If Croo terminates the Agreement pursuant to Section 6.3 or Section 6.4, you shall pay all Fees remaining to be paid until the end of the term of all outstanding Orders. In no event shall termination of the Agreement relieve you of your obligation to pay any amounts due to Croo for any period prior to the date of termination.

Upon expiration or termination of an Order, if Customer requires additional information or services to assist in Customer's transition to another service provider, Customer may make such request and Croo will review the technical feasibility of the request.

These will be deemed to be Professional Services and will be described in a Statement of Work. Croo reserves the right to charge additional Fees for such services.

6.9Suspension of Services:
Croo may, at its discretion, immediately suspend the provision of any Services upon notice to Customer if any of the following events (a "Suspension Event") occurs:

(c) Croo's right to lawfully use any infrastructure, technology, services or data provided by a third party (including a service provider or subcontractor) required to enable the provision of the Service is challenged, suspended or terminated for any reason; or

(d) Croo reasonably believes that the Service may have been damaged, disrupted, compromised or degraded, in its integrity, functionality, operations, performance, results, reliability or security, or the suspension is necessary to prevent a risk that there will be damage or disruption to the Service, or that the Service will be compromised or degraded, in its integrity, functionality, operations, performance, results, reliability or security; or

(e) Croo reasonably believes that suspension of the Service is required by applicable law or is reasonably necessary to prevent or mitigate an imminent risk of harm, loss, damage or liability.

For the avoidance of doubt, the suspension of a service by Croo due to a Suspension Event does not constitute a default under the Contract by Croo, does not entitle the Customer to a refund of any Fees already paid by the Customer and does not give rise to any liability on the part of Croo to the Customer or any other person.

7.1Fees:
You shall pay all fees set forth in each Order and all other applicable fees in connection with your use of the Services as set forth in the fee schedule available at: https://www.croo.io/fr/usage-fees/ or any other fee schedule we make available to you from time to time (the "Fees"). Unless otherwise specified on the Order, the Fees for the entire term of the Order are payable in advance.

7.2Invoicing:
Charges are payable in the currency specified in the applicable Order. Unless otherwise specified on the Order, all invoices are payable upon receipt. Disputed amounts do not affect payment of undisputed amounts. Payments must be made in accordance with the information on the invoice.

7.3Disputes:
relating to invoices. If you dispute an amount on an invoice or monthly statement provided by us, you must notify us in writing within 30 days of your receipt of the invoice or monthly statement, stating the reason for the dispute and the disputed amount. A dispute over a portion of the invoice will not excuse the Customer from timely payment of the entire undisputed amount of the invoice. Once the dispute has been resolved, the Customer must pay the outstanding balance immediately. All amounts overpaid by the Customer will be applied as a billing credit. The Customer will be reimbursed for any billing credit upon expiration or termination of this Agreement.

7.4Late payments:
If undisputed invoiced amounts are not received by Croo by the due date, such Charges may result in interest: (a) at the rate of 1.5% per month (18% per annum); or (b) at the maximum rate permitted by law, calculated from the date payment is due until full payment.

7.5Taxes:
You are responsible for the payment of all taxes and assessments, and all fees and levies that may apply to the sale or licensing of goods or services, as applicable, including all sales taxes, use taxes, goods and services taxes, value added taxes and excise taxes, customs duties and assessments, all payments and interest, fines and penalties thereon, imposed by any governmental authority, including federal or state, provincial, municipal and foreign authorities (collectively, the "Taxes") associated with your subscription to the Services. For clarity, Taxes do not include any taxes based on Croo's income. If we are legally obligated to pay or collect Taxes for which you are responsible under this Section 7.5, the appropriate amount will be billed to and paid by you, unless you provide us with a valid tax exemption certificate authorized by the relevant tax authority. All payments made by or on account of compensation payable under this Agreement shall be made free of any deduction or withholding for Taxes. If you are required to deduct or withhold Taxes from such payments, the amount payable will be increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions and withholdings, we will receive an amount equal to the amount we would have received if no such deduction or withholding had been made.
