Account registration, use, and cancellation

Registration

{{brand}} and related services provide you with a registration channel. You have the right to choose a legal character combination as your account and set a password that meets security requirements. The account and password set by the user are the credentials for the user to log in and use {{brand}} and related services. If you are a minor, {{brand}} will legally restrict your usage behavior in accordance with relevant national laws and regulations and regulatory requirements.
You understand and commit that your chosen account must not violate national laws and the relevant rules of {{brand}}. You may not engage in any acts that harm national interests, damage the legitimate rights and interests of other citizens, or harm social morality. Your account name, avatar, profile, and other registration information and personal information must not include illegal or undesirable information. You may not open an account in the name of others without permission (including but not limited to impersonating others' names, titles, images, etc. in ways that can cause confusion) and may not maliciously register {{brand}} accounts (including but not limited to frequently registering or batch registering accounts). {{brand}} has the right to review the information you submit. You must comply with legal regulations, socialist system, national interests, citizens' legitimate rights and interests, social public order, moral standards, and the authenticity of information during the account registration and usage process, adhering to the “seven bottom line” requirements.
When registering, using, and managing your account, you should ensure the authenticity of the identity information you fill in during registration. Please use real, accurate, legal, and effective relevant identification materials and necessary information (including your name, email address, contact number, contact address, etc.) when registering and managing your account. If there are special provisions in national laws and regulations, you need to fill in true identity information. Please complete real-name verification in accordance with relevant legal provisions so that we can contact you when necessary or provide you with better services, and be sure to update the above relevant information in a timely manner. If the materials you submit or the information you provide is inaccurate, untrue, illegal, or if we have reason to suspect that the materials are erroneous, untrue, or illegal, you may not be able to use {{brand}} or its services, or some functions may be restricted during the use process.

Usage

Your account is for your personal use only. Without the written consent of {{brand}}, it is prohibited to gift, lend, rent, transfer, sell, or otherwise permit others to use the account in any form. If {{brand}} discovers or has reasonable grounds to believe that the user is not the original registrant of the account, in order to safeguard account security, {{brand}} has the right to immediately suspend or terminate the provision of services to the registered account or cancel the account.
You are responsible for maintaining the security and confidentiality of your personal account and password and are fully responsible for all legal responsibilities for activities conducted in the name of the registered account, including but not limited to any data modifications, statements made, payments made on {{brand}} and related services that may lead to any legal responsibility. You should attach great importance to the confidentiality of your account and password and must not disclose your account and password to others under any circumstances. If you find that someone else is using your account without permission or if any other security issues arise, you must immediately notify {{brand}}.
If you lose your account or forget your password, you may follow the appeal pathway of {{brand}} to promptly appeal for retrieval of your account or password. You understand and acknowledge that the password retrieval mechanism of {{brand}} only requires consistency between the materials filled in the appeal form and the system records and cannot identify whether the appellant is the legitimate account user. {{brand}} particularly reminds you to keep your account and password secure. After you finish using, be sure to log out safely. If you suffer from account hacking or password loss due to your improper management or other uncontrollable factors, you will bear the corresponding responsibility yourself.
Any issues arising from malicious attacks by others or for yourself or other uncontrollable factors that lead to the theft or loss of your account will be your responsibility, and {{brand}} will not bear any responsibility.
If {{brand}} restricts your use of all or part of your account functions according to this agreement and relevant rules, it may cause you some losses, and you understand that such losses will be borne by you yourself, and {{brand}} will not assume responsibility.

Identity factors are the basis for us to identify your identity, so please keep them safe. Operations conducted and instructions issued using identity factors are regarded as being made by you. If your account, password, or other information is impersonated, stolen, or used illegally due to your own reasons, you will bear the risks and losses that arise. You agree that we may take different verification measures to identify your identity based on different terminals and your usage habits.
