5.4 Suspension, technical improvement and maintenance: From time to time, Pedius may need to perform maintenance on or upgrade the Software, Products or Pedius Websites or the underlying infrastructure that enables you to use the Software, Products or Pedius Websites.

As a result of such changes, you may need to use an upgraded version of the Software. In addition, you acknowledge and agree that certain Products may be subject to usage limits or geographical restrictions, which may vary from time to time. Please check the Pedius Website for details of the most up-to-date usage restrictions that apply to the Products that you are using.
