You are responsible for reading and understanding the Third Party Terms before accessing or using any Third Party Application.

Fees and Payments

The Services are available under subscription plans of various durations. Payments for subscription plans can be made by Transfer or by Credit or Debit Card. Your subscription will not be automatically renewed at the end of each subscription period. If subscription is not renewed and nor applicable subscription fees paid, your paid subscription will be automatically downgraded to a free plan. You may also choose to downgrade personally your paid subscription plan to a free plan, which will take effect after the currently active paid plan expires.

From time to time, we may change the price of any Service or charge for use of Services that are currently available free of charge. Any increase in charges will not apply until the expiry of your then current billing cycle. You will not be charged for using any Service unless you have opted for a paid subscription plan.

Fakturea will provide you with an invoice including local taxes for each paid subscription period.

Teams and Administrators

Having a user account, you may create a Team of members with specific access rights, including administative rights, to your organization. The administrators will have the right to configure the Services based on your requirements and manage other Team members in your organization. If your organization is created and configured on your behalf by a third party, it is likely that such third party has assumed administrator role for your organization. Make sure that you enter into a suitable agreement with such third party specifying such party’s roles and restrictions as an administrator of your organization.

You are responsible for (i) appointing competent individuals as administrators for managing your organization account, and (ii) ensuring that all activities that occur in connection with your organization account comply with this Agreement. You understand that Fakturea is not responsible for account administration and internal management of the Services for you.

You are responsible for taking necessary steps for ensuring that your organization does not lose control of the administrator accounts. You may specify a process to be followed for recovering control in the event of such loss of control of the administrator accounts by sending an email to info@fakturea.com, provided that the process is acceptable to Fakturea. In the absence of any specified administrator account recovery process, Fakturea may provide control of an administrator account to an individual providing proof satisfactory to Fakturea demonstrating authorization to act on behalf of the organization. You agree not to hold Fakturea liable for the consequences of any action taken by Fakturea in good faith in this regard.

Hosting Location and Delay in the Service

The Fakturea software is hosted on a server within a European Union area. Although Fakturea takes measures in using the most realiable hosting providers for the Services, some delays, independent of Fakturea, may occur due to hosting provider malfunction. You understand and agree that Fakturea Services may be subject to such delays and other limitations associated and Fakturea will not be liable for such delays and limitations. We may change the hosting provider and therefore migrate your account to a different hosting facility.

There also may occur a delay in the Service during a maintenance period, which will be publically announced to users with at least 24h advance, while trying to minimise the maintenance period and service disruption time.

Refund for Cancellation

In the event you choose to cancel your paid subscription Service with option of inmediate effect, you understand and agree that Invoice will refund only that part of the fee for the unused period in which the service was to be provided and was not used.

Inactive User Accounts Policy

We reserve the right to terminate unpaid user accounts that are inactive for a continuous period of 120 days. In the event of such termination, all data associated with such user account will be deleted. We will provide you prior notice of such termination and option to back-up your data. In case of organizations with more than one member, if a single member user is considered inactive and other member users are active, only the inactive user personal account is deleted and organization data is left available to other member users.
