GUEST TERMS AND CONDITIONS

  1. Introduction

    1. Welcome to Tipr, a tip collection platform brought to you by Apeiromont, Inc. (" we", " us", " our"). We are a C-corporation incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware in the United States of America.
    2. Tipr exists to help workers of the world earn a little more money, and to help you say thank you with confidence, all Tips you give using Tipr are passed directly to Worker(s) you choose (subject to our right to deduct our Commission and such other fees/costs that we are entitled to deduct with the agreement of the Worker).
    3. Please read these Guest Terms carefully. These Guest Terms explain your rights and obligations when using Tipr as a Guest to give Tips to Workers.
    4. These Guest Terms should be read in conjunction with our Platform Terms of Use, and our Privacy Policy (collectively the " Agreement" between us). By accessing and using Tipr to give your Tip to a Worker, you accept and agree to the terms of this Agreement.
    5. You can contact us by submitting a support request.
    6. Certain words and phrases in these Guest Terms have specific definitions when they start with capital letters. Where a defined term is used, it either has the meaning set out in clause 8 below (Definitions) or the meaning given to it in the relevant clause of these Guest Terms.
