    Frequently Asked Questions

    What does McAfee LiveSafe cover?

    McAfee LiveSafe is award-winning antivirus protection that defends against viruses, online threats, and ransomware with online and offline protection. It covers multiple features, such as:

    • Available when you’re enrolled in auto-renewal**, our secure VPN uses bank-grade AES 256-bit encryption to keep your browsing information and online habits protected at home and on-the-go.

    • Free customer support via phone, chat or online for the life of your subscription.

    How many devices can I use with McAfee LiveSafe?

    You can protect an unlimited number of personal devices you own for the duration of your subscription with McAfee LiveSafe.

    Do I need to renew my McAfee LiveSafe subscription?

    When you are enrolled in auto-renew, 30 days before your subscription is scheduled to expire, the credit card on file for your account is automatically billed, and your subscription is extended for another year. 

    If your auto-renewal has been disabled, you will receive a message 30 days before expiry to inform you that your license is about to expire. You can then choose to renew your license for another year or purchase an upgrade.

    What happens if I don't renew McAfee LiveSafe?

    If your McAfee LiveSafe subscription expires, it won't provide you with the same level of protection it does when it's active. Your software will no longer update with the most recent bug fixes or enhancements, so you won’t be protected from the most recent threats. Once your antivirus software's subscription has reached its expiration date, you must decide whether to resubscribe, purchase another solution, or install a free solution.

    What are the requirements and specifications?

    McAfee LiveSafe is compatible with laptops, desktops, tablets and mobile devices. You can find operating system compatibility on our System Requirements page.

    We pledge to remove viruses on your devices or give you your money back, 100% guaranteed*

    * Important Terms and Offer Details:

    • Your subscription starts when you make your purchase, and its length depends on what you choose. It automatically renews until you cancel it. We'll charge your payment method 30 days before your annual term expires - or monthly, based on your selection. For annual terms, you'll get an email reminder 30 days before you are charged. To avoid charges, cancel at least 31 days before expiration. Renewal prices may change. (Vermont residents must opt in to auto-renewal.)
    • Unless stated otherwise, any savings amount shown reflects the difference between the introductory first-term price (for new customers and customers without an existing McAfee subscription) and the renewal subscription price (e.g., the initial price vs. the cost for each year after).
    • Pricing is subject to change. If the renewal price changes, we will notify you in advance so you always know what's going on.
    • You can manage your subscription or change your auto-renewal settings through your My Account page. To learn more, click here.
    • Full refunds are available if requested within 30 days of your initial purchase or 60 days of a renewal charge - though this doesn't apply to monthly subscriptions. Check our Refund Policy for details or reach out to Customer Service.
    • Your subscription is subject to our License Agreement and Privacy Notice. We may add, change or remove product features at any time. Some features won't be available on some devices. See System Requirements for more information.
    • Free Trials: You'll need to provide payment details at sign-up, and you'll be charged at the end of the trial period unless you cancel beforehand.
    • Our unlimited plans only cover household devices that you own for personal, non-commercial use, and are subject to our fair use policy. If you have any trouble adding a device, reach out to Customer Support for help.

    • McAfee gives free perks to customers who sign up for auto-renewal and remain enrolled. Check your eligibility for these benefits on the My Account page. Keep in mind, not all benefits are available everywhere or for every product subscription and System Requirements apply.
    • Virus Protection Pledge (VPP): If we can't remove a virus from your supported device, we'll refund the amount you paid for your current term subscription. This refund doesn't cover any damage or loss caused by a virus. You're responsible for backing up your data to avoid data loss. Check the full terms here: mcafee.com/pledge.

    • Some of our identity monitoring features are unavailable in some countries. Check the License Agreement for more information. Even with the tools and resources we provide, no identity can be completely secure. You can find out more about identity theft coverage here
    • US Only: Fair Credit Reporting Act: You have rights under the FCRA - like disputing inaccurate information in your credit report. If you file a dispute, consumer reporting agencies must look into it and get back to you, but they don't have to change or delete information if it is accurate and was reported legally. This plan can help you file a dispute. The FCRA also allows you do it for free directly with a credit reporting agency without help from a third party.
    • We can't provide identity theft coverage in New York due to regulatory requirements.
    • United States Customers: For residents of states other than the state of New York, the expense reimbursement insurance benefit for members is insured by insurers led by underwriters of Lloyd's, under a master group policy issued in the name of Sontiq, Inc., and all of its subsidiaries for the benefit of members.
