Ahoy! Welcome to the Soul Refiner Terms and Conditions of Use (“Terms”). The Terms you see below are important because they:
Please read these Terms, our Privacy Policy and any other terms referenced in this document carefully. We hope you’re sitting comfortably and listening to some great music. Here we go…
Thanks for choosing Soul Refiner (“Soul Refiner,” “Soul Refiner,” “we,” “us,” “our”). Soul Refiner provides personalized services with social and interactive features for streaming video and other content as well as other products and services that may be developed from time to time. By signing up or otherwise using any of these Soul Refiner services, including all associated features and functionalities, websites and user interfaces, as well as all content and software applications associated with our services (collectively, the “Soul Refiner Service” or “Service”), or accessing any videos, audio or other content or material that is made available through the Service (the “Content”) you are entering into a binding contract with Soul Refiner LLC.
Your agreement with us includes these Terms and any additional terms that you agree to, as discussed in the Entire Agreement section below, other than terms with any third parties (collectively, the “Agreements”). The Agreements include terms regarding future changes to the Agreements, export controls, automatic renewals, limitations of liability, privacy, waiver of class actions, and resolution of disputes by arbitration instead of in court. If you wish to review the terms of the Agreements, the current effective version of the Agreements can be found on Soul Refiner’s website. You acknowledge that you have read and understood the Agreements, accept these Agreements, and agree to be bound by them. If you don’t agree with (or cannot comply with) the Agreements, then you may not use the Soul Refiner Service or access any Content.
In order to use the Soul Refiner Service and access any Content, you need to (1) be 18 years or older, or be 13 years or older and have your parent or guardian’s consent to the Agreements, (2) have the power to enter a binding contract with us and not be barred from doing so under any applicable laws, and (3) reside in the an approved region; contact support for more information. You also promise that any registration information that you submit to Soul Refiner is true, accurate, and complete, and you agree to keep it that way at all times.
Occasionally we may make changes to the Agreements. When we make material changes to the Agreements, we’ll provide you with notice as appropriate under the circumstances, e.g., by displaying a prominent notice within the Service or by sending you an email. In some cases, we will notify you in advance, and your continued use of the Service after the changes have been made will constitute your acceptance of the changes. Please therefore make sure you read any such notice carefully. If you do not wish to continue using the Service under the new version of the Agreements, you may terminate your account by contacting us.
Here’s some information about all the ways you can enjoy Soul Refiner.
You can find a description of our Service options on our website, and we will explain which Service options are available to you when you create a Soul Refiner account. The Soul Refiner Service options require payment before you can access them (“Paid Subscriptions”). We may also offer special promotional plans, memberships, or services, including offerings of third-party products and services in conjunction with or through the Soul Refiner Service. We are not responsible for the products and services provided by such third parties. We reserve the right to modify, terminate or otherwise amend our offered subscription plans and promotional offerings at any time in accordance with these Terms.
You may purchase a Paid Subscription directly from Soul Refiner either by paying a subscription fee in advance on a (1) monthly basis or a (2) yearly basis.
Soul Refiner may change the price for Subscriptions from time to time and will communicate any price changes to you in advance and, if applicable, how to accept those changes. Price changes will take effect at the start of the next subscription period following the date of the price change. Subject to applicable law, you accept the new price by continuing to use the Soul Refiner Service after the price change takes effect. If you do not agree with a price change, you have the right to reject the change by unsubscribing from the Subscription prior to the price change going into effect.
Service may be canceled at any time by you for any reason or no reason at all upon calling Soul Refiner. In order to cancel, you must call the Member Care team at Soul Refiner. Your account billing will continue and you will be held liable for payment until you receive direct communication from Soul Refiner, confirming the deactivation and cancellation of your account. Your payment to Soul Refiner will automatically renew at the end of the applicable subscription period, unless you cancel your Paid Subscription by calling Soul Refiner before the end of the then-current subscription period. The cancellation will take effect the day after the last day of the current subscription period, and your access to Soul Refiner will discontinue from that day. We do not provide refunds or credits for any partial subscription periods. First-time users who cancel within the first 14 days of service are eligible for a full refund of the entire amount billed during that first 14 days. To receive the refund, the user must request it by calling the Soul Refiner Member Care team. Soul Refiner reserves the right to cancel service for breach of this contract. Moreover, Soul Refiner, at any time, without advance notice, with or without cause, at its sole discretion, reserves the right to refuse, cancel, and/or discontinue service to any individual or organization.
Should you decide to downgrade your plan, the downgrade will take effect the day after the conclusion of the current billing cycle. From then you will be billed at the rate of the downgraded plan and have access to Soul Refiner in accordance with the new plan. Should you request a downgrade, but are using more user accounts or features than permitted in the downgraded plan, you will be notified to first deactivate those user accounts or features before attempting the downgrade.
If you upgrade your plan you will be prorated for the remaining prepaid amount on your original plan towards the price of your new plan. You will be charged the difference between the prorated amount and the remaining amount of your new plan for the billing cycle. The features of the new plan will be available to you upon upgrade.

The Agreements (and any non-contractual disputes/claims arising out of or in connection with them) are subject to the laws of the state of Florida, United States of America, without regard to choice or conflicts of law principles. Further, you and Soul Refiner agree to the state of Florida to resolve any dispute, claim, or controversy that relates to or arises in connection with the Agreements (and any non-contractual disputes/claims relating to or arising in connection with them) and is not subject to mandatory arbitration under Section 23.2.1.
This Arbitration Agreement applies to all users regardless of geographical region.
You and Soul Refiner agree that any dispute, claim, or controversy between you and Soul Refiner arising in connection with or relating in any way to these Agreements or to your relationship with Soul Refiner as a user of the Service (whether based in contract, tort, statute, fraud, misrepresentation, or any other legal theory, and whether the claims arise during or after the termination of the Agreements) will be determined by mandatory binding individual (not class) arbitration. You and Soul Refiner further agree that the arbitrator shall have the exclusive power to rule on his or her own jurisdiction, including any objections with respect to the existence, scope or validity of the Arbitration Agreement or to the arbitrability of any claim or counterclaim. Arbitration is more informal than a lawsuit in court. THERE IS NO JUDGE OR JURY IN ARBITRATION, AND COURT REVIEW OF AN ARBITRATION AWARD IS LIMITED. There may be more limited discovery than in court. The arbitrator must follow this agreement and can award the same damages and relief as a court (including attorney fees), except that the arbitrator may not award any relief, including declaratory or injunctive relief, benefiting anyone but the parties to the arbitration. This arbitration provision will survive termination of the Agreements.
Notwithstanding the clause above (23.2.1), you and Soul Refiner both agree that nothing in this Arbitration Agreement will be deemed to waive, preclude, or otherwise limit either of our rights, at any time, to (1) bring an individual action in a U.S. small claims court or (2) bring an individual action seeking only temporary or preliminary individualized injunctive relief in a court of law, pending a final ruling from the arbitrator. In addition, this Arbitration Agreement doesn’t stop you or us from bringing issues to the attention of federal, state, or local agencies. Such agencies can, if the law allows, seek relief against us on your behalf (or vice versa).
YOU AND Soul Refiner AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN YOUR OR ITS INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTION. Unless both you and Soul Refiner agree, no arbitrator or judge may consolidate more than one person’s claims or otherwise preside over any form of a representative or class proceeding. The arbitrator may award injunctive relief only in favor of the individual party seeking relief and only to the extent necessary to provide relief warranted by that party’s individual claim. If a court decides that applicable law precludes enforcement of any of this paragraph’s limitations as to a particular claim for relief, then that claim (and only that claim) must be severed from the arbitration and may be brought in court.
Either you or we may start arbitration proceedings. Any arbitration between you and Soul Refiner will take place under the Consumer Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) then in force (the “AAA Rules”), as modified by this Arbitration Agreement. You and Soul Refiner agree that the Federal Arbitration Act applies and governs the interpretation and enforcement of this provision (despite the choice of law provision above). The AAA Rules, as well as instructions on how to file an arbitration proceeding with the AAA, appear at adr.org, or you may call the AAA at 1-800-778-7879.
Any arbitration hearings will take place in Martin County, Florida, provided that if the claim is for $25,000 or less, you may choose whether the arbitration will be conducted (1) solely on the basis of documents submitted to the arbitrator; (2) through a non-appearance based telephonic hearing; or (3) by an in-person hearing in Martin County, Florida.
Regardless of the manner in which the arbitration is conducted, the arbitrator shall issue a reasoned written decision sufficient to explain the essential findings and conclusions on which the decision and award, if any, are based. The arbitrator may make rulings and resolve disputes as to the payment and reimbursement of fees or expenses at any time during the proceeding and upon request from either party made within 14 days of the arbitrator’s ruling on the merits.
A party who intends to seek arbitration must first send a written notice of the dispute to the other, by certified mail, Federal Express, UPS, or Express Mail (signature required), or in the event that we do not have a physical address on file for you, by electronic mail (‘Notice’). Soul Refiner's address for Notice is: Soul Refiner LLC, Attn: Legal Department, 2751 SE Monroe St, Stuart, Florida, 34997, USA. The Notice must (1) describe the nature and basis of the claim or dispute; and (2) set forth the specific relief sought (‘Demand’). We agree to use good faith efforts to resolve the claim directly, but if we do not reach an agreement to do so within 30 days after the Notice is received, you or Soul Refiner may commence an arbitration proceeding. During the arbitration, the amount of any settlement offer made by you or Soul Refiner shall not be disclosed to the arbitrator until after the arbitrator makes a final decision and award, if any. In the event our dispute is finally resolved through arbitration in your favor, and the arbitrator issues you an award that is greater than the value of Soul Refiner’s last written settlement offer, then Soul Refiner will instead pay you either the amount of the award or $1,000, whichever is greater. All documents and information disclosed in the course of the arbitration shall be kept strictly confidential by the recipient and shall not be used by the recipient for any purpose other than for purposes of the arbitration or the enforcement of the arbitrator’s decision and award and shall not be disclosed except in confidence to persons who have a need to know for such purposes or as required by applicable law.
If this Arbitration Agreement is invalidated in whole or in part, the parties agree that the exclusive jurisdiction and venue described in Section 23.1 shall govern any claim in court arising out of or related to the Agreements.
