  • If you cancel your subscription, your reports will no longer be available unless you re-subscribe within 45 days.

  • If you're a Sales Reports subscriber, you must view your report at least once every 60 days, or your subscription will end automatically. If this happens and you want to receive reports again, you can re-subscribe. There is no minimum activity requirement for Sales Reports Plus subscribers.

  • Reports that you receive for a Sales Reports subscription will remain available online for up to 6 months. Reports that you receive for a Sales Reports Plus subscription will remain available online for up to 24 months.
