C. Services & Fees

While the Standard Service is free for use, additional data charges may apply through your mobile service provider. Additional fees may also apply for use of the Premium Version or other aspects of our Services, specifically, but not limited to, the Edison Assistant app. If there is a charge associated with a portion of the Services, you agree to pay that charge by accessing or using it. The price stated for the Services may be denominated in your local currency by the Google Play Store or any other applicable app store through which you download the apps by Edison (each, an "App Store") on your device. Fees and charges are collected by the App Store on your device. You should consult with the appropriate App Store to determine if the price charged includes all applicable taxes and currency exchange settlements. You are solely responsible for paying such taxes or other charges. Edison relies on the App Store to collect subscription fees and to report on the status of subscription accounts. Your access to our Services may be suspended or cancelled if you do not make your payment on-time and/or in full. Suspension or cancellation of the Services for non-payment could result in a loss of access to and use of your account and its content.

If available, in our sole discretion, and you would like to buy a Premium Subscription for our Services, you do this with in-app subscriptions from the App Store on your device. You will be advised of the charge for the Premium Subscription of the Services before making payment and being billed. You must make all payments through a charge through the applicable App Store. You agree to pay all fees and charges incurred in connection with your use of our Services (including any applicable taxes) at the rates in effect when the charges were incurred. BETWEEN YOU AND EDISON SERVICES, YOU, AND NOT EDISON SERVICES, ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR PAYING ANY AMOUNTS FOR SERVICES BILLED TO YOUR MOBILE DEVICE, CREDIT OR DEBIT CARD BY AN APP STORE OR THIRD PARTY WHO HAD ACCESS TO THESE ACCOUNTS, WHETHER OR NOT SUCH AMOUNTS WERE AUTHORIZED BY YOU.

Subscriptions are managed by the various App Stores directly. Edison Services does not have the ability to manage any aspect of your subscription on your behalf, including, but not limited to, initiating, canceling or refunding subscriptions. Subscriptions are valid for specified periods. Payment will be charged to your App Store account at confirmation of purchase. Your subscription automatically renews unless auto-renew is turned off at least twenty-four (24) hours before the end of the current period. Your account will be charged the then-applicable subscription price within twenty-four (24) hours prior to the end of the current period. Subscriptions may be managed and auto-renewal may be turned off by going to the Account Settings screen in the App Store app on your device after purchase. No cancellation of the current subscription is allowed during active subscription period.
