6. Subscription Services (SaaS & Recurring Services)
6.1 General Terms
Subscription services are billed in advance and are non-refundable once a billing cycle begins, unless otherwise specified.
6.2 Cancellation Requirements & Notice Periods
Subscription and contract-based services may include defined notice periods (e.g., 30, 60, or 90 days) that govern cancellation eligibility.
- Cancellation requests must be submitted:
- Prior to the next billing cycle, AND
- In accordance with any applicable contractual notice period
Failure to meet required notice periods may result in:
- Automatic renewal of services
- Continued billing for the next term
6.3 Formal Cancellation Request Process
To ensure clarity, compliance, and proper documentation, MEC requires all cancellation requests to be submitted through a formal Cancellation Request process, which includes:
- Submission of a written request via MEC’s designated form or client portal
- Inclusion of:
- Service or subscription details
- Contract reference (if applicable)
- Requested termination date
- Authorized client representative information
Upon submission:
- MEC will review the request against applicable terms and agreements
- Written acknowledgment of receipt and status will be provided
- Requests will be processed in accordance with contractual obligations
This process ensures a clear audit trail and reduces the risk of missed deadlines or disputes.
6.4 Refund Eligibility for Subscriptions
Refunds for subscription services are limited and may only be considered if:
- The service has not yet been provisioned or accessed
- A billing error or duplicate charge has occurred
- MEC is unable to deliver the subscribed service
Otherwise:
- No partial refunds will be issued for unused time
- Early termination of annual or multi-year agreements does not entitle the client to a prorated refund unless agreed in writing
6.5 Contract-Based Services
For services governed by formal agreements (MSA, SOW, SLA, or subscription contracts):
- All cancellation, renewal, and refund terms are governed by the applicable agreement
- These agreements may include:
- Minimum service terms (e.g., 12, 24, or 36 months)
- Auto-renewal provisions
- Advance written notice requirements
Clients are responsible for complying with these terms.
6.6 Automated Renewal Notifications
To support transparency and informed decision-making, MEC may provide automated renewal notifications, including:
- Advance reminders at 90, 60, and 30 days prior to renewal
- Notifications aligned with contractual notice periods
However:
- Clients remain solely responsible for tracking their contractual obligations and deadlines
