ConductAtlas Analysis

Why it matters (compliance & governance perspective)

The 30-day advance notice and cancellation opportunity give users a defined window to exit their subscription before being subject to new pricing.

Interpretive note: The canonical claim captures two closely linked but independent propositions—notice and cancellation opportunity—that are stated together in the excerpt as a single coordinated commitment; the cancellation opportunity is recorded in omitted_material for completeness.
