NON-PAYMENT AND SUSPENSION
In addition to any other rights granted to Breakwater Designs herein, Breakwater Designs reserves the right to suspend or terminate this Agreement and your access to SHAREVISION if your account becomes delinquent (falls into arrears). Delinquent invoices (accounts in arrears) are subject to interest of 2% per month on any outstanding balance, or the maximum permitted by law, whichever is less, plus all expenses of collection. If you or SHAREVISION.CA initiates termination of this Agreement, you will be obligated to pay the balance due on your account computed in accordance with the SUBSCRIPTION CHARGES AND FEES section above.
Breakwater reserves the right to impose a reconnection fee in the event you are suspended and thereafter request access to the SHAREVISION. You agree and acknowledge that Breakwater has no obligation to retain your data and that your data may be irretrievably deleted if your account is 30 days or more delinquent (40 days from invoice date).
TERMINATION
SHAREVISION is a prepaid, subscription-based service. If you wish to terminate service, please advise our office or your Project Manager so that we may make preparations to close the account.
At the end of your payment cycle, if you wish to terminate, we provide an additional two week period in which you may login to export your data. For example, if you begin service on January 1st, 2021 then you will have paid for service until January 1st, 2022. If you decide to cancel in October, 2021, your site will still be available until January 15, 2022. This is the period in which you paid for the site to be available, plus the two-week buffer that we offer free of charge.
Breakwater provides this period of time as a courtesy, not as an obligation, and you agree that A TWO-WEEK PERIOD PROVIDES A SUFFICIENT SPAN OF TIME IN WHICH TO COMPLETE THE IMPORTANT TASK OF BACKING UP AND ARCHIVING YOUR DATA. After the two week courtesy period, it is possible that the website will be deleted and all of the data within.
TERMINATION FOR CAUSE
Any breach of your payment obligations or unauthorized use of the SHAREVISION Technology will be deemed a material breach of this Agreement. Breakwater Designs, in its sole discretion, may terminate your password, account or use of SHAREVISION if you breach or otherwise fail to comply with this Agreement.
