Last Updated: June 1, 2024

PLEASE READ THESE SUBSCRIPTION TERMS OF SERVICE CAREFULLY AND COMPLETELY BEFORE USING THE WEATHER CHANNEL TELEVISION APP. BY USING THE WEATHER CHANNEL TELEVISION APP, OR OTHERWISE INDICATING YOUR ACCEPTANCE OF THESE SUBSCRIPTION TERMS OF SERVICE, YOU AGREE TO THESE SUBSCRIPTION TERMS OF SERVICE. IF YOU DO NOT WISH TO AGREE TO THESE SUBSCRIPTION TERMS OF SERVICE, YOU MAY NOT USE THE WEATHER CHANNEL TELEVISION APP.

IMPORTANT NOTICE REGARDING BINDING ARBITRATION: ANY DISPUTE BETWEEN YOU AND TWC, EXCEPT DISPUTES RESOLVED IN SMALL CLAIMS COURT, IS SUBJECT TO A CLASS ACTION WAIVER AND MUST BE RESOLVED BY INDIVIDUAL BINDING ARBITRATION.  PLEASE READ THE ARBITRATION PROVISION (SECTION 14 BELOW) CAREFULLY AS IT AFFECTS YOUR RIGHTS UNDER THIS CONTRACT.

1.  The Weather Channel Television App and Subscription Account. These Subscription Terms of Service (“Terms”) are between Weather Group Television, LLC and its affiliated companies (collectively "TWC") and you.  The services covered by these Terms ("Service") are limited solely to the Weather Channel Television App. The Service is intended for use by a general audience located in the United States (including its territories and possessions). You may not access or use the Service, or any portion thereof, if you are outside of the United States (including its territories and possessions) or are barred from receiving the Service under these Terms or applicable law. Users that are under 18 years of age or who do not have legal capacity to enter into these Terms may not subscribe to the Services or provide us with personal information.

Your subscription account (“Account”), including your user name and password used to access the Service (“Account Information”), are for personal, non-commercial use only. You may not transfer your Account to any other party. You are responsible for all use of your Account, including the use of your Account Information by other members of your household. If others use your Account (with or without your consent), you will be responsible for ensuring that they comply with these Terms. You are solely responsible for maintaining the security and confidentiality of your Account Information, and you agree to immediately notify us of any unauthorized use of your Account or other security breaches.

2.  Agreement to Privacy Policy.  By using the Service or by agreeing to these Terms, you are also agreeing to the terms of the Weather Channel Television App Privacy Policy (located at www.streamtwc.com/legal) and the collection, use, sharing and storage of information as described therein, including without limitation your personal or personally identifiable information.

3.  Subscriber Agreement.

A.  Third Party Platforms. Service subscriptions purchased through third party platforms (e.g., Roku, FireTV, AndroidTV, AppleTV) may be subject to the terms and conditions provided to you by the parties operating the applicable platform store ("platform operators"). Please contact those platform operators in connection with any issues regarding payments, renewals and refunds, but contact TWC Customer Support regarding the Content, features and functionality provided under your subscription, including any technical support issues. If you are unable to resolve any issues regarding payments, renewals and refunds with your platform operator, please contact TWC Customer Support and we will attempt to assist you.

B.  Service Eligibility. By subscribing to the Service, you represent that you are at least 18 years of age or older and reside in the United States. If you are under the age of majority in your country, state or territory, you represent that you either are an emancipated minor or you have obtained the legal consent of your parent or legal guardian to enter into this TWC Subscriber Agreement, use the Service, provide information to TWC, and fulfill the obligations stated in this TWC Subscriber Agreement, which forms a binding contract between you and TWC. You authorize TWC to collect, use, share and store the information you provide upon subscribing, if any, and thereafter in accordance with TWC's Privacy Policy. By subscribing, you represent and warrant that your email address and any other information that you choose to provide is accurate, and you agree to update such information as necessary. You acknowledge and agree that TWC may rely on the use of your log-in credentials (such as an email address along with a password) to provide access to your Account and the information you have provided. You are responsible for all use of your account and for ensuring that all use complies with this TWC Subscriber Agreement.

C.  Subscription and Auto-Renewal. Your subscription to the Service is provided for a specific billing period such as monthly or yearly, and unless otherwise noted in the terms of your offer, your subscription will continue and automatically renew at the end of the billing period you choose, unless canceled in accordance with the instructions for cancellation below. Payment for the first billing period in the amount shown to you at the time of purchase (plus applicable taxes) will be charged to your chosen payment method at confirmation of purchase, and because your subscription automatically renews, payment for each additional billing period (plus applicable taxes) will then be charged at the start of each additional billing period, unless you cancel your subscription. For subscriptions with a yearly billing period or longer, we will notify you of the pending renewal of your subscription at least thirty (30) days prior to the date your subscription renews, except as otherwise required by law. Unless we notify you in advance of a price change as further described below, the renewal rate for each additional billing period will be no more than the rate for the immediately prior billing period unless you received promotional or discount pricing as disclosed to you as part of a specific offer (for example, offers for a discounted first month or first year rate).  At any time, you can stop your subscription from renewing for an additional billing period after the then-current billing period by canceling your subscription as described below.

C. Cancellation. You may cancel the renewal of your Service subscription at any time before the end of the current billing period or free trial, and the cancellation will take effect at the end of the current billing period or free trial. If you cancel, your subscription will not renew for an additional billing period. Please note that you will not receive a prorated refund of charges for the current billing period, but you will continue to have access to the service through the end of the current billing period (through the end of the month, for a monthly subscription, or year, for an annual subscription). To cancel, you may log in to your account at www.streamtwc.com, select My Account, select Manage Subscription, and follow the prompts to cancel. If you purchased your Service subscription via a third party, please follow the cancellation instructions set out by the applicable third party.

D. Price Changes. We reserve the right to change the price of your subscription for billing periods after your then-current billing period. In the event of a price change, we will provide reasonable notice to you before the price change, such as by emailing you or by providing notice when you visit streamtwc.com, as required by law.  If you do not wish to agree to the changed price for future billing periods, you may cancel your subscription in accordance with the instructions for cancellation above. If you do not cancel your subscription after notice of the price change and prior to the start of your new billing period, your subscription will be renewed at the price in effect at the time of the renewal, without any additional action by you, and you authorize us to charge your payment method for the new price (plus applicable taxes).

E. Free Trials. From time to time, in our sole discretion, we may offer free trials allowing you to enjoy a Service subscription for a period of time at no charge. With a free trial offer, you provide a payment method and authorize us to charge the subscription price (plus applicable taxes) to your payment method and begin your paid subscription if you do not cancel (according to the instructions for cancellation above) before the free trial ends. You can cancel the subscription without incurring any charges any time before the end of your free trial. Unless otherwise required by law, you will not receive a notice that your free trial is about to end or has ended, or that your paid subscription has begun. Availability of a free trial is not guaranteed and, if available, may only be available to those who have not previously accepted a free trial offer for the Service, at our discretion.

F. Subscription Options. From time to time, we may offer different subscription options, including subscription bundles that include subscriptions offered by TWC along with those offered by third parties.  If you choose to purchase such offerings, you agree that we may charge your payment method on file for any included third-party products and services.

G. Refund Policy.  All subscriptions are non-refundable unless otherwise required by law. We do not provide refunds or credits, including for partially used billing periods, such as in the event that you decide to delete your streamtwc.com account, which would prevent you from being able to sign in and access the Service. If you cancel your subscription, you will continue to have access to the Service through the end of your current billing period (through the end of the month, for a monthly subscription, or year, for an annual subscription), but your subscription will not renew for an additional billing period.

H. Service Limitations. The number of simultaneous logged in sessions of the Service under your account is currently limited to three (3) sessions. We reserve the right to disable use of your subscription if we notice excessive sessions or other unusual activity using your account. The number of simultaneous sessions available for use may change from time to time at our discretion.

I. Subscriptions Obtained Through Third Parties. If you subscribe to the Service through a third party, your subscription is subject to any terms and conditions provided to you by that third party. Accordingly, the terms and conditions in this TWC Subscriber Agreement concerning purchase, billing, cancellation, and refunds do not apply to your subscription to the extent this TWC Subscriber Agreement conflicts with the applicable third party’s terms and conditions. Your billing relationship is with the third party, so any inquiries regarding purchase, billing, cancellation or refunds should be directed to the third party. To cancel a subscription obtained via a third party, you must follow the cancellation instructions provided by the third party.

J. Changes to Subscriber Agreement. TWC may modify the terms and conditions of this TWC Subscriber Agreement in its discretion. TWC will notify you of significant modifications by email or by providing notice through the Service. Modifications shall be effective immediately; provided however, for existing subscribers, such revisions shall, unless otherwise stated, be effective thirty (30) days after notice has been provided to you.

14.  Binding Arbitration and Class Action Waiver

PROCEEDINGS TO RESOLVE OR LITIGATE A DISPUTE IN ANY FORUM (WITH LIMITED EXCEPTION) WILL BE CONDUCTED THROUGH A BINDING, CONFIDENTIAL, INDIVIDUAL, AND FAIR ARBITRATION PROCESS.

A.  Neither you nor TWC will seek to have a Dispute (defined below) heard as a class action or in any other proceeding in which either party acts or proposes to act in a representative capacity. No arbitration or proceeding can be combined with another without the prior written consent of all parties involved therein. “Dispute” includes any dispute, action, or other controversy, whether based on past, present, or future events, between you and TWC concerning the Services or this Agreement, whether in contract, tort, warranty, statute, regulation, or other legal or equitable basis. You and TWC empower an arbitrator with the exclusive authority to resolve any Dispute relating to the interpretation, applicability or enforceability of these Terms or the formation of this contract, including the arbitrability of any Dispute and any claim that all or any part of this Agreement is void or voidable.

B.  In the event of a Dispute, you or TWC must first send by mail to the other a written notice of the Dispute (“Notice”) that sets forth the name, address, and contact information of the party giving notice, the specific facts giving rise to the Dispute, the Service(s) to which the Notice relates, and the relief requested. Your Notice to TWC must be sent by mail to the corporate address provided herein. TWC will send any Notice to you at the contact information it has for you or that you provide. It is the sender’s responsibility to ensure that the recipient receives the Notice. You and TWC will attempt to resolve a dispute through informal negotiation within sixty (60) days from the date the Notice is sent. After that sixty (60) day period, you or TWC may commence an arbitration proceeding. Alternatively, you litigate the Dispute in small claims court if such Dispute meets the requirements to be heard in small claims court.

C.  If you and TWC do not resolve the Dispute by informal negotiation or in small claims court, the Dispute shall be resolved by final, binding arbitration conducted before a single neutral arbitrator. The arbitration shall be administered by JAMS pursuant to its Comprehensive Arbitration Rules and Procedures or pursuant to JAMS’ Streamlined Arbitration Rules and Procedures (“JAMS Rules”), as modified by this Agreement. YOU ARE GIVING UP THE RIGHT TO LITIGATE A DISPUTE IN COURT BEFORE A JUDGE OR JURY. The JAMS Rules and instructions about how to initiate an arbitration are available at www.jamsadr.com or 1-800-352-5267.

D.  This Agreement and the rights of the parties hereunder shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Georgia, exclusive of conflict or choice of law rules. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, any arbitration conducted pursuant to the terms of this Agreement shall be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act (9 U.S.C. §§ 1-16).

E.  In accordance with the JAMS Rules, the party initiating the arbitration (either you or TWC) is responsible for paying the filing fee. Each party shall be responsible for and bear its own costs and attorneys’ fees, except as otherwise required by applicable law.

F.  You and TWC agree to maintain the confidential nature of the arbitration proceeding and shall not disclose the fact of the arbitration, any documents exchanged as part of any informal negotiation, proceedings of the arbitration, the arbitrator’s decision, and the existence or amount of any award, except as may be necessary to prepare for or conduct the arbitration (in which case anyone becoming privy to confidential information must undertake to preserve its confidentiality), or except as may be necessary in connection with a court application for a provisional remedy, a judicial challenge to an award or its enforcement, an order confirming the award, or unless otherwise required by law or court order.

G. This Section 21 shall survive termination of this agreement and/or any subscription to any Services which you may have.

If you have questions or concerns about the meaning of any provision of this arbitration agreement, please feel free to seek the counsel of an attorney.

15.  Miscellaneous.
