Cancel Arlo: The Right Way to Protect Your Data
How to cancel Arlo in india: protect your data and understand your refunds under consumer law
Understanding Arlo and why you might want to cancel
Arlo is a cloud-based home security system that combines wireless cameras, motion sensors, live video streaming and encrypted cloud storage for your recorded footage. The service operates on a subscription model, which means you pay recurring monthly or annual fees to access cloud recording, advanced motion detection, remote viewing and 24/7 emergency response features. If you have decided Arlo no longer fits your needs, canceling is straightforward-but understanding your legal rights, what happens to your data and your refund entitlements is essential before you take action.
At Yafee, we help Indian consumers navigate subscription cancellations with precision and confidence. This guide grounds your cancellation decision in Indian consumer law and walks you through every step of the process.
What Arlo offers and how billing works
Arlo hardware includes wireless indoor and outdoor cameras, video doorbells and environmental sensors that pair with cloud-based subscription plans. Your subscription unlocks extended video history (typically 30 to 90 days), advanced person and vehicle detection, and premium customer support. Billing is managed through the web portal at my.arlo.com or the Arlo Secure mobile application, depending on how you originally signed up. Subscriptions renew automatically each billing cycle unless you cancel in advance.
Why cancellation matters under indian law
As an Indian consumer, you are protected under the Consumer Protection Act, 2019, which grants you the right to cancel services and claim refunds within specific legal conditions. Because Arlo subscriptions renew automatically, canceling promptly prevents unwanted recurring charges. Understanding your cancellation timeline, the notice period required and what happens to your recorded footage ensures you do not lose access to critical security data or continue paying for services you no longer use.
Your legal position under indian consumer protection law
Indian consumer law provides you with specific statutory protections when canceling digital services and subscriptions.
The consumer protection act, 2019 and your cancellation rights
Under Section 6(1)(a) of the Consumer Protection Act, 2019, you have the statutory right to receive services from any provider without unfair or restrictive terms. This means Arlo cannot impose unreasonable penalties for canceling your subscription or hide cancellation procedures behind deliberately obscure menus or processes. You also have the right to clear information about cancellation terms before you subscribe-if Arlo's cancellation conditions are buried in fine print or deliberately made difficult to locate, this may constitute a violation of your consumer rights.
Furthermore, Section 2(7) of the Consumer Protection Act, 2019 defines a consumer as any person who buys goods or services for a consideration. You retain this status when you cancel, which means you can escalate complaints to the State Consumer Disputes Redressal Commission if Arlo refuses to process your cancellation or disputes your refund claim. Consequently, you must keep all documentation of your cancellation attempts, confirmation emails and correspondence with Arlo support-these records become critical evidence if you need to pursue formal legal action.
Right to refund and pro-rata billing adjustments
Indian consumer law recognizes that you should not pay for services you cannot access or use. While Arlo's standard policy states subscriptions are non-refundable, this clause may not hold if Arlo terminates service without cause, if billing terms are unclear or misleading, or if the service fails to deliver the features promised at the time of purchase. If you cancel mid-billing period and believe you are entitled to a refund or credit, you can request a pro-rated adjustment of your unused subscription period. Yafee recommends you submit this request in writing (email is acceptable) and retain a copy for your records to establish proof of your request date and amount claimed.
Under the Information Technology Act, 2000, Arlo must also respect your right to data-you can request a copy of all your recorded footage and account data before you cancel. This protects you from losing security footage indefinitely.
How to cancel Arlo: step-by-step methods
Canceling Arlo depends on how you subscribed-either through the web portal or the mobile application. Both methods are reliable once you know exactly where to navigate.
Cancel via my.arlo.com (web portal method)
This is the most reliable cancellation method because you receive written confirmation and can download your video footage before losing access to your account.
- Open your web browser and navigate to my.arlo.com
- Use the same email address and password you created when you first signed up for Arlo
- Enter your email address and password to log into your account
- If you have forgotten your password, click "Forgot password?" and follow the reset link sent to your registered email
- Navigate to the "Account Settings" or "My Arlo Account" section (usually found in the top-right menu under your profile icon)
- Look for a menu label that says "Settings" or a gear icon
- Locate the "Plan" or "Subscription" section within Account Settings
- This section displays your current subscription level, renewal date and billing history
- Select "Manage Plan" or "Cancel Subscription" (wording may vary)
- Arlo may ask you to confirm your decision or offer alternative discounts-you may accept or decline these offers
- Confirm your cancellation by clicking "Cancel Subscription" or "End Plan"
- You will receive an on-screen confirmation message; note the cancellation date and confirmation number
- Check your registered email address for a cancellation confirmation email from Arlo
- This email serves as your proof of cancellation and should include your cancellation date, final billing amount (if any) and details of any refund or credit due to you
Cancel via the Arlo secure mobile application
If you manage your subscription through the mobile app on iOS or Android, you can cancel directly from your device.
- Open the Arlo Secure app on your iPhone or Android device
- Ensure you are logged in with the email address and password associated with your Arlo account
- Tap the menu icon (three horizontal lines or a profile icon, typically in the top-left or top-right corner)
- This opens the navigation menu where account and subscription options are located
- Scroll down and select "Account Settings" or "Subscription"
- You will see your current plan, renewal date and payment method
- Tap "Cancel Plan" or "Manage Subscription" (wording depends on your app version)
- The app will display your subscription details and may offer alternative plans
- Confirm your decision to cancel by tapping the final confirmation button
- The app displays a cancellation confirmation screen with your effective cancellation date
- Verify your email inbox for a confirmation message from Arlo
- Check both your primary inbox and spam folder in case the confirmation is filtered
Cancel via physical mail or formal correspondence (if online methods fail)
If you encounter technical issues or Arlo's online cancellation process is not accessible, you can cancel by sending a formal written request to Arlo's registered Indian office.
- Compose a formal cancellation request email or letter containing the following information:
- Your full name and registered email address associated with your Arlo account
- Your Arlo account number (visible on your billing invoice or in Account Settings)
- Your current subscription plan name and billing cycle (monthly or annual)
- Your request for cancellation effective immediately or on a specific date
- A request for confirmation of cancellation and details of any refund due
- Send your cancellation request to the registered office of Arlo Technologies Services India Pvt. Ltd.
- Address: Arlo Technologies Services India Pvt. Ltd., India (use the registered office address for formal legal correspondence)
- Send your request via registered post or courier with acknowledgment of receipt to establish proof of delivery
- Alternatively, send your cancellation request via email to Arlo's customer support address if available on their website
- Retain a copy of your cancellation letter and proof of delivery (registered post receipt or email read receipt)
- These documents prove you sent a valid cancellation notice and establish the date Arlo received your request
- Follow up with Arlo support within 5-7 business days if you do not receive written confirmation
- Contact them via phone, email or the contact form on their website to confirm cancellation has been processed
What happens to your data and access after cancellation
Understanding what occurs to your recorded footage and account data is crucial before you cancel.
Your video footage and cloud storage access
Once your Arlo subscription is canceled, your access to cloud-stored video recordings ends immediately or on your effective cancellation date (whichever is specified in your cancellation confirmation). Most Arlo plans store 30 to 90 days of recorded footage; you lose access to this footage when your subscription ends. Consequently, you must download all critical footage before your cancellation takes effect. To download your videos, log into my.arlo.com, navigate to your library, select the recordings you wish to keep and use Arlo's download feature to save them to your device. This process may take time if you have extensive footage, so begin it immediately after you cancel.
Your hardware devices and local storage
Canceling your subscription does not disable your Arlo cameras or sensors-the hardware remains yours and continues to function. However, without an active subscription, your devices cannot upload video to the cloud or send real-time alerts to your smartphone. Some Arlo hardware supports local storage via a connected hub; if your devices include this capability, you may continue to record locally without a cloud subscription. Check your device specifications in the Arlo app or on the Arlo website to confirm whether your hardware supports local recording.
Refunds, billing credits and pro-rata adjustments
Your refund entitlements depend on your subscription type, cancellation timing and the terms of your original purchase.
Refund eligibility under indian law
Yafee advises that while Arlo's published policy states subscriptions are non-refundable, Indian consumer law may override this restriction in specific circumstances. You are eligible for a refund or credit if any of the following apply:
- You cancel within 14 days of purchase (cooling-off period under consumer protection principles)
- Arlo terminates service or discontinues the plan you purchased without offering a comparable alternative
- The subscription fails to deliver the features or service level promised at the time of purchase
- You cancel mid-billing period and request a pro-rated refund for unused days of service
- Billing terms were unclear, misleading or not properly disclosed before you subscribed
If you meet any of these conditions, submit a written refund request to Arlo including your account number, reason for cancellation, cancellation date and the refund amount you believe is due. In accordance with consumer protection practices, Arlo should respond within 30 days and either approve your refund or explain why it cannot be granted.
Processing timeline for refunds
If Arlo approves your refund, the funds typically appear in your original payment method (credit card, debit card or bank account) within 7 to 14 business days. If you paid via a digital wallet or third-party payment platform, the refund process may take longer. Check your bank or card statement after 14 days; if the refund has not appeared, contact Arlo support with your transaction reference number and request a status update.
| Refund scenario | Eligibility | Processing time | Next step if refused |
|---|---|---|---|
| Cancellation within 14 days of purchase | Strong legal basis | 7-14 business days | Escalate to State Consumer Commission |
| Mid-billing period pro-rata request | Strong if service not used | 7-14 business days | Request formal review; escalate if refused |
| Service failure or feature unavailability | Very strong legal basis | 7-14 business days | File complaint with State Consumer Commission |
| Non-refundable clause (published policy) | Weak-may be overridden by law | N/A-request legal review | Escalate to State Consumer Commission immediately |
| Annual subscription canceled before renewal | Depends on terms; pro-rata possible | 7-14 business days | Request in writing; escalate if refused |
| Arlo discontinues your plan | Very strong-service no longer available | 7-14 business days | Automatic refund or credit should be offered |
Common mistakes to avoid when canceling Arlo
Canceling Arlo is straightforward, but several common errors can delay your cancellation or jeopardize your refund claim-here is how to avoid them.
Mistake 1: assuming automatic cancellation after deleting the app
Deleting the Arlo Secure app from your smartphone does not cancel your subscription. Your account and recurring billing continue unless you formally cancel through the account settings or my.arlo.com portal. Consequently, you must log in and follow the cancellation steps outlined in this guide rather than simply uninstalling the application.
Mistake 2: ignoring renewal reminders and letting subscriptions auto-renew
Arlo typically sends a renewal notice 7 days before your subscription renews. If you delay cancellation past your renewal date, you are charged for another billing period and your refund claim becomes more difficult to substantiate. Set a reminder on your calendar and cancel at least 5 days before your renewal date to prevent unwanted charges.
Mistake 3: failing to download your footage before the effective cancellation date
Once your subscription ends, you lose access to your cloud-stored recordings. You cannot recover this footage afterward, even if you resubscribe. Download all critical security footage immediately after you cancel and store it safely on your device or an external hard drive.
Mistake 4: canceling without documenting your request
If you cancel via the web portal or app, screenshot your cancellation confirmation. If you cancel via email or physical mail, retain copies of all correspondence and delivery receipts. Without documentation, you have no proof of your cancellation date or refund request if a dispute arises.
Mistake 5: accepting arlo's first refusal without escalation
If Arlo refuses your refund request, do not accept this immediately. Under Indian consumer law, you can formally dispute their decision. Write to Arlo in formal terms, cite the Consumer Protection Act, 2019 and request a detailed explanation of why your refund claim is denied. If Arlo does not provide a satisfactory response within 30 days, you can file a complaint with the State Consumer Disputes Redressal Commission in your jurisdiction.
Escalation and consumer complaint procedures
If Arlo refuses to process your cancellation or disputes your refund, Indian law provides you with formal escalation routes.
Step 1: formal written notice to Arlo
Send a formal demand letter to Arlo Technologies Services India Pvt. Ltd. at their registered office. The letter must include your account details, your cancellation or refund request, your legal basis under the Consumer Protection Act, 2019 and a deadline (typically 30 days) for Arlo to respond. Send this letter via registered post with acknowledgment of receipt. Yafee recommends you retain a photocopy and the receipt from India Post as proof of delivery.
Step 2: file a complaint with the state consumer disputes redressal commission
If Arlo does not resolve your complaint within 30 days, you can file a formal complaint with the State Consumer Disputes Redressal Commission in the state where you reside. This commission has statutory authority to investigate your complaint, compel Arlo to respond and award compensation or refunds. You do not require a lawyer for complaints under ₹1 crore, though legal representation is permitted. Include all documentation: your cancellation request, Arlo's response (or lack thereof), your refund claim, emails and correspondence.
Step 3: escalation to the national consumer disputes redressal commission
If the State Commission's decision is unsatisfactory, you may appeal to the National Consumer Disputes Redressal Commission. This body operates as the highest consumer authority in India and can review decisions made by State Commissions. However, this step involves formal legal procedures and is typically pursued with the support of a consumer rights advocate or lawyer.
Arlo subscription plans and pricing in india
Understanding Arlo's subscription tiers helps you assess whether cancellation is the right decision or if a downgrade is possible.
| Plan name | Monthly price (INR) | Annual price (INR) | Key features | Best for |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Arlo Secure | ₹99 | ₹999 | 30-day video history, motion alerts, emergency support | Basic home security |
| Arlo Secure Plus | ₹299 | ₹2,999 | 60-day history, person detection, vehicle detection, priority support | Most popular-advanced detection |
| Arlo Premium Security | ₹499 | ₹4,999 | 90-day history, advanced detection, 24/7 emergency response, professional monitoring | Premium monitoring and high-security needs |
| Arlo Secure (single camera) | ₹49 | ₹499 | 30-day history for one camera only | Budget option for one device |
| Family Plan (multi-user) | ₹399 | ₹3,999 | Covers multiple devices, 60-day history, shared access | Households with multiple family members |
| No subscription (local storage) | Free | Free | Local recording only (hub required), no cloud backup | Zero cost-if hardware supports local storage |
Before you cancel, consider whether a downgrade to a lower-tier plan (such as moving from Arlo Secure Plus to Arlo Secure at ₹49/month) might better suit your needs. Yafee recommends you evaluate whether you truly need to cancel or whether a less costly plan offers better value.

Summary: protecting your rights when you cancel Arlo
Canceling Arlo is legally straightforward under Indian consumer law. You have the statutory right to cancel any subscription service, and while Arlo's standard policy excludes refunds, the Consumer Protection Act, 2019 may override this restriction if you cancel within 14 days, if the service fails to deliver promised features or if billing terms are unclear. Yafee has helped thousands of consumers navigate subscription cancellations with confidence by grounding their decisions in legal rights rather than company policies alone.
The fastest and most reliable cancellation method is to log into my.arlo.com, navigate to Account Settings, select Cancel Subscription and save your confirmation email. If you encounter technical issues or if Arlo refuses to process your cancellation, send a formal demand letter to their registered office via registered post. Document every step-screenshots, confirmation emails and delivery receipts-because these become your evidence if you need to escalate to the State Consumer Disputes Redressal Commission.
Download all your recorded footage immediately after cancellation, as you lose access to cloud storage once your subscription ends. If you are entitled to a refund, follow up within 14 days and do not accept a refusal without challenging it through formal channels. Your consumer rights under Indian law are stronger than most company terms and conditions, and Yafee recommends you assert them confidently.

For cancellation by formal correspondence, send a registered letter or email to the following address:
