Will I lose access immediately after downgrading?

No. Your paid plan remains active until the end of the current billing cycle. The downgrade to Free takes effect at the start of the next cycle.

Can I get a refund after cancelling?

SonarSource has a general no-refund policy. However, they may consider a refund if the account was unused for an extended period or if you are very early in a new billing cycle — contact support at contact@sonarcloud.io to request one.

What happens to my data after I cancel?

Your data is deleted from SonarSource servers 30 days after cancellation and removed from backup systems after 90 days. Recovery is only possible within the first 30 days.

Can I cancel by deleting my organization instead?

Yes. Deleting the organization stops all billing automatically since there is nothing left to bill. Navigate to your organization settings to delete it, but note this is irreversible and all project data will be lost.

How do I cancel a SonarQube Server (self-hosted) or Enterprise plan?

There is no self-service cancellation for SonarQube Server or annual/Enterprise plans. You must contact the sales team directly at sales@sonarsource.com or open a support ticket to terminate the commercial license contract.

Can an admin cancel on behalf of the account owner?

No. Per SonarSource's cancellation policy, only the verified account owner can initiate a cancellation or plan downgrade.
