This aerial will not be provided as part of Gibtelecom’s service and it is your responsibility to arrange this if you don’t already have one and want to benefit from additional channels. Only DVB-T antennas will work with the TV Set Top Box.
- c) Gibtelecom recommends that the main TV in the property is connected via a wired connection.

- iv) not remove or tamper with any of the labels or stickers on the box;
- v) allow Gibtelecom to access the box remotely and perform any diagnostics or install software;
- vi) keep the box in a cool, dry place with good airflow. The box should be located in a room between 0 and 40 degrees Celcius. This box does not have a built-in cooling fan and so you will need to keep the box uncovered and the entire top side free of obstacles to allow it to cool; and

By using the Set Top Box you are accepting the end user license agreement which you can view under: Tools > Help > Settings > Licensing & Copyright on the menu.
- Content
- a) Gibtelecom TV content (channels and/or apps) may, at Gibtelecom’s discretion, change from time to time without notice. This does not confer Gibtelecom TV customers any termination rights, including to early termination of the agreement or refunds.
- b) The Set Top Box will be provided to you offering a basic package of IPTV channels, which can be supplemented by free to air channels using a digital aerial. Additionally it integrates third party content or services e.g. Rakuten and Prime Video. Some of these third party content providers may require you to accept additional terms and conditions and pay additional fees. These fees are in addition to any monthly subscription fees you may part as part of your broadband and TV service plan or bundle. Gibtelecom will make it clear when contracting the service as to what inclusive content is available when you subscribe and what is available for purchase on demand. This content may change from time to time at Gibtelecom’s discretion and Gibtelecom will notify accordingly, however this does not give the right to early termination of the agreement.
- c) If you select and view any additional chargeable content, this will be paid directly to the content provider and will not be charged to your Gibtelecom bill. The subscription period and charges will be as set by the third party provider. You are advised to read all relevant details and terms and conditions before you purchase the content.
- d) Gibtelecom is not responsible for the loss of any content you may have recorded or have scheduled to record at any time, including when Gibtelecom updates the Set Top Box with new software.

If the box needs to be returned or repaired, Gibtelecom is not responsible for any content that is lost.
- e) Gibtelecom endeavours to provide high quality IP feeds for its linear channel offering. However the number and quality of channels provided to you over digital terrestrial aerials is dependent on a number of factors over which we have no control – it may depend on the quality of your aerial and signal strength in your area. We also cannot guarantee completeness or accuracy of the Electronic Programme Guide for channels obtained via aerial.
- f) The content provided through the Gibtelecom set top box may not be suitable for viewing or use by people of all ages. It is therefore your responsibility:
- to set up and maintain parental controls; and
- to ensure that any content viewed or used is suitable for those viewing or using it (including children).
The parental control PIN can be set during initial set up. It can be configured to block post post-watershed content for television and broadcast recordings, hide adult channels, lock TV programmes with guidance labels and lock specific apps. Please note that apps in the ‘App’ section are controlled by third party content providers who may provide their own parental controls and PINs.
- Functionality
- a) Multi-screen and fetch
The set top box allows you to view different content on up to five compatible devices at the same time, whether live or recorded (including your main television).
- b) Mobile app
Customers can access some of the linear content via the Gibtelecom TV mobile app. This app is restricted to your in-home Gibtelecom Wi-Fi network and Gibtelecom’s mobile data networks (3G and 4G). Customers will only be able to access the mobile app if they log in using a valid Gibtelecom TV subscriber ID and password. The number of mobile devices registered at any given time is capped to those contracted as part of the subscription

Roaming services are available by default on all Gibtelecom mobile plans. If you wish to disable roaming you can do this on your mobile device or request barring on all roaming services or barring on data roaming services by contacting Gibtelecom Customer Services.
DATA ROAMING LIMIT
Data roaming can be expensive as it is dependent on distant operator charges. When you roam, you will have an automatic £42 (the sterling equivalent of €50) limit on data usage while roaming per calendar month, but you can change this limit at any time to suit your data roaming needs by contacting Gibtelecom Customer Services in person, by email or over the phone. You will be advised when you reach 80% and 100% of this cap, and barred thereafter. In order to reactivate data roaming you can contact Gibtelecom Customer Services.
WHITELISTING
Customers can request that Gibtelecom remove the data roaming limit mentioned above - this is known as whitelisting. This request must come from the account holder or a person authorised on the Gibtelecom account. Doing so will mean that the customer is liable to pay any bills generated whilst roaming, which may be high. We recommend that instead of opting to 'whitelist' the number, you increase the data roaming limit to a larger cap but maintain the control on your data roaming spending.
ROAMING IN THE EEA
As from 1 June 2017 roaming usage within the EEA is included as part of your mobile plan allowances and bundles. Visit our 'Roam Like at Home' section for further details. Roaming usage outside of inclusive plans and bundles will be charged as per local off-net and out of bundle rates.
Note that Roam Like at Home is designed for Gibraltar residents who are on holiday, visiting relatives or taking business trips abroad. It is not designed for extended periods abroad or for permanent roaming.
DATA ROAMING QUALITY OF SERVICE
In order to manage traffic we may slow down the service when using data abroad. We may also slow down the service if you reach a level of data consumption which we deem to be excessive, network affecting, affecting the use of other customers or usage that is not in accordance with your terms of service. Audio and video streaming are available but the quality of the audio/video may be optimised for a mobile device.
Mobile data, at home or abroad, is not intended to be used for connection to devices such as modems, for the continuous streaming of multimedia content or for P2P or file sharing in such a way that adversely impacts the service to other Gibtel customers
GETTING IN TOUCH WHEN YOU’RE ABROAD.
On arrival to any country you'll get personalised pricing information on the call, SMS and data rates with the operator you are roaming with. You may choose to opt out of receiving these messages by contacting Gibtelecom Customer Services, but this is not recommended.
Should you need clarification or additional roaming support you can call Freephone +350 20052201 when roaming to speak to Gibtelecom's roaming support team.

On the 1st day of the following months, the full allowances will be available.
Should you terminate a plan mid-month, the same rules apply e.g. if you terminate the contract on the 15th you will be entitled to half of the allowances for the plan you contracted. If you have already exceeded half of the plan allowances any additional usage will be billed at out of bundle rates and added to the next monthly invoice.
Note that in both cases rental charges are also applied pro-rata as rentals are paid in advance.

i. Cracks on or damage to the phone case indicating that the phone has been dropped.
ii. Damage indicating that the phone has been exposed to liquid.
iii. LCD damage such that the phone screen has cracks or blue spots.

General
9. MyGibtelecom rewards are a prize-giving scheme to reward Gibtelecom broadband customers. Prizes are available from a range of local businesses. Prizes are awarded on a tiered scheme. The more a customer spends on their broadband plan, the higher their reward will potentially be. For each prize draw, there are three prizes on offer for this tiered scheme. The Prize is not transferable or exchangeable. No cash alternatives will be offered for the Prize. Gibtelecom reserves the right at any time to substitute the Prize for an alternative prize of similar value where circumstances beyond our control makes it necessary to do so. Further, we reserve the right to amend these terms and conditions (including altering the Prize) at any time without notice by updating these terms and conditions and publishing them on gibtele.com/terms-and-conditions. No communications will be entered into by Gibtelecom regarding this.

7.1 your failure to carry out any of your responsibilities under the Contract, or you carrying them out late, in which case you will pay Gibtelecom for any reasonable costs Gibtelecom incurs as a result of your failure;
7.2 anyone other than Gibtelecom Group, Gibtelecom’s Affiliates, subcontractors or suppliers doing something, or not doing something they need to do; or
7.3 restriction or prevention by Applicable Law, a court order, an application for interlocutory relief or injunction.
Payments
8 Paying what you owe Gibtelecom
8.1 You will pay and be responsible for the Charges, whether a Service is used by you or someone else. This includes all Charges resulting from unauthorised or fraudulent use.
8.2 Gibtelecom will invoice you, and you will pay Gibtelecom, in the currency stated within thirty (30) calendar days of the date of such invoice in cleared funds to the account specified in the invoice without any set-off, counterclaim or deduction.
8.3 Gibtelecom will work out the Charges based on details that Gibtelecom records or that are recorded for Gibtelecom.
8.4 Usage -based charges shall be invoiced monthly in arrears. Other one-off and recurring charges will be invoiced monthly at the beginning of the calendar month to which the charges relate.
8.5 Charges for Services provided for a partial month will be prorated based on the charges for a calendar month.
8.6 The Supplier reserves the right to charge interest on any invoiced amounts outstanding. Any interest will be charged at an annual rate of 2% above the base rate of the Bank of England. Without prejudice to any other provision of this Contract , if any undisputed invoice remains outstanding for more than a period of thirty (30) calendar days from the date when it became due, and provided that the Supplier has given the Customer written notice reminding the Customer of such outstanding payment obligation, the Supplier reserves the right, upon giving fourteen (14) calendar days’ prior written notice to Customer, to suspend the Services provided hereunder without liability to the Customer.
8.7 The Parties hereby agree that:
(a) all Charges and any amounts due under this Agreement from the Customer to the Supplier shall be paid in full without any set-off, counterclaim, deduction or withholding (other than any deduction or withholding of tax as required by law);
(b) if the Customer is or was required by law to make any deduction or withholding from any payment due hereunder to the Supplier, then, notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the gross amount payable by the Customer to the Supplier will be increased such that, after any such deduction or withholding for taxes, the net amount received by the Supplier will not be less than the amount that the Supplier would otherwise have received but for such deduction or withholding;
- Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Contract, the Customer hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that the Supplier shall be entitled (at its sole discretion) to increase the Charges to the Customer:
- pursuant to a Change Service Order [in instances where the scope of the Services, and therefore the corresponding Charges initially detailed in the Service Order have changed,] in accordance with Clause 4 (Changes to Service Orders);
- on the expiry of the Initial Term, by giving notice to the Customer prior to such expiry, taking into account factors including, but not limited to, whether the Customer intends to make a further term commitment and the length of any such commitment.
- once in any given twelve (12) month period as may be necessary to reflect the annual increase in RPI as published in the latest available General Index of Retail Prices Notification issued by Her Majesty’s Government of Gibraltar’s Statistics Office by giving the Customer thirty (30) calendar days’ notice of any increase under this clause, which increase shall take effect automatically on the expiry of such notice period; and
- at any time during the Service Term, with immediate effect upon written notice to the Customer, in the event that either of the following events materially and unavoidably increases the cost of the Supplier to deliver the Services:
- a change in Applicable Law resulting in a mandatory imposition upon the Supplier; or
- where through no fault of its own, the Supplier is required to pay increased costs to third parties for their services (including, but not limited to, licensor fees electricity/grid power flexible cost adjustment or supply costs);
- If there is an increase in charge to the Customer as referred to in Clause 4 and the increase is the equivalent of more than ten per cent (10%) of the then MRC, then the Customer may, by giving written notice to the Supplier, terminate the Services so affected without payment of any applicable termination charge. Any notice of termination given by the Customer under this clause must be delivered to the Supplier in writing within thirty (30) calendar days from the date when notice of the increase was given to the Customer.

10.9.1 get you the right to carry on using the Service; or
10.9.2 modify or replace the relevant parts of the Service so that using the Service no longer infringes someone else’s Intellectual Property Rights, as long as the performance of the relevant parts of the Service is not materially affected.
10.10 The indemnity under Clause 10.5 and the actions in Clause 10.9 are the only remedies you will have for Claims that your use of the Service infringes someone else’s Intellectual Property Rights.
11 Keeping things confidential
11.1 We will both keep all Confidential Information confidential and neither of us will disclose it, unless one of us needs to do that:
11.1.1 to meet our responsibilities or to receive any benefit under the Contract, and then only to our employees, agents, Affiliates, officers, directors, advisers and, for Gibtelecom only, Gibtelecom’s subcontractors and suppliers, who need to know; or
11.1.2 because Applicable Law, a government or regulatory authority, or court of competent jurisdiction says we have to and the party disclosing it will give the other as much notice as reasonably possible before any disclosure.

13.1.1 if Gibtelecom needs to do Maintenance;
13.1.2 if Gibtelecom is instructed or requested to do so by a regulatory or other competent authority or is otherwise compelled to do so under Applicable Law;
13.1.3 if Gibtelecom has reasonable and bona fide grounds to suspect fraud or misconduct in connection with the use of the Services;

13.1.5 to implement a change under Clause 4.2;
13.1.6 if you do not pay Gibtelecom on time and in the way described in Clause 8; and

14.2 If you cancel a Service Order in accordance with Clause 13.1, then:

15.3.2 with no advance Notice period.
16 Terminating the Contract when something has gone wrong

17.2 If the Force Majeure Event has ceased before any Notice to terminate is received by one of us, the right set out in Clause 19.1 will end and the Notice will have no effect.

If Something Goes Wrong
20 How far each of us can be held responsible
20.1 The Contract excludes, as far as the law allows, any warranties, conditions or other terms that might be implied by statute or common law.
20.2 Nothing in the Contract excludes or limits the liability of either of us for:
20.2.1 death or personal injury caused by either of us being negligent;
20.2.2 fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation; or
20.2.3 any other liability that cannot be excluded or limited under Applicable Law.
20.3 Other than for those matters set out in Clause 20.2, neither of us will be held liable, regardless of how that liability arose, under or in connection with the Contract, and whether in contract, tort (including negligence or breach of statutory duty), misrepresentation (whether innocent or negligent), restitution, or in any other way, for:

(g) any special, indirect or consequential loss or damage.
20.4 Other than for those matters set out in Clause 20.2 and Clause 20.5, in relation to each Service, the total liability of either of us, regardless of how that liability arose, and regardless of the number of claims, under or in connection with the Contract, and whether in contract, tort (including negligence or breach of statutory duty), misrepresentation (whether innocent or negligent), restitution, or in any other way, will be limited to the greater of:
20.4.1 £100,000; and
20.4.2 an amount equal to:
(a) where the first incident occurs in the first 12 months of the Contract, the Charges that were paid or payable by you, or would have been paid or payable by you had the incident not occurred, for the first 12 months from the Effective Date; or
(b) were the first incident occurs at any other time, the mean of the monthly Charges that were paid or payable by you, from the Effective Date to the date when the first incident occurred, multiplied by 12.
20.5 Your obligations to:
20.5.1 pay any Charges due under the Contract including any interest payable under Clause 8 and any taxes due in connection with the Charges, together with any interest, fines and penalties payable due to your failure to correctly withhold and pay taxes where applicable;

20.5.3 pay any Termination Charges,
are in addition to and will not be counted towards the limitations set out in Clause 19.4.
20.6 Regardless of what it may say elsewhere in the Contract, both of us will take reasonable steps to mitigate each of our losses, even where that loss occurs as a result of anything that may give rise to a Claim under an indemnity.
20.7 If either of us has agreed to indemnify the other under the terms of the Contract, that indemnity is only given as long as the party being indemnified:
20.7.1 tells the party giving the indemnity promptly about the Claim;
20.7.2 gives the party giving the indemnity complete control of the Claim straight away;
20.7.3 does not say anything publicly about the Claim, or do anything that harms the defence of it; and
20.7.4 does what it can to help the party giving the indemnity with the Claim.
20.8 If Gibtelecom fails to meet a Service Level and this means that you are entitled to Service Credits, the only remedy available to you for that failure will be to receive those Service Credits, except when Gibtelecom’s failure amounts to material breach of the Contract, in which case, Gibtelecom will take the value of any Service Credits given from any amount agreed as payable by Gibtelecom in accordance with Clause 22 or awarded by a court of competent jurisdiction.
20.9 Gibtelecom recommends that you obtain business continuity (or other) insurance that is appropriate for the nature of your business, just in case something goes wrong.
20.10 Provided Gibtelecom has complied with its obligation set out in Clause 4.1.6, Gibtelecom will not be held responsible for any loss or damage caused by unauthorised access to any part of the Gibtelecom Network.
21 Force Majeure Events
If there is a Force Majeure Event the party whose performance is affected by the Force Majeure Event will:
21.1 not be liable for failing to do something they should have done, or for not doing it completely or on time to the extent this is caused by the Force Majeure Event; and
21.2 get a reasonable amount of extra time to perform the obligation that is affected by the Force Majeure Event.

23.3 The Party requiring arbitration shall appoint an arbitrator in writing, inform the other Party about such appointment and call upon the other Party to appoint its arbitrator.

Everything Else

24.1 If one of us needs to give the other Notice, they will do it in writing, in English and:

24.1.3 send it by first class post, recorded delivery or courier.

25 Transferring to another party
25.1 Either of us may assign the benefit of the Contract to an Affiliate by giving the other Notice, but if either of us chooses to assign the benefit of the Contract to an entity that is not an Affiliate, they need to get the other’s permission in writing beforehand.
25.2 Gibtelecom may subcontract any of its responsibilities under the Contract to another entity, including to a Gibtelecom Affiliate, but if it does, it will still be responsible to you under the Contract.
25.3 If Gibtelecom subcontracts the performance of any of its rights or obligations to a Gibtelecom Affiliate as described in Clause 25.2, you will, once you receive Notice from Gibtelecom, deal directly with the Gibtelecom Affiliate for ordering, provisioning or maintaining the Services.
25.4 By giving you Notice, Gibtelecom can novate the Contract, a Service or an Order to a Gibtelecom Affiliate.

If either of us does not do, or delays doing, something that this Contract allows, they will not have waived their right to do it, unless the Contract says something different.
28 What happens if part of the Contract is illegal, invalid or unenforceable
28.1 If any court of competent jurisdiction finds that any part of the Contract is illegal, invalid or unenforceable, that part will be considered removed, but no other part of the Contract will be affected.
28.2 If any illegal, invalid or unenforceable part of the Contract would be legal, valid or enforceable if part of it were removed, we both will negotiate in good faith to change the Contract so it reflects what we both originally intended as much as possible.

31.1 The Contract sets out the whole agreement between both of us and replaces any previous communication between us.

31.3 By agreeing the Contract, each of us acknowledges they have not relied on any representation, warranty, collateral contract or other assurance (made negligently or innocently) except for the ones in the Contract. Each of us also waives all rights and legal remedies they might have had if it were not for this Clause 31.
