This document informs Users about the technologies that enable this Application to achieve the purposes described below. These technologies enable the Owner to access and store information (e.g., by using a Cookie) or to use resources (e.g., by running a script) on a User's device when the User interacts with this Application.

For simplicity, all of these technologies are defined as “Trackers” in this document, unless there is a reason to differentiate between them. For example, although Cookies can be used on both web and mobile browsers, it would be inaccurate to refer to Cookies in the context of mobile applications because they are browser-based trackers. Therefore, in this document, the term Cookies is only used when specifically referring to this specific type of Tracker.

Some of the purposes for which Trackers are used may require the User's consent, depending on applicable law. Where consent is given, it may be freely withdrawn at any time by following the instructions provided in this document.

This Application uses Trackers managed directly by the Owner (so-called “first-party Trackers”) and Trackers that enable services provided by a third party (so-called “third-party Trackers”). Unless otherwise specified herein, third-party providers can access the Trackers managed by themselves. The validity and expiration periods of Cookies and other similar Trackers may vary depending on the lifetime set by the Owner or the relevant provider. Some expire at the end of the User's browsing session. In addition to what is specified in the descriptions of each of the categories below, Users can find more specific and up-to-date information regarding the description of the lifetime and any other useful information—such as the presence of other Trackers—in the privacy policies of the respective third-party providers, linked to, or by contacting the Owner.

Such reimbursement shall be made without undue delay and, in any event, no later than 14 days from the day on which the Owner is informed of the User's decision to withdraw from the contract. Unless otherwise agreed with the User, reimbursements shall be made using the same means of payment as used to process the initial transaction. In any event, the User shall not incur any costs or fees as a result of such refunds.

… on the purchase of services

Where the User exercises the right of withdrawal after requesting that the service be performed before the expiry of the withdrawal period, the User shall pay the Owner a sum proportional to the part of the service already provided.

Such payment shall be calculated on the basis of a fee agreed upon by mutual agreement, and proportional to the portion of the service provided up to the time the User withdraws, compared to the full coverage of the contract.

However, any additional costs resulting from the choice of a particular delivery method other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by the Owner, will not be reimbursed.

Such reimbursement shall be made without undue delay and, in any event, no later than 14 days from the day on which the Owner is informed of the User’s decision to withdraw from the contract. Unless otherwise agreed with the User, reimbursements will be made using the same means of payment as used to process the initial transaction. In any event, the User shall not incur any costs or fees as a result of such reimbursement.

…ON THE PURCHASE OF SERVICES

Where a User exercises the right to cancel after having requested that the service be performed before the cancellation period expires, the User shall pay to the Owner an amount which is in proportion to the part of service provided.

These Terms shall not exclude, restrict, or modify any warranty, condition, right, or remedy that the User may have under the Competition and Consumer Act 2010 or any similar legislation of a state or territory, and which cannot be excluded, restricted, or modified (non-excludable right). To the extent permitted by law, our liability to the User, including liability for breach of a non-excludable right and liability not excluded from these Terms of Use, is limited, at the Owner's discretion, to either re-performance of the services or payment of the costs of obtaining those services again.

Users from the United States
Disclaimer of Warranty

This Application is provided strictly “as is” and “as available.” Use of the Service is at the User's own risk. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the Owner expressly disclaims all conditions, representations, and warranties, express, implied, statutory, or otherwise, including, without limitation, any implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, or non-infringement of third-party rights. No advice or information, whether oral or written, obtained by the User from the Owner or through the Service shall create any warranty not expressly stated herein.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Owner, its subsidiaries, affiliates, licensors, directors, officers, representatives, co-branding partners, partners, suppliers, and employees do not warrant that the content is accurate, reliable, or correct; that the Service will meet Users' needs; that the Service will be available at any given time or location, or that it will be provided on an uninterrupted or secure basis; that any defects or errors will be corrected; or that the Service is free of viruses or other harmful components. Any content downloaded or otherwise obtained through the use of the Service is downloaded at the Users' own risk, and they are solely responsible for any damage to their computer system or mobile device or loss of data resulting from such download or their use of the Service.

The Owner does not endorse or guarantee any products or services advertised or offered by third parties through the Service or any website or service accessed via a hyperlink, and assumes no responsibility for such products and services. Furthermore, the Owner will not participate in any transactions between Users and third-party providers of products or services, nor will it monitor such transactions in any way.

The Service may become inaccessible or may not function properly with Users' Internet browsers, mobile devices, or operating systems. The Owner shall not be held liable for any alleged or actual damages resulting from the content, operation, or use of this Service.

Federal law, certain states, and other jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion and limitations of certain implied warranties. The above exclusions may not apply to Users. This Agreement grants Users specific legal rights, and they may also have other rights that vary from state to state. The disclaimers and exclusions in this Agreement do not apply to the extent prohibited by applicable law.

Limitations of Liability

To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Owner and its subsidiaries, affiliates, directors, officers, representatives, co-branding partners, partners, suppliers, and employees shall not be liable for any indirect, punitive, consequential, special, incidental, or exemplary damages, including but not limited to damages for loss of profits, loss of customers, use, data, or other intangible losses arising out of the use of or inability to use the Service; and

The Owner and its subsidiaries, affiliates, directors, officers, representatives, co-branding partners, partners, suppliers, and employees shall not be liable for any claims, proceedings, liabilities, obligations, damages, losses, or costs in excess of the amount paid by the User to the Owner hereunder during the preceding 12 months or during the term of this Agreement between the Owner and the User, whichever is shorter.

This section on limitation of liability applies, to the fullest extent permitted by law in the relevant jurisdiction, whether the alleged liability is based on contract, tort, negligence, strict liability or any other basis, even if the User has been advised of the possibility of such damage.

Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or limitation of indirect or incidental damages, so the above limitations or exclusions may not apply to the User. These Terms grant specific legal rights to the User, who may also have other rights that vary from jurisdiction to jurisdiction. The disclaimers, exclusions, and limitations of liability provided in these Terms do not apply to the extent prohibited by applicable law.
