What happens to my videos if I cancel my MailVideo Subscription?

Learn about video storage and access after canceling your paid MailVideo subscription.

Troubleshooting and FAQ

If you have subscribed to MailVideo Premium or MailVideo Business, and decide to cancel your subscription, the following will happen:

Access During Current Billing Period

Once you cancel your subscription, you will keep access to your MailVideo account until the end of your current billing period. After that, you will no longer be able to use MailVideo and you will lose access to your video library.

Video Storage Period

Your videos will be stored for 3 months after your plan is cancelled. After that, your videos will be deleted and cannot be restored. That means that you and people you have shared the video with will no longer be able to watch the video.

CRM Integration Data

If you have been using one of our CRM-integrations, you might see that “video created” and “video seen” activities are listed in your CRM’s activity tab. This information is stored in your CRM and will not be affected when your subscription is cancelled. However, once the video gets deleted, you will no longer be able to see the video that is connected with the activity.

What You Can Do

Before Cancellation

  • Download Important Videos: Save copies of any critical videos locally
  • Export Data: Save any important analytics or CRM integration data
  • Consider Downgrading: Instead of canceling, consider switching to a lower-tier plan

After Cancellation

  • 3-Month Grace Period: Your videos remain accessible for viewing for 3 months
  • Reactivate Anytime: You can reactivate your subscription during the 3-month period to regain full access
  • Data Recovery: Contact support if you need assistance with accessing your content during the grace period

Important Timeline

  • Day 0: Subscription is cancelled
  • End of billing period: Account access is suspended
  • Days 1-90 after billing period: Videos remain viewable but account is locked
  • Day 91+ after billing period: Videos are permanently deleted and cannot be recovered

Reactivating Your Subscription

To regain access to your videos and account:

  1. Visit the pricing page
  2. Choose a plan that fits your needs
  3. Complete the reactivation process
  4. Regain full access to all features and content

Data Backup Recommendations

Before canceling your subscription, consider:

  • Video Downloads: Save important videos to your local storage
  • CRM Data Export: Export any integration data you want to keep
  • Analytics Reports: Save any performance data or analytics reports
  • Contact Lists: Export any contact or viewer data you’ve collected

Cancellation vs. Downgrade

Instead of canceling completely, you might consider:

  • Downgrading to a lower-tier plan to maintain basic access
  • Pausing your subscription if that option is available
  • Switching to a different billing cycle that better fits your budget
