The information provided when using the Services is not intended for distribution to or use by any person or entity in any jurisdiction or country where such distribution or use would be contrary to law or regulation or which would subject us to any registration requirement. Those who access the Services from other locations do so on their own initiative and are solely responsible for compliance with local laws.

All refund requests are ultimately processed according to the refund policies of the respective payment platform (Apple App Store, Google Play Store, or Paddle).

6. SUBSCRIPTIONS

Billing and Renewal

Some parts of the App are available only with a paid subscription (a "Subscription Plan"). If you purchase a Subscription Plan, you will be charged the subscription fee, plus any applicable taxes and other charges ("Subscription Fee") at the beginning of your Subscription Plan and each Subscription Plan period thereafter (e.g., monthly or annually, as specified at purchase).

Subscription Plans may be purchased either:

  • as an In‑App Purchase through the Apple App Store or Google Play Store for mobile apps; or

  • via Paddle on the web.

All billing, renewals, cancellations, and refunds are handled by the respective platform (Apple, Google, or Paddle) and governed by that platform’s terms and conditions. Your Subscription Plan will renew automatically at the end of the applicable period unless you cancel. Renewal rates are subject to change; you will be notified of any rate change and provided the option to cancel in accordance with these Terms and applicable law.

Free Trial

We may offer a 7‑day free trial to new users. After the trial ends, charges apply per your selected plan unless you cancel before the trial period ends. Trial management and any trial-to-paid transition are handled by the platform where you initiated the trial (Apple, Google, or Paddle).

Cancellation

You may cancel your Subscription Plan at any time:

  • From the Lycsir app: Go to Settings > Subscriptions and tap the "Cancel subscription" button, which will redirect you to the relevant store/payment processor (Apple App Store, Google Play Store or Paddle) to complete the cancellation.

    • Android: Open the Google Play app, tap your profile > Payments & subscriptions > Subscriptions, and cancel the relevant subscription.

    • Web: Manage or cancel via your Paddle account portal.

Cancellations take effect at the end of the current billing period. There are no refunds or credits for partial periods, except as required by law or the applicable platform’s policies. In‑App Purchases can only be consumed within the App, cannot be canceled after completion, and cannot be redeemed for cash or transferred.
