We may retain a copy of the contract details for our own records. If we cannot accept your order we will inform you by email. This may be because, for example (i) there has been a pricing error (see section 3) (ii) you failed to provide required information (see section 1.3) (iii) you have tried to order a subscription package which is not available in your territory or for which you are otherwise not eligible (see section 11.5) (iv) there has been an error in your initial payment of the subscription fee or (v) we have been affected by a recent unforeseen event which means Sunderland AFC’s SAFSEE streaming service cannot be made available in whole or part.
1.2 By submitting your order to us you confirm that:
1.2.1. you are at least 18 years old;
1.2.2. you are solely resident in the correct territory for your chosen subscription package. Please note content included in some subscription packages is only available in certain territories due to rights restrictions. Change to the territory in which you are located may affect availability of certain content; and
1.2.3. the information which you provide is true, accurate and complete in all respects at that time. You must also notify us immediately of any changes to your information during your subscription by either updating the details in the My Account page of the Site or emailing safseesupport@streamamg.com. As above, changes to your located territory may affect content access.
1.3. If we find that you have provided incorrect or inadequate information, your order may not be accepted and/or we may ask you to provide the correct and complete information. If you still fail to do so within a reasonable time, we may reject your order or end the contract (in the case of your error being uncovered after we have already accepted your order – see section 8). We will not be responsible for delay or failure in providing you access to all or part of video.leedsunited.com if this is caused by you failing to provide us with the information needed and/or updating us of material changes to your information.

5. Automatic Renewal
5.1. This section 5 does not apply to any single match or other pay per view arrangement.
5.2. Your subscription is for the Subscription Period and will, unless we notify you otherwise, be automatically renewed at the end of the previous Subscription Period for a further equivalent period. We will not normally send you reminders of renewal, unless there are changes in your renewal period you need to be aware of (see changes and updates section).
5.3. WEEKLY/MONTHLY/ANNUAL Subscriptions: This section does not apply to any single match or other express pay per view arrangement. You can unsubscribe from Sunderland AFC’s SAFSEE streaming service with effect from the end of your WEEKLY/MONTHLY/ANNUAL Subscription Period (or relevant renewal week) by contacting us at safseesupport@streamamg.com not less than 5 days prior to the date of renewal. Your subscription will continue until the end of the week in which you notify us in accordance with this section and you will continue to be charged for that week. Unless you have opted to unsubscribe from Sunderland AFC’s SAFSEE streaming service not less than 5 days prior to the date of renewal your subscription will be automatically renewed. You will be deemed to have accepted the renewal on the terms and basis set out in the reminder (or, for WEEKLY/MONTHLY/ANNUAL subscriptions where we have not notified you in advance of changes, on the same terms as your previous subscription). You will be charged in accordance with the same timings as under the payment plan applicable to your immediately preceding Subscription Period, unless otherwise notified to you as part of any reminder above. If you have unsubscribed from Sunderland AFC’s SAFSEE streaming service rather than renewing and you previously paid by direct debit, you are responsible for ensuring that you cancel your direct debit through your bank in order to prevent any future payments being taken by us.

5.4. Other Subscriptions: The following process will apply to your renewal:
5.4.1. at the same time as that reminder, you will also be informed of:

5.4.1.3. action you need to take if you do not want your subscription to be automatically renewed. Usually this will require you to email confirmation that you want to unsubscribe to safseesupport@streamamg.com not less than 5 days prior to the date of renewal;
5.4.1.4. any other information we believe may be relevant to the renewed Subscription Period; and
5.5. Unless you have opted to unsubscribe from Sunderland AFC’s SAFSEE streaming service not less than 5 days prior to the date of renewal your subscription will be automatically renewed. You will be deemed to have accepted the renewal on the terms and basis set out in the reminder (or, for WEEKLY/MONTHLY/ANNUAL subscriptions where we have not notified you in advance of changes, on the same terms as your previous subscription). You will be charged in accordance with the same timings as under the payment plan applicable to your immediately preceding Subscription Period, unless otherwise notified to you as part of any reminder above.
5.6. If you have unsubscribed from Sunderland AFC’s SAFSEE streaming service rather than renewing and you previously paid by direct debit, you are responsible for ensuring that you cancel your direct debit through your bank in order to prevent any future payments being taken by us. Save for returning payments received by us in error on request from you, we will not accept any liability for payments taken from your bank account as a result of your failure to cancel the direct debit instruction at your bank, including (for example only) interest charges and other fees.
6. Cancellation and Refunds – Please read carefully

You will not therefore be entitled to cancel the contract or have any fourteen (14) day ‘cooling off’ period in law, nor receive a refund of the Fee. This does not affect any other rights you may have at law, including where we are at fault. Please see the Automatic Renewal section (Section 5) above regarding cancellation after any automatic renewal. When you acquire a subscription, you acknowledge and agree to all terms and conditions and auto-renewal of your subscription. You may cancel your subscription for the services by logging in and going to the “My Account” page and clicking on the “Cancel” button. You may cancel your subscription to the services at any time prior to the expiry of your subscription period, but you will continue to have access to the services for the duration of your subscription period.
