How to Cancel GitHub

There are a few things you must do and know before canceling subscriptions. They are:

1. Check the Terms, Service policy or Privacy policy of GitHub to know if they support self-serve subscription cancellation or account deletion:
   • https://docs.github.com/en/github/site-policy/github-terms-of-service
     
   • https://docs.github.com/en/github/site-policy/github-privacy-statement
     
2. Once you subscribe to a plan and you don't cancel it manually like you subscribed, that plan will renew automatically because you gave the permission.
3. When you subscribe for a trial period and then you cancel, you run the risk of losing that trial content altogether.
4. You must remember to manually cancel a subscription 24 hours before the trial period ends.
