Article 4. Transactions

4.1.          Every OUTtv offer, including but not limited to the offer to purchase a Subscription or the provision of Content through the Service, on the Website or otherwise, is not binding.

4.2.          A Transaction between the User and OUTtv enters into effect after the User takes a Subscription and/or rents certain individual pieces of Content.

A Subscription enters into effect on the day OUTtv confirms the User registration, after the associated Transaction is completed.

4.3.          Each Subscription has a minimum duration, which is indicated by OUTtv in the Subscription process. Therefore, a Subscription can only be cancelled on or after the minimum duration date.

The level of remuneration for the Subscription can be amended unilaterally by OUTtv after expiry of the minimum duration; however, such price amendments only enter into effect one month after notification of the User. § 2.3 shall apply by analogy.
