Plans have different limits and fees; billing terms depend on whether Amazon or a third party bills you
The Services may offer plans with different limits and fees (each a "Service Plan"). If you sign up through Amazon and Amazon bills you, the billing terms in Section 2 of these terms (Service Plans, sections 2.1 to 2.5) apply to your plan. If you signed up through a third party and are not billed directly by Amazon, the third party's billing terms apply instead.

Some free trials convert to a paid plan at the regular price and charge your card unless you cancel
Amazon may offer trial or promotional Service Plans ("Trial Plans"). Some Trial Plans automatically convert to a paid Service Plan at its regular price at the end of the trial or promotional period unless you choose not to upgrade. For a Trial Plan that automatically upgrades, Amazon will charge the payment method you gave at sign-up (or, if that method is invalid, another eligible payment method on record) at the end of the trial unless you cancel. Trial Plans are subject to the Agreement except as the offer states otherwise, and may carry extra terms described in the offer.

Plan fees and features can change, and Amazon picks the renewal plan closest to yours
Service Plan fees and features may change over time. When your plan renews, the renewal plan is the one Amazon chooses as closest to your current Service Plan. Section 6.2 limits fee changes during a term: an increase in fees does not affect the cost of your Service Plan during its term.

Qualifications & exceptions
Fee increases do not change the cost of a plan during its current term (Section 6.2); they can apply at renewal.

Cross-references
contrast (model-proposed): Amazon accepts no liability for loss, damage or misuse of your files, or for service changes and termination — contrast: Section 5.1 promises a prorated refund if Amazon discontinues the Services, while Section 6.5(c) disclaims any liability for consequences of changes, suspensions or termination of the Services. Read together, the discontinuation refund is a specific promise that sits alongside the general liability exclusion; the source does not say which controls if they conflict.
