You acknowledge that use of the Service is at your own risk. We do not represent or endorse the accuracy or reliability of any member profile, advice, opinion, statement or other information displayed, uploaded or distributed through the service by the Company, our partners or any user of the Service or any other person or entity. You acknowledge that any reliance upon any such opinion, member profile, advice, statement or information shall be at your sole risk.

To the fullest extent allowed by applicable law, in no event will the Company, its officers, directors, employees, agents, affiliates, business partners, licensors or service providers be liable to you or any third  person or legal entity for indirect, incidental, special, punitive or consequential damages or injury arising out of the use or inability to use the Service or out of the breach of any warranty, or caused by any failure of performance, error, omission, interruption, deletion, defect, delay in operation or transmission, computer virus, communication line failure, theft or destruction or unauthorized access to and/or alteration of the PriveTalk app or PriveTalk’s website.

2.15. Your Interactions with Other Users

You are solely responsible for your interactions with other users. You understand that the Company is not responsible for conducting criminal background checks or screenings on its users. The Company also does not inquire into the backgrounds of all of its users and is not responsible to verify the statements of its users.  The photo verification and the other verification badges that are featured in PriveTalk for each user’s profile are not always accurate. When they are accurate they still do not prove or guarantee that the specific user is trustworthy and safe to meet in person or safe to communicate with, in any possible manner. The sole responsibility for chatting, communicating, meeting and dating with a person that uses PriveTalk belongs to the individuals involved, and thus the company has no liability on the consequences of their interactions. The company makes no representations or warranties as to the conduct of users or their compatibility with any current or future users.

In no event shall the Company be liable for any damages whatsoever, whether direct, indirect, general, special, compensatory, consequential, and/or incidental, arising out of or relating to the conduct of you or anyone else in connection with the use of the Service, including without limitation, bodily injury, emotional distress, and/or any other damages resulting from communications or meetings with other registered users of this Service or persons you meet through this Service. You agree to take reasonable precautions in all interactions with other members of the Service, particularly if you decide to meet offline or in person. Those precautions require but are not limited to that you have read the Dating Safety Guide and follow accurately all of the dating safety tips that can be found in this document. However, despite the level of precautions you take you understand and accept that we make no guarantees and have no responsibility, either express or implied, regarding your own safety for choosing to chat or to meet with individuals that you came in contact with initially through the Service.

2.16. Third Party Content

The Service may contain, and the Service or third parties may provide, advertisements and promotions offered by third parties and links to other websites or resources. You acknowledge and agree that the Company is not responsible for the availability of such external websites or resources, and does not endorse and is not responsible or liable for any content, information, statements, advertising, goods or services, or other materials on or available from such websites or resources. Your correspondence or business dealings with, or participation in promotions of, third parties found in or through the Service, including payment and delivery of related goods or services, and any other terms, conditions, warranties or representations associated with such dealings, are solely between you and such third party. You further acknowledge and agree that the Company shall not be responsible or liable, directly or indirectly, for any damage or loss caused or alleged to be caused by or in connection with the use of, or reliance upon, any such content, information, statements, advertising, goods or services or other materials available on or through any such website or resource.

2.17. Paid Service

2.17.1. General

To purchase any of PriveTalk’s virtual services and products that we offer for a fee (the “Paid Service”), you must be a registered user of the Service and comply with the Terms and Conditions and the general Agreement. We reserve the right to refuse or cancel orders or terminate accounts at any time in our sole discretion, for reasons including, but not limited to, violating the Agreement. You acknowledge that you are responsible for maintaining the security of, and restricting access to, your account and password, and you agree to accept responsibility for all purchases and other activities that occur under your account.

2.17.2. Payment

PriveTalk’s Paid Service may be available for purchase, from time to time, by various payment methods (“Payment Methods”). Those Payment Methods may include payment by credit card, by debit card, by certain mobile payment providers or by other third parties. Payment Methods also include purchases through your accounts with certain third parties, such as your Apple iTunes account or your Google Play account (a “Third Party Account”).

If you purchase any of the Paid Service, such as a PriveTalk subscription or PriveTalk(PT) Coins (as described below), you authorize us, our designated payment processors and our designated third parties to process your payment, charge your account, and store your information. You also agree to pay the applicable fees for the Paid Service (including without limitation periodic fees for ongoing subscriptions) as they become due plus all related taxes (including without limitation sales and use taxes, duties or other governmental taxes or fees), and to reimburse us for all collection costs and interest for any overdue amounts.

If you purchase any Paid Service through a Third Party Account, billing for these Paid Service will be processed and appear through your Third Party Account. Additionally, to reviewing PriveTalk’s Terms & Conditions, you should review the Third Party Account’s terms and conditions which govern your transactions with those third parties and which we do not have control on them.

All fees and charges are non-refundable and there are no refunds or credits for any partially used Paid Service (including partially used subscription periods) except (i) as expressly set forth in this Agreement, (ii) as otherwise required by applicable law and (iii) at SocioBright’s sole and absolute discretion. Fees for the Paid Service may be payable in advance, in arrears, per usage or as otherwise described when you initially purchase the Paid Service. All prices for Paid Service are subject to change without notice (except as otherwise described in this Section 2.17). If we do not receive payment from your Payment Method provider, you agree to directly pay all amounts due upon demand from us. You are also responsible for any applicable sales or use taxes, duties, or other governmental taxes or fees payable in connection with your purchase of any Paid Service in PriveTalk. If you do not pay such sales or other tax or fees on a transaction, you will be responsible for such taxes or fees in the event that they are later determined to be payable on such purchases, and we reserve the right to collect such taxes or other fees from you at any time. Your non-termination or continued use of the Paid Service reaffirms that we are authorized to charge your Payment Method.

If the total amount to be charged varies from the amount you authorized when purchasing any Paid Service (other than due to the imposition or change in the amount of taxes, including, without limitation to, sales and use taxes, duties or other governmental taxes or fees), we will provide notice of the amount to be charged and the date of the charge at least 10 days before the scheduled date of the transaction. If you do not cancel your Paid Service before the increased price goes into effect, you agree to pay the increased price for the Paid Service. You agree that PriveTalk may accumulate charges incurred and thus we will submit them to you as one or more aggregate charge during or at the end of each billing cycle. The Company will inform you of any additional charges that are accumulated.

You agree to provide current, complete and accurate billing information and agree to promptly update all such information (such as changes in billing address, credit card number or credit card expiration date) as necessary for the processing of all payments that are due to SocioBright ltd. You agree to promptly notify us if your Payment Method is cancelled (for example, due to loss or theft) or if you become aware of a potential breach of security related to your Payment Method. If you fail to provide any of the foregoing information, you acknowledge that your current Payment Method may continue to be charged for Paid Service and you remain responsible for all such charges.

2.17.3. Subscriptions and Premium Features

PriveTalk subscriptions plans (also known as “Royal User Plans”) are the paid subscription service of PriveTalk and a part of the Paid Service. Purchasing any of those Royal User Plans grants you a subscriber status (also known as “Royal User” status), and offers you a variety of premium features (also known as “Royal User Benefits”) that are available to you for as long as your subscription is still active.  To view the available premium features, you have to tap the “Be a Royal User” section at the main PriveTalk menu bar. To view the available subscription plans, while being at the “Be a Royal User” screen, tap the “Activate Now” button. Both the subscription plans and the premium features may change at any time, without notice, at our own discretion. The Company holds no liability to you or any representative of you for failure to deliver or for any changes in such subscription plans or premium features, unless otherwise stated in this Agreement.

If you pay for a subscription by credit or debit card (or other Payment Method identified on the Service) and you do not cancel your subscription prior to the end of the subscription term, your subscription will be automatically extended at the end of each term for successive renewal periods of the same duration as the subscription term originally selected (for example, unless you cancel, a one month subscription will automatically renew on a monthly basis and a six month subscription will automatically renew on a six month basis). Unless otherwise indicated in any applicable additional terms or communications we send to your registered email address, such renewal will be at the same subscription fee as when you first subscribed, plus any applicable taxes, unless we notify you at least 10 days prior to the end of your current term that the subscription fee will increase. You acknowledge and agree that your Payment Method will be automatically charged for such subscription fees, plus any applicable taxes, upon each such automatic renewal. You acknowledge that your subscription is subject to automatic renewals and you consent to and accept responsibility for all recurring charges to your credit or debit card (or other Payment Method, as applicable) based on this automatic renewal feature without further authorization from you and without further notice except as required by law. You further acknowledge that the amount of the recurring charge may change if the applicable tax rates change or if you are notified that there will be an increase in the applicable subscription fees.

If you purchased a subscription through a third party account (such as Google Play store or Apple iTunes), you will need to cancel your subscription through that third party and in accordance with that third party’s terms and conditions. If you cancel your subscription through either Google Play store or Apple iTunes, your subscription benefits will continue until the end of your then current subscription term, but your subscription will not be renewed after that term expires. You will not be entitled to a prorated refund of any portion of the subscription fees paid for the then current subscription term, except as required by applicable law.

2.17.4. PriveTalk Coins

In our sole discretion, we may offer you the opportunity to obtain and redeem PriveTalk Coins (also known as PT Coins), which is the virtual currency of PriveTalk. We may charge fees for the right to use PriveTalk Coins, or we may distribute the PriveTalk Coins without charge, in our sole discretion. We have no obligation to continue offering any feature or function through the Service, including any feature or function that enables the use or redemption of PriveTalk Coins.

You may purchase PriveTalk coins only through your personal PriveTalk account, and you should redeem/use those coins only with the same account through the Service. Any purchased PriveTalk Coin(s) is considered a part of the Paid Service. The PriveTalk Coins cannot be transferred to any other user or third party, cannot be redeemed for cash and are non-refundable except (i) as required by law or (ii) at our sole and absolute discretion. We may further restrict your ability to earn or redeem PriveTalk Coins for reasons including, but not limited to, violating the Agreement, for not filling certain promotional criteria, or on other factors, in our own and absolute discretion. Reasons that may prohibit you from earning or redeeming PriveTalk coins from promotional or other events may be certain promotional rules and restrictions, model of mobile phone, technical issues, promotional availability, or other.

If you deactivate your PriveTalk account, your ability to redeem PriveTalk Coins may be terminated, without any right to refund or any other compensation for you.

If we cancel or terminate access to your PriveTalk account for violating the Agreement, your right to use your PriveTalk Coins or any other part of the Service immediately ceases.

Further, we may suspend or otherwise limit your access to your PriveTalk Coins if we suspect, in our sole discretion, fraudulent, abusive or unlawful activity associated with your account. When we suspend or limit access to your PriveTalk Coins account balance, your right to use your PriveTalk Coins account balance immediately ceases.

We may limit your use of the PriveTalk Coins service by applying limits to: the number of PriveTalk Coins you may have credited to your PriveTalk Coins account balance at one time; the number of PriveTalk Coins you may redeem within a given time period (for example, one day); the number of promotional PriveTalk Coins you may obtain in a single event; and other features and uses determined by us in our sole discretion.

If we post PriveTalk Coins to your account for an activity that is subsequently voided or cancelled or that involves a returned item, then we will remove those PriveTalk Coins from your account. You must ensure that we properly post your PriveTalk Coins to your PriveTalk Coins account. If you believe that you have validly acquired PriveTalk Coins that we have not posted to your PriveTalk Coins account, you must contact us within fourteen days (14) days after the date you claimed to have acquired those PriveTalk Coins. We may require reasonable documentation to support your claim.

2.17.5. Virtual Gifts

In our sole discretion, we may offer you the opportunity to redeem PriveTalk Coins for the ability to send a certain Virtual Gift to another user, through the Service.  When you use(redeem) PriveTalk Coins you earn the right to send a Virtual Gift for one time to one user. If you wish to send the same gift again or send another gift, you have to use your PT coins again. The licence we grant you to send those Virtual Gifts is limited, non-transferable, and revocable. The length of time that you or your recipients will be able to see the Virtual Gifts you purchase will be determined by the expiration timer that is set on your message options.

Regardless of the use of the terms “purchase,” “buy,” “sell,” “order” or the like on the Service, you do not own any Virtual Gifts or any other part of the PriveTalk Service and acknowledge that the Virtual Gifts are a service of PriveTalk and that you have only a license to use the Virtual Gifts in accordance with the Terms. All use of the Virtual Gifts is for personal, non-commercial use only. We will use reasonable efforts to make Virtual Gifts you have purchased available for use within a reasonable period of time after purchase. If you violate the Terms or deactivate your PriveTalk account, the offering of Virtual Gifts, and your license to use any Virtual Gifts, may also be cancelled, without any right to compensation for you.

The existence of a particular Virtual Gift available for redemption with PriveTalk Coins at a given time is not a warrant that we will maintain or continue to make the particular Virtual Gift available in the future. We may revise, discontinue, or modify Virtual Gifts at any time without notification to you. We will have no liability of any kind if a product or service that you have ordered is unavailable. If necessary, we reserve the right to substitute items of equal or greater value when an item or service is unavailable or we may cancel your purchase.

2.17.6. Errors

While we attempt to be as precise as possible and eliminate errors associated with the Service, we do not guarantee that any product, service or description, photograph, pricing or other information is accurate, complete, reliable, current or error-free. In the event of an error, whether on the Service, in an order confirmation, in processing an order, in delivering a Virtual Gift or PriveTalk Coins or a Premium Feature or a Royal Subscription or other, we reserve the right to correct such error and revise your order accordingly if necessary (including charging the correct price) or to cancel the order and provide you with a merchandise or service credit (including issuing, at our option, PriveTalk Coins as described above), with a value at least equal to the amount charged to you. We reserve the right to determine and modify from time to time the exact nature of any such merchandise or service credit, including conversion into one or more different types of merchandise or service credits. Your sole remedy in the event of such error is to cancel your order and obtain a credit as set forth above. To request a credit, please use the “Contact Us” button after tapping the “About Us” icon that is located at the bottom right corner of your main app menu.  You release us from all liability and claims of loss resulting from any error that you do not report to us within fourteen (14) days after the error first occurs. If you do not tell us within this time, we will not be required to respond to your error correction request.

In the event that the Company decides to give you a refund, the Company shall have the right, in its sole and absolute discretion, to (1) return or refund all or some of the amount of your payment, (2) apply all or some of your payment amount to other similar Paid Service, (3) apply all or some of the amount of your payment to the purchase of PriveTalk coins and transferring it in your account or (4) apply your payment in any combination of the foregoing ways.

When we post changes to these Terms and Conditions, we will revise the “Last Revision Date” in section 2.21 at the bottom of this document.
