All rights reserved. Fermax hereby grants you an international, non-exclusive, royalty-free, revocable license to use the App for your business and personal use in accordance with these Terms and Conditions.

8.General Conditions of Use

These Terms and Conditions constitute the entire agreement between you and Fermax regarding the use of the App. The App is made available to you free of charge for your personal use and may not be used for any commercial purpose, or for any unlawful or unauthorised purpose.

You agree that the terms of the agreement with your respective mobile network provider will continue to apply when you use the App. Therefore, the mobile network provider may charge you for access to network connection services during the connection when accessing the App or any other third-party charges that may arise. You assume responsibility for such charges if they arise.

Fermax reserves the right to modify or revoke the App, as well as the power to revise, modify or update these Terms and Conditions at any time, in which case it will duly inform Users of such change so that they can accept the new terms and conditions.

 

9.Code of Conduct

When using the App you must comply with all local regulations of your country of residence, any other applicable international laws and these Terms and Conditions.

In particular, and without being exhaustive, it does not accept:

1. Using the App illegitimately or in a way that encourages illegal activity, including, but not limited to, copyright infringement.
2. Attempting to gain unauthorised access to the App or any networks, servers, or computer systems connected to the App.
3. Modifying, adapting, translating or reverse engineering any part of the App, or reformatting or framing any part of the pages comprising the App, except to the extent expressly permitted by these Terms and Conditions or applicable law.
4. Allowing third parties on your behalf to: i) make and distribute copies of the App; ii) attempt to copy, reproduce, alter, modify, reverse engineer, disassemble, decompile, transfer, exchange, or translate the App; or iii) create derivative works of any kind from the App.

10.Quality of Service

The quality of the Meet Me service by Fermax may depend on:

1. The model of smartphone or tablet which is being used for the application.
2. The quality of the internet signal received by both the visitor's call unit (the call panel) and the user's smartphone or tablet.
3. The type of internet access contract in the apartment building, home or business.
4. The type of data contract for your smartphone.
5. Other services outside the Meet system, such as push notification servers from Apple, Google, and others.

The remote entrance door opening function from the MEET ME by Fermax app depends on many factors (power supply from the outdoor panel, Internet connection in the apartment, smartphone coverage, etc.) and is therefore offered alongside the physical key for the user's convenience, but in no case as the only method to replace it.

The service requires Google Play Services to function properly as it is based on push notifications (some recent Huawei mobile handsets may be incompatible).

Check the internet service requirements with your installer to ensure the service is compatible.

The Fermax group will not assume any responsibility for the unavailability of the App, nor for any difficulty or impossibility of downloading or accessing content, or any other failure of the communication system that may result from reasons beyond the control of Fermax.

In any event, Fermax reserves the right to suspend or cease providing any service related to the App, with or without notice, and will not be liable to you if you choose to do so.

Fermax shall respond as follows:

·       Severity 1 (Low priority): The issue produces an inconvenient situation in which a secondary functionality is not working as expected or is not working at all, but the key functionality of the service is working, so the user suffers little or has no significant impact.

RESPONSE: FERMAX will make best efforts possible to resolve Severity 1 problems in the next maintenance release (normally once a year).

RESPONSE: FERMAX will provide a response by a qualified member of its Technical Support staff to begin to diagnose and to correct a Severity 2 problem as soon as reasonably possible, but in any event a response via email will be provided within the next three business days (72h). FERMAX will make best efforts possible to resolve Severity 2 problems within the next quarter.

RESPONSE: FERMAX will provide a response by a qualified member of its staff to begin to diagnose and to correct a Severity 3 problem as soon as reasonably possible, but in any event a response via email will be provided within the next twenty four (24) working hours. FERMAX will continue to provide best efforts to resolve Severity 3 problems in less than two (2) business days.

Fermax will not be liable for downtime and failure of Service in the event of network error, third party hosting infrastructure, obsolete versions of mobile devices or Android /iOS systems, external services failure (Azure, Amazon, Google Firebase, Apple Push Notification Service,…), cable or wireless connection error, or any other possible events, which are beyond the control of Fermax.

Fermax will not assume any responsibility for the unavailability of the Service or SLA failure.
