In case of subscribing to the Services during the month, access starts on the subscription day and runs until its anniversary date, depending on the contract duration. The Client acknowledges that any started period is due. Moreover, the Client acknowledges that when tacitly committed for a given period, they cannot request the cancellation and refund of the remaining period until the anniversary date, even if they have used the Service very little.

Number of Licenses and Contract Modifications
A User License is counted for any person who has been granted access rights to the Software, whether actively using the Services or not. The Client can request to add additional licenses to their Contract at any time. In this case, the billing calculation will be based on the remaining duration of the contract until its term. For example, if a Client subscribed to 100 licenses on January 1st of a year and wishes to add 50 additional licenses starting from April 1st of the same year, an invoice corresponding to 50 licenses for a duration of 8 months will be issued. If the initial contract was concluded for a duration of one (1) year or more, the cost per license per month will be calculated by dividing the contract amount by twelve (12) and by the number of licenses. The reduction in the number of licenses can only be made at the contract's expiration. Unless agreed upon by the Parties, it is specifically stated that no refund will be made if the Client wishes to reduce the number of licenses during the contract with Kudeo.
Automatic Renewal
Unless otherwise indicated, the Contract will be automatically renewed on its anniversary date, retaining the conditions of the previous Contract (duration, number of licenses, price per license).

If, at the end of the subscription period, the Client does not wish to renew the Contract, they must inform the Company three (3) weeks before the Contract's end date. The notification must be sent by registered mail with acknowledgment of receipt or by email to the following addresses: oscar@kudeo.co.

Payment Conditions
The Client can make payments by sending a check, bank transfer, automatic debit authorization, or through a secure online payment solution provided by a provider duly chosen by Kudeo. Unless otherwise specified, payment must be made within 30 (thirty) business days of receiving the invoice. No discount is granted for early payment. Any payment incident is subject to late payment interest. The amount of penalties results from the Software on the amounts remaining due, at three times the legal interest rate in force at the time of the incident.
Retention of Client's Bank Details
