Introduction: Within the environment of OTT BARÇA ONE, a personalised subscription service is established that allows registered users access to exclusive benefits not available for standard registration (ad-free content access, downloading content for offline viewing, etc.). The user subscribing (SUBSCRIBER) to the mentioned Service is subject to both these specific conditions and the rest of the Terms and Conditions. Likewise, as access to BARÇA ONE is granted, the SUBSCRIBER must expressly accept these conditions at the time of subscribing.

The SUBSCRIBER is solely responsible for maintaining the confidentiality and security of their username and password and for all activities and use of the services that occur from their account or subscription and/or through them. However, if the registered user allows access of third parties to their Barça Account, the terms and conditions of this contract apply to the access and use of the services by said third party.

In this case, BARÇA STUDIOS must notify the SUBSCRIBER by email at least thirty (30) days before the new rates take effect. If the SUBSCRIBER does not wish to accept the price change, they can cancel their subscription, and this cancellation will take effect at the end of the current billing period.
