A contract is legally binding and in general you cannot cancel it. The only exception is if the contract states there is a period of time to cancel it. Many people have the wrong information on this topic.

If you signed a contract to buy a product or service at your home or at someplace other than the vendor's "normal place of business", then in most jurisdictions there is an automatic recsission period. However, generally speaking, there's no "cooling off period" for contracts during which you're allowed to freely change your mind and cancel the contract, unless the contract contains a clause specifically granting you that option.
