Premium subscription.

Some of our subscriptions include a trial period, where you can experience the application for a specified period at no cost or at a reduced price (“Trial”). Subscription with the Trial period will automatically renew to a paid subscription once your Trial expires. If you purchase access to the Premium content or services through a third party, separate terms and conditions with a such third party may apply in addition to these terms.
