Broadlume reserves the right to correct any errors or mistakes that the Payment Processor makes even if it has already requested or received payment.
ii. Payment Method. The terms of Dealer’s payment will be based on the Payment Method and may be determined by agreements between Dealer and the financial institution, credit card issuer or other provider of the chosen Payment Method.

CHANGES TO SUCH INFORMATION CAN BE MADE BY CONTACTING Broadlume AT BILLING@Broadlume.COM. IF DEALER FAILS TO PROVIDE ANY OF THE FOREGOING INFORMATION, DEALER AGREES THAT Broadlume MAY CONTINUE CHARGING DEALER FOR THE SERVICES UNDER THE BILLING ACCOUNT UNTIL THE APPLICABLE ORDER FORM IS TERMINATED OR EXPIRES.
v. Change in Amount Authorized. If the amount to be charged to the Billing Account varies from the amount Dealer preauthorized (other than due to the imposition or change in the amount of state sales taxes), Dealer has the right to receive, and Broadlume shall provide, notice of the amount to be charged and the date of the charge before the scheduled date of the transaction. Any agreement Dealer has with the payment provider will govern Dealer’s use of the Payment Method. Dealers agree that Broadlume may accumulate charges incurred and submit them as one or more aggregate charges during or at the end of each billing cycle.
d. Taxes and Expenses. All payments required by this Agreement are exclusive of federal, state, local and foreign taxes, duties, tariffs, levies, withholdings and similar assessments (including without limitation, sales taxes, use taxes and value added taxes), and Dealer agrees to bear and be responsible for the payment of all such charges, excluding taxes based upon Broadlume’s net income.
