If you use the facilitating offer of Payrexx AG, you are required to register with Payrexx before you can use our services. You register by creating an account. In order to comply with anti-terrorism and financial services regulations, the Money Laundering Act and other applicable laws and regulations, as well as KYC ("Know Your Customer") requirements of Payrexx, its affiliates and/or financial institutions or intermediaries, Payrexx is required to ask you for certain information.

Until you have submitted all required information and we have reviewed and approved it, your Payrexx Account will be available to you only on a provisional basis and we may terminate it at any time and for any reason.

If you use payment services, your name (or the name used to identify you) and URL may appear on your customers' account statements or other records.

You may not use the Services if you are under sixteen (16) years of age.

2.3 Verification and acceptance

After registration, we verify your identity and assess the risk that your business activities pose to Payrexx. On this basis, we decide whether we will provide the payment services to you. For this purpose, Payrexx may share your information, including the personal information of your legal representative(s) or ultimate beneficial owner(s), with any financial institution. For this verification, we may ask you to provide additional information, including, but not limited to, financial statements, invoices, permits, or other government-issued identification or consents. If you agree to this Agreement, you hereby grant us and the financial institution (if such is deemed necessary) consent to obtain information about you and to provide such information to third parties, including (but not limited to) companies that collect credit scores and other companies and entities that provide information. Further, you hereby authorize such third party to provide us with such information about you. You understand that such information may include your name, address, credit history and other data. Payrexx may periodically update this information to determine whether you are in continuing compliance with our terms and this Agreement.

You hereby grant Payrexx permission to share information about you, your Application (whether or not your Application is approved or denied), and your Account with financial institutions. This includes the following information:

  1. Information about transactions that enable Payrexx, and/or financial institutions, to meet obligations arising from statutory regulations, applicable law or requirements of supervisory authorities;
  2. Information for use in connection with the administration and maintenance of payment services;
  3. Information that can be used to register or update data about you and help improve payment services; and

If expressly agreed by the parties, Payrexx may use your information to apply on your behalf for the opening of an account with the financial institutions or intermediaries if such an account is required to process transactions through the Payment Service.

2.4 Changing your business and updating your Payrexx account

You agree to keep the information in your Payrexx Account up to date. You must promptly update your Payrexx account with any changes affecting you, the nature of your business, your agents, beneficial owners, principals or other related information.

3. your business relations with your customers

You may use the Services only for legitimate transactions with your customers. You know your customers better than we do and you are responsible for your relationship with them. Payrexx is not responsible for the products or services you publish or sell, or for your customers making their purchases using the Services, or, if you accept donations, for your communications with your customers about the intended use of those donations. You acknowledge that you are solely responsible for the nature and quality of the products or services you provide and for any delivery, support, refunds, returns or other ancillary services you provide to your customers.

Payrexx provides the Services to you, but we have no way of knowing whether a particular purchase, sale, donation, order or other transaction (each individually referred to herein as a "Transaction") is accurate or complete or customary for your business. You are responsible for determining whether a transaction initiated by your customer is erroneous (such as when a customer purchases one item but actually intended to order another) or suspicious (such as unusual or large purchases or a request for delivery overseas when this does not normally occur). If you are not sure whether a transaction is erroneous or suspicious, you agree to investigate the transaction and, if necessary, contact your customer before processing or completing the transaction. You are solely responsible for any losses you incur as a result of erroneous or fraudulent transactions in connection with your use of the Services.

4. support

We will provide you with support to resolve common issues related to your Payrexx account and your use of the Services. This support includes material and documents that we make available to you through the current versions of the Payrexx support pages, API documentation and other pages on our website (collectively, the "Documentation"). The most efficient way to get answers to your questions is to review our Documentation. If you still have questions after consulting the Documentation, please contact us.

5.2 Prohibited activities

You may not use the Services to enable yourself or any other person to benefit from activities that Payrexx classifies as consent-required or prohibited transactions and activities (hereinafter collectively referred to as "Consent-Required and Prohibited Transactions").

5.5 Suspicion of unauthorized or illegal use

If we suspect or know that you are using or have used the Services for unauthorized, fraudulent or unlawful purposes, we may disclose information about such activities to the appropriate financial institution, regulatory agency or law enforcement agency in accordance with our legal obligations.

You are solely responsible for assisting your customers. Further, you are responsible for responding to a customer email within a reasonable time if that email contains questions about your goods or services or use of the Payment Service.

Payrexx is not responsible or liable to you or your customers for handling these complaints on your behalf, and Payrexx expressly remains outside the contractual relationship between you and your customer. However, in exceptional circumstances, for a particular complaint, such as if you fail to respond during Payrexx's investigation or if Payrexx has a strong suspicion of fraud, Payrexx may, in its sole discretion and in accordance with its internal policies, decide to pursue recoveries on your behalf against the customer for a particular transaction that was disputed by that customer. You acknowledge and agree that, notwithstanding Article 8.3, Payrexx shall have no liability to you in any such case, except if and to the extent enforced by applicable laws and regulations.

Each transaction exclusively represents a contractual relationship between you and the customer(s) on the one hand and a financial institution and the customer(s) on the other hand. Payrexx is expressly not involved in this/these contractual relationship(s), which means that no obligations exist or arise for Payrexx as a result of this/these contractual relationship(s).

  2. Transactions that are unauthorized or where we have reason to believe that the transaction is unauthorized or misauthorized;
  3. Transactions that do not comply with the rules of the relevant network processing the transaction, the participating card-issuing institution or this Agreement, or are deemed unlawful or suspicious; or

  6. if we have reason to believe that the transaction is illegal or fraudulent.

You are fully responsible and liable for the chargeback, regardless of the reason and time, even if the chargeback has already been completed. In the event of a chargeback, you shall be directly liable to Payrexx for the full amount of the chargeback plus any fees, costs and fines, including any fines that may be imposed on Payrexx by the intermediary(s) and the financial institution. You agree that Payrexx may offset any amounts you owe Payrexx (such as, but not limited to, chargebacks or fees) against any credit balance in your account or debit the amount from the bank account known to Payrexx, and hereby authorize Payrexx to do so. If Payrexx is not able to collect this debt itself, you will pay Payrexx the full amount upon first request.

If, in addition to the above, there is a suspicion that a particular transaction may result in a chargeback, Payrexx shall be entitled to withhold the amount of the potential chargeback and any associated fees, fines or penalties, or to withhold such amounts from the proceeds due to you or your account until:

  1. a chargeback is established as a result of a customer complaint, in which case the financial institution shall withhold the funds;
  2. You have successfully completed a chargeback clarification process;
  3. the period prescribed by the applicable legislation or by the terms and conditions applicable to the payment method during which a customer may dispute the relevant transaction has elapsed, or
  4. Payrexx has determined that a chargeback will no longer take place.

You have the option to dispute the chargebacks imposed on you. We can assist you with notifications and software. However, we assume no liability for our role or assistance in disputing the chargeback. You acknowledge that you will provide us, in a timely manner and at your own expense, with the information necessary to investigate the chargeback and resolve the issue within three (3) business days (unless otherwise specified). You authorize us to share relevant information with the Cardholder, the Card-issuing institution, the Intermediary, and the Financial Institution and our Affiliates in order to resolve a dispute. You understand that if you do not provide us with complete and accurate information in a timely manner, it may result in a final chargeback that cannot be voided. If the card-issuing institution, payment method provider, or applicable intermediary(s) does not resolve a dispute in your favor, we may recover the amount of the chargeback and related costs from you as described in this Agreement. We reserve the right to charge you for any costs we incur for analysis or mediation related to chargebacks.

Payrexx, the financial institutions or the intermediary(s) may decide that you are responsible for an extremely high number of chargebacks. An extremely high number of chargebacks may result in additional costs and fines. In addition, it may result in the restriction of how you may use our services, including but not limited to the following:

  1. Withholding of funds in your credit to cover any (potential) liability under this Agreement;
  2. Changes in the terms and conditions and the amount of a deposit to be retained by Payrexx;
  3. Application of certain measures in relation to the payment services provided by Payrexx;
  4. Increase in invoiced costs;
  5. Delay of disbursements, or
  6. possible discontinuation or termination of the payment services provided by Payrexx.

If the number of chargebacks is extremely high, the financial institutions and/or intermediaries involved may also impose additional controls and restrictions on the processing of your transactions.

In the event that you are a platform provider and use split payments, you are fully responsible and liable for chargebacks and refunds from the sub-provider, unless the chargeback or refund can be collected by Payrexx from the sub-provider's balance.

9.8 Rolling reserve

For the duration of this agreement, Payrexx has the right to retain a percentage of each transaction we process for you over a certain period of time. This is called rolling reserve and serves among other things to cover chargebacks and recoveries.

A rolling reserve is a reserve where a percentage of each transaction you receive each day is held and released according to a specific schedule. The details of the rolling reserve depend on the level of risk, as some companies are more likely to face a high volume of chargebacks and/or recoveries than others. Reasons for applying a rolling reserve include (this is not a complete list):

  • You are in a high-risk industry;
  • Their transaction history shows high chargeback rates;
  • You are running a new business with no experience yet;
  • Your business model includes long delivery times (e.g. travel, hospitality, events or ticket sales).

The rolling reserve mechanism will remain in place for the duration of your contract, unless Payrexx informs you otherwise. If Payrexx applies a rolling reserve, you will still receive the full amount of the transaction, but the settlements will be (partially) delayed.

9.9 Payment processing

9.9.1 Disbursements

The payment of a credit to you will be made as configured in the dashboard. If Payrexx detects a difference between the payment made to you and the outstanding credit, Payrexx reserves the right to offset the difference or reclaim the incorrect payment until the situation is clarified.

Payrexx is entitled to change the number of payouts or to (temporarily) discontinue payment services and payouts or to cancel transactions, for example, if there are complaints, seizures or attachments have been made or Payrexx has to initiate an investigation due to possible fraud (see also Article 6.1). Your obligations in connection with the use of the payment service shall continue to apply in full during this period.

In any event, if Payrexx is exceptionally unable to clear the balance on your account, Payrexx reserves the right to transfer such funds to its own accounts within one (1) year after it has notified you thereof, to the extent permitted by law. In such a case, you will have the opportunity to submit a request to recover these funds within five (5) years of the closure of your Payrexx account by contacting Support. Payrexx will review your request within a reasonable timeframe and on the condition that you provide Payrexx with the required information. Depending on the reason Payrexx cannot clear the funds in your account, we may not be able to pay the funds to you.

9.9.2 Faulty transactions

The information required for a withdrawal depends on the financial institution that holds the withdrawal account. Please ensure that information about the Withdrawal Accounts that you have provided to us is accurate and complete. If you provide us with inaccurate information, (i) you understand that amounts may be disbursed to the wrong account and that we may not be able to recover such erroneously transferred funds, and (ii) you agree that you will be solely responsible for any losses incurred by you or third parties as a result of erroneous disbursement transactions, that you will not make any claims against us in connection with such transactions, and that you will reimburse us in full for any losses incurred by us.

9.9.3 Inactive accounts

If you leave funds dormant in a Payrexx account, Payrexx reserves the right in any case to transfer these funds to its own accounts within one (1) year after it has notified you thereof, to the extent permitted by law. In such case, you will have the option to submit a request to recover such funds within five (5) years of the closure of your Payrexx account by contacting Support. To the extent required by law, we will attempt to provide you with notice if we hold funds payable to you in an account beyond the applicable inactivity period for abandoned assets.

10. safety

10.1 Payrexx Security

Payrexx is responsible for maintaining the security of data in our possession. We will maintain commercially reasonable administrative, technical and physical procedures to protect User Data and Personal Data stored on our servers from unauthorized access, accidental loss, alteration or breach, and we will comply with applicable laws and payment method rules when handling User Data and Personal Data. However, no security system is impregnable and we cannot guarantee that unauthorized persons will not at any time be able to defeat our security measures or misuse data in our possession. You provide Payrexx User Data and Personal Data with the knowledge that the security measures we have in place may not be adequate or appropriate for your business, and you agree to implement the security controls defined below and any additional controls to meet your particular requirements. In our sole discretion, we may take any action, including blocking your Payrexx account, to preserve the integrity and security of the Services or data or to prevent harm to you, us, customers or third parties. You waive any right to make a claim against us for losses incurred by you that may result from such actions.

10.2 Fraud

Payrexx has the right to terminate this Agreement with immediate effect and/or temporarily suspend payment services or payouts if there is talk of (a suspicion of) fraud or illegal activities or indications of these and/or there are situations where a closer investigation is necessary. In addition, as stated in Article 5.6, Payrexx may in exceptional cases decide to make recoveries to your customers on your behalf. You will be notified of this by email or telephone, unless such notification is not permitted by law or is not deemed desirable in the context of the investigation; Payrexx shall not be liable for any damages incurred as a result.

10.3 Security and fraud protection measures

You are responsible for assessing your organization's security requirements and for selecting and implementing security procedures and controls ("Security Controls") that are appropriate to reduce your risk of security incidents. We may provide security controls as part of the Services or suggest that you implement certain security controls. However, your responsibility for the security of your business is not diminished by any security controls we provide or suggest, and if you believe that the security controls we provide are inadequate, then you must separately implement additional controls that meet your requirements. You can view some details of our security controls on our website.

10.4 Secrecy

The Parties shall, unless they have received the prior written consent of the Contractual Partner, treat all data and information relating to the Contractual Partner (including its subsidiaries) which are secret or of a confidential nature as strictly confidential, shall protect such data and information in an appropriate manner and shall not disclose them in any form to third parties. The Parties shall apply the information meant herein exclusively within the scope of this Agreement.

Except as otherwise authorized in writing or set forth in this Agreement, secret or confidential information or data shall mean in all cases, but not limited to: all information expressly designated by the other party as secret or confidential, all information and data that becomes known to the parties by virtue of this Agreement, technical, financial and business information, drawings, formats, concepts, source codes, pilot projects and any other information that the parties know or reasonably should know is of a secret or confidential nature and must not be disclosed to third parties, for example, because the disclosure of such data or information would potentially cause damage or other detriment to the other party.

The parties shall also not use or disclose the confidential information and/or data provided and/or disclosed to them under a contract if a contract is terminated prematurely or at the normal time, in whole or in part, or if a contract ends.

The Parties shall be entitled to disclose or provide confidential information of the Contractual Partners to the competent authorities and government agencies if they are obligated to do so due to applicable statutory provisions or if it is information that Payrexx is obligated to disclose to an intermediary due to corresponding agreements made with this intermediary. Payrexx may also access, aggregate and use non-personally identifiable data that in no way identifies the Customer, the Company or any other person. Payrexx may use this data to a) better understand how its customers use the Payment Services; b) provide its customers with more information about the use and benefits of the Payment Services; c) improve business productivity, including by gaining useful business insights from aggregated data that enable companies to compare their business performance against that aggregated data; and d) otherwise improve the Payment Services.

Payrexx is entitled to disclose information (including confidential information) to an intermediary and/or a financial institution if (a suspicion of) fraudulent use of the payment service and/or a request by an intermediary and/or a financial institution exists.

Privacy

11.1 Responsibility

Personal data is processed in the course of the performance of the contract. Payrexx processes personal data i) in connection with its payment services; ii) in connection with legal obligations; iii) to ensure the security and integrity of the financial sector, for example by identifying, investigating, preventing and actively combating (intended) criminal/illegal behavior; and iv) to analyze, develop and improve our services and products. In our Privacy Policy, we explain in more detail how and for what purposes we collect, use, store, disclose and protect the personal data that Payrexx processes from you and your customers.

To the extent that we are a processor, we will process personal data in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and lawful instructions given to us by you from time to time, and we will take appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect such personal data. We will not be liable for any claim made by a data subject arising out of any act or omission by us to the extent that such act or omission arose from your instructions.

You warrant that you comply with all requirements set forth in applicable data protection laws for the processing of personal data as offered in the payment service by you as a company or by your customers. If you do not comply with the aforementioned obligations, or if an intermediary or a financial institution, a judge or an authority requires or demands this of Payrexx, Payrexx shall be entitled to suspend the performance of its obligations towards you.

If applicable to you, you must at all times comply with the regulations set forth in the relevant sections of the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standards (PCI-DSS) and the Payment Application Data Security Standards (PA-DSS). If, despite this, a so-called "Account Data Compromise" (ADC) occurs due to your actions, you shall be liable for it. If Payrexx and/or an intermediary conducts an investigation on the occasion of an ADC and costs are associated with this investigation, you hereby accept in advance these costs, fines and penalties, but only insofar as Payrexx has made the scope or an estimate of these costs known to you in advance. Information about PCI-DSS can be found on the PCI Council website.

If Payrexx deems a review necessary in which it verifies whether you comply with the aforementioned PCI standards, you must immediately submit documents that clearly and unambiguously show this. You confirm that you only use suppliers that comply with the PCI standards regarding the storage and transmission of payment data relating in particular, but not exclusively, to the card number (the so-called Primary Account Number or PAN), card expiration dates and the CVV2 code. We recommend that you do not store such data in any way. You are aware of the fact that you are generally prohibited from storing the CVV2 Code in any form.

You must stipulate in the contract with your customer or in the general terms and conditions applicable to the relationship with your customer that you use the services of Payrexx for the processing of transactions and that personal data of your customer will be shared with Payrexx in this context. If applicable, you must ensure that your customer directly or indirectly provides Payrexx with all necessary (explicit) authorizations and consents in terms of the relevant data protection laws.

11.2 Protection of personal data

The protection of personal data is very important to us. Our Privacy Policy explains how and for what purposes we collect, use, retain, disclose and protect the personal information you provide to us. You agree to the terms of our Privacy Policy, which we may update from time to time. You acknowledge that you currently comply and will continue to comply with all applicable laws regarding privacy, data protection and use of information you provide to us or access through your use of the Services. You further confirm that you have obtained all necessary rights and consents under applicable laws to disclose to Payrexx, or permit Payrexx to collect, use, retain and disclose, any personal data that you provide to us or that you authorize us to collect, including data that we may collect directly from customers through cookies or similar means. To the extent required by law and in connection with this Agreement, you are solely responsible for disclosing information to customers that Payrexx may process transactions (including payment transactions) for you and obtain personal information from you. In addition, to the extent required by law or the Payment Method Rules, we may delete or remove a customer's personal information from your Payrexx account if requested to do so by the customer. Payrexx will provide some or all of its services through systems located within Switzerland, the EU or other countries outside the EU. Therefore, you are required to disclose to your customers that Payment Data may be transferred to, processed and stored in countries outside of Switzerland and subject to disclosure as required by applicable law, as specified in our Privacy Policy, and you are required to obtain from your customers all consents required by applicable law in connection with the foregoing. If we learn of any unauthorized acquisition, disclosure or loss of personal information of customers on our systems, we will notify you in accordance with our obligations under applicable law. We will also notify you and provide you with sufficient information about the unauthorized acquisition, disclosure or loss of personal information to assist you in mitigating any adverse impact on the customer.

11.3 Confidentiality of personal data

Each party undertakes to take all necessary steps to keep personal data confidential. Payrexx shall provide personal data to third parties exclusively i) in the context of the Payment Services and ii) to the extent required by law. In other situations, the Parties shall refrain from providing personal data to third parties without the prior written consent of the other Party, with the exception of Payrexx if this is necessary for the provision of the Services.

Furthermore, Payrexx may share your contact information with your customers in case of receiving complaints or questions from your customers about you.

For more information on confidentiality of information in general, see Article 10.4.

We may provide you with notice of changes through the Dashboard, by email, or by other reasonable means. If you are already a Payrexx user, the changes will take effect on the date we specify in the notice, and your use of the Services, API or Data after a change takes effect will constitute your acceptance of the terms of the amended Agreement.

Payrexx may assign this Agreement without your consent or any other restrictions. We will notify you of any assignment with reasonable notice.

12.3 Right to test

If, in our judgment, a security breach, vulnerability, loss, or compromise of data has occurred on your systems, website, or App that affects your compliance with this Agreement, we may require you to allow an external auditor appointed by us to conduct a security audit of your systems and assets, and you must cooperate fully with any requests for information or assistance that the auditor makes to you as part of the security audit. The auditor will provide us with a report that we may share with our payment providers and merchant banks.

12.4 General liability

In no event shall a Payrexx Company be liable to you for any indirect, punitive, incidental, special, consequential or exemplary damages arising out of your use or inability to use the Services, or for the unavailability of the Services, lost profits, personal injury, property damage or other damages arising out of or in connection with or related to this Agreement or your use of the Services, even if such damages are foreseeable, and regardless of whether you or the Payrexx Companies have been advised of the possibility of such damages. The Payrexx Companies shall not be liable and disclaim any responsibility for any damage, harm, or loss to you resulting from hacking, tampering, or other unauthorized access to or use of any Services, your Payrexx account, or data, or from your failure to apply or establish anti-fraud measures, security controls, or other data security measures. The Payrexx Companies further disclaim liability for any harm to you or any third party caused by any of the following: (a) access to or use of the Services by you not in accordance with the Documentation; (b) unauthorized access to servers, infrastructure or data used in connection with the Services; (c) interruptions or malfunctions of the Services; (d) programming errors, viruses or other malicious code that may be transmitted in or through the Services; (e) errors, inaccuracies, omissions or losses in or to the data provided to us; (f) external content provided by you; or (g) defamatory, offensive or unlawful conduct by third parties.

You agree to limit any further liability not excluded or denied by the Payrexx Companies under this Agreement to your direct and provable damages, and you further agree that under no circumstances will such liability exceed in the aggregate the amount of fees you had paid to Payrexx during the three-month period immediately preceding the event giving rise to your claim for damages.

These limitations on our liability to you apply regardless of the legal basis on which your claim is based, including in contract, tort (including negligence), strict liability or any other legal basis.

We provide some of the Services from facilities located in Switzerland. We make no claims and cannot guarantee that the Services we provide from Switzerland are or will be appropriate or available for any other location or jurisdiction, or that they will comply with the laws of any other location or jurisdiction, or with any export, import or foreign use laws.

12.5 Liability for hacking attacks

Payrexx shall not be liable for any losses, damages, claims or costs resulting directly or indirectly from hacker attacks, DDoS attacks or other cyber-attacks that lead to an impairment of the availability, integrity or confidentiality of our services or customer data.

The Customer acknowledges that despite the security measures implemented by Payrexx, an absolute level of protection against hacker attacks, DDoS attacks or other cyber attacks cannot be guaranteed. The Customer understands and accepts that the use of the services of [Your Company] is at the Customer's own risk and Payrexx cannot be held liable for downtimes, data losses or impairments resulting from such attacks.

In the event of an attack or security breach, Payrexx will take appropriate measures to remedy the problem and minimize the impact. Nevertheless, Payrexx cannot assume any liability for resulting losses or damages.

Payrexx shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special or consequential damages, lost profits or other intangible losses resulting from hacker attacks, DDoS attacks or other cyber attacks, even if Payrexx has been advised of the possibility of such damages.

12.6 Your liability for third-party claims against Payrexx

Without limitation and in addition to any other obligations owed by you under this Agreement, you shall at all times be responsible for the acts and omissions of your employees, contractors and agents to the extent such persons are acting within the scope of their relationship with you. You agree to defend Payrexx, our affiliates, and their respective employees, agents, and service providers (each, a "Payrexx Entity") against any and all claims, disputes, demands, losses, liabilities, damages, actions, or proceedings (each, a "Claim") brought by a third party against any Payrexx Entity, and you agree to reimburse the Payrexx Entities in full for all Claims arising out of: (i) your breach of any provision of this Agreement; (ii) fees, fines, claims, refunds, chargebacks, refunds or other liabilities incurred by us arising out of your use of the Payment Services; (iii) negligent or willful misconduct of your employees, contractors or agents; or (iv) contractual or other relationships between you and customers. **Important Note to Sole Proprietors: If you are using the Services as a sole proprietor, please remember that the law and the terms of this Agreement consider you and your business to be one and the same entity for legal purposes. You are personally responsible and liable for your use of the Services, payment of any fees, refunds, chargebacks, fines, losses due to claims or fraud, and any other amounts owed to you under this Agreement due to your failure to establish security controls, and for all other obligations to us and your customers. You risk personal financial loss if you fail to pay amounts owed. Please take the time to read our documentation and take all appropriate steps to protect against such losses.

12.7 Force majeure

In case of force majeure, the parties shall not be liable. Force majeure is understood to mean the following circumstances and events: Circumstances or events beyond the control and intentions of the parties, whether or not such circumstances or events were known or foreseen at the time of signing any contract, due to which the parties cannot reasonably be expected to perform their obligations under the contract. Such circumstances or events include in any event, but are not limited to: War, fire, natural disasters, labor disputes, power disruptions, strikes, epidemics, governmental and/or similar regulations, embargoes, poor performance (due to insolvency or otherwise) by suppliers, financial institutions, subcontractors or other third parties used by the parties (including subsidiaries) to perform this Agreement, attachments, hacker attacks, unavailability of the systems of financial institutions and/or telecommunication services and (attempted) unauthorized access to and/or unauthorized use of the systems, networks and databases belonging to Payrexx, the Company, the Intermediaries and/or the financial institutions and/or on which Payrexx, the Company, Intermediaries and/or financial institutions is or are dependent as well as all work improperly performed thereon that was not performed by Payrexx or the third parties employed by it.

Payrexx may respond to and comply with any garnishment order, lien, attachment, subpoena or court order or other court order that we deem valid ("Court Order"). We or a Payment Method Provider (or, if applicable, the Payment Method Merchant Bank) may transfer or hold funds or, subject to the terms of our Privacy Policy, data requested pursuant to any such Court Order, even if you accept funds or data on behalf of other parties. To the extent permitted by law, we will use reasonable efforts to provide you with notice of such court order by sending you a copy to the email address we have on file for you. Payrexx will not be responsible for any direct or indirect loss you may incur as a result of our response to or compliance with any court order.

12.11 Entire contract

This Agreement and all policies and procedures incorporated herein by reference constitute the entire agreement between you and Payrexx regarding the provision and use of the Services. Unless otherwise expressly stated in any document entered into between you and Payrexx, this Agreement shall take precedence over any policies or agreements governing the provision or use of the Services that conflict herewith. This Agreement sets forth your exclusive remedies in connection with the Services. If any provision or portion of this Agreement is found to be invalid or unenforceable under the law, it will be restated and interpreted to carry out the purposes of that provision to the fullest extent possible, and all remaining provisions will remain in full force and effect. Unless otherwise agreed, Payrexx shall remain bound to the offer for 30 days.

Any deviation from this Agreement shall only be legally effective if agreed in writing by the parties.

Payrexx reserves the right to change this contract. Notification thereof may be made in writing, by email or via the Payrexx Dashboard. The changes shall come into force one (1) month after their announcement, unless otherwise specified in this respect. If you do not agree with these changes, you shall have the right to terminate this Agreement subject to a notice period of one (1) month after communication.

This Agreement shall be governed exclusively by Swiss law, and the parties shall submit all disputes to the competent court in Bern.
