§3.1 Indemnification by HomeRun IQ
HomeRun IQ will defend Client against any claim, demand, suit or proceeding made or brought against Client by a third party alleging that any Purchased Service infringes or misappropriates such third party's intellectual property rights (a "Claim Against Client"), and will indemnify Client from any damages, reasonable attorney fees and costs finally awarded against Client as a result of, or for amounts paid by Client under a settlement approved by HomeRun IQ in writing of a Claim Against Client, provided Client (a) promptly gives HomeRun IQ written notice of the Claim Against Client, (b) gives HomeRun IQ sole control of the defense and settlement of the Claim Against Client (except that HomeRun IQ may not settle any Claim Against Client unless it unconditionally releases Client of all liability), and (c) gives HomeRun IQ all reasonable assistance, at HomeRun IQ's expense.

In the event Client provides HomeRun IQ with any suggestions, ideas, improvements or other feedback with respect to any aspect of any of the foregoing ("Feedback"), Client shall and hereby does grant HomeRun IQ (and its successors and assigns) a non-exclusive, perpetual, irrevocable, sublicensable, transferable, royalty-free, fully paid-up, worldwide right and license to copy, reproduce, modify, create derivatives of, display, perform, sell, offer for sale, distribute and otherwise exploit such Feedback for any purpose.
5. SUBSCRIPTION TERM, FEES & PAYMENT
§5.1 Subscription Term and Renewals
The Service Order sets the initial term. Thereafter, each Service Order automatically renews for successive terms equal to the initial term unless either party provides written notice of non-renewal at least forty-five (45) days prior to expiration. If no initial term is specified, the initial term is one (1) year.
§5.2 Fees and Payment
Fees are as set forth in the Service Order and are billed monthly in advance (payable in USD within thirty (30) days of invoice). HomeRun IQ may adjust fees on written notice delivered at least sixty (60) days prior to the end of the then-current term; adjustments take effect beginning on the next term. Except as expressly set forth in §6 and §7, fees are non-cancellable and nonrefundable. Client pays applicable taxes other than HomeRun IQ's income taxes. Late payments incur 1.5% per month or the maximum allowed by law, plus collection costs.
§5.3 Suspension of Service
If Client's account is thirty (30) days or more overdue, HomeRun IQ may suspend access until amounts are paid in full.
§5.4 Onboarding and Billing Commencement
The subscription term and associated billing commence upon completion of HomeRun IQ's standard setup and training process ("Onboarding"), as described in the applicable Service Order or service description. If Onboarding is not complete within forty-five (45) days of Service Order execution, subscription term billing will commence automatically on the forty-sixth (46th) day.
§5.5 Overage Charges and Adjustments
(a) Mid-Term Overage Billing. If Client exceeds the subscription allowance during the current term, HomeRun IQ will invoice Client for such overages at any time during the subscription term, rather than waiting until renewal.
(b) Overage Billing Prior to Renewal. If Client has outstanding overage usage at the time of renewal, HomeRun IQ reserves the right to invoice Client for such overages prior to processing the renewal.
(c) Roll-Over of Overage Usage. Any request by Client to roll overage usage into a higher-tier subscription must be communicated in writing at least forty-five (45) days prior to the end of the current term and is subject to HomeRun IQ's written approval. Approval will be based on alignment with Client's historical and projected usage patterns. Absent such agreement, overage charges will be invoiced in accordance with this Agreement.
(d) Calculation of Overage Charges. Overage charges will be calculated based on the applicable overage rate set forth in the Service Order or pricing schedule. If no overage rate is specified, overages will be billed at 125% of the per-unit rate implied by Client's subscription tier. Overage charges are payable under the payment terms of this Agreement.
§5.6 Usage Metering; Package Adjustment
(a) Metering. Usage is recorded by the Services. Billing will be based on system-recorded usage metrics; the Parties will review any discrepancy in good faith. Absent manifest error, system records control. HomeRun IQ will provide Client with usage summaries upon reasonable request.
(b) Mid-Term Upgrade. If actual usage indicates that Client's ongoing needs materially exceed the subscribed allowance, HomeRun IQ may propose a package adjustment. Upon mutual written agreement (including by email confirmation or amended Service Order), the subscription may be increased mid-term, with charges prorated for the remainder of the term, or the adjustment may be rolled into a new full-year contract.
(c) Mid-Term Downgrade. Downgrades are not permitted mid-term. At renewal, Client may elect a lower tier subject to HomeRun IQ's then-current pricing.
(d) True-Up at Renewal. At renewal, the Parties may conduct a true-up to adjust the subscribed allowance to reflect actual usage in the prior term. Because usage during the final period of the term may not yet be fully reconciled, a true-up period of up to thirty (30) days following renewal may apply. Any true-up will be documented in the Service Order for the renewal term; any additional amounts owed for the prior term will be invoiced per §5.2.
§5.7 Unused Units; No Automatic Credit
Unused Subscription Units expire at the end of the applicable term and are forfeited without credit, refund, or rollover.
§5.8 Billing Disputes
Client must notify HomeRun IQ in writing of any good-faith billing dispute within 30 days of invoice receipt, with reasonable detail. Undisputed amounts remain payable by the due date. The Parties will work in good faith to resolve disputes within 30 days.
§5.9 Price Adjustment for Renewal Terms
Beginning with the first renewal term and for each subsequent renewal, subscription fees may be increased by up to the greater of: (a) 4% over the prior term's fees, or (b) the percentage increase in the Consumer Price Index (CPI-U, U.S. City Average, All Items) published by the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics for the most recent 12-month period available at the time of renewal. HomeRun IQ will provide written notice of any such adjustment at least 60 days prior to renewal. If Client does not agree to the adjusted fees, Client may elect non-renewal per §5.1.

10. CONFIDENTIALITY
Each party agrees that all business, technical and financial information it obtains ("Receiving Party") from the disclosing party ("Disclosing Party") constitute the confidential property of the Disclosing Party ("Confidential Information"), provided that it is identified as confidential at the time of disclosure or should be reasonably known by the Receiving Party to be Confidential Information due to the nature of the information disclosed and the circumstances surrounding the disclosure.
