Fees and Payment

Signing up for a Chali account is free for Members who register as individuals. The free use of various offerings within the Chali Service, including but not limited to expense and income reporting, scan and some analytic functionalities, are governed by additional terms set forth on the Website (such additional terms being incorporated herein by reference). In the event you choose to upgrade to paid services or to provide payment information to Chali after being prompted to do so, you agree to the pricing, payment and billing policies as set forth (a) herein, (b) on the Website and/or (c) if applicable, in a separately executed or accepted purchase order on the Apple App store. All fees paid for the Chali Service are non-refundable and non-transferable except as expressly provided in these Terms of Service. All fees and applicable taxes, if any, are payable through the Apple App Store in Euros. You are solely responsible for the payment of, and shall pay when due, all applicable sales and use taxes and similar fees now in force, enacted or imposed in the future on the delivery of Chali Service and/or any related transactions (except for taxes assessed on Chali’s net income or personal property). If for any reason Chali pays any such taxes, duties or excises, you will reimburse Chali for such taxes, duties or excises, other than taxes on Chali’s net income.

Chali Service packages have a default term of 12 months. If your selected Chali Service package requires a recurring subscription fee, your Chali Service package will automatically renew, unless you change your billing settings to month-to-month, we terminate it, or you notify us by email (contact@chaliconseil.com) of your decision to terminate your current Chali Service package. You must cancel any automatically renewing Chali Service package before it renews in order to avoid billing of subscription fees for the renewal term to your credit card. All fees and charges are nonrefundable and there are no refunds or credits for partially used periods. If your Chali Service package is for a term of 12 months or longer, your subscription is deemed to have begun during the month in which you were first billed by Chali for the Chali Service package (or, in the event that you add more Users to your Chali Service package after beginning your subscription, from the month in which you were first billed for those additional Users). You may terminate Chali Service packages with terms of 12 months or longer at any time; however, because such Chali Service packages may qualify for reduced rate pricing, upon termination Chali will bill you for an amount equal to the difference between the reduced rate you actually paid, and the amount you would have paid under a standard rate Chali Service package.
