You further agree that in the event that DDNET believes, in its sole discretion, that you have breached any provision(s) of this Agreement, including but not limited to Sections 3 or 8, DDNET may, without any liability to you and in addition to any other remedies, terminate or suspend any and all accounts registered by you or your access to your Services and your Data without prior notice to you. You further agree that in the event that DDNET believes, in its sole discretion, that you have posted materials that breach any provision(s) of Section 8 of this Agreement, or any of its subparts, DDNET may, without any liability to you, and in addition to any other remedies, erase such materials from the DDNET Equipment without prior notice to you. If your account is suspended by DDNET for any reason whatsoever, your e-mail address may or may not be retained by DDNET in its sole discretion. After any such retention period, your e-mail address may be released and made available to another customer. If your account is suspended for non-payment of Fees, DDNET may but is not obligated to restore your Premium Services account for the remainder of the Term upon written notice to DDNET and payment in full of all Fees due and owing on the account, provided such notice is provided to DDNET within one year after the first day of the then-current Term (the "Notice Period"). Premium Services accounts not restored during the Notice Period will be terminated immediately upon the expiration of same.

2.5. Upon termination of this Agreement, you will no longer have access to your account.

You are responsible, prior to termination of Services, for transferring, saving, or otherwise securing any of your Data that you want to continue to have access to following such termination.

3. Fees

3.1. For Premium Services, all Fees must be paid in advance of the provision of Services for the entire Term. Fees must be paid in United States Dollars via the Payment Account, and are nonrefundable (except as expressly permitted otherwise by this Agreement), including any Fees paid in advance for the term during which you terminate. You agree that DDNET may automatically debit the Fee and any additional fees from the Payment Account unless specifically provided otherwise. You also agree that DDNET may automatically debit your Payment Account, without further authorization from you, for any renewal term, additional services, and any fees or expenses applicable to your Services, including but not limited to fees for your use of services in excess of those included within your Services. If payment in full is not received by DDNET from the provider of your Payment Account or its agents, you agree to pay all amounts due from you for your Services without demand by DDNET. Termination of your account shall not relieve you of any obligation to pay any accrued fees or charges.

3.2. In addition, certain DDNET Services may be subject to set-up, service, or other fees, and by registering for such DDNET Services you authorize DDNET to debit your Payment Account for any and all such fees.

3.3. Your credit or debit card issuer, directly or through third-party service providers, may provide DDNET with updated credit card numbers, expiration dates, or other information which may be used to renew services or make payments under this Agreement. Should DDNET choose, in its sole discretion, to participate in such auto-update programs, you agree that DDNET may share your Payment Account information with such third-party providers and may update Your Payment Account with information provided through such services. You authorize any and all charges to your Payment Account using such updated information, whether or not you or DDNET have prior notice of same. DDNET cannot guarantee that your Payment Account will be updated, and you acknowledge and agree that it is your responsibility to keep your payment information current and up-to-date at all times and that you shall be liable to DDNET for your failure to do so, including for any charges that DDNET may incur as a result of your failure to keep your payment information current. DDNET shall have no liability for declined payments or incomplete or out-of-date Payment Account information.

3.4. DDNET may offer promotional rates or special offers, the terms of which may or may not be more favorable than the terms and conditions for your Services. Any such promotions or modifications shall not affect your obligations under this Agreement. Promotional fees may be subject to additional terms and conditions which, to the extent they conflict with the terms of this Agreement, shall govern. Promotional fees and special offers may not be combined.

3.5. Certain special offers for Premium Services may include a free introductory period. Unless you terminate your account prior to the expiration of such introductory period you agree that you will be liable for and DDNET may automatically debit your Payment Account for the Fees for the Premium Services associated with that account. DDNET reserves the right at any time to withhold, modify, or discontinue, temporarily or permanently, such introductory or promotional offers, with or without notice.

3.6. Changes to your Services, including downgrades by you or termination of your Premium Services, may result in loss of your Data, features, or a reduction in the amount of available capacity for your Data provided by the DDNET Services. To the extent you receive a special reduced price as part of a bundled offer, the special price shall only apply as long as all of the bundled services remain; accordingly, canceling any one of the bundled services will result in a higher price for each of the remaining services unless it was arranged differently in the special offer. The amount charged to your Payment Account on the next billing cycle will be automatically updated to reflect any changes to the subscription, including upgrades or downgrades or the cancellation of bundled services.

3.7. You shall pay all costs of collection, including reasonable attorney's fees and costs, in the event any invoice requires collection efforts as determined in DDNET’s sole discretion. Except where prohibited by law, all accounts referred to a collection agency shall be subject to an additional fee, which must be paid in full before the account is reactivated.

3.8. International Customers bear the risk of currency fluctuations and any fees or taxes associated with the conversion of foreign currencies into United States Dollars. Certain DDNET Services will not be available to International Customers until DDNET is able to receive satisfactory confirmation from such customer’s Payment Account provider, in DDNET’s sole discretion, that the funds will be available for debit from the International Customer’s account. Orders from International Customers will not be accepted unless the country provided in the contact information matches that on file for the Payment Account.

3.9. You agree that DDNET may start the provision of services immediately, and that you will not be entitled to cancellation or a "cooling off" period except to the extent a waiver of those rights is prohibited by applicable law.

3.10. Even if your DDNET Services are free, you may still incur expenses for internet access or data transmission from third-party service providers not affiliated with DDNET.
