11. Termination Terms and Refund Policy

11.1.  Monthly subscription plans: Account holders on monthly plans may cancel their account at any time. As no refunds will be provided for the unused portion of a monthly subscription, it is your responsibility to ensure that you cancel your subscription prior to the start of the next month’s billing cycle if you do not wish to be billed for that month. Notification of cancellation must be made to us in writing, either by letter or by email, or online through our billing system, in order to be valid. Cancellation shall be effective on the date that we receive your notification of cancellation. You understand and agree that refunds, if any, are at our sole, exclusive discretion, and that you are not otherwise entitled to any refunds under this plan.

11.2.  Annual subscription plans: Account holders on annual plans may cancel their account at any time. Cancellations on these accounts performed with the “cancellation” button/feature on the StarVPN website will allow the account to remain active for the remainder of the term that the account holder had already paid. For example, if an account holder pays for an Annual subscription on January 15^th, and cancels on February 1^st will remain active through January 14^th the following year.

Partial refunds will only be issued to account holders who voluntarily cancel their annual subscription under the following circumstances:

1. Customer service must be notified that you would like to cancel the account at [email protected], and
2. Notification must be made within the first thirty (3) days after purchase.

Thereafter, all annual subscriptions are non-refundable.
