Our order process and billing for international and European Union customers is conducted by our online reseller and Merchant of Record, Dodo Payments Inc. (or designated affiliates).

  • Merchant of Record Role: Dodo Payments is the legal entity of sale and processes payments (Credit/Debit Card, PayPal, Apple Pay, Google Pay). Dodo Payments collects, calculates, and remits applicable sales tax and EU Value Added Tax (VAT) under EU Directive 2006/112/EC.

3. License Grants & Permitted Use

Subject to your compliance with these Terms, InkCheckHero grants you a personal, worldwide, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to use the software:

  • Confirmation: An automated confirmation receipt containing order details and subscription management links is sent to the purchaser’s email immediately.

5. Prepress Accuracy & Technical Disclaimer

InkCheckHero applies mathematical total area coverage ($C\% + M\% + Y\% + K\%$) checks and Gray Component Replacement (GCR) algorithms to help detect and reduce ink density.

Important Prepress Operational Notice:

Printing outcomes depend on variables beyond software calculations, including printing press characteristics, substrate properties (coated, uncoated, newsprint), dot gain, and color profile rendering intents (ISO Coated v2, Fogra 39/51, GRACoL).

InkCheckHero is an advisory preflight tool. You remain solely responsible for visual inspection of press-ready proofs and ensuring conformity with your printing service provider’s technical specifications.

6. Subscriptions, Renewals & Cancellation

  • Recurring Billing: Monthly subscriptions renew automatically each month unless cancelled prior to the renewal date. Annual plans purchased as Early Bird offers do not auto-renew without consent.
  • Cancellation: You may cancel your subscription at any time with zero fee via the customer portal link in your receipt email or by contacting support@inkcheckhero.com.
  • Post-Cancellation Access: Upon cancellation, your Pro features remain fully accessible until the end of your current prepaid billing cycle.
  • Refund Policy & Digital Content: Under Directive 2011/83/EU Article 16(m), digital software licenses supplied immediately upon purchase with prior consent are non-refundable. For full terms, see our Refund & Cancellation Policy.
