## Refunds, pausing, downgrades and your data

- **Refunds:** Philo does not provide refunds or credits for a remaining partial subscription period unless required by law. Cancellation stops the next renewal.
- **Pausing:** No Philo subscription pause option is documented.
- **Downgrading:** Philo has a separate Free Channels experience, but cancellation does not automatically promise conversion to it. A canceled paid account can be reactivated later while retained account information remains.
- **Account data:** Cancellation retains the name, email and phone number, and the payment processor retains the card unless Remove payment info is selected. Permanent deletion requires Support and prevents reactivation; some legal and operational records or backups can remain.
