FREE TRIALS

We offer a 14-day free trial of the Service. During a free trial:

  • Check
    No payment method is required to start a trial — you are not asked for a card and you are not charged
  • Check
    The trial gives you access to Autopilot plan features for 14 days from the day you create your account
  • Check
    We will not automatically convert your trial into a paid subscription. Nothing is charged unless you choose a plan and enter payment details yourself
  • Check
    When the 14 days end, access to the Service stops until you choose a plan
  • Check
    Your data is not deleted when a trial ends. It is retained under the Data Retention and Deletion section below, and becomes available again as soon as you subscribe
  • Check
    Free trials are available to new customers only — one free trial per business
  • Check
    We reserve the right to determine trial eligibility at our sole discretion, and to modify or discontinue free trial offers at any time without notice

PAYMENT AND BILLING

All fees are in US dollars and are non-refundable except as expressly stated in our Refund Policy:

  • Check
    Subscription fees are billed monthly in advance on the date your paid subscription begins
  • Check
    Payments are processed by Stripe — by providing your payment information you authorize us to charge your payment method for all fees incurred
  • Check
    If a payment fails we will attempt to process the charge again — if payment continues to fail your account may be suspended or terminated
  • Check
    You remain responsible for all unpaid amounts
  • Check
    We reserve the right to change our pricing with 30 days advance notice to existing customers
  • Check
    Continued use of the Service after a price change constitutes acceptance of the new pricing
  • Check
    You are responsible for all applicable taxes associated with your use of the Service

CANCELLATION

You may cancel your subscription at any time:

  • Check
    Cancel by contacting us at support@contractorautopilot.ai or through your account dashboard
  • Check
    Upon cancellation your Service will remain active until the end of your current billing period
  • Check
    After that date your access to the Service will be terminated, and any website we host for you will be taken offline
  • Check
    We do not provide prorated refunds for partial months except as stated in our Refund Policy
  • Check
    We do not delete your data when you cancel. It is archived so that you can return to the same account later, and is retained and then deleted on the schedule set out in the Data Retention and Deletion section below
  • Check
    You may request an export of your data at any time while it is retained

DATA RETENTION AND DELETION

We keep your data only as long as there is a reason to keep it. When an account is canceled, terminated, or a trial ends without a subscription, the following schedule applies and is carried out automatically:

  • Check
    OPERATING DATA — contacts, jobs, quotes, appointments, calls, text messages, emails, photos, documents, and website content are retained for 12 months from the date the account is canceled or the trial ends, then permanently deleted
  • Check
    CALL RECORDINGS — audio recordings of phone calls are deleted 90 days after the call, on an automatic daily job, whether or not the account is active. The written transcript, summary, and call details are kept under the operating-data schedule above, so the record of what was said remains available to you after the audio is gone
  • Check
    WHY 12 MONTHS — contracting is seasonal. A contractor who leaves in the fall and returns in the spring should find their customer list and job history intact rather than starting over
  • Check
    FINANCIAL RECORDS — invoices, payments, and expense records are retained for 7 years, which is the period we and our customers may be required to produce records for tax purposes, then permanently deleted
  • Check
    HOSTED WEBSITES — taken offline at cancellation; the underlying content is held for the 12-month period above so the site can be restored if you return
  • Check
    REACTIVATION — if you subscribe again within the 12-month window, your data is restored to your account
  • Check
    AUTOMATIC DELETION — deletion runs on a scheduled daily job, not on request. Once a record passes its retention period it is deleted whether or not anyone asks
  • Check
    BACKUPS — deleted data may persist in encrypted backups for a short period after deletion before those backups age out
  • Check
    AGGREGATE DATA — we may keep anonymized, aggregated statistics that cannot identify you or your customers

You may request an export or an earlier deletion of your data at any time by emailing support@contractorautopilot.ai. Requests for deletion are honored except where we are required by law to keep a record, such as financial records within the seven-year period described above.
