Please select the subscription tier that suits your needs. The Company reserves the right to adjust tier categories, names, and rights and interests from time to time, and will notify you of any such changes through effective and appropriate channels, such as an in-app message, platform announcement, platform documentation, account pop-up notification, email, or official community channel. Any such changes will apply prospectively and will not reduce the rights and interests attached to a subscription period you have already paid for and are actively using, except as required by applicable law.

# 3.2 User Rights and Interests

3.2.1 After you subscribe to the Astron Agent Subscription Service, you will receive exclusive subscription rights, such as one-click deployment of Astron Agent and out-of-the-box Skills. (The specific rights and interests are subject to the actual display on the product page and the service rights page. Subscription rights and interests may be updated from time to time by the Platform to improve the user experience.)

3.2.2 After you subscribe to the Astron Agent Subscription Service, you will receive monthly member credits (the specific amount is shown on the purchase page). Users with a Subscription Account can purchase additional credits as needed within the validity period of the package; the validity period of additionally purchased credits is shown on the relevant page. Additional credits purchases are not currently available to users with a Regular Account. You can check your credits and the corresponding validity period under “Credits Management” on the Astron Agent conversation page.

3.2.3 Within the validity period of your subscription, you may also use credits to redeem additional functional services, which will be marked prominently on the product page. Please read the relevant prompts carefully before deciding whether to redeem credits. Choosing not to redeem credits for additional functional services will not affect the exclusive subscription rights you have already obtained for the validity period of your subscription.

# 3.3 Usage Rules

3.3.1 Once you complete the applicable purchase steps and your payment is confirmed, your subscription will be activated and you will obtain the corresponding rights as a user of the Astron Agent Subscription Service. The validity period and scope of the rights you obtain are subject to the subscription tier you selected at the time of purchase, the corresponding rights included in that package, and the description on the relevant product page.

3.3.2 As the Platform’s services continue to be upgraded, the subscription rights and interests you have purchased may be adjusted during the validity period in line with the Astron Agent subscription policy then in effect. We will notify you of any such adjustment in advance, and you can review the specific details in your account. No adjustment implemented by us shall operate to lower, diminish or otherwise prejudice your existing service-related rights and interests.

3.3.3 Any service you have subscribed to may only be used while logged in to the associated Subscription Account. Please refer to the iFLYTEK Astron Agent User Service Agreement for provisions on the management and security of your Subscription Account.

3.3.4 After the subscription service term you have activated expires at 23:59 UTC on the expiration date, if you do not renew or purchase another type of subscription package, your Subscription Account will revert to a Regular Account and you will no longer be entitled to the corresponding subscription benefits.

3.3.6 We do not use the content of your conversations with Astron Agent or its AI-generated responses to train or optimize our models. Any processing of your data in connection with the Service is limited to providing, maintaining, securing, and improving the Service itself, in accordance with our Privacy Policy.

# 3.4 Credits Service

3.4.1 “Credits” are a virtual tool provided by us for your consumption of Astron Agent-related functions and services on the Platform. You can use credits to redeem AI services and functions related to Astron Agent, including but not limited to model tokens and Skill invocations (see the relevant product and service pages for the specific number of credits required). Different package tiers provide different amounts of credits per month. Except where applicable law grants you a mandatory right to a refund or withdrawal that cannot be excluded (see Section 4.2.3), once a credits recharge is completed, it is non-refundable, and credits cannot be redeemed back into fiat currency or any other payment currency. credits may only be redeemed for the functions or services described in this Agreement.

3.4.2 The validity period of credits varies by credits type. You can check your credits balance and your acquisition and consumption records under “Credits Management” on the Astron Agent conversation page, as further detailed on the relevant product and service pages. These records are the authoritative basis for your use of credits. If you dispute a credits record, please contact us using the details in Article 10, and we will correct any confirmed error following investigation.

3.4.3 Fees for recharging or purchasing credits will be charged by the Company or its designated payment partner. Payment channel providers may apply their own handling fees for each recharge method, which are borne by you. Please review the applicable handling fees before selecting your recharge method.

3.4.4 The Platform encourages rational spending; please purchase credits according to your actual needs. When recharging, please carefully confirm the device, account, or phone number bound to the recharge, and the recharge amount. If your interests are harmed because of your own incorrect input, wrong account, or misunderstanding of the billing method, the resulting loss will be borne by you, and the Company will not be liable.

3.4.5 If the Company discovers a processing error caused by a system fault or other reason, it may correct the error regardless of whether the error benefited the Company or you. If the error caused you to receive fewer credits than you were entitled to, the Company will credit the shortfall to your account as soon as reasonably possible after confirming the error. If the error caused you to receive more credits than you were entitled to, the Company may deduct the excess from your account.

You warrant that any content you input, upload, submit, publish, display, or otherwise provide through the Platform — including agents, text, URLs, code, data, or other materials — is either original to you or used with valid authorization (including any necessary sub-license), and does not infringe the intellectual property, image, reputation, privacy, or other legitimate rights of any third party. You are responsible for any breach of this warranty. We may, at our discretion, remove infringing content after receiving and verifying a complaint from the relevant rights holder in accordance with the Platform’s rules.

# 9. Modification and Disclaimer

9.1 Paying for services through third-party payment channels carries inherent risk (including account theft or payment fraud by criminals), which may cause you financial loss. The Company does not control and has no legal obligation to pursue such criminals or compensate you for their conduct, though we will provide reasonable assistance, within legal limits, to help minimize your loss. Assistance we provide is not an admission of legal liability.

9.2 The Company cannot always foresee or prevent technical or other risks, including service interruptions or loss of your data caused by force majeure, government action, network issues, system or equipment failure (including server downtime, system instability, or database failure), power outages, third-party service defects, hacking, or malware, and is not liable for resulting loss, though we will use reasonable efforts to give advance notice where possible.

9.3 If a service or right you purchased is abnormally interrupted or unavailable due to the Company’s fault, the Company will take reasonable steps to restore it promptly and will provide reasonable compensation (such as extending the validity period or providing free trial rights, as actually available), using reasonable efforts to protect your interests.

9.4 You are responsible for any loss or liability arising from the Company’s inability to provide a paid service, or an error in providing it, due to your own actions, including: (i) failure, loss, or suspension of your User Account; (ii) loss caused by a third-party payment institution or bound account, including your use of an unauthenticated or third-party account, or your account being frozen; (iii) loss caused by your disclosure of your account password to others; or (iv) loss caused by your intentional act or gross negligence.

9.5 If the payment process involves services provided by a third party, you must also comply with that third party’s applicable terms. Disputes arising from those third-party services will be resolved between you and the third party, and the Company will not be liable in that regard.

9.6 The Company may decide whether to continue providing existing paid services and rights, or to modify or adjust them, based on factors such as its business planning, market conditions, operational results, and regulatory changes. The paid services and rights you can actually use are subject to what is available at the relevant time, and the Company will use reasonable efforts to protect your interests.

9.7 The paid services and rights we provide may be affected by factors beyond our control. We do not warrant that: (i) the paid services and rights are fully suited to your requirements or expectations; (ii) your use of them will be uninterrupted, timely, secure, reliable, or error-free; or (iii) any errors will always be corrected promptly. We welcome your feedback on how to improve the Platform and will give it due consideration as we continue to optimize our functions and services.

# 12. Governing Law and Dispute Resolution

12.1 This Agreement is governed by the laws of Singapore, without regard to its conflict-of-laws principles, except that this choice of law does not deprive you of any protection to which you are entitled under the mandatory consumer protection laws of your country of habitual residence, where those laws provide greater protection than this Agreement.

12.2 Any dispute, controversy, or claim arising out of or relating to this Agreement shall first be addressed through good-faith negotiation between the parties. If not resolved within 30 days, either party may refer the dispute to arbitration administered by the Singapore International Arbitration Centre (SIAC) under the SIAC Rules then in force, seated in Singapore, conducted in English, before a sole arbitrator. Nothing in this Article prevents you from bringing a claim before the small-claims court or consumer tribunal of your jurisdiction of residence where applicable law entitles you to do so.
