Changes we can always make. We can always change a service:

  • to reflect changes in relevant laws and regulatory requirements; and
  • to make minor technical adjustments and improvements, for example to address a security threat. These are changes that do not affect your use of the service but if they do, we will notify you of how the service may be affected.

Changes we can only make if we give you notice and an option to terminate. We can also make the following types of change to the service or these terms, but if we do so we will notify you and you can then contact our Customer Service Team: info@famjam.world to end the contract before the change takes effect and receive a refund for any Services you have paid for in advance, but not received.Our charges may increase from time to time.

If the suspension lasts more than 10 days, you may choose to contact our Customer Service Team at info@famjam.world to end your subscription.
