If you forget to cancel, you will be billed again automatically for another full subscription period, with no guarantee of a refund.
This clause creates a recurring financial obligation: subscribers who do not actively cancel before their renewal date will be charged for another subscription period. The agreement does not specify a post-renewal cooling-off or refund window, so the financial risk of inaction is a charge for an unwanted billing cycle.

"Subscriptions to DeepL Pro are automatically renewed at the end of each subscription period unless the customer cancels the subscription before the end of the current subscription period. The renewal is carried out for the same subscription period and at the same conditions as the original subscription unless DeepL has informed the customer of changed conditions prior to the renewal.— Excerpt from DeepL's DeepL Terms and Conditions
REGULATORY LANDSCAPE: Auto-renewal clauses engage national consumer protection laws across EU member states, including requirements for clear pre-renewal notice under the EU Consumer Rights Directive and equivalent national implementations such as Germany's BGB provisions on subscription contracts. The FTC's negative option rule and state-level auto-renewal statutes (notably California's ARL) may also apply to US-based subscribers. Enforcement authority varies by jurisdiction but includes national consumer protection agencies and state attorneys general. GOVERNANCE EXPOSURE: Medium. The clause's enforceability depends on whether DeepL provides adequate advance notice of renewal and clear cancellation instructions, as required by applicable consumer protection frameworks. Insufficient notice mechanisms could expose DeepL to regulatory challenge, though the clause itself is a commonly observed commercial practice. JURISDICTION FLAGS: EU/EEA consumers may benefit from mandatory cancellation and refund rights that override contractual terms, depending on national implementation of the Consumer Rights Directive. California residents are protected by the California Automatic Renewal Law, which requires specific disclosure and cancellation mechanisms. UK consumers have similar protections under the Consumer Contracts Regulations. CONTRACT AND VENDOR IMPLICATIONS: Procurement teams should document the cancellation process and renewal dates for DeepL Pro subscriptions. The clause asserts renewal at the same conditions unless prior notice is given, which limits the company's ability to change pricing without advance disclosure, but this should be verified against the notice period specified elsewhere in the terms. COMPLIANCE CONSIDERATIONS: Compliance teams should audit whether DeepL's renewal notification practices meet the pre-renewal notice requirements applicable in each jurisdiction of operation. Subscription management workflows should include calendar alerts for renewal dates to avoid unintended charges.
