Visit www.bigtv .com/termsofuse to identify Pravasa Media that provides the bigtv News service to you and other applicable terms. Please read these terms, along with the Privacy Notice, Conditions of Use, and bigtv News Usage Rules applicable to you, and all other rules and policies related to the bigtv News service (collectively, this “Agreement”). The Privacy Notice, the Cookies Notice and the Interest-Based Ads Notice are not part of your Agreement. The versions of these policies and notices applicable to you are available for your review to understand how we handle your personal information. Each time you visit, browse or use the bigtv News service, you accept this Agreement on behalf of yourself and all members of your household and others who use the Service under your account.

1. THE SERVICE

Bigtv News (the “Service”) is a personalized service that offers, recommends and helps you discover news, digital shows and other video content (collectively, “Digital Content”) and other services as provided in this Agreement. It’s only through subscription that you can access the Service and Digital Content governed by terms made available in the apps, websites or devices you use to access the service. If you are under 18 years of age, you may use the Service only with involvement of a parent or guardian. We personalize content and features as part of the Services, including showing you recommendations on Digital Content, features and services that might be of interest to you. We also endeavor to continuously improve the devices and services and your experience with them.

2. COMPATIBLE DEVICES

In order to stream or download Digital Content, you will need to use a personal computer, portable media player, or other device that meets the system and compatibility requirements that we establish from time to time (a “Compatible Device”). Some Compatible Devices may be used only to stream Digital Content, some may be used only to download Digital Content, and some may be used to stream and download Digital Content. We may change the requirements for Compatible Devices from time to time and, in some cases, whether a device is (or remains) a Compatible Device may depend on software or systems provided or maintained by the device manufacturer or other third parties. Accordingly, devices that are Compatible Devices at one time may cease to be Compatible Devices in the future.

3. GEOGRAPHIC VARIABILITY

Due to technical and other restrictions imposed by content providers, the Service is available only in certain locations. The Digital Content (including subtitled and dubbed audio versions of Digital Content) and how we offer Digital Content to you will vary over time and by location. Bigtv will use technologies to verify your geographic location. You may not use any technology or technique to obscure or disguise your location.

4. DIGITAL CONTENT
5. General. The Service may allow you to: (i) access Digital Content on a subscription basis for viewing during a limited period of time during a subscription period (“Subscription Digital Content”), (ii) rent Digital Content for on-demand viewing over a limited period of time (“Rental Digital Content”), (iii) purchase Digital Content for on-demand viewing over an indefinite period of time (“Purchased Digital Content”), (iv) purchase Digital Content for pay-per-view viewing over a limited period of time (“PPV Digital Content”), and/or (v) access Digital Content on a free, ad-supported or promotional basis for viewing over a limited period of time (“Free Digital Content”). Digital Content may be available as Subscription Digital Content, Rental Digital Content, Purchased Digital Content, PPV Digital Content, Free Digital Content, or any combination of those, and in each case is subject to the limited license grant below.
6. Usage Rules. Your use of Digital Content is subject to the bigtv News Usage Rules (the “Usage Rules”). The Usage Rules provide important information, including the time period during which you are authorized to view different types of Digital Content (the “Viewing Period”) and limitations on the number and type of Compatible Devices on which each type of Digital Content may be downloaded, streamed, and viewed.

Offers and pricing for subscriptions (also referred to at times as memberships), the subscription services, the extent of available Subscription Digital Content, and the specific titles available through subscription services, may change over time and by location without notice (except as may be required by applicable law). Unless otherwise indicated, any price changes are effective as of the beginning of the next subscription period. If you do not agree to a subscription change, you may cancel your subscription per Section 4(d) below. The pricing for subscriptions or memberships may include VAT, GST and/or other taxes. Where applicable, such taxes will be collected by the party with whom you transact for the service, which may be bigtv or a third party. We make no guarantee as to the availability of specific Subscription Digital Content or the minimum amount of Subscription Digital Content available in any subscription. Additional terms applicable to a subscription (such as the applicable cancellation and refund policy) will be indicated on the informational pages for that subscription on the primary Service website for your location.

Some of the subscription services that we offer are from third parties. Third parties that provide subscription services may change or discontinue the features of their services or the content in their services. Bigtv is not responsible for the content contained in any third-party subscription service or the features of these services.

1. Cancellation of Subscriptions/Memberships. If you signed-up for your video subscription or membership directly through us, you may cancel any time by visiting Your Account and adjusting your membership settings, by contacting bigtv customer service, or by using any cancellation form that we make available to you or, if you transact for the applicable bigtv subscription or membership service through a third party, through your account with such third party. If you cancel within 3 business days of signing up for, or converting from a free trial to, a paid membership, we will refund your full membership fee; except that we may charge you the value of the Service used through your account during such period. You also expressly accept that the Service will start within your cancellation period.

You can use “Your Account” settings to update your designated payment method(s).

If you signed up for your subscription or membership through a third party and are not billed directly by us, then the billing terms provided by the third party will apply to your subscription or membership.
