After the service termination date, account information and hologram suit data will no longer be accessible or usable.

You can continue to view and use your data within the app until the service ends.

Q. Can I transfer my data to other services?

A. As this service uses proprietary data, we do not support migration or transfer to external services.

We kindly ask for your understanding.

Q. Should I delete the app?

A. After service termination, you may need to confirm your user ID and other information via the app when checking your paid coin balance or applying for a refund.

If you delete the app, you will no longer be able to confirm your data or re-download the app, which may hinder a smooth refund process.

If you plan to apply for a refund, we kindly request that you keep the app installed until the procedure is complete.
