Notice windows
When each notice must be sent. A notice outside its window does not count, so schedule sends against the exact dates.
| Notice | When | Applies when | Citation |
|---|---|---|---|
| Renewal notice 30-60 days ahead for subscriptions renewing for 12 months or more | 30-60 days before renewal | term ≥ 12 months, online sign-up | Idaho Code § 48-603G(1)(b), (4) |
Several states use overlapping windows; one email can often satisfy all of them. See free-trial notices and price increases.
Who can sue, and remedies
Private right of action: No private right of action: enforced by public officials only.
Idaho Consumer Protection Act violation: Attorney General enforcement, no private right of action; good-faith compliance bars civil penalties.
Remedy figures come from the cited statutes and from public enforcement records summarized in Checkbox's litigation research; figures from secondary sources are marked "unverified" where they appear.
