  1. “Subscription” means a subscription for a fee to access specific Services pursuant to a separate agreement, order, quote or other agreement with Airthings. 
  2. The agreed fees for the Subscriptions will be invoiced to Partner or Customer (or prepaid by Partner or Customer) in advance of commencing the Services for a minimum of twelve months and shall automatically renew (and be invoiced or prepaid) for consecutive twelve-month periods unless written notice of non-renewal is given to Airthings no later than ninety days prior to their expiration.
