General Terms of Service

These Terms of Service  (the “Terms”) is a binding legal agreement between you and Netsys Inc. (“we”, “us” or “our”) that governs your use of the VPN services, our applications, software, websites or other services provided by us (the “Services”).

1. ACCEPTANCE OF TERMS

By accessing, downloading, installing or using our Services you are fully accepting the terms, conditions and disclaimers contained in this document and all policies and guidelines that are incorporated by reference. You acknowledge that you have read and understood the Terms and agree to be bound by them. If you do not accept Terms, you must immediately stop using the Services.

Our Services are also subject to the supplementary terms (the “Supplementary Terms”) governing that particular service. If there is a conflict between the Terms and Supplementary Terms, then the Supplementary Terms shall prevail in relation to that particular service. By agreeing to these Terms, you are also agreeing to the Privacy Policy (the “Privacy Policy”).

You shall not use the Services in contradiction with these Terms or any applicable law or regulation of the country or territory you originate from or reside in or any applicable jurisdiction (the “Applicable Law”). You shall not use the Services for any purpose that is unlawful or prohibited by these Terms and applicable law.

You shall not use the Services (a) if you have not reached the age of majority in your territory of residence (in most cases, 18 to 21) or if you do not have the ability to form binding contracts under the Applicable law.

2. CHANGED TERMS

We shall have the right at any time to change or modify the Terms or any part thereof. We reserve the right to amend the fees or institute new fees at any time upon reasonable advanced notice posted on this website, application or sent via email. Unless it is stated by us otherwise, such changes, modifications, additions or deletions shall be effective immediately upon notice published on this website. Any use of the Services after such notice shall be deemed to constitute acceptance of such changes, modifications or additions.

Traditional VPNs run on centralized infrastructure, which means one point of failure. At Mysterium, we're decentralized; there is no central point of control or anywhere to store your logs. As a result, we can’t track or keep logs of your traffic, even if we wanted to.

3. PRIVACY POLICY

We will not collect any information or store any logs about your browsing activity, queries, data destinations, IP addresses or timestamps. We are based in a jurisdiction (Panama) which laws do not require us to retain any of such data. We may collect some your personal information, such as your email address and payment information. We only collect information that are necessary for the proper delivery of the Services. For the information how we process your personal data, please see our Privacy Policy.

4. YOUR ID AND SECURITY

An ID and a private key (jointly, the “ID Data”) will be automatically created for your when you use the Services for the first time. You are entirely responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your ID Data. Furthermore, you are entirely responsible for any activities that occur under your ID Data. You agree to notify us immediately of any unauthorized use of your account or any other breach of security. We will not be liable for any loss that you may incur as a result of someone else using your ID Data, either with or without your knowledge. However, you could be held liable for losses incurred by us or another party due to someone else using your account. You may not use anyone else's ID Data at any time, without the permission of the account holder.

5. PRICING AND PAYMENTS

The Services are provided on pay- as-you-go basis. The Services will be available to you as soon as your initial payment is processed.

Any fees charged by us are exclusive of taxes. Therefore, we may calculate and add any applicable taxes or fees, including, but not limited VAT and other taxes and fees under the laws applicable to you. Such taxes and fees will be calculated according to the payment information provided by you to us at the time of purchasing the Services. 

We may increase or decrease the charges at any time (no changes to the pricing effect Services already used). Any changes to the pricing will be communicated to you in advance.

By using any payment method, including crypto currency payments, debit or credit card, to purchase credits for the Services, you confirm it is yours or that you have permission from the account holder or cardholder to use it. Moreover, it is your responsibility to ensure your debit or credit card account has sufficient funds to pay for the charges. We shall not be responsible for any additional charges which may be imposed on you by your bank or card issuer.

We reserve the right to block or suspend the Services, if we have reasonable cause to suspect fraudulent use of a payment account, credit or debit card.

6. REFUND AND CANCELATION POLICY

You may cancel the Services at any time by notifying us in writing to the following email help@mysteriumvpn.com
You may cancel the Services with a full refund within 10 days of your initial Services purchase. Refunds beyond the 10-day purchase window will be considered, at the sole our discretion, if you can demonstrate that the Services were not available or usable during the subscription period and that reasonable attempts were made to contact us to resolve the issue. In this case, we may provide the Subscriber with a pro-rata refund of service fees paid during the period when the Service was not available or usable.

Refunds are generally processed within seven (7) days, and are made to the original form of payment used for purchase. All refunds are sent in USD and therefore the refund amount could differ from the amount originally paid in local currency or crypto currency paid for the Services.

You can only get a refund for the Service once. If you buy the Services after you have been refunded for the Services, you will not be refunded for any further cancellation. No refunds will be provided you violate the Terms.
