Subscription Services may not be compatible with all of our games.

You authorize StarUnion to charge the Subscription Amount from the payment account you provide when you sign up for a Subscription or the account you bound up with your Game Account (“Payment Account”). StarUnion may terminate your Subscription if you have insufficient funds and no Payment Method has been set for automatic renewal on the payment date or if payment is unsuccessful for any other reason.

Restrictions may apply to the availability of Free Trials. Certain game services, contents and benefits of full Subscriptions may not be available or may be limited during the Free Trial.

YOUR FREE TRIAL MAY AUTOMATICALLY CONVERT INTO A FULL SUBSCRIPTION AT THE END OF THE FREE TRIAL PERIOD UNLESS YOU TURN OFF AUTOMATIC RENEWAL BEFORE THE END OF THE FREE TRIAL. If you initiate the full Subscription before the trial period expires, the remaining unused Free Trial period shall be deemed as abandoned. Upon conversion of your Free Trial to a Subscription, and on an ongoing basis thereafter, we will charge you the Subscription Service prices unless and until you turn off automatic renewal as described in Section 13.2.

13.4 Modification. We reserve the right to adjust Subscription Service pricing and Subscription period. We may change, suspend, or discontinue any Subscriptions, including any Free Trial and related services, at any time at our sole discretion.
