## 1. Overview

1.1 MyFinalVideo is a post-mortem video dispatch platform that sells access to its features through **one-time lifetime payment plans**. There are no recurring subscriptions, monthly fees, or auto-renewal charges. The two paid plans are:

| Plan | Price | Access |
|---|---|---|
| **Essential** | USD $20 (one-time) | Lifetime access; 3 videos; max 3 recipients per video |
| **Family** | USD $60 (one-time) | Lifetime access; owner + 3 sub-accounts; each member: 3 videos, 3 recipients per video |

1.2 Because MyFinalVideo charges a single one-time payment for lifetime access — and because the service is digital in nature — the refund and cancellation rules in this policy are structured around applicable consumer protection law, including:

- **EU Consumer Rights Directive (2011/83/EU)**, specifically Articles 9–16 (right of withdrawal for digital services).
- **UK Consumer Contracts (Information, Cancellation and Additional Charges) Regulations 2013.**
- **Turkish Consumer Protection Law (No. 6502)** and the Distance Contracts Regulation.

1.3 Payments are processed by **Dodo Payments, Inc. (operating as Dodo Payments)** as Merchant of Record. MyFinalVideo does not accept cryptocurrency. Refunds are returned through Dodo Payments to the original payment method. MyFinalVideo does not process refunds through any other channel.

## 2. 14-Day Money-Back Guarantee

### 2.1 Right of Withdrawal

Consumers in the European Union and the United Kingdom have a statutory right of withdrawal from distance contracts for digital services. MyFinalVideo extends this right to **all purchasers worldwide** as a matter of policy, regardless of jurisdiction.

You are entitled to a **full 100% refund** of the purchase price if you submit a valid refund request within **14 calendar days** of the date of purchase. The 14-day period begins on the date your payment is confirmed and your account is upgraded (the "Purchase Date"), as recorded by the payment provider (Dodo Payments) and MyFinalVideo's systems.

### 2.2 How to Request a Refund

To request a refund within the 14-day guarantee period:

1. **Send an email** to support@myfinalvideo.com with the subject line: "Refund Request — [Your Registered Email Address]"
2. The email **must be sent from the email address registered to your MyFinalVideo account.** Refund requests sent from a different address will not be processed and cannot be validated.
3. Include in the body of your email:
   - Your registered email address.
   - The date of purchase.
   - The plan purchased (Essential or Family).
   - A brief statement that you wish to withdraw from the contract and receive a refund.

No reason is required for a refund request within the 14-day period.

### 2.3 Validation and Processing

Upon receipt of your refund request, MyFinalVideo will:

1. **Validate the timestamp** of your request against the Purchase Date recorded by the payment provider. Requests received more than 14 calendar days after the Purchase Date (by email server timestamp) are outside the guarantee window and will not be processed under this section.
2. Confirm that the requesting email address matches the registered account.
3. Initiate a full refund through Dodo Payments within **2 business days** of validation.

**Processing time (card):** Once initiated by MyFinalVideo, Dodo Payments processes the refund within **5–10 business days**, depending on your card issuer or payment provider. MyFinalVideo does not control the time your bank or payment provider takes to credit the funds to your account.

### 2.4 Refund Amount

The refund is **100% of the purchase price paid**, with no deduction for platform usage during the 14-day period (videos uploaded, check-in flows configured, etc.).

Refunds outside the 14-day guarantee (sections 3–5) follow the same method rules.

## 3. What Happens to Your Account After a Refund

### 3.1 Downgrade to Free Trial Status

Upon confirmation of a refund, your account is **immediately downgraded to Free Trial tier**. The Free Trial tier provides:

- 1 video slot
- Maximum 3 recipients per video
- Active dispatch monitoring for the duration of the trial

The Free Trial tier activated following a refund **does not carry a new 14-day trial period.** The refunded account operates under Free Trial limits but without a timer-based trial expiry being restarted.

### 3.2 Essential Plan: Additional Videos Locked

If you purchased an Essential plan and uploaded more than 1 video before requesting a refund:

- Your **first video** (the earliest uploaded, by timestamp) remains accessible and active.
- All additional videos beyond the first are **locked** (not deleted). You can view their titles in your dashboard but cannot edit, play, or dispatch them.
- Locked videos will be permanently deleted if your account subsequently expires or is closed.
- To regain access to locked videos, you must re-purchase a paid plan.

### 3.3 Family Plan: Sub-Accounts Locked

If you purchased a Family plan and a refund is processed:

- **All three sub-accounts** associated with the Family plan are **immediately locked and disabled.**
- Sub-account holders lose the ability to log in, access videos, or modify their configuration.
- Sub-account data (videos, recipients, emergency contacts) is **not deleted** upon locking but is inaccessible until the Family plan is re-purchased.
- The owner account reverts to Free Trial tier limits (1 video, 3 recipients).

MyFinalVideo recommends that Family plan owners notify their sub-account holders if they intend to request a refund, as the sub-account lockout is immediate and automatic upon refund confirmation.

### 3.4 Trial Period Does Not Restart

A refund of a paid plan does **not** restart or extend any free trial period. If you previously used a 14-day Free Trial before upgrading to a paid plan, your refund returns you to Free Trial status but the 14-day trial clock does not reset. Your account remains active subject to Free Trial limits, with no automatic expiry triggered solely by the refund event.

## 4. Refund Exclusions

### 4.1 Requests After the 14-Day Window

Refund requests received more than **14 calendar days** after the Purchase Date are not eligible for a refund under this policy. The Purchase Date is the date the Dodo Payments payment was confirmed, as recorded in MyFinalVideo's Dodo Payments integration. MyFinalVideo does not grant discretionary exceptions to the 14-day rule except where required by mandatory applicable law.

### 4.2 Accounts Terminated for AUP or Terms of Service Violations

Accounts that have been terminated — in whole or in part — due to a violation of the MyFinalVideo Acceptable Use Policy or Terms of Service are **not eligible for any refund**, regardless of whether the termination occurs within or outside the 14-day window. This includes:

- Accounts terminated for uploading prohibited content.
- Accounts terminated for fraudulent registration or misrepresentation.
- Accounts terminated for circumventing plan limits or attempting unauthorised access.

No refund will be issued in connection with a terminated account. Any pending refund request from such an account will be voided upon termination.

### 4.3 Chargebacks and Payment Disputes

If you initiate a chargeback or payment dispute through your bank or card provider without first contacting MyFinalVideo at support@myfinalvideo.com and allowing at least 5 business days for us to resolve the issue:

- Your account will be **immediately flagged** and access may be suspended pending resolution.
- MyFinalVideo reserves the right to **contest the chargeback** with Dodo Payments by submitting evidence of service delivery, account activity logs, and this Refund Policy as documentation.
- A successfully contested chargeback may result in account termination and a permanent ban from re-registration.

MyFinalVideo's preference is always to resolve billing disputes directly and promptly. Please contact us before initiating a chargeback — we will process eligible refund requests under Section 2 without requiring a formal dispute.

## 5. Voluntary Account Deletion

### 5.1 Right to Delete

Any registered user may request permanent deletion of their MyFinalVideo account at any time, regardless of their plan tier. Account deletion can be initiated:

- Via the account settings page within the MyFinalVideo dashboard.
- By emailing support@myfinalvideo.com with a deletion request from the registered account email address.

### 5.2 Effect of Deletion

Account deletion requests a storage-first, retryable purge. Video metadata and linked records remain until required storage deletion succeeds; outstanding signed upload URLs can delay completion. Account removal also covers associated refresh sessions and consent events and can queue linked-account cleanup. Other audit, trust, payment, provider and backup records have separate retention requirements and are not all removed by this job.

Cloud soft-delete and backups can delay physical removal. Browser drafts and downloaded recipient copies require separate handling. Treat deletion as an irreversible user action, but do not interpret a request as proof every physical copy has already vanished. See the [retention policy](/legal/retention) for the current boundaries.


### 5.3 No Refund for Voluntary Deletion

Voluntary account deletion does **not** entitle you to a refund of amounts previously paid, except where the deletion is requested within the 14-day refund window under Section 2 and the deletion request explicitly includes a refund request.

The Essential and Family plans provide **lifetime access** to the platform. "Lifetime" means for the lifetime of your account — not a guaranteed minimum period. The entire purchase price is considered earned and consumed at the point of payment, subject to the plan limits and service terms. This draft must be reviewed against mandatory consumer rights before publication. Choosing to voluntarily delete your account before making use of all plan features does not constitute an entitlement to a pro-rated or full refund.

### 5.4 Post-Deletion Identifiers

The former two-year deleted-email hash registry and automatic trial re-registration restriction are not evidenced in the inspected implementation. This draft does not promise that mechanism. Existing security and payment-reference hashes serve other purposes and must not be treated as anonymous or exempt from retention review.


## 6. Free Trial Expiry

### 6.1 No Charge on Trial Expiry

MyFinalVideo's Free Trial lasts **14 days** from account registration. There is **no charge** when the Free Trial expires. MyFinalVideo does not store payment information during the Free Trial and does not auto-bill trial users.

### 6.2 Data Retention After Trial Expiry

The revised pruner evaluates eligible trial accounts 180 days after trial expiry and uses the same retryable account cleanup. This is not a promise of continued paid functionality during that period or immediate physical erasure on that date. No implemented seven-day warning email or 30-day deletion schedule is established by this draft; email activation is deferred. See the [retention policy](/legal/retention).


### 6.3 Email Re-use

No two-year email/alias block or guaranteed same-email paid-registration exception was found in the inspected application paths. Any future abuse-prevention restriction requires a defined implementation, accurate notice and retention review before being presented as active behavior.


## 7. Billing Disputes

7.1 If you believe you have been charged in error, or if you have any question about a payment taken by MyFinalVideo, please contact us **before initiating a chargeback or payment dispute** with your bank:

**Email:** support@myfinalvideo.com  
**Subject:** "Billing Query — [Your Registered Email Address]"

7.2 MyFinalVideo will acknowledge billing queries within **2 business days** and will resolve eligible issues — including confirmed erroneous charges — within **5 business days** of confirmation.

7.3 Dodo Payments transaction receipts are available in your Dodo Payments payment confirmation email. If you need a copy of a payment receipt for accounting or tax purposes, please contact us and we will assist you in retrieving it.

7.4 Financial-record retention depends on the actual operator, applicable obligations and provider agreement. A universal seven-year period and automated expiry were not verified; the published schedule must be supported by the actual requirements and implementation.

## 8. Currency and Regional Pricing

8.1 All MyFinalVideo prices are listed in **US Dollars (USD)**. Dodo Payments handles currency conversion where your card is denominated in a different currency. The converted amount you are charged may vary slightly from the listed USD price depending on your bank's exchange rate and any applicable foreign transaction fees. MyFinalVideo is not responsible for exchange rate fluctuations or bank fees.

8.2 MyFinalVideo accepts the card and local payment methods supported by Dodo Payments. Cryptocurrency is not accepted.
