Terms Of Use

Relationship with talk-AI-tive

Your use of talk-AI-tive’ products, software, services and web sites (referred to collectively as the “Service(s)” in this document and excluding any services provided to you or your employees by talk-AI-tive under a separate written agreement) is subject to the terms of a legal agreement between you and talk-AI-tive (as defined below in Section) contained in this document and/or any other document expressly referred to herein. This document explains how the agreement is made up, and sets out some of the terms of that agreement.

Unless otherwise agreed in writing with talk-AI-tive, your agreement with talk-AI-tive will always include, at a minimum, the terms and conditions set out in this document. These are referred to below as the “Universal Terms”.

Your agreement with talk-AI-tive will also include all subscription rates and payment terms applicable to the Services chosen by you (the “Payment Terms”). The Payment Terms, including any related additional terms applicable to your subscription, are published on talk-AI-tive websites or are otherwise made available to you either within, or through your use of, the Service you subscribe to. Depending on which Services you subscribe to, your agreement with talk-AI-tive may also include the terms of any Legal Notices applicable to such Services and/or certain terms specific to the use of such Services, in particular terms related to data collection and use (the “Specific Terms”). Where Specific Terms apply to a Service, these will be accessible for you to read either within, or through your use of, that Service, or will be provided to you separately, upon your request.

The Universal Terms, together with any related Specific Terms applicable to your subscription and the Payment Terms, form a legally binding agreement between you and talk-AI-tive in relation to your use of the Services. It is important that you take the time to read them carefully. Collectively, this legal agreement is referred to below as the “Terms”.

If there is any contradiction between what the Specific Terms say and what the Universal Terms say, then the Specific Terms shall take precedence in relation to that Service.
