How hard is it to cancel ClouDNS?
ClouDNS scores 83/100 (grade B) for how clearly it documents cancellation in the BG, a clearly documented cancellation policy. Cancellation is available via online (self-serve).
ClouDNS subscriptions are cancelled online and self-serve: automatic-renewal subscriptions can be managed and cancelled anytime before expiration without prior notice from Profile > Manage Subscriptions, and pre-authorized billing agreements (default payment methods) can be cancelled anytime without prior notice from Profile > Payment Methods, with PayPal agreements cancellable on the PayPal site. When a premium plan expires the account reverts to the free servers with free-plan limits. ClouDNS offers an unconditional 7-day money-back guarantee on hosting services, requested by chat or ticket, refunded minus transaction fees; domain renewals are non-refundable.
How to cancel ClouDNS
- Channels: online (self-serve)
- Official cancellation page: https://www.cloudns.net/tos/
- Pause/freeze: not offered. ClouDNS has no pause. You stop recurring charges by cancelling the auto-renew subscription or the pre-authorized billing agreement; when a premium plan expires the account drops to the free tier (zones and features limited to the free plan) rather than being held.
- Refund policy: https://www.cloudns.net/tos/
- Account/data deletion: Cancelling billing keeps the account on the free tier rather than deleting it. ClouDNS provides documented self-serve deletion of cloud domains/zones in the control panel; full account or personal-data deletion is requested via ClouDNS support (chat or ticket).

Scope & fairness
This is the Documented-Policy tier: it measures how clearly the cancellation policy is published (cited, dated facts), not the behavioural experience of cancelling (Verified-Flow audit pending). Every company is scored on the same five dimensions with the same published weights, scores cannot be bought or removed. It is opinion grounded in disclosed facts, and not legal advice.
