refund_policy

last updated: january 2025
tl;dr

30-day money-back guarantee on first pro subscription.

email [email protected] with "refund" in subject.

no bullshit. no questions. just refund.

> 30_day_guarantee

not satisfied with pro? we offer a full refund within 30 days of your first subscription payment.

no questions asked. no hoops to jump through. no "talk to retention team" bullshit.

we're building a tool to fight censorship, not trapping people in subscriptions.

> how_to_request

email us at [email protected] with:

subject: refund request
body:
- your account email
- order id (optional, helps us process faster)
- reason for refund (optional, helps us improve)

we'll process your refund within 5-10 business days.

note: refunds go back to original payment method. allow 5-10 days for your bank to process.

> what_is_refundable

[+] refundable:

  • • first pro subscription payment (monthly or annual)
  • • within 30 days of initial charge
  • • one refund per user lifetime

[-] not refundable:

  • • subscription renewals (you can cancel before renewal)
  • • research contribution (there's no charge)
  • • accounts suspended for abuse
  • • second+ subscriptions (one refund per user)
  • • grandfathered accounts (you didn't pay anything)
> cancellation_policy

you can cancel your pro subscription anytime from your account dashboard or stripe billing portal.

when you cancel:

  • • you keep pro access until end of billing period
  • • no partial refunds for unused time
  • • you return to standard access automatically
  • • your configs/sessions remain intact

cancel before renewal = no charge. cancel after renewal = no refund (but you can still use it for that month/year).

> abuse_prevention

we trust users, but we're not idiots. refund abuse = permanent ban.

examples of abuse:

  • • repeated subscribe → refund cycles
  • • downloading tbs of data then requesting refund
  • • creating multiple accounts for multiple refunds
  • • chargeback fraud (dispute after receiving service)

abuse = instant account termination + no refund + ban from future use.

> chargebacks

if you dispute a charge with your bank (chargeback) instead of requesting a refund from us:

  • • your account is immediately suspended
  • • we contest the chargeback with evidence
  • • you're banned from future use

just email us first. chargebacks cost us $15+ in fees and create legal headaches.

we're not a faceless corporation. we respond to refund requests within 24-48 hours.

> contact

questions about refunds or billing?

  • • email: [email protected]
  • • subject: "refund question" or "billing issue"
  • • response time: 24-48 hours

pro users get priority support. we respond faster.

// radical_honesty

we're not a typical vpn company. we're a research project that needs to pay for servers.

if pro doesn't work for you, we'd rather give you a refund than keep your money under false pretenses.

the mission is fighting censorship, not extracting maximum revenue.

research tools are accessible to all. optional support helps fund infrastructure. refunds exist because we're not assholes.
