PROCEDURE FOR CONCLUDING THE AGREEMENT
Before registering and obtaining access to its personal account, Party 2 is obliged to familiarise itself with the text of this Offer published at (https://refresh.tj/agreement).
To use the services, Party 2 is obliged to complete registration for access to the personal account at https://app.refresh.tj. By registering on the platform, Party 2 gives Party 1 its consent to the processing, collection and storage of its personal data.
Party 2 independently creates the password for access to its personal account. Party 1, in turn, is entitled to set requirements for the creation of Party 2's password (password length, use of symbols, and so on).
Party 2 agrees that the use of a login (the email address and telephone number provided at registration) and a password is sufficient for identification and access to the personal account. The use of the login and password entitles Party 2 to carry out certain operations on the platform, and this is equivalent to Party 2's handwritten signature. Party 2 bears full responsibility for the actions of any person who concludes transactions and carries out operations in the personal account on its behalf.
Party 2 is obliged to take appropriate measures on its own to ensure the security of the personal account and to prevent unauthorised access to it by third parties. In the event of unlawful access to the personal account by third parties, Party 2 is obliged to cease using it and to change the login details (login or password) for the personal account.
Registration of Party 2 on the Refresh platform confirms that Party 2 has fully accepted the terms of this Offer.
Activation of the personal account confirms the conclusion of this Agreement between Party 1 and Party 2.
The Parties warrant that they have full legal capacity and capacity to act for the conclusion and performance of this Agreement.
When Party 2 uses the personal account, the use of any software of which Party 1 is not the author or developer is not permitted without agreement with Party 1. In the event of non-compliance with this requirement, Party 1 is entitled to terminate the Agreement with Party 2 immediately in the manner established by clause 12.4 of this Agreement, or to restrict Party 2's access to the personal account in whole or in part.
TARIFFS
Party 1 is entitled to offer one or more Tariffs for the use of the Platform.
The terms and characteristics of each Tariff are determined separately, including:
- the cost of the Tariff
- the set of available functions and services
- limitations on use
- the period of validity
- special conditions, where these exist
Current information on Tariffs, cost, term, functions, limits and other conditions of their application is placed in one or more of the following sources:
- the mobile application of the Platform
- the website — refresh.tj
The description and conditions of a Tariff presented to Party 2 before a purchase is made and confirmed by it are deemed an integral part of the contractual relations between Party 1 and Party 2 for the relevant period of use.
Party 2 selects a Tariff independently, taking into account its cost, functions, limitations, period of validity and other conditions.
If a particular function, capability or service is not included in the Tariff selected by Party 2, Party 1 is not obliged to provide it free of charge or outside the conditions of that Tariff. Access to such a function, capability or service may require additional payment or a move to the corresponding Tariff.
Where Party 2 selects and purchases another Tariff before the expiry of the current Tariff, such an action, unless the Agreement provides otherwise, is deemed a new order for services.
The amount corresponding to the unused part of the previous Tariff is not automatically carried over to the account of the new Tariff, deducted from its cost or refunded to Party 2, except where:
- Party 1 has expressly provided otherwise on the Platform
- the legislation of the Republic of Tajikistan establishes otherwise
To activate a new Tariff, Party 2 is obliged to pay its cost in accordance with the applicable conditions of that Tariff, unless a special offer, promotion or other conditions established by Party 1 provide otherwise.
TRIAL PERIOD
Party 1 may provide Party 2 with a trial period of service of 7 (seven) calendar days free of charge.
Unless the Platform or the conditions of the relevant offer provide otherwise, the trial period:
- is provided free of charge
- is available to Party 2 only once
- begins from the moment of its activation by Party 2
- ends automatically upon the expiry of 7 (seven) calendar days
The end of the trial period does not in itself result in the activation of a paid Subscription or the charging of funds to Party 2, except where Party 2 has previously given separate, clear and informed consent to automatic renewal or transition to paid service.
If, after the end of the trial period, Party 2 does not select and pay for a paid Tariff, Party 1 is entitled to restrict Party 2's access to paid functions and services, or to place the account in an inactive state or a state with limited functions.
COST OF SERVICES AND PAYMENT PROCEDURE
The cost of services and the corresponding Tariffs is presented to Party 2 before an order or payment is made, through the mobile application and the website refresh.tj.
Unless the conditions of the Tariff or the relevant offer provide otherwise, payment is made in the form of prepayment for the billing period selected by Party 2.
Payment may be made using the payment instruments available on the Platform at the moment the operation is carried out, including by means of:
- a bank card
- an electronic wallet or another payment instrument of a lawful payment service provider
- other lawful means of payment supported by the Platform
Where Party 2 links a payment instrument, including a bank card, for the purpose of making subsequent payments, the procedure for the storage and processing of payment data is determined by the technical mechanism of the payment service provider and the requirements of applicable legislation.
Party 1 does not store payment instrument data of a heightened level of confidentiality, including the CVV/CVC of a bank card, except where such processing follows directly from the actual technical model of the Platform and is carried out in full compliance with the requirements of legislation, security standards and the requirements of the applicable payment systems.
Monthly and annual subscription
Monthly subscription
A monthly subscription begins on the day of its activation or on another date indicated to Party 2 at the time of the order or purchase.
A monthly subscription is valid for one monthly billing period, unless the conditions of the relevant Tariff provide otherwise.
If automatic renewal of the subscription for subsequent months is not activated, the Subscription is not automatically renewed at the end of the current billing period. To continue using paid services, Party 2 must independently select and pay for a new billing period.
If automatic renewal of the subscription for subsequent months has been activated by Party 2, renewal of the Subscription and the charging of funds for the new billing period are carried out in the manner and on the conditions provided for by this Agreement.
Annual subscription
An annual subscription is valid for 1 (one) year from the date of its activation or from another date indicated at the time of the order or purchase.
If the cost of an Annual subscription has been paid in full in advance for the entire relevant period, the cost paid for that period is not changed until the end of its term, except where such a change follows directly from the requirements of applicable legislation and its application to existing contractual relations is mandatory.
On renewal of a Subscription for a new annual billing period, the cost and conditions of the Tariff in force on the date of such renewal apply, unless a special offer or the relevant conditions of Party 1 provide otherwise.
If automatic renewal is not activated for an Annual subscription, the Subscription is not automatically renewed at the end of its term, and to continue using paid services Party 2 must select and pay for a new Subscription.
If automatic renewal is activated for an Annual subscription, it is carried out in the manner provided for in Section 12 of these Terms.
Change in the cost of services
Party 1 is entitled to change Tariffs and pricing conditions for future billing periods independently, in compliance with the procedure provided for by the terms of this Agreement.
In respect of a Monthly subscription, a new price applies no earlier than the beginning of the new billing period following the entry into force of that price.
Party 1 notifies Party 2 in advance of a change in price by one or more of the means of notification provided for in the terms of this Agreement.
Notice of a change in price is sent to Party 2 no less than 15 calendar days before the beginning of the new month for future billing periods.
In respect of an Annual subscription whose cost has been paid in full in advance for the entire annual period, a new price does not apply until the end of the paid billing period.
On renewal of an Annual subscription for a new annual billing period, the price and conditions of the Tariff in force on the date of renewal apply, provided that information about that price was made available to Party 2 before renewal.
If Party 2 does not agree with the new price, it is entitled, before the beginning of the billing period to which the new price applies, to switch off automatic renewal and/or to decline to purchase or renew the Subscription for the new period. In that case the previously paid Subscription remains in force until the end of the current billing period on the conditions previously paid for.
