PayPal
· PayPal User Agreement
Many consumers assume that closing an account ends all financial obligations, but PayPal's surviving liability clause means you can still face collection actions, negative balance recovery, or chargeback liability long after closure.
PayPal
· PayPal User Agreement
Closing your account does not eliminate financial obligations already incurred, and pending payments, including payments to sellers or received funds, will be cancelled at closure, which could affect both senders and recipients.
Account closure is permanent and immediate, meaning any transaction records, linked account data, or financial information not downloaded beforehand is effectively inaccessible — this is particularly important for tax records or financial planning purposes.
Consumers may believe that closing an account ends their obligations, but this clause preserves Afterpay's ability to collect outstanding debts and pursue liability after account closure.

Grindr
· Grindr Privacy Policy

Bumble
· Bumble Terms and Conditions

23andMe

Hinge
