Hello,

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We understand your concerns and would like to provide some clarification. Our platform offers two types of accounts: basic access and full access.

The basic access account is designed to allow users to explore our builder and try out its features before committing to a purchase. With this account, you can freely use the builder and create your documents. However, it's important to note that the basic access account only allows you to download a plain text version of your document, and it does not include our premium features.

On the other hand, we offer a full access account for a small fee. This account provides a comprehensive set of features, including the ability to print, email, or download your documents using our copyrighted templates. With the full access account, you'll have a 14-day window to utilize these advanced features to enhance your document creation process. In the event the account is not canceled during the first 14 days, the subscription renews to our monthly access.

To avoid any misunderstanding, this information is provided before, during, and after the subscription is bought. We also provide this information in the welcoming email sent after the purchase.

We continuously strive to improve our website and provide a seamless user experience. If you have any further questions or concerns, please don't hesitate to reach out to our support team.
