How hard is it to cancel Hive?
Hive scores 73/100 (grade B) for how clearly it documents cancellation in the US, a clearly documented cancellation policy. Cancellation is available via online (self-serve), email.
Monthly subscribers can cancel self-serve in-app via Settings > Billing and choosing not to renew at the end of the billing period; only the Billing Admin can do this. Annual subscribers must contact support through the in-app chat (blue question mark icon). A 30-day advance notice before the renewal date is required to avoid being charged for the next period. All subscription fees are non-refundable once paid, with no credits for partial periods.

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.
