By accessing or using REJ.World, you agree to be bound by these Terms to the extent permitted by applicable law.

If you do not agree to these Terms, you should not use the relevant REJ.World services.

Nothing in these Terms excludes, restricts or overrides any mandatory rights that cannot lawfully be excluded under applicable consumer protection law.

2. ELIGIBILITY AND AGE REQUIREMENTS

REJ.World is intended for users aged 16 and over.

By creating an account, purchasing a subscription or using services that require user registration, you confirm that you meet the applicable age requirement and have legal capacity to enter into the relevant agreement, or otherwise have any legally required authorisation.

REJ.World is not directed at children.

Additional age requirements imposed by:

  • an app store;
  • payment provider;
  • device platform;
  • applicable law;

may also apply.

3. NATURE OF REJ.WORLD

REJ.World is an independent fan-operated platform dedicated to celebrating the music, career and legacy of Elton John through podcasts, live audio, interviews, discussions and related content.

REJ.World is not affiliated with, endorsed by, sponsored by or officially connected with Elton John, his management, record companies or affiliated companies, unless expressly stated otherwise in relation to a specific authorised activity.

References to names, trademarks, works or other protected material are not intended to imply official affiliation or endorsement.

All trademarks and other third-party rights remain the property of their respective owners.

4. ACCOUNTS

Certain REJ.World features may require an account or other form of user identification.

4.1 Website Accounts

To access certain website features or Platinum content, users may be required to create an account and provide information such as:

  • user ID or username;
  • first name;
  • last name;
  • email address;
  • password.

You agree to provide information that is accurate and reasonably up to date.

4.2 Mobile Application Access

The REJ.World mobile application may require an email address or other information necessary to:

  • identify the user;
  • manage access;
  • associate subscription or membership status;
  • provide relevant application functionality.

The precise account and access mechanisms may differ between the website and mobile application.

4.3 Account Security

You are responsible for:

  • maintaining the confidentiality of your credentials;
  • using reasonable security measures;
  • preventing unauthorised use of your account;
  • notifying us promptly if you reasonably believe your account has been compromised.

You must not knowingly allow another person to impersonate you or use your account in violation of these Terms.

5. PLATINUM MEMBERSHIP

REJ.World offers a premium membership known as Platinum.

Platinum may provide access to features or content such as:

  • premium podcasts;
  • exclusive audio content;
  • selected programmes;
  • other premium features made available from time to time.

The exact catalogue of Platinum content may change.

Unless expressly stated otherwise, purchasing Platinum does not give you ownership of any podcast, recording, programme, file or other content.

You receive only a limited right to access the applicable service and content in accordance with these Terms.

6. PERSONAL AND NON-TRANSFERABLE MEMBERSHIP

Platinum membership is:

  • personal;
  • non-transferable;
  • intended solely for the subscriber who obtained it.

You must not:

  • sell your membership;
  • transfer your membership;
  • share account credentials for the purpose of giving another person unauthorised access;
  • commercially exploit your access;
  • circumvent access controls;
  • make Platinum content available to unauthorised third parties.

This does not necessarily prevent normal use across multiple personal devices where technically supported and permitted by the relevant platform.

7. WEBSITE PLATINUM SUBSCRIPTION

At the date of these Terms, Platinum membership purchased through the REJ.World website is offered at:

USD $5.00 per year

unless a different price is clearly disclosed before purchase.

Website Platinum subscriptions are currently processed through PayPal.

The website subscription:

  • is billed annually;
  • renews automatically unless cancelled in accordance with the applicable cancellation process;
  • has no free trial;
  • normally provides access after successful payment confirmation.

Before purchase, users should review:

  • the price;
  • billing frequency;
  • automatic renewal terms;
  • payment provider information;
  • applicable cancellation information.

Prices may change for future subscription periods, subject to applicable law and any notice required by law.

8. AUTOMATIC RENEWAL

Where a Platinum subscription is offered on an automatically renewing basis, it will renew according to the billing period disclosed at the time of purchase unless automatic renewal is cancelled.

For the current website Platinum subscription, the billing period is annual.

Automatic renewal means that the applicable payment method may be charged for a new subscription period unless renewal is cancelled before the applicable renewal point, subject to:

  • applicable law;
  • payment provider procedures;
  • platform rules;
  • any mandatory cooling-off or cancellation rights.

We intend to present material subscription terms clearly before purchase.

Where applicable law requires:

  • renewal notices;
  • reminders;
  • additional consent;
  • a particular cancellation method;
  • a cooling-off period;
  • a post-renewal cancellation right;

those mandatory requirements apply.

9. PAYMENTS

Payments may be processed by third-party providers.

Depending on the platform, these may include:

  • PayPal;
  • Google Play Billing;
  • Apple In-App Purchase;
  • another payment provider clearly identified before purchase.

REJ.World does not intend to collect or store full payment card details directly.

You agree to provide valid payment information to the relevant payment provider and to comply with that provider’s applicable terms.

A payment provider may independently:

  • authorise or reject a transaction;
  • process recurring payments;
  • manage payment methods;
  • apply fraud controls;
  • process certain refunds;
  • manage disputes;
  • retain information under its own legal obligations.

REJ.World is not responsible for a payment provider’s independent systems or decisions, except to the extent responsibility cannot lawfully be excluded.

10. GOOGLE PLAY AND ANDROID SUBSCRIPTIONS

Where Platinum is offered through the Android application, subscriptions may be processed through Google Play Billing.

In such cases:

  • payment is processed through the user’s Google Play account;
  • subscription management may be available through Google Play;
  • cancellation procedures may be governed by Google Play functionality;
  • refunds may also be subject to applicable Google policies and legal requirements.

The price displayed in Google Play may:

  • be shown in local currency;
  • include applicable taxes;
  • differ from the website price due to regional pricing, taxes, platform requirements or other lawful factors.

The terms presented at the point of purchase through Google Play form part of the relevant transaction.

11. APPLE AND iOS SUBSCRIPTIONS

Where Platinum is offered through an iOS application, subscriptions may be processed through Apple’s In-App Purchase system.

In such cases:

  • payment is processed through the user’s Apple account;
  • subscription management may be available through Apple;
  • cancellation procedures may be governed by Apple platform functionality;
  • refund requests may be subject to applicable Apple processes and legal requirements.

The price displayed through Apple may:

  • be shown in local currency;
  • include applicable taxes;
  • differ from the website price due to regional pricing, taxes, platform requirements or other lawful factors.

The terms presented at the point of purchase through Apple form part of the relevant transaction.

12. ACCESS AFTER PAYMENT

Where immediate access is offered, Platinum access normally begins after successful confirmation of payment or subscription entitlement.

Technical delays may occasionally occur due to:

  • payment verification;
  • platform processing;
  • network conditions;
  • account matching;
  • third-party service availability;
  • security checks.

If payment has been successfully completed but access is not activated within a reasonable period, contact:

support@rej.world

We may request reasonable information necessary to verify the transaction without requesting full payment card details.

13. CANCELLING AUTOMATIC RENEWAL

Users may cancel automatic renewal through the process applicable to the platform where the subscription was purchased.

This may include:

  • PayPal for relevant website subscriptions;
  • Google Play for Android subscriptions;
  • Apple for iOS subscriptions;
  • another clearly identified subscription management process.

Unless applicable law, the purchase terms or platform rules provide otherwise, cancellation of automatic renewal generally means that:

  • future renewal charges should stop after effective cancellation;
  • access may continue until the end of the already-paid subscription period;
  • cancellation does not necessarily generate a refund for the current paid period.

The exact effect of cancellation depends on:

  • applicable law;
  • purchase platform;
  • payment provider;
  • timing of cancellation;
  • mandatory consumer rights.

14. ACCOUNT DELETION IS DIFFERENT FROM SUBSCRIPTION CANCELLATION

Deleting a REJ.World account is not necessarily the same as cancelling a subscription.

Likewise:

Cancelling a subscription is not necessarily the same as deleting a REJ.World account or requesting deletion of personal data.

Users should treat these as separate actions.

A user who wishes to stop future recurring payments should use the applicable subscription cancellation process.

A user who wishes to delete an account should use available account deletion functionality or contact REJ.World where appropriate.

A user who wishes to exercise privacy rights should follow the procedures described in the REJ.World Privacy Policy.

Because payment providers may operate independently, deleting a REJ.World account may not automatically cancel an external recurring payment arrangement.

15. CANCELLATION, COOLING-OFF AND WITHDRAWAL RIGHTS

Consumer cancellation and withdrawal rights vary according to:

  • country or state of residence;
  • nature of the service;
  • purchase platform;
  • timing of access;
  • whether performance began immediately;
  • applicable mandatory law.

Nothing in these Terms removes a mandatory cancellation, cooling-off or withdrawal right.

15.1 United Kingdom and EEA Consumers

Consumers in the United Kingdom or EEA may have statutory cancellation or withdrawal rights for certain distance contracts.

The existence, duration and consequences of such rights may depend on:

  • whether the contract concerns a service, digital service or digital content;
  • whether supply or performance began immediately;
  • whether legally required consent or acknowledgement was obtained;
  • the extent to which the service was supplied;
  • applicable statutory exceptions.

Where a mandatory right applies, it prevails over any inconsistent provision of these Terms.

15.2 United States Consumers

Consumers in certain United States jurisdictions may have rights concerning:

  • automatic renewals;
  • recurring subscriptions;
  • renewal notices;
  • cancellation methods;
  • acknowledgements;
  • post-renewal rights.

Where applicable, mandatory federal or state law prevails.

16. REFUNDS

Except where:

  • required by applicable law;
  • required by binding platform rules;
  • expressly stated at the point of purchase;
  • otherwise agreed by SCRIPTEASE LTD.;

subscription fees are generally non-refundable once access has been granted.

However, this general policy does not exclude:

  • mandatory consumer rights;
  • statutory withdrawal rights;
  • rights concerning defective digital content or digital services;
  • legally required refunds;
  • rights arising from unauthorised transactions;
  • mandatory post-renewal rights;
  • remedies that cannot lawfully be excluded.

Refund requests may need to be directed to:

  • REJ.World;
  • PayPal;
  • Google Play;
  • Apple;

depending on the platform and circumstances.

Nothing in this section limits a right that cannot lawfully be limited.

17. NO FREE TRIAL

The current website Platinum subscription does not include a free trial.

If a free trial or promotional period is introduced in the future, the applicable terms will be disclosed before enrolment, including where relevant:

  • duration;
  • conversion to paid status;
  • price after the promotional period;
  • renewal terms;
  • cancellation method.

18. CHANGES TO PRICES

We may change subscription prices for future billing periods.

Where required, we will provide advance notice before a new price takes effect.

A price change will be handled in accordance with:

  • applicable law;
  • payment provider requirements;
  • app store rules;
  • the terms presented to the subscriber.

Where legally required, additional consent may be obtained.

A price change does not remove mandatory cancellation rights.

19. PODCASTS AND AUDIO CONTENT

REJ.World provides podcasts, interviews, discussions, programmes and other audio content.

Such content may be:

  • produced by REJ.World;
  • produced on behalf of REJ.World;
  • supplied by third parties with permission;
  • otherwise lawfully made available.

Content is provided for personal, non-commercial use unless expressly stated otherwise.

You must not, without appropriate permission:

  • redistribute content;
  • republish content;
  • sell content;
  • commercially exploit content;
  • upload premium content to another platform;
  • make unauthorised copies;
  • circumvent technical restrictions;
  • make content available to unauthorised third parties.

Mandatory rights and lawful exceptions under applicable copyright law remain unaffected.

20. LIVE AUDIO AND PROGRAMMING

REJ.World may provide live or scheduled audio programming.

Live services may include:

  • REJ.World-produced programmes;
  • authorised third-party content;
  • interviews;
  • discussions;
  • other audio programming.

Programming may change without prior notice.

We do not guarantee:

  • uninterrupted live transmission;
  • availability of every programme;
  • a fixed schedule;
  • permanent availability of archived content.

Live services may be interrupted or modified due to:

  • technical issues;
  • maintenance;
  • licensing considerations;
  • legal requirements;
  • security concerns;
  • provider outages;
  • events beyond reasonable control.

21. CONTENT AVAILABILITY

The availability of podcasts, Platinum content, live programming and other materials may change.

We may:

  • add content;
  • remove content;
  • replace content;
  • update content;
  • change programming;
  • discontinue particular features.

Reasons may include:

  • editorial decisions;
  • technical limitations;
  • expired permissions;
  • third-party requests;
  • legal concerns;
  • rights issues;
  • security concerns;
  • operational requirements.

Purchase of a subscription does not guarantee that every individual item of content will remain permanently available.

However, nothing in this section removes mandatory consumer remedies where a paid digital service fails to conform to applicable law or the contract.

22. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY

REJ.World services may contain:

  • text;
  • graphics;
  • logos;
  • software;
  • interface elements;
  • podcasts;
  • recordings;
  • programme concepts;

  • other protected content.

Rights in such materials may belong to:

  • SCRIPTEASE LTD.;

These Terms do not transfer ownership of intellectual property to users.

You receive only the limited rights necessary to use REJ.World in accordance with these Terms.

23. THIRD-PARTY RIGHTS AND TRADEMARKS

REJ.World does not claim ownership of third-party trademarks, music, recordings, photographs or other protected material merely because such material is referenced or discussed.

All third-party trademarks and rights remain the property of their respective owners.

Nothing in these Terms should be interpreted as claiming ownership of rights belonging to:

  • Elton John;
  • his representatives;
  • record labels;
  • publishers;
  • artists;
  • photographers;
  • broadcasters;
  • other third-party rights holders.

  • host;
  • store;
  • reproduce;
  • display;
  • technically format;

that comment as reasonably necessary to operate the relevant REJ.World feature.

This licence does not transfer ownership of your comment to SCRIPTEASE LTD.

To the extent permitted by law, the licence continues for as long as reasonably necessary to operate, archive or protect the relevant service and legal interests.

26. COMMENT MODERATION

We may moderate, restrict, hide or remove comments where reasonably considered necessary, including for:

  • violation of these Terms;
  • legal compliance;
  • protection of users;
  • spam prevention;
  • security;
  • protection of third-party rights;
  • maintenance of a constructive environment.

We are not required to publish every submitted comment.

Where applicable law imposes specific obligations concerning content moderation, notices or appeals, those obligations apply.

27. PROHIBITED CONDUCT

You must not:

  • use REJ.World unlawfully;
  • attempt unauthorised access;
  • interfere with service operation;
  • distribute malware;
  • scrape or extract data in violation of applicable law or rights;
  • circumvent subscription controls;
  • bypass access restrictions;
  • fraudulently obtain Platinum access;
  • share premium content without authorisation;
  • misuse another person’s account;
  • impersonate another person;
  • use automated systems in a manner that materially disrupts the service;

Immediate action may be taken where necessary to:

  • comply with law;
  • respond to serious abuse.

Nothing in this section removes mandatory consumer rights.

29. THIRD-PARTY SERVICES

REJ.World relies on or links to third-party services.

These may include services provided by:

  • payment processors;
  • app stores;
  • hosting providers;
  • podcast platforms;
  • streaming providers;
  • analytics providers;
  • infrastructure providers.

Third-party services operate under their own terms and policies.

We are not responsible for independent third-party acts, omissions or service decisions except to the extent responsibility cannot lawfully be excluded.

30. SERVICE AVAILABILITY

We aim to provide a reliable service but do not guarantee uninterrupted 24/7 availability.

REJ.World may be temporarily unavailable due to:

  • maintenance;
  • updates;
  • technical failures;
  • hosting outages;
  • streaming outages;
  • network conditions;
  • cybersecurity incidents;
  • third-party failures;
  • legal restrictions;
  • events beyond reasonable control.

We will take reasonable steps appropriate to the circumstances but cannot guarantee that every interruption will be prevented.

31. CHANGES TO THE SERVICE

We may modify REJ.World over time.

Changes may include:

  • new features;
  • removal of features;
  • interface changes;
  • technical changes;
  • content changes;
  • provider changes;
  • security updates.

For paid services, we will not rely on this clause to remove mandatory consumer rights.

Where a material change to a paid digital service requires notice or other action under applicable law, we will take the required steps.

32. DISCLAIMERS

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, REJ.World is provided on an “as available” basis.

We do not guarantee that:

  • every service will always be uninterrupted;
  • every item of content will remain permanently available;
  • every device will be compatible;
  • every third-party service will remain available;
  • all technical errors can be prevented.

However, nothing in these Terms excludes mandatory guarantees, statutory rights or remedies that cannot lawfully be excluded.

33. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY

Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits liability where exclusion or limitation is prohibited by law.

In particular, nothing is intended to exclude or limit liability for:

  • death or personal injury caused by negligence where such exclusion is unlawful;
  • fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation;
  • liability that cannot legally be excluded;
  • mandatory consumer rights.

Subject to applicable law, SCRIPTEASE LTD. is not responsible for losses that are:

  • not reasonably foreseeable;
  • caused solely by an independent third party outside our reasonable control;
  • caused by the user’s unlawful misuse of the service;
  • business losses suffered by a consumer using the service for personal purposes, where exclusion is lawful.

Any limitation applies only to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law.

34. CONSUMER RIGHTS

Nothing in these Terms affects mandatory consumer rights.

Depending on your location, you may have rights concerning:

  • digital content;
  • digital services;
  • conformity with contract;
  • refunds;
  • repairs or remedies;
  • withdrawal;
  • cancellation;
  • automatic renewal;
  • unfair contract terms;
  • misleading practices.

Where these Terms conflict with a mandatory legal right, the mandatory right prevails.

35. UNITED KINGDOM CONSUMERS

If you are a UK consumer, you may benefit from mandatory rights under applicable UK consumer law.

Nothing in these Terms is intended to exclude rights that cannot lawfully be excluded.

This may include rights concerning:

  • digital content;
  • digital services;
  • unfair terms;
  • distance contracts;
  • subscription contracts;
  • automatic renewal;
  • cancellation;
  • remedies.

Applicable rules may change over time, and mandatory rights in force at the relevant time will apply.

36. EUROPEAN UNION AND EEA CONSUMERS

If you are a consumer resident in the EU or EEA, you may benefit from mandatory protections under applicable EU and national consumer law.

These may include rights concerning:

  • pre-contract information;
  • distance contracts;
  • withdrawal;
  • digital content;
  • digital services;
  • conformity;
  • remedies;
  • unfair contract terms.

Nothing in these Terms deprives you of mandatory protections that apply under the law of your country of residence where such protections cannot lawfully be waived.

37. UNITED STATES CONSUMERS

If you are a United States consumer, federal and state laws may provide additional rights.

Depending on your state and the transaction, these may concern:

  • automatic renewal;
  • recurring billing;
  • clear disclosure of material terms;
  • affirmative consent;
  • cancellation methods;
  • renewal reminders;
  • consumer protection against deceptive practices.

Nothing in these Terms waives rights that cannot lawfully be waived.

Where a state law imposes mandatory requirements, those requirements apply to eligible consumers and covered transactions.

38. CALIFORNIA CONSUMERS

Where California law applies to an automatic renewal or continuous service arrangement, applicable mandatory requirements concerning:

  • clear disclosure;
  • affirmative consent;
  • acknowledgements;
  • cancellation;
  • renewal notices;
  • material changes;

will apply.

Nothing in these Terms is intended to reduce rights available under applicable California law.

39. PRIVACY

Use of REJ.World is also subject to the REJ.World Privacy Policy.

The Privacy Policy explains how personal information may be:

  • collected;
  • used;
  • disclosed;
  • retained;
  • protected.

Privacy requests should be directed to:

support@rej.world

40. CHANGES TO THESE TERMS

We may update these Terms to reflect:

  • changes to services;
  • changes to payment systems;
  • changes to app store requirements;
  • legal or regulatory developments;
  • security requirements;
  • operational changes.

Where changes are material, we may provide notice through:

  • the website;
  • the mobile application;
  • email where appropriate;
  • another reasonable method.

Changes will not retroactively remove mandatory rights.

Where applicable law requires:

  • advance notice;
  • consent;
  • a right to terminate;

we will follow those requirements.

41. GOVERNING LAW

These Terms are governed by the laws of England and Wales, subject to the protections described below.

If you are a consumer, this choice of law does not deprive you of mandatory protections available under the law of your country or state of residence where those protections cannot lawfully be excluded by contract.

42. DISPUTES AND JURISDICTION

We encourage users to contact us first so that concerns can be addressed informally.

Contact:

support@rej.world

Subject to mandatory consumer law, the courts of England and Wales may have jurisdiction over disputes relating to these Terms.

However, if you are a consumer, you may have the right to bring proceedings in another competent court, including courts available under mandatory law in your place of residence.

Nothing in these Terms requires a consumer to waive a right to a competent forum where such waiver would be unlawful.

43. NO MANDATORY ARBITRATION CLAUSE

These Terms do not currently require users to submit disputes to mandatory private arbitration.

They also do not currently contain a class-action waiver.

This is intentional unless and until SCRIPTEASE LTD. adopts a different lawful dispute-resolution framework through appropriately revised terms.

44. SEVERABILITY

If any provision of these Terms is found to be invalid, unlawful or unenforceable, the remaining provisions will continue to apply to the extent permitted by law.

Where appropriate, an invalid provision may be interpreted or limited to the minimum extent necessary to make it lawful and enforceable.

45. NO WAIVER

If SCRIPTEASE LTD. does not immediately enforce a provision of these Terms, that does not necessarily mean the right to enforce it later has been waived.

46. ENTIRE AGREEMENT

These Terms, together with:

  • the REJ.World Privacy Policy;
  • purchase terms presented at checkout;
  • applicable platform-specific terms;
  • any additional terms expressly incorporated into a specific service;

form the agreement governing the relevant use of REJ.World.

If specific purchase terms conflict with these general Terms, the more specific terms may govern the relevant transaction, subject to applicable law.
