These terms and conditions as amended by us from time to time ("Conditions") apply to and govern the purchase of any event ("Event") shown on a pay-per-view basis on Sky Box Office. We are Sky Subscribers Services Limited ("SSSL") and we are acting as agent for Sky UK Limited ("Sky"). References to "Sky", "we" or "us" in the Conditions shall be read as references to Sky. You can contact us at Sky Business Division, PO Box 1805, Livingston, West Lothian, EH54 0BR.
1. Event
1.1 To purchase an Event, you must be a current subscriber under a Sky Business Digital Commercial Agreement ("Agreement"). Subject to these Conditions, we will supply to you any Event that you order and you are permitted to receive it via your Sky Box and Viewing Card.
1.2 If the Event is made up of a number of events, we can change the events package. We may change the time at which any Event is shown, and if so we will advertise the changed time on air. We can cancel or withdraw any Event, in which case you will not be charged for it.
1.3 Sky may refuse your order for any Event in its reasonable discretion.
1.4 Sky may terminate the contract in respect of any Event (after Sky has accepted your order) if at any time (i) you have not made any payment which is due to Sky; or (ii) you have broken any of these Conditions; or (iii) you have broken any of the terms and conditions of your Agreement.
1.5 Delays in validating your Viewing Card may arise if bookings are made within five hours of an Event start time.
1.6 Purchase of and payment for the Event entitles you to receive only the Event on these Conditions and no other event, film or programme (whether offered on Sky Box Office or otherwise).
2. Payments
2.1 Payment for the Event will be payable by you by way of the same payment method as Subscription Payments under your Agreement (and you consent to all such payments being charged under your payment instruction) or, if Sky elects to permit this, by one-off credit card payment.
2.2 We may from time to time assess your credit standing using credit scoring and may use information from outside agencies for this. Sky will apply reasonable practices for administering your account based on the result of that scoring.
2.3 You may cancel an order for an Event not less than five hours before the start time of the Event. Once ordered, you are liable to pay for any Event (unless such Event is cancelled in accordance with these Conditions) irrespective of whether you watch any or all of such Event.

4.3 Sky may prevent the copying (for example by video) of any Event. This may be by including signals in the broadcast of an Event, which prevent copying of that Event. Sky may also disable or alter remotely certain functions of your Sky Box so as to prevent you copying an Event and Sky may prevent you from receiving Events if your Sky Box allows copying of Events which Sky is bound by contract to prevent.
