2. SERVICES
2.1 General. The Avo Platform is an application for businesses to define their analytics events, and auto-generate custom APIs that give developers instant feedback of correct implementation. Current Services plans are described at https://www.avo.app/pricing, and Customer’s specific plan will be identified in the Order Form presented when Customer registers, orders or pays for the Service. Customer’s permitted scope of use – such as features available and other usage limits – depends on the plan that Customer selects and will be specified on the applicable Order Form.
2.2 Paid Plans. Services provided for a fee (“Paid Plans”) are provided on a subscription basis for the term designated on the Order Form (“Subscription Term”). Unless otherwise specified on the applicable Order Form, each Subscription Term shall automatically renew for the same period as the then-current Subscription Term unless either party gives the other written notice of termination at least thirty (30) days prior to expiration of the then-current Subscription Term (e.g., monthly Paid Plans will automatically roll over month-to-month and annual Paid Plans will automatically renew for additional 12-month periods).
2.3 Trials. If designated on the applicable Order Form, Customer may use the Services in accordance with this Agreement for the limited trial period designated on the Order Form or such other period as may be specified by Avo (the “Trial Period”) (such Services plan, a “Trial”). Trials are permitted solely for your use to determine whether to purchase a Paid Plan. If Customer does not upgrade from a Trial to a Paid Plan at the end of the Trial Period, then Customer’s access to the Services may be limited or suspended (to be determined at our sole discretion) until such time as Customer terminates this Agreement or converts to a Paid Plan. Trials may not include all features or functionality offered as part of Paid Plans, and we reserve the right to add or subtract any features or functionality at any time for such plans. NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING TO THE CONTRARY THIS AGREEMENT. WE DO NOT PROVIDE ANY WARRANTY, SUPPORT OR INDEMNIFICATION OF ANY KIND WITH RESPECT TO THE SERVICES DURING THE TRIAL PERIOD.
2.4 Free Plans. Customer may use certain limited features of the Services at no charge (“Free Plans”). Free Plans do not include all features or functionality offered as part of Paid Plans, and we may, from time to time, add or subtract features or functionality for Free Plans. If you register for a Free Plan for such limited Services, we will make such Services available to you free of charge until the earlier of (a) the start date of any subscription to a Paid Plan to which you subscribe to use the Services; or (b) termination of the Free Plan by us in our sole discretion. NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING TO THE CONTRARY IN THIS AGREEMENT, WE DO NOT PROVIDE ANY WARRANTY, SUPPORT OR INDEMNIFICATION OF ANY KIND WITH RESPECT TO THE SERVICES ACCESSED OR OFFERED UNDER A FREE PLAN.

The Services and Avo Platform are licensed, not sold, to you. Upon the written agreement of the parties, Avo may also perform additional technical, supplemental, or professional services for Customer at either Avo’s published pricing rates or at rates mutually agreed to in writing between Customer and Avo. The definition “Services” is comprehensive of professional services, technical support, programming, deliverables, training materials, documentation, and other services specific to Avo’s and its affiliates’ products and services.

Avo may enhance and modify the Services and introduce new Services from time to time but will provide Customer with notice pursuant to Section 1 (Modifications to the Terms and Services) above unless such changes are of minor nature with no material effect on Avo’s contractual obligations. To the extent we make available any new or different features, functionality or enhancements to the Services, we will market these separately and may require the payment of additional fees. You agree that we are not liable to you or any third party for any modification of the Services in keeping with this section. The Avo Platform may automatically download and install updates from time to time from Avo (or our licensors). These updates are designed to improve, enhance and further develop the Services, as applicable, and may take the form of bug fixes, enhanced functions, new software modules and completely new versions.
