TERMS · PRIVATE ALPHA DRAFT

Permanent capacity, not an eternity guarantee.

The intended commercial model is $5 per month. Each successfully paid subscription invoice grants a defined amount of permanent Vault capacity. When a subscription ends, existing deposits remain available within the service while the service operates, but new deposits require an active subscription. Refunds, disputes, or reversed payments may reverse the associated capacity grant and place new deposits on hold. Existing ciphertext is not automatically deleted for a billing problem.

THE VAULT cannot promise operation for eternity. Before public billing, final terms must describe continuity, export, discontinuation, deletion, recovery-key loss, prohibited content, statutory consumer rights, refunds, and limitations accurately. Billing is disabled during the private alpha.
