PAYMENT AND REIMBURSEMENTS

Qymatix products can be tested for free during a trial period, without any commitment of a future purchase. This trial period varies from one type of product to another. If you want to continue using Qymatix after your trial period has expired, you must subscribe to the paying version at the rates and conditions that apply. A second free trial period is possible if Qymatix decided so.

A contractual relationship with the user comes into existence by written or electronic transmission of an order to Qymatix or by a telephonic agreement. Qymatix will charge you payments for any period of use before the start of it. A valid credit card or a money transfer could be required. Direct billing is also possible if decided by Qymatix. There is no account activation fee, but implementation costs may apply. Implementation costs are always agreed with you beforehand.

The minimum running time of a Qymatix contract is 12 months unless stated otherwise in our offer and your order confirmation. The fees for each performance period are always due in full for the entire term, unless explicitly agreed otherwise. Invoices are issued at the beginning of the term and are payable within ten days after receipt by the user.

Orders placed are binding and not transferable to other customers. If clients and users differ (for example, if an agency makes an order on behalf of a customer), both addresses must be named so that a different form of the invoice can be issued.

Taxes will be charged regarding your location for each payment and will appear on each bill. Customers based outside the European Union won’t be charged additional taxes unless future changes in the legislation of your country force Qymatix to do so. Customers inside the European Union but outside Germany will be charged German taxes unless they give us their intra-communitarian VAT number. You agree to provide Qymatix with complete and accurate billing information. You can always downgrade your type of subscription for the following invoicing period.

Unless agreed otherwise, technical support is only available by filling in a web support formulary here.

There are three classes of errors. Error Class 1: The error (or defect) prevents the use of Qymatix Service or essential parts of it. In the case of such a situation, Qymatix will try to fix it as soon as possible during working times, Monday to Friday from 9 am to 6 pm German Time, except national holidays.

Error Class 2: The error severely hinders the use of Qymatix, that is the use of the service is only possible with considerable effort, or it represents an unacceptable risk for the proper functioning of other of your systems. In the case of this kind of error, Qymatix will try to fix it within 24 hours from the time of the first report. If we cannot solve the issue in a reasonable period, then we will refund to you the pro-rata amount of fees paid applicable to the unremedied error. You cannot deduct this amount from your Subscription unless your claim is undisputed or has been confirmed by a final court judgment.

In the case of other errors (= error class 3: usage is not significantly affected), Qymatix will fix them within a reasonable period and remedy it if internal processes in Qymatix (for example, the next update of the Qymatix software) enable efficient elimination.

You understand that Qymatix uses third party vendors and hosting partners to provide the necessary software, hardware, networking, storage, and related technology required to run Qymatix and is not liable in any way for downtimes or technical issues of third-party, vendors or hosting partners.
