred by you or under your Account and submit them as one or more aggregate charges during or at the end of each billing cycle.

Auto-Renewal for Subscription If you sign up for a Subscription, your Subscription will automatically renew each month for successive one month terms, until you cancel your Subscription.

Cancellation of Subscription YOU MAY CANCEL YOUR SUBSCRIPTION BY PROVIDING NOTICE TO OCTOCREDIT BY EMAILING US AT ADMIN@OCTOCREDIT.COM OR CALLING US AT 510-473-5102, STATING YOUR NAME AND THAT YOU ARE CANCELING YOUR SUBSCRIPTION, OR WORDS OF SIMILAR EFFECT. Your cancellation will be effective as of the first day of the month following the date you submitted your cancellation request. After your cancellation request, you will still be charged for any open security deposits you have not opted out of prior to the effective date of your cancellation. If you cancel your Subscription, OctoCredit will not automatically renew your Subscription thereafter.

Reaffirmation of Authorization  If you are a subscriber, your non-cancellation of your Subscription reaffirms that we are authorized to charge your Payment Method for the applicable Charge each month, unless you have opted out. We may submit those charges for payment and you will be responsible for such charges. This does not waive our right to seek payment directly from you. Your charges may be payable in advance, in arrears, per usage, or as otherwise described when you initially signed up for the Subscription.
