PAYMENT OF FEES AND ACCOUNT SUBSCRIPTION RENEWAL

The fees applicable for World Wide Data's services are available at www.wwd.net and as published within this document. World Wide Data reserves the right to change the Fees or applicable charges and to institute new charges at any time, upon thirty (30) days prior notice to you (which may be sent by email to the address you have most recently provided us).

Unless specifically agreed upon in writing between User and World Wide Data at the commencement of a subscription term, or unless User notifies World Wide Data via e-mail. phone, or contact form (with cancellation confirmation from World Wide Data) no later than fourteen days prior to the conclusion of the term, at the conclusion of any service term, whether monthly, yearly, or otherwise, World Wide Data will automatically renew the service for the same term and will charge the user's credit card, PayPal or other account on the first day of the renewal term.

OVERAGE FEES

All accounts are set up with the ability to exceed the plan subscription limit. This is done as a convenience for our customers. Customers who wish to have this feature disabled can do so by contacting our support department via the form on our contact page.

Overage fees occur when you exceed your service plan's storage limit. The fee is based on the highest monthly value stored over your plan size in your account. The fee is Two dollars and ninety five cents in US Dollars ($2.95) per Gigabyte or partial Gigabyte thereof.

For example, if your plan features a 10 Gigabyte limit and you have 11 Gigabytes stored in your account (1 Gigabyte over your limit), then your overage fee would be Two dollars and ninety five cents. These fees are billed in arrears (after you have used the service) as opposed to the fees for the monthly subscription plan which are billed in advance.

REFUND OF CHARGES

All World Wide Data services are prepaid for the period selected (monthly, yearly or otherwise) and are non-refundable. This includes all accounts that are renewable.

Users on our free 14-day trial may cancel or downgrade their accounts, free of charge, at any time up until 14 days after their account was created. (The day of creation constitutes the first day of the 14-day trial.) Users will receive a notification of billing after the completion of their trial period, on the day their credit card is charged. At this point, users are no longer in the trial period and may therefore not cancel free of charge. No refunds will be given after payment has been received. This includes all account types: i.e. consumer and business accounts.

When users cancel their account, they will not be issued refunds for their most recent (or any previous) billing. Special offers, services offered for sale, either in part or whole are not refundable. After payment has been made the services purchased will be deemed usable until the end of the subscription period.

If you have a question while canceling your account, you must give our email staff adequate time to respond to your message. Delays in our support system do not qualify as a reason to extend your trial period, or excuse canceling after 14 days. You can contact our billing department via the email form on our contact page

TAXES

State and local governments may assess taxes, surcharges, or fees, or all of these, on your use of our service. These charges may be a flat fee or a percentage of your World Wide Data charges and may change without notice. These charges are based on the rates applicable to the address you provided to us.

You are responsible for all applicable taxes, fees, or charges for your subscription, use, or payment for our service or your device. These amounts are in addition to the payment for your service or devices. We will bill these charges to your payment method according to the terms in this agreement.

If you are exempt from payment of any of these taxes, you must provide us with an original certificate that satisfies the legal requirements attesting to tax-exempt status. Tax exemption will only apply from the date we receive your certificate.
