    7.4 Unless otherwise expressly agreed by the User, the term of the service purchased will be for only one non-recurring period as selected by the User.

    8. Term and Termination.

    8.1 This Agreement shall commence as of the date set forth in the first Subscription or the beginning of a free trial, if earlier, and, unless earlier terminated as set forth below, shall remain in effect through the end of the Subscription Term in any current Subscription (or the end of the free trial if no purchased subscription is ordered).

    8.2 In the event of a material breach by either party, the non-breaching party shall have the right to terminate the applicable Subscription for cause if such breach has not been cured within 30 days of written notice from the non-breaching party specifying the breach in detail. If ZeveraHost terminates the Subscription for User’s material breach, all fees set forth are immediately due and payable.

    8.3 Upon any termination or expiration of a Subscription, User’s right to access and use the Services covered by that Subscription shall terminate. Notwithstanding the foregoing, at User’s request if received within 30 days of termination of the Subscription, ZeveraHost will permit User to access the Services solely to the extent necessary for User to retrieve a file of User Data then in ZeveraHost’s possession. User acknowledges and agrees that ZeveraHost has no obligation to retain User Data and that ZeveraHost will have the right to irretrievably delete and destroy User Data after 30 days following the termination of this Agreement.
