Ancestry Subscription, Cancellation, and Refund Help
Ancestry subscriptions may renew automatically unless canceled before the renewal deadline. Customers should sign in and check Account Settings for subscription status, renewal date, billing method, cancellation options, and related subscriptions or add-ons.
Refund eligibility can depend on the subscription type, purchase route, timing, free-trial terms, renewal terms, and whether the subscription was purchased directly through Ancestry or through a third party such as an app store. Save your cancellation confirmation, renewal notice, receipt, billing date, charge amount, and support case number.
AncestryDNA Kit and Privacy Help
For AncestryDNA issues, have your order number, kit activation code, sample tube code, account email, purchase date, shipping information, and kit status ready before contacting support. If you need a replacement DNA kit, use the AncestryDNA support route listed above.
Ancestry provides settings for managing DNA results and privacy choices. Customers may be able to delete DNA results through DNA settings and may need to contact Member Services to request destruction of a biological sample. DNA-related decisions can be permanent, so review Ancestry’s official privacy and DNA help resources before deleting results or changing sharing settings.
