1. INTRODUCTION

Thank you for choosing God Music (“GOD MUSIC”, “we”, “us”, “our”). God Music provides personalized services with social and interactive features for streaming Christian Music and other content, as well as other products and services that may be developed from time to time. By signing up or otherwise, to any of God Music’s services, including all associated features, functionalities, websites and user interfaces, content and software applications associated with those services (collectively, the “God Music Service” or “ Service”), you are entering into a binding contract with God Music.

Your agreement with us includes these Terms and any additional terms that you agree to, as discussed in the Entire Agreement section below, other than terms with any third parties (collectively, the “Agreements”). The Agreements include terms regarding future changes to the Agreements, export controls, automatic renewals, limitations of liability, privacy, waiver of class actions and resolution of disputes by arbitration instead of in court. If you wish to review the terms of Agreements, the current effective version of the Agreements can be found on God Music’s website. You acknowledge that you have read and understood the Agreements, accept these Agreements, and agree to be bound by them. If you don’t agree with (or cannot comply with) the Agreements, then you may not access the God Music Service.

In order to access God Music’s Service, you must (1) accept our usage Terms & Conditions and (2) reside in a country where our Service is available. You also promise that any registration information that you submit to God Music is true, accurate, and complete, and you agree to keep it that way at all times.

2. CHANGES TO THE AGREEMENTS

God Music reserves the rights to make periodic changes to the Agreements for valid reasons, such as improving the existing functions or features or adding new functions or features to the Service, implementing advancements in science and technology, and reasonable technical adjustments to the Service, ensuring the operability or the security of the Service, and for legal or regulatory reasons. In case changes are made to the Agreements, users will be informed of the change by means of notification within the app or via email communication. In some cases, users will be notified in advance, and their continued accessing of the Service, thereafter would constitute their acceptance of the changes. Users are therefore urged to read these notifications carefully. If a user does not wish to continue using the Service under the new version of the Agreements, the subscription can be cancelled through the third-party service through which the subscription was made.

3. ENJOYING GOD MUSIC

Here’s some information about all the ways users can enjoy God Music

3.1 Service Options

Users can find a description of God Music’s services on the God Music website. The details of the services available to users will be detailed while a user account is being created within the app. We may also offer special promotional plans, memberships or services, that include offers for third-party products and services in conjunction with or through the God Music Service. We are not responsible for the products and services provided by such third parties. We reserve the right to modify, terminate or otherwise amend our subscription plans and promotional offerings at any time in accordance with these Terms.

If users have purchased or received a promotional code, gift card, pre-paid offer or other offers provided or sold by, or on behalf of God Music for access to a Paid Subscription (“Code”), separate terms and conditions will be presented to them along with the Code. The user agrees to comply with any such terms and conditions. Users may also purchase access to a Paid Subscription through a third party. In such cases, separate terms and conditions with such third party in addition to the Agreements may apply to their access to the Service.

3.2 Trials

In case of some Trials, users might be required to provide payment details to start the Trial. By providing these details, users agree that we may automatically begin charging them for the Paid Subscription on the first day following the end of the Trial on a recurring monthly basis or another interval that we disclose in advance. If a user does not wish to be charged, they must cancel the Paid Subscription before the end of the Trial. If they have signed up for the Trial through God Music, or if they have received their Trial through a third party, users are required to cancel the applicable Paid Subscription through the third-party service through which the subscription was made.

From time to time, God Music or others on our behalf may offer Trials of Paid Subscriptions for a specified period without payment or at a reduced rate (a “Trial”). God Music will determine users’ eligibility for a Trial, and withdraw or modify a Trial at any time without prior notice and with no liability, to the extent permitted under applicable law.

4. PAYMENTS AND CANCELLATIONS

4.1 BILLING

When a Paid Subscription is purchased directly from God Music or through a third party either by (1) paying a subscription fee in advance on a monthly basis or some other recurring interval disclosed prior to purchase; or (2) pre-payment giving users access to the God Music Service for a specific time period (“Pre-Paid Period”).

God Music may change the price for the Paid Subscriptions, including recurring subscription fees, the Pre-Paid Period (for periods not yet paid), or Codes, from time to time and will communicate any price changes to users in advance and, if applicable, how to accept those changes. Price changes will take effect at the start of the next subscription period following the date of the price change. Subject to applicable law, users accept the new price by continuing to access the God Music Service after the price change takes effect. If users do not agree to a price change, they can unsubscribe from the Paid Subscription prior to the price change taking effect.

  • aggregate liability for all claims relating to the God Music Service, third party applications, or third party application content more than the amounts paid by users to God Music during the prior twelve months in question; or
  • non-performance or inadequate performance or delay to the obligations deriving from the agreements caused by force majeure or any cause which is not reasonably foreseeable or beyond God Music’s reasonable control.
