Exemptions

If a verified certificate is still within the grace period, no charges should apply.

Example:

Scenario: John verified CERT-001 on Sept 18, 2024.

Free Re-Verification: John can freely re-verify the certificate any time before Oct 18, 2024, without impacting his verification limit.

Post-Grace Period: If John verifies the certificate again on Oct 28, 2024, one verification will be deducted from his annual limit, as the grace period has ended.
