3. We may restrict login, suspend, or terminate services for accounts involved in abnormal, unlawful, or Terms-violating activity.

3. Service Description and Acceptable Use

3.1 Nature of Services

1. Translation, recognition, and AI-generated outputs are produced by algorithms and third-party services and are for reference only. They do not constitute professional, legal, medical, or other binding advice.
2. Results may be delayed, incomplete, or inaccurate due to network conditions, device performance, accent, background noise, image clarity, and other factors. Please use judgment in real-world scenarios.
3. Some features require Bluetooth headphones or other hardware and may require system permissions such as microphone, camera, photo library, and Bluetooth.

3.2 Free and Licensed Features

1. Some features are free (e.g., AI chat, as shown in the App); others require device authorization or a purchased capability pack.
2. Feature availability, licensing rules, and pricing are as displayed in the App and published by the Operator. We reserve the right to adjust them.

3.3 Prohibited Conduct

You must not:

• Violate applicable laws, public order, or the legitimate rights of others;
• Upload or distribute illegal, violent, pornographic, defamatory, harassing, hateful, or otherwise inappropriate content;
• Use the Services for fraud, pyramid schemes, gambling, or intellectual property infringement;
• Reverse engineer, crack, scrape, interfere with, or compromise the security of the App;
• Use automated means to batch-call APIs or maliciously consume server resources;
• Use interpretation features in venues or contexts that violate local rules or others' privacy;
• Engage in other conduct we reasonably deem inappropriate.

4. User Content and Intellectual Property

1. Your Content: Rights to content you input or generate (e.g., chat history, voice notes, photo translation materials) are determined by law and any agreements with third parties. You warrant that you have lawful rights to uploaded or input content and do not infringe others' intellectual property, privacy, or other rights.
2. License to Us: To provide recognition, translation, storage, sync, export, and related services, you agree that we may process your content as necessary. For personal information processing, see our Privacy Policy.
3. Our Rights: Intellectual property in the App software, UI design, trademarks, logos, documentation, and technology belongs to the Operator or lawful rights holders. You may not copy, modify, distribute, or use them for commercial purposes without written permission.

5. Third-Party Services

The App may integrate third-party services (e.g., cloud, SMS, speech recognition, machine translation, object storage). Those services are provided by third parties under their own terms. We do not expressly or impliedly guarantee their availability, accuracy, or legality, but we will use reasonable efforts to maintain stable service.

6. Changes, Interruption, and Termination

1. We may modify, suspend, or terminate part or all of the Services due to business adjustments, upgrades, or legal requirements, and will notify you via in-app notices, push messages, or other reasonable means.
2. Interruptions due to maintenance, network failure, force majeure, or third-party outages will be remedied where possible; we are not liable for indirect losses arising therefrom.
3. If you materially breach these Terms, we may terminate Services unilaterally and pursue remedies as permitted by law.

7. Disclaimer and Limitation of Liability

1. To the maximum extent permitted by law, the Services are provided "as is" and "as available." We do not warrant uninterrupted, error-free service or fitness for your particular purpose.
2. We are not liable, to the extent permitted by law, for losses arising from your breach of these Terms, misuse of translation/recognition results, device incompatibility, network issues, or force majeure.
3. In any case, the Operator's aggregate liability shall not exceed the fees you paid to us for the disputed service in the preceding twelve months (if any); if no fees were paid, liability is capped at CNY 100, unless otherwise required by law.

8. Protection of Minors

1. If you are under 18, please read these Terms with a guardian and use the Services only with guardian consent.
2. We value protection of minors. Guardians should guide appropriate use and prevent excessive use and privacy risks.

9. Changes to These Terms

We may revise these Terms based on legal changes and business needs. Updated Terms will be published in the App; material changes will be highlighted. Continued use after updates constitutes acceptance.

10. Governing Law and Dispute Resolution

1. These Terms are governed by the laws of the mainland People's Republic of China (excluding conflict-of-law rules).
2. Disputes shall first be resolved through good-faith negotiation; failing that, either party may bring suit in a court of competent jurisdiction at the Operator's domicile.
