Terms
Elliel™ provides a personalized subscription service that allows our members to access OTT content like movies, documentaries, podcasts, music, and TV shows, web series (“Elliel™ content”) streamed over the Internet to certain Internet-connected mobile devices, Smart TVs, computers, and other devices (“Elliel™ ready devices”). Elliel™ also provides independent artists, charities, and non-profit to run campaigns otherwise known as Fundraisers. The user on the Elliel™ services can unlock EXCLUSIVE CONTENT by subscribing to the services and help the artists, charities, and non-profits raise funds for their campaigns.
These “Terms” or “Terms of Use” or “Terms of Service” govern your use of our service. As used in these Terms of Use, “Elliel™ service,” “our service” or “the service” means the personalized service provided by Elliel™ for discovering and watching Elliel™ content, including all features and functionalities, recommendations and reviews, the mobile application(s), the website, and user interfaces, as well as all content and software associated with our service.
- Membership
- Your Elliel™ membership will continue until terminated. To use the Elliel™ service, you must have Internet access and an Elliel™ ready device, and provide us with one or more Payment Methods. “Payment Method” means a current, valid, accepted method of payment, as may be updated from time to time and which may include payment through your account with a third party. Unless you cancel your membership before your billing date, you authorize us to charge the membership fee to your Payment Method for the next billing cycle (see “Cancellation” below).
- We may offer several membership plans, including memberships offered by third parties in conjunction with the provision of their own products and services. We are not responsible for the products and services provided by such third parties. Some membership plans may have differing conditions and limitations, disclosed at your sign-up or in other communications made available to you. You can find specific details regarding your Elliel™ membership by visiting our mobile application or website and clicking on the “Account” link available at the top of the pages under your profile name.
- Promotional Offers: We may, from time to time, offer special promotional offers, plans, or memberships (“Offers”). Offer eligibility is determined by Elliel™ at its sole discretion, and we reserve the right to revoke an Offer and put your account on hold if we determine you are not eligible. Members of households with an existing or recent Elliel™ membership may not be eligible for certain introductory Offers. We may use information such as device ID, method of payment, or an account email address used with an existing or recent Elliel™ membership to determine Offer eligibility. The eligibility requirements and other limitations and conditions will be disclosed when you sign-up for the Offers or in other communications made available to you. The offers may also include “Early Birds Offers,” which give special discounted prices to our members.
- Donations & Campaigns
- Elliel™ offers its users to donate and help independent artists, charities, and non-profits to raise funds on our platforms through campaigns. As a user, you can support these campaigns in various ways, including but not limited to one-time donations, monthly donations, or annual donations. The donation subscription is controlled and managed by our payments providers, as mentioned in our “Privacy Policy“. The payments for these campaigns are processed by our payment provider(s). There is a lot of exclusive content available on the web by independent artists, and by donating, you’re helping them raise funds for their next project. We have various campaigns that focus on supporting charities, homeless people, strays, and more. You, as a user, are the voice of the Elliel™ platform and its services. Our official non-profit partner is mentioned under Elliel™ Ventures (https://www.ellielapp.com/legal/corps).
- Elliel™ offers a great way for users who support the campaigns. Unlike any other platform. Our OTT services and the Elliel™ content is not only limited to a subscription but can also be unlocked by supporting the campaigns with one-time donations or recurring donations. With these donations, you can also unlock exclusive Elliel™ content and special feature that are not available with the Elliel™ membership. The donations on the Elliel™ platform are governed by law and are managed by a fully incorporated non-profit, as mentioned above.
- Billing and Cancellation
- Billing Cycle: The membership fee or donations for the Elliel™ service or campaigns respectively and any other charges you may incur in connection with your use of the service, such as taxes and possible transaction fees, will be charged to your Payment Method on the specific payment date indicated on the “Account” page. The length of your billing cycle will depend on the type of subscription that you chose when you signed up for the service or while donating to a campaign. In some cases, your payment date may change, for example, if your Payment Method has not successfully settled, when you change your subscription plan or if your paid membership began on a day not contained in a given month. Open the mobile application and click on the “Subscription Details” under the “Account” section in the mobile application or website to see your next payment date. Elliel™ usually makes it possible to charge membership fees between the 1st and 10th of every month following on a pro-rata basis. We may authorize your Payment Method in anticipation of membership or service-related charges through various methods, including authorizing it for up to approximately one month of service as soon as you register. If you signed up for Elliel™ using your account with a third party as a Payment Method, you could find the billing information about your Elliel™ membership by visiting your account with the applicable third party.
- Payment Methods: To use the Elliel™ service and unlock its exclusive content, you must provide one or more valid Payment Methods. You authorize us to charge any Payment Method associated with your account in case your primary Payment Method is declined or no longer available to us for payment of your subscription fee or donations. You remain responsible for any uncollected amounts. If payment is not successfully settled due to expiration, insufficient funds, or otherwise, and you do not cancel your account, we may suspend your access to the service until we have successfully charged a valid Payment Method. For some Payment Methods, the issuer may charge you certain fees, such as foreign transaction fees or other fees relating to the processing of your Payment Method. Local tax charges may vary depending on the Payment Method used. Check with your Payment Method service provider for details.
- Updating Payment Methods: You can update your Payment Methods by going to the “Account” section in the mobile application or website.

To cancel, go to the “Account” section in the mobile application or website, and follow the instructions for cancellation. If you cancel your membership, your account will automatically close at the end of your current billing period. To see when your account will close, click “Subscription Details” on the “Account” section of the mobile application or website.
