9. PURCHASE TERMS AND REFUNDS.
9.1. Third-Party Service Provider. The Company uses Stripe, Inc. and its affiliates as its third-party service provider for payment services (e.g., card acceptance, merchant settlement, and related services) (the "Third-Party Service Provider"). If you make a purchase on the Service, you will be required to provide your payment details and any additional information required to complete your order directly to our Third-Party Service Provider. You agree to be bound by Stripe's Privacy Policy and its Terms of Service, and hereby consent and authorise the Company and Stripe to share any information and payment instructions you provide with one or more Third-Party Service Provider(s) to the minimum extent required to complete your transactions. Please note that online payment transactions may be subject to validation checks by our Third-Party Service Provider and your card issuer, and we are not responsible if your card issuer declines to authorise payment for any reason. For your protection, our Third-Party Service Provider uses various fraud-prevention protocols and industry-standard verification systems to reduce fraud and you authorise it to verify and authenticate your payment information. Your card issuer may charge you an online handling fee or processing fee; we are not responsible for this. In some jurisdictions, our Third-Party Service Provider may use third parties under strict confidentiality and data-protection requirements for the purposes of payment-processing services.
9.2. Payment. You shall pay all fees or charges ("Fees") to your Account in accordance with the fees, charges and billing terms in effect at the time a Fee is due and payable. By providing Company and/or our Third-Party Service Provider with your payment information, you agree that Company and/or our Third-Party Service Provider is authorised to immediately invoice your Account for all Fees due and payable to Company hereunder and that no additional notice or consent is required. You shall immediately notify Company of any change in your payment information to maintain its completeness and accuracy. Company reserves the right at any time to change its prices and billing methods in its sole discretion. You agree to have sufficient funds or credit available upon placement of any order to ensure that the purchase price is collectible by us. Your failure to provide accurate payment information to Company and/or our Third-Party Service Provider or our inability to collect payment constitutes your material breach of this Agreement. Except as set forth in this Agreement or as required by law (including the Australian Consumer Law), all Fees for the Service are non-refundable. Company may suspend or terminate your access to the Service immediately upon non-payment. Your obligation to pay fees will survive any suspension or termination.
9.3. Refunds. Except as set forth herein or as required by the Australian Consumer Law, amounts due are non-refundable. You may request a refund within seven (7) days of your initial purchase, or as permitted by the law in your jurisdiction, provided no Credits (defined below) have been used. Refunds apply only to initial purchases, not renewals, and are subject to a service fee not exceeding six percent (6%) of the initial fee where permitted by law. Nothing in this clause limits any rights you may have under the Australian Consumer Law.
9.4. Credits. In certain instances, you may receive or purchase credits ("Credits") to access and use specific features of the Services. Purchased Credits constitute prepaid amounts for products and services available through the Services and may only be used within the specified timeframe. Unused Credits are forfeited upon Account cancellation or cessation of Services. Credits have no cash value, are non-transferable, non-reloadable, and non-redeemable for cash except as required by law. Company may change Credit terms at any time, and the value of Services obtainable with Credits is subject to change at Company's sole discretion.

No inactivity or other fees apply to Promotional Credits.
9.6. Taxes. The Fees do not include any GST or other taxes that may be due in connection with the Service provided under this Agreement. If Company is legally obligated to collect GST or other taxes, it will be collected in addition to the Fees. If any Services or payments are subject to GST or other taxes in any jurisdiction and you have not remitted such tax, you are responsible for the payment of that tax and any related penalties or interest, and you shall indemnify Company for any liability or expense it incurs. Upon request, you will provide Company with evidence of having paid all applicable taxes.
10. SUBSCRIPTIONS
10.1. Subscriptions. If you purchase access to certain features and functionality of the Services on a time-limited basis (a "Subscription"), the Fee for such Subscription plus any applicable GST and fees ("Service Subscription Fee") will be billed at the start of the Subscription ("Subscription Service Commencement Date") and at regular intervals in accordance with your elections at the time of purchase. Company reserves the right to change the timing of our billing. Company also reserves the right to change the Subscription pricing at any time in accordance with Section 18.6 (Agreement Updates). If changes to the Subscription price occur that impact your Subscription, Company will use commercially reasonable efforts to notify you, such as by sending an email to the address associated with your Account. If you do not agree with such changes, you may cancel your Subscription as set forth below.
10.2. Automatic Renewal. If you elect to purchase a Subscription, your Subscription will continue and automatically renew at Company's then-current price for such Subscription until terminated in accordance with this Agreement. The renewal frequency (e.g., weekly, monthly, annually) will be designated at the time you sign up and may be modified by you via your Account settings. By subscribing, you authorise Company to charge the payment method designated in your Account now and again at the beginning of each subsequent Subscription period. Upon renewal, if Company does not receive payment, (i) you shall pay all amounts due on your account upon demand and/or (ii) Company may terminate or suspend your Subscription and continue to attempt to charge your designated payment method until payment is received. Once payment is received, your new Subscription commitment period will begin as of that date.
10.3. Cancelling Subscriptions. If you purchased your Subscription directly from Company, you may cancel by logging into and visiting the "Payment Setting" page of your Account, or by contacting support@specialx.ai. Subscription modification/cancellation requests made via email must be sent from the subscriber's email address on the account. Company will not accept modification/cancellation requests from third parties.
10.4. Effect of Cancellation. If you cancel, you may continue to use your Subscription until the end of the then-current term; it will not renew thereafter. No prorated refunds of any portion of the Service Subscription Fee will be provided for the current term, except as required by law.
10.5. Upgrades and Downgrades. Upgrading your Subscription mid-term takes effect immediately; any incremental fees will be charged accordingly. Future Renewal Terms will reflect such upgrades. Downgrades take effect on the first day of the next Renewal Term and may cause loss of content, features or capacity, for which Company is not liable.
11. INDEMNIFICATION.
To the extent permitted by law, you shall indemnify and hold Company, its parents, subsidiaries, affiliates, officers, employees, agents, partners, suppliers and licensors (each, a "Company Party" and collectively, the "Company Parties") harmless from any losses, costs, liabilities and expenses (including reasonable legal fees) relating to or arising out of any and all of the following: (i) Your Content and/or Outputs; (ii) your misuse of the Service; (iii) your violation of this Agreement; (iv) your violation of any rights of another party, including any user; (v) your violation of any export control, sanctions, or data protection law; (vi) any dispute between you and a third party relating to your use of the Service; or (vii) your violation of any applicable laws, rules or regulations. Company reserves the right, at its own cost, to assume the exclusive defence and control of any matter otherwise subject to indemnification by you, in which event you will fully cooperate with Company in asserting any available defences. This provision does not require you to indemnify any of the Company Parties for any unconscionable commercial practice by such party or for such party's fraud, deception, false promise, misrepresentation or concealment, or suppression or omission of any material fact in connection with the Service provided hereunder. You agree that the provisions in this section will survive any termination of your Account, this Agreement and/or your access to the Service.

16. INTERNATIONAL USERS.
The Service may be accessed from countries around the world and may contain references to services and Content that are not available in your country. These references do not imply that Company intends to announce such service or Content in your country. The Service is controlled and offered by Company from its facilities in Australia. Company makes no representations that the Service is appropriate or available for use in other locations. Those who access or use the Service from other countries do so at their own volition and are responsible for compliance with local law.
17. DISPUTE RESOLUTION.
Please read this section (the "Dispute Resolution Agreement") carefully. It is part of your contract with Company and affects your rights.
17.1. Applicability. Subject to the terms of this Dispute Resolution Agreement, you and Company agree that any dispute, claim or disagreement arising out of or relating in any way to your access to or use of the Service, any Output, any communications you receive, any products sold or distributed through the Service, or this Agreement (including prior versions), will be resolved in accordance with this Section 17 ("Dispute").
17.2. Informal Dispute Resolution. There might be instances when a Dispute arises between you and Company. If that occurs, Company is committed to working with you to reach a reasonable resolution. You and Company agree that good-faith informal efforts to resolve Disputes can result in a prompt, low-cost and mutually beneficial outcome ("Informal Dispute Resolution"). You and Company therefore agree that before either party commences any formal legal proceedings against the other, we will personally meet and confer telephonically or via videoconference, in a good-faith effort to resolve informally any Dispute covered by this Dispute Resolution Agreement ("Informal Dispute Resolution Conference"). If you are represented by counsel, your counsel may participate in the conference, but you will also participate in the conference.
The party initiating a Dispute must give notice to the other party in writing of its intent to initiate an Informal Dispute Resolution Conference ("Notice"), which shall occur within forty-five (45) days after the other party receives such Notice, unless an extension is mutually agreed upon by the parties. Notice to Company that you intend to initiate an Informal Dispute Resolution Conference should be sent by email to support@specialx.ai or regular mail to our offices located at Attn: Legal, U508 / 2 Dune Walk, Woolooware, NSW 2230, Australia. The Notice must include: (1) your name, telephone number, mailing address, e-mail address associated with your Account (if you have one); (2) the name, telephone number, mailing address and e-mail address of your counsel, if any; and (3) a description of your Dispute.
The Informal Dispute Resolution Conference shall be individualised such that a separate conference must be held each time either party initiates a Dispute, even if the same law firm or group of law firms represents multiple users in similar cases, unless all parties agree; multiple individuals initiating a Dispute cannot participate in the same Informal Dispute Resolution Conference unless all parties agree. In the time between a party receiving the Notice and the Informal Dispute Resolution Conference, nothing in this Dispute Resolution Agreement shall prohibit the parties from engaging in informal communications to resolve the initiating party's Dispute. Engaging in the Informal Dispute Resolution Conference is a condition precedent and requirement that must be fulfilled before commencing formal legal proceedings. The statute of limitations and any filing-fee deadlines shall be tolled while the parties engage in the Informal Dispute Resolution Conference process required by this section.
17.3. Mediation. If the parties are unable to resolve the Dispute through the Informal Dispute Resolution process within sixty (60) days, either party may refer the Dispute to mediation administered by the Australian Disputes Centre (ADC) in accordance with the ADC Guidelines for Commercial Mediation. The mediation will be conducted in Sydney, New South Wales, unless the parties agree otherwise. The costs of the mediator will be shared equally between the parties unless the mediator determines otherwise. All communications and discussions during mediation shall be confidential and without prejudice.
17.4. Court Proceedings. If the parties are unable to resolve the Dispute through mediation within thirty (30) days of the commencement of the mediation (or such longer period as the parties may agree), either party may commence court proceedings in accordance with Section 18.7 (Exclusive Venue).
17.5. Urgent Relief. Nothing in this Section 17 prevents either party from seeking urgent interlocutory or injunctive relief from a court of competent jurisdiction where such relief is necessary to protect that party's rights.
17.6. Limitation Period. Any Dispute must be initiated within the applicable limitation period under Australian law, or it is forever barred.
17.7. Costs. The parties shall bear their own legal costs in connection with any Dispute, unless a court or mediator orders otherwise.
