Terms of Use

1. Scope of application

1.1 - Unit Numberfive oHG, Brehmweg 3, 22527 Hamburg, Germany, operates a software for Mac, iPhone, iPad and Apple Watch called "Tyme" (hereinafter referred to as "TYME"). TYME is an app for time recording, workload and billing that addresses both adult consumers and entrepreneurs.

1.2 - The consumer is any natural person who acquires TYME for a purpose that is predominantly not attributable to his commercial or self-employed professional activity. Entrepreneur is any natural or legal person or partnership with legal capacity who, when concluding the contract, acts in the exercise of their commercial or self-employed professional activity.

1.3 - The present General Terms and Conditions of Business are an integral part of the contract and apply to all business relations between Unit Numberfive oHG and the TYME users, including future business relations. The terms and conditions are accepted by you in their entirety in the version valid at the time of the conclusion of the contract. Any regulations deviating from these terms and conditions, in particular your possible terms and conditions are hereby contradicted.

2. Description of services and conclusion of contract

TYME is only available from the Apple App Store or Apple Mac App Store. To download TYME, you must register with Apple or log in to the Apple App Store or Apple Mac App Store using your existing Apple ID. You can then download TYME free of charge to your mobile device (Mac, iPhone, iPad, Apple Watch).

TYME can be tested free of charge by users with different functionalities (trial period) and can be used for a fee as a standalone application or with others in a team. TYME users can choose between the various offers within the app.

Free Trial

To fully test TYME, you can make a trial subscription. The trial subscription period is 14 days. The trial subscription automatically converts to a paid subscription after the trial period if it is not cancelled 24 hours before the end of the trial period.

Single User

The use of TYME as a single-user is subject to a fee. You can purchase TYME within the app as part of an "In-App purchase". With a purchase of TYME a contract between Unit Numberfive oHG and you is made. However, the purchase and payment process will be handled by Apple to the customer, including Apple's terms of use. These Terms of Use can be accessed at any time at https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/us/terms.html

Teams

With the paid Team version several TYME users have the possibility to record their times together. To set up a team, a team member (so-called "Team Admin") completes a subscription to the desired Tyme version within the TYME app as part of an "in-app purchase". All other team members only need to download TYME free of charge from the Apple App Store or Mac App Store.

The contract conclusion and all payment transactions within the subscription period will also be handled by Apple for the team admin, including Apple's terms of use. The versions for the single-user version (see above) apply accordingly.

The team admin can invite other TYME users to join the team after signing a Tyme subscription. TYME sends an invitation by e-mail to the potential team members selected by the team admin. This invitation contains a confirmation link that allows TYME users to click on a link to join a team and then record and settle times together with the other team members.

4. Duration and cancellation of the Tyme subscription

4.1 - Tyme subscription contracts are initially concluded for the selected period (1 month or 1 year).
