Protect what you need to keep
Export support and formats vary by provider and plan. Follow official documentation and verify the exported data before cancellation; this assessment does not provide a tested vendor-specific export procedure.
Confirm the terms for your account
- Cancellation, refunds, notice periods and data deletion depend on your agreement and provider policy. No universal retention or refund period is assumed.
Questions before you decide
Will cancelling Amazon SES immediately stop charges or delete data?
That depends on your contract and the provider's current process. Confirm the effective cancellation date, pending charges and data-retention policy directly before proceeding.
