## Refunds, pausing, downgrades and your data

- **Refunds:** Premium products may be refundable within seven days of the charge if Premium was not used. Local law may provide broader rights, including a 14-day EU right. In the Netherlands, a monthly subscription can be cancelled with one month's notice and LinkedIn refunds the unused remainder where its policy applies. Apple issues App Store refunds.
- **Pausing:** No Premium subscription pause is documented. LinkedIn account hibernation is separate and is not a billing pause.
- **Downgrading:** Eligible members can downgrade on desktop. After full cancellation, the account returns to Basic at the end of the billing cycle; free trials end immediately when cancelled.
- **Account data:** Cancelling keeps the LinkedIn account. Closing it is separate, and most accounts can be reopened within 14 days with some data loss.
