1. INTRODUCTION

Welcome to Sportsnet+, a video streaming service (the “Service”) provided by or on behalf of Rogers Media Inc. and its affiliates (collectively, “us”, “we”, “our” or “Rogers”). The Service offers streaming of live Sportsnet channels and other live or on-demand sports content, along with social sharing, photographs, statistics and other related content (“Content”) available to you from time to time through https://watch.sportsnet.ca/ or any software application that you have downloaded (“Software”) to view the Content (each, a “Site”). “You” and “your” means, as applicable, you and every person who uses the Service through your account. Please read these terms of service (“Terms”) carefully before you use a Site. By using any Site, you agree to abide by these Terms. If you don’t agree to comply with these Terms, then you may not use the Service or any Site. In these Terms, “residents of Québec” means residents of Québec to whom the Consumer Protection Act (Québec) applies in connection with the use of a Site and the Service.

2. AVAILABILITY AND ACCESS

(a) Availability. The Service is only available to users of a Site while in Canada who have (i) registered for the Service (“Registered User”), and (ii) have agreed to pay to use the Service on a subscription basis in order to access certain Content (“Subscription Content”) or have been given access to Subscription Content by subscribing to certain services offered by an affiliate of Rogers or a third party authorized by us (together, an “Authorized Distributor”), although limited portions of the Service are available to users that do not satisfy both (i) and (ii). Your Authorized Distributor may deal with you directly for certain aspects relating to the Service, including payment, cancellation and other arrangements. You acknowledge and agree that Rogers is not responsible for those dealings that are solely between you and your Authorized Distributor.

(b) Access. Not all aspects of the Service, including, without limitation, certain Content viewing and access to high-quality video, will be available to you unless the applicable personal computer, gaming device, tablet device, mobile device or other digital device (each, a “Digital Device”) you use to access the Service and your Internet connection satisfy the Service’s minimum technical requirements available at https://www.sportsnetplus.ca/faq. We may change these requirements from time to time at our sole discretion. Unless we specify otherwise, you are solely responsible for updating or maintaining your Digital Device and Internet connection as necessary to meet these requirements and all associated costs. Since the Service is transmitted over the Internet, you may experience, from time to time, video and/or audio dropouts, rebuffering or loss of connection. You are responsible for any data/roaming usage and charges you incur to access the Service through an Internet connection.

(c) Blackouts. Some Subscription Content will be blacked out and not available to you based on where you live, the television services that you may or may not subscribe to and/or where you are located at the time you attempt to view that Subscription Content. In addition, some Subscription Content that is available on an equivalent linear TV channel (such as Sportsnet) will be blacked out and unavailable to you through the Service if Rogers does not own the right to make such Subscription Content available to you through the Service. Where feasible, Rogers may provide on a Site alternative Content in the place of any blacked-out Subscription Content. Any attempt to tamper with or circumvent a blackout restriction described in this subsection is a breach of these Terms resulting in cancellation of the Service in accordance with subsection 15(a). For a full list of blackouts and/or blackout rules, see https://www.sportsnetplus.ca/faq. Content subject to blackouts may change from time-to- time.

(d) Access Verification and Payment Processing.

3. REGISTRATION, ACCOUNT AND PASSWORD

You agree that any information you supply to become a Registered User will be accurate and complete and that you will not register under the name of, nor attempt to use the Service under the name of, another person. You agree to promptly update any information necessary to ensure that your registration is kept accurate, current and complete. You are responsible for preserving the confidentiality of your Registered User credentials and will notify us immediately of any known or suspected unauthorized use of Registered User credentials and agree to take any reasonable steps necessary to prevent any reoccurrence.

Therefore, you must take steps to ensure that others do not gain unauthorized access to the Service through any means, including without limitation, wireless networking and wired networking. The Service may not be used to breach the security of another user or to attempt to gain access to any other person’s equipment, software or data, without the knowledge and consent of that person. Additionally, the Service may not be used in any attempt to circumvent the user authentication or security of any host, network, or account, including without limitation, accessing data not intended for you, logging into or making use of a server or account you are not expressly authorized to access, or probing the security of other networks. Use or distribution of tools designed for compromising security, such as password guessing programs, cracking tools, packet sniffers or network probing tools, is prohibited. You may not disrupt the Service. The Service also may not be used to interfere with computer networking or telecommunications services to any user, host or network, including without limitation, denial of service attacks, flooding of a network, overloading a service, improper seizing and abuse of operator privileges and attempts to “crash” a host.
