4. Fees and Payment
4.1 Fees
Fees for the Services are set forth on the Website or as otherwise agreed between you and Cloudusk. Fees may be subject to change, and we will provide notice of any changes by posting the new fees on the Website or through other communication channels.
4.2 Payment
You agree to pay all fees and charges associated with your Account in a timely manner with a valid payment method. All payments are non-refundable except as otherwise explicitly stated in these Terms or required by law. We reserve the right to suspend or terminate access to the Services if any fees or charges are overdue.
We bill in arrears, meaning that you will receive an invoice during the first week of each month for the Services used in the preceding month.
Cloudusk operates on a "pay-as-you-go" basis, meaning you will only be billed for the resources you actually use, calculated in one-hour increments.
If you have unused prepaid account funds, Cloudusk will issue a refund upon request, provided the request is made within three months of the funds being added. The refund will exclude any amounts already deducted for services consumed
We utilize third-party payment processors ("Payment Processors") to manage billing via the payment account(s) linked to your Cloudusk account ("Billing Information"). Payment processing is subject to the terms, conditions, and policies of these Payment Processors, in addition to our Terms. We are not responsible for any acts or omissions by the Payment Processors. By using our Services, you agree to pay all applicable fees through the Payment Processors, or as otherwise agreed, based on our pricing and billing policies. You authorize Cloudusk and the Payment Processors to charge all fees (including taxes) to your designated payment method(s) ("Payment Method").
You are responsible for ensuring that your Account and Billing Information are accurate and up-to-date. You must promptly update any changes, such as billing address, credit card number, or expiration date. If your Payment Method is canceled or becomes inoperable, you must notify us or our Payment Processors immediately. Changes to billing information can be made through your account settings.
By accepting these Terms and using our Services, you agree to be billed on a recurring basis and to have payments automatically charged to your Payment Method(s) upon invoicing. If your Payment Method is subject to additional terms and conditions, as outlined in order forms, invoices, or otherwise, those terms apply in conjunction with these Terms. We may also bill an amount up to your current balance at any time to verify your account information. Cloudusk reserves the right to deactivate, terminate, or restrict access to your account or our Services at any time, including for nonpayment, late payment, or if your Payment Method fails upon invoicing.
4.3 Taxes
You are responsible for any taxes, duties, customs fees, or related penalties associated with your use of the Services, including but not limited to national, state, or local sales taxes, use taxes, VAT, and GST (collectively, "Taxes"). Unless otherwise specified, our prices do not include Taxes. If Cloudusk is required to collect or pay Taxes in connection with your use of the Services, these will be added to your invoice or collected at the point of purchase. In some jurisdictions, Cloudusk may determine the applicability of certain Taxes and collect them on your behalf. If you believe certain Taxes do not apply or that withholding is required, you must provide us with valid documentation, such as a tax certificate or tax identification number, as authorized by the relevant tax authorities. You are responsible for any penalties, fines, or other consequences arising from misrepresentation or non-compliance with tax obligations.
