We may reject, disable, or remove domain names that we determine, at our sole discretion, to be misleading, infringing, or otherwise inappropriate. Domain names that impersonate or create confusion with established brands, services, or government entities are strictly prohibited.

You may cancel your subscription at any time through the billing portal; cancellation takes effect at the end of the current billing period. We do not offer refunds for partial billing periods.

We reserve the right to change pricing at any time. Price changes for existing subscribers will take effect at the start of the next billing cycle after 30 days' notice.

If you exceed your plan's included bandwidth, overage charges will be applied at the rate specified for your plan. Free and Hobbyist plans have hard bandwidth caps with no overage option.

You are solely responsible for all content, data, and traffic that passes through your tunnels. We do not monitor, review, or assume any responsibility for the content of your tunneled traffic.
