Failure of the last attempt to collect the relevant charge from the User's payment card results in the User's immediate loss of access to the paid Plan with all the consequences described in the Terms and Conditions, and the paid Plan Agreement is terminated immediately after the failure of the last attempt to collect the relevant charge from the User's payment card.
- For the avoidance of doubt, irrespective of the date on which the User's payment card is charged with the relevant payment referred to in paragraphs 16-17 above (either as part of the first or subsequent attempt), the duration of the subsequent Subscription Period shall be calculated from the date of the first payment referred to in paragraph 16 above.

§ 10. Use of the paid Plan. Validity of the paid Plan Agreement
- The Agreement for a Paid Plan is concluded for a fixed period of time, equal to the Subscription Period selected during the ordering process, immediately upon proper order placement and first payment, and with a User who is a Consumer or Quasi Consumer only if such User, during the ordering process, expressed his/her willingness to perform the Services in full before the expiration of the deadline for withdrawal from the Agreement in accordance with the Regulations.

In this case, the cancellation of access to the Paid Plan takes effect at the end of the Subscription Period for which the last payment was made, and therefore, the User has access to the Paid Plan until the end of this Subscription Period. The Agreement for the Paid Plan is terminated at the end of the Subscription Period during which the User opted out of making payments in the form of automatically renewable recurring payments. The User's failure to pay the next Subscription Period in accordance with the Regulations shall be tantamount to the User's resignation from the Paid Plan within the meaning of this Section 3, subject to § 9 Section 17 second sentence of the Regulations.
- Upon termination of the Paid Plan Agreement, the User's Account is automatically blocked with all the consequences described in the Terms and Conditions.

- The limitation of the Operator's liability, as set out in paragraph 12 above, shall not apply to a User who is a Consumer or Quasi Consumer.
