(b) Paid Squire Services will not be available to you unless and until you pay the applicable fees and charges (collectively, "Fees"); and
(c) Section 4 (Payments) shall apply to your payments for Paid Squire Services.

As such, you hereby authorize us to collect such information, disclose such information to the applicable Third Party Provider, and create such Third Party Services accounts on your behalf.
3.2. No Responsibility. Nothing herein obligates you to view, access, interact with, or purchase any Third Party Content, Third Party Services, or Third Party Providers.

It is your responsibility to read the respective terms of use and privacy policies of any Third Party Provider that you interact with before you engage in any such activity. Without limiting the generality of this paragraph, you acknowledge that Squire:
(a) may or may not vet Third Party Services and/or Third Party Providers;
(b) may or may not validate, investigate, audit, monitor or control the identity, licensing, certification, qualifications, or bona fides of Third Party Providers, the security of their websites or platform (or other Third Party Content), or the accuracy of Third Party Content (for example, regarding the accuracy of pricing shown for Third Party Services);
(c) is not a party to any contract for the sale of goods or services entered into between you and a Third Party Provider, and Squire is not responsible or liable for the quality, fitness, or legality of such goods or services, for the Third Party Provider's performance under such contract, or for the enforcement of any rights or obligations arising out of such contracts, and has no obligation to mediate between the parties to such contract;

This Section (Payments) applies to Paid Squire Services, as well as to Third Party Services Fees.
4.1. Pricing for Paid Squire Services. The Fees you pay for a Paid Squire Service is according to the pricing displayed on the Site or Services checkout page when you purchase the Paid Squire Service. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, while we try and ensure that all prices on the Site or Services are accurate, errors may occur (including, but not limited to, mispricing in our catalog). If we discover an error in the price of a Paid Squire Service you have purchased, we will inform you of this as soon as possible and give you the option of reconfirming your purchase at the correct price or cancelling it. If we are unable to contact you, we will treat the purchase as cancelled.

Except as expressly stated otherwise in this Agreement, Fees are non-refundable, non-cancellable, and without right of setoff.
4.2. Third Party Services Fees.

The Third Party Provider may authorize Squire to collect payment of Third Party Services Fees on behalf of the Third Party Provider (and may also pay Squire a commission or other compensation for such service); accordingly, you hereby authorized Squire to charge your Payment Method (and perform all other billing activities) in the same manner as described in this Section 4 (Payments) regarding Fees for Paid Squire Services.
4.3. Payment Terms. If we do not collect a credit card, debit card, or other payment method ("Payment Method") from you at the time of purchase of a Paid Squire Service, we will invoice you for the Fees. We shall be entitled to invoice you (as well as provide any billing notices and related reporting) via email to the applicable contact email address associated with your Account, as well as via a functionality of the Services. Any amount not paid by you when due will accrue interest on a daily basis until paid in full, at the lesser of the rate of one and a half percent (1.5%) per month or the highest amount permitted by applicable Law. If you believe that we have invoiced you incorrectly, you must contact us no later than ten (10) days after receiving the invoice in which the alleged error appeared; otherwise you shall be deemed to have accepted the invoice and waived all claims in connection therewith.

4.5. Currency. The base currency currently used for Paid Squire Services is U.S. Dollars. Pricing may be offered in other currencies, and in such cases the pricing is calculated according to the rate of exchange between the base currency and the currency that you select when making your purchase. We reserve the right to update such exchange rates regularly, in our sole discretion, and you acknowledge that such updates may affect pricing. You will be charged according to the applicable exchange rate at the time you make your purchase.
4.6. Payment Method Processing. You represent and warrant that all payment and billing information provided is (and will remain) complete and accurate, and you have the right to use, and have obtained all necessary consents to enable, the necessary Payment Method, and make your purchase with such Payment Method. If applicable to the Payment Method, payment of Fees may be processed through a third-party payment processing service (which will receive and process your billing information), and additional terms may apply to such payments. You authorizes us (and/or our designee) to: (a) request and collect payment (and to otherwise take other billing actions, such as refunds) from you on a recurring basis; and (b) make any inquiries we deem necessary, from time to time, to validate your designated Payment Method or financial information, in order to ensure timely payment of Fees (including, but not limited to, for the purpose of receiving updated payment details from your payment, credit card, or banking account provider – such as, updated expiry date or card number). You acknowledge and agree that we are not responsible for how any third-party payment processor transmits, stores, uses, or shares your Payment Method information.
4.7. Verification. When deciding whether to accept your purchase, we may use certain information about you, including information provided to us by our third party identity verification and fraud alert partners. For example, we may pass on your details for them to check against certain public and private databases and to provide an assessment to us. This will help to protect you and us from fraudulent activities.

Sections 7 (Intellectual Property) through 14 (Miscellaneous), as well as any provision of this Agreement that ought by its nature to survive termination, shall survive termination of this Agreement.
This Agreement (including without limitation its validity) shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York, USA without regard to any conflicts of laws rules or principles.

In the event of any Dispute, such Dispute shall be resolved exclusively by arbitration in accordance with Schedule A attached hereto. However, if the Dispute is not subject to arbitration (either because you opted-out of the arbitration in the manner described in Schedule A, or because a court of competent jurisdiction determined that the agreement to arbitrate does not to apply to you or the Dispute) then the Dispute shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of the competent courts located in New York County, New York, USA, and the parties hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submit to the personal jurisdiction of such courts and waive any jurisdictional, improper venue, inconvenient forum, or other objections to such jurisdiction and venue.
Regardless of any Law to the contrary, you agree that any claim or cause of action arising under, or otherwise in connection with, this Agreement (other than to seek equitable relief or to otherwise protect or enforce a party's Intellectual Property Rights) must be filed within ONE (1) YEAR after such claim or cause of action arose, or else you agree that such claim or cause of action will be barred forever. Any claims or damages that you may hereunder shall only be enforceable against Squire, and not any other entity (such as Squire Affiliates) or Squire's officers, directors, representatives, employees, or agents. Moreover, if you are a consumer (as defined in the law of your jurisdiction), this Agreement is not intended to, and shall not, exclude or limit any mandatory rights you may have under the consumer protection Laws of your jurisdiction.
