How hard is it to cancel Google Cloud CDN?
Google Cloud CDN scores 77/100 (grade B) for how clearly it documents cancellation in the US — a clearly documented cancellation policy. Cancellation is available via online (self-serve).
Cloud CDN is a pay-as-you-go feature with no separate subscription; you stop charges yourself in the Google Cloud console by disabling billing on the project. In the Billing section you find the project (My Projects or Account management), open the Actions menu, and select Disable billing, then confirm. Disabling billing stops all Google Cloud services in that project (including Cloud CDN) and some resources might be removed and become non-recoverable, so Google recommends backing up data first. Usage already accrued before you disable billing is still charged to the linked Cloud Billing account. You can't disable billing if the project has active or pending committed-use discounts.
How to cancel Google Cloud CDN
- Channels: online (self-serve)
- Official cancellation page: https://docs.cloud.google.com/billing/docs/how-to/modify-project
- Pause/freeze: not offered. Cloud CDN has no pause. It is a pay-as-you-go feature billed through Cloud Billing, so you stop charges by disabling billing on the project (or deleting the backend that has Cloud CDN enabled).
- Account/data deletion: Disabling billing on a project stops all Google Cloud services in that project, including Cloud CDN. Some resources might be removed and become non-recoverable, so Google recommends backing up data first. You cannot disable billing if the project has active or pending committed-use discounts.

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.
