Terms and Conditions

I. Contracting Parties

This Contract is concluded between the Customer and the Service Provider in accordance with the distance contract regulations by the Customer expressing its intent to contract, that is, by accepting the contract terms and conditions upon registration on the SeeMe.hu website.

The Customer’s data shall be supplied upon registration. In connection with the service, only the person specified upon registration shall be entitled to make declarations on behalf of the Customer.

Service Provider’s data:

II. Description of the service

On the basis of this Contract, the Service Provider undertakes to forward short text messages (hereinafter: “SMS”) entered by the Customer in the manner specified in Section II. b) over domestic and foreign mobile telephone networks and to receive SMS to dedicated and prefix based leased line numbers (hereinafter: “services”).

The Customer can send and receive SMS via the interface made available by the Service Provider through the web or HTTP gateway (IP connection). For tariffs applicable to the lease of dedicated or prefixed based numbers and to SMS sending see seememobile.com/pricing/

a) Terms and conditions of use of the service

The condition of use of the SMS forwarding and receiving interface is for the Customer to log in into the network operated by the Service Provider using the e-mail address and password provided upon registration.

The services shall be available 24x7, except during regular maintenance periods of which the Service Provider shall notify the Customer by e-mail at least 2 days in advance.

The Customer understands that as the interfaces are to be accessed over the open Internet, the service will be unavailable when the open Internet is down between the Customer and Service Provider, therefore, the Service Provider cannot undertake liability for the inaccessibility of these sections. The Service Provider undertakes to provide access via high availability service at its side.

b) Sending and receiving messages

After login the Customer can use the interface to enter the text to be sent, specify the recipients (subscriber identifiers, phone numbers), and select an active SMS sender. The networks of certain mobile service providers do not support the receipt of SMS messages from individual SMS senders, therefore, SMS messages sent into these networks are to be forwarded in the interest of successful delivery from a number allocated by SeeMe to the given service provider. For the details see: seeme.hu/tudastar/reszletek/szolgaltatofuggo-sms-feladok

When specifying the SMS sender, the Customer must take into account the principles laid down in the National Table of Identifier Allocations for electronic communications networks (at present Decree No. 3/2011. /IX. 26./ of the National Media and Infocommunications Authority on the national allocation plan of electronic communications network identifiers). The Customer may only specify authenticated phone numbers, that is, phone numbers for the use of which it is entitled to. At the Service Provider’s request, the Customer shall prove its right to use the specific SMS sender. The Service Provider shall be entitled to reject the use of the given SMS sender if the requested certificate is refused to be provided, or if there is any indication of misuse of the SMS sender.

In order to prevent the misuse of SMS senders, the Service Provider shall have the right to use phone number filter lists, containing subscriber SMS senders that can be used for misuse, according to which the given SMS sender may not be used for sending text messages. At the Customer’s request, the Service Provider shall inform the Customer of the current filter lists and if the Customer provides evidence that it is entitled to use a phone number on the filter list, the Service Provider shall allow the Customer to use the given phone number as long as such right of use exists.

In spite of the control by the Service Provider of such lists, the Customer shall have full liability for any unlawful use of the SMS sender. If the SMS sender of the message to be sent does not meet the conditions specified in the contract, the Service Provider shall have the right to refuse to send the message.

The Customer acknowledges that it shall have full liability for the contents of the SMS messages and that the data of the sent text messages will become known to the SMS recipient. The Customer undertakes to send messages only to persons who have documentedly given their consent thereto. The Customer undertakes not to send any messages in connection with this contract to any person who has not granted his consent to the receipt of such messages. Accordingly, the Customer shall not use the service for sending spam messages; if the Service Provider becomes aware that the service is used for spamming, it shall have to right to terminate the Contract with extraordinary notice.

The length of SMS messages is limited. A maximum of 3 SMS can be used for a message. The concatenation of such SMS uses an additional character, thus the maximum number of characters that can be used in GMS and Unicode encoding is as follows:

In the case of sending messages in proportion to the market shares of the service providers, the Service Provider shall guarantee the Customer a minimum capacity of 20 SMS/sec with respect to forwarding into the service providers’ networks. Should the sending differ from the market shares of the service providers, the Service Provider will not be able to guarantee but will make all efforts to be able to maintain this speed in that case, too.

Under no circumstances will the Service Provider undertake any liability for the content of the messages sent by the Customer; to avoid legal disputes, the Service Provider will pass on any liability to the Customer relating to the content of the messages.

c) The Parties’ general obligations

The Parties undertake to keep strictly confidential and handle as a business secret all information obtained by them in connection with this Contract and its performance. All facts, information, solutions, and data relating to economic activities shall be regarded as a business secret, the disclosure or acquisition and use by unauthorised persons of which could violate or jeopardise the authorised party’s lawful financial, economic, or market interests.

The Service Provider shall not undertake any liability for the software on the Customer’s website, except if it has been developed by the Service Provider. For this reason, the Service Provider cannot undertake any financial liability for the unintentional sending of an SMS message as a result of the faulty operation of a software developed by a party other than the Service Provider.

The Customer shall have full liability for any damage arising as a result of its non-compliance with the obligations undertaken in the General Contractual Conditions. The Customer undertakes to use the bulk SMS sending service under its own name and at its own risk, that is, it shall not allow the use of the service to any third party. The Customer shall have full liability for any unlawful use of the service (including, but not limited to, the violation of personality rights, actions violating the provisions of the Criminal Code, etc.).

d) Availability

The Service Provider shall ensure an average of at least 98% availability for the Customer. The availability guaranteed by the Service Provider shall also include the maintenance time notified in accordance with these Generacl Contractual Conditions.

e) Roaming

The sending of SMS messages to customers temporarily out of the domestic service area (to customers staying abroad) shall qualify as roaming. SMS delivery to such phone numbers shall depend on the agreements in place between the service providers and their roaming partners, thus SeeMe cannot guarantee 100% delivery of all such messages for reasons out of its control.

f) Data storage

The Customer expressly acknowledges, and grants its consents to, the logging by the Service Provider’s system of the data (IP address, date and time of sending and delivery, host, etc.) of the text messages sent by the Users and of the traffic statistics.

The Service Provider shall store sent and delivered messages for 3 months. The traffic statistics will be available within the system for an unlimited period of time.

III. Service tariffs

For the applicable rates in effect, to be used as a basis of billing, see seememobile.com/pricing/. The prices have been determined uniformly, irrespective of the interface used.

Invoices will be issued depending on the type of payment – either upon refilling (payment in advance), or monthly (subsequent settlement). Each period shall start at 00:00:00 on the first day of the month and end at 23:59:59 on the last day of the month. Invoices issued by the Service Provider shall be paid within 8 days.

In accordance with the general practice, default interest will be charged on overdue payments at a rate of one 365th of double the base rate in effect at the time of charging for each calendar day.

Taking into account the current technical conditions of mobile networks, the Service Provider does not always receive a confirmation of the delivery of an SMS message. The Service Provider shall charge for the SMS messages when received from the Customer for forwarding.

IV. Payment and refund policy

The SeeMe website allows users to recharge via PayPal, and by bank card, bank transfer, or in cash.

Balances uploaded by customers will not lapse and may be used for payment for any service provided by SeeMe, but uploaded balances cannot be refunded due to the related banking costs and for accounting reasons. The initiation of any service subject to payment is final, but if the provision of the service fails – clearly due to a reason attributable to the Service Provider in accordance with the General Contractual Conditions – then the Customer shall be entitled to a credit, money refund. In the case of the unintentional ordering of a service, no refund will be made.

V. Limitation (suspension) of service

The Service Provider shall be entitled to suspend the provision of the service in the case of payments overdue for more than 30 days.

The Service Provider shall have the right to suspend the service for maintenance purposes for a maximum of six (6) hours if the service is down for reasons out of the Service Provider’s control. The suspension of the service for maintenance purposes shall not affect the continuity of the legal relationship.

In the case the General Contractual Conditions are modified, the date of entering into force will also be indicated and the modifications shall take effect on the day of announcement.

In view of the fact that the conditions of forwarding the SMS messages depend on the contracts in place between the Service Provider and other telecommunication service providers, the Service Provider reserves the right to unilaterally modify the service fees. Accordingly, the Service Provider shall have the right to unilaterally modify the tariffs in force upon the acceptance of the contractual conditions subject to prior notification of the subscribers in accordance with the laws in effect.
