If any amount owing by Customer is 30 days or more overdue, Company may, without limiting its other rights and remedies and without incurring any liabilities therefrom, suspend access to the Platform, the Services and Support until such amounts are paid in full, provided Company has given Customer at least 10 days’ prior notice that its account is overdue.
