Based on your country of origin, our payment processor will add the respective VAT to your Subscription Fees. Subscription Fees are payable in full, in advance, in accordance with your Plan, and are non-refundable and non-creditable. This means that: (i) if you have a monthly Contract Period, you will owe us each month’s payment in advance, before you are allowed to use the Services for that month; (ii) if you have an annual Contract Period with up-front payment terms, you will owe us the entire year’s payment in advance, before you are allowed to use the Services for that year. The Subscription Fees are displayed in USD but you are allowed to pay in all currencies that our payment processor allows you to.
    2. If Levity has granted you access to a free Plan and you upgrade from the free Plan to any paid Plan, we will immediately bill you for the applicable Subscription Fees. There will be no refunds for partial months of service, upgrade/downgrade refunds, or refunds for months unused with an open account. At our own discretion, we may offer discounts for partial months of service if you upgrade/downgrade to another paid Plan.
    3. Interest on any late payments will accrue at the rate of 1.5% per month, or the highest rate permitted by law, whichever is lower, from the date the amount is due until the date the amount is paid in full. If you are late in paying us, you also agree that, in addition to our rights to suspend your access to the Services, terminate your account(s), downgrade you to a free Plan, and/or pursue any other rights or remedies available to us at law or in equity, you are responsible to reimburse us for any costs that we incur while attempting to collect such late payments.

Customer acknowledges and agrees to the usage of a MoR.

If a third party asserts any claims against Levity out of or in connection with Customer’s violation of third-party rights (each a “Claim”), Customer agrees to defend, indemnify and hold harmless Levity from and against losses, damages, expenses and costs, including without limitation reasonable court costs and legal fees.
    2. Levity shall, in this case (i) notify Customer in due time of any Claim; (ii) grant Customer, at Customer’s cost, full authority and control of the settlement and defense of the Claim (to the extent possible under applicable law and possible without impairing the effective defense of the Claim; to the extent no full authority and control can be granted, Levity agrees to involve Customer by fully informing Customer of any communication from opposing party, their counsel, and any court, arbitrator, mediator or other similar entity, and by submitting to Customer for prior approval any statement, brief, submission or filing, written or otherwise, to any of the aforementioned); and (iii) reasonably cooperate with Customer in the defense of such Claim, including providing adequate assistance and information.

Essential contractual obligations are contractual obligations which must be fulfilled to duly execute the contract; accordingly, the Customer generally relies and may rely on the compliance with these obligations (Kardinalspflicht). In case of a breach of essential contractual obligations, Levity shall only be liable for foreseeable damages typical of the contract, not to exceed, however, the fees payable by Customer to Levity in a given contract year, unless the damages of the Customer are based on loss of life, bodily harm, injury or illness, or on intent or gross negligence.
    2. Except as set out in Section 11.1 above, any and all claims for damages irrespective of the legal grounds shall be excluded. For the avoidance of doubt, the general liability without fault of Levity pursuant to section 536a of the German Civil Code (Bürgerliches Gesetzbuch - BGB) for defects existing upon contract conclusion shall be excluded. The restrictions regarding the exclusion and limitation of liability set forth in section 11.1 shall also apply to the benefit of the statutory representatives and vicarious agents of Levity, in case the Customer asserts any claims directly against them. the provisions of this section do not lead to a change of the burden of proof to the disadvantage of the Customer.
