ARTICLE 4: OPERATION OF THE NPERF TEST

4.1. Speed measurement

The speed test is based on the downloading of incompressible data with one or more simultaneous connections in order to saturate the User's connection for a few seconds in order to measure its capacity. The peak speed corresponds to the average of the highest 30% of the consecutive samples.

4.2. Measurement of latency

The latency test consists of measuring the time it takes for a small data packet to reach the server and then return to your terminal. It is carried out ten times minimum. The result is a minimum, an average and jitter (maximum variation between measurements).

4.3. Performance in navigation

The navigation test consists of loading different websites and measuring the loading time. The performance index is obtained from the loading time.

4.4. Video performance (streaming test)

The video streaming test involves loading and playing a streaming video and measuring the loading time and any buffering (video pause) of the video. The performance index is the ratio of the video's loading and playing time to its nominal duration.

4.5. Score calculation

The final score is calculated from the results of the various tests listed above, in order to provide a global indicator of the user experience, using an exclusive NPERF algorithm.

ARTICLE 5: ACCESS TO SERVICES - CREATION OF A USER ACCOUNT

Once these fields have been filled in, the User must validate their registration form by clicking on the "Create my account" or "Sign In" button and accept this EULA.

The User acknowledges that any connection made using their Identifier and Password will be deemed to have been made by them. In the event that the User becomes aware of access by a third party to their Account, they undertake to immediately notify NPERF by sending a message via the contact page .

Any change in the information provided by the User must result in an online update that will take effect instantly.

The User is authorised to use their Test Data exclusively for private, non-professional, non-commercial and non-profit purposes (advertising etc.). The User will be solely responsible for this use.

ARTICLE 7: PREMIUM SUBSCRIPTION

7.1. Price

The price of the PREMIUM Subscription is around € 2 per year including VAT (depending on the platform and the country).

The Premium Version is payable in a secure manner according to the payment terms provided for and required by the Apple App Store or the Android Play Store.

The payment methods registered on the User's Store account, namely the credit card, the mobile network access provider billing, or a PayPal type electronic wallet, may vary according to the Store on which the User has an account and acquires the Premium Version.

The Apple App Store or the Android Play Store are solely responsible for the terms and the payment process in which NPERF does not get involved, in accordance with the terms and conditions imposed by such platforms.

7.2. Duration

The term of the Premium Subscription is one (1) year from the date of subscription.

At the end of this period:

• For iOS, the User is notified directly by the Apple Store platform about the forthcoming expiry of their Subscription. The User must then subscribe to a new Subscription if they wish to continue to have access to the Premium Services.
