2.1.2. Free Trial
Upon Customer’s request, Creaboost may provide Customer with a free trial of the Creaboost Solution for the period set by Creaboost in writing. If Customer does not agree to continue use of the Creaboost Solution through a paid Subscription as described herein, Creaboost will terminate Customer’s right to access the Creaboost Solution immediately upon the end of the free trial period.
Customer agrees that Creaboost, in its sole discretion and for any or no reason, may terminate Customer’s access to the Creaboost Solution during any free trial or any part thereof.
