### Cost reimbursement
We reserve the right to seek reimbursement for administrative costs associated with responding to requests for information, as allowed by law.
Under state and federal law, GitHub can seek reimbursement for costs associated with compliance with a valid legal demand, such as a subpoena, court order or search warrant. We only charge to recover some costs, and these reimbursements cover only a portion of the costs we actually incur to comply with legal orders.
While we do not charge in emergency situations or in other exigent circumstances, we seek reimbursement for all other legal requests in accordance with the following schedule, unless otherwise required by law:

- Production of subscriber information/data for up to 5 accounts: Free
- Production of subscriber information/data for more than 5 accounts: $20 per account
- Secondary searches: $10 per search
