These policies will consist, specifically, in greater transparency with the user, making it clear that the subscription will renew automatically unless configured otherwise, when it will renew, how much the renewal will cost, and how to request a refund in the event of unwanted renewal. What’s more, if a user has been on an automatic subscription for a long time without using it, they will be warned about it and even your subscription will be canceled if it remains inactive for longer.
