8. Fees and Payment
8.1 Service Fees. If your use of a Service does not require an Order or Paid Plan but software licensing fees are charged contemporaneously with your use of the Service, those fees will be charged as described on the Platform Terms of Use or in the user interface of the Service. Such fees may be calculated by combining a fee charged by us and a fee charged by us and a fee charged by a Third Party Service that provides certain functionality related to the Service. For those Services which entail an Order or Paid Plan, we calculate and bill fees and charges according to your Order or Paid Plan.
8.2 In addition, for particular Orders, we may issue an invoice to you for all charges above the applicable threshold for your Paid Plan which constitute overage fees for the previous billing period. If you make any other changes to the Services during a billing period (for example, upgrading or downgrading your Paid Plan), we will apply any additional charges or credits to the next billing period. We may bill you more frequently for fees accrued at our discretion upon notice to you. You will pay all fees in U.S. dollars unless the particular Service specifies a different form of payment or otherwise agreed to by you and us in writing. All amounts payable by you under this Agreement will be paid to us without setoff or counterclaim, and without any deduction or withholding. Fees and charges for any new Service or new feature of an Service will be effective when we use commercially reasonable efforts to communicate updated fees and charges through our Platform Terms of Use, the interface of the Service itself, or other public channels or, if you are on a Paid Plan, upon commercially reasonable efforts to notify you directly, but we may expressly state when notifying you that another effective date applies. We may increase or add new fees and charges for any existing Services you are using by using commercially reasonable efforts to notify users of the Services through our Platform Terms of Use, the interface of the Service itself, other public channels or, if you are on a Paid Plan, by giving you 30 days' notice. Unless otherwise specified in an Order, all Paid Plan amounts due under this Agreement are payable within 30 days following receipt of your invoice. We may elect to charge you interest at the rate of 12% per month (or the highest rate permitted by law, if less) on all late payments.
8.3 Taxes. Each party will be responsible, as required under applicable law, for identifying and paying all taxes and other governmental fees and charges (and any penalties, interest, and other additions thereto) that are imposed on that party upon or with respect to the transactions and payments under this Agreement. All fees payable by you are exclusive taxes unless otherwise noted. We reserve the right to withhold taxes where required.
