# Your Factory Pass

> What a pass includes, how finals and storage work, and what happens when it ends.

A **Factory Pass** runs one book through the factory. Your Factory page
shows what's left at the foot of the step list: **Finals left** *n of 3*,
*live until (date)*. On a narrow screen it's at the top: *n of 3 finals
left · storage until (date)*.

## What's included

- One book (a second title is a second pass; revising and rebuilding the
  same book is just another build).
- Unlimited uploads, inspections and proofs.
- **3 finals.**
- **Six months** of storage and downloads from when the pass is set up.
- An authoring template generated for your book.
- Every final you export kept for download. Of the proofs, the factory
  keeps your latest five, your first, and the last one of each day you
  built.

**Refunds:** a full refund any time before your first build, proof or final.

Not included: email support, the typesetting source files, fonts (they are
licensed to the studio), and cover design beyond the type-only
[house cover](send-your-manuscript.md). Current prices and add-ons (more
finals, more time, an index, a review by the studio) are on the
[Factory page](/factory).

## When it ends

After six months the pass goes **read-only**: downloads keep working for
**30 more days**, but uploading and building stop. After that the
manuscript and builds are deleted; only the title, dates and build count are
kept. **Keep your own copy of the files you care about.**

## Messages you might see

- **"This project isn't running on a Factory Pass"**: uploading and
  building are off for this book. You can still read the transmittal and
  download anything already built.
- **"Your pass ended on (date)"**: downloads still work; ask the studio for
  more time.
- **"No finals left"**: proofs still work; add finals from the page, or ask.
- **"This pass is no longer active"**: email the studio and we'll sort it
  out.
