How hard is it to cancel PureVPN?

PureVPN subscribers can cancel by logging into the Member Area, going to Subscriptions, and clicking 'Cancel Subscription' — a self-serve online flow. Cancellation stops future billing immediately but no specific effective-date or remaining-access timeline is stated. Refunds are available within 31 days of the initial purchase via email to [email protected] or live chat, but renewals and trial-based charges are explicitly excluded from the refund policy. Payments made via Google Play, Apple App Store, or Coinpayments are also non-refundable.

• Account/data deletion: No self-service deletion. Users must email [email protected] to request account deletion from the database. No GDPR-specific process or timeline is documented on the help page. https://support.purevpn.com/en_US/subscription-faqs/how-to-delete-my-purevpn-account

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.
