Auto-renewal can prevent EdgeSec resources from being automatically deleted if you forget to manually renew them. The auto-renewal rules are as follows:

The first auto-renewal date is based on when EdgeSec expires and the billing cycle.
The EdgeSec auto-renewal duration is of your choice For example, if you set the subscription duration to three months, EdgeSec will be automatically renewed for another three months before expiration.
You can enable auto-renewal anytime before EdgeSec expires. By default, the system will make the first attempt to charge your account for the renewal at 03:00 seven days before the expiry date. If this attempt fails, it will make another attempt at 03:00 every day until the subscription is renewed or expired.
You can still perform a manual renewal even when auto-renewal is enabled. After a manual renewal is complete, auto-renew is still in effect, and auto-renewal will be done 7 days before the new subscription expires.
By default, the system automatically deducts fees from your account 7 days before your instance expires. You can change the renewal payment date if needed, for example, 6 days or 5 days before the instance expires.
