Payment, Refunds, Upgrading and Downgrading Terms
- Free users even required to provide a credit card number or use any payment service. Optional paid services are available on the Website (any such services, an "Upgrade"). By selecting an Upgrade you agree to pay Sphere the monthly or annual subscription fees indicated for that service. Payments will be charged on a pre-pay basis on the day you sign up for an Upgrade and will cover the use of that service for a monthly or annual subscription period as indicated.
- Unless you notify Sphere before the end of the applicable subscription period that you want to cancel an Upgrade, your Upgrade subscription will automatically renew and you authorize Sphere to collect the then-applicable annual or monthly subscription fee for such Upgrade (as well as any taxes) using any credit card or other payment mechanism we have on record for you.
- Upgrades can be cancelled at any time from your Sphere Account page. Downgrading your Service may cause the loss of content, features, or capacity of the Service. Sphere does not accept any liability for such loss.
- The first 30 days of use is free with no restrictions and no credit card required. By default your account will be cancelled at the end of the free trial. If you instead decide to add a credit card and subscribe there are no refunds and a monthly or annual charge will recur until you cancel. Cancelling is very easy. You can do it with a couple of clicks on the Account > Subscription page.
