Terms of service

MAJALISS is a non-profit association offering a complete solution to improve access to Islamic religious education. We provide institutes with a range of services that let educators manage their courses efficiently, share news and access several features.

Within that framework, the users of the "MAJALISS" application and MAJALISS (hereinafter the "Parties", or individually a "Party") undertake to comply with these Terms of Service.

The Parties acknowledge that they are both independent and autonomous.

For clarity and better understanding, the terms below have the following definitions:

• Personal data (or Data): any information that, directly, indirectly or in connection with other information – including a personal identification number – allows a natural person to be identified or identifiable.

• User: the person using MAJALISS who, unless otherwise stated, is the Data subject.

• Trackers: any technology – for example cookies, unique identifiers, web beacons, embedded scripts, e-tags and fingerprinting – that allows Users to be tracked, for example by accessing or storing information on the User's device. Trackers make it possible to report on Users' behaviour anonymously.

The User will be informed of the modification through the publication of the updated Terms via a notification within the Application. The modified Terms take effect from their publication. Continued use of the Service after that publication constitutes acceptance of the new version.

The User is therefore advised to read these Terms carefully, and to check regularly for any updates made to them.

6.3 GPS positions

6.4 Push notifications

MAJALISS may send push notifications to the User to achieve the purposes set out in the privacy policy.

In most cases, Users can opt out of receiving push notifications by consulting their device settings, such as the notification settings of mobile phones, and then changing those settings for MAJALISS.

6.5 System logs and maintenance

7.2 Licence

The User has only a personal, worldwide, non-exclusive, revocable, non-assignable and non-transferable licence to access, use and browse the Application within the scope and for the duration of the Services.

The conclusion, interpretation and validity of these Terms and of all contracts arising from them and their consequences are governed by the French law and regulations in force, to the exclusion of any other legislation, whatever the nationality of the User; this applies to both substantive and procedural rules.

Failing an amicable agreement between the parties and if negotiations fail, the parties regain their full freedom and their dispute will be brought before a competent court.

The invalidity or impossibility of implementing any of the clauses of these Terms, if it does not significantly upset the contractual balance, affects only the clause concerned and does not entail the cancellation of these Terms.

The User undertakes to read the content of this document carefully, and expressly and unreservedly accepts all the rules and obligations set out in it.

The Terms of Service come into force and take effect from the subscription to the Services, that is, the User's acceptance of the Terms of Service, for an indefinite period.

MAJALISS reserves the right to modify these Terms at any time to improve their accessibility, clarity and consistency, and to adapt to changes in the Service.

The User will be informed of changes to the Terms as soon as they are published in the application. The User must read them carefully.

Any substantial change to the rights and obligations of the Parties will, before it comes into force, be notified to the User by MAJALISS. The User may then either accept the new Terms and/or continue using the service, which constitutes acceptance of the new Terms, or ask MAJALISS to keep the Terms accepted at the time of subscribing to the Services, or terminate these Terms.
