Important warning regarding service limitations

Postclic is an independent third-party service, with no affiliation, partnership, or representation link with the brand Hotjar. The use of the brand name is strictly for reference and descriptive purposes, in order to identify the mail recipient. Postclic exclusively offers a mail drafting assistance service and a certified, timestamped, and tracked digital mail sending service. If your subscription was purchased through the Apple App Store or Google Play, the cancellation must be done directly with those platforms.

In the interest of transparency and prevention, it is essential to recall the inherent limitations of any dematerialized sending service, even when timestamped, tracked and certified. Guarantees relate to sending and technical proof, but never to the recipient's behavior, diligence or decisions.

Please note, Postclic cannot:

  • guarantee that the recipient receives, opens or becomes aware of your e-mail.
  • guarantee that the recipient processes, accepts or executes your request.
  • guarantee the accuracy or completeness of content written by the user.
  • guarantee the validity of an incorrect or outdated address.
  • prevent the recipient from contesting the legal scope of the mail.

Cancellation Hotjar: Easy Method

What is Hotjar

Hotjar is a web-based analytics and user-feedback service that records visitor behavior (heatmaps, session recordings) and collects responses (surveys, feedback widgets) to help teams understand how users interact with their websites. It is a subscription service billed through Hotjar’s web app and is commonly used by marketers, product managers, and UX teams to identify usability issues and improve conversions.

How to cancel Hotjar

  • Only the Account Owner can change or cancel a subscription. To stop paid billing without deleting your account, sign into the Hotjar web app and go to Billing → Subscriptions → Manage subscriptions → Change plan, then select the free "Basic" tier (Observe Basic or Ask Basic). The downgraded plan remains active until the end of your current billing cycle.
  • If you want to permanently remove the account and all data, the Account Owner can go to My Details → Delete Your Hotjar Account; deletion is immediate and irreversible.
  • If you are seeking a refund as a new customer, cancel in-app before the renewal date and then contact Hotjar support (see links below) to request the 30‑day money‑back guarantee.
  • Subscription management is web-based; there is no evidence Hotjar subscriptions are cancellable via the Apple App Store or Google Play Store, so do not rely on app-store controls for Hotjar billing.

What happens when you cancel

When you downgrade to the free Basic plan, your paid features remain available until the current billing cycle ends; Hotjar does not immediately terminate paid access on downgrade. If you choose to delete your Hotjar account via My Details, deletion happens immediately and permanently removes the account and all stored data.

Downgrading does not automatically generate a refund. Deleting the account does not guarantee a refund either; refund eligibility follows Hotjar’s published refund policy and timelines. If you leave tracking code on your site after downgrade or deletion, it will stop collecting data for paid features according to the account status - remove the code if you no longer want any Hotjar activity.

Will I get a refund?

Hotjar offers a 30‑day money‑back guarantee for new customers: if you cancel within the first 30 days of a new subscription (monthly or annual), a full refund may be possible, but you must cancel in‑app before the renewal date and then contact Hotjar support to request the refund. After a subscription has renewed, Hotjar’s policy states no refunds are granted for partially used days, months, or recurring subscriptions canceled post‑renewal.

If you note erroneous GST charges (or other tax issues) in Canada, Hotjar may issue a partial refund or credit note if reported within the same quarter; they cannot regenerate the original invoice but can issue a credit adjustment. Always contact Hotjar support promptly and keep transaction records when disputing charges. See Hotjar’s refund policy for details: Hotjar Refund Policy.

Hotjar plans and pricing

Plan Price Period Features / Notes
Annual (USD $149) C$238 (approx, pre-tax) Annual Standard paid plan billed in USD; CAD amount based on exchange rate
Annual (~20 CAD/month equivalent) C$244.40 (annual total) Annual User-reported actual charge in CAD for an annual plan

Hotjar bills primarily in USD and does not publish retail prices in CAD; the final CAD charge on your card will reflect the exchange rate and any applicable taxes (GST). The above figures are examples reported by users and are approximate; consult your billing statement for exact charges.

Your consumer rights in Canada

Under Canadian consumer protection practices, digital subscription services commonly provide a cooling‑off or refund period; Hotjar’s 30‑day money‑back guarantee for new subscribers aligns with that expectation. If you believe Hotjar’s policies have been applied unfairly - such as refusing a proportional refund after a renewal or making the service unusable after renewal - you may pursue recourse with your card issuer (chargeback) or your provincial consumer protection agency.

Because Hotjar charges GST for Canadian customers, incorrect GST application should be raised promptly (within the same quarter) so Hotjar can issue adjustments or credit notes consistent with tax practice. Keep receipts and correspondence to support any tax or refund claim.

Customer experiences

Reviews are mixed. Many users praise Hotjar for easy integration (including Shopify), intuitive heatmaps and session recordings, and useful UX insights - Capterra reviews show generally high ratings in Canada for usability and value. Other reviewers (for example on Trustpilot) report frustrations with customer support response times, difficulties obtaining refunds or navigating in‑app upgrade flows, and dissatisfaction over pricing changes or perceived sudden price increases. Some users also report limitations with recording certain traffic types and gaps in documentation. These experiences suggest Hotjar is powerful for UX research but that billing and support edge cases can be a pain point for some customers.

Documentation checklist

  • Account Owner name and email (confirm you are the Account Owner)
  • Subscription invoices and payment receipts (dates, amounts, currency)
  • Screenshot of your current plan page and Billing → Subscriptions page
  • Cancellation confirmation screenshots or emails from Hotjar
  • Support correspondence (ticket numbers, dates) if you requested a refund
  • Payment method details or card statement lines for charge disputes
  • If sending written notice, proof of posting (registered mail receipt / tracking number)

Common mistakes

Common errors include attempting to cancel from a non‑owner account (only the Account Owner can change plans), waiting until after a renewal to request a refund (Hotjar’s policy disallows refunds after renewal in most cases), and assuming app‑store subscription controls apply - Hotjar billing appears to be managed through its web app, not the Apple App Store or Google Play. Another frequent mistake is not saving cancellation confirmation and support ticket details, which makes refunds or disputes harder to prove.

Also avoid removing the Hotjar tracking code before downgrading if you need session recordings or data for support evidence; conversely, if you wish to stop all tracking immediately, remove the code and document that change.

Comparative recap

Method Refund Difficulty
Downgrade to Basic via web app (Billing → Subscriptions) Refund only if within 30‑day new‑customer window and you contact support; otherwise no Easy
Delete account via My Details → Delete Your Hotjar Account No automatic refund; refund possible only under 30‑day policy if conditions met Moderate (irreversible action)
Request refund (cancel in‑app + contact support within 30 days) Full refund possible for new subscriptions if conditions met Moderate (requires timely action and support correspondence)
Attempt cancellation via App Store / Google Play Not applicable / unlikely to work (Hotjar billing is web-based) High (unsupported path)

After cancelling

After you downgrade or delete an account, keep the following steps in mind: export any data you need before deletion, remove or disable Hotjar tracking code from your site if you want to stop all activity immediately, and monitor your bank or card statement for any unexpected charges. If you requested a refund, track support ticket responses and keep copies of all correspondence.
