Does this affect my current backup?

No, your current backup isn’t affected at all. You can continue to rest easy knowing that your important files are being securely backed up and protected from accidental deletions, hard-drive failures or malicious ransomware attacks.

What happens to my data if I choose not to renew?

We’d hate to see you go, but if you choose not to renew your Carbonite subscription, we'll continue to store your data for 60 days if you have automatic renewal enabled or 30 days if you manually renew before it is permanently erased from our servers. After that your data can no longer be restored.
