Bustos Media, LLC may offer a free or reduced price trial subscription of the Plus Service or the All Access Service for a specified trial period either without payment or with payment of a reduced fee (a “Trial”). To initiate the Promotional Trial, you will be required to provide your credit card information. By initiating the Promotional Trial, you affirmatively consent to have your credit card charged automatically on a periodically recurring basis if you do not cancel your subscription before the end of the Promotional Trial.
Unless otherwise specified, Trials are limited to a single Paid Subscription Service; you may not obtain more than a single Trial using the same account or credit card and if you have previously used the same account or credit card to obtain a Trial or Paid Subscription Service, then that card will immediately be charged applicable fee upon registration. Bustos Media, LLC may, at its sole discretion and to the fullest extent permitted by law, revoke or alter a Promotional Trial without notice to you and at any time. Your Promotional Trial will end as soon as you purchase a Paid Subscription Service.
BY INITIATING A PROMOTIONAL TRIAL, YOU AFFIRMATIVELY CONSENT TO BE AUTOMATICALLY ENROLLED IN THE PAID SUBSCRIPTION SERVICE YOU SELECTED DURING REGISTRATION, AND TO HAVE YOUR CREDIT CARD AUTOMATICALLY CHARGED THE APPLICABLE FEES (INCLUDING APPLICABLE FEDERAL, STATE, OR LOCAL TAXES) ON A RECURRING PERIODIC BASIS (E.G., MONTHLY, QUARTERLY, OR ANNUALLY), UNLESS YOU CANCEL THE PAID SUBSCRIPTION SERVICE PRIOR TO EXPIRATION OF THE PROMOTIONAL TRIAL. You may cancel online by following the instructions below (“Paid Subscription Service – Cancellation”).
Paid Subscription Service—Automatic Renewal
By registering for a Paid Subscription Service, you affirmatively consent to have your Paid Subscription Service automatically renewed, and to have your credit card charged on a periodically recurring basis (e.g., monthly, quarterly, or annually), unless you cancel your subscription before the end of your current subscription term. You may cancel online by following the instructions below (“Paid Subscription Service – Cancellation”). Cancellation will be effective the day after the end of your current subscription term. Your failure to cancel your subscription during the current term will result in the automatic renewal of your subscription at the then-current subscription rate and for the same term as your current subscription (e.g., monthly, quarterly, yearly). As described below, if Bustos Media, LLC plans to change the subscription rate, we will provide you with advance notice of the new rate. The cancellation of a Paid Subscription Service will result in a downgrade of your subscription service to the Free-of-Charge Service as of the end of your current subscription term.
Paid Subscription Service—Subscription Rate Changes
We may change the subscription rate from time to time. If we do, we will provide you advance notice of any change in the subscription rate. If you do not agree with the new subscription rate, you may cancel your subscription prior to the new subscription rate taking effect. You may cancel online by following the instructions below (“Paid Subscription Service – Cancellation”). If you continue to use the Paid Subscription Service after the subscription rate has gone into effect, you will be charged the new rate until you cancel or the rate changes.
Paid Subscription Service—Data
As part of your purchase of a Paid Subscription Service, data collected through the registration and payment process may be shared with our applicable payment service provider. If you purchase the Paid Subscription Service online, such information will be shared with Processor. If you make an in-app purchase of the Paid Subscription Service, such information will be shared with the applicable app store provider (e.g., Apple App Store, Google Play, etc.). Your data will be handled in accordance with our Privacy Policy.
