5. The Plans
5.1. Boom offers various subscription plans for using its Application, Services, and Content, including free, monthly, yearly, and lifetime plans. Plan details and availability may change over time. Please visit our pricing page for plan details.
5.2. Billing and Subscriptions
Users can purchase subscriptions through our website or through an App Store (like the Mac App Store). Here’s how billing works:
Plans are available as monthly, yearly, or lifetime subscriptions. Free plans have no charges.
If the User purchases through an App Store, the App Store handles all billing and refunds related to the purchase transaction.
If the User purchases through our website, we’ll email the User a receipt and handle billing directly.
Users can cancel at any time:
For App Store purchases: cancel through the App Store's settings
For website purchases: cancel through our account settings
After canceling, Users can still access the Application and Services until their subscription period ends unless they were on a lifetime subscription in which case cancellations take effect immediately.
We don't issue refunds for cancelled subscriptions. For App Store purchases, check with the App Store about their refund policies.
We may cancel a User’s subscription with one month’s notice. If we do this we will provide a prorated refund unless the User has violated our Terms or any additional conditions. If Boom cancels a User’s lifetime subscription, the User will not receive a refund.
5.3. Renewal: All paid subscriptions (except for lifetime plans) automatically renew each month or year, depending on the plan selected. Users will receive a receipt after each renewal charge.
5.4. Subscription Commencement: A paid subscription starts when a User accepts an offer for a paid plan by making payment. Free plans commence upon account creation. The User waives any legal rights to a cooling-off period.
5.5. Plan Changes: If applicable, Users can upgrade or downgrade their plan at any time. Upgrades take effect immediately. In the event of an upgrade, the User will be immediately charged the difference between the cost of the former plan and the new plan the User has subscribed to. Downgrades take effect at the end of the current subscription period. In the event of a downgrade, the User will be charged the price of the new plan at the beginning of the next billing period. Users switching from lifetime plans will first need to cancel their plan subscription (no refunds will be provided for such cancellations) and then subscribe to their new plan of choice.
5.6. Lifetime Plans: Users who purchase a lifetime plan will have access to the Application, Services, and Content for the duration of Boom's existence, subject to the following conditions:
a) Boom reserves the right to modify, limit, or discontinue lifetime plan features at its discretion with reasonable notice to Users.
b) Lifetime plans provide perpetual access to the core features of the Application, Services, and Content as defined at the time of purchase. However, these plans do not include:
1. Features or functionality that require the use of artificial intelligence (AI) technologies;
2. Server-side processing capabilities that may incur ongoing costs to Boom;
3. Future major upgrades or new features that, in our sole opinion or discretion, significantly expand the scope of the original offering; and,
4. Any third-party integrations or services that involve recurring fees
Boom reserves the right to offer these excluded features as separate, paid add-ons to lifetime plan holders. Boom will maintain support and updates for the features included in lifetime plans for as long as the product exists, subject to reasonable technical and economic feasibility.
c) Boom will provide support for lifetime plans only on the most current version of the Application, Services, and Content.
d) If Boom discontinues the product or service associated with the lifetime plan, it will provide Users with at least 90 days' notice. No refunds will be provided in this case.
e) The transfer or resale of lifetime plans is prohibited unless explicitly authorized by Boom.
h) Boom reserves the right to impose reasonable restrictions on the use of lifetime plans to prevent abuse or excessive use that may negatively impact service quality for other Users.
5.7. No Cooling-off Period: Users waive any legal rights to a cooling-off period for subscriptions (new or renewal).
5.8. Fees and Changes: Boom lists the fees for its various plans and services on its website, including sales tax, if applicable, and can change these fees at any time.
