Accordingly, where applicable, nerDigital will attempt to automatically renew the applicable Services for a renewal period equal in time to the original subscription period for such Service, and automatically charge You the applicable fees using the payment method You have on file with nerDigital.

nerDigital reserves the right to establish the price for every Service We offer. We may change the price of any Service at any time, in Our sole discretion.

For customers on the Basic, Team, or Agency account plans, payments for each Service purchased will be added to your next monthly invoice. You will be billed for the full amount of the subscription upon your next billing date.

For customers on the Enterprise account plan, payments for each Service purchased will be applied to your next charge and will be charged in full upon next invoice date (usually at the end of each month). Charges for Apps purchased will always appear on the next invoice and be charged for a full term (annual or monthly), even if the service is canceled before the next invoice date.

If You provide written notification of Your request for cancellation of the subscription Services within the first thirty (30) days of Your original purchase of a subscription-based Service, the fees that nerDigital has received from You will be refunded. No refunds will be provided for subscription-based Services after the thirty (30) day guarantee period.

If You do elect to purchase a subscription to the Service, the free-trial period shall be considered concurrent with the thirty (30) day guarantee period and no further thirty (30) day guarantee period will be offered.

In case of cancellation, if the client cancels their account from their subscription dashboard, the service (such as websites, CRMs, SaaS accounts) will be suspended immediately and will be deleted from our infrastructure 30 days after the cancelation date. You can contact us before canceling your account for further details.
