Refunds, downgrades, pausing and your data

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

Zencastr's terms state that annual subscription payments are not refunded except where expressly provided and that cancellation or termination does not create a refund. Trial charges also have no credits or refunds unless otherwise specified.

Case by case
Is there a cheaper way to stay?

A paid cancellation schedules a downgrade to the free, hosting-only Hobbyist plan at the end of the current billing cycle. Canceling a free trial downgrades immediately.

Free tier exists
Can I pause instead of cancel?

No subscription pause option is documented in Zencastr's official plan and payment help collection.

Not available
What happens to my account data?

Cancellation preserves the account on the free Hobbyist plan. Account deletion is separate and must be requested from support by chat or email from the registered address; all past recording and postproduction files then become unavailable.
