This Service Agreement is entered into between TS24 and the
individual or entity ordering or accessing the Service. By agreeing to the
terms and conditions set forth below, the parties express their agreement to:
1. Provision of Services:
TS24 commits to provide the Services and Software in
accordance with this Agreement, including any additional terms, applicable SOF,
and related documentation. The Services are provided subject to all laws and
government regulations relating to TS24’s operations. During the subscription

the Services and Software for internal business purposes, subject to SOF and
the right to use the associated mobile application.
2. Customer Responsibilities:
a. Customer Account: Customer must register for an account to

full ownership and interest in Customer Data. The Customer grants TS24 a
non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free right to use the Customer Data for the
purposes of providing and improving the TS24 Services, in compliance with its

the accuracy and legality of the Customer Data and must have the necessary
rights to grant TS24 the license to use this data.
b. Data Security: Both TS24 and the Customer undertake to
comply with the personal data protection provisions as set out in the DPA. TS24
will apply appropriate safeguards to prevent unauthorized access to or
processing of the Customer Data. Any processing of personal data will strictly

4. Intellectual Property
a. Ownership: The Customer retains full ownership of the
Customer Data and related confidential information provided under this
Agreement. TS24 has no ownership rights to Customer Data except as specifically
granted in this Agreement. TS24 and its licensors retain ownership of the TS24

and does not have access to the source code of the Service except for the Software
that may be downloaded in object code form.
b. Usage Data: TS24 has the right to collect and use data
arising from the Customer's use of the Service to improve and operate its
products and services. This data will not include Customer's confidential
information and will be treated as provided in this Agreement and TS24's

c. Updates: TS24 may update the Service and Software from
time to time to include or remove features. Such modifications shall not
materially impair the overall functionality of the Service or Software during
the subscription period, unless required for security or legal reasons.
d. Services
Third Party Services: Third party products or services may
be integrated or made available through the TS24 Services. Customer must accept
separate terms with such third party providers and TS24 is not responsible for
the support or warranty of such Third Party Services.
5. Fees and Payments
a. Fees and Payments: All fees associated with the Customer
Account (“Fees”) are set forth in the Service Order Form (SOF) or on the
Website. For credit card payments, payment is due immediately upon invoice
issuance. Customer hereby authorizes TS24, or our authorized agent, to bill
your credit card upon registration for the Services and any renewals. For other
forms of payment accepted, payment must be made and paid in full within thirty
(30) days of the invoice date or as otherwise provided in the applicable SOF.
Payment obligations are non-cancellable and, except as otherwise expressly
provided in this Agreement, Fees paid are non-refundable.
b. Late Payment: If undisputed Fees are more than thirty
(30) days past due, upon receipt of written notice from TS24, we may
temporarily suspend Customer’s access to the TS24 Technology, including but not
limited to Customer’s Account, until such Fees are paid in full.
c. Payment Disputes: TS24 will not exercise its rights under
Clause 5(b) (Late Payment) if Customer is disputing the Fees in good faith and
is actively cooperating to resolve such dispute. If the parties are unable to
resolve the dispute within thirty (30) days, TS24 reserves the right to seek
any remedy under this Agreement or at law. Non-disputed fees must be paid in
full.

TS24 provides VAN services such as T-VAN TaxOnline, C-VAN iHaiQuan, and I-VAN iBHXH in accordance with the guidance of the Tax Authority at a VAT rate of 10%. For other software services under the software rental model, the applicable VAT rate is also 10%. The Customer agrees to pay such taxes that TS24 may be required to collect as required by law.
e. Affiliate Orders: Customer’s Affiliate may purchase
Services directly from TS24 by executing a Service Order governed by this
Agreement. Each such Service Order shall constitute a separate agreement
between the Affiliate and TS24. If the Affiliate is located in another country,
the tax and legal terms may be modified accordingly.
f. Purchases from Channel Partners: Customer may purchase
Services, Software or Mobile Applications from TS24’s authorized Channel
Partners. Products purchased through Channel Partners will be subject to this
Agreement. All Fees (including Taxes) shall be payable to the Channel Partner
in accordance with the agreed terms. Customer acknowledges that, if purchased
through a Channel Partner, any credits or refunds under this Agreement will be
processed by the Channel Partner, which will release TS24 from its respective
obligations.

Service Plans begin on the start date specified in the relevant SOF and
continue for the specified Subscription Term.

of non-renewal or downgrade at least sixty (60) days prior to the expiration of
the Subscription Term, Service Plans will automatically renew for the same

the Fees at the beginning of each Subscription Term, including renewed
Subscription Terms. Fees for renewed Subscription Terms must be paid on the

failure to renew the Services; (iii) violation of the Terms of Use restrictions
by Customer or its Users; or (iv) if TS24 deems the suspension necessary to

service as soon as the issue is resolved.
d. Termination for Good Cause: Either party may terminate
the Service
Terminate this Agreement by written notice to the other
party if the other party commits a material breach and fails to cure such
breach within thirty (30) days after notice, or immediately if the other party

proceeding.

immediately suspend Customer’s access to the Trial Service. Customer must
export or archive Customer Data before the trial period ends. TS24 has no
obligation to retain or archive Customer Data after the trial period.
7. Export and Retention of Data
Upon termination or expiration of this Agreement or any SOF
for any reason, Customer’s access to the Services, Software, Mobile
Applications, APIs, and other TS24 Technologies will cease. TS24 recommends
that Customer proactively export all Customer Data before closing the Account.
TS24 will allow export of Customer Data within fourteen (14) days of the
termination of the Agreement or the relevant SOF. After this period, TS24 shall
retain Customer Data for three (3) months before permanently deleting it, unless
a longer retention period is required by law for the purposes of legal
compliance, financial preservation or dispute resolution. After this period,
Customer Data will not be recoverable.
8. Security
Each party undertakes to protect the other party's
Confidential Information against unauthorized use, access or disclosure in the
same manner as it protects its own Confidential Information and with no less
care than is reasonably practicable. The receiving party shall use the
disclosing party's Confidential Information only to perform its obligations and
rights under this Agreement, and shall disclose it only to employees and agents
who need to know the Confidential Information to perform such obligations. The
receiving party may also disclose it if required by law or by a court of
competent jurisdiction. In the event of improper disclosure, the disclosing
party shall be entitled to seek appropriate legal remedies, in addition to any
other remedies available at law.
