For each subscription to the InfraNav Service, a relevant monthly or yearly License price (“Service Price”) will be indicated prior to purchase on the Website.

The Customer will receive a receipt at the conclusion of the transaction.

If the Customer has elected a monthly subscription to the InfraNav Service and the Customer has paid via the Website, Stripe will store the Customer’s payment details, and HIP Consult will charge the Customer the Service Price and any relevant Sales Tax on a monthly basis every 30 days on each predetermined calendar date after the initial charge, until the Customer indicates that he/ she wishes to cancel the subscription. The Customer will receive an email approximately a week prior to renewal date informing him/ her of the automatic renewal and allowing him/ her to exercise his/ her right to cancellation via email. The Customer hereby provides consent to be billed on a recurring basis. The Customer will receive a receipt at the conclusion of each monthly transaction. Customer will not be entitled to a refund if Customer does not exercise his/ her right to cancellation via email prior to the renewal date.

If the Customer has elected a monthly subscription to the InfraNav Service and the Customer has paid via bank transfer or check or has elected a yearly subscription to the InfraNav Service, the Customer will receive an email a week prior to the expiry of the subscription for monthly subscriptions and 60 days prior to the expiry of the subscription for yearly subscriptions with an invoice and instructions for renewal; the Customer will then be able to pay via bank transfer/ check to renew the subscription. The Customer will then need to follow the relevant process set out in this Clause for this type of payment.

The Customer will receive a receipt at the conclusion of each yearly or monthly transaction.

In addition, the Customer acknowledges and agrees that in case he/she purchases the InfraNav Service and/ or Custom Map(s) with a Credit Card and then subsequently requests his/her Credit Card issuer to reverse the payment for such the InfraNav Service and/ or Custom Map(s), then HIP Consult shall be entitled to block the Customer’s access to the InfraNav Service and/ or Custom Map(s), by revoking the license for the InfraNav Service and/ or Custom Map(s) and/ or suspending online subscription access to the InfraNav Service until such time as the Customer reimburses HIP Consult the amount of the fees HIP Consult is charged by the Credit Card issuer for such a chargeback.

If any provision of these T&Cs is found to be unlawful, void or for any reason unenforceable, then that provision shall be deemed severable from these T&Cs and shall not affect the validity and enforceability of any remaining provisions.

The relationship between the Customer and HIP Consult is that of independent contractors. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall be construed as creating any agency, partnership, joint venture or other form of joint enterprise, employment or fiduciary relationship between the parties, and neither party shall have authority to contract for or bind the other party in any manner whatsoever.

Neither party shall issue or release any announcement, statement, press release or other publicity or marketing materials relating to this Agreement or otherwise use the other party's trademarks, service marks, trade names, logos, domain names or other indicia of source, affiliation or sponsorship, in each case, without the prior written consent of the other party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, provided, however, that HIP Consult may, without Customer's consent, include Customer's name and/or other indicia in its lists of HIP Consult’s current or former customers of HIP Consult in promotional and marketing materials.

This Agreement is for the sole benefit of the parties hereto and their respective permitted successors and permitted assigns and nothing herein, express or implied, is intended to or shall confer upon any other Person any legal or equitable right, benefit or remedy of any nature whatsoever under or by reason of this Agreement.

These T&Cs and the relationship between the Customer and HIP Consult shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the District of Columbia without regard to its conflict of law provisions.

The Customer agrees that to the extent any statute or Law to the contrary may be modified hereby, any claim or cause of action arising out of or related to the InfraNav Service and/or Custom Map(s) or these T&Cs must be filed within one (1) year after such claim or cause of action arose or it will be forever barred.

The Customer irrevocably and unconditionally waives any right he/she may have to a trial by jury in respect of any legal action arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby.

The Customer acknowledges and agrees that a breach or threatened breach by him/her of any of his/her obligations under Clause 19 (Confidentiality), Clause 3.4 (Authorization Limitations and Restrictions), and Clause 8.4 (Corrective Action and Notice), would cause HIP Consult irreparable harm for which monetary damages would not be an adequate remedy and agrees that, in the event of such breach or threatened breach, HIP Consult will be entitled to equitable relief, including a restraining order, an injunction, specific performance and any other relief that may be available from any court, without any requirement to post a bond or other security, or to prove actual damages or that monetary damages are not an adequate remedy. Such remedies are not exclusive and are in addition to all other remedies that may be available at Law, in equity or otherwise.

No waiver by HIP Consult of any breach or default by the Customer under these T&Cs shall be deemed to be a waiver of any preceding or subsequent breach or default. No provision of these T&Cs provides any person or entity not a party to these T&Cs with any remedy, claim, liability, reimbursement, or cause of action, or creates any other third party beneficiary rights
