NOTICE: THIS AGREEMENT INCLUDES (1) A BINDING ARBITRATION CLAUSE WHICH AFFECTS YOUR RIGHTS; AND (2) A REQUIREMENT FOR CUSTOMERS OUTSIDE OF THE UNITED STATES TO TRANSFER DATA INTO THE UNITED STATES. PLEASE READ IT CAREFULLY.

 

YOUR USE OF THE SERVICES

You are responsible for your use of the Services. By using the Services, you represent and warrant that you are authorized on behalf of your organization to form a binding contract with Level Tax and that you meet all applicable eligibility requirements. If you do not, you must not access or use the Services.

 

SERVICES

The Services may be further described in any selected service package, purchase order, invoice, statement of work, or other written document prepared or advertised by Level Tax (each, a “Service Document”). In the absence of a Service Document, details and pricing of the Services shall be defined by Level Tax then-current standard pricing page (available at: https://lvltax.com/pricing/) (“Pricing Page”).

 

FEES & PAYMENT

In consideration of the Services provided hereunder, you will pay Level Tax all fees and expenses pursuant to the applicable Service Documents or as set forth on Level Tax Pricing Page, including all applicable taxes due (“Fees”). Beginning on the Effective Date (as defined below), the first thirty (30) days of the Services shall be provided to you free of charge. Following such thirty (30) day period, all Fees for the Services that fall within the normal scope of services shall be automatically withdrawn from your bank account via ACH on the first of each applicable month, and you shall receive an invoice for such Services three (3) days prior to the date on which funds are to be withdrawn; with the invoice for the first month of such Services following the thirty (30) day introductory period being pro-rated to account for any partial month. Your engagement with Level Tax is based on current needs; as those needs change Level Tax may need to adjust your pricing. Furthermore, Level Tax may increase your monthly Fees by up to 5% on each annual anniversary of the date on which you accepted and electronically consented to this Agreement (the “Effective Date”).

Any additional technologies or services required to provide the Services will be billed according to the rates listed in the Technology Add-ons List below. Fees for projects outside the normal scope of services (each such project, an “Additional Service”), including but not limited to implementation, catch up, and clean up fees shall be billed hourly at Level Tax then current professional services rates. Level Tax will scope out each Additional Service and provide you with pricing/costs to complete each Additional Service prior to commencing work, and Level Tax will not begin work on such Additional Service until you and Level Tax have mutually agreed on the project scope. Fees for Additional Services will be automatically withdrawn from your bank account via ACH on the 1st of each applicable month, and you shall receive an invoice for such Additional Services seven (7) days prior to the date on which funds are to be withdrawn. Unless otherwise stated in a Service Document, you agree to reimburse Level Tax for all reasonable expenses incurred by Level Tax in delivering an Additional Service to you, including parking, postage, international phone calls, software and technical support. Level Tax agrees to itemize such expenses on each applicable invoice.

You will incur a monthly finance charge of 1.5% for any balance that is overdue by 30 days. If you dispute any portion of an invoice, you agree to pay the undisputed portion of the invoice and to submit a written dispute within 15 days of the invoice date. Your dispute must include written documentation to support the dispute. Your failure to submit a written dispute of charges within such time shall be deemed final acceptance of all charges.

You hereby authorize Level Tax to initiate ACH and credit card charges for Services and Additional Services payable by ACH or credit card.
