3. Goods and Services

3.1 Auto-Renewing Subscriptions & In-App Purchases

You may purchase an auto-renewing subscription to access additional features and resources on the Platforms.  There may also be also features and extra content available for purchase within a Platform (In-App Purchases).

Subscriptions can be purchased for a period of either one month or one year for the price displayed on the Platform at the time of purchase. Upon expiry of the relevant period the subscription automatically renews for the same period and for the currently displayed price (which may be more than your original subscription fee) unless the subscription is cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Subscriptions can be managed and automatic renewal turned off from within your iTunes or Google Play Store account settings. If your subscription is cancelled you will continue to receive the benefits of a subscription until expiry of your subscription period.

When purchasing some In-App Purchases that can be redeemed or used across multiple apps or if you purchase your subscription on ghosttube.com, you will be required to create a user name and password or link your purchase to an existing account. We encourage you to use a strong and unique password. You are responsible for keeping this user name and password secure and are responsible for all use and activity carried out under this user name. User names and passwords are not to be shared and you must not allow others to use them to log in to a Platform. You may use your subscription or account on up to 3 devices at a time only.

3.2 Free Trials

From time to time we may offer a free trial period for auto-renewing subscriptions. The length of the free trial will be provided to the user prior to commencing the trial, though generally it will be for 7 days. Free trials may not necessarily be available to users in all countries and regions at the same time. In addition, free trials are only available to new subscribers – existing subscribers, or users who have been previously subscribed, are not eligible.

At the end of the free trial period, the subscription automatically renews at the full price unless the subscription is cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Subscriptions can be managed and automatic renewal turned off from within your iTunes or Google Play Store account settings. If your subscription is cancelled before the free trial ends, you will still continue to receive the benefits of a subscription until the end of the free trial.
