3. Your Account
When you create an account with us, you are responsible for keeping your login credentials secure. You must not share your password with anyone or allow others to access your account.
You agree to notify us immediately at hello@financebee.co.uk if you suspect any unauthorised access to your account. We will not be liable for any loss or damage arising from your failure to keep your account secure.
We reserve the right to suspend or terminate your account if we believe it is being used in breach of these Terms.
4. Free Trial and Paid Subscriptions
We offer a free trial so you can explore the service before committing to a paid plan. The details of any applicable trial period, including its duration and limitations, will be made clear at the point of sign-up.
After your free trial ends, continued use of the service requires a paid subscription. Subscription fees are billed in advance on a monthly or annual basis, depending on the plan you choose. All prices are displayed in pounds sterling (GBP) and include VAT where applicable.
You may cancel your subscription at any time. Cancellation will take effect at the end of your current billing period, and you will not be charged again after that date. We do not offer refunds for any unused portion of a subscription period unless required by law.
