By accepting the present contract, it is agreed that HELPTECH24 will provide the services contracted by THE CLIENT, among those described below, and THE CLIENT will meet the charges described for each of these:

Installation, Configuration, and Initial Clean: This service is provided, and is required, prior to the remote technical support service and security solutions for devices connected to the internet and includes:

  • Carrying out a professional system health-check to identify and eliminate potentially malicious files and operational irregularities, as well as the repair of these.
  • Installation and configuration of software licenses included in the contracted service.
  • System configuration and optimization.

Remote Technical Service and Security Solutions: This service, depending on the type of plan taken out, will include the services described on the Features page: https://helptech24.com/plans/. The charges will be payable in advance, unless another agreement is made with THE CLIENT.

HELPTECH24 may use its discretion to allow THE CLIENT to pay the charges in a number of installments, the number and amount of which will depend on the total price of the contracted service. In this case, a recurring monthly payment will be set up until the total charge for the contracted service has been paid according to a payment calendar as indicated by HELPTECH24 within the contract.

Under this premise, and in the event that THE CLIENT does not make one or more payments on the agreed due date, the support plan initially contracted may be downgraded, in type and/or duration, to a lower priced support plan which conforms to the payment by THE CLIENT of the full fee to date in accordance with the Features page mentioned above.

THE CLIENT can upgrade the duration and/or type of their contracted support plan by paying the difference between the contracted plan and the new plan.

The support service will not be renewed automatically once the subscription has ended.

Whilst the contract is in force, any software used in the provision of the previously described services may be replaced by another that fulfills the same function and has similar features.

It is stated that the technical team at HELPTECH24 will only be able to provide assistance and support to THE CLIENT based on issues relating to the software on THE CLIENT’s devices, but not for those related to the hardware or material elements, for which they will only be able to provide recommendations or potential assessment of their function.

  • Making THE CLIENT aware of any issue arising from payment of the contracted service as soon as these are known.
  • Providing contracted services Efficiently and Diligently.
  • Not making any inadequate use of the data accessed while providing the contracted service.

  • Diligently follow the instructions provided for the correct provision of the service by the HELPTECH24 Staff. The services provided require the installation and implementation of tools in THE CLIENT’s systems, for which HELPTECH24 Staff will require THE CLIENT’s collaboration to correctly carry out the provision of the service.
  • Accept the terms and conditions of use for the software and/or hardware that requires installation in the equipment as part of the HELPTECH24 service, or to allow the HELPTECH24 Staff to accept this remotely on their behalf.

The resulting reimbursement to THE CLIENT will be processed within 14 calendar days from the day that the request for reimbursement is received or, if applicable, from the date that the returned hardware is received by HELPTECH24.

In this sense, this will be understood as the amount of time that has passed and the time during which THE CLIENT would have had access to the support service, whether or not they made use of this.
