### Your Options:

**Within the first 30 days - Request a Refund** - If you are within the 30-day money-back guarantee period, you can self-refund your Essentials or Pro license directly from your account. Your license will expire immediately upon refund, and your paid benefits will end.

**After 30 days - Disable Auto-Renewal -** If the 30-day guarantee period has passed, you can prevent your license from renewing by disabling auto-renewal. Your license will remain active, and you will keep all benefits until your current billing period ends.

||| Signature Services licenses are non-refundable. If you have questions about your Signature Services subscription, please reach out to Orwell and our support team for assistance.
