- Subscription Cancellation by You: If you have purchased a recurring paid subscription, you may cancel auto-renewal at any time. When you choose to cancel auto-renewal, your paid subscription will not renew on the next auto-renewal date. You may continue to enjoy your upgraded membership benefits until that date, after which your account will be downgraded.
