Quick Facts
Watch Out
Google One storage is shared across Gmail, Google Drive, and Google Photos. Once your plan expires and you exceed 15GB free, all three services are affected simultaneously.
If you exceed the free 15GB quota: Gmail stops sending and receiving email, Drive stops syncing, and Photos stops backing up.
If you remain over quota for 2 years, Google may permanently delete your content across Gmail, Drive, and Photos. There is no warning email before deletion.
Google One plans cover the entire Google account — you can share storage with up to 5 family members on some plans. Cancelling affects all members.
Annual plans have no prorated refund. If you cancel mid-year, you lose the remaining months with no credit back.
The 100GB plan ($1.99/month) is the entry tier. 200GB is $2.99/month, 2TB is $9.99/month. Each tier has its own subscription — upgrading creates a new subscription, not a modification.
What Happens After You Cancel
Access
You keep your extra storage until the end of your billing period. After that, your account reverts to the 15GB free tier.
Your data
All your files, photos, and emails are retained but become inaccessible if you exceed the 15GB free quota. If you stay over quota for 2 years, Google may permanently delete content across Gmail, Drive, and Photos.
