+<h1>Terms Of Service<a class="headerlink" href="#terms-of-service" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h1>
+<p>Last Updated: 12.4.2019</p>
+<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>

-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

-<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 failure of hardware, software, and Internet connections; 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.
-</p>
-<p>You
-release us from all liability related to any losses, damages, or
-claims arising from:

-OVERVIEW
+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.
+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.

-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

+ <title>Terms Of Service</title>
+ <paragraph>Last Updated: 12.4.2019</paragraph>
+ <paragraph>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.</paragraph>
+ <section ids="overview" names="overview">
+ <title>Overview</title>
+ <paragraph>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.</paragraph>

+ </list_item>
+ <list_item>
+ <paragraph>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.</paragraph>
+ </list_item>
+ <list_item>
+ <paragraph>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.</paragraph>
+ </list_item>
+ <list_item>
+ <paragraph>You agree to not intentionally overwhelm our systems with requests and
+ follow responsible disclosure if you find security issues in our services.</paragraph>
+ </list_item>
+ <list_item>
+ <paragraph>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.</paragraph>
+ </list_item>
+ </bullet_list>

+ <paragraph>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

+ <paragraph>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

+ 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.</paragraph>

+ 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.</paragraph>
