Got this email from Paramount+ (who’m I won’t be renewing), the most important part is the 4th bullet point:
Hello,
We are sending you this email to let you know that we are updating our terms.
You can find important information on these changes in this email.
You should carefully read our updated terms in full. You can find a copy of these updated Terms of Use ####.
You can also find a copy of our current Subscription Terms #### and our current Terms of Use ####.
Here is a summary of what has changed:
- We have combined our previous Subscription Terms and Terms of Use into one new document titled Terms of Use, so that you can find all the important information about your account and your subscription in one place.
- We have clarified which Paramount entity is responsible for your contractual relationship with us under these Terms of Use.
- We have updated the language to reflect all the various ways to sign up for a subscription and the different types of subscriptions on offer, as well as providing the possibility to switch to a different subscription plan where permitted.
- We have added wording which makes clear that any content and subscriptions to Paramount+ may include trailers shown before/after content, sponsorship and/or product placement (or similar). We have also clarified that live content in any subscription may contain ads and that you must not use ad-blocker technology to try and prevent the display of ads anywhere on our service.
- We have clarified how you can cancel your subscription if you sign up directly with Paramount, but also if you sign up in a different way e.g. via an app store.
- We have provided information on how add-ons and bundles might work.
- We have also clarified how and when we might change our prices, Terms of Use and service in the future, and how we will let you know about these changes and your options as a result.
- We have added some clarificatory language around the quality of the service and how it may be affected depending on your location and the speed and bandwidth of your internet connection, amongst other factors.
- We have confirmed when and how we may transfer your agreement so we can maintain your access to the service if our business structure were to change.
- We have improved the language and structure of our Terms of Use to ensure they continue to be transparent, clear and easy to navigate, including removing some repeated sections.
When will the changes take effect?
The Terms of Use will take effect 30 days after the date of this notice. If you have an active subscription and do not agree to the updated Terms of Use, you can cancel your subscription before the changes take effect (or if you reside in the Province of Quebec within 30 days from the date the changes come into effect without cost, penalty or cancellation indemnity) and, if you do so, our current Subscription Terms and our current Terms of Use will continue to apply to you until the end of your billing period. If you do not cancel your subscription before the changes take effect (or if you reside in the Province of Quebec within 30 days from the date the changes come into effect without cost, penalty or cancellation indemnity), you are agreeing to the updated Terms of Use and your subscription will continue in accordance with the updated Terms of Use.
