Where things stand today
The OnCancel app has not shipped. Right now this site publishes research: pages that document how to cancel a subscription, with every fact quoted from the company's own documentation and linked to its source.
Reading those pages requires no account and gives us nothing. We do not ask who you are, and there is nothing to log in to.
The statement checker
The checker at /check lets you paste the recurring-charges section of a bank or card statement to see what is charging you.
What you paste never leaves your browser. The parsing runs on your device in JavaScript. Nothing is uploaded, nothing is stored, and there is no account. You can verify this rather than take our word for it: open your browser's developer tools, switch to the Network tab, and paste a statement. No request carries the text.
That is deliberate and it is the point. A company that intends to ask for bank access later should first prove it can ship something that provably cannot leak anything.
What this page will say when the app ships
When the app exists, this page will document, in plain words and before you are asked to connect anything:
- What a bank connection lets us see, and what it does not — including that it cannot move money
- Exactly which email permission is requested, and why that specific one
- What we store, what we deliberately do not store, and for how long
- What happens when you delete your account, and how long it takes
- Who else can see any of it
We would rather leave this section unwritten than fill it with intentions. It will be written when the answers are decided, not before.
Our commitments on the research itself
- No affiliate relationship with any company we score, so a score can never be bought
- Every non-null fact carries a verbatim quote and a link to its source
- Errors are logged publicly, with dates — see corrections
- The scoring method is published in full at methodology
