A usage period is a monthly period that starts on the day when you create an account, and resets/ends on the same day each subsequent month. For example, if you create an account on the 10th of January, your first usage period runs from the 10th of January to the 9th of February, and the second usage period runs from the 10th of February to the 9th of March, and so on.

If you upgrade your account to a paid plan, the day of the month that your account renews becomes the day that your usage period resets. For example, if you create an account on the 10th of January, and you upgrade your account on the 20th of January, your usage period now runs from from the 20th of January to the 19th of February, and your second usage period will run from the 20th of February to the 19th of March. If your account downgrades automatically, you will retain this usage period until you upgrade again.

Our system records an 'Add to Calendar click' each time someone clicks an "add to calendar" button or link to add your event to their calendar, and our servers receive that request. Add to Calendar clicks (event-adds) are counted for all of the event sharing methods included in the Dashboard, and for automated add to calendar buttons and links. Note that Add to Calendar click are counted for events, and not for calendar subscriptions. For example, if you have a calendar with 5 events on it, a user subscribing to that calendar would count as 1 subscriber and 0 Add to Calendar clicks.

Subscription calendars are calendars that you create (and share) via the AddEvent Dashboard that can contain multiple events. Your users can subscribe (or follow) these calendars to add all of the events contained within them to their personal calendars. When your users subscribe, they become 'subscribers', and a dynamic connection is created between AddEvent and their chosen calendar system. This dynamic connection means that when you add, delete or change an event in the AddEvent subscription calendar you've created, that change will be reflected (after a short delay) on its subscribers' personal calendars.
