Certain of parts of the Service may be subject to payments now and in the future (the “Subscription Service(s)”). Please see our FAQ at www.downdogapp.com/faq for a description of the current Subscription Services. Yoga Buddhi makes no guarantee that it will continue providing any of the specific services listed on its FAQ or on its in-App payment screen throughout the term of your subscription. It is possible that certain items from the Subscription Services will become free features, or that they will be removed from the App entirely. We may also add new items to the Subscription Services throughout your subscription term. Please note that any payment terms presented to you in the process of using or signing up for a Subscription Service are deemed part of this Agreement. In our continued assessment of the Subscription Services, we may from time to time, with respect to any or all of our users, experiment with or otherwise offer certain features or other elements of the Services, including promotional features, user interfaces, plans, pricing, and advertisements. You acknowledge that Yoga Buddhi Co. may do so in Yoga Buddhi Co.’s sole discretion at any time without notice. You also agree that Yoga Buddhi Co. will not be liable to you for any modification, suspension, or discontinuance of the Services, although if you subscribe to the Subscription Services and Yoga Buddhi Co. suspends or discontinues your subscription to the Subscription Services, Yoga Buddhi Co. may, in its sole discretion, provide you with a credit, refund, discount or other form of consideration (for example, we may credit additional days of service to your account). However, if Yoga Buddhi Co. terminates your account or suspends or discontinues your access to Services due to your violation of these Terms, then you will not be eligible for any such credit, refund, discount or other consideration.

Refunds cannot be claimed for any partial subscription period.
You agree to promptly notify Yoga Buddhi of any changes to the Payment Method you provided while any subscriptions remain outstanding. You are responsible for all applicable fees and charges incurred, including applicable taxes, and all subscriptions purchased by you.

The processing of payments or credits, as applicable, in connection with your use of the Service will be subject to the terms, conditions and privacy policies of the Payment Processor and your credit card issuer in addition to these Terms. Yoga Buddhi is not responsible for any errors by the Payment Processor. In connection with your use of the Service, Yoga Buddhi will obtain certain transaction details, which Yoga Buddhi will use solely in accordance with its Privacy Policy.
Our obligation to provide a Subscription Service only comes into being when we take receipt of your order.

If payment is not received by us from the Payment Method you provided, you agree to pay all amounts due upon demand by us.
