Norton Cancellation and Refund Policy

You may change your mind, or your needs may change, and that's what our Cancellation & Refund Policy is for, although we would be sad to see you go.

Your cancellation, return, and refund eligibility may differ if you purchased from or are billed through a third party (e.g., app store, service provider, retailer, etc.). Review your offer terms for more information.

Our policy is independent of any statutory rights that you may have under the law.

If your order number starts with APXXXXXXXX or NPXXXXXXXX or if you have Norton 360 Standard Plus, follow the steps above to turn off Auto Renewal for your subscription.

If your order number starts with SY or NS, visit the below link to turn off Auto Renewal. You will need your "original order number" and the email address or phone number that was used when you ordered.
*Your original order number is in the email that we sent at the point of the first purchase completion.

It typically takes a few hours from your request for the change to take effect.

Effects of stopping your subscription from automatically renewing:

  • Your subscription will continue through the end of your already paid subscription term, after which it will end and not automatically renew.

  • Any benefits associated with automatically renewing subscriptions may end when you stop your subscription from automatically renewing.

Add-on subscriptions:
  • In case of add-on subscriptions linked to a main subscription, the cancellation of the renewal for your main subscription will also cancel the renewal for the added-on subscriptions.

  • However, the cancellation of the renewal for your added-on subscriptions will not cancel the renewal for your main subscription, and your renewal price will be adjusted accordingly.
