1. **Open the TIDAL account site** Visit account.tidal.com and sign in with the account that owns the subscription.
2. **Open Subscription** Navigate to Subscription in the account menu.

1. **Open Apple Subscriptions** For an Apple-billed plan, open Settings on the iPhone or iPad, tap your name and choose Subscriptions.

## Refunds, pausing, downgrades and your data

- **Refunds:** Outside the UK, EU, EEA and Brazil, TIDAL subscription fees are nonrefundable. Brazil has a seven-day right and the UK, EU and EEA have a 14-day right if streaming or downloading has not started. Partner refunds must be requested from the partner.
- **Pausing:** No subscription pause option is documented in TIDAL's current subscription support and terms.
- **Downgrading:** TIDAL says the subscription can be modified at account.tidal.com. Canceling stops renewal and paid access ends after the current subscription period.
- **Account data:** Account deletion is permanent and separately removes playlists, favorites, listening history, profile, uploaded music and account details. Deleting a TIDAL account does not cancel third-party billing, and any remaining direct subscription period is forfeited.
