  1. 1. ACCEPTANCE.

    Upon accessing the PLATFORM, the USER acknowledges that PAYPAGA is granting them a temporary, limited, non-exclusive, non-sublicensable, revocable, and non-transferable license as described below.

    The USER, concerning the PLATFORM, agrees that the use thereof is at their own risk, concerning the services and/or products provided therein.

    The PLATFORM, including but not limited to all content such as, by way of illustration and not limitation, texts, photographs, illustrations, graphics, videos, audio, designs, codes, data, and any other information, is the sole and exclusive property of PAYPAGA, without waiver of any copyright, trademark rights, patent rights, database rights, moral rights, and other intellectual property and proprietary rights, regulated and protected by the Federal Law of Copyright, the Federal Law of Industrial Property Protection, as well as any other legislation on Intellectual Property applicable.

    The use of the PLATFORM does not grant the USER ownership of the PLATFORM or its content at any time, nor does it grant a license for their exploitation. Therefore, the USER acknowledges that they do not acquire any ownership rights by downloading any copyrighted material related to the Services.

    The distinctive signs, including trademarks and trade notices, as well as other content displayed in the Services, shall at all times be the property of PAYPAGA, whether registered or not, and may not be used by the USER without express written consent from PAYPAGA.

    The USER acknowledges, accepts, and understands that in order to use the PLATFORM, they must have a computer system with minimum operational characteristics for the execution of the PLATFORM, which must be obtained and paid for by themselves. They are also responsible for any damage that may occur, including damage caused by computer viruses or communication pathways, and, in general, any other type of loss, harm, destruction, or deterioration that the USER may suffer due to the use of such computer equipment in connection with the use of the PLATFORM.

    The Services are only available to individuals with legal capacity to contract. Therefore, individuals lacking this characteristic or minors cannot use the services. The USER declares and guarantees, under penalty of perjury, that if a natural person, they are of legal age, a Mexican resident, have a domicile or establishment in the United Mexican States, and have the necessary legal capacity to perform the activities contained on the Site.

  2. 2. REGISTRATION AND PERSONAL DATA.

    The USER affirms, under penalty of perjury, that all information and documentation provided and/or to be provided in relation to any activity promoted on the Site is true, complete, and correct. Consequently, they are obligated to indemnify and hold PAYPAGA harmless from any damage, harm, demand, and/or action caused by such omission or falsehood.

    PAYPAGA may use various means to identify its USERS, but PAYPAGA is not responsible for the accuracy of the Personal Data provided by its USERS. PAYPAGA reserves the right to request additional proof and/or data to verify the Personal Data and to temporarily or permanently suspend those USERS whose data could not be confirmed.

    To access and use the Products and Services, the USER must register on the PLATFORM by completing the forms provided by PAYPAGA for this purpose, with the requested personal data, which may include, but is not limited to: (i) full name or business name, (ii) address (street, exterior and interior number, postal code, neighborhood, political demarcation, state, country), (iii) position held in the company, (iv) email address, (v) password, (vi) cell phone number, (vii) social media profiles, among others, in order to subsequently generate user IDs, passwords, authentication factors for the use and responsibility of the USER.

    For access to the USER's Account, PAYPAGA will provide and validate an access password, which will be considered an identifying and enabling element to access the services of the PLATFORM.

    The password will be personal and non-transferable, so the "USER" agrees to maintain the confidentiality of their access password, assuming the consequences that may arise from its use by third parties other than the "USER", and must hold PAYPAGA harmless for any unauthorized use of the password. The "USER" will be responsible for all operations carried out with their password. It is prohibited for the same USER to have more than one Account. In case PAYPAGA detects Accounts containing related or matching data, it may cancel or disable them. PAYPAGA reserves the right to reject any registration request or to cancel a previously accepted registration, without being obliged to communicate or explain the reasons for its decision, and without generating any right to compensation or redress.

Similarly, the USER recognizes that PAYPAGA employs appropriate physical, technological, and administrative procedures to prevent unauthorized access and disclosure, maintain data accuracy, and ensure proper use of the information.

    The USER may request the exercise of their ARCO rights or the revocation or limitation of their personal data through the PORTAL and the ARCO Rights Request Form, as indicated in the Privacy Notice. The USER acknowledges that it is their obligation to refrain from using, accessing, extracting, selling, renting, and/or transferring personal data, sensitive personal data, and patrimonial data that they may come to know due to the service or services contracted in this T&Cs agreement. The USER will hold PAYPAGA harmless for any sanctions or fines that the latter may be subject to due to the misuse of personal data of its USERS.

PAYPAGA, for any notification, will use the most recent data provided by the USER in the PLATFORM. Therefore, in the event of an omission in such notification, the USER absolves PAYPAGA of any responsibility regarding the provision of Services.

    If there is a loss, theft, or compromise of authentication factors, access keys, and/or passwords in general, the USER must immediately communicate this to PAYPAGA through the PLATFORM. It is understood that under no circumstances will PAYPAGA be liable for charges, transactions, and/or authorizations made prior to the report of theft or loss, even if conducted by a third party.

Operations pending execution due to not being carried out within the previously established days and hours will take effect on the following Business Day when executed, provided there is no impediment to their execution.

    The USER acknowledges and accepts that PAYPAGA will not be liable if, due to fortuitous events, force majeure, lack or interruption of connectivity, PLATFORM failures, or any other cause beyond PAYPAGA's control, access to the PLATFORM becomes unavailable.

The system may occasionally be unavailable due to technical difficulties, Internet failures, or any other circumstances beyond PAYPAGA's control. In such cases, efforts will be made to restore services as quickly as possible, without incurring any liability on the part of PAYPAGA. PAYPAGA shall not be liable for any errors or omissions contained on its website.

  12. 13. INDEMNIFICATION.

    The USER shall indemnify PAYPAGA, its affiliates, related companies, directors, administrators, representatives, employees, suppliers, vendors, and advisors for any action, demand, or claim arising from any breach by the USER of these T&Cs, including, without limitation: i) Any aspect related to the use of the www.PAYPAGA.com platform; ii) The information contained or available on or through said site or any libel, defamation, or any other conduct violating this document by the USER in using the mentioned PLATFORM; iii) Violation of applicable laws or international treaties regarding intellectual property rights, content, or available through said website.

  14. 15. TERM AND GRACE PERIOD.

    The term of these T&Cs will be one year from the signing date. After the Contract's term, it will automatically be renewed for equal successive periods unless either PARTY communicates in writing its intention to terminate it. Even after the Contract's termination, the USER remains obliged to fully comply with all payment obligations derived from it.

    The USER will have a ten-business-day period after signing the Contract to cancel it without any responsibility, in which case PAYPAGA cannot charge any commission since the USER has not used or operated the contracted products. A cancellation request through the PLATFORM will suffice. This cancellation will be valid as long as the USER has not used the services.

  15. 16. TERMINATION AND EARLY MATURITY.

    1. a) Early Termination

      The USER may request at any time the early termination of these T&Cs from PAYPAGA through a request delivered via the channels established within the PLATFORM or to the email [email protected]. PAYPAGA will acknowledge receipt and provide a progressive number indicating the attention to the request, ensuring the authenticity of the USER's identity.

      As a result, PAYPAGA will terminate the commercial relationship with the USER on the next business day, provided that the debts and commissions charged up to that date are settled. PAYPAGA must provide the USER with an acknowledgment or confirmation code for cancellation, waiving both parties any residual charges that may persist after the cancellation.

      If the USER still has debts with PAYPAGA, to proceed with the termination of the commercial relationship, they must settle the outstanding amount within 10 (ten) business days from the date of receiving the corresponding notice from PAYPAGA.

      During the term of these T&Cs, the USER will pay PAYPAGA for damages resulting from the improper use of the PLATFORM. Upon early termination, PAYPAGA will not process requests for new registrations of those USERS, nor will it provide any other services to them.

    2. b) Early Maturity

      PAYPAGA may declare the Contract matured early, without any liability, by notifying the USER in writing through the email indicated by the USER in the Carátula, and without requiring judicial declaration, if the USER incurs in any of the following events:

      2. If any information or data provided by the USER in their identification forms or any other document turns out to be false;
      3. If within 5 (five) days following the date of any change in the information contained in the mentioned forms or any other document delivered to PAYPAGA, the USER fails to notify PAYPAGA of such change in writing and it significantly affects the conditions for providing the service;
      4. If the USER fails to comply with or observe any terms, agreements, or covenants within this document;
      5. If any event or condition arises, at PAYPAGA's sole discretion, giving reasonable grounds to believe that the USER will not be able to fulfill their obligations under these T&Cs.
