If you have a fixed term and price subscription, that price will remain in force for the fixed term.

Suspension or cancellation of the Services for non-payment can result in a loss of access to and use of your account and your Content.
    6. If you subscribe and pay us through the Apple App Store or Google Play Store, the terms of Apple or Google may also apply.

    4. In case of cancellation you will continue to have access to the Services until the end of your paid subscription period. For instance: if the commencement date of your monthly subscription is 2 February and you cancel your subscription on 17 October, you will continue to have access until 2 November.
    5. Paste and Collect Pro are linked to your Maked subscription. A cancellation of this subscription means you will also lose access to Paste and Collect Pro.

    7. In case your subscription is automatically renewed for a period of more than three (3) months, you will have the right to cancel the subscription at any time after such renewal with a cancellation term of one (1) month. In case of cancellation based on this clause you may request reimbursement of part of the subscription fee. This means that you pay for the period until the cancellation enters into force, based on the standard monthly fee for the respective Service.
    8. Upon cancellation or if a payment is not successfully settled (for instance due to expiration or insufficient funds), your account will be deactivated after the end of your subscription period.

You can reactivate your subscription at any time in your account settings by making payment within four weeks after deactivation. Your subscription will then be renewed as from the day of reactivation.
    9. If you do not reactivate your subscription within the term set out above, any of your Content stored using the Service(s) and any of your information, including your personal content, settings, address book and any files stored for transfer may have been automatically and permanently deleted from our servers.
