Overdue Payments
3.7 Any payment not received from the Customer by the relevant due date will accrue interest at the rate of four percent (4%) of the outstanding balance per month above the Bank of England base rate from time to time, from the date such payment was due until the date the overdue amount is paid. The Customer shall pay the interest together with the overdue amount.
3.8 If the Customer fails to make payment on or before the date on which payment is due, any undisputed LeaseData Fees, or other fees payable in accordance with the Service Level Agreement, LeaseData may from time to time charge a late fee (in addition to interest) of:

If LeaseData has the legal obligation to pay or collect Taxes for which the Customer is responsible under this Clause, LeaseData will invoice the Customer and the Customer will pay that amount unless the Customer provides LeaseData with a valid tax exemption certificate authorised by the appropriate taxing authority. For the avoidance of doubt, LeaseData is solely responsible for taxes assessable against it based on its income, property and employees.
3.11 All fees payable to LeaseData under their Service Level Agreement are net amounts and are payable in full, without deduction for taxes or duties of any kind and the Customer will be responsible for, and will promptly pay, all taxes and duties of any kind (including but not limited to sales, use and withholding taxes) associated with this agreement or Customer’s receipt or use of the Services, except for taxes based on LeaseData net income. In the event that LeaseData is required to collect any tax for which its Customer is responsible (including but not limited to, Sales Tax, VAT, GST), the Customer will be liable to pay such tax directly to LeaseData. If Customer pays any withholding taxes that are required to be paid under applicable law, the Customer will pay these directly to taxing authorities above fees due to LeaseData, but not net against any invoices due to LeaseData. Customers will furnish LeaseData with written documentation of all such tax payments, including receipts (if requested by LeaseData in writing).
Account Usage Verification
3.12 LeaseData may monitor the usage of the Service on its hosted servers to validate the number of subscriptions and/or purchases made through the Service by the Customer and/or its Authorised User.
