It does not provide financial or product advice and does not consider your objectives, financial situation or needs.

- We may, without notice to you, temporarily suspend WeMo for any reason.
- Retirement
- The decision to retire or deprecate any features offered as part of the WeMoney Services follows a rigorous process including understanding the demand, use, impact of feature retirement and, most importantly, customer feedback. Our goal is to invest resources in areas that add the most value for the most of our customers.
- WeMoney is committed to being clear, transparent, and proactive when interacting with our customers, especially about changes to our WeMoney Services. To that end, we make our best effort to follow these guidelines when retiring functionality:
- For minor changes resulting in retirement or deprecation of functionality, we attempt to proactively notify customers at least 1 month in advance. For retirement of major features or products, we attempt to notify customers at least 3 months in advance.
- WeMoney will strive to provide viable alternatives to our customers when retiring any functionality. Where possible and appropriate, WeMoney may automatically migrates customers to alternatives for retired functionality.
- WeMoney commits to continue providing support for functionality until its retirement date.
- We may need to accelerate the timeline for retirement of functionality in extenuating circumstances, such as essential changes necessary to protect the integrity of our WeMoney Services or the security of our customers and others. In these cases, it is important that those changes occur as quickly as possible.
- Similarly, integrated third party software or services may need to be retired due to the third-party decision to change or retire their solution. In these situations, the pace of the retirement is out of our control. However, even under these circumstances, WeMoney will provide as much advance notice as possible.
- Term, termination, and suspension.
- Agreement term and termination. The agreement with respect of the Subscription will remain in effect until the expiration, termination, or renewal of your Subscription, whichever is earliest (Term).
- Subscription termination. You may terminate a Subscription at any time during its Term; however, you must pay all amounts due and owing before the termination is effective.
- A Subscription having a one-month Term may be terminated anytime and the Subscription for the following month will not be renewed. No refund will be provided for partially unused month.
- Annual Subscriptions. A Subscription having an annual Term may be terminated anytime and the Subscription for the following year will not be renewed. No refund will be provided for partially unused Term.
- Suspension. We may suspend your use of the Online Services if:
- it is reasonably needed to prevent unauthorized access to WeMoney Pro Services or any of our customer data;
- you fail to respond to a claim of alleged infringement from us within a reasonable time;

- we will give at least 7 days' notice before suspending for non-payment.

We may also terminate your Subscription if your use of the Online Services is suspended more than twice in any 12-month period.
