The Service is owned or controlled by Anymate ApS (“Anymate”). These Terms of Use affect your legal rights and obligations. If you do not agree to be bound by all of these Terms of Use, do not access or use the Service.

There may be times when we offer a special feature that has its own terms and conditions that apply in addition to these Terms of Use. In those cases, the terms specific to the special feature control to the extent there is a conflict with these Terms of Use.

You understand and agree that Anymate cannot and will not be responsible for the Content posted on the Service and you use the Service at your own risk. If you violate the letter or spirit of these Terms of Use, or otherwise create risk or possible legal exposure for Anymate, we can stop providing all or part of the Service to you.

General Conditions

  1. We reserve the right to modify or terminate the Service or your access to the Service for any reason, without notice, at any time, and without liability to you. You can deactivate your Anymate account by sending a de-activation request to support@Anymate.io. If we terminate your access to the Service or you send us a de-activation request, data will no longer be accessible through your account, but those data may persist and appear within the Service in anonymised form.
  2. Upon termination, all licenses and other rights granted to you in these Terms of Use will immediately cease.
  3. We reserve the right, in our sole discretion, to change these Terms of Use (“Updated Terms”) from time to time. Unless we make a change for legal or administrative reasons, we will provide reasonable advance notice before the Updated Terms become effective. You agree that we may notify you of the Updated Terms by posting them on the Service, and that your use of the Service after the effective date of the Updated Terms (or engaging in such other conduct as we may reasonably specify) constitutes your agreement to the Updated Terms. Therefore, you should review these Terms of Use and any Updated Terms before using the Service. The Updated Terms will be effective as of the time of posting, or such later date as may be specified in the Updated Terms, and will apply to your use of the Service from that point forward. These Terms of Use will govern any disputes arising before the effective date of the Updated Terms.
  4. We reserve the right to refuse access to the Service to anyone for any reason at any time.
  5. We reserve the right to force forfeiture of any username for any reason.

  7. You are solely responsible for your interaction with other users of the Service, whether online or offline. You agree that Anymate is not responsible or liable for the conduct of any user. Anymate reserves the right, but has no obligation, to monitor or become involved in disputes between you and other users. Exercise common sense and your best judgment when interacting with others, including when you submit or post Content or any personal or other information.
  8. There may be links from the Service, or from communications you receive from the Service, to third-party web sites or features. Functionality on the Service may also permit interactions between the Service and a third-party web site or feature, including applications that connect the Service or your organization on the Service with a third-party web site or feature. For example, the Service may include a feature that enables you to share Content from the Service or your Content with a third party, which may be posted on that third party’s service or application. Using this functionality typically requires you to login to your account on the third-party service and you do so at your own risk. Anymate does not control any of these third-party web services or any of their content. You expressly acknowledge and agree that Anymate is in no way responsible or liable for any such third-party services or features. YOUR CORRESPONDENCE AND BUSINESS DEALINGS WITH THIRD PARTIES FOUND THROUGH THE SERVICE ARE SOLELY BETWEEN YOU AND THE THIRD PARTY. You may choose, at your sole and absolute discretion and risk, to use applications that connect the Service or your organization on the Service with a third-party service (each, an “Application”) and such Application may interact with, connect to or gather and/or pull information from and to your Service organization. By using such Applications, you acknowledge and agree to the following: (i) if you use an Application to share information, you are consenting to information about your organization on the Service being shared; (ii) your use of an Application may cause personally identifying information to be publicly disclosed and/or associated with you, even if Anymate has not itself provided such information; and (iii) your use of an Application is at your own option and risk, and you will hold the Anymate Parties (defined below) harmless for activity related to the Application.

Data Processing Instruction

By accepting these terms and creating an organization on the Anymate.io and/or Anymate.app website you are instructing the service to process the HR and leave-related information that you and your employees provide to the service. You can withdraw that instruction at any time by contacting us at support@Anymate.io to have your account closed down. Furthermore, after you have signed up, you can download a Data Processing Agreement here between yourself and the service in compliance with the GDPR. In case of any contradictory terms, that agreement takes precedence over these general terms. You can read more about the GDPR and see an example DPA in this knowledge base article

Rights

Anymate does not claim ownership of any Content that you post on or through the Service. Instead, you hereby grant to Anymate a non-exclusive, fully paid and royalty-free, transferable, sub-licensable, worldwide license to use the Content that you post on or through the Service, subject to the Service’s Privacy Policy, available here

  1. Some of the Service may be supported by advertising revenue and may display advertisements and promotions, and you hereby agree that Anymate may place such advertising and promotions on the Service or on, about, or in conjunction with your Content.

  2. You acknowledge that we may not always identify paid services, sponsored content, or commercial communications as such.
  3. The Service contains content owned or licensed by Anymate (“Anymate Content”). Anymate Content is protected by copyright, trademark, patent, trade secret and other laws, and, as between you and Anymate, Anymate owns and retains all rights in the Anymate Content and the Service.

In addition, all page headers, custom graphics, button icons and scripts are service marks, trademarks and/or trade dress of Anymate, and may not be copied, imitated or used, in whole or in part, without prior written permission from Anymate.
  5. Although it is Anymate’s intention for the Service to be available as much as possible, there will be occasions when the Service may be interrupted, including, without limitation, for scheduled maintenance or upgrades, for emergency repairs, or due to failure of telecommunications links and/or equipment. Also, Anymate reserves the right to remove any Content from the Service for any reason, without prior notice. Content removed from the Service may continue to be stored by Anymate, including, without limitation, in order to comply with certain legal obligations, but may not be retrievable without a valid court order. Consequently, Anymate encourages you to maintain your own backup of your Content. In other words, Anymate is not a backup service and you agree that you will not rely on the Service for the purposes of Content backup or storage. Anymate will not be liable to you for any modification, suspension, or discontinuation of the Services, or the loss of any Content. You also acknowledge that the Internet may be subject to breaches of security and that the submission of Content or other information may not be secure.
  6. You agree that Anymate is not responsible for, and does not endorse, Content posted within the Service. Anymate does not have any obligation to prescreen, monitor, edit, or remove any Content. If your Content violates these Terms of Use, you may bear legal responsibility for that Content.
  7. It is Anymate’s policy not to accept or consider content, information, ideas, suggestions or other materials other than those we have specifically requested and to which certain specific terms, conditions and requirements may apply. This is to avoid any misunderstandings if your ideas are similar to those we have developed or are developing independently. Accordingly, Anymate does not accept unsolicited materials or ideas, and takes no responsibility for any materials or ideas so transmitted. If, despite our policy, you choose to send us content, information, ideas, suggestions, or other materials, you further agree that Anymate is free to use any such content, information, ideas, suggestions or other materials, for any purposes whatsoever, including, without limitation, developing and marketing products and services, without any liability or payment of any kind to you.

You (and also any third party for whom you operate an account or activity on the Service) agree to defend (at Anymate’s request), indemnify and hold the Anymate Parties harmless from and against any claims, liabilities, damages, losses, and expenses, including without limitation, reasonable attorney’s fees and costs, arising out of or in any way connected with any of the following (including as a result of your direct activities on the Service or those conducted on your behalf): (i) your Content or your access to or use of the Service; (ii) your breach or alleged breach of these Terms of Use; (iii) your violation of any third-party right, including without limitation, any intellectual property right, publicity, confidentiality, property or privacy right; (iv) your violation of any laws, rules, regulations, codes, statutes, ordinances or orders of any governmental and quasi-governmental authorities, including, without limitation, all regulatory, administrative and legislative authorities; or (v) any misrepresentation made by you.

Time Limitation on Claims

You agree that any claim you may have arising out of or related to your relationship with Anymate must be filed within one year after such claim arose; otherwise, your claim is permanently barred.

Governing Law & Venue

These Terms of Use are governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of Denmark, without giving effect to any principles of conflicts of law. For any action at law, you agree to resolve any dispute you have with Anymate exclusively in the jurisdiction and venue in the courts located in Denmark.

If any provision of these Terms of Use is held to be unlawful, void, or for any reason unenforceable during arbitration or by a court of competent jurisdiction, then that provision will be deemed severable from these Terms of Use and will not affect the validity and enforceability of any remaining provisions. Anymate’s failure to insist upon or enforce strict performance of any provision of these Terms will not be construed as a waiver of any provision or right. No waiver of any of these Terms will be deemed a further or continuing waiver of such term or condition or any other term or condition. Anymate reserves the right to change this dispute resolution provision, but any such changes will not apply to disputes arising before the effective date of the amendment. This dispute resolution provision will survive the termination of any or all of your transactions with Anymate.

Entire Agreement

If you are using the Service on behalf of a legal entity, you represent that you are authorized to enter into an agreement on behalf of that legal entity. These Terms of Use constitute the entire agreement between you and Anymate and governs your use of the Service, superseding any prior agreements between you and Anymate. You will not assign the Terms of Use or assign any rights or delegate any obligations hereunder, in whole or in part, whether voluntarily or by operation of law, without the prior written consent of Anymate. Any purported assignment or delegation by you without the appropriate prior written consent of Anymate will be null and void. Anymate may assign these Terms of Use or any rights hereunder without your consent. If any provision of these Terms of Use is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid or otherwise unenforceable, the parties nevertheless agree that such portion will be deemed severable from these Terms of Use and will not affect the validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions, and the remaining provisions of the Terms of Use remain in full force and effect. Neither the course of conduct between the parties nor trade practice will act to modify the Terms of Use. These Terms of Use do not confer any third-party beneficiary rights.

Territorial Restrictions

The information provided within the Service is not intended for distribution to or use by any person or entity in any jurisdiction or country where such distribution or use would be contrary to law or regulation or which would subject Anymate to any registration requirement within such jurisdiction or country. We reserve the right to limit the availability of the Service or any portion of the Service, to any person, geographic area, or jurisdiction, at any time and in our sole discretion, and to limit the quantities of any content, program, product, service or other feature that Anymate provides.

The effective date of these Terms of Use is May 1, 2019. These Terms of Use were written in English (US). To the extent any translated version of these Terms of Use conflicts with the English version, the English version controls.
