Aircraft Listing and Planedock Pro Membership Terms

Monthly aircraft listings and Planedock Pro memberships ("Subscriptions") are billed on a monthly basis beginning the day the payment is processed and auto renew at the end of the one (1) month interval. Aircraft listings may take up to 48 hours to appear in search results if the user added a make, model or variant to the database, as these submissions must be reviewed before posting. No discount in price is applied due to this delay. Listings that attempt to add a make, model or variant to our database may be determined by our staff to be better fit to an existing make, model, or variant already in our database, in which case Planedock staff may modify your listing to an existing make, model or variant without notifying you. If you disagree with the way we classified your listing you may email us at support@planedock.com. Please detail why you disagree with the way we have classified your listing and include evidence that your aircraft is a different make/model or variant. All subscriptions can be cancelled at any time. All monthly aircraft subscriptions, once cancelled, are cancelled immediately and the associated privileges revoked, the amount due is prorated to the day of cancellation. Planedock Pro member subscriptions remain valid until the end of the billing period, at which point they will be canceled. Planedock Pro membership fees are not prorated when canceled. All subscriptions are non-refundable. When a Subscription invoice fails to be paid, due to an expired card or other problem, the Subscription is automatically cancelled, and the privileges associated with that Subscription are removed. By posting a listing, you give Planedock permission to post and promote your listing on our social media channels. Users are prohibited from uploading more than twenty (20) photos without posting an aircraft listing and Planedock may block further uploads until a monthly aircraft listing is purchased. Users may contact support to cancel subscriptions including monthly aircraft listings and Planedock Pro memberships, but users must contact support with the email associated with the Planedock account or Planedock may not cancel the associated subscriptions.
