While you can browse our Website without creating a user account (“Account”), the use by you of any Services or access to any Services or Materials via our App requires you to have an Account. In creating an Account, you must provide us with accurate and complete registration information as prompted during the registration process, including your name, a valid email address, and username, and a password of your choice, subject to certain requirements. Each Account registration is for a single user only. You may not misrepresent your identity or your affiliation with any person or organization and you may never use another user’s Account for any purpose whatsoever.

In no event will the BeUnison Parties be liable to you or anyone else for loss, damage or injury relating to any third-party providing you with services.

12. Dispute Resolution / Mediation / No Class Relief
If any controversy, allegation or claim arises out of or relates to your access or use of the Services, Digital Properties and/or Materials, or these Terms, then you and we agree to send a written notice to the other providing a reasonable description of the dispute, along with a proposed resolution thereto. If we do not have a current physical or email address for you, then we have no obligation under this section. Your notice to us must be sent to us at our contact details below. For a period of sixty (60) days from the date of receipt of notice from the other party, we will engage in a dialogue with you in order to attempt to resolve the dispute though nothing will require either of us to resolve the dispute on terms with respect to which either you or we, in each of our sole discretion, are not comfortable. If you have any concerns or objections regarding any financial charges, you agree not to cancel or reject any credit card or third-party payment processing charges until and unless you have made a reasonable attempt at resolving the matter directly with us.
Any claim or dispute arising out of or relating to your access or use of the Services, Digital Properties and/or Materials, or these Terms, that remain unresolved following the dialogue described above will be exclusively resolved under confidential binding arbitration held in the Province of British Columbia, Canada, in accordance with the applicable Rules of the Canadian Arbitration Association then in effect. The arbitrator’s award, if any, will be binding and may be entered as a judgment in any court of competent jurisdiction. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, disputes will be mediated only on an individual basis and will not be consolidated with any other proceedings that involve any claim or controversy of any other party, whether through class arbitration proceedings or otherwise. But if, for any reason, any court with competent jurisdiction or any mediator selected pursuant to this section holds that this restriction is unconscionable or unenforceable, then our agreement to mediate in this section will not apply and the dispute must be brought exclusively in court pursuant to the following paragraph.
Except to the extent that mediation is required, any action or proceeding relating to any dispute may only be instituted in a court of competent jurisdiction in the Province of British Columbia, Canada. Accordingly, you and we consent to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of such courts for such matters.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, we will have the right to seek injunctive or other equitable relief in a court of competent jurisdiction in the Province of British Columbia, Canada to enforce these Terms or to prevent an infringement of a third party’s rights. In the event equitable relief is sought, each party hereby irrevocably submits to the jurisdiction of such court. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, any cause of action you may have with respect to your use of or access to the Services, Digital Properties or Materials must be commenced within one year after the claim or cause of action arises.

Service Specific Terms
BeUnison App
BeUnison offers a mobile application that provides access to specific functionalities and Materials (the “BeUnison App”). We may introduce iOS, Android or web-based versions of the BeUnison App at our discretion. Additionally, we may discontinue the App, including web-based versions of such App, at any time for any reason with no liability or obligation to you except as expressly set forth herein. In the event you have an Account, you may log-in to our App using your Account credentials, though the services, programs or features of such App that are available to you will depend on your specific subscription and prior purchase history. In the sections that follow, we may be referring to any or all of the iOS, Android or web versions of our App as the context indicates.
The BeUnison App offers meditations, exercises, audio-visual materials, and practices with a healing approach to help users connect with themselves and others. Certain content is available in the BeUnison App for free, though you will need to have a valid Account to access such free content. Additional content is available in the BeUnison App with a paid subscription. You may purchase a subscription to the BeUnison App on an annual or yearly basis or such other duration as we may authorize in our sole discretion (each such duration, the “Subscription Term”). If you have never previously subscribed to the BeUnison App, your BeUnison App subscription may start with a free trial to the subscription service (the “Free Trial”). The duration of your Free Trial will be communicated to you upon your subscription to the BeUnison App. You may still subscribe to the BeUnison App without a Free Trial though in such case billing, as described below, will commence immediately.
You may cancel your subscription prior to the end of the Free Trial, if applicable, with no further obligation or liability to us with respect to the BeUnison App. Otherwise, billing for your subscription will commence at the end of the Free Trial at the rate communicated to you upon initiation of your subscription. Unless cancelled no less than 24-hours prior to the end of your Subscription Term, your subscription will automatically renew. The entire amount due for the next Subscription Term will be charged to the payment method we have for you on the first day of such renewed Subscription Term, which may be any date during the month depending on when your initial subscription commenced. Please note that you may not receive a notice from us regarding an upcoming charge, either due to the end of your Free Trial or the renewal of your subscription for another Subscription Term. We reserve the right to adjust pricing for the BeUnison App in any manner and at any time as we may determine in our sole and absolute discretion. Any such price changes will take effect following notification to you and only upon the renewal of your subscription for another Subscription Term. Increases or decreases in subscription prices for the BeUnison App will not apply retroactively or to any partial period within a Subscription Term.
You may cancel your subscription or confirm your Subscription Term end date by contacting us at help@beunison.com. Following any cancellation, your subscription will remain active through the end of your then-current Subscription Term. With the limited exception of your initial annual subscription or a lifetime subscription to the BeUnison App, subscription fees are fully earned upon payment and, accordingly, payments are nonrefundable. You may cancel your first annual subscription or a lifetime subscription purchase within the first thirty (30) days of your access to subscription-based content and any associated charges will be promptly refunded to you.
When you register for a Free Trial or otherwise subscribe to the Services via the Digital Properties you will be required to provide a valid payment method in order for us to begin billing your subscription fee at the conclusion of the Free Trial or immediately, as the case may be. Please note that we may authorize your payment as soon as you register for a Free Trial and this authorization may impact the balance and available credit of your account with the relevant payment method. By providing your payment method, you expressly authorize us to charge your designated payment method at the start of each Subscription Term at the then-current subscription rate. If a payment is not successfully settled for any reason, including due to expiration of your payment method, insufficient funds, or otherwise, you remain responsible for any uncollected amounts and authorize us to continue billing your designated payment method, as it may be updated. For certain payment methods, the issuer of your payment method may charge you a foreign transaction fee or other charges. Check with your payment method service provider for details. We reserve the right not to process, to delay processing pending receipt of additional verification regarding your identity, or to cancel your order or your subscription and access to the BeUnison App at any time and for any reason or no reason in our sole discretion including in the event we are unable to charge your payment method. In the event we cancel your subscription during a Subscription Term, excluding a lifetime term, other than as a result of your breach of these Terms, we will refund a pro-rata amount of your subscription fees for the remainder of your Subscription Term. You are responsible for ensuring your payment method is up to date by communicating any changes to us at help@beunison.com.
We may offer the BeUnison App as part of a bundle of offerings with other BeUnison products or services. In such instances, all of the terms applicable to the individual products and services included in such bundle will apply to such products and services except that the refund policy for all components of such bundle will match the policy with the shortest term of the various products and services in such bundle.
Please note that if you subscribe to the BeUnison App via the Apple App Store or Google Play Store, as the case may be, the above description of the BeUnison app policies and procedures may be superseded by the refund, billing, cancellation and other policies and procedures of the Apple App Store or Google Play Store, as the case may be.
