If Customer fails to pay timely any Fees due hereunder, EasyPost will (without limiting its other rights) be entitled to suspend the EasyPost Products and Services associated with Customer’s Account(s) without prior notice to Customer. If payment is not thereafter rendered within thirty (30) days of delivery of notice to Customer of such failure, EasyPost may immediately terminate this Agreement. EasyPost will not have any liability whatsoever for any damage, liabilities, losses (including any lost profits) or any other consequences that Customer may incur with respect to any suspension or termination of the EasyPost Products and Services in accordance with this Agreement. EasyPost reserves the right to change the Fees for EasyPost Products and Services upon twenty-four (24) hours’ written notice; if Customer does not consent to such change, Customer may terminate the applicable Order Form with respect to the affected EasyPost Products and Services within such twenty-four (24) hour period. If Customer uses a designated credit card or ACH (from a bank account acceptable by EasyPost) for payment of the Fees and other charges, Customer authorizes the card issuer to pay all such amounts and authorizes EasyPost (or its billing agent) to charge the credit card and/or account during the Term; provided that if payment is not received through the credit card and/or account, Customer agrees to pay all amounts due upon demand. In certain instances, the issuer of the credit card may charge a foreign transaction fee or related charges, which Customer will be responsible to pay. If Customer’s payment method choice is a credit card for any given payment, a standard convenience fee of three and three-quarters percent (3.75%) will apply.
- Future Functionality. Customer’s purchases of the EasyPost Products and Services are not contingent on the development or delivery of any future functionality or features, or dependent on any oral or written comments made by EasyPost regarding future functionality or features.
- Disputes. Customer will notify EasyPost in writing in the event Customer disputes any portion of any Fees paid or payable by Customer under this Agreement. Customer will provide such notice to EasyPost within sixty (60) days of the applicable charge, and the parties will work together to resolve the applicable dispute promptly. Upon expiration of the sixty-day (60-day) period described in this Section 4.4, Customer will not be entitled, and hereby waives any right, to dispute any Fees paid or payable by Customer. Customer agrees to pay all costs of collection, including attorneys’ fees and costs, on any outstanding balance owed to EasyPost.

Customer hereby authorizes EasyPost and its third party payment processors to charge Fees to such payment methods. Customer may designate a payment method as its primary payment method. If Customer only has one active payment method registered, it will automatically be Customer’s primary payment method. Unless Customer specifically designates a secondary payment method for payment of Fees within Customer’s account, Customer’s primary payment method will automatically be charged for Fees. If Customer’s primary payment method is removed, disconnected, or is otherwise no longer active or current, EasyPost may, at its election, designate any of Customer’s other registered payment methods as Customer’s primary payment method.

If Customer is required by applicable law to deduct or withhold any amounts from amounts paid by Customer to EasyPost, Customer will pay such additional amounts as are necessary to ensure that the net amounts received by EasyPost are equal to the amounts EasyPost would have received absent such withholding tax
- Payment Terms. Customer agrees to pay all Fees in accordance with the terms and on the schedule described in the applicable Order Form or otherwise in this Agreement or the applicable Addenda. Unpaid amounts are subject to a finance charge of 1.5% per month on any outstanding balance, or the maximum amount permitted by law, whichever is lower, plus all expenses of collection including but not limited to reasonable attorneys’ fees. If Customer fails to pay timely any Fees due hereunder, EasyPost will (without limiting its other rights) be entitled to suspend the EasyPost Products and Services associated with Customer’s Account(s) without prior notice to Customer. If payment is not thereafter rendered within thirty (30) days of delivery of notice to Customer of such failure, EasyPost may immediately terminate this Agreement. EasyPost will not have any liability whatsoever for any damage, liabilities, losses (including any lost profits) or any other consequences that Customer may incur with respect to any suspension or termination of the EasyPost Products and Services in accordance with this Agreement. EasyPost reserves the right to change the Fees for EasyPost Products and Services upon twenty-four (24) hours’ written notice; if Customer does not consent to such change, Customer may terminate the applicable Order Form with respect to the affected EasyPost Products and Services within such twenty-four (24) hour period. If Customer uses a designated credit card or ACH (from a bank account acceptable by EasyPost) for payment of the Fees and other charges, Customer authorizes the card issuer to pay all such amounts and authorizes EasyPost (or its billing agent) to charge the credit card and/or account during the Term; provided that if payment is not received through the credit card and/or account, Customer agrees to pay all amounts due upon demand. In certain instances, the issuer of the credit card may charge a foreign transaction fee or related charges, which Customer will be responsible to pay. If Customer’s payment method choice is a credit card for any given payment, a standard convenience fee of three and three-quarters percent (3.75%) will apply.

Customer will provide such notice to EasyPost within sixty (60) days of the applicable charge, and the parties will work together to resolve the applicable dispute promptly. Upon expiration of the sixty-day (60-day) period described in this Section 4.4, Customer will not be entitled, and hereby waives any right, to dispute any Fees paid or payable by Customer. Customer agrees to pay all costs of collection, including attorneys’ fees and costs, on any outstanding balance owed to EasyPost.
- Refunds. Except as set forth in the applicable Order Form or in EasyPost’s Refund Policy (available at www.easypost.com/legal/refund-policy) as in effect at the time of Customer’s payment (the “Refund Policy”), all Fees are non-cancellable and non-refundable.

- Payment Methods. Customer may register one or more payment methods with Customer’s Account (defined below). Customer hereby authorizes EasyPost and its third party payment processors to charge Fees to such payment methods. Customer may designate a payment method as its primary payment method. If Customer only has one active payment method registered, it will automatically be Customer’s primary payment method. Unless Customer specifically designates a secondary payment method for payment of Fees within Customer’s account, Customer’s primary payment method will automatically be charged for Fees. If Customer’s primary payment method is removed, disconnected, or is otherwise no longer active or current, EasyPost may, at its election, designate any of Customer’s other registered payment methods as Customer’s primary payment method.
- Restrictions and Responsibilities.

Customer hereby authorizes EasyPost and its third party payment processors to charge Fees to such payment methods. Customer may designate a payment method as its primary payment method. If Customer only has one active payment method registered, it will automatically be Customer’s primary payment method. Unless Customer specifically designates a secondary payment method for payment of Fees within Customer’s account, Customer’s primary payment method will automatically be charged for Fees. If Customer’s primary payment method is removed, disconnected, or is otherwise no longer active or current, EasyPost may, at its election, designate any of Customer’s other registered payment methods as Customer’s primary payment method.

- Legality of Processing Instructions. Company shall immediately inform Customer in writing, including by electronic mail, if it believes that an instruction of Customer relating to the Processing of Personal Data infringes on EU Data Protection Laws.
- Subprocessors.
- Communication of Changes to the Subprocessor List. If Company intends to add or replace any Subprocessor in the Subprocessor list in Annex D, as generally authorized in Section 3.1 of the DPA, Company shall inform Customer of the changes and provide Customer the opportunity to object to these changes pursuant to Section 2(b) of this Annex B.
- Objection to New Subprocessors. If Customer has an objection to the addition of a new Subprocessor to the Subprocessor List in accordance with Section 3of the DPA, Customer must notify Company of the objection in writing within ten (10) calendar days of the addition of the new Subprocessor to the Subprocessor List. If Customer does not notify Company in writing of an objection within ten (10) calendar days, Customer waives any objection that it may have had to the new Subprocessor. If Customer submits an objection in accordance with this Section 2, the Parties agree to discuss Customer’s concerns in good faith with a view toward achieving a commercially reasonable resolution. If no such resolution can be reached within thirty (30) calendar days, Company may, at its option, either withdraw the objectionable Subprocessor and either perform the Services itself, or appoint a new Subprocessor in accordance with the terms of Section 3of the DPA. The parties agree that by complying with this Section 2, Company fulfills its obligations under Section 9 of the Standard Contractual Clauses.
- Subprocessor Contractual Terms. Company will contractually impose data protection obligations on its Subprocessors that are equivalent to those data protection obligations imposed on Company under the DPA and this Annex B.
- Liability for Acts/Omissions of Subprocessors. Company shall remain liable for the acts and omissions of its Subprocessors to the same extent that Company would be liable if it performed the services of each Subprocessor directly under the terms of this DPA.

To the extent required under applicable EU Data Protection Laws, Company shall (taking into account the nature of the processing and the information available to Company) provide all reasonably requested information regarding the Services to enable Customer to carry out data protection impact assessments or prior consultations with Supervisory Authorities as required by EU Data Protection Laws. Company shall comply with the foregoing by: (i) complying with Section 5 (Audits) of this Annex B; (ii) providing the information contained in the Agreement, including this DPA; and (iii) if the foregoing subsections (i) and (ii) are insufficient for Customer to comply with such obligations, upon request, providing additional reasonable assistance (at Customer’s expense).

Company will review the proposed audit plan and provide Customer with any concerns or questions (for example, any request for information that could compromise Company’s security, privacy, employment or other relevant policies). Company will work cooperatively with Customer to agree on a final audit plan. Nothing in this Section 5.3 shall require Company to disclose any information where such disclosure would result in a breach of any duty of confidentiality.
- Third Party Audit Reports. If the controls or measures to be assessed in the requested audit are addressed in an SOC 2 Type 2 or similar audit report performed by a qualified third-party auditor within twelve (12) months of Customer’s audit request and Company has confirmed there are no known material changes in the controls audited, Customer agrees to accept such report in lieu of requesting an audit of such controls or measures.

- Audit Reports. Customer will promptly notify Company of any non-compliance discovered during the course of an audit and provide Company any audit reports generated in connection with any audit under this Section 5 unless prohibited by applicable Data Protection Laws or otherwise instructed by a Supervisory Authority.
