The features, functionality and limitations applicable to the Free Plan shall be determined solely by ConsulTOpen.

ConsulTOpen reserves the unrestricted right to modify, expand, restrict or discontinue any feature available under the Free Plan at any time.

Access to a Free Plan does not create any contractual entitlement to continued availability of any specific feature.

  • promotional subscriptions;
  • introductory offers;
  • referral-based memberships;

  • country;

  • payment availability;
  • business strategy; or

Nothing contained in this Policy guarantees that every Subscription Plan shall be available to every User.

15. Subscription Activation

A Subscription shall become active only after all applicable activation requirements have been successfully satisfied.

Unless expressly stated otherwise by ConsulTOpen, a Subscription shall be deemed activated only when all of the following conditions have been fulfilled:

  • successful payment has been received where the Subscription is a paid plan;
  • payment verification has been successfully completed where applicable;
  • the Subscription has been approved and activated by the Platform;
  • a valid activation record has been generated within the Platform; and
  • the applicable Subscription benefits have been enabled for the User Account.

Until all applicable activation requirements have been satisfied, no Subscription shall be considered active and no contractual obligation shall arise on the part of ConsulTOpen to provide Subscription Benefits.

Where a Free Plan, complimentary membership, promotional subscription or trial programme does not require payment, activation shall occur only after the Platform successfully registers the User's enrolment in accordance with the applicable programme requirements.

The effective commencement date and time of every Subscription shall be determined exclusively by the electronic records maintained by ConsulTOpen, unless manifest error is established.

ConsulTOpen reserves the unrestricted right to delay, suspend or refuse activation of any Subscription where reasonably necessary, including but not limited to:

  • technical failures;
  • security concerns;
  • promotional abuse;
  • duplicate subscriptions;
  • violations of this Policy or the Terms & Conditions;
  • regulatory or legal requirements; or
  • any other circumstance reasonably requiring review by ConsulTOpen.

Such delay, suspension or refusal of activation shall not constitute a breach of this Policy where undertaken in good faith and in accordance with applicable law.

PART III – BILLING, PAYMENTS & RENEWALS

16. Subscription Pricing

The price applicable to each Subscription Plan shall be displayed on the Platform at the time of purchase.

Subscription pricing may vary depending upon:

  • educational institution partnerships;
  • enterprise agreements;
  • regional pricing;
  • applicable taxes;

Users acknowledge that payment processing services are provided by independent third-party payment providers and remain subject to their respective terms and conditions.

18. Subscription Payments

Unless expressly stated otherwise, every paid Subscription shall require successful payment before activation.

No Subscription shall be deemed purchased or activated until:

  • payment has been successfully processed;
  • payment verification has been completed where applicable;
  • the Subscription has been activated by the Platform; and
  • an electronic transaction record has been generated.

Users remain responsible for ensuring that valid payment information is maintained throughout the duration of their Subscription.

19. Automatic Renewals

Where automatic renewal has been enabled by the User or is otherwise applicable to the selected Subscription Plan, the Subscription shall automatically renew upon expiry of the current billing period using the User's selected payment method.

The renewal amount shall ordinarily be charged at the pricing applicable on the renewal date unless expressly stated otherwise by ConsulTOpen.

Users may disable automatic renewal through the Platform where such functionality is made available.

Disabling automatic renewal shall not cancel the current Subscription and Subscription Benefits shall continue until the expiry of the existing billing cycle.

ConsulTOpen reserves the right to introduce, modify or discontinue automatic renewal functionality for any Subscription Plan.

20. Manual Renewals

Users who have not enabled automatic renewal may manually renew their Subscription at any time before or after its expiry.

Manual renewal shall be subject to:

  • availability of the Subscription Plan;
  • payment of the applicable Subscription fee;
  • successful payment processing;
  • continued eligibility;
  • applicable promotional conditions; and
  • any other requirements prescribed by ConsulTOpen.

Renewal shall activate a new Subscription period in accordance with the selected billing cycle.

21. Payment Failures

Where a Subscription renewal payment cannot be successfully processed, ConsulTOpen may, at its sole discretion:

  • automatically retry the payment;
  • notify the User regarding the failed payment;
  • temporarily suspend renewal processing;
  • request an alternative payment method;
  • cancel the pending renewal; or
  • take any other commercially reasonable action.

If payment continues to fail after reasonable retry attempts, the Subscription shall expire upon completion of the current billing period.

Following expiry, the User Account shall ordinarily revert to the Free Plan unless another Subscription is successfully activated.

Failure of payment shall not relieve the User from any outstanding payment obligations lawfully incurred before the expiry of the Subscription.

22. Taxes & Currency

Unless otherwise specified, Subscription charges shall presently be processed in Indian Rupees (INR).

ConsulTOpen reserves the right to support additional currencies for international operations and future Platform expansion.

Applicable taxes, duties, levies, GST or other statutory charges shall be imposed in accordance with applicable law.

Where required under applicable law, appropriate tax deductions or statutory recoveries may be made before processing Subscription payments.

Users remain solely responsible for any taxes, bank charges, foreign exchange charges or payment processing fees imposed upon them by financial institutions or payment providers.

Nothing contained in this Policy guarantees the continued availability of any promotional pricing.

24. Subscription Pricing Errors

Despite commercially reasonable efforts, pricing errors may occasionally occur.

Where an obvious pricing error exists due to:

  • software malfunction;
  • technical error;
  • human error;
  • typographical error;
  • payment gateway malfunction;
  • integration failure; or
  • system failure,

ConsulTOpen reserves the unrestricted right to:

  • cancel the Subscription purchase;
  • correct the pricing;
  • issue an appropriate refund where necessary;
  • request payment of the correct amount before activation; or
  • take any other reasonable corrective action.

Users acknowledge that obvious pricing errors shall not create any contractual entitlement to purchase or renew a Subscription at an incorrect price.

PART IV – SUBSCRIPTION MANAGEMENT

25. Subscription Upgrades

Users may upgrade their Subscription Plan at any time during an active Subscription period, subject to availability and the conditions prescribed by ConsulTOpen.

Where an upgrade is requested, ConsulTOpen may:

  • provide immediate access to the upgraded Subscription Plan;
  • calculate the applicable charges on a prorated basis;
  • adjust the remaining Subscription value towards the upgraded plan;
  • commence a new billing cycle where expressly specified; or
  • apply any other commercially reasonable upgrade mechanism.

The applicable upgrade charges and revised billing details shall be displayed to the User before confirmation of the upgrade.

ConsulTOpen reserves the unrestricted right to modify the upgrade process from time to time.

26. Subscription Downgrades

Users may request to downgrade their Subscription Plan subject to the options made available on the Platform.

Unless expressly stated otherwise by ConsulTOpen, a downgrade shall become effective only upon expiry of the current Subscription period.

Until the downgrade becomes effective, the User shall continue enjoying the benefits of the existing Subscription Plan.

Downgrading a Subscription shall not entitle the User to any refund, credit or partial reimbursement unless expressly provided by ConsulTOpen or required under applicable law.

27. Subscription Cancellation

Users may cancel the renewal of their Subscription at any time through the Platform where such functionality is available.

Cancellation shall prevent future renewal of the Subscription but shall not immediately terminate the current Subscription.

Unless otherwise specified by ConsulTOpen or required by applicable law, Subscription Benefits shall continue until the expiry of the current billing period.

Upon expiry, the Subscription shall not renew unless the User purchases or renews an eligible Subscription Plan.

28. Subscription Refunds

Except where required under applicable law or expressly approved by ConsulTOpen, Subscription purchases shall be non-refundable.

Without limitation, refunds shall ordinarily not be provided for:

  • partial use of a Subscription;
  • unused Subscription Benefits;
  • voluntary cancellation;
  • change of mind;
  • accidental failure to use Subscription features;
  • dissatisfaction arising from features accurately described on the Platform; or
  • expiry of the Subscription period.

Nothing contained in this Policy limits any mandatory consumer rights available under applicable law.

29. Subscription Expiry

Every Subscription shall automatically expire upon completion of its applicable billing period unless:

  • successfully renewed;
  • replaced through an upgraded Subscription;
  • extended by ConsulTOpen;
  • renewed through a promotional programme; or
  • otherwise continued in accordance with this Policy.

Upon expiry, all Subscription Benefits shall cease unless otherwise specified by ConsulTOpen.

30. Reversion to Free Plan

Unless another active Subscription exists, a User Account shall ordinarily revert to the Free Plan immediately upon expiry of a paid Subscription.

Following such reversion:

  • premium features may become inaccessible;
  • Artificial Intelligence usage limits may be reduced;
  • feature availability may change;
  • premium tools may be disabled; and
  • the User may continue accessing those Platform features available under the Free

Plan.

Reversion to the Free Plan shall not affect the User Account or previously generated records unless otherwise provided under applicable law or Platform Policies.

31. One Active Subscription per Account

Unless expressly authorised by ConsulTOpen, only one active paid Subscription may be associated with a single User Account at any given time.

Users shall not purchase, activate or maintain multiple overlapping paid Subscriptions for the same User Account unless expressly permitted by the Platform.

Where multiple Subscriptions are purchased due to technical errors, duplicate payments or other exceptional circumstances, ConsulTOpen may:

  • merge the Subscriptions;
  • cancel duplicate Subscriptions;
  • adjust billing records;
  • issue appropriate credits where considered appropriate; or
  • take any other commercially reasonable corrective action.

32. Grandfathering of Subscription Plans

Where ConsulTOpen discontinues, replaces or restructures any Subscription Plan, existing Subscribers may, at the sole discretion of ConsulTOpen, continue using their current Subscription until the expiry of the applicable billing period.

Upon renewal, such Users may be migrated to a revised Subscription Plan, pricing structure or membership programme.

Nothing contained herein obligates ConsulTOpen to continue offering discontinued Subscription Plans indefinitely.

Where immediate discontinuation becomes necessary due to legal requirements, security concerns, fraud prevention, operational necessity or circumstances beyond the reasonable control of ConsulTOpen, ConsulTOpen reserves the right to discontinue the affected Subscription Plan without waiting for the expiry of the current billing period, subject to applicable law.

33. Subscription Transfer & Assignment

Every Subscription purchased through the ConsulTOpen Platform is personal to the User Account with which it is associated.

Unless expressly authorised in writing by ConsulTOpen, Subscription Plans shall not be:

  • transferred to another User;
  • assigned to another individual or organisation;
  • shared between multiple Users;
  • resold;
  • sublicensed;
  • gifted;
  • exchanged for cash or other consideration; or
  • otherwise commercially exploited.

Users shall not attempt to circumvent these restrictions through:

  • creation of multiple User Accounts;
  • account sharing;
  • credential sharing;
  • unauthorised access;
  • automated methods;
  • fraudulent activity; or
  • any other means intended to permit multiple individuals to use a single

Subscription.

Where ConsulTOpen reasonably believes that a Subscription has been transferred, shared, assigned or otherwise used in violation of this Policy, ConsulTOpen may, without limitation:

  • suspend the Subscription;
  • terminate the Subscription;
  • revoke Subscription Benefits;
  • require additional identity verification;
  • restrict access to premium features;
  • recover any promotional benefits obtained through such misuse;
  • refuse future Subscription purchases; or
  • take any other action reasonably necessary to protect the integrity of the Platform.

Nothing contained in this Section shall prevent ConsulTOpen from introducing transferable memberships, family plans, institutional subscriptions or any other alternative membership model in the future under separate terms and conditions.
