You must be at least 18 years old to subscribe. By signing up, you attest that you are legally capable of entering into a binding contract.

Your account is for your personal use only.

One Person, Multiple Devices: You may access your private audio feed on your phone, tablet, and computer.

If you subscribe to the Founding Member plan, your annual subscription rate is guaranteed to never increase, subject to the following strict conditions:

Continuous Subscription: You must maintain an active, paid subscription without interruption.
Loss of Status: If you cancel your subscription, or if your payment method fails and is not updated within the grace period, your subscription will lapse. If you choose to resubscribe later, you will be subject to the then-current market rate.

All subscriptions automatically renew at the end of the billing period (annually). You will be charged the rate stated at the time of purchase (or your locked Founding Member rate). You may cancel auto-renewal at any time in your Account Settings.

3.4 Price Changes

For non-Founding Members, we reserve the right to change subscription pricing with at least 30 days' notice via email. If you do not agree to the price change, you may cancel before the new rate takes effect.
