Visitor Agreement

Last Changes to Visitor Agreement: 7 septembre 2021

Welcome to discovery+, one of the family of informational, educational and entertainment-oriented applications and websites brought to you by Discovery Digital Ventures, LLC, an affiliate of Discovery Communications, LLC and its subsidiaries and affiliates (“Discovery”). Please read this Visitor Agreement; by using this website, you accept its terms.

This is a legal agreement between you (“you” or “user”) and Discovery that states the material terms and conditions that govern your use of discovery+. This agreement, together with all updates, supplements, additional terms, and all of Discovery’s rules and policies collectively constitute this “Agreement” between you and Discovery. BY ACCESSING DISCOVERY+, YOU AGREE TO BE LEGALLY BOUND BY THIS AGREEMENT. IF YOU DO NOT AGREE TO THE VISITOR AGREEMENT AS STATED HEREIN, PLEASE DO NOT USE DISCOVERY+ AND DELETE ANY ASSOCIATED APPLICATIONS FROM YOUR DEVICE.

This Visitor Agreement applies to all of the websites and applications associated with discovery+ offerings as well as all discovery+ e-mail newsletters published or distributed by or on behalf of Discovery and any other interactive features, video or platforms associated with the discovery+ offerings, to the extent each of the foregoing is offered in Canada. Those outlets are referred to collectively in this Visitor Agreement as “discovery+.” Please note that this Visitor Agreement does not, however, apply to “discovery+”-branded offerings available outside Canada or to Discovery TV Everywhere services, which may be distributed via cable networks, through “over the top” devices, or on or through the Internet. In the event those offerings link to different terms and conditions, those terms and conditions will apply. As described below, you may be able to access and view some materials for free and without registering for an account, but certain features may only be available if you (a) register for an account and sign in to the associated service; or (b) if you subscribe to the service and pay the associated subscription fee. Additional terms and conditions may apply to some services offered on discovery+. Such terms and conditions may be found at the place where the relevant service is offered. Some features may not be available on all devices. Please visit the discovery+ Help Center to see the full list of supported devices and operating system requirements and any other device restrictions that may apply. You are responsible for all internet access, mobile data or other charges incurred when using discovery+. Remember that streaming and downloading audio-visual content such as videos and games can use up a lot of data.

Please read this Visitor Agreement carefully. It contains important information regarding your legal rights including mandatory arbitration, no class relief, and waiver of your right to a jury trial (where permitted by applicable law).  Please take a few minutes to review the section Dispute Resolution

We may change the terms of this Visitor Agreement to accommodate changes in the marketplace with at least 30 days notice. By continuing to use any of the discovery+ offerings on discovery+ after the effective date of the posting of the amended Visitor Agreement, you accept the updated Visitor Agreement, as modified. We may change, restrict access to, suspend or discontinue discovery+, or any portion of discovery+, at any time. YOUR CONTINUED USE OF DISCOVERY+ FOLLOWING THE EFFECTIVE DATE OF THE AMENDED VISITOR AGREEMENT WILL MEAN YOU ACCEPT THOSE CHANGES. UNLESS WE PROVIDE YOU WITH SPECIFIC NOTICE, NO CHANGES TO OUR VISITOR AGREEMENT WILL APPLY RETROACTIVELY.  If you are a resident of Quebec, we will notify you by email at least 30 days before the changes become effective, and you may choose to either terminate your Visitor Agreement without penalty by letting us know no later than 30 days after the changes take effect, or continue under the new Visitor Agreement.

ACCESS TO THE SERVICE
By accessing, using or installing discovery+, you will be able to access and view content, which may include videos, music, games, graphics, text, images and photographs (“discovery+ Content”), on the terms and conditions set out in this Visitor Agreement.
You may be able to access and view some discovery+ Content for free, but most discovery+ Content may only be available to you if you: (a) register a discovery+ account (“discovery+ Account”); and (b) purchase a discovery+ subscription (“discovery+ Subscription”).
Further details of the current discovery+ Subscriptions on offer can be found within discovery+. If you purchase a discovery+ Subscription from us, you can view details about your discovery+ Subscription, including the price, by accessing your account section in discovery+. If your discovery+ Subscription auto-renews, this information will include the recurring subscription fee, billing renewal date and how to stop your discovery+ Subscription from auto-renewing.
You may personalize your use of discovery+ by creating one or more profiles under your discovery+ Account. Only the account holder and those with permission from the account holder may create a profile. The account holder may access profile details and delete or modify profiles associated with the account.
When you sign up for a discovery+ Account or purchase a discovery+ Subscription you are responsible for all access to and use of discovery+ through your account. You are also responsible for your discovery+ Account username and password, for keeping them confidential, and for all activities that are carried out under them. We recommend that you do not reveal your payment details, username and password to any other person. You agree to notify us immediately if you become aware of or suspect any unauthorized use of your password or username.
FREE PERIOD OF ACCESS
Your discovery+ Subscription may start with a free period of access. Free periods of access are available to new subscribers only (one per subscriber) unless we tell you otherwise and are subject to availability. The specific duration of the free period of access will be specified at the point of sign-up. You will be required to confirm your consent to being charged at the end of your free period of access unless you cancel your discovery+ Subscription before the expiry of the free period of access. Please note that you may not be notified that your free period of access is ending or has ended and that your paid subscription has started.
PROMOTIONAL OFFERS
Discovery and its affiliates or business partners may make available codes or other promotional offers which: (a) grant access to discovery+ Content normally only available via a discovery+ Subscription without requiring you to pay for such access; or (b) give a discount on a discovery+ Subscription or other paid offerings in discovery+ (“Promotional Offers”).
Promotional Offers may take a variety of forms and may be made available on a standalone basis or provided as part of a bundle with other products or services sold by Discovery, its affiliates or one of our business partners. You may only use and redeem Promotional Offers in accordance with the specific terms and conditions which apply to them. Please check the relevant terms and conditions of the Promotional Offer for full details. Unless stated otherwise, Promotional Offers are only available to new subscribers (one per subscriber) and are subject to availability. Where a Promotional Offer is combined with a free period of access, restrictions may apply. Where a Promotional Offer is provided by a business partner, that other party may also have additional terms and conditions which apply. Discovery is not responsible for the products and services provided by such third parties. Eligibility for Promotional Offers is determined by Discovery and we reserve the right to limit availability of and/or revoke any Promotional Offer and put your account on hold in the event that you are not eligible.
BILLING
If a charge applies to your discovery+ Subscription, you will be charged for it using the payment method you designate (the “Primary Payment Method”). In addition, you may have the option to provide multiple payment methods to be associated with your Account. In the event you submit multiple payment methods, you hereby authorize Discovery to charge such backup payment method in the event the Primary Payment Method cannot be charged. If your discovery+ Subscription automatically renews, subscription payments will be taken automatically on the first day of each new subscription period for your discovery+ Subscription at the same price (unless we have notified you of a price change as described below). Usually the first payment will be taken on the day you subscribe or, if you have a free period of access, the day after your free period of access ends (where permitted by applicable law). If you are eligible for a Promotional Offer involving a discount, your bill and payments will be reduced accordingly for the promotion period.
To view your billing information or to change your payment method, go to your account section in discovery+ (unless you’re paying via a third party or through another service, for example via one of our partners, in which case see “Third Party Platforms and Services” below).
EXCEPT WHERE PROHIBITED BY APPLICABLE LAW, if a payment is not successfully settled, because your payment method has expired and there is no viable backup payment method associated with your account, you have insufficient funds, or otherwise, and you do not change your payment method or cancel your discovery+ Subscription, we may suspend your access to your discovery+ Subscription and/or your discovery+ Account until we (or the relevant third party) have obtained a valid payment method. When you update your payment method in your account, you authorize us to charge the updated payment method for your discovery+ Subscription and you remain responsible for any uncollected amounts. This may result in a change to your payment dates or subscription period.
We reserve the right to change the date we charge you if your payment method has not been successfully authorized or if your subscription renewal date does not occur in a given month, for example, if you are usually charged on the 30th of each month, in February you will be charged on the 28th.
We use other companies (including other companies in the same group as Discovery), agents or contractors to process credit card transactions or other payment methods. For some payment methods, the relevant issuer may charge you certain fees, such as a foreign transaction fee or other fees relating to the processing of your payment method. Local taxes and charges may vary depending on the payment method used. You will be solely responsible for any such taxes and charges which may apply. Check with your payment provider for details.
If you subscribe to a discovery+ Subscription which starts with a free period of access, or if you use a Promotional Offer which requires you to provide your payment details, a payment may be authorized by your bank when your free period of access or Promotional Offer begins but no payment will be taken by us for this free period of access or for this Promotional Offer period. You should be aware however that this may affect your available balance or credit limit.
AUTOMATIC RENEWAL
EXCEPT WHERE PROHIBITED BY APPLICABLE LAW (WHICH MAY INCLUDE THE PROVINCE OF QUEBEC), certain types of discovery+ Subscriptions automatically renew unless you cancel your subscription before your next renewal date. If you purchase a discovery+ Subscription through us, we will let you know, at the point of sign-up, if your type of discovery+ Subscription will automatically renew. If you have a discovery+ Subscription which automatically renews, and you do not cancel your subscription before the end of the current subscription period (or free period of access), your discovery+ Subscription will automatically renew. If your discovery+ Subscription automatically renews, you will be charged the total subscription fee at the same price (unless we have notified you of a price change, in accordance with “Price Changes” below) due for the next subscription period.
PRICE CHANGES
We may change the price of your discovery+ Subscription from time to time. Any price changes will apply to you no earlier than 30 days following notice to you. We will let you know the date on which any price change is due to come into effect. If you have purchased a discovery+ Subscription through one of our third party partners, price changes will be subject to that third party’s terms and conditions.
If we notify you of a price change and you do not want to continue your discovery+ Subscription at the new subscription price, you can cancel your discovery+ Subscription either: (i) before the start of the next subscription period by following the steps in “Cancellation” below; or (ii) at any time before the price change becomes effective by providing us with notice at cancel@discoveryplus.com/ca. If you reside in the Province of Québec, you may cancel your discovery+ Subscription without cost, penalty or indemnity by providing us with such notice within 30 days after the price change becomes effective.
We will always try to make sure the price of your discovery+ Subscription will not change until the start of your next subscription period. If a price change is going to come into effect during your current subscription period, you can cancel your discovery+ Subscription before the price change comes into effect (or, if you reside in the Province of Québec, within 30 days after the price change comes into effect) and we will provide you with a refund for amounts you have paid for but not yet received (including, if you reside in the Province of Québec, any price change that you have in fact paid prior to cancelling your discovery+ Subscription).
CANCELLATION
You may cancel your discovery+ Subscription at any time, with immediate effect or you can choose to make cancellation effective at the end of the current subscription period (or free period of access). If you choose to cancel your discovery+ Subscription immediately, you will not be able to continue to use your discovery+ Subscription. If you do not choose to cancel your discovery+ Subscription immediately, you will be able to continue to use your it until the end of the current subscription period (or free period of access), unless we tell you otherwise.
To manage your discovery+ Subscription, click on the account area in discovery+. If you signed up for a discovery+ Subscription through a third party (for example via one of our partners) and wish to cancel your subscription, you will need to do so through that third party. For example, you may need to visit your account with a third party and turn off auto-renew for discovery+.
REFUNDS AND CREDITS
If you cancel your discovery+ Subscription, we will refund you a pro-rated amount of any remaining portion of your pre-paid discovery+ Subscription fees, effective from the date of cancellation, using the method of payment with which you previously paid.
At any time, and for any reason, we may provide a refund, discount, or other consideration to some or all of our subscribers. If we do this for any reason this does not mean we are obligated to do so again, even in the same circumstances.
If you signed up for a discovery+ Subscription through a third party (for example, an app-store or via one of our partners) and encounter any problems with billing or payments, please contact that third party in respect of any refunds or credits relating to your discovery+ Subscription in accordance with that third party’s terms. For any other issues relating to your discovery+ Subscription, you can contact us at help@discoveryplus.com/ca.
THIRD PARTY PLATFORMS AND SERVICES
If you access discovery+ or purchase a discovery+ Subscription through a third party (for example, via a bundle of services provided by one of our third party partners) or another product or service sold by that third party, your payment will be to that third party or to that other product or service and you will be subject to that third party’s terms or to that other product or services’ terms (including any applicable usage rules). Important information on the applicable terms of sale, charges, taxes, payment methods, your right to cancel a transaction and when you can exercise such right (where applicable), and the technical steps to conclude a transaction, will be detailed in the third party’s terms and conditions or in the terms and conditions of the other product or service. You must comply with those terms and conditions and also with this Visitor Agreement. In the event of any inconsistency between this Visitor Agreement and those terms and conditions, the third party terms and conditions shall take precedence over this Visitor Agreement. If you are paying for a discovery+ Subscription via a third party or via another product or service sold by that third party and you wish to change your payment method, you will need to do so through that third party or the other product or service.

DISPUTE RESOLUTION

PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY. IT AFFECTS YOUR RIGHTS AND HOW CLAIMS THAT YOU AND DISCOVERY HAVE AGAINST EACH OTHER ARE RESOLVED.

We believe that arbitration is a faster, more convenient and less expensive way to resolve any disputes or disagreements that you may have with us. Therefore, pursuant to this Visitor Agreement, if you have any dispute or disagreement with us regarding (i) your use of or interaction with discovery+, (ii) any purchases or other transactions or relationships with Discovery, or (iii) any data or information you may provide to Discovery or that Discovery may gather in connection with such use, interaction or transaction (collectively, “Discovery Transactions or Relationships”), you will not have the right to pursue a claim in court, or have a jury decide the claim and you will not have the right to bring or participate in any class action or similar proceeding in court or in arbitration. By using or interacting with discovery+, or engaging in any other Discovery Transactions or Relationships with us, you agree to binding arbitration as provided below.

EXCEPT WHERE PROHIBITED BY APPLICABLE LAW (WHICH MAY INCLUDE THE PROVINCE OF QUEBEC), any controversy, claim or dispute arising out of, relating to, or in respect of this Visitor Agreement, including their negotiation, validity, existence, breach, termination, construction or application, or the rights, duties or obligations of any party, or the rights, duties or obligations of any party derived from or associated with this Visitor Agreement (a “Dispute”), shall be referred to and determined by a single arbitrator in a final and binding arbitration administered under the rules of ADR Institute of Canada, Inc.’s Arbitration Rules. If the parties have not agreed upon an arbitrator within 14 days, unless otherwise agreed by the parties in writing, the parties shall ask the ADR Institute of Canada, Inc. to appoint a single arbitrator.

The seat of the arbitration shall be the same as the provincial or territorial law governing this Visitor Agreement. The arbitration shall be heard in the capital of the seat unless the parties agree otherwise. The costs and expenses of the arbitrator shall be shared equally between the parties. A party to the arbitration has no right of appeal from any award of the Arbitrator, whether characterized as final, interim, interlocutory or partial.

All Disputes referred to arbitration (including the scope of the agreement to arbitrate, the law relating to the enforcement of the agreement to arbitrate, any relevant limitation periods, the law governing the procedure of the arbitration, the law relating to available remedies, set-off claims and conflict of laws rules) shall be governed by the law of the seat. Each party hereby irrevocably consents to venue in the capital of the seat, and to the jurisdiction of competent courts in the capital of the seat for all litigation that may be brought, however it is agreed and acknowledged that the intention of the parties is to arbitrate the Dispute without recourse to the courts.

A party to this Visitor Agreement may take such steps as are permitted or required to enforce an award made by an Arbitrator. Except as required by law, and only to the extent that such disclosure is reasonably necessary, or for the purposes of obtaining professional advice, the existence of the arbitration and any element of the arbitration, including any award, shall be confidential and shall not be disclosed to any non-party to the arbitration. No document or other evidence or information prepared for or produced by or on behalf of any party to the arbitration shall be disclosed to any non-party to the arbitration.

CHOICE OF LAW

The validity, interpretation, construction, and performance of this Visitor Agreement shall be governed by the laws in effect in the province or territory in which you reside.

CHOICE OF FORUM

By using discovery+, you agree that the exclusive jurisdiction for any dispute not subject to the arbitration provision discussed above shall be the courts of the province or territory in which you reside.

INDEMNITY

You agree to indemnify, defend and hold harmless Discovery, its affiliates, and their officers, directors, employees, agents, representatives, licensors and suppliers, from and against any and all losses, expenses, damages and costs (including reasonable legal fees) resulting from any violation of this Visitor Agreement or any activity related to your account (including negligent or wrongful conduct) by you or any other person accessing any Discovery Site using your account.

RELEASE

EXCEPT WHERE PROHIBITED BY APPLICABLE LAW (WHICH MAY INCLUDE THE PROVINCE OF QUEBEC), in the event that you have a dispute with one or more other users of discovery+, you release Discovery (and our officers, directors, agents, representatives, subsidiaries, joint ventures and employees) from claims, demands and damages (actual and consequential) of every kind and nature, known and unknown, suspected and unsuspected, disclosed and undisclosed, arising out of or in any way connected with such disputes.

SEVERABILITY

In the event that any portion of this Visitor Agreement is found to be invalid or unenforceable for any reason, such invalidity or unenforceability shall not affect the enforceability or validity of any other portion of this Visitor Agreement, which shall remain in full force and effect and be construed as if the invalid or unenforceable portion were not part of the Visitor Agreement.

LANGUAGE

It is the express wish of the parties that this Visitor Agreement and all related documents be drawn up in English. C’est la volonté expresse des parties que la présente convention ainsi que les documents qui s’y rattachent soient rédigé en anglais.
