Last Updated: 1 January 2025
1. Overview
This Refund Policy outlines the terms and conditions for refunds on Civix subscription services. We aim to ensure complete satisfaction with our Service and offer a fair refund policy for eligible circumstances.
2. Free Trial
All new municipal subscriptions include a 14-day free trial. During this period, you have full access to all features of your selected plan. No charges are made during the trial period. If you do not wish to continue, simply cancel before the trial ends and you will not be charged.
3. Cancellation
You may cancel your subscription at any time:
- Cancellation can be done through your account settings or by contacting support
- Upon cancellation, you retain access until the end of your current billing period
- No partial refunds are given for unused time within a billing period
4. Refund Eligibility
Refunds may be granted in the following circumstances:
- Cancellation within 14 days of your first payment (money-back guarantee)
- Significant service unavailability or technical issues preventing use
- Accidental duplicate payments
5. Non-Refundable Circumstances
Refunds are generally not provided for:
- Cancellations after the 14-day money-back guarantee period

8. Annual Subscriptions
For annual subscriptions, the 14-day money-back guarantee applies from the date of payment. After this period, you may cancel but will not receive a prorated refund for remaining months. We recommend starting with a monthly plan if you wish to evaluate the Service before committing annually.
9. Chargebacks
