By subscribing to or renewing the BaseCamp Pro Add-On, you agree to the following terms:
1. What You Get
The BaseCamp Pro Add-On includes access to:
– Cancellation Alerts – Viewable on the website (filtered and unfiltered) – E-Alerts – Email and/or push notifications – 9-Month-Out Booking BuddyThese tools help you discover campsite cancellations and guide you to the official reservation site to book.
2. About the Data
Cancellation info comes from third-party sources and user contributions. It’s provided as-is and may not always be complete or accurate. You are responsible for how you use it.
3. Pro Add-On Availability & Risk
The BaseCamp Pro Add-On relies on external systems for cancellation data. Access to these systems may change or be interrupted without notice. Continued access to BaseCamp Pro features is not guaranteed. By subscribing, you accept this risk and agree that BaseCamp is not liable for missed alerts or booking opportunities.
4. No Refunds
Because the BaseCamp Pro Add-On is offered for a such a modest fee, and relies on access to third-party data, the Pro fee is non-refundable. No refunds will be issued, even if one or more Pro features become unavailable.
5. Fair Use Limits
To ensure equal access for all members, reasonable daily limits apply to how many cancellation results you can view.
6. E-Alert Volume
To keep BaseCamp affordable, E-Alert delivery is subject to quota limits. BaseCamp reserves the right to adjust these limits at any time to manage operating costs, ensure fair usage, and maintain system performance. Additional capacity may be available but will be subject to an added fee.
You paid $12 for the Pro Add-on on .
The Pro Add-on was deactivated on August 17, 2025. Because your purchase was made more than 30 days prior to that date, it does not qualify for a refund under the Terms of Service you agreed to when signing up for Pro (see the bottom of the Terms of Service page for details).
That said, I want to be fair and keep our supporters happy. If you've had the Pro Add-on for 4 months or less and feel you received little or no value from it, please reach out for a possible partial refund.
To request this, email me at dave@campadk.com with the subject line: BaseCamp Pro Refund Request.
Deadline: Refund requests will only be processed if you contact us by December 17, 2025. No refunds will be issued after that date.
Be sure to include the email address linked to your BaseCamp subscription so I can locate your account.
Thank you for your understanding and continued support of the New York State Campsite Photos project.
