Clause 4.3 leaves the price to the Order. On this site the Order is the checkout, and what it charges is stated here so that no invoice can surprise you.
LatinoSoft is sold only to a dental practice or clinic in one of the countries that can be chosen on the order form, which are the eighteen Spanish- and Portuguese-speaking countries of Latin America (AR, BO, BR, CL, CO, CR, DO, EC, GT, HN, MX, NI, PA, PE, PY, SV, UY, VE). It is sold at €5 per practice per month, charged monthly, or at €50 per practice per year, charged yearly, excluding taxes, as the buyer chooses on the order form. The amount on each invoice is the amount of the period chosen. LatinoSoft has no plug-ins: nothing is ever added to this price.
A promotional code sets the price of the licence for a stated number of months: for those months the amount due is nil, and from the month after the last of them the ordinary subscription price for that edition, as stated above, falls due. Where no price is published above for an edition, nothing falls due for it: we cannot charge a price we have never published. The licence a code activates carries the same rights and the same obligations as one bought outright; a code changes what you pay, not what you get and not for how long you may use it.
A subscription renews automatically, for successive periods of the length stated above for your edition, until it is cancelled under clause 3.11 of the licence terms. Card payments are processed by Stripe; Stardent B.V. does not receive or store your full card number. Prices are quoted excluding VAT; VAT is added where it is due.
