Refunds, downgrades, pausing and your data

Four questions people ask before they cancel
Can I get my money back?

Paid fees are non-refundable except where required by law or when Paramount expressly grants a refund. Apple, Google Play and other providers apply their own refund rules.

No refunds
Is there a cheaper way to stay?

A direct plan downgrade requested from the Account page takes effect at the end of the current billing period. An upgrade takes effect immediately with credit for unused days of the former plan.

Read this
Can I pause instead of cancel?

No subscription pause option is documented in the current US terms or reviewed official help material.

Not available
What happens to my account data?

Account deletion is separate from canceling auto-renewal. Paramount warns that in-app deletion can permanently remove access, profiles and preferences without refunding remaining time. Its privacy policy gives retention criteria but no single fixed general duration.
