4.5 Lifetime Access

4.5.1 Definition of "Lifetime".
For any plan purchased as "Lifetime Access", "Lifetime" refers to the operational lifespan of the CertWatch service (or the specific tier/feature set offered), not the natural life of the purchaser or an indefinite period.

4.5.2 Duration & Scope.
Lifetime Access grants you access to the features included in your purchased plan tier for as long as CertWatch continues to actively operate and support the service. The plan is non-transferable, non-sublicensable, and non-resellable.

4.5.3 Service Modifications & Discontinuation.
We reserve the right to modify, update, or discontinue features, plan tiers, or the CertWatch service entirely. In the event that CertWatch permanently ceases operations or discontinues the service, your Lifetime Access will terminate automatically without further obligation or ongoing support from us.

4.5.4 Refunds.
Lifetime Access purchases are eligible for a 14-day refund period from the purchase date in accordance with Section 4.3. After 14 days, all payments are non-refundable, including in cases where you cease using the service, or where the service or plan tier is updated, modified, or discontinued as outlined in Section 4.5.3.

4.5.5 Account Limits & Fair Use.
Lifetime Access is subject to the endpoint limits and scope of the purchased tier. Sharing, reselling, or circumventing these limits violates these Terms and will result in immediate termination of access without a refund.
