What happens if my paid upgrade expires?

Don't worry, your project will work just fine at the free tier, we will not delete your data but may have to throttle the web traffic and prevent new map contributions due to the server and hosting costs. See our limits here: Pricing

Paid projects can export to CSV anytime.
