TERM; TERMINATION:

The Program Terms will continue until terminated.

If Datasite terminates your right to use the Datasite APPs Program, then the Program Terms will terminate.

You may cancel your paid membership or where you do not agree to the increase in price at any time on the Datasite APPs site. Your paid membership will downgrade to the unpaid membership upon completion of the month for which you paid.

After the expiry of the 14 days, customers may cancel at any time and will downgrade to the unpaid membership upon completion of the month for which they have paid.

On termination, any content or documents uploaded to the Datasite APPs Program will be deleted within 30 days of the termination. We reserve the right to terminate the free subscription on written notice where there is no activity on the account for two years or such other period as determined by Datasite.
