Refund & Cancellation Policy
Key Points: You can cancel anytime; service remains active until the end of the billing cycle. Paid fees are generally non-refundable, with exceptions for new subscriptions (14-day window), service failures, and billing errors. If your subscription lapses, the account becomes suspended (read-only) and you have at least 30 days to export—your files live in your own connected storage and are never moved or deleted by us.
1. Access and Trial Periods
1.1 Invite-Only, Paid Access
4ShootOps is invite-only and paid-only; there is no free plan. Access requires an invitation or a promotional code, and every account is on a paid plan (Pro, Studio, or Studio+).
1.2 Trial Periods (If Offered)
A free trial, where offered, is a promotional (100%-off) code applied to a paid plan for a limited period—not a separate tier. The duration will be shown at signup.
- At the end of the trial, standard plan pricing applies unless you cancel beforehand
- You may cancel during the trial via your account dashboard. If a trial auto-converts and you were charged, see Section 3.2 for refund eligibility
- Trial offers are limited to one per individual or organization unless explicitly authorized
2. Subscription Cancellation
2.1 How to Cancel
- Log into your account
- Navigate to Billing Settings
- Click "Cancel Subscription"
- Confirm cancellation
2.2 When Cancellation Takes Effect
- Service continues until end of current billing period
- No automatic prorated refund for remaining time
- Access retained until cycle ends
- Data available for export for 30 days after
2.3 What Happens When You Cancel
- Your subscription stays active until the end of the current billing cycle.
- If it then lapses, the account becomes suspended (read-only): the owner can still sign in to view, export, delete, or resume the subscription, but creating and editing are disabled.
- Your files are not moved or deleted by us—they reside in your own connected storage, under your control. We retain your 4ShootOps account metadata for at least 30 days to allow export.
- Resuming (re-subscribing) restores full access to your account.

Subscription fees already paid are non-refundable. This includes recurring charges for active billing cycles.

3.3 Non-Refundable Items
The following are expressly non-refundable:
- • Subscription renewals: Fees from completed billing cycles where full service was provided
- • One-time add-ons or professional services (e.g., onboarding/setup): Unless covered by a separate written agreement
- • Charges from user error: Selecting the wrong plan, unless a goodwill exception is granted within 14 days
- • Partial month usage: No refunds for partial month usage after the 14-day grace period
Note: 4ShootOps does not host your media or charge storage/overage fees—storage is your own connected account, billed by your provider.

Enterprise customers may have custom refund terms in their written agreement, which supersede this policy.
10.3 Regulatory Rights
Nothing in this policy waives statutory consumer rights where applicable (EU withdrawal rights, Canadian consumer protection, etc.).
