4. Subscription Plans and Payment
The Service is offered on a subscription basis. Pricing, features, and billing cycles are described on the Idotoo website and may be updated from time to time with reasonable notice.
All amounts are quoted in South African Rand (ZAR) and are inclusive of VAT where applicable. Payment is processed securely through our authorised payment gateway. Idotoo does not store card or banking details.
5. Cancellation Policy
5.1 Cancellation by the User
You may cancel your subscription at any time through your account settings or by contacting support@idotoo.co.za. Cancellations take effect at the end of the current billing period. You will retain access to the Service until that date.
Cancellation does not automatically entitle you to a refund. Please refer to the Refund Policy in Section 6 for applicable refund circumstances.
5.2 Immediate Cancellation
If you require immediate cancellation (e.g. due to unauthorised account activity), please contact support@idotoo.co.za. Idotoo will endeavour to action such requests within one (1) Business Day. Access will be suspended promptly upon verification.
5.3 Cancellation by Idotoo
Idotoo reserves the right to suspend or cancel your access with immediate effect if you:
- Breach any provision of these Terms;
- Provide false, misleading, or fraudulent information;
- Use the Service in a manner that is unlawful or harmful to others; or
- Fail to pay any amount due within the required period.
Where Idotoo cancels your subscription without cause, a pro-rata refund of any prepaid amounts will be issued.
5.4 Effect of Cancellation
Upon cancellation, your account data will be retained for 30 days, after which it may be permanently deleted in accordance with our Privacy Policy. Exported reports that you have downloaded prior to cancellation will remain accessible to you.
