Terms & Conditions
For Service Use Of
APARI Software Ltd.

2.1 These are our terms and conditions which apply to our Service (explained below). We’ve tried to make them user-friendly. Please read them carefully and save a copy as we don’t file a copy specifically for the transaction with you. They’re available in English only. 

Where you communicate with us on behalf of a company / organisation, you promise that you have authority to act on its behalf.

3.1 Here are some definitions which are used in this document (all capitalised):

• “App” – the Apari mobile application (and any related services supplied by us).
• “Consumer” - an individual acting for purposes which are wholly or mainly outside that person’s trade, business, craft or profession.
• “Content” - all information of whatever kind used on our Service (including Data).
• “Data” – transactions, bank statements, contract lists and other similar information that you upload to our Service.
• “Service” – our website, our App and any related services.
• “Store” – the app distributor from which you download the App (e.g., Apple App Store, Google Play App Store).
• “Store Rules” – any applicable rules, policies or terms of the relevant Store.
• “User” - persons or organisations using our Service (whether or not registered with us).

4.1 While our Service generates automated information for suggested inclusion in your tax return based on Data you inputted, we do not guarantee that the information will be accurately reflected in the return or that the return is otherwise correct and we do not accept legal responsibility for it. It is your responsibility to carefully check your return and take professional advice if appropriate before submitting it via our Service.

4.2 To enable us to send alerts, you must ensure you give us correct contact information and immediately update us if it changes. We are not responsible for checking or updating your contact information even if we have reason to think that it is wrong or out of date (e.g., because our alert is returned). In any case, you acknowledge the risk that for whatever reason alerts may not be correctly sent out by our Service or received by the intended recipient. It is your responsibility to separately diarise and comply with tax return and other important dates.

5.1 By registering on our website, you enter a legal contract with us to use our Service. Alternatively, if you first download our App, you enter into a legal contract with us at that point.

5.2 For App users: These terms and conditions are an “end user licence agreement” between you and us (not the Store) in relation to our App (i.e. setting out how we allow you to use our App). You also agree to be legally bound by the Store Rules.

5.3 By browsing any part of our Service that does not require registration/payment, you are also bound by these terms to the extent they are relevant.

6.1 If you are a Consumer, you have the right to cancel this contract subject to what we say below.

6.3 If you do have the right to cancel, please see the instructions at the end of this document.

If so, you must not attempt to re-publish or re-send the relevant Content.

10.4 We may place advertisements near or within your Content. If so, we retain all revenue from such advertisements.

10.6 We may irretrievably delete your Content without telling you after 14 days following the end of this agreement or if you have a free account that has been inactive for 60 days.

You authorise us and our payment provider to charge your payment card for the relevant amounts when payments are due in accordance with this agreement.

Otherwise the next renewal of your subscription after the one month’s notice will be at the new price.
