Welcome to Guali. These terms are an agreement between you and Beijing Huocong Technology Co., Ltd. covering the Guali app and related services. By downloading, installing, or using the app, you confirm that you have read, understood, and accepted these terms.
The service and its content
Guali offers cultural and entertainment content built on the traditional calendar, the stems-and-branches cycle, and hexagram rules: daily readings, date-specific reports, annual analysis, check-in talismans, an AI assistant, and optional memberships and consultation credits.
Readings are generated by rules and algorithms with AI assistance and may be incomplete or inaccurate. They are not medical, psychological, legal, financial, marital, career, or other professional advice, and cannot replace a qualified professional. Do not make significant decisions based on them, and we make no promise about accuracy, fulfilment, or any particular outcome.
Accounts and acceptable use
You can sign in with a mobile phone number and an SMS verification code. Keep your account, device, and verification codes secure; your account is for you alone and may not be transferred, lent, or sold.
You must not engage in unlawful activity, spread unlawful, infringing, or harmful content, crack or reverse engineer the app, scrape data, register accounts in bulk, or interfere with the service. If you breach these rules, we may restrict, suspend, or terminate your access.
Subscriptions, payment, and refunds
Monthly and annual memberships are auto-renewing subscriptions. Prices and benefits are shown on the in-app purchase screen. Subscriptions are billed through your Apple account and renew automatically within 24 hours before the end of the current period; you can manage or cancel in Settings → Apple Account → Subscriptions on iPhone, and access continues until the end of the current period.
Refunds are handled by Apple under App Store policy; we cannot issue refunds directly but can help you submit a request. Consultation credits and similar items are consumable virtual goods, credited immediately, usable only inside the app, non-transferable, and not redeemable for cash. Except where the law requires otherwise or Apple approves a refund, they are non-refundable.
Intellectual property, termination, and liability
The app's interface, copy, graphics, trademarks, code, and readings belong to us or the relevant rights holders. We grant you a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable licence to use this content within the app. You may not copy, adapt, distribute, sell, or use it commercially without written permission.
We may suspend the service for maintenance, upgrades, network failures, or events beyond our control, and may adjust or retire features. We may suspend or terminate your access if you seriously breach these terms. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we are not liable for indirect losses, lost profits, lost data, or loss of goodwill, but this clause does not exclude liability that cannot be excluded by law.
Changes and governing law
We may update these terms and will notify you in the app or on this page; updated terms take effect when published, and continued use means you accept them.
These terms are governed by the laws of the People's Republic of China (excluding, for this purpose, the laws of Hong Kong, Macau, and Taiwan). If a dispute arises, we will first try to resolve it amicably; if that fails, either party may bring the matter before the competent people's court at the operator's place of residence.
