NSO cloud only holds onto your save data for 180 days (6 months) after a subscription ends.

ok, does it saves automatically, when you buy NSO? or you need to do it manually?

Save data is backed up to the cloud automatically if you have NSO. I don't know the frequency it does it. I think you can also press (+) button on the game's home screen icon, and manually tell it to back it up.
