# Runtime and cancellation
|
||
|
|
||
|
The sponsorship model for Material for MkDocs is facilitated through GitHub
|
||
|
Sponsors and, therefore, adheres to GitHub's policies. If you're curious about
|
||
|
the duration of your sponsorship and the cancellation process, you will find
|
||
|
everything you need to know below.
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Runtime
|
||
|
|
||
|
Sponsorships remain valid as long as monthly or yearly subscriptions are
|
||
|
active and only expire when you cancel the sponsorship or when your [payment
|
||
|
method expires].
|
||
|
|
||
|
[payment method expires]: #automatic-cancellation
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Cancellation process
|
||
|
|
||
|
Canceling your sponsorship initiates a cancellation request through GitHub,
|
||
|
which is scheduled to take effect at the end of your current billing cycle. This
|
||
|
means you'll retain access to Insiders until the cancellation officially becomes
|
||
|
effective.
|
||
|
|
||
|
All transactions are processed by GitHub and as we don't receive any information
|
||
|
regarding your payment, we can't provide details about when your cancellation
|
||
|
will be in place.
|
||
|
|
||
|
### How to cancel
|
||
|
|
||
|
To downgrade or cancel your sponsorship, please follow the [step-by-step guide
|
||
|
from GitHub]. If you have sponsored using an organizational account, ensure that
|
||
|
you cancel the sponsorship under that specific account, as the
|
||
|
[collaborator and sponsor accounts may differ].

||
|

|
||
|
|
||
|
### Effects of cancellation
|
||
|
|
||
|
Upon the effective date of your cancellation, GitHub will automatically remove
|
||
|
you as a collaborator from the private Material for MkDocs Insiders repository.
|
||
|
You will no longer receive updates. However, you are welcome to continue using
|
||
|
the latest version available to you at the time of cancellation for as long as
|
||
|
you like.
|
||
|
|
||
|
!!! warning "GitHub deletes private forks"
|
||
|
|
||
|
Please note that once you lose your collaborator status, [GitHub will
|
||
|
automatically delete your private fork] of the Insiders repository, so you
|
||
|
may want to take steps to ensure that you have a local backup.
|
||
|
|
||
|
[GitHub will automatically delete your private fork]: https://docs.github.com/en/account-and-profile/setting-up-and-managing-your-personal-account-on-github/managing-access-to-your-personal-repositories/removing-a-collaborator-from-a-personal-repository#deleting-forks-of-private-repositories
|
||
|
|
||
|
### Automatic cancellation
|
||
|
|
||
|
If your credit card expires, GitHub will automatically cancel your sponsorship
|
||
|
and remove you as a collaborator. Regularly checking your payment method is
|
||
|
recommended to avoid unintended cancellations. If it happens, you can
|
||
|
reinstate your sponsorship with a new credit card.
