This data will be added to your account when your plan data renews each month and does not roll over. This additional 200MB is not ringfenced for use in connection with the Content Apps.

15. We may add or remove Content Apps from either of the Data Passes at any time. We will notify you at least 30 days in advance of removing any Content Apps, unless there are reasons we can’t (for example, if a content provider doesn’t give us enough notice that they’re withdrawing their content).
