‍CHARGES
‍When you register for the Services, you will be given an opportunity to select the specific services you desire from our service offerings. Subject to the Mobile Services Additional Terms above, certain service offerings included in the Services may be used without charge from bSafe Group whereas other services will be offered at premium charges. If premium charges apply to the specific service offerings you have selected, the charges, payment interval and other payment related information associated with the selected service offerings will be disclosed to you at the time you register for the Services and choose your desired service offerings. If you select services for which premium charges apply, you will be required to provide us with your iTunes/Google/Apple ID and password, credit card or PayPal account information to enable bSafe Group to automatically (either monthly, annually or at other agreed upon intervals) charge your iTunes/Google account, credit card or PayPal account the premium charges, if any, associated with the specific services you have selected.

If the service offerings you select have a yearly billing schedule, we will charge your iTunes/Google account, credit card or PayPal account at the beginning of the applicable year for the entire year. Other charges may apply when accessing the Services through one of our Partners. If bSafe Group decides to cancel a service offering for which you have prepaid, unless such cancellation is as a result of your breach of these Terms of Use, bSafe Group shall, in its sole discretion, refund the portion of the services which is unused or credit your account for the use of other service offerings. However, no prepaid charges shall be refundable to you should you terminate or cancel your account with bSafe Group.
