3. Connection services and resource limits
A one-time app purchase does not include a service plan. This website does not provide, sell, or recommend proxy nodes or subscription services. To use the connection features, you must already have your own subscription or server details. You are responsible for resolving questions about service duration, access, bandwidth, and outages with your service provider under your agreement with them.
Examples in the manual explain configuration methods; they are not usable connection resources and do not guarantee results on any particular network. System interfaces, permission prompts, and configuration behavior may vary by environment; follow the prompts in the app. Back up your rules or configuration before making changes, and avoid overwriting content you still need.
