5.1.3 The term of the contract is twelve months, unless a different term has been contractually agreed (hereinafter “Regular Contract Term”). The contract shall be automatically extended for the term of the Regular Contract Term, unless terminated by a contracting party with a notice period of 30 days to the end of the respective contract. The termination does not require any justification and must be declared in writing to the other party. The right to extraordinary termination of both parties remains unaffected.

5.1.4 Tapper is entitled to irrevocably delete all data stored during the term of the contract after termination of the contract. At the request of the Customer, a data export can be made according to the specifications of Tapper.

5.1.5  Upon termination of the contract, the Customer is obligated to delete without request all reproductions of the provided software and the Tapper-code. If the Tapper-code is not or not completely removed from the Customer’s presences immediately after the end of the contract, Tapper is entitled to demand the fee agreed with the Customer for the duration and until the Tapper-code is completely removed from the Customer’s presences. The removal of the Tapper-code is to be regarded as incomplete, among other things, if data is still transmitted from the Customer’s presences to the Tapper servers.

5.2 The following section applies to all other customers:

5.2.1 The presentation of the service on the Internet does not constitute an offer, but only an invitation to submit an offer. Tapper can declare acceptance within 24 hours either by written order confirmation (e-mail is sufficient) or by providing the service to the customer. In the latter case, the customer waives the receipt of the declaration of acceptance. Only through this acceptance, the contract between the customer and Tapper is concluded. Tapper is not obliged to accept the offer.

5.2.2 The contract is concluded by booking a package under Tapper.ai. The Customer can select a package on the Tapper.ai website or in his already created Tapper account. The order of a package is considered as a binding offer of the customer to conclude a contract with costs for the selected Tapper package, which may be accepted by Tapper in accordance with clause 5.2.1. To order a package, it is necessary for the customer to enter his billing and payment information.

5.2.3 The term of the contract and, accordingly, the billing shall begin upon setup, i.e. the time at which the Tapper Code is provided. Tapper-Code means the code provided by Tapper, which is integrated into the Customer presence and carries out the data transfer to the Tapper servers.

5.2.4 Tapper offers monthly-billed and yearly-billed plans. The term of the contract is one month for the monthly billed plans and twelve month for the yearly billed plans (hereinafter “Regular Contract Term”), unless a different term has been contractually agreed. The contract shall be automatically extended for the term of the Regular Contract Term, unless terminated by a contracting party with a notice period of 3 weeks to the end of the respective contract. The termination does not require any justification and must be declared in writing to the other party. The right to extraordinary termination of both parties remains unaffected.

5.2.5 Tapper is entitled to irrevocably delete all data stored during the term of the contract and after termination of the contract.

5.2.6 Upon termination of the contract, the Customer is obligated to delete without request all reproductions of the provided software and the Tapper-code. If the Tapper-code is not or not completely removed from the Customer’s presences immediately after the end of the contract, Tapper is entitled to demand the fee agreed with the Customer for the duration and until the Tapper-code is completely removed from the Customer’s presences. The removal of the Tapper-code is to be regarded as incomplete, among other things, if data is still transmitted from the Customer’s presences to the Tapper servers.

7. FEES

7.1 The following section exclusively applies to Enterprise customers:

7.1.2 The fees for the services used by the Customer are determined by the signed contract offer or completed online contract offer. Unless otherwise stated, the prices are annual net prices in US Dollars and are additional to any applicable statutory sales tax.

7.1.2 The calculation of the base fee to be paid by the customer results from the contract offer or completed online contract offer. The basis for the calculation of the base fee is the sum of the protected visits per year on the customer presences, as described in the contract offer. At the time the contract is concluded, the expected number of protected visits is estimated. The Customer shall provide Tapper with the information necessary for calculating the base fee. Tapper reserves the right to check the Customer’s information on the protected visits and, in the event of deviations, to use the measured protected visits as the basis for calculating the base fee. The verification shall be carried out by counting the protected visits by using the Tapper service e.g. the free trial version of Tapper. The resulting base fee, for the entire contract year, is payable in advance. Payment must be made within 30 days of the invoice date.

7.1.3 At the end of the expired contract year, the base fee will be recalculated based on the actual number of protected vists in the expired contract year. There will be no repayment for overestimated calculations. The evaluation of the actual annual protected visits shall be made available no later than seven working days after the end of the respective billing period. Should this not be done, Tapper shall be entitled to use the data from the Tapper service as the basis for invoicing. In this context, the Customer may provide the data up to 30 days after invoicing and thus correct the calculation by the actual accesses. Individual contractual provisions shall take precedence over these.

7.1.4 The resulting base fee, for the entire contract year, is payable in advance.

7.1.5 Payment is due 30 days after the invoice date. The invoice amount must therefore be credited to the Tapper account within 30 days of the invoice date. Tapper is entitled to send the invoice in the form of an email or to upload the invoice into the respective Tapper account.

7.1.6  Fees that we are unable to recover through the payment method is deemed an overdue Fee. Failure to settle any overdue Fee within thirty (30) calendar days of its original due date will constitute a material breach of these Terms. Without derogating from any other rights and remedies available to us under applicable law, overdue Fees will accrue interest at the rate of three-quarters of one percent (0.75%) per month or part thereof, cumulative monthly on the linked capital from the due date until the date of actual payment. You will reimburse us for all legal costs and attorney fees we incur in the course of collecting your overdue Fees.

7.2 The following section applies to all other customers:

7.2.3 Upon the end of each subscription cycle, your subscription will be automatically renewed for successive subscription cycles, unless you notify us, by email to  support@tapper.ai, that you wish to terminate your subscription.

If you exceed the limits of your subscription package, your subscription will be automatically upgraded to a package suitable for your scope of use, as of the subsequent subscription cycle.

7.2.5. Fees are payable by Stripe, PayPal or major credit cards. We may, from time to time, and without specific notice to you, add additional payment methods to the then-current payment methods, or cease to use previously supported payment methods. By using one or more payment methods to pay the Fees, you represent and warrant that you are lawfully permitted to use the selected payment method in connection with the Service. We may require additional information from you before completing payment transactions.

7.2.6 You must keep the billing information you provided to us upon registration current, complete, and accurate, and notify us promptly in case of any change in your billing information.

By registering to the Service, you give your consent to purchasing a subscription to the Service, in accordance with the schemes, amounts and subscription cycle you selected upon registration, and to being billed for the applicable Fees, in addition to any applicable taxes (such as sales tax, value added tax or withholding tax), and any surcharges or commissions charged by the payment processor or through your payment method.

If you terminate your account and subscription, you are not entitled to any refund (pro-rata or otherwise), for any Fees you have paid for the terminated subscription. You are responsible for paying all Fees applicable to your subscription to the Service, whether or not you actively used, accessed or otherwise benefited from the Service.

7.2.9 Payment methods are processed and handled through relevant third-party payment processors, such as Stripe or PayPal. Payment methods are therefore subject not only to these Terms, but also the terms and conditions of these third parties pursuant to your contractual relations with them. You acknowledge that the third parties processing any of the payment methods may charge you commission on their end of the transaction. We are not responsible for such commission, which is strictly within your contractual relations with the relevant payment processor.

7.2.10  Fees that we are unable to charge through the payment method you provided is deemed an overdue Fee. Failure to settle any overdue Fee within ten (10) calendar days of its original due date will constitute a material breach of these Terms. Without derogating from any other rights and remedies available to us under applicable law, overdue Fees will accrue interest at the rate of three-quarters of one percent (0.75%) per month or part thereof, cumulative monthly on the linked capital from the due date until the date of actual payment. You will reimburse us for all legal costs and attorney fees we incur in the course of collecting your overdue Fees.
