Terms And Conditions of ZATAP
V1.0 – 01.09.2023
1 Scope
These terms and conditions (“Terms“) apply to the access to and the use of the ZATAP app (the “App“), a platform to collect “digital twins” of physical objects and related services (together the “Services“), offered by collectID AG, Neumarkt 11, 8400 Winterthur, Switzerland (“Company“).
To access or use the Services, you (“End-User“) have to agree to these Terms by acceptance.
These Terms, together with all other referenced documents, form a legally binding agreement (“Agreement“) between the Company and the End-User.
The Services are provided exclusively to persons who are at least 13 years of age. The End-User represents and warrants that they are not a person or entity barred from using the Services under the laws of Switzerland, their place of residence, or any other applicable jurisdiction. Accounts registered by bots or automated methods are not authorized and will be terminated.
2 Services
The Company is a technology service provider offering brands (“Brands“) a solution to connect physical products issued by each Brand to the digital world. The technology creates “digital twins” (“Digital Twin“) of physical items which allow the End-Users to interact with Brands, receive benefits and authenticate physical products.
Each physical product is equipped with a unique Near-Field Communication (“NFC“) tag (combined the “Physical Product“). End-Users can check the Physical Product’s authenticity by scanning the NFC tag with their smartphone, and after purchasing the Physical Product register their ownership of the Physical Product via the App and get access to the Digital Twin linked with a Non-Fungible Token (“NFT“).
The End-User can store the NFT with the Company or in a third-party wallet connected to the App. As long as the third-party wallet containing the NFT remains connected to the App, the Digital Twin is active and verified.
Transferring ownership of the NFT and the Digital Twin is only allowed in combination with the Physical Product and can only be confirmed via the App. Selling the NFT or the Digital Twin without the Physical Product is prohibited, and doing so may result in deactivation of the Digital Twin.
In case the NFT is transferred to a third party’s wallet not connected to the App, Company may decide to deactivate the Digital Twin.
3 Registration
The End-User may need to register an account to access and use all or part of the Services.
The End-User must provide accurate, current, and complete information during registration and keep their account information up-to-date. Accounts registered by bots or automated methods are not authorized and will be terminated.
The End-User is responsible for maintaining the confidentiality and security of their account credentials and may not disclose their credentials to any third party. The End-User is responsible and liable for activities conducted through their account and must immediately notify the Company if there is any suspicion that their credentials have been lost, stolen, or their account is otherwise compromised.
4 Rights & Obligations of Company
The Company will provide the End-User with the Services as agreed in the Agreement.
The Company:
- is permitted to suspend access to the Services or the End-User’s account based upon reasonable determination of the occurrence or potential for occurrence of illegal or wrongful activity, fraudulent use or attempted fraudulent activity. In case of a suspension, the End-User remains liable for all charges and fees incurred during the suspension period;
- may amend the Terms, including the applicable fees, from time to time at its sole discretion by publishing an updated version of the Terms in the App. Where possible, the Company will electronically notify the End-User of any material changes to the Terms.

The End-User’s continued use of the Services following any amendments indicates acceptance of the changes to the Terms;

- inform the Company immediately if errors or faults occur and to support the Company in the analysis and, if necessary, in the elimination of errors and faults to the extent required.
If the provision of Services under this Agreement is delayed due to the End-User’s failure to comply with his duty to cooperate or due to other circumstances for which the End-User is responsible, the End-User shall bear the disadvantages and additional costs incurred.
The End-User is not allowed to sell, sublicense, allow access or make the unique NFC Tag available to third-parties independently from the physical object.

- The End-User materially or repeatedly violates the Agreement;
