Twitch may amend any of the terms of these Terms of Sale by posting the amended terms and updating the “Last Updated” date above. Please check these Terms of Sale periodically for those changes. Any modified terms will apply to any purchase or renewal of Subscription Services (as defined below) made after such changes are posted on the Twitch Services. Therefore, you should review these Terms of Sale prior to each purchase so you will understand the terms applicable to such transaction. If you do not agree to these Terms of Sale, do not make any purchases on the Twitch Services.
For residents of the European Union, the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, or Switzerland who are acting as a consumer (i.e., for a purpose which can be regarded as being outside your trade, craft, or profession) (“Consumer”), with regard to active recurring Subscription Services, Twitch will provide reasonable prior notice of changes to these Terms of Sale. To the extent permitted by applicable law, not canceling your Subscription Services before the next renewal of your Subscription Services will be deemed your consent to the modified terms that will take effect at the time of your next renewal. Where required by applicable law, Twitch will ask for your consent to the modified Terms.
To make a purchase on the Twitch Services, you must be a registered Twitch Services user and comply with these Terms of Sale and the Terms of Service. You acknowledge that you are responsible for maintaining the security of, and restricting access to your account and password, and you agree to accept responsibility for all purchases and other activities that occur under your account. Twitch sells its Ancillary Products and Services only to those users who can legally make purchases with a Payment Method (defined below) accepted by Twitch. If you are between the ages of 13 and the age of legal majority in your jurisdiction of residence, you may make purchases on the Twitch Services only with the permission of a parent or legal guardian who agrees to be bound by these Terms of Sale. Twitch reserves the right to refuse or cancel orders or terminate accounts at any time in its sole discretion.
Vous comprenez que le portefeuille Twitch répertorie vos modes de paiement disponibles, y compris toutes les cartes-cadeaux Twitch que vous avez utilisées. Votre portefeuille Twitch ne conserve aucun argent, mais il sert de mécanisme de suivi et d'accès à vos modes de paiement, y compris le suivi du solde de vos cartes-cadeaux Twitch.
We accept payment through major credit cards, certain debit cards, PayPal, and/or such other payment methods we may make available to you from time-to-time through the Twitch Services (“Payment Methods”). You are subject to all terms and conditions of the Payment Method you choose. By submitting an order through the Twitch Services, you represent and warrant that you are authorized to use the designated Payment Method and authorize Twitch, or its designated payment processor, to charge the Payment Method you specify for the purchase amount, including all taxes and fees. All payments are to be made in United States Dollars, except where other currencies are offered via the Payment Methods made available by Twitch or its affiliates.
You may save a Payment Method for future purchases, including automatic payments for Subscription Services. If you save a Payment Method, that Payment Method will automatically be used for future purchases of Ancillary Products and Services unless you elect to change it. In order to save a Payment Method, you must submit all required information on any forms presented to you. The information you provide must be current, complete, and accurate, and you must maintain it as such. We may require you to provide additional information as a condition of continued use of Ancillary Products or Services or to help us determine whether to permit you to continue using one or more aspects of the Twitch Services. When you save a Payment Method, Twitch may store information related to the Payment Method, such as its card number and expiration date and your name and billing address. You authorize us to confirm that your Payment Method is in good standing with its provider, including without limitation, by submitting a request for a payment authorization and/or a low-value credit and/or debit to the Payment Method, in accordance with network rules or other requirements applicable to the Payment Method. You also agree that Twitch may update your Payment Method information, including expiration date and card number, based on information received from your card issuer under certain account update programs created by payment networks. Twitch may reflect these changes in your saved Payment Method information to help prevent payment failure or service termination.
PLEASE NOTE: Our payment processing partners may request that you provide certain personal data (e.g., a valid government-issued ID, your legal name, address, and date of birth) for the purpose of making payment through their financial institutions and complying with applicable international, national, federal, state, and local laws and regulations. They may also communicate directly with you regarding any issues with a payment.
En cas de refus d'un paiement en ligne en raison de problèmes rencontrés avec votre Mode de paiement, nous pouvons suspendre ou annuler votre commande automatiquement. Il vous revient de résoudre tout problème que nous pourrions rencontrer au moment du traitement de votre achat. Si la transaction est refusée en ligne, veuillez contacter le service client sur notre centre d'assistance.
Twitch peut imposer des frais de transaction supplémentaires en fonction des transactions associées aux Services Twitch, y compris les frais de transaction appliqués auprès de tiers. Ces frais de transaction vous seront présentés avant le traitement de la transaction concernée.
Twitch may offer certain Ancillary Products and Services in connection with the Twitch Services on a subscription basis (“Subscription Services”) as disclosed to you when you subscribe to any Subscription Service. For Subscription Services that renew automatically, you agree that we are authorized to charge you for payment on a recurring basis prior to each renewal. You also agree that your Subscription Service will renew continuously for the agreed subscription time period until you cancel it. If you are signing up for a Subscription Service under a promotional offer, some additional terms may apply. These terms, if any, will be provided to you before you sign up.
If you purchase a Subscription Service, you hereby grant Twitch permission to automatically charge the subscription fee to your chosen Payment Method (which may be your saved Payment Method) at the beginning of each applicable payment period until you cancel the Subscription Service. Your access, or the gift recipient’s access, to the Subscription Services will not be established until Twitch has verified that the credit card or other payment information you provide Twitch for payment is accurate and that your Payment Method account is in good standing.
You further agree that Twitch may charge any other applicable fees for the Twitch Services or Ancillary Products and Services, if disclosed to you in connection with your purchase, to your Payment Method, including any early termination fee.
You are required to keep your billing information current, complete, and accurate (for example, if you move, be sure to update your billing address, and if you get a new credit/debit card, make sure you update the card number and/or expiration date) and notify Twitch if your selected Payment method is canceled (e.g., for loss or theft).
Twitch reserves the right to discontinue or modify any Subscription Services fee payment option. If we do so, we will provide notice of such discontinuance or modification by email or through the Twitch Services in advance of the next billing date.
To the extent permitted by applicable law, Twitch reserves the right to suspend or cancel your access to any Subscription Service without notice (or after providing reasonable notice where required by applicable law), upon rejection of any due charges, or if your Payment Method (or its agent or affiliate) causes the return of payments previously made to Twitch when you are liable for the charges. Any other requirements that may apply to our right to cancel your Subscription Service for your default in payment under applicable law shall remain unaffected by the foregoing sentences.
You may cancel your Subscription Service at any time by selecting the “Do Not Renew” option under your subscription settings in the relevant Twitch Services, or by utilizing any other cancellation method that may be available to you under applicable law. Twitch may cancel your Subscription Service by giving you notice by email or through the Twitch Services.
L'annulation de l'une ou l'autre des parties en vertu du paragraphe précédent prend effet à la fin de la période de paiement en cours et vos Services d'abonnement se poursuivront jusqu'à la fin la période concernée.
Twitch may periodically make changes to Subscription Services offers and pricing in your jurisdiction, including without limitation to recurring subscription fees, to reflect changes to our business, such as increased costs. When we do so, we will post the revised Subscription Services information on the Twitch Services. For active recurring Subscription Services, we will provide reasonable prior notice of such changes. Unless otherwise indicated and to the extent permitted by applicable law, any offer or price change will take effect at the start of the next subscription period following the date of the change. By continuing to use the Subscription Service after the offer or price change takes effect, you will have accepted the new offer or price. If you do not wish to accept such a change, you should cancel your Subscription Service before the change takes effect.
You may purchase a non-renewing Subscription Service to gift rewards or benefits that channel owners make available to subscribers to named Twitch users or to unnamed Twitch community member(s) (a “Gifted Subscription Service”). You may purchase these Gifted Subscription Services at tiered values in accordance with the level of rewards or benefits you wish to gift to the Twitch user or Twitch community. In the event that you make such a purchase, the Gifted Subscription Service (and the recipient’s ability to use it) will begin immediately upon completion of your payment in accordance with the process set out in Subscription Services - Automatic Payments.
Once your Gifted Subscription Service has been established, Twitch will notify your gift recipient(s) that you have purchased the Gifted Subscription Service for their benefit and enjoyment (unless you instruct Twitch to keep your identity anonymous), and that they may enjoy the benefit of the Gifted Subscription Service immediately, and for as long as the fixed-term of the Gifted Subscription Service lasts; provided that at all times during such term your gift recipient(s) have a valid Twitch account. Your Gifted Subscription Service will run from the time of your purchase to the expiry of the fixed-term for that Gifted Subscription Service, regardless of when or whether your gift recipient(s) receive(s) notification that the Gifted Subscription Service has become available. All use and enjoyment of the Gifted Subscription Service by your gift recipient(s) will terminate when your Gifted Subscription Service expires. If your gift recipient breaches Twitch’s Terms of Service applicable to them for their use of the Twitch Services following your gift, their use of the Twitch Services may be terminated in accordance with Twitch’s Terms of Service. Nothing in these Terms of Sale shall entitle any gift recipient(s) to any right of enforcement against Twitch.
The Ancillary Products and Services that Twitch may offer, on a promotional basis or for purchase, may include Bits (“Bits”), which are digital content (i.e., animated emoticons) that allow you to celebrate moments and express appreciation for specific broadcasters using the cheering feature (“Cheering”) on the Twitch Services. You may also use Bits in Extensions (as defined below) to obtain or experience other digital items or enhancements. The Ancillary Products and Services may also include:
Collectivement, les Bits, Récompenses et Jetons peuvent être appelés « Contenu numérique ».
Your use of Digital Content is subject to Twitch’s Terms of Service, including the Bits Acceptable Use Policy.
Digital Content has no monetary value (i.e., is not cash or equivalent), and does not constitute currency or property of any type. Digital Content cannot be sold or transferred to third parties, including other users, cannot be used outside the Twitch Services, and cannot be exchanged for cash or for any other goods or services. You have no property, proprietary, intellectual property, ownership, or monetary interest in promotional or purchased Digital Content, which remains Twitch Digital Content subject to the Terms of Service. Except as required by applicable law in your jurisdiction, Digital Content is non-refundable. You may not obtain a refund for Bits that are used or redeemed for Cheering, or in Extensions for digital items or experiences. Tokens that have been used or redeemed will not be returned. You may not purchase, sell, barter, or trade any Digital Content, or offer to purchase, sell, or trade any Digital Content (including for money or any other consideration or items of value whether inside or outside of the Twitch Services). Twitch and you recognize that any such attempted transfer will be null and void.
Although Twitch may share revenue generated from the sale of Digital Content with a broadcaster or an Extension developer receiving the Digital Content, subject to the agreement solely between Twitch and the broadcaster or developer as the case may be, Digital Content is not intended to be used as a means to provide compensation or financial support to the broadcaster or developer, and Twitch makes no assurances to any user that any broadcaster or developer receiving Digital Content will receive a financial benefit.
Twitch does not guarantee that Digital Content will be available at all times or at any given time. Twitch does not guarantee that we will continue to offer Digital Content for any particular length of time. Twitch may modify Digital Content at our sole discretion, and such modifications may make Digital Content more or less common, desirable, effective, or functional. Twitch may immediately suspend or terminate Digital Content for any or no reason, in our sole discretion, and without advance notice or liability. If Digital Content is discontinued by Twitch, you may have an amount of time deemed reasonable by Twitch in its sole discretion from the date that termination is announced to use your remaining Digital Content. Any purchased or accumulated Digital Content remaining in your account at the time of termination will be forfeited and no compensation will be provided.
Twitch may increase the number of Bits required to earn Rewards, withdraw any Reward, and restrict any Reward or Reward redemption at any time, even though such changes may affect the utility of Digital Content, or the ability to obtain certain Rewards. You should not rely upon the continued availability of any Reward or Reward level, category, or tier.

Twitch se réserve tous les droits, titres et intérêts liés au Contenu numérique et aux stocks de Contenu numérique, et tous les droits d’auteur, marques commerciales et autres droits de propriété intellectuelle qui y sont rattachés. Sauf exigence contraire de la législation en vigueur, tout stock de Contenu numérique inutilisé sera perdu au profit de Twitch en cas de résiliation de votre compte Twitch.

We and our affiliates may send you email and other communications related to the program and your benefits (regardless of any settings or preferences related to your Amazon or Twitch accounts).
Ancillary Products and Services that Twitch may offer include certain physical or digital goods offered via the Twitch Extensions program. This program allows broadcasters to embed interactive, custom content and applications, which are often provided by third-party developers, on their channel pages, through which physical items may be purchased or digital items may be obtained with Bits.
Twitch ne garantit pas que les développeurs d’Extensions continueront d’offrir des biens numériques ou physiques spécifiques, ou que les diffuseurs garderont actives des Extensions spécifiques sur les pages de leur chaîne pendant une durée définie. Les développeurs peuvent modifier les biens numériques vendus dans leurs Extensions, et Twitch peut modifier ses politiques relatives aux catégories d’articles pouvant être vendus en lien avec le programme Extensions Twitch. Avec le temps, les développeurs d’Extensions peuvent désapprouver ou modifier sensiblement leurs Extensions. Twitch ne garantit pas la disponibilité des Extensions. Celles-ci peuvent de temps à autre connaître des périodes d’indisponibilité. Twitch peut, à sa seule discrétion, suspendre ou retirer immédiatement des Extensions qui enfreignent nos conditions et politiques. Les situations susmentionnées peuvent survenir sans préavis ni responsabilité vis-à-vis du client, et rendre moins disponibles, désirables, efficaces ou fonctionnels les articles que vous avez achetés.
Vous reconnaissez et acceptez que le prix des biens vendus par l’entremise des Extensions Twitch ou le nombre de Bits requis pour obtenir des biens numériques par l’entremise des Extensions Twitch peut changer à tout moment sans préavis, pour une raison quelconque ou sans raison.
Twitch peut par la suite rendre les biens numériques que vous avez obtenus ou achetés utilisables uniquement avec les Services Twitch, et interdire leur utilisation avec des services ou des sites Web tiers.
Votre utilisation des biens numériques est soumise aux Conditions d'utilisation de Twitch, ainsi qu'à tout terme de contrat de licence applicable à l'utilisateur final défini par le développeur de l'Extension concernée. Vous pouvez obtenir davantage d'informations sur la ou les Extensions spécifiques fonctionnant sur une chaîne donnée, y compris sur les termes du contrat de licence applicable à l'utilisateur final, en cliquant sur les liens ou les icônes d'attribution que Twitch rendra disponibles sur la page de la chaîne, par exemple, dans le lecteur vidéo de Twitch ou en bas du volet d'une Extension.
Except as required by applicable law, any unused digital goods you obtain or purchase will be forfeited to Twitch upon termination of your Twitch account. Twitch reserves the right to deactivate a user from any Twitch Services for any reason or no reason. Once a user has been deactivated, any such goods accumulated by that user will be forfeited and may not be reinstated.
Si les biens numériques sont annulés pour le programme Extensions Twitch, vous pouvez bénéficier d’un délai jugé raisonnable par Twitch à sa seule discrétion, à compter de la date d’annonce de fin du programme, pour utiliser vos articles restants. Tout article acheté ou accumulé restant sur votre compte au moment de la suppression du programme sera perdu et aucune compensation ne sera fournie.
When you make a purchase on or receive a gift through the Twitch Services, including in third-party Extensions, you have immediate access to, and use of, the Ancillary Products and Services you have purchased. Accordingly, except as detailed in these Terms of Sale, to the extent permitted by applicable law, cancellations are not permitted after a purchase, and we do not offer any refunds, including, without limitation, fees for Subscription Services. At any time, and for any reason, we may provide a refund or other consideration to some or all of our users (“credits”). The amount and form of such credits, and the decision to provide them, are in our sole discretion. The provision of credits in one instance does not entitle you to credits in the future for similar instances, nor does it obligate us to provide credits in the future, under any circumstance. Twitch reserves the right to modify this refund policy at any time.
Unless otherwise specified in these Terms of Sale or required under the applicable law in your jurisdiction, games, in-game items, and other digital goods are not returnable after purchase, including those purchased in third-party Extensions. If you have problems with the download or installation of a game or with use of items purchased in Extensions, please contact Customer Support.
Cette politique de remboursement ne s'applique pas aux objets (que ce soit des jeux, objets en jeu ou d'autres biens numériques) obtenus à la suite de votre participation au programme Prime Gaming.

Twitch may implement regional pricing programs in order to help viewers support their favorite broadcasters. Twitch may determine your eligibility for regional pricing using information such as your IP address, payment method location, self-reported residence, and indicators of fraudulent activity (such as unusual transaction volume). You agree that you will not misrepresent your place of residence (for example, by using a VPN) to fraudulently qualify for these pricing programs.
Votre achat et la jouissance des Produits et services connexes peuvent être soumis à des dispositions légales supplémentaires de tierces parties.

Vous devez respecter de telles dispositions juridiques tierces, et nous vous encourageons à les lire.

Twitch and its suppliers and licensors continually upgrade and revise the Twitch Services to provide you with new Ancillary Products and Services. To the extent permitted by applicable law, Twitch may revise, discontinue, or modify Ancillary Products and Services at any time without prior notice to you. Twitch shall have no liability of any kind if an Ancillary Product or Service that has been ordered is unavailable. If necessary, Twitch reserves the right to cancel an order or substitute an Ancillary Product or Service of equal or greater value when a product, service, or content is unavailable.
Nous essayons d’être aussi précis que possible et de supprimer les erreurs sur les Services Twitch. Toutefois, nous ne garantissons pas que tous les Produits et services connexes ou la description, la photo, le prix ou d’autres informations d’un produit, service ou contenu sont exacts, complets, fiables, mis à jour ou ne contiennent aucune erreur. En cas d’erreur, que ce soit sur les Services Twitch, dans une confirmation de commande, dans le traitement d’une commande, dans la livraison d’un Produit ou service connexe, ou autre, nous nous réservons le droit de corriger cette erreur et de modifier votre commande en conséquence si nécessaire (y compris le prix correct facturé) ou de l’annuler et de rembourser tout montant débité. En outre, nous pouvons, au lieu d’un remboursement, conformément au présent paragraphe, choisir de vous fournir un crédit de service, d’une valeur égale au montant débité de votre mode de paiement. Twitch se réserve le droit de déterminer et de modifier à tout moment la nature exacte de tout crédit de service, y compris la conversion en un ou plusieurs différents types de crédits de produits et services connexes. Votre seul recours en cas d’erreur consiste à annuler votre commande et à obtenir un remboursement ou un crédit comme énoncé précédemment.
For residents of the European Union or the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, or Switzerland who are acting as a Consumer, there are warranty rights under applicable law in case of any non-conformity of digital content and services. Such rights shall remain unaffected by these Terms of Sale. In such case, Twitch offers no further implied or statutory warranties or conditions with regard to digital content and services, and explicitly disclaims all implied warranties and conditions to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law.
You acknowledge that we may change the content and character of active Subscription Services from time to time without causing its non-conformity, including when needed to comply with applicable law or regulation, or for justified commercial, security, or operational reasons, and including to make any improvements to your access to the Twitch Services.
