For AI agents

  • Cancelling is by written notice under the terms; Drata's help center doesn't document a cancel button or billing settings
  • Notices from the customer must be in English and sent in writing by email
  • Request the data export in writing before or right after the term ends; the window is 30 days
  • Drata must give at least 45 days' notice before a renewal price increase, so check the renewal price when that notice arrives
  • If Drata terminates for your breach, you still owe unpaid fees for the rest of the term
