-<p>Last Updated: 09.06.2022</p>
-<p>Welcome! The ICE research center of the Bern University of Applied Sciences
-in Switzerland (“we,” “our,” or “us”) provides an experimental payment service
-through our Internet presence (collectively the “Services”). Before using our
-Services, please read the Terms of Service (the “Terms” or the “Agreement”)
-carefully.</p>
-<div class="section" id="this-is-research">
-<h2>This is research<a class="headerlink" href="#this-is-research" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h2>
-<p>This is a research experiment. Any funds wired to our Bitcoin address are
-considered a donation to our research group. We may use them to enable
-payments following the GNU Taler protocol, or simply keep them at our
-discretion. The service is experimental and may also be discontinued at
-any time, in which case all remaining funds will definitively be kept by
-the research group.</p>
-</div>
-<div class="section" id="overview">
-<h2>Overview<a class="headerlink" href="#overview" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h2>
-<p>This section provides a brief summary of the highlights of this
-Agreement. Please note that when you accept this Agreement, you are accepting
-all of the terms and conditions and not just this section. We and possibly
-other third parties provide Internet services which interact with the Taler
-Wallet’s self-hosted personal payment application. When using the Taler Wallet
-to interact with our Services, you are agreeing to our Terms, so please read
-carefully.</p>
-<div class="section" id="highlights">
-<h3>Highlights:<a class="headerlink" href="#highlights" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h3>
-<blockquote>
-<div><ul class="simple">
-<li><p>You are responsible for keeping the data in your Taler Wallet at all times
-under your control. Any losses arising from you not being in control of
-your private information are your problem.</p></li>
-<li><p>We may transfer funds we receive from our users to any legal
-recipient to the best of our ability within the limitations of the law and
-our implementation. However, the Services offered today are highly
-experimental and the set of recipients of funds is severely restricted.
-Again, we stress this is a research experiment and technically all funds
-held by the exchange are owned by the research group of the university.</p></li>
-<li><p>For our Services, we may charge transaction fees. The specific fee structure
-is provided based on the Taler protocol and should be shown to you when you
-withdraw electronic coins using a Taler Wallet. You agree and understand
-that the Taler protocol allows for the fee structure to change.</p></li>
-<li><p>You agree to not intentionally overwhelm our systems with requests and
-follow responsible disclosure if you find security issues in our services.</p></li>
-<li><p>We cannot be held accountable for our Services not being available due to
-any circumstances. If we modify or terminate our services,
-we may give you the opportunity to recover your funds. However,
-given the experimental state of the Services today, this may not be
-possible. You are strongly advised to limit your use of the Service
-to small-scale experiments expecting total loss of all funds.</p></li>
-</ul>
-</div></blockquote>
-<p>These terms outline approved uses of our Services. The Services and these

-<p>We will try to transfer funds that we receive from users to any legal
-recipient to the best of our ability and within the limitations of the
-law. However, the Services offered today are highly experimental and the set
-of recipients of funds is severely restricted. The Taler Wallet can be loaded
-by exchanging fiat or cryptocurrencies against electronic coins. We are
-providing this exchange service. Once your Taler Wallet is loaded with
-electronic coins they can be spent for purchases if the seller is accepting
-Taler as a means of payment. We are not guaranteeing that any seller is
-accepting Taler at all or a particular seller. The seller or recipient of
-deposits of electronic coins must specify the target account, as per the
-design of the Taler protocol. They are responsible for following the protocol
-and specifying the correct bank account, and are solely liable for any losses
-that may arise from specifying the wrong account. We may allow the government
-to link wire transfers to the underlying contract hash. It is the
-responsibility of recipients to preserve the full contracts and to pay
-whatever taxes and charges may be applicable. Technical issues may lead to
-situations where we are unable to make transfers at all or lead to incorrect
-transfers that cannot be reversed. We may refuse to execute transfers if the
-transfers are prohibited by a competent legal authority and we are ordered to
-do so.</p>
-<p>When using our Services, you agree to not take any action that intentionally
-imposes an unreasonable load on our infrastructure. If you find security
-problems in our Services, you agree to first report them to

-above responsible disclosure practice.</p>

-time. With the exception of wire transfer fees, Taler transaction fees are set
-for any electronic coin at the time of withdrawal and fixed throughout the
-validity period of the respective electronic coin. Your wallet should obtain
-and display applicable fees when withdrawing funds. Fees for coins obtained as
-change may differ from the fees applicable to the original coin. Wire transfer
-fees that are independent from electronic coins may change annually. You
-authorize us to charge or deduct applicable fees owed in connection with

-Terms Of Service
-****************
-
-Last Updated: 09.06.2022
-
-Welcome! The ICE research center of the Bern University of Applied
-Sciences in Switzerland (“we,” “our,” or “us”) provides an
-experimental payment service through our Internet presence
-(collectively the “Services”). Before using our Services, please read
-the Terms of Service (the “Terms” or the “Agreement”) carefully.
-
-
-This is research
-================
-
-This is a research experiment. Any funds wired to our Bitcoin address
-are considered a donation to our research group. We may use them to
-enable payments following the GNU Taler protocol, or simply keep them
-at our discretion. The service is experimental and may also be
-discontinued at any time, in which case all remaining funds will
-definitively be kept by the research group.
-
-
-Overview
-========
-
-This section provides a brief summary of the highlights of this
-Agreement. Please note that when you accept this Agreement, you are
-accepting all of the terms and conditions and not just this section.
-We and possibly other third parties provide Internet services which
-interact with the Taler Wallet’s self-hosted personal payment
-application. When using the Taler Wallet to interact with our
-Services, you are agreeing to our Terms, so please read carefully.
-
-
-Highlights:
------------
-
- * You are responsible for keeping the data in your Taler Wallet at
- all times under your control. Any losses arising from you not
- being in control of your private information are your problem.
-
- * We may transfer funds we receive from our users to any legal
- recipient to the best of our ability within the limitations of
- the law and our implementation. However, the Services offered
- today are highly experimental and the set of recipients of funds
- is severely restricted. Again, we stress this is a research
- experiment and technically all funds held by the exchange are
- owned by the research group of the university.
-
- * For our Services, we may charge transaction fees. The specific
- fee structure is provided based on the Taler protocol and should
- be shown to you when you withdraw electronic coins using a Taler
- Wallet. You agree and understand that the Taler protocol allows
- for the fee structure to change.
-
- * You agree to not intentionally overwhelm our systems with
- requests and follow responsible disclosure if you find security
- issues in our services.
-
- * We cannot be held accountable for our Services not being
- available due to any circumstances. If we modify or terminate our
- services, we may give you the opportunity to recover your funds.
- However, given the experimental state of the Services today, this
- may not be possible. You are strongly advised to limit your use
- of the Service to small-scale experiments expecting total loss of
- all funds.
-
-These terms outline approved uses of our Services. The Services and
-these Terms are still at an experimental stage. If you have any
-questions or comments related to this Agreement, please send us a
-message to ice@bfh.ch. If you do not agree to this Agreement, you must
-not use our Services.
-
-
-How you accept this policy
-==========================
-
-By sending funds to us (to top-up your Taler Wallet), you acknowledge
-that you have read, understood, and agreed to these Terms. We reserve
-the right to change these Terms at any time. If you disagree with the
-change, we may in the future offer you with an easy option to recover
-your unspent funds. However, in the current experimental period you
-acknowledge that this feature is not yet available, resulting in your
-funds being lost unless you accept the new Terms. If you continue to
-use our Services other than to recover your unspent funds, your
-continued use of our Services following any such change will signify
-your acceptance to be bound by the then current Terms. Please check
-the effective date above to determine if there have been any changes
-since you have last reviewed these Terms.
-
-
-Services
-========
-
-We will try to transfer funds that we receive from users to any legal
-recipient to the best of our ability and within the limitations of the
-law. However, the Services offered today are highly experimental and
-the set of recipients of funds is severely restricted. The Taler
-Wallet can be loaded by exchanging fiat or cryptocurrencies against
-electronic coins. We are providing this exchange service. Once your
-Taler Wallet is loaded with electronic coins they can be spent for
-purchases if the seller is accepting Taler as a means of payment. We
-are not guaranteeing that any seller is accepting Taler at all or a
-particular seller. The seller or recipient of deposits of electronic
-coins must specify the target account, as per the design of the Taler
-protocol. They are responsible for following the protocol and
-specifying the correct bank account, and are solely liable for any
-losses that may arise from specifying the wrong account. We may allow
-the government to link wire transfers to the underlying contract hash.
-It is the responsibility of recipients to preserve the full contracts
-and to pay whatever taxes and charges may be applicable. Technical
-issues may lead to situations where we are unable to make transfers at
-all or lead to incorrect transfers that cannot be reversed. We may
-refuse to execute transfers if the transfers are prohibited by a
-competent legal authority and we are ordered to do so.
-
-When using our Services, you agree to not take any action that
-intentionally imposes an unreasonable load on our infrastructure. If
-you find security problems in our Services, you agree to first report
-them to security@taler-systems.com and grant us the right to publish
-your report. We warrant that we will ourselves publicly disclose any
-issues reported within 3 months, and that we will not prosecute anyone
-reporting security issues if they did not exploit the issue beyond a
-proof-of-concept, and followed the above responsible disclosure
-practice.
-
-
-Fees
-====
-
-You agree to pay the fees for exchanges and withdrawals completed via
-the Taler Wallet ("Fees") as defined by us, which we may change from
-time to time. With the exception of wire transfer fees, Taler
-transaction fees are set for any electronic coin at the time of
-withdrawal and fixed throughout the validity period of the respective
-electronic coin. Your wallet should obtain and display applicable fees
-when withdrawing funds. Fees for coins obtained as change may differ
-from the fees applicable to the original coin. Wire transfer fees that
-are independent from electronic coins may change annually. You
-authorize us to charge or deduct applicable fees owed in connection
-with deposits, exchanges and withdrawals following the rules of the
-Taler protocol. We reserve the right to provide different types of
-rewards to users either in the form of discount for our Services or in
-any other form at our discretion and without prior notice to you.
-

-and confidentiality of the data stored in your wallet. When you setup
-a Taler Wallet, you are strongly advised to follow the precautionary

-any loss or damage arising from your failure to comply with this
-paragraph.

-theory, for:
-
-1. any lost profits, data loss, cost of procurement of substitute

- <paragraph>Welcome! The ICE research center of the Bern University of Applied Sciences
- in Switzerland (“we,” “our,” or “us”) provides an experimental payment service
- through our Internet presence (collectively the “Services”). Before using our
- Services, please read the Terms of Service (the “Terms” or the “Agreement”)

- <title>This is research</title>
- <paragraph>This is a research experiment. Any funds wired to our Bitcoin address are
- considered a donation to our research group. We may use them to enable
- payments following the GNU Taler protocol, or simply keep them at our
- discretion. The service is experimental and may also be discontinued at
- any time, in which case all remaining funds will definitively be kept by
- the research group.</paragraph>

- and specifying the correct bank account, and are solely liable for any losses
- that may arise from specifying the wrong account. We may allow the government
- to link wire transfers to the underlying contract hash. It is the
- responsibility of recipients to preserve the full contracts and to pay

+Terms Of Service
+****************
+
+Last Updated: 12.4.2019
+
+Welcome! Taler Systems SA (“we,” “our,” or “us”) provides a payment
+service through our Internet presence (collectively the “Services”).
+Before using our Services, please read the Terms of Service (the
+“Terms” or the “Agreement”) carefully.
+
+
+Overview
+========
+
+This section provides a brief summary of the highlights of this
+Agreement. Please note that when you accept this Agreement, you are
+accepting all of the terms and conditions and not just this section.
+We and possibly other third parties provide Internet services which
+interact with the Taler Wallet’s self-hosted personal payment
+application. When using the Taler Wallet to interact with our
+Services, you are agreeing to our Terms, so please read carefully.
+
+
+Highlights:
+-----------
+
+ * You are responsible for keeping the data in your Taler Wallet at
+ all times under your control. Any losses arising from you not
+ being in control of your private information are your problem.
+
+ * We will try to transfer funds we hold in escrow for our users to
+ any legal recipient to the best of our ability within the
+ limitations of the law and our implementation. However, the
+ Services offered today are highly experimental and the set of
+ recipients of funds is severely restricted.
+
+ * For our Services, we may charge transaction fees. The specific
+ fee structure is provided based on the Taler protocol and should
+ be shown to you when you withdraw electronic coins using a Taler
+ Wallet. You agree and understand that the Taler protocol allows
+ for the fee structure to change.
+
+ * You agree to not intentionally overwhelm our systems with
+ requests and follow responsible disclosure if you find security
+ issues in our services.
+
+ * We cannot be held accountable for our Services not being
+ available due to circumstances beyond our control. If we modify
+ or terminate our services, we will try to give you the
+ opportunity to recover your funds. However, given the
+ experimental state of the Services today, this may not be
+ possible. You are strongly advised to limit your use of the
+ Service to small-scale experiments expecting total loss of all
+ funds.
+
+These terms outline approved uses of our Services. The Services and
+these Terms are still at an experimental stage. If you have any
+questions or comments related to this Agreement, please send us a
+message to legal@taler-systems.com. If you do not agree to this
+Agreement, you must not use our Services.
+
+
+How you accept this policy
+==========================
+
+By sending funds to us (to top-up your Taler Wallet), you acknowledge
+that you have read, understood, and agreed to these Terms. We reserve
+the right to change these Terms at any time. If you disagree with the
+change, we may in the future offer you with an easy option to recover
+your unspent funds. However, in the current experimental period you
+acknowledge that this feature is not yet available, resulting in your
+funds being lost unless you accept the new Terms. If you continue to
+use our Services other than to recover your unspent funds, your
+continued use of our Services following any such change will signify
+your acceptance to be bound by the then current Terms. Please check
+the effective date above to determine if there have been any changes
+since you have last reviewed these Terms.
+
+
+Services
+========
+
+We will try to transfer funds that we hold in escrow for our users to
+any legal recipient to the best of our ability and within the
+limitations of the law and our implementation. However, the Services
+offered today are highly experimental and the set of recipients of
+funds is severely restricted. The Taler Wallet can be loaded by
+exchanging fiat currencies against electronic coins. We are providing
+this exchange service. Once your Taler Wallet is loaded with
+electronic coins they can be spent for purchases if the seller is
+accepting Taler as a means of payment. We are not guaranteeing that
+any seller is accepting Taler at all or a particular seller. The
+seller or recipient of deposits of electronic coins must specify the
+target account, as per the design of the Taler protocol. They are
+responsible for following the protocol and specifying the correct bank
+account, and are solely liable for any losses that may arise from
+specifying the wrong account. We will allow the government to link
+wire transfers to the underlying contract hash. It is the
+responsibility of recipients to preserve the full contracts and to pay
+whatever taxes and charges may be applicable. Technical issues may
+lead to situations where we are unable to make transfers at all or
+lead to incorrect transfers that cannot be reversed. We will only
+refuse to execute transfers if the transfers are prohibited by a
+competent legal authority and we are ordered to do so.
+
+When using our Services, you agree to not take any action that
+intentionally imposes an unreasonable load on our infrastructure. If
+you find security problems in our Services, you agree to first report
+them to security@taler-systems.com and grant us the right to publish
+your report. We warrant that we will ourselves publicly disclose any
+issues reported within 3 months, and that we will not prosecute anyone
+reporting security issues if they did not exploit the issue beyond a
+proof-of-concept, and followed the above responsible disclosure
+practice.
+
+
+Fees
+====
+
+You agree to pay the fees for exchanges and withdrawals completed via
+the Taler Wallet ("Fees") as defined by us, which we may change from
+time to time. With the exception of wire transfer fees, Taler
+transaction fees are set for any electronic coin at the time of
+withdrawal and fixed throughout the validity period of the respective
+electronic coin. Your wallet should obtain and display applicable fees
+when withdrawing funds. Fees for coins obtained as change may differ
+from the fees applicable to the original coin. Wire transfer fees that
+are independent from electronic coins may change annually. You
+authorize us to charge or deduct applicable fees owed in connection
+with deposits, exchanges and withdrawals following the rules of the
+Taler protocol. We reserve the right to provide different types of
+rewards to users either in the form of discount for our Services or in
+any other form at our discretion and without prior notice to you.
+
+
+Eligibility and Financial self-responsibility
+=============================================
+
+To be eligible to use our Services, you must be able to form legally
+binding contracts or have the permission of your legal guardian. By
+using our Services, you represent and warrant that you meet all
+eligibility requirements that we outline in these Terms.
+
+You will be responsible for maintaining the availability, integrity
+and confidentiality of the data stored in your wallet. When you setup
+a Taler Wallet, you are strongly advised to follow the precautionary
+measures offered by the software to minimize the chances to losse
+access to or control over your Wallet data. We will not be liable for
+any loss or damage arising from your failure to comply with this
+paragraph.
+
+
+Copyrights and trademarks
+=========================
+
+The Taler Wallet is released under the terms of the GNU General Public
+License (GNU GPL). You have the right to access, use, and share the
+Taler Wallet, in modified or unmodified form. However, the GPL is a
+strong copyleft license, which means that any derivative works must be

+itself is a trademark of Taler Systems SA. You are welcome to use the
+name in relation to processing payments using the Taler protocol,
+assuming your use is compatible with an official release from the GNU
+Project that is not older than two years.

+

+take any action regarding: Failures, disruptions, errors, or delays in
+processing that you may experience while using our Services; The risk

+of malicious software being introduced or found in the software
+underlying the Taler Wallet; The risk that third parties may obtain
+unauthorized access to information stored within your Taler Wallet,

+losses, damages, or claims arising from:
+
+1. user error such as forgotten passwords, incorrectly constructed
+ transactions;
+
+2. server failure or data loss;
+
+3. unauthorized access to the Taler Wallet application;
+

+ concerning any Third Party Content contained in or accessed through
+ our Services.
+
+Any other terms, conditions, warranties, or representations associated
+with such content, are solely between you and such organizations
+and/or individuals.
+
+To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, in no event will we
+or any of our officers, directors, representatives, agents, servants,
+counsel, employees, consultants, lawyers, and other personnel
+authorized to act, acting, or purporting to act on our behalf
+(collectively the “Taler Parties”) be liable to you under contract,
+tort, strict liability, negligence, or any other legal or equitable
+theory, for:
+
+1. any lost profits, data loss, cost of procurement of substitute
+ goods or services, or direct, indirect, incidental, special,
+ punitive, compensatory, or consequential damages of any kind
+ whatsoever resulting from:
+
+ 1. your use of, or conduct in connection with, our services;
+
+ 2. any unauthorized use of your wallet and/or private key due to
+ your failure to maintain the confidentiality of your wallet;
+
+ 3. any interruption or cessation of transmission to or from the
+ services; or
+
+ 4. any bugs, viruses, trojan horses, or the like that are found in
+ the Taler Wallet software or that may be transmitted to or
+ through our services by any third party (regardless of the
+ source of origination), or
+
+2. any direct damages.
+
+These limitations apply regardless of legal theory, whether based on
+tort, strict liability, breach of contract, breach of warranty, or any
+other legal theory, and whether or not we were advised of the
+possibility of such damages. Some jurisdictions do not allow the
+exclusion or limitation of liability for consequential or incidental
+damages, so the above limitation may not apply to you.
+
+Our services are provided "as is" and without warranty of any kind. To
+the maximum extent permitted by law, we disclaim all representations
+and warranties, express or implied, relating to the services and
+underlying software or any content on the services, whether provided
+or owned by us or by any third party, including without limitation,
+warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose,
+title, non-infringement, freedom from computer virus, and any implied
+warranties arising from course of dealing, course of performance, or
+usage in trade, all of which are expressly disclaimed. In addition, we
+do not represent or warrant that the content accessible via the
+services is accurate, complete, available, current, free of viruses or
+other harmful components, or that the results of using the services
+will meet your requirements. Some states do not allow the disclaimer
+of implied warranties, so the foregoing disclaimers may not apply to
+you. This paragraph gives you specific legal rights and you may also
+have other legal rights that vary from state to state.
+
+
+Indemnity and Time limitation on claims and Termination
+=======================================================
+
+To the extent permitted by applicable law, you agree to defend,
+indemnify, and hold harmless the Taler Parties from and against any
+and all claims, damages, obligations, losses, liabilities, costs or

+ <paragraph>We will try to transfer funds that we hold in escrow for our users to any
+ legal recipient to the best of our ability and within the limitations of the
+ law and our implementation. However, the Services offered today are highly
+ experimental and the set of recipients of funds is severely restricted. The
+ Taler Wallet can be loaded by exchanging fiat currencies against electronic
+ coins. We are providing this exchange service. Once your Taler Wallet is
+ loaded with electronic coins they can be spent for purchases if the seller is
+ accepting Taler as a means of payment. We are not guaranteeing that any seller
+ is accepting Taler at all or a particular seller. The seller or recipient of
+ deposits of electronic coins must specify the target account, as per the
+ design of the Taler protocol. They are responsible for following the protocol
+ and specifying the correct bank account, and are solely liable for any losses
+ that may arise from specifying the wrong account. We will allow the government
+ to link wire transfers to the underlying contract hash. It is the
+ responsibility of recipients to preserve the full contracts and to pay
+ whatever taxes and charges may be applicable. Technical issues may lead to
+ situations where we are unable to make transfers at all or lead to incorrect
+ transfers that cannot be reversed. We will only refuse to execute transfers if
+ the transfers are prohibited by a competent legal authority and we are ordered
+ to do so.</paragraph>
+ <paragraph>When using our Services, you agree to not take any action that intentionally
+ imposes an unreasonable load on our infrastructure. If you find security
+ problems in our Services, you agree to first report them to
+ <reference refuri="mailto:security@taler-systems.com">security@taler-systems.com</reference> and grant us the right to publish your report. We
+ warrant that we will ourselves publicly disclose any issues reported within 3
+ months, and that we will not prosecute anyone reporting security issues if
+ they did not exploit the issue beyond a proof-of-concept, and followed the
+ above responsible disclosure practice.</paragraph>

+ <paragraph>You agree to pay the fees for exchanges and withdrawals completed via the

+ time. With the exception of wire transfer fees, Taler transaction fees are set
+ for any electronic coin at the time of withdrawal and fixed throughout the
+ validity period of the respective electronic coin. Your wallet should obtain
+ and display applicable fees when withdrawing funds. Fees for coins obtained as
+ change may differ from the fees applicable to the original coin. Wire transfer
+ fees that are independent from electronic coins may change annually. You
+ authorize us to charge or deduct applicable fees owed in connection with
+ deposits, exchanges and withdrawals following the rules of the Taler protocol.
+ We reserve the right to provide different types of rewards to users either in
+ the form of discount for our Services or in any other form at our discretion
