How hard is it to cancel Mediapart?

Mediapart offers fully self-serve online cancellation via Mon Compte > Gerer mon compte > Abonnement et paiement > 'Resilier mon abonnement'; subscriptions are cancellable at any time and the subscriber keeps access until the end of the paid period, with no letter required (cancellation is not possible in the mobile app, and App Store/Google Play subscriptions must be cancelled through those platforms). All plans are 'duree libre' and auto-renew at the end of each period; annual plans trigger an email warning 45 days before renewal. There are no refunds: access simply continues to the end of the paid period with no pro-rata refund. The 14-day droit de retractation is not invoked for journal subscriptions (consumer protection is instead the 1 euro 15-day trial plus cancel-anytime) and is expressly waived for the separate VOD service. Note that the page literally titled 'Conditions generales de vente' governs only the VOD service; the binding subscription terms live in the help-center articles.

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.
