+---
+
+## Introduction
+
+The Mendix Contract Management system ensures a seamless and predictable Mendix experience by keeping you fully informed of contract statuses and maintaining data portability throughout your Mendix subscription lifecycle.
+
+This document provides detailed information about the status of your Mendix application contracts, critical timelines, and the actions required to guarantee continuous access to your Mendix applications and services.
+
+## Mendix Subscription Lifecycle{#mendix-subscription-lifecycle}
+
+Your Mendix subscription is categorized into three main statuses: Active, Expiring, and Expired, based on your contract's expiry date.
+
+| Account Status | Timeline | Impact |
+|---------------|----------|--------------------|
+| **Active (Green)** | Until 30 days before contract expiry | Your account is fully active, with all services available and application runtimes functioning normally. This is the optimal state for uninterrupted Mendix usage. |
+| **Expiring (Orange)** | From 30 days before contract expiry until contract end date | All services continue to function normally. You receive email reminders, notifications, and banner alerts on Mendix Platform about your upcoming renewal. |
+| **Expired (Red)** | From the day after contract expiry up to 60 days | Your account and applications are downgraded to **Unlicensed** mode. You can manually restart apps, but they will automatically shut down after 2-4 hours and are limited to 6 concurrent users. Platform features are not disabled.|
+
+## Contract Timeline and Milestones{#contract-timeline-and-milestones}
