Terms of Use

Last Updated: [17 April 2025]

Welcome to Uhuru VPN! These Terms of Use ("Terms") govern your access to and use of the Uhuru VPN website and VPN services (collectively, the "Service") provided by Uhuru VPN Team. Please read these Terms carefully.

By accessing or using the Service, you agree to be bound by these Terms. If you disagree with any part of the terms, then you may not access the Service.

1. Service Description

Uhuru VPN provides virtual private network (VPN) services via the Outline protocol, allowing users to establish secure connections through our servers. The Service is provided "as is".

2. User Accounts

Account registration (using email/password) is required for paid services.

You must provide accurate information and keep it updated.

You are responsible for password confidentiality and account activities.

Notify us immediately of unauthorized use via support@uhuruvpn.com. We are not liable for losses due to your failure to secure your account.

3. Subscriptions, Payments, Cancellations, and Refunds

Subscription Plans: Access to the VPN service requires an active paid subscription. We offer various subscription plans (e.g., monthly, semi-annually, annually) with different durations and prices as displayed on our website at the time of purchase.

Payment: You agree to pay all applicable fees for the subscription plan you select. Payments are processed through third-party payment processors. You authorize us and our payment processors to charge your chosen payment method for the selected subscription term. All fees are in USD unless otherwise stated.

Automatic Renewal: To ensure uninterrupted service, your subscription will automatically renew at the end of each billing period for the same duration (e.g., monthly renews monthly, annually renews annually) at the then-current price, unless you cancel it beforehand. You authorize us to charge your payment method for these renewals.

Cancellation: You may cancel the automatic renewal of your subscription at any time before the end of your current billing period. You can manage your subscription and cancel renewals through your Personal Cabinet on our website.

Cancellation and Refund Policy

Monthly Subscriptions: All payments made for monthly subscription plans are final and non-refundable. If you cancel your monthly subscription's automatic renewal, you will retain access to the Service for the remainder of the current monthly billing period you have already paid for. Your access will cease after this period ends.

Semi-Annual and Annual Subscriptions: For subscriptions with a duration of six (6) months or twelve (12) months, you may be eligible for a partial refund upon cancellation, subject to the following conditions:

  • Refunds are calculated based solely on the number of full, unused calendar months remaining in your subscription period at the time the cancellation request is processed.
  • The calendar month during which the cancellation occurs is considered fully used and is non-refundable, regardless of the cancellation date within that month. There are no refunds for partial months or unused days within the cancellation month.
  • The refundable amount will be calculated by determining the pro-rata monthly value of your subscription (total subscription cost divided by the number of months in the term) multiplied by the number of full, unused months remaining after the month of cancellation.

Example: If you have purchased a 12-month subscription and request a cancellation after 6 months and 3 days have passed, the first 7 months are considered used. You will be eligible for a refund corresponding to the value of the remaining 5 full months (months 8, 9, 10, 11, and 12).

Effect of Cancellation (Longer Plans with Refund): If you cancel and receive a refund, your access to the Service will continue until the end of the last fully paid, non-refunded month (i.e., the end of the calendar month during which you cancelled).

Effect of Cancellation (No Refund / End of Term): If you only cancel the automatic renewal without requesting a refund, your access will continue for the entire duration of the originally paid period.

Refund Requests: To request a refund for an eligible subscription, please contact our customer support at support@uhuruvpn.com. Refund requests must be submitted before the expiry of your current subscription term. Please note that any transaction fees associated with the original payment may not be refundable.

The refund is carried out within 7 business days to the details from which the payment was made or the details that will be provided by the client upon request.

Price Changes: We reserve the right to change subscription fees. We will provide reasonable notice of any price changes (e.g., via email or website posting) before they take effect. Price changes will apply only to subsequent renewal periods.
