+<h1>Terms Of Service - Last Updated: 12.4.2019</h1>
+
+<p>
+ Welcome! Taler Systems SA (“we,” “our,” or “us”) provides a payment service
+through our Internet presence (collectively the “Services”). Before using our
+Services, please read the Terms of Service (the “Terms” or the “Agreement”)
+carefully.
+</p>
+<h2>Overview</h2>
+<p>
+ This
+section provides a brief summary of the highlights of this Agreement.
+Please note that when you accept this Agreement, you are accepting
+all of the terms and conditions and not just this section. We and
+possibly other third parties provide Internet services which interact
+with the Taler Wallet’s self-hosted personal payment application.
+When using the Taler Wallet to interact with our Services, you are
+agreeing to our Terms, so please read carefully.
+</p>
+<p>Highlights:
+<ul>
+ <li>You
+ are responsible for keeping the data in your Taler Wallet at all
+ times under your control. Any losses arising from you not being in
+ control of your private information are your problem.
+ <li>We
+ will try to transfer funds we hold in escrow for our users to any
+ legal recipient to the best of our ability within the limitations of
+ the law and our implementation. However, the Services offered today
+ are highly experimental and the set of recipients of funds is
+ severely restricted.
+ <li>For
+ our Services, we may charge transaction fees. The specific fee
+ structure is provided based on the Taler protocol and should be
+ shown to you when you withdraw electronic coins using a Taler
+ Wallet. You agree and understand that the Taler protocol allows for
+ the fee structure to change.
+ <li>You
+ agree to not intentionally overwhelm our systems with requests and
+ follow responsible disclosure if you find security issues in our
+ services.
+ <li>We
+ cannot be held accountable for our Services not being available due
+ to circumstances beyond our control. If we modify or terminate our
+ services, we will try to give you the opportunity to recover your
+ funds. However, given the experimental state of the Services today,
+ this may not be possible. You are strongly advised to limit your use
+ of the Service to small-scale experiments expecting total loss of
+ all funds.
+</ul></p>
+<p>These
+terms outline approved uses of our Services. The Services and these
+Terms are still at an experimental stage. If you have any questions
+or comments related to this Agreement, please send us a message to
+legal@taler-systems.com. If you do not agree to this Agreement, you
+must not use our Services.
+</p>
+<h2>How you accept this policy</h2>
+<p>By
+sending funds to us (to top-up your Taler Wallet), you acknowledge
+that you have read, understood, and agreed to these Terms. We reserve
+the right to change these Terms at any time. If you disagree with the
+change, we may in the future offer you with an easy option to recover
+your unspent funds. However, in the current experimental period you
+acknowledge that this feature is not yet available, resulting in your
+funds being lost unless you accept the new Terms. If you continue to
+use our Services other than to recover your unspent funds, your
+continued use of our Services following any such change will signify
+your acceptance to be bound by the then current Terms. Please check
+the effective date above to determine if there have been any changes
+since you have last reviewed these Terms.</p>
+<h2>Services</h2>
+<p>We
+will try to transfer funds that we hold in escrow for our users to
+any legal recipient to the best of our ability and within the
+limitations of the law and our implementation. However, the Services
+offered today are highly experimental and the set of recipients of
+funds is severely restricted.</p>
+<p>The
+Taler Wallet can be loaded by exchanging fiat currencies against
+electronic coins. We are providing this exchange service. Once your
+Taler Wallet is loaded with electronic coins they can be spent for
+purchases if the seller is accepting Taler as a means of payment. We
+are not guaranteeing that any seller is accepting Taler at all or a
+particular seller.</p>
+<p>The
+seller or recipient of deposits of electronic coins must specify the
+target account, as per the design of the Taler protocol. They are
+responsible for following the protocol and specifying the correct
+bank account, and are solely liable for any losses that may arise
+from specifying the wrong account. We will allow the government to
+link wire transfers to the underlying contract hash. It is the
+responsibility of recipients to preserve the full contracts and to
+pay whatever taxes and charges may be applicable. Technical issues
+may lead to situations where we are unable to make transfers at all
+or lead to incorrect transfers that cannot be reversed. We will only
+refuse to execute transfers if the transfers are prohibited by a
+competent legal authority and we are ordered to do so.</p>

+<br/>
+
+</p>
+<h2>FEES</h2>
+<p>You
+agree to pay the fees for exchanges and withdrawals completed via the
+Taler Wallet (&quot;Fees&quot;) as defined by us, which we may change
+from time to time. With the exception of wire transfer fees, Taler
+transaction fees are set for any electronic coin at the time of
+withdrawal and fixed throughout the validity period of the respective
+electronic coin. Your wallet should obtain and display applicable
+fees when withdrawing funds. Fees for coins obtained as change may
+differ from the fees applicable to the original coin. Wire transfer
+fees that are independent from electronic coins may change annually.
+</p>
+<p>You
+authorize us to charge or deduct applicable fees owed in connection
+with deposits, exchanges and withdrawals following the rules of the
+Taler protocol.</p>
+<p>We
+reserve the right to provide different types of rewards to users
+either in the form of discount for our Services or in any other form
+at our discretion and without prior notice to you.</p>
+<h2>ELIGIBILITY</h2>
+<p>To
+be eligible to use our Services, you must be able to form legally
+binding contracts or have the permission of your legal guardian. By
+using our Services, you represent and warrant that you meet all
+eligibility requirements that we outline in these Terms.
+</p>
+<p>FINANCIAL SELF-RESPONSIBILITY</p>
+<p>You
+will be responsible for maintaining the availability, integrity and
+confidentiality of the data stored in your wallet. When you setup a
+Taler Wallet, you are strongly advised to follow the precautionary
+measures offered by the software to minimize the chances to losse
+access to or control over your Wallet data. We will not be liable for
+any loss or damage arising from your failure to comply with this
+paragraph.
+</p>
+<h2>COPYRIGHTS and TRADEMARKS</h2>
+<p>The
+Taler Wallet is released under the terms of the GNU General Public
+License (GNU GPL). You have the right to access, use, and share the
+Taler Wallet, in modified or unmodified form. However, the GPL is a
+strong copyleft license, which means that any derivative works must
+be distributed under the same license terms as the original software.
+If you have any questions, you should review the GNU GPL’s full
+terms and conditions at https://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-3.0.en.html.
+</p>
+<p>"Taler"
+itself is a trademark of Taler Systems SA. You are welcome to use the
+name in relation to processing payments using the Taler protocol,
+assuming your use is compatible with an official release from the GNU
+ Project that is not older than two years.
+</p>
+<h2>YOUR USE OF OUR SERVICES</h2>
+<p>When
+using our Services, you agree to not take any action that
+intentionally imposes an unreasonable load on our infrastructure. If
+you find security problems in our Services, you agree to first report
+them to <a href="mailto:security@taler-systems.com">security@taler-systems.com</a>
+and grant us the right to publish your report. We warrant that we
+will ourselves publicly disclose any issues reported within 3 months,
+and that we will not prosecute anyone reporting security issues if
+they did not exploit the issue beyond a proof-of-concept, and
+followed the above responsible disclosure practice.</p>
+<h2>LIMITATION OF LIABILITY &amp; DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTIES</h2>
+<p>You
+understand and agree that we have no control over, and no duty to
+take any action regarding: Failures, disruptions, errors, or delays
+in processing that you may experience while using our Services; The

+risk of malicious software being introduced or found in the software
+underlying the Taler Wallet; The risk that third parties may obtain
+unauthorized access to information stored within your Taler Wallet,
+including, but not limited to your Taler Wallet coins or backup
+encryption keys.

+concerning any Third Party Content contained in or accessed through
+ our Services.</li>

+ <ol>
+ <li>

+Terms Of Service - Last Updated: 12.4.2019
+
+Welcome! Taler Systems SA (“we,” “our,” or “us”) provides a payment service
+through our Internet presence (collectively the “Services”). Before using our
+Services, please read the Terms of Service (the “Terms” or the “Agreement”)
+carefully.
+
+OVERVIEW
+
+This section provides a brief summary of the highlights of this
+Agreement. Please note that when you accept this Agreement, you are accepting
+all of the terms and conditions and not just this section. We and possibly
+other third parties provide Internet services which interact with the Taler
+Wallet’s self-hosted personal payment application. When using the Taler Wallet
+to interact with our Services, you are agreeing to our Terms, so please read
+carefully.
+
+Highlights:
+ • You are responsible for keeping the data in your Taler Wallet at all times
+ under your control. Any losses arising from you not being in control of
+ your private information are your problem.
+ • We will try to transfer funds we hold in escrow for our users to any legal
+ recipient to the best of our ability within the limitations of the law and
+ our implementation. However, the Services offered today are highly
+ experimental and the set of recipients of funds is severely restricted.
+ • For our Services, we may charge transaction fees. The specific fee structure
+ is provided based on the Taler protocol and should be shown to you when you
+ withdraw electronic coins using a Taler Wallet. You agree and understand
+ that the Taler protocol allows for the fee structure to change.
+ • You agree to not intentionally overwhelm our systems with requests and
+ follow responsible disclosure if you find security issues in our services.
+ • We cannot be held accountable for our Services not being available due to
+ circumstances beyond our control. If we modify or terminate our services,
+ we will try to give you the opportunity to recover your funds. However,
+ given the experimental state of the Services today, this may not be
+ possible. You are strongly advised to limit your use of the Service
+ to small-scale experiments expecting total loss of all funds.
+
+These terms outline approved uses of our Services. The Services and these
+Terms are still at an experimental stage. If you have any questions or
+comments related to this Agreement, please send us a message to
+legal@taler-systems.com. If you do not agree to this Agreement, you must not
+use our Services.
+
+HOW YOU ACCEPT THIS POLICY
+
+By sending funds to us (to top-up your Taler Wallet), you acknowledge that you
+have read, understood, and agreed to these Terms. We reserve the right to
+change these Terms at any time. If you disagree with the change, we may in the
+future offer you with an easy option to recover your unspent funds. However,
+in the current experimental period you acknowledge that this feature is not
+yet available, resulting in your funds being lost unless you accept the new
+Terms. If you continue to use our Services other than to recover your unspent
+funds, your continued use of our Services following any such change will
+signify your acceptance to be bound by the then current Terms. Please check
+the effective date above to determine if there have been any changes since you
+have last reviewed these Terms.
+
+SERVICES
+
+We will try to transfer funds that we hold in escrow for our users to any
+legal recipient to the best of our ability and within the limitations of the
+law and our implementation. However, the Services offered today are highly
+experimental and the set of recipients of funds is severely restricted. The
+Taler Wallet can be loaded by exchanging fiat currencies against electronic
+coins. We are providing this exchange service. Once your Taler Wallet is
+loaded with electronic coins they can be spent for purchases if the seller is
+accepting Taler as a means of payment. We are not guaranteeing that any seller
+is accepting Taler at all or a particular seller. The seller or recipient of
+deposits of electronic coins must specify the target account, as per the
+design of the Taler protocol. They are responsible for following the protocol
+and specifying the correct bank account, and are solely liable for any losses
+that may arise from specifying the wrong account. We will allow the government
+to link wire transfers to the underlying contract hash. It is the
+responsibility of recipients to preserve the full contracts and to pay
+whatever taxes and charges may be applicable. Technical issues may lead to
+situations where we are unable to make transfers at all or lead to incorrect
+transfers that cannot be reversed. We will only refuse to execute transfers if
+the transfers are prohibited by a competent legal authority and we are ordered
+to do so.
+
+FEES
+
+You agree to pay the fees for exchanges and withdrawals completed via the
+Taler Wallet ("Fees") as defined by us, which we may change from time to
+time. With the exception of wire transfer fees, Taler transaction fees are set
+for any electronic coin at the time of withdrawal and fixed throughout the
+validity period of the respective electronic coin. Your wallet should obtain
+and display applicable fees when withdrawing funds. Fees for coins obtained as
+change may differ from the fees applicable to the original coin. Wire transfer
+fees that are independent from electronic coins may change annually. You
+authorize us to charge or deduct applicable fees owed in connection with
+deposits, exchanges and withdrawals following the rules of the Taler protocol.
+We reserve the right to provide different types of rewards to users either in
+the form of discount for our Services or in any other form at our discretion
+and without prior notice to you.
+
+ELIGIBILITY
+
+To be eligible to use our Services, you must be able to form legally binding
+contracts or have the permission of your legal guardian. By using our
+Services, you represent and warrant that you meet all eligibility requirements
+that we outline in these Terms.
+
+FINANCIAL SELF-RESPONSIBILITY
+
+You will be responsible for maintaining the availability, integrity and
+confidentiality of the data stored in your wallet. When you setup a Taler
+Wallet, you are strongly advised to follow the precautionary measures offered
+by the software to minimize the chances to losse access to or control over
+your Wallet data. We will not be liable for any loss or damage arising from
+your failure to comply with this paragraph.
