MiYu Note Refund Policy (Last Updated: June 16, 2026)
- We provide all Users with a 30 calendar-day no-reason full refund right (see Section 3).
- After the 30-day no-reason refund period expires, you may still apply for a pro-rata refund under Section 3 of this MiYu Note Refund Policy.
- You can submit a refund request at any time in the App (Profile → My Subscription → Request Refund) without contacting customer service.
1. Scope of Application
1.1 Applicable Subjects
This Policy applies to paid subscriptions ordered by you as a Personal User through the MiYu Note official client, official website or authorized channels.
1.2 Non-Applicable Situations
- Enterprise / team subscriptions (if introduced in the future): governed by a dedicated enterprise agreement;
- Subscriptions ordered through third-party top-up services or non-official channels: please contact the relevant top-up provider;
- Additional metered services (such as extra storage expansion, AI quotas, etc.): handled according to their respective usage rules; see the subscription page for details.
1.3 Scope and Territory
- This Policy applies to paid subscriptions ordered through MiYu Note official channels.
- The Service is currently primarily offered to users in Mainland China. If you access the Service from other regions, you remain bound by the general terms of this Policy, and the mandatory laws of your jurisdiction shall still prevail.
1.4 Language Versions
- The Simplified Chinese version of this Policy is the authoritative version.
- We currently provide, without limitation, the following languages: Simplified Chinese, Traditional Chinese, English, German and French. The actual list of supported languages follows the language list in the application.
- In case of any inconsistency between language versions, the Simplified Chinese version shall prevail.
2. Your Statutory Rights (Reference)
2.1 Note on Mainland China Law
The current laws of Mainland China do not establish a unified statutory cooling-off period for online digital content subscription services. However, pursuant to the Consumer Rights Protection Law of the People’s Republic of China and the Civil Code of the People’s Republic of China, you continue to enjoy the following statutory rights:
- The right to seven-day no-reason return (applicable only to the sale of goods by operators through online, TV, telephone or mail-order means that do not affect personal safety or life and health; specific applicability shall be determined by the laws and regulatory interpretations then in effect);
- Where the Service is defective or does not conform to the agreement, the statutory right to request repair, replacement, return, remediation or compensation for losses;
- Where the operator engages in fraud, the statutory right to claim triple compensation (with a floor of CNY 500 where the amount is below that) and other punitive damages.
2.2 Relationship to this Policy
Section 3 and the subsequent sections of this Policy constitute additional commitments by us to you and shall neither affect nor diminish any statutory rights you enjoy under the aforementioned laws and regulations.
3. Our Refund Rights
3.1 30-Day No-Reason Full Refund Right
To demonstrate our confidence in the quality of our product, we provide all Users with a 30-calendar-day no-reason full refund right:
- Scope: You have subscribed to the Service through MiYu Note official channels and you apply for a refund within thirty (30) calendar days from the date the subscription contract is concluded.
- Refund amount: 100% full refund (see calculation method and exceptions in Section 3.4).
- How to exercise: see Section 3.5.
- Frequency limit: This right is not subject to a system-level frequency limit; you may apply for a no-reason full refund within 30 days for each subscription.
We do not set a system-level frequency limit in order to maintain good faith towards the vast majority of normal Users; anti-abuse and anti-fraud measures regarding refund rights are handled through our operational risk-control process; see Section 3.6.
3.2 Pro-Rata Refund After the 30-Day No-Reason Refund Period
After the 30-calendar-day no-reason refund period expires, you may still apply for a refund, but full refund no longer applies; the amount will be calculated on a pro-rata basis as follows:
Refundable amount = Subscription fee paid × (Remaining subscription-period days ÷ Total paid subscription-period days)
Where:
- Remaining subscription-period days: from the date your refund application is successfully reviewed and approved, until the end of the currently paid Subscription Period;
- Total paid subscription-period days: the actual total number of days covered by your current paid subscription. The current Subscription Periods come in four tiers:
- Monthly: 30 days;
- Quarterly: 90 days;
- Semi-Annual: 180 days;
- Annual: 365 days; (Specific values are subject to the product description on your subscription order page.)
- The result is rounded to two decimal places using banker’s rounding;
- When the remaining refundable amount calculated by the above formula is less than 1 (in the currency supported by the data centre), you may not apply for a refund;
- If your current Subscription Period has already expired at the time of your refund request, or if we have taken restriction / termination measures against you under Section 7 of the User Service Agreement, you may not apply for a refund under this section.
Examples:
| Subscription Period | Subscription Fee | Days Used Before Refund Request | Refundable |
|---|---|---|---|
| Monthly (30 days) | ¥30 | 5 days | ¥30 × (30-5) ÷ 30 = ¥25.00 |
| Quarterly (90 days) | ¥78 | 20 days | ¥78 × (90-20) ÷ 90 = ¥60.67 |
| Semi-Annual (180 days) | ¥168 | 40 days | ¥168 × (180-40) ÷ 180 = ¥130.67 |
| Annual (365 days) | ¥298 | 100 days | ¥298 × (365-100) ÷ 365 = ¥216.36 |
3.3 Starting Point for Multi-Period Subscriptions
If you prepay for multiple consecutive Subscription Periods (e.g., a one-time purchase of 2 or 3 years), the “Total paid subscription-period days” used for pro-rata calculation shall be the continuous period actually covered by your payment, and shall not be calculated separately for each individual period.
3.4 Refund Principles and Exceptions
For refund requests to which this section applies, we undertake:
- No deduction of third-party payment-channel fees;
- No deduction of fees corresponding to time used (only applicable under the 30-day right in Section 3.1; under the pro-rata calculation in Section 3.2, fees for time used are treated as consumed and are deducted on a pro-rata basis);
- No deduction of coupon-credited amounts (whether borne by the platform or by us);
- No charge for cross-border payment exchange-rate differences;
- However: if you have used additional metered services (such as extra storage expansion, AI quotas, etc.), the used portion shall be deducted separately in accordance with the deduction rules expressly disclosed on the subscription page.
3.5 How to Exercise
- In-App self-service (recommended, fastest): Profile → My Subscription → Request Refund
- Email: see Appendix A “Contact Information”
3.6 Anti-Abuse and Operational Risk Control
We reserve the right to conduct operational risk-control reviews of the use of refund rights in order to prevent malicious abuse of the refund provisions and to protect the legitimate rights of normal Users. Specifically:
- Subjects of review: the frequency of refund requests; subscribe-refund-resubscribe loop patterns; the correlation of the same payment method / device / account / recipient information; whether accompanied by other abnormal behaviour (such as abnormal device fingerprints, bulk registrations, signs of cashing out, etc.).
- Operational measures we may take: during or after the review, we may independently take any one or more of the following measures:
- Require you to supplement identity verification, order vouchers or explanations of usage;
- Suspend the current refund pending the outcome of the review;
- Refuse to offer you further subscriptions after your current Subscription Period ends (i.e., prohibit the account from continuing to purchase the Service);
- Restrict or permanently ban your account in accordance with Section 7 of the MiYu Note User Service Agreement.
- Criteria: we make determinations based only on reasonable evidence and do not require the standard of judicial proof; typical situations include, without limitation:
- The same account making multiple “subscribe – request refund – resubscribe” cycles within a short period without reasonable traces of use;
- Associated accounts (same payment method, device, recipient, etc.) showing obviously abnormal aggregate refund frequency;
- Registration or purchase conducted primarily for the purpose of obtaining refunds, clearly inconsistent with the purpose of normal product use;
- Any other conduct that we reasonably determine to constitute abuse of refund rights.
- No impact on refunds already obtained before this section applies: our application of anti-abuse measures shall not affect any refund rights you have lawfully obtained before the measures were taken.
- Appeals: if you believe our determination is incorrect, you may appeal through Appendix A “Contact Information”. We will respond within fifteen (15) business days of receiving the appeal.
4. Notes on Subscription Renewal
4.1 No Automatic Renewal Currently
We currently do not provide automatic renewal. After each Subscription Period ends, if you wish to continue using the paid features, you must renew manually by yourself through the application or other official channels before your subscription expires.
4.2 Pre-Renewal Reminder
We will remind you via in-app notification or email no later than seven (7) calendar days before the end of your current subscription so that you can renew in time.
4.3 Manual Renewal Treated as a New Subscription
Each successful manual renewal is treated as a new subscription transaction to which the 30-day / pro-rata refund rules set out in Section 3 of this Policy apply (the withdrawal period is recalculated from the date of each payment). How to exercise: see Section 3.5.
5. Refund Amount and Calculation
5.1 General Rule for Refund Calculation
The refund amount is determined in the following order of priority:
- Under the 30-day no-reason full refund right in Section 3.1: 100% full refund (after deducting the metered-services portion used, in accordance with Section 3.4);
- Under the pro-rata calculation in Section 3.2: the amount calculated by the formula;
- Partial refunds under consumer protection law: see Section 5.2.
5.2 Exception: Partial Refunds Under Consumer Protection Law
If you assert within a Subscription Period that “the Service is defective or does not conform to the agreement” and we verify and accept your claim, the following remedies may be applied:
- Refund of the amount paid for the current period (pro-rata or in full, as agreed between us);
- Provision of an equivalent extension of service;
- Or other remedies in accordance with the Consumer Rights Protection Law of the People’s Republic of China and the Civil Code of the People’s Republic of China.
5.3 Refund Method
- Refunds shall be returned via the original route to the account you originally paid from;
- We do not support changing the refund channel;
- If the original payment account has been closed, frozen or cannot receive refunds, we will negotiate an alternative with you;
- For cross-border payments, refunds shall be made in the original payment currency and exchange rate, without charging any FX fees.
5.4 Refund Settlement Time
- Our processing time: refund initiated within seven (7) business days after approval;
- Your bank or payment-channel processing time: typically 1–15 business days;
- Where applicable law provides for a stricter time limit, that time limit shall prevail.
6. Circumstances in Which Refunds Are Not Available
We will only refuse refunds to the extent expressly permitted by law. Possible non-refundable situations include:
6.1 Exceeded Time Limit or Below Minimum Refundable Amount
- Beyond the time limits stipulated in Section 3 of this Policy;
- Or where the pro-rata refundable amount is less than 1 (in the currency supported by the data centre);
- and no other statutory ground for refund applies.
6.2 Serious Violation (Requires Express Prior Stipulation)
- During the subscription, serious breach of this Service’s User Service Agreement has occurred, including without limitation:
- Creating or disseminating content endangering national security, terrorism, pornography or other seriously illegal content;
- Engaging in cyber-attacks, fraud, phishing, gambling, pyramid selling or other conduct endangering public safety;
- Violating export-control or sanctions regulations;
- A judicial or administrative authority expressly requiring refusal of service or refund.
- Such conduct must be expressly stipulated in advance in the User Service Agreement as “resulting in forfeiture of refund rights” (see Section 5.2 of the MiYu Note User Service Agreement).
6.3 Purchases Through Non-Official Channels
- For subscriptions purchased through unauthorized top-up channels or grey-market channels, please contact the top-up provider.
- Where failure to receive the Service is indeed attributable to the top-up provider, we may assist in good faith but are under no obligation to do so.
6.4 Metered Services Already Used
- Extra storage expansion, AI quotas and other metered services that have been used shall be deducted by usage;
- In such cases: refund amount = subscription fee − used portion of metered services;
- The deduction rules for such metered services are disclosed on the subscription page, and your prior consent is obtained at the time of subscription.
6.5 Abuse of Refund Rights
Using the Service’s refund policy in a “subscribe – refund – resubscribe” loop with the intent to avoid payment over the long term constitutes a breach of this Policy. We may, based on reasonable evidence, refuse subsequent refund applications, and in serious cases may take measures in accordance with Section 5.4 of the User Service Agreement.
