Coursera replaces fixed 7-day free trial wording with variable, checkout-page-defined trial periods

The terms no longer state a standard 7-day free trial. They now say certain subscriptions may have a free trial, with availability and length shown on the checkout page. Cancellation, refund and withdrawal-period clauses now refer to 'the free trial period' instead of 7 days.

Taken from you

  • Guaranteed standard 7-day free trial no longer promised in the terms
  • Trial length and availability now set at checkout, not fixed in the terms
