You shall pay ObservIQ (or Authorized Reseller) the amounts specified in each Order within thirty (30) days of the date of each ObservIQ (or Authorized Reseller) invoice unless otherwise specified in the Order. All amounts shall be paid in U.S. dollars and shall be fully earned when paid and non-refundable. You must assert any payment dispute in writing within ten (10) days of Your receipt of the invoice giving rise to the dispute. ObservIQ will not exercise its termination rights or apply interest on late payments if You dispute the applicable charges reasonably and in good faith and provide reasonable cooperation to resolve the dispute. Except in the event of such good faith disputes, all unpaid invoices past due are subject to a late charge equal to the lesser of 1.5% per month or the maximum interest allowed by law.

4.4. Payment Methods. If You pay using a credit card or any digital payment method supported by ObservIQ, You authorize ObservIQ to charge Your account for the Software using that payment method. You must keep all information in Your billing account current to ensure that all amounts are charged to the appropriate account and are timely paid.
4.5. Taxes. All fees and amounts set forth in the Orders are exclusive of taxes, levies, duties or charges imposed by government authorities (collectively, “Taxes”). You shall be solely responsible for all sales, service, value-added, use, excise, consumption and any other Taxes on amounts payable by You under the Orders and this EULA (other than any Taxes on ObservIQ’s income). If You are required to deduct or withhold any Tax under applicable law, You must pay the amount deducted or withheld as required by applicable law and pay ObservIQ an additional amount so that ObservIQ receives payment in full of amounts due under the Order as if there were no deduction or withholding.
4.6. Overage Policy. Our pricing is based on the volume of data ingested, measured in TB per day. Your license allows for a specified daily average ingestion over each monthly billing period. This model provides flexibility for usage spikes, as long as your monthly average remains within your license limit. If your usage exceeds your licensed limit, you will be charged for the overage at your current rate. This ensures a straightforward and consistent approach to billing, regardless of the extent of the overage. We provide tools to help you monitor your usage and will provide regular usage reports. For self-hosted deployments, usage audits may be required on a regular basis. Any overages identified during these audits will be invoiced accordingly. We are committed to transparent pricing and will work with you to ensure you have the most cost-effective solution for your needs. If you consistently exceed your current license limit, we recommend discussing an upgrade to a higher tier to better suit your usage patterns. - RECORDS AND AUDIT. During the Term for Software and for two (2) years after its expiration or termination, You will maintain accurate records of Your use of the Software sufficient to show compliance with the terms of this EULA. observIQ will have the right to audit Your use of the Software to confirm compliance with the terms of this EULA. That audit is subject to reasonable notice by observIQ and will not unreasonably interfere with Your business activities. observIQ may conduct no more than one (1) audit in any twelve (12) month period, and only during normal business hours. You will reasonably cooperate with observIQ and any third party auditor and will, without prejudice to other rights of observIQ, address any non-compliance identified by the audit by promptly paying additional fees. You will promptly reimburse observIQ for all reasonable costs of the audit if the audit reveals either underpayment of more than five (5%) percent of the Software fees payable by You for the period audited, or if You have materially failed to maintain accurate records of Software use.
