If the Professional Services are not completed at the end of the term set forth in the Order Form due to our failure to make the necessary resources available to you or to perform our obligations, the term will automatically be extended to allow us to complete such Professional Services. We might provide some or all elements of the Professional Services through third-party service providers. Professional Services are non-cancellable, and all Professional Services Fees are non-refundable.
