Annex is governed by a three-party agreement. A three-party agreement is one of the most effective strategies to protect the interests of all parties in a commercial transaction. The Annex Terms of Service outlines the rights and responsibilities amongst a service Provider (as the Seller), an End User (as the Customer), and Annex as the marketplace facilitator. It defines each party's obligations throughout the various stages of a transaction and throughout the business relationship. 

Using Annex to find the right service provider is free. You will only be charged for services once you select a service provider and complete the checkout process. Billing is monthly. All costs incurred via confirmed storage and service activity over the previous 30 days are billed before the 15th of each month. Annex accepts all major credit cards.

Both Annex and the Service Provider share responsibility for customer service. Annex is responsible for facilitating the initial purchase transaction as well as billing, invoicing and payments. Order servicing and fulfillment along with most other operational obligations and communications are the responsibility of the service provider. However, Annex may step into the conversations as needed. 

The initial term is one year and automatically renews for additional one year periods unless any party notifies the other parties of its intention not to renew within 30 days of the expiration of the current 1-year term.
