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> -<p lang="en" class="western" style="margin-bottom: 0.19in; line-height: 100%"> -<br/> -<br/> - -</p> -<h2>FEES</h2> -<p>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. -</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.

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. + +Copyrights and trademarks +------------------------- + +The Taler Wallet is released under the terms of the GNU General Public License +(GNU GPL).
