7. Overage Billing:
Eden Ascent has established monthly usage allotments and additional usage fees for certain features of our solutions, software, services and products, based on factors including usage, demands, and third party charges. At present, email, asset hosting and bandwidth, and hostname use are the only features for which monthly allotments have been established and additional usage fees apply. Note that any Eden Ascent refund policies that exist DO NOT APPLY to usage fees.
These fees are indicated here below. The fees and limitations will be updated from time to time. Your continued use of our solutions, 3rd party software, services and products is your agreement to the current rates. Eden Ascent strives to keep the fees fair for all who require additional usage:
Every passing month, on your billing cycle date, Eden Ascent calculates your account usage through the previous 30 days. If you go over your allocated amount for any of the above services (Email, Hosting and Bandwidth or Hostnames), the corresponding overage fee will be charged to your account. You can review and monitor for overages in your billing profile. Your account will continue working without any change provided overages are paid when due.
Note that the minimum dollar amount Eden Ascent can charge a credit card for is US$ 1.00. Therefore, if your overage charges for any given 30-day period is between US$ 0.01 and US$ 0.99, Eden Ascent will default the charge to US$ 1.00.
Moreover, if your Contacts count on your billing cycle date exceeds your package limit, your account will be automatically upgraded to the appropriate package, possibly incurring in a higher subscription fee.
8. Package Upgrade/Downgrade:
Eden Ascent subscriptions are purchased on a fixed-term basis: monthly, yearly or bi-yearly, depending on the Virtual Digital Business Management plan you registered for.
When an account in upgraded to a higher tier, the system will run a one-off pro-rated charge for the remaining days of the current billing period. From there after, the standard fees for your newly upgraded package will become effective. Overages are charged based on the package subscription active at the time of them being incurred.
Account downgrades require communication with Eden Ascent's support portal (find the link at the footer of the page) to ensure your account assets are reduced below package requirements. They will also go into effect the following billing cycle.
9. Refund Policies:
Eden Ascent's refund policies vary depending on the solution,service or product as follows:
10. Cancellation Process:
Creating a Cancellation request: A request to cancel a Eden Ascent Digital Business Account must be initiated at least 10 days prior to the next invoice date. Any request to cancel your account must be made via our customer support portal (find link at the footer of this page) with a Eden Ascent representative at least 30 calendar days notice required, alternatively you can email us directly. Customers are encouraged to keep records of all communications regarding cancellation. Until a cancellation request is made, or a cancellation processed via the self-service portal, Eden Ascent will continue to treat it as an open account. Unless cancelled, the billing cycle will continue, possibly resulting in a past due account that may be turned over to a third party collection service. It is imperative that you chat with a Eden Ascent's representative, utilize the self-service option, or submit an online ticket through the cancellation form if you wish to initiate cancellation of your Eden Ascent account.
Cancellation of an account does not dismiss outstanding invoices or nullify previously agreed charges. At the time of cancellation, any outstanding balance must be settled. All cancelled accounts with an outstanding balance may be turned over to a third-party collection service.
11. Billing Disputes:
Each Eden Ascent client or member agrees to provide Eden Ascent 30 days to attempt settlement of any billing dispute before disputing with any third-party credit/debit card company or bank. Should Eden Ascent receive a chargeback from a third-party credit/debit card company or bank on the customer's behalf before Eden Ascent has been given a chance to resolve the issue, Eden Ascent has the right to charge the customer for its time spent in resolving such disputes and any associated fees incurred by Eden Ascent, in addition to the $50 chargeback fee mentioned above. Regardless of the outcome of the chargeback, Eden Ascent retains the right to collect on any Services or fees that are due. Eden Ascent may submit any disputed amounts to a collection agency. Once a chargeback has been received, Eden Ascent has the right to suspend the account until the matter is resolved.
