By purchasing a Subscription, you are contractually committed to continue making any recurrent payments for the entire Subscription period and any ongoing renewal period, until you have terminated the auto-renewal of a Subscription.

We may also update your Payment Method on the database provided by the relevant payment service provider. By accepting our Terms of Use, following such update you authorise us to continue taking payments due for each Purchase (whether a payment instalment or a renewal) using the updated Payment Method.
