Pal has a set monthly message usage limit for certain bots on Pal, including GPT4 by OpenAI. Subscribers will receive 700 GPT4 messages per month; after these message limits are reached, messaging speed, bot availability, or quality may be reduced. The monthly message limit will be displayed at the time you purchase a Pal Subscription. You can check your monthly message usage by visiting Settings in the Pal app. Message usage limits reset monthly on the first of the month.

1.2 Conditions

Timely receipt of any Subscription fees by Pal. As described in Section 2, you will not have access to Subscription Services if you cancel or fail to pay for a Subscription, including if your payment method becomes invalid.

You must maintain adequate security measures for your account and may not share your Pal account password with someone else to allow them to access the Subscription.

Except as permitted by the Terms of Service and Participating Creators, you may not sell, rent, sub-license, or lend Subscription Content.

You are responsible for maintaining the security and accuracy of your Pal account, and you will be charged for any Subscriptions placed on or through your Pal account, including without limitation Subscriptions placed without sufficient authorization, or through mistake or error.

You will not present any false, inaccurate, or misleading information in an effort to misrepresent your location or place of residence, and you will not attempt to circumvent any restrictions on access to or availability of the Subscription Services or content available within the Subscription Services.

2. Payments and Billing

2.1 General

Fees. All fees and charges will be described to you when you sign-up for a Subscription Service. You agree to pay the price stated at the time of purchase, as well as any applicable taxes. You also agree to the billing frequency as stated at the time of purchase.

Taxes. If Pal is required to collect or pay any taxes in connection with your purchase of a Subscription, such taxes will be charged to you at the time of each purchase transaction or other appropriate time as applicable. The Subscription fees will not include Value Added Tax (“VAT”) or Goods & Services Tax (“GST”). If you subscribed via a third party, such as Apple or GooglePlay, taxes, including VAT or GST, may be collected upon purchase. Additionally, if required by law, you are responsible for reporting and paying certain taxes in connection with your purchase and use of Subscriptions. Such taxes may include duties, customs fees, or other taxes (other than income tax), along with any related penalties or interest, as applicable to your purchase or country of purchase.

Payment Methods. In order to purchase a Subscription Service, you must provide account information for at least one valid debit or credit card or other payment method through or to the Pal Platform. You may receive a temporary authorization charge to validate your payment method. Pal uses this payment method account information as described in our privacy policy. If you subscribed via a third party, such as Apple or GooglePlay, your provision of such debit or credit card shall be subject to the terms and conditions specified by such third party. Accepted payment methods may vary based on your location. Pal takes no responsibility and assumes no liability for any actions or omissions of such third party.

You represent and warrant that you have the legal right to use any payment method used by you in connection with any Subscription.

Payment Processors. Pal works with third-party service providers to perform payment processing, including card processing and currency exchange ("Payment Agent"). Any payment processing will be subject to the terms and privacy policy of the Payment Agent. Pal may share transaction information (namely, the amount of payment due) with our Payment Agent, but not credit card
information, which you provide to the Payment Agent directly and not to Pal.

Currencies. All prices are in United States Dollars or another currency specified by Pal at the time of purchase. The currency used to charge you for Subscription payments depends on the billing country where your payment method is located. You agree to and acknowledge that Pal cannot control any currency conversion or foreign transaction fees that may be charged to you by your card issuer or bank for your Subscription payment.

Restricted Countries. There may be countries that restrict or prohibit your ability to make payments through the Pal Platform or third-parties, such as Apple or GooglePlay. Nothing in these Subscriber Terms should be interpreted to override or circumvent any such foreign laws.

Unauthorized Charges. Without limitation of the above terms, if you believe that a problematic transaction has taken place under your account, you agree to notify us immediately, so that we may take action to prevent financial loss.

Data Charges. When you use your Subscription, you may incur other additional charges from third party service providers, such as telecommunications fees or data fees. You are responsible for paying any additional charges.

2.2 General

Recurring Charges. If you purchase an annual or monthly Subscription, you authorize Pal to charge you the annual or monthly Subscription fee as selected by you in the course of the transaction at purchase and each year or month thereafter on the annual or monthly anniversary of the start of your Subscription, respectively, using the payment method you provided at the then-current rate.

You acknowledge that a Subscription has recurring payment features. You accept responsibility for all recurring payment obligations prior to cancellation of your Subscription.

Refunds. All Subscription fees or other final charges are non-refundable, other than as set forth in our Refund Policy or as determined by Pal. If you subscribed via a third party, such as Apple or GooglePlay, please contact such service to understand their refund policies.

Third Party Purchases. Subscriptions and other purchases through a third party (e.g., Google Play, iOS or PayPal) are managed directly by the applicable third party. You should consult with the appropriate third party 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. Those third parties collect one-time and subscription fees, manage the subscription, and report to us on the status of subscription accounts that have been purchased from them. We do not have the ability to initiate, cancel, or refund such a third-party subscription on your behalf, but we do have the ability to make changes to your subscription entitlements in connection with such third-party subscriptions (for example, by turning off your entitlement to a subscription if you canceled it through a third-party).

2.3 Changes to the Price and Subscription Plans

We may change our subscription plans and the price of our Subscription Services from time to time; however, any price changes or changes to your subscription plans will apply no earlier than 30 days following notice to you. If you do not wish to accept the price change or change to your subscription plan, you can cancel your subscription before the change takes effect.

2.4 Free Trials and Promotional Codes

Pal may offer free trial Subscriptions for a specified period (“Free Trials”). If we offer you a Free Trial, specific terms will be provided at signup or any promotional materials. Unless you cancel your Subscription prior to its end, we will begin charging your payment method after the Free Trial for the applicable monthly or annual recurring Subscription fees selected by you as described in Section 2.1 above. You can cancel your Free Trial or Subscription at any time as described in Section 2.5 below. Limit one Free Trial per person.

Pal may offer promotional codes from time to time. Promotional codes will expire on the date provided in any promotional materials. Only one promotional code may be redeemed per account during each promotion. Promotional codes are not transferable and are not redeemable for cash.

You may cancel a Subscription, including Free Trials, through your account settings at any time. The cancellation will take effect at the end of the Free Trial or the current billing cycle (the "Cancellation Effective Date"). You are responsible for all Subscription fees (plus any applicable taxes or charges) incurred before the Cancellation Effective Date. You will have access to Subscription Content until the Cancellation Effective Date.

Pal may terminate your Subscription for non-payment of Subscription fees or violating these Subscriber Terms or Terms of Service, including the Acceptable Use Policy.
