TR Talk APPLICATION Terms of Use
TR Talk § 1 (Purpose)
The terms of use of the TR Talk application govern the rights, obligations and other necessary matters between TR Talk (hereinafter the „Company") and users with regard to the use of the TR Talk application (push-to-talk service). By using or accessing TR Talk, you agree to these terms.
TR Talk § 2 (Definitions)
The definitions of the terms used in this agreement are set out below. „TR Talk communication service" refers to the TR Talk app and the associated services which „users" can use irrespective of the device accessed (whether wired or wireless devices, including PC and mobile phone).
„User" refers to members who have agreed to the „terms" with the „Company" and who access and use the „service" of the „Company".
„ID number" refers to a combination of letters and numbers which is created and selected automatically by the „system".
„Password" refers to a combination of letters or numbers chosen by the „user" to protect their privacy.
„Postings" refer to texts, photographs, videos and all kinds of files and links in the form of symbols, letters, speech, sound, image and video which have been posted by „users" via the „TR Talk service".
TR Talk § 3 (Announcement and amendment)
The TR Talk application publishes the terms on the first or second page of the service; they take effect for a user once that user agrees to them. The terms take full effect in relation to the service after the user has agreed to them. Following agreement and announcement, amendments also take effect for existing users.
The period of validity of the terms begins when a user applies and lasts until the day the user terminates their account. Exceptions apply to services whose period of validity is stated separately.
Agreement to the terms includes the user's responsibility to check for amendments by visiting the company website regularly.
The Company may amend the terms in accordance with the applicable laws.
Continued use of the service after the amendment has been announced in accordance with the preceding point means that the user accepts the amendment.
Users have the right to reject an amendment. The Company may not apply the amendment if the user has demonstrated a clear rejection within the notice period. In that case the user may terminate the account within 15 days of the express rejection. If the Company cannot apply the previous terms to the user, the Company may terminate the user's account. Continued use of the service after the effective date constitutes acceptance of the amendment by the user.
If a section is deemed unenforceable, the remaining terms continue to apply.
TR Talk § 4 (Interpretation)
The Company may lay down separate terms and operating guidelines for individual services (hereinafter „operating guidelines"). Where the relevant details conflict with the terms, the operating guideline takes precedence.
Matters not covered by the terms are subject to the operating guidelines, the applicable laws and commercial practice.
TR Talk § 5 (Agreement)
Those who wish to become users (hereinafter „applicants") signal their agreement to the terms when they apply for membership, and the Company accepts that application.
