General Terms and Conditions for the Service
These changes apply from 24 november 2023.
Kivra updates the terms and introduces new features to enable you to respond to questionnaires and receive offers from senders. We also shorten the notice period for the service.
1. General
These general terms and conditions apply when Kivra Sverige AB, org. no. 556917-3544, or another company within the same group as Kivra Sverige AB ("Kivra"), provides private individuals ("User/You/Yourself") with one or more digital services and features, including but not limited to a digital mailbox for receiving, managing, transmitting, and storing digital messages, shipments, and receipts ("Service"), including any other features and services that Kivra may offer from time to time ("Additional Services"). The term "Service" also includes Additional Services, unless otherwise expressly stated in these general terms and conditions or in the specific terms and conditions for the Additional Service in question. To access such Additional Services, You must accept the specific terms and conditions that apply to the Additional Service. The specific terms and any other written agreements regarding the Service and the Additional Services between You and Kivra together constitute the agreement between You and Kivra ("Agreement").
By choosing to register for and use the Service, You simultaneously commit to following these general terms and conditions and any other rules and instructions that Kivra may publish via the Service from time to time. You are also obliged to comply with applicable laws, regulations, and authority decisions when using the Service.
2. The Service
2.1 Registration
You register for the Service by applying for an account with Kivra through one of the registration options that Kivra offers from time to time.
All private individuals with a Swedish personal identity number and e-identification supported by Kivra can apply for registration of an account with Kivra. To have your account registration approved by Kivra, You must be at least 18 years old, or your registration must be able to be approved by your parent/guardian in a manner approved by them.
If You have a sole proprietorship, You will also receive E-shipments (as defined in section 2.3 below) to your sole proprietorship in your digital mailbox. This is because the organization number in these cases is the same as your personal identity number.
An agreement for the Service shall be deemed to have been concluded between You and Kivra once the registration has been completed and the account has been approved. The Service is free for You as a User.
2.2 Access
Access to the Service is provided through one of the access options that Kivra informs about via the Service from time to time.
2.3 Receipt of E-shipments
The Service means that Kivra, after the approved registration of your account, receives, among other things, digital messages and shipments, including invoices and digital receipts ("E-shipments"), in your digital mailbox from the companies, organizations, authorities, municipalities, and others that have chosen to connect to Kivra ("Senders").
To be able to receive E-shipments from authorities and municipalities, You must also register as a user of the service "Mina Meddelanden" (My Messages), see the description of the terms at digg.se. This is done automatically when registering with Kivra. By being connected to "Mina Meddelanden," You agree to receive E-shipments from authorities and municipalities that are connected to or will connect to "Mina Meddelanden."
Kivra continuously informs Senders that You wish to receive E-shipments in your digital mailbox. You can choose not to receive E-shipments from one or more Senders via settings in the Service. You can also choose not to receive digital receipts in your digital mailbox via settings in the Service. After such notification, You may continue to receive E-shipments from the relevant Sender for a maximum of fifty-two (52) days and digital receipts for a maximum of three (3) days.
2.4 Uploads
You can also upload Digital documents in the Service. The number of digital documents that can be uploaded is limited to 20, and Kivra may introduce other limitations on uploads of digital documents from time to time. It is not permitted to upload sensitive personal data or criminal information in the Service.
2.5 Payments
In the Service, You can make payments for invoices and payment orders delivered as E-shipments to your digital mailbox.
The payment methods and payment options that can be used are specified when You choose to make a payment in the Service and may vary over time. To use certain payment methods, You may need to accept terms from the payment service provider.
The payment service provider, and not Kivra, is responsible for initiating or executing the payment in accordance with its terms and your instructions. You are responsible for ensuring that the information You provide during payment is accurate and up-to-date and that invoices are paid on time. Kivra is not responsible for any additional costs incurred due to your delayed or missed
payments.
2.6 Offers
In the Service, You can choose to receive marketing ("Offers") from Senders. The Sender is responsible for the content of the Offer and for how long it is available to You. You can choose which Senders You want to receive Offers from and can choose to disable Offers from Senders through settings in the Service at any time.
2.7 Questionnaires
In the Service, You can choose to respond to questionnaires ("Questionnaires") from Senders. The Sender is responsible for the content of the Questionnaire and for how long it is available to You.
2.8 Authorization
Within the framework of the Service, You can choose to share your digital mailbox with another user and thus give this person reading and handling rights. However, to access your digital mailbox, this user must log in with e-identification and accept the sharing. You can revoke the sharing at any time. Digital receipts are not covered by the possibility to share your digital mailbox. However, You can manage your digital receipts in accordance with the functionality offered in the Service from time to time. For example, You can choose to forward digital receipts to one or more systems, such as for expense management.
2.9 Kivra's Communication with You
Kivra communicates with You via, among other things, email, SMS, push notifications, and E-shipments. You can choose to decline notifications via email and push notifications through settings in the Service. You can also choose to decline marketing via email through the link in the email message itself. However, communication regarding the Service is considered an integral part of the Service, which means it cannot be opted out of. It is also not possible to disable Kivra as a Sender in the Service.
2.10 Receipt and Responsibility for E-shipments
An E-shipment is deemed to have been received by You when the E-shipment is made available to You in your digital mailbox.
Senders are responsible for the content of the E-shipments.
You are responsible, in the same way as for physical shipments, for accessing the content of E-shipments.
2.11 Storage
The content in the Service, such as E-shipments and your account history, is stored for as long as You have an approved account registered with Kivra.
During this time, You are responsible for which digital documents, including but not limited to E-shipments, You choose to delete. Digital receipts are automatically deleted after eight (8) years unless You choose an extended storage period. The digital documents that are deleted will no longer be available to You.
In case of suspension or termination of the Service in accordance with section 11 below, all your digital documents, including but not limited to E-shipments, and your account history stored within the framework of the Service will be deleted after twenty (20) days.
