In order to test your ability to use the Service you will have a 30-day free trial period, as further described above under Section 4.

You acknowledge that the availability of the Service and in particular the streaming of Content may be affected by internet traffic congestion or by other network, ISP, electronic, computer or other communication problems or failures and that Elisa is not responsible for such failure.

You also understand that the Service is a film streaming service which consumes a lot of data and may use international connections. In order to avoid any extra or unpredictable charges, a fixed price internet connection is recommended for the use of the Service.

3.2 Links to other Websites or Services
Elisa may provide links to other websites or services for you to access, including Facebook through the EpicTV Facebook Application. You acknowledge that any access is at your sole discretion. Elisa does not review or endorse any of other websites or services and is not responsible in any way for such websites or services or for any damage, loss or offence caused or alleged to be caused by, or in connection with, the use of or reliance on such websites or services.

3.3 Cookies
In order to provide you with an easy-to-use service, Elisa will place a 'cookie' (a small text file) on any computer you use to access the Website.

By registering to the Service you have a free trial period of 30 days. Free trial is available only once and only for new registered users. In order to get the free trial you must register to the Service by following the instructions on the Website. The free trial entitles you to watch a maximum of ten (10) films and to see other Content in the Service.

When you register for the Service and start your free trial, your method of payment will be authorised for up to one (1) month of Service in order to verify your identity, and to protect Elisa from theft and fraud. Some banks or payment card companies may reflect this authorisation against your available balance or credit limit. No actual charges, however, will be made against the card if you cancel the Service prior to the end of the free trial.

The free trial period will begin on the date registration is completed and the account is successfully created, and ends after thirty (30) days. You may inform Elisa during the free trial that you want to be a fully registered user. In that case, monthly invoicing starts from the date Elisa has received such information and has given you full access to the Service and Content.

If you do not agree to the change, you may terminate the Service to end at the end of current invoicing period.
