The definition of “child” or “children” should take into account applicable laws as well as national and regional cultural customs.

AUTO-RENEWABLE SUBSCRIPTIONS

XI-ART outlines an auto-renewable subscription as one that allows a user to purchase dynamic content for a set period of time. Once that set period of time ends, the subscription renews again for the same amount of time. This continues until the user cancels the subscription. These subscriptions services allow users to choose their plan and the frequency of renewal. After the user makes a choice of a subscription, XI-ART requests the user to approve it. When the subscription starts, it is recorded under the user’s ID. Respectively subscription displays the date of renewal and the term. After listed, cancellation is easy. All a user needs to do is open up the particular subscription under manage subscription and hit “cancel subscription”.
In case of any queries relating to the requesting a refund or Reporting a problem relating to auto renewable subscriptions in Android platform, he is being strictly advised to contact XI-ART within 48hours of the issue/query, delaying to which the user may be refunded with only in-game virtual items not the money/amount.

LEGAL USES
