Apple TV+ vs Deezer

Apple can terminate your account or cut off access without notice if it suspects a terms violation. You may still owe any unpaid amounts even after termination.

The service is provided as-is and as-available, with broad warranty disclaimers and limited remedies. If something breaks, your legal options may be narrow except where local law overrides this.

Apple limits liability for many indirect or consequential damages, and the standard app EULA caps total liability at $250 in many cases. This can significantly restrict compensation if the service causes losses.

Apple says it does not sell personal data or share it for third-party marketing. That is a meaningful privacy benefit compared with many ad-supported platforms.

Users can request access, correction, transfer, restriction, deletion, and consent withdrawal through Apple’s privacy portal. Apple also says users should not receive worse service for exercising those rights.

Subscriptions renew automatically unless you cancel in account settings, and billing can happen within 24 hours before renewal. Free trials also need to be canceled at least 24 hours before they end to avoid charges.

Apple reserves the right to modify, suspend, or discontinue services or content at any time, with or without notice. That means features or access can change unilaterally after signup.

Even purchased or downloaded content may later become unavailable if Apple loses distribution rights. Users are told to back up content, but continued access is not guaranteed.

Apple says it keeps personal data only as long as necessary and works to retain it for the shortest period allowed by law. This is better than an open-ended retention clause.

Apple promises at least a week’s advance notice for material privacy policy changes, and may contact you directly. That gives users some warning before major privacy terms shift.

If you submit reviews, photos, videos, or similar materials, you grant Apple a worldwide, royalty-free, perpetual license to use them in services, marketing, and internal purposes. Users should not post anything they expect to control tightly later.

Disputes generally go to California courts, but users in the EU, UK, Switzerland, Norway, and Iceland can use local law and courts. This is better for some users, but not a broad pro-consumer dispute clause overall.

Paid plans renew automatically unless you cancel, and cancellation generally must be submitted at least 48 hours before the end of the current period. This raises the risk of being charged for another cycle if you forget.

Once the service starts, Deezer says you waive the usual 14-day withdrawal right and generally cannot get cancellation or refund for the subscribed period. Practically, accidental or quickly regretted purchases may be hard to reverse.

If you use the free service, Deezer may build an advertising profile and show targeted ads for Deezer and third parties, including on third-party sites/apps. Opting out leads to generic ads, not no ads.

Disputes go first to customer support and free mediation, but unresolved claims can still be brought in the courts of your usual residence. That is more user-friendly than mandatory arbitration or distant forum clauses.

Users can delete their account and associated personal data in account settings or by contacting support, and can also request access and a copy of their data. This gives meaningful control over exit and data access.

Deezer may suspend or terminate access without notice for violations, nonpayment, false information, commercial harm, or abusive conduct toward support. Some triggers are broad, giving Deezer significant discretion over account access.

Deezer can change the terms at its discretion with one month’s notice, and continued use means the new rules apply. Users who disagree generally must cancel rather than negotiate.

Most account, usage, search, location, and advertising-related data can be kept for 3 years after your last interaction, and transaction records for 10 years, with some archive retention beyond that. This is longer than many users would expect for a streaming service.

Deezer promises advance notice for term changes, price increases, temporary interruptions where possible, and permanent shutdowns. This gives users some time to react or cancel before changes take effect.

Deezer says it uses an external payment provider and does not retain your payment method details, though it keeps transaction records. That can reduce the sensitivity of payment data held directly by Deezer.

Deezer says it does not rely solely on algorithms to make decisions that significantly affect you without human review. This limits the risk of important fully automated decisions.
