    4. Subscription fees. Where you wish to set up a paid subscription, a certain number of days will be made available to you at no cost as a free trial period. The duration of the free trial period will be clearly communicated to you via the Cloud Services. During the free trial period, the Cloud Services will be provided to you as are, and we will not provide any guarantees or protections as to their performance or your use of them. Upon expiration of the free trial period, you will only be able to continue using the premium services if you pay the relevant fees.
