PetsMating Terms of Use

Welcome to the PetsMating™ Terms of Use (“Terms”)!

We’re glad you are here. These Terms explain how to properly use the PetsMating application (“App”), interact with others on PetsMating, and inform you of your rights and our rights – important stuff! Please keep in mind that these Terms are a legal agreement between You and PetsMating, a brand created, developed and maintained by ETK Technologies (“PetsMating”, “We”, “us”) and apply whenever you use PetsMating.

With all that said, we want you to come away from reading this feeling good and more confident about your experience on PetsMating. So grab Rocky, maybe some treats, and read on…

THE BASICS: HOW THESE TERMS APPLY TO YOU (AND ROCKY)

As mentioned above, the Terms apply whenever you visit, access, or otherwise use PetsMating, either on our App or on our website: https://petsmating.com (“Website”). Whenever you visit PetsMating, you and Rocky accept and agree to be bound by these Terms (it beats having to click “I accept” each time!). If for some reason, you do not accept and disagree with these Terms, you may stop using PetsMating.

Some more ground rules:

PetsMating is not a dating app! So, we do not tolerate those who take it for granted and misuse it in any manner possible. Reports regarding sexual harassment, bullying, fraudulent activity, offensive language and any sort of demeaning behavior will result in total ban and immediate deletion of your account. In some extreme cases we will be forwarding your information to the authorities immediately upon their request.

Your use of PetsMating must not violate any applicable law or regulation, including local and international laws in your jurisdiction.

You agree that you have not been convicted of, nor are subject to any court order relating to assault, violence, sexual misconduct, or harassment.

THESE TERMS APPLY EVEN IF WE CHANGE THEM

PetsMating is constantly evolving, which means we may revise and update these Terms of Use at our sole discretion. If we make material changes to these Terms, we will update the Effective Date, located at the top of this page. All changes are effective immediately when we post them and apply to all access to and use of PetsMating thereafter.

Please check this page regularly so you are aware of any changes, as they are binding on you. Your continued use of the App following the posting of revised Terms means that you accept and agree to the changes.

YOUR ACCOUNT

The first step to connecting with pet owners is registering your account on PetsMating. You may register an account through your email for now (other methods will be introduced in future iterations). We will also ask you to verify your email. For more information regarding the

information we collect from you and how we use it, please consult our Privacy Policy.

Your account is personal to you and Rocky so, please remember to keep your account information secure! You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of the login credentials you use to sign up for PetsMating, and you are solely responsible for all activities that occur under those credentials.

USER CONTENT

You will be prompted to upload a profile picture and fill out basic profile information. Your profile will be visible to other pet owners so put your best paw forward.

Profiles that do not have an owner profile picture and/or minimum basic information will not be visible or able to use our app features until they complete their profile.

Once you have registered an account, you will be able to add your pet profile, upload photographs, message other users (if you match).

HOW WE MAKE SURE PETSMATING REMAINS SAFE AND ENJOYABLE

To ensure our Content Standards, We have the right to:

• Remove or refuse to activate a user for any or no reason at our sole discretion.
• Disclose your identity or other information about you to any third party who claims that pictures posted by you violates their rights, including their intellectual property rights or their right to privacy. So make sure you upload your owned pictures only.
• Owner profile pictures should include your actual picture. Pictures of anything other than a human being will result in deactivation of your account until you update it.
• Owners pictures should be clearly visible which means no sunglasses, shades, dark ambiences (unless the face is clearly visible) to provide security between user interactions.
• Take appropriate legal action, including without limitation, referral to law enforcement, for any illegal or unauthorized use of the App.
• Terminate or suspend your access to all or part of the App for any or no reason, including without limitation any violation of these Terms of Use.
• We also do not allow under any circumstances:

• Any activity on the App with the purpose of exploiting, harming, or attempting to exploit or harm minors in any way by exposing them to inappropriate content, asking for personally identifiable information, or otherwise.
• To send, knowingly receive, upload, download, use, or re-use any material that does not comply with the Content Standards set out in these Terms of Use.
• Transmission, or procure the sending of, any advertising or promotional material including any “junk mail”, “chain letter,” “spam,” or any other similar solicitation.
• Impersonation or attempt to impersonate PetsMating, a PetsMating employee, another user, or any other person or entity (including, without limitation, by using email addresses associated with any of the foregoing).
• Use of any process to monitor or copy any of the material on the App or for any other purpose not expressly authorized in these Terms of Use.
• Use of any device, software, or routine that interferes with the proper working of the App.
• Because we cannot control what other humans may post, We urge our users to maintain their utmost care when setting up meetings with other users outside our platforms. We are not reliable for anything outside our platforms other than connecting you with each other through our chat and it is your responsibility to report any doubtful user or actions through our chat menu. We are not held responsible for any reports made post your meetings other than assisting the local authorities and providing them with the necessary requirements of their requests. Please let us know of any violations of our Content Standards or these Terms by contacting us at: info@petsmating.com

EXTERNAL LINKS

You may encounter links to other sites on PetsMating. We always review any link prior to posting them. For example, we may provide you with links to helpful resources or our recommended website for your pet. Because we have no control over the contents of those sites, we accept no responsibility for any links to external websites or for any loss or damage that may arise from your use of them. Please use your common sense when clicking a link. If you decide to access any of the third-party websites linked to or in the App, you do so entirely at your own risk and subject to the terms and conditions of use for such websites.

INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS

We work really hard to create, build, and continue to enhance our App and provide you with great features. The App and its entire contents, features, and functionality (including but not limited to all information, software, text, displays, images, video, and audio, and the design, selection, and arrangement thereof) are owned by ETK Technologies – owners of the app and brand PetsMating, its licensors, or other providers of such material and are protected by the Egyptian and international copyright, trademark, patent, trade secret, and other intellectual property or proprietary rights laws. PetsMating, our logo, and all related names, logos, product and service names, designs, and slogans are trademarks of PetsMating or its affiliates or licensors. All other names, logos, product and service names, designs, and slogans on the App and Website are the trademarks of their respective owners. You may only use the App for your personal, non-commercial use only. You must not reproduce, distribute, modify, create derivative works of, publicly display, publicly perform, republish, download, store, or transmit any of the material on our App.

COPYRIGHT INFRINGEMENT

If you believe that any User Contributions violate your copyright, please contact us at: info@petsmating.com. It is the policy of PetsMating to terminate the user accounts of repeat infringers.

IN-APP PURCHASES

PetsMating may offer premium features, products and services for purchase (“in-app purchases”) through iTunes, Google Play, carrier billing, other payment platforms authorized by PetsMating. If you choose to make an in-app purchase, you will be prompted to confirm your purchase with the applicable payment provider, and your method of payment (be it your card or a third party account such as Google Play or iTunes) (your “Payment Method”) will be charged at the prices displayed to you for the service(s) you’ve selected as well as any sales or similar taxes that may be imposed on your payments, and you authorize PetsMating or the third-party account, as applicable, to charge you.

AUTOMATIC RENEWAL

If you purchase an auto-recurring periodic subscription, your Payment Method will continue to be billed for the subscription until you cancel. After your initial subscription commitment period, and again after any subsequent subscription period, your subscription will automatically continue for an additional equivalent period, at the price you agreed to when subscribing.

If you do not wish your subscription to renew automatically, or if you want to change or terminate your subscription, you will need to log in to your third party account (or Account Settings on PetsMating) and follow instructions to cancel your subscription, even if you have otherwise deleted your account with us or if you have deleted the PetsMating app from your device. Deleting your account on PetsMating or deleting the PetsMating application from your device does not cancel your subscription; PetsMating will retain all funds charged to your Payment Method until you cancel your subscription on PetsMating and/or the third-party account, as applicable. If you cancel your subscription, you may use your subscription until the end of your then-current subscription term, and your subscription will not be renewed after your then-current term expires.

PAYMENT METHOD

Additional Terms that apply if you pay PetsMating directly with your Payment Method. If you pay PetsMating directly, PetsMating may correct any billing errors or mistakes that it makes even if it has already requested or received payment. If you initiate a chargeback or otherwise reverse a payment made with your Payment Method, PetsMating may terminate your account immediately in its sole discretion.

You may edit your Payment Method information by visiting PetsMating and going to “My Profile.” If payment is not successfully settled, due to expiration, insufficient funds, or otherwise, and you do not edit your Payment Method information or cancel your subscription, you remain responsible for any uncollected amounts and authorize us to continue billing the Payment Method, as it may be updated. This may result in a change to your payment billing dates. In addition, you authorize us to obtain updated or replacement expiration dates and card numbers for your credit or debit card as provided by your credit or debit card issuer. The terms of your payment will be based on your Payment Method and may be determined by agreements between you and the financial institution, credit card issuer, or another provider of your chosen Payment Method. If you reside in the United States, you agree that your payment to PetsMating will be through Credit Card, PayPal, iTunes, or Google Play (Note: at the moment the application does not serve other regions but the terms still apply on future changes made through future iterations).

ADDITIONAL FEATURES

From time to time, you may be able to purchase, a limited, personal, non-transferable, non-sublicensable, revocable license to use “discount cards,” including but not limited to Pet Accessories (collectively, “Discount cards”). Any Discount card balance (user can purchase more than one card) shown in your account does not constitute a real-world balance or reflect any stored value but instead reflects the amount of discount you receive in their designated points of sales. Discount cards do not incur fees for non-use, however, they are time-limited and will terminate in accordance with their duration displayed in your balance next to them and the terms of this Agreement, when PetsMating ceases providing the Service or your account is otherwise closed or terminated. PetsMating, in its sole discretion, reserves the right to charge fees for the right to access or use Discount cards and/ or may distribute Discount cards with or without charge. PetsMating may manage, regulate, control, modify or eliminate Discount cards at any time.

PetsMating shall have no liability to you or any third party in the event that PetsMating exercises any such rights. Discount cards may only be redeemed through the Service. ALL PURCHASES AND REDEMPTIONS OF DISCOUNT CARDS MADE THROUGH THE SERVICE ARE FINAL AND NON-REFUNDABLE. The provision of Discount cards for use in the Service is a service that commences immediately upon the acceptance of your purchase of such Discount cards. YOU ACKNOWLEDGE THAT PETSMATING IS NOT REQUIRED TO PROVIDE A REFUND FOR ANY REASON AND THAT YOU WILL NOT RECEIVE MONEY OR OTHER COMPENSATION FOR UNUSED DISCOUNT CARDS WHEN AN ACCOUNT IS CLOSED, WHETHER SUCH CLOSURE WAS VOLUNTARY OR INVOLUNTARY.

REFUNDS

Generally, all charges for purchases are nonrefundable, and there are no refunds or credits for partially used periods. We may make an exception if a refund for a subscription offering is within 3 days of the transaction date, or if the laws applicable in your jurisdiction provide for refunds. The terms below apply:

You may cancel your subscription, without penalty or obligation, at any time prior to midnight of the third business day following the date you subscribed. In the event that you die before the end of your subscription period, your estate shall be entitled to a refund of that portion of any payment you had made for your subscription which is allocable to the period after your death. In the event that you become disabled (such that you are unable to use the services of PetsMating) before the end of your subscription period, you shall be entitled to a refund of that portion of any payment you had made for your subscription which is allocable to the period after your disability by providing PetsMating notice and the necessary documents of proof of disability in the same manner as you request a refund as described below.

TO REQUEST A REFUND:

• If you subscribed using your Apple ID, refunds are handled by Apple, not PetsMating. To request a refund, go to iTunes, click on your Apple ID, select “Purchase history,” find the transaction, and hit “Report Problem”. You can also submit a request at https://getsupport.apple.com.
• If you subscribed using your Google Play Store account or through PetsMating directly: please contact customer support with your order number for the Google Play Store (you can find the order number in the order confirmation email or by logging in to Google Wallet) or PetsMating (you can find this on your confirmation email).
