When using the Service, member stores are required to agree to these Terms. Please make sure to read these Terms in their entirety and confirm the subject matter of these Terms.

Account

A dedicated account is required for using the Service. The account will be created by the member store and approved and issued by Toreta. Please do not inform the account or password of the Service to a third party. The member store is independently responsible for the acts that are conducted on or through Toreta’s account. Please refrain from reusing the password of the account in the service or application of a third party. Toreta will not be liable for any loss or damage arising as a result of the member store failing to secure the safety of the account. Furthermore, if the member store discovers any unauthorized use of the account, the member store is recommended to immediately change the password.

Use of Service

Before using the Service, Toreta and the member store will execute an application form (“Application Form”) which prescribes the effective term, fee and other necessary matters. As a result of executing the Application Form, an individual license agreement (“License Agreement”) according to the various provisions of these Terms will be concluded between Toreta and the member store. iPad or other terminal devices, communication line and other communication environment required for receiving the Service shall be prepared and maintained by the member store under its own cost burden and responsibility; save for cases where a separate agreement has been reached between Toreta and the member store.

The following acts are prohibited: (1) obstruction of the Service or access to the Service according to a method other than based on the application provided by Toreta and procedures prescribed by Toreta; (2) a party engaged in a business in competition with Toreta creating and using an account; (3) allowing a party engaged in a business in competition with Toreta or any other third party to use the account or password of the Service; (4) act that is in violation of laws; and (5) act that infringes upon the intellectual property rights of a third party. In addition to the above, if the member store fails to observe the terms and policies of Toreta, if Toreta will conduct an investigation regarding acts that are suspected of being illegal, or if Toreta determines that an act conducted by the member store is illegal or corresponds to a prohibited act, Toreta may temporarily suspend or discontinue the provision of the Service to the member store or the user.

Service Fee

As consideration for using the Service, the member store shall pay to Toreta the monthly usage fee indicated in the Application Form and the SMS transmission/FAX transmission cost. The member store shall pay the monthly usage fee and the SMS transmission/FAX transmission cost by the payment date indicated in the Application Form according to the method designated by Toreta. Bank charges and other fees required for the payment shall be borne by the member store. If the member store neglects to make payment, the member store must pay to Toreta a delinquency charge at a rate of 10% per annum (prorated with 1 year being 365 days). The effective term of the License Agreement shall be a period of one (1) year from the date of application indicated in the Application Form; provided, however, that, if the member store does not declare its intent of not renewing the License Agreement at least one (1) month prior to the expiration of the effective term of the License Agreement, the License Agreement will be automatically renewed for a period of one (1) year under the same terms and conditions simultaneously with the expiration of the effective term, and the same shall apply to any subsequent terms. Even during the effective term, the member store may cancel the License Agreement by providing a one (1) month prior notice according to the method to be separately prescribed by Toreta.

Toreta is entitled to enforce new measures and policies in relation to all or a part of the Service.

While Toreta will exert efforts for safely storing the customer’s reservation details and other data sent by the member store during the use of the Service, there is a possibility that the data may be lost due to the malfunction of the external server used by the Service or other reasons. Please back up such data and take other preservative measures under the member store’s responsibility and cost burden. Furthermore, Toreta does not guarantee that such data will not be lost, damage or erased, and Toreta will not be liable for such loss, damage or erasure unless such loss, damage or erasure was caused by the intention or gross negligence of Toreta.

Amendment of these Terms

Toreta may freely amend the subject matter of these Terms. When Toreta amends these Terms, Toreta will promptly notify the amendments to the member store.
