2. Purchasing Online Services.

a. Available Subscription offers. The Portal provides Offer Details for available Subscriptions, which generally can be categorized as one or a combination of the following: Commitment Offering. You commit in advance to purchase a specific quantity or term of Online Services for use during a Term and pay upfront or on a periodic basis in advance of use. With respect to the Online Services, additional or other usage (for example, usage beyond your commitment) may be treated as a Consumption Offering. Committed service not used during the Term will expire at the end of the Term. Consumption Offering (also called Pay-As-You-Go). You pay based on actual usage in the preceding month with no upfront commitment. Payment is on a periodic basis in arrears. Limited Offering. You receive a limited quantity of Online Services for a limited term without charge (for example, a free trial). Provisions in this Agreement with respect to pricing, cancellation fees, payment, SLAs, and data retention may not apply to such offering.

b. Ordering. By ordering or renewing a Service Subscription, You agree to the Offer Details for that Subscription. Unless otherwise specified in those Offer Details Online Services are offered on an "as available" basis. Some offers may permit You to modify the quantity of Online Services ordered during the Term of a Subscription. Additional quantities of Online Services added to a Subscription will expire at the end of that Subscription. If You decrease the quantity during a Term, we may charge You a cancellation fee for the decrease in quantity as described below in Section 3.b.

c. Pricing and payment. Payments are due and must be made according to the Offer Details for Your Subscription. For Commitment Offerings, the price level may be based on the quantity of Online Services You ordered. Some offers may permit you to modify the quantity of Online Services ordered during the Term and your price level may be adjusted accordingly, but price level changes will not be retroactive. During the Term of Your Subscription, prices for Online Services will not be increased, as to your Subscription, from those posted in the Portal at the time your Subscription became effective or was renewed, except where prices are identified as temporary in the Offer Details, or for Previews. All prices are subject to change at the beginning of any Subscription renewal. For Consumption Offerings, pricing is subject to change at any time upon notice.

d. Renewal. Upon renewal of your Subscription, this Agreement will terminate, and Your Subscription will thereafter be governed, by the terms and conditions set forth in the Portal on the date on which Your Subscription is renewed (the "Renewal Terms"). If you do not agree to any Renewal Terms, You may decline to renew your Subscription. For Commitment Offerings, You may choose to have a Subscription automatically renew or terminate upon expiration of the Term. Automatic renewal is pre-selected. You can change Your selection at any time during the Term. If the existing Term is longer than one calendar month, we will provide you with notice of the automatic renewal before the expiration of the Term. For Consumption Offerings, Your Subscription will renew automatically for additional one-month terms until you terminate the Subscription. For Limited Offerings or Trial Subscriptions, renewal may not be permitted.

e. Taxes. Prices are exclusive of any taxes. You must pay any applicable value added, goods and services, sales, or like taxes that are owed with respect to any order placed under this Agreement and which we are permitted or required to collect from you under applicable law.
