What it is

Subscriptions to Fly.io features automatically renew monthly at the then-current fee rates unless the customer takes affirmative steps to opt out as described in Section 9.2.

ConductAtlas Analysis

Why it matters (compliance & governance perspective)

This provision requires customers to take affirmative action to prevent automatic renewal at rates that may differ from the original subscription price, creating ongoing financial exposure if not actively managed.

Interpretive note: Section 9.2 describes termination by written notice rather than a specific opt-out mechanism, creating ambiguity about the precise procedure for opting out of auto-renewal as referenced in the auto-renewal clause.

Consumer impact (what this means for users)

The agreement establishes that subscriptions renew automatically at Fly.io's then-current rates, which may differ from the rate at the time of initial subscription. Customers who do not follow the opt-out process in Section 9.2 will be billed for the renewed term.

What you can do

⚠️ These actions may provide transparency or partial mitigation but may not fully address the underlying issue. Effectiveness varies by jurisdiction and individual circumstances.
  • Cancel Subscription
    Send written notice of termination to legal@fly.io before the end of the current subscription term. The agreement states termination is effective at the end of the then-current Subscription Term.
