FEES & PAYMENT
Fees. You agree to pay the subscription fees set forth in Order Form. This subscription fee for the current term is non-cancellable once paid and non-refundable. In the event you elect to upgrade your Platform level or otherwise add any paid component or feature, we will prorate the amount due based on the number of days remaining in your billing cycle. For the avoidance of doubt, there are no refunds or credits for partially used periods, or where you have elected to downgrade Platform levels or otherwise remove any paid component or feature.

Entire Agreement. The Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between you and Musubi Labs and governs your use of the Platform, superseding any prior agreement with respect to the Platform.
Waiver and Severability of Terms. The failure of Musubi Labs to exercise or enforce any right or provision of the Agreement shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision. If any provision of the Agreement is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid under applicable law, the parties nevertheless agree that the court should endeavor to give effect to the parties’ intentions to the greatest extent possible as reflected in the provision, and the other provisions of the Agreement shall remain in full effect.
