TERMS OF SERVICE
This APTN lumi Terms of Service Agreement (the "Agreement" or "Terms of Service") is made between Aboriginal Peoples Television Network Incorporated ("APTN," "we," "us," or "our") and you, our customer ("you" or "your"). APTN provides live streaming services through our owned-and-operated websites, applications, and embeddable video players and mobile app to devices that are connected through the Internet (collectively, the "Services"). This Agreement governs your use of our Services.
1. Acceptance
BY USING THE SERVICES, OR BY CLICKING TO ACCEPT THESE TERMS OF SERVICE, YOU ACCEPT AND AGREE TO BE BOUND AND COMPLY WITH THESE TERMS OF SERVICE AND OUR PRIVACY POLICY, INCORPORATED HEREIN BY REFERENCE. IF YOU DO NOT AGREE TO THESE TERMS AND CONDITIONS OR THE PRIVACY POLICY, YOU MUST NOT ACCESS OR USE THE SERVICES.
By creating an account, viewing videos, making a purchase, downloading our software, sending email or text messages to us, or otherwise visiting or using our Services, you are communicating with us electronically. You consent to receive communications from us electronically. We will communicate with you by email, text messages or by posting notices on, or through, the Services. You agree that all agreements, notices, disclosures and other communications that we provide to you electronically, satisfy any legal requirement that such communications be in writing and/or signed.
If you are an entity other than a natural person, the person who registers the account or otherwise uses our Services must have the authority to bind the entity. In this context, "you" means both the entity and each person who is authorized to access the account.
2. Our Products and Services
Right to Access: Subject to the terms hereof, we grant you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable right to access our Services and the content displayed or accessed by, through or in the Services (the "Content"). This includes the right to watch videos that you have the right to view and to use all related functionality that we may provide. No other right or interest is granted to you.
The features available to you will depend on your plan. We may change features from time to time. If you have a paid account, we commit to providing the core streaming features of your plan during your current paid-up service period.
3. Accounts
Registration: You may create an account to use certain features we offer. To do so, you must provide an email address and other requested information. You consent to receive notices from APTN at this email address.
Organizational Accounts: Corporate, governmental, and other organizational users must publicly display the legal name of their entity on their public account profile.
Age Requirements: You must be the age of majority in the Canadian province or territory in which you reside in order to subscribe to the Services. In cases where you have allowed a minor to use the Services, you recognize that you are fully responsible for: (a) the conduct of such minor; (b) controlling the minor's access to and use of the Services; and (c) the consequences of any use or misuse of the Services by the minor. You acknowledge that Content displayed or accessed through the Services may contain mature Content that may be inappropriate for minors. We may offer tools that are intended to assist you in controlling the Content a minor may view through your registered account, such as parental controls. However, you remain responsible for the use of the Services by the minor as described in this Section 3, and we cannot be held responsible for any error in, failure of, or circumvention of such tools. We recommend that you always monitor the Content the minor views and do not rely solely on tools such as parental controls.

APTN reserves all rights not expressly granted herein. APTN's rights and remedies are cumulative.
