SUBSCRIPTIONS

Our app offers two levels of service: the free “Spark Subscription” and the more advanced “Ignite Subscription” which comes with additional features. The Ignite Subscription requires a subscription fee.

You are not obligated to become an Ignite Subscription user to access and use the app, as the Spark Subscription is available to everyone. However, please note that certain exclusive features, content, and resources are accessible only to Ignite Subscription users. Keep in mind that we reserve the right to modify or remove some features of the Spark Subscription without prior notice.

Regardless of whether you choose the Spark or Ignite Subscription, it’s important to understand that you are responsible for any associated charges and fees related to using the app. This includes costs for internet or mobile data usage, access to the Website and/or Mobile App, as well as any applicable taxes, service provider fees, and other charges.
