Terms of Use and Privacy Policy

This Agreement is published exclusively in English. Any translated version made available by Company or third parties is provided for convenience only and shall have no legal effect.

Please read this Terms of Use and Privacy Policy (Agreement) carefully. By registering an account or using the Offerings, you (User or You) acknowledge that you have read and agree to be bound by this Agreement.

1. Scope and Parties

This Agreement is a legally binding contract between Doktar (we, us or Company), having its registered office at the address stated in Section 24 (About Company), and you, as the User of the Company’s Offerings (hardware, software, or services). It governs your use of the Offerings.

This Agreement applies to all Users of the Offerings. It also applies to Users invited by Corporate Customers (referred to as Corporate Customers) or Partners. This Agreement governs the relationship between you (as an end User) and Doktar unless otherwise stated. If you access other Services of Doktar (such as our public website or offline Services), additional privacy notices or terms may be presented for those contexts.

For the purposes of applicable data protection laws (including the GDPR), Company acts as the Data Controller unless a Corporate Customer explicitly determines the purposes and means of processing personal data, in which case the Corporate Customer acts as Data Controller (or joint Data Controller where applicable) and Company acts as Data Processor on its behalf.

2. Definitions

For clarity in this Agreement, the following definitions apply:

Other capitalized terms used in this Agreement have the meanings given to them in context. In this Agreement, “including” means “including without limitation”.

3. Corporate Customers and API Integrations

Company offers enterprise solutions allowing Corporate Customers to use the Services for their business or to invite individual Users to the platform. If you are invited to use the Services by a Corporate Customer, please note the following:

In summary, being invited by a Corporate Customer does not exempt you from these Terms of Use and Privacy Policy. Both you and the Corporate Customer must abide by applicable terms and laws. If you have questions about how your data is handled in a corporate scenario, please contact the Corporate Customer or Company for more information.

4. Account Registration and Membership

Eligibility: You must be at least 18 years old to register and use the Offerings. If you are under 18, you may only use the Offerings with the involvement and consent of a parent or legal guardian, who must supervise and assume responsibility for your use.

Account Creation: To access most features of the Offerings, you need to create a User account by providing truthful and up-to-date information (such as your name, contact details, and any other required registration information). You will choose or be provided with System Access Tools (e.g. a password, one-time codes) for login. You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your login credentials and restricting access to your account. You agree to notify us immediately of any unauthorized use of your account or breach of security.

Accurate Information: All information you provide during registration and use of the Offerings must be accurate, truthful, and kept current. If any of your information changes, you must update your account promptly. We rely on the latest information you provided; if it is not up to date, you understand that you might not receive important services, notices, and we will not be responsible for any consequences as a result. You also acknowledge that if you provide any false, outdated, or misleading information, we have the right to suspend or terminate your account (and any Services provided) and you may be liable for any damages or losses incurred due to your misinformation.

Account Access: You can log in to the Offerings using the phone number, email you registered with, along with your password (or other authentication method provided). You agree not to share your account credentials with others. You are responsible for all activities that occur under your account. If you suspect that someone else is using your account, inform us immediately.

Membership and Subscription: Basic registration to the Offerings is free. Upon registering and accepting this Agreement, you become a User of the Offerings with access to certain free Services. Some features or content may only be available to paid subscribers or Users with specific account types:

If you have been invited by a Corporate Customer, your access to features may be determined by the Corporate Customer’s arrangements with Company. For example, a Corporate Customer might sponsor your subscription or provide you access to certain enterprise-only features. If your relationship with the Corporate Customer ends, Company may adjust or terminate your access unless you continue under an individual account or another arrangement.

5. Fees and Payment

Currently, we do not charge any fee for basic membership in the Offerings. Many Services can be used free of charge. However, Company reserves the right to introduce fees for certain Services or subscription tiers in the future.

6. Acceptable Use and User Obligations

By using the Offerings, you agree to use it in accordance with this Agreement, all applicable laws and regulations, and the principles of good faith and fair use. You, as the User, have the following obligations and commitments:

If you engage in any of the above prohibited behaviors or otherwise violate these Terms of Use, Company may take appropriate action, including warning you, removing offending content, suspending or terminating your account, and/or pursuing legal remedies if necessary. You may also be subject to civil or criminal penalties under applicable law for unlawful conduct.

6A. User Content and Data License

By submitting, uploading, transmitting, or otherwise making available any data, content, imagery, telemetry, field information, notes, or other materials through the Offerings (“User Content”), you grant Company a worldwide, royalty-free, non-exclusive, transferable, sublicensable license to host, store, process, analyze, reproduce, modify, transform, display, and distribute such User Content solely for the purposes of:

This license continues for as long as necessary to provide the Services and thereafter only to the extent required for backups, legal compliance, dispute resolution, or anonymized analytics.

You represent and warrant that you have all necessary rights and lawful authority to provide the User Content and to grant this license.

Company does not claim ownership of User Content.

7. Company’s Rights and Service Management

As the provider of the Offerings, Company reserves certain rights to manage and protect its platform and business. You acknowledge and agree to the following:

Reservation of Rights: No license is granted to use Company’s trademarks, trade names, logos, or branding without prior written authorization. We remain the owner of all rights, titles, and interests in and to the Offerings, including any content we provide and the underlying technology.

No Warranty: To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, the Offerings are provided on an “as is” and “as available” basis, without warranties of any kind, whether express, implied, or statutory. This includes, without limitation, any warranties arising from course of dealing, course of performance, or usage of trade. Company does not warrant that the Offerings will be uninterrupted, error-free, secure, or free from defects.

Professional and Advisory Disclaimer: The Offerings may provide agronomic insights, recommendations, alerts, forecasts, analytics, or other informational outputs, whether generated automatically by systems or communicated by authorized representatives of the Company, based on data inputs, satellite imagery, third-party sources, models, or professional judgment. Such information may include professional or expert insights; however, it is provided on a non-binding basis and does not replace your own independent evaluation, professional judgment, or responsibility for decisions made based on the Offerings.

The Company does not guarantee the accuracy, completeness, reliability, or suitability of any recommendation or output for your specific circumstances. Agricultural outcomes may vary due to weather, soil conditions, pests, human factors, equipment variability, data quality, and other external conditions beyond the Company’s control.

You acknowledge that all decisions made based on the Offerings, including any guidance provided by Company personnel, are made at your sole discretion and risk. You remain solely responsible for verifying recommendations and for all farming, operational, commercial, or regulatory decisions taken based on the Offerings.

The Offerings do not constitute guaranteed professional services and are provided as decision-support tools only.

You acknowledge that agronomic recommendations may involve uncertainty and professional judgment, and that Company shall not be liable for errors, omissions, or differing expert opinions, whether generated by automated systems or provided by authorized personnel.

8. Export Compliance

You represent that you are not located in, under control of, or a national or resident of any country subject to EU, UN, U.S., or other applicable trade sanctions or embargoes. You agree not to use the Offerings in violation of export control or sanctions laws, including transferring data, software, or technology to restricted jurisdictions or persons.

Company may suspend access if required for compliance with export regulations.

9. Confidentiality

Mutual Confidentiality: During your use of the Offerings, you and Company may exchange information that is confidential or proprietary. “Confidential Information” includes any non-public information disclosed by one party to the other that is identified as confidential or that should reasonably be understood to be confidential given the nature of the information and the context of disclosure.

Both you and Company agree to keep each other’s Confidential Information strictly confidential and to use it only for the purposes of using or providing the Services as allowed by this Agreement. Neither party will disclose the other’s Confidential Information to any third party without prior written consent, except to the extent required by law or legal process (in which case, the party required to disclose will, if lawful, give the other party notice and an opportunity to object or seek an appropriate protective order).

User’s Personal Data: You understand that in order to provide the Services, Company will collect and process some of your personal data (for example, your name, contact details, and other information you provide or that we collect through your use of the Offerings). We treat Users’ personal data with appropriate confidentiality safeguards in accordance with applicable data protection laws. Company is committed to protecting your personal information in accordance with applicable data protection laws, including GDPR. Details about what data we collect and how we use and protect it are provided in the Privacy Policy sections of this Agreement. In summary:

By using the Offerings, you also agree that you will keep any personal data of other individuals you might access through the Offerings (if any) confidential and will process it in accordance with applicable data protection laws. For instance, if you view information about other Users or about individuals through a feature (with their consent or as part of the Service), you must treat that information with care and only use it for the purposes for which it was provided.

Access to Personal Data is strictly limited on a need-to-know basis to authorized operational roles acting under Company’s responsibility, and only to the extent necessary for providing the service or performing support, maintenance, debugging, security investigations, service improvement, or legal compliance duties.

Exceptions: The confidentiality obligations in this section do not apply to information that: (a) is or becomes publicly available without breach of this Agreement, (b) was already in the receiving party’s possession without an obligation of confidentiality, (c) is obtained by the receiving party from a third party legally entitled to disclose it, or (d) is independently developed by the receiving party without reference to the disclosing party’s Confidential Information.

Data Disclosure in Special Cases: We will not disclose your confidential information or personal data to third parties except as permitted in this Agreement. However, there may be exceptional circumstances where disclosure is necessary, such as:

No Liability for Unlawful Access: While we will take reasonable measures to protect Confidential Information and personal data, if despite these measures, our systems are subject to an unlawful or unauthorized breach (such as a hack, cyber attack, or theft of data) that compromises Confidential Information, Company shall not be liable for such disclosure except to the extent required by applicable law, provided that Company had implemented appropriate technical and organizational security measures in line with industry standards. We will, however, inform affected Users and authorities as required by law and take necessary steps to mitigate the breach.

10. Personal Data Collection and Use

Privacy Policy: This section of the Agreement serves as our Privacy Policy, explaining what personal data we collect from Users, how and why we process it, and the rights you have regarding your data.

Company is committed to protecting your privacy. We collect and process personal data about you only as necessary to provide our Services, to meet our legal obligations, and to fulfill the legitimate interests described below. We do not sell personal data in the ordinary course of business. We process your data in accordance with GDPR and other applicable privacy laws.

How We Use Your Data: In simpler terms, here’s how Company uses personal data to run and improve the Offerings:

Anonymized and Aggregated Data: Company may use anonymized or aggregated data derived from Personal Data for research, analytics, statistical, and business purposes. Such data no longer identifies any individual and is not considered Personal Data.

11. Communication Preferences and Consent

We differentiate between operational communications (which are necessary for the Service) and commercial communications (which are marketing/promotional in nature). Here’s how we handle each, and how you can control your preferences:

Operational and Transactional Communications: By using the Offerings, you agree that Company may send you certain essential communications even if you haven’t explicitly consented to marketing messages. These operational communications are a core part of the Services and are not for promotional purposes. They include, for example:

You generally cannot opt out of these Service-related communications because they are necessary for the proper functioning of the Service and for your account management. However, these communications will typically be limited to necessary information and will not include promotional content.

Commercial Electronic Messages (Marketing): With your consent, Company may send you marketing communications about our Offerings. This section is meant to fulfill requirements under laws like the Turkish Law No. 6563 on Electronic Commerce and similar regulations, as well as GDPR where applicable, regarding obtaining consent for marketing messages.

If you ever receive a communication from us that you believe you should not have (for example, a marketing email when you’re certain you opted out), please let us know so we can investigate and resolve the issue.

12. International Data Transfers and Subprocessors

We primarily store and process personal data in data centers located within the European Union. Where Services are provided through regional infrastructure outside the EU to optimize performance, such processing will be subject to the safeguards described below.

No Routine Transfers Outside: We do not routinely transfer or store your personal data outside of the EEA. In other words, we aim to keep your data in jurisdictions that are considered to provide adequate data protection under GDPR.

However, some of our subprocessors (third-party Service providers) or partners may be headquartered outside these areas. We only engage subprocessors in compliance with data protection laws. Where such subprocessors process or may access personal data, we ensure that appropriate safeguards are in place for any international transfers, including transfers outside the EEA or to jurisdictions not recognized as providing adequate protection under applicable law.

Subprocessors (Service Providers): Company uses a number of trusted third-party companies to help us provide, improve, and protect our Services. These subprocessors might provide infrastructure, analytics, communication tools, and other support Services. They process personal data only on our behalf and under our instructions (they do not have the right to use your data for their own purposes). We have agreements in place with each subprocessor to ensure your data is protected (including Data Processing Agreements as required by GDPR).

Some categories of subprocessors include:

For transparency, Company maintains an up-to-date list of subprocessors, including their purpose, available at https://r.doktar.io/processors. This list may change from time to time as we add or replace vendors.

Safeguards for International Transfers: Whenever we do transfer personal data out of the EEA or to a country that is not deemed to have “adequate” data protection by the EU Commission, we ensure that one of the following safeguards is implemented:

By using the Offerings, you acknowledge that your personal data may be processed by these subprocessors for the purposes described, and that it may involve transferring your data to different jurisdictions. We commit that any such transfer will be done in compliance with applicable laws and with your data safeguarded as described.

Subprocessor Data Security and Privacy: Each subprocessor is carefully vetted. We choose reputable companies with strong security practices. We have contracts in place requiring them to implement adequate data protection measures, to process data only for our purposes as instructed, and to notify us if they experience any data breach affecting User data. We continue to monitor our subprocessors’ compliance and will terminate relationships if a vendor fails to meet required standards.

Updates to Subprocessors: We will update subprocessors list if we add any new subprocessor that will handle personal data, especially if it involves transferring data to a new country. If you have any objections to a new subprocessor, you may contact us to express your concerns. Our goal is to maintain transparency and address User concerns while still effectively managing our Service delivery.

In conclusion, we take the responsibility of handling your data globally very seriously. We strive to minimize transfers outside of regions with strong privacy protections and, where necessary, employ industry-standard safeguards to protect your information internationally.

If a User has a substantiated legal objection, Company may offer an alternative solution or allow termination of affected Services, where technically feasible.

13. Data Retention and Anonymization

We retain your personal data only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes for which it was collected, as outlined in this Agreement, and to comply with legal and business requirements. Once your personal data is no longer needed for these purposes, we will either delete it or anonymize it so that you can no longer be identified.

We evaluate our data retention practices regularly and strive not to keep personal data longer than necessary. When data is deleted from active use, it may remain in backups for a short duration but we will ensure it’s deleted from all systems in due course.

Deletion and Anonymization: When data is no longer needed, we take steps to remove it from our systems:

Your Rights in Relation to Retention: You have the right to request deletion of your personal data (the “right to be forgotten”) under certain conditions. We detail this separately, but in short: if you want us to delete certain data sooner, you can ask. We will honor such requests unless we have a lawful reason to keep the data (for example, an ongoing legal obligation or a compelling legitimate interest). If we cannot delete something you asked us to (like an invoice we must keep for tax purposes), we will inform you of the reason.

Data Retention Schedule: If you need more specific information about how long certain data is kept, you may contact us. We will provide available details, such as our typical retention timelines for various data types. Our goal is to be transparent and help you understand what happens with your data over time.

Once the retention period for a piece of data is over, we ensure it’s properly disposed of:

By managing data in this way, we aim to minimize the privacy risks and storage costs associated with holding data too long, while also ensuring we meet our obligations and provide a reliable Service (which sometimes requires holding onto data for a certain time). If you have any questions or concerns about our data retention practices, feel free to reach out using the contact details in this Agreement.

14. Your Rights Regarding Personal Data

Under GDPR, KVKK, and other applicable data protection laws, you have specific rights relating to your personal data. We are committed to honoring these rights. Below is a list of your principal rights and what they mean:

  1. Right of Access: You have the right to obtain confirmation from us as to whether or not we are processing personal data about you. If we are, you have the right to access that data and be provided with a copy of it, as well as information about how we process it. Essentially, you can ask us, “What information do you have about me, and how are you using it?” We will provide you with the categories of data, the purposes of processing, the recipients (if any) to whom the data has been disclosed, and other information required by law.
  2. Right to Rectification: You have the right to request that we correct or update any of your personal data that is inaccurate or incomplete. If you become aware that we have wrong information (for example, a misspelled name or an outdated email address), please either correct it through your account settings or ask us to fix it. We’ll make the corrections as soon as possible. Keep in mind, for certain data (like your profile info) you can directly edit those in the Offerings.
  3. Right to Erasure (Right to be Forgotten): You can request that we delete your personal data under certain circumstances. This right is not absolute, but we will honor it if:

    If one of these conditions applies, you can ask for deletion of specific data or your entire account. We will also take reasonable steps to inform any third parties (subprocessors) that may be processing the data on our behalf to likewise erase it. Important: If you request deletion of your account, you will lose access to the Offerings and your data (such as field history, imagery, notes) will be permanently removed, except for data we must retain by law. We’ll let you know if any such exceptions apply.

  4. Right to Restrict Processing: In some situations, you may request that we temporarily limit how we use your data, without deleting it. This is an alternative you can consider if you have a concern about the data’s accuracy or our use of it. You can request restriction if:

    While processing is restricted, we will store your data but not actively use it (except to the extent needed for legal claims or if you consent or for important public interest reasons). We will inform you when a restriction is lifted.

  5. Right to Data Portability: You have the right to receive your personal data that you provided to us in a structured, commonly used, machine-readable format (for example, a CSV or JSON file). You also have the right to ask us to transmit that data to another controller (for example, another app or Service), where technically feasible. This right applies to personal data processed by automated means, based on your consent or on a contract (which covers most data you actively provide in using our Service). In practice, this means if you request it, we will give you a copy of your data (that you gave us, and possibly data generated by your use of the Service that is associated with you, like your field records and imagery links) in a format that can be imported into other Services. Note that this is subject to technical capability – we’ll do our best to accommodate reasonable formats.
  6. Right to Object: You have the right to object to our processing of your personal data in certain circumstances:
  7. Right to Withdraw Consent: When we rely on your consent to process personal data (e.g., for sending marketing emails or collecting optional data), you have the right to withdraw that consent at any time. Withdrawal of consent will not affect the lawfulness of processing that was done before withdrawal. For example, if you gave consent for us to use your location for certain optional features, and later withdraw it, we will stop that processing going forward, but it doesn’t undo any processing already done when consent was in place. Withdrawing consent for one purpose doesn’t affect processing under other legal bases. You can withdraw consent by changing your app settings (for things like location access or notifications), or contacting us for help, or using the specific opt-out mechanisms provided.
  8. Right to Not Be Subject to Automated Decisions (including profiling): You have the right not to be subject to decisions based solely on automated processing (including profiling) that have legal or similarly significant effects on you, except in certain cases (like when it’s necessary for a contract, authorized by law, or based on your explicit consent, and with safeguards in place). Currently, Company does not implement purely automated decision-making that produces legal or similarly significant effects without appropriate safeguards. If in future we implement something like that (for instance, an algorithm that makes a decision with big impact and no human involvement), we will inform you and ensure we have lawful grounds and your rights are protected (including the right to human review of such decisions). Examples of automated decision-making could be fraud prevention systems, or scoring profiles. Currently, any profiling we do (e.g., analyzing your usage to personalize features) is not legally significant in a way that would trigger this right, as it’s mostly to provide better Service (and typically with your consent or as part of Service).
  9. Right to Complaint: Although not a data subject right you exercise with us directly, it’s important to know: If you believe your rights have been violated or that we are not complying with data protection laws, you have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority. For Users in the European Union, this would be a Data Protection Authority (DPA) in the Member State of your habitual residence, place of work, or where the alleged infringement took place. For Users whose personal data is processed under KVKK, this would be the Personal Data Protection Authority (KVKK Authority). We ask that you please try to resolve any issue with us first by contacting us (we genuinely want to address your concerns), but you are free to contact the relevant supervisory authority at any time. If you’re outside these jurisdictions, your country may have its own privacy or consumer data protection authority.

How to Exercise Your Rights: You can exercise the above rights by contacting us through any of the methods below:

Through the App: If we offer in-app settings or tools for certain requests (like an account deletion button), you can use those as well, and we will follow up as needed.

Verification: For your security and to prevent unauthorized access to your data, we might need to verify your identity before fulfilling certain requests. If you’re logged into your account while making the request through the app or our official form, that usually suffices. If you email us, we might send a response asking you to confirm some account details or respond from the email associated with your account. For sensitive requests (like accessing data or deleting account), we want to ensure it’s you (the data subject) making the request, and not someone else.

Response Time: We aim to respond to your request as quickly as possible and no later than one month from when we receive it (this is the standard under GDPR). Under KVKK, we aim for 30 days. If your request is complex or we have received many requests, we are allowed to extend this period by an additional two months (we will inform you of the extension and the reasons for it if this happens). For example, if you requested a large data set, we might need a bit more time to compile it. But we’ll keep you updated.

Fee: In general, we will handle your request free of charge. However, if a request is manifestly unfounded or excessive (for instance, you make repetitive requests without good reason), data protection laws allow us to either charge a reasonable fee (taking into account the administrative cost of providing the information or communication or taking the action requested) or refuse to act on the request. We would only consider this in extreme cases; our default is not to charge any fee.

Refusal: If we refuse your request, in whole or in part, we will inform you of the reason for refusal (unless providing the reason would violate the rights of someone else, or a legal provision prevents us from disclosing the reason). For instance, if you request deletion of data that we are legally required to keep, we will tell you we cannot delete it due to legal obligations. If you request access that would reveal personal data about another person, we may have to refuse that portion or redact information to protect others. In any case of refusal, you have the right to complain to a supervisory authority as mentioned above, and to seek a judicial remedy.

Complaints to Company: If you have any concerns or are not satisfied with how we handled your privacy request, please let us know. We have a Data Protection Officer or responsible privacy team that will review and escalate your concern as needed. We appreciate the opportunity to fix the situation.

We encourage you to first reach out to us directly with any questions or requests about your personal data. Your privacy and trust are extremely important to Company, and we will do our best to address your needs and honor your rights.

(This section summarizes your rights, but if you need more detailed guidance on these rights, you may refer to GDPR Articles 15-21 and KVKK Articles 11 and related regulations, or consult the data protection authority in your jurisdiction.)

15. Updates to this Agreement and Notices

Changes to Terms or Privacy Policy: Company may, from time to time, make changes to this Agreement, including the Terms of Use or the Privacy Policy sections. We might do this for various reasons, such as adapting to new features, changes in law, or improvements in our practices. When we make changes we will indicate at the top of the Agreement the “Effective Date” of the latest revision.

Your Acceptance of Changes: Once we announce changes, the following will apply:

Our aim is not to change terms arbitrarily; changes typically aim to clarify the Agreement or adapt to new conditions. We encourage you to review the Agreement periodically to stay informed of any updates. We will not retroactively change how we handle your personal data without your consent unless required by law.

Notices and Communication: For purposes of legal notices or any formal communication under this Agreement:

Notification of Security Incidents: In the unfortunate event of a data breach or security incident that affects your personal data, we are committed to notifying you and the relevant authorities as required by law. We may use the contact info on file (usually email) to do so. We would include information about what happened and any steps you should take to protect yourself.

Updates to Other Policies: From time to time, we may also update other policies referenced in this Agreement (like community guidelines or separate Product policies within the app). We will communicate those changes in a manner similar to Agreement changes, if they materially affect Users.

In summary, this section means we have the flexibility to improve or modify our terms, but we will keep you informed and respect your choices. Please pay attention to notifications from Company to stay up to date with any changes. If you ever have questions about changes or need clarification, feel free to contact us.

16. Limitation of Liability

Company’s total aggregate liability arising out of or in connection with this Agreement or the Offerings shall not exceed:

(a) if you act on behalf of an Organization or Corporate Customer, the total amount actually paid by that Organization to Company for the Offerings in the twelve (12) months immediately preceding the event giving rise to the claim; or

(b) if you are an individual consumer, EUR 100;

whichever applies.

Company shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, consequential, punitive, special, or exemplary damages, including loss of profit, loss of data, business interruption, or loss of opportunity, even if advised of the possibility of such damages.

Company shall not be liable for loss of agricultural yield, crop failure, or farming outcomes.

Nothing in this Agreement excludes liability that cannot be excluded under applicable law.

Company shall not be liable for decisions made by Users based on outputs, recommendations, analytics, or insights generated through the Offerings.

17. Force Majeure

The Company shall not be liable for any delay, interruption, failure in performance, or non-performance of its obligations under this Agreement where such delay or failure results from events beyond its reasonable control, including but not limited to natural disasters, epidemics, pandemics, war, civil unrest, strikes, governmental actions, utility failures, telecommunications disruptions, internet outages, cloud service provider failures, or cyberattacks, provided that such event is not caused by Company’s negligence or willful misconduct and that Company has implemented reasonable technical and organizational security measures in accordance with industry standards.

During the continuation of a force majeure event, the affected obligations shall be suspended for the duration of the event. Nothing in this section limits liability where such limitation is not permitted under applicable law.

18. Indemnification

To the extent permitted by applicable law and to the extent caused by your actions or omissions, you agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Company, its affiliates, directors, officers, employees, contractors, and Partners from and against any claims, damages, losses, liabilities, costs, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) arising out of or directly related to:

This obligation survives termination of this Agreement.

19. Termination

This Agreement is effective from the moment you accept it (for example, when you click “I Agree” or when you first use the Offerings after having been presented with the Agreement) and will remain in force until terminated by either you or Company.

Your Right to Terminate: You may terminate this Agreement at any time by discontinuing use of the Offerings and, if you have an account, by deleting your account. You can request account deletion via the Offerings settings or by contacting us. Once your account is deleted:

If you have a paid subscription and you wish to terminate, you may need to cancel the subscription through the app store or platform from which you purchased to avoid further charges. Unless otherwise stated in a specific refund policy, termination by you (except when due to our breach or a significant change in terms) typically does not entitle you to a refund of fees already paid. For example, if you paid for a yearly subscription and decide to delete your account halfway through, we usually will not refund the remaining unused months, except where explicitly required by applicable law.

Our Right to Terminate or Suspend: Company reserves the right to suspend or terminate your account or access to the Services at its reasonable discretion, with or without notice where legally permitted.

When we terminate or suspend your account, we will, if feasible, inform you of the reason (unless we are legally prevented from doing so, or if giving details would interfere with enforcement measures or other Users’ privacy). Suspension (temporarily disabling your access) may occur as a preliminary step to investigate issues or wait for you to resolve a problem (like a billing issue or security compromise). If after suspension the issue isn’t resolved, we may proceed to termination.

Effect of Termination: Upon termination of this Agreement for any reason:

No Refund on Termination for Breach: If this Agreement is terminated due to your breach of the terms (for example, you were using the platform for prohibited activities), Company reserves the right (to the extent permitted by law) to refuse any refund for fees paid. In fact, if your breach caused damages or costs to us, we may seek compensation (see below about damages). If you terminate the agreement or simply stop using the Service, standard refund policies apply (generally, no refund for the unused term unless required by applicable consumer law for early termination or cooling-off rights).

Liability for Damages: Termination of this Agreement shall not limit Company’s right to seek any remedies available at law or equity for your breach of this Agreement. If your actions have caused us or others harm, you may be liable for such harm even after termination. For example, if you engaged in activities that resulted in legal claims or fines against us, you might owe us for those costs, and we can still pursue legal action against you after termination.

Notice of Termination: Where we choose to terminate without cause (not due to your breach), we will provide you with notice (for example, an email saying the Service or your account will be terminated by X date). Where we terminate for cause (due to your breach or misconduct), we may do so immediately or with notice depending on severity. In some cases, we might give you an opportunity to cure the breach if it’s something fixable (for instance, remove infringing content you posted). If you fail to cure in the time provided (if any), we proceed with termination.

Appeal or Questions: If you believe your account was suspended or terminated in error, you may contact us to appeal the decision. We will review the situation and, if a mistake was made, reinstate your account. Our contact information is provided in Section 21 below.

Please note that terminating your account or this Agreement does not absolve you of any obligation to pay any outstanding fees or resolve any disputes that arose before termination. Those obligations remain.

We value our Users and aim to have a relationship that never reaches termination, but it’s important to have these provisions clear for those rare cases where it’s necessary.

20. Governing Law and Dispute Resolution

Governing Law: This Agreement, and any disputes arising out of or relating to it or the use of the Offerings, shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the Netherlands. We choose this governing law because Company is established in that jurisdiction and it provides a consistent legal framework for our operations. This choice of law applies regardless of your location, except that if you are a consumer in a country with mandatory consumer protection laws, you retain the benefit of those mandatory provisions (i.e., we are not attempting to deprive you of the protections that your local law mandates, to the extent those apply).

Jurisdiction and Venue: In the event of any dispute, claim, or controversy arising out of or relating to this Agreement or your use of the Offerings that cannot be resolved amicably, the parties agree to submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the competent courts of the Netherlands, without prejudice to any mandatory consumer rights under applicable law.

Consumer Disputes: If you are using the Offerings as an individual consumer (for personal, non-business use), you may have additional avenues for dispute resolution under consumer protection laws. Specifically:

Injunctive Relief: Notwithstanding the above, Company retains the right to seek injunctive or equitable relief in any jurisdiction to prevent or stop irreparable harm (for example, unauthorized use of intellectual property, breach of confidentiality, or data security violations) since certain breaches may require immediate action in appropriate courts.

Limitation on Claims: To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, any cause of action or claim arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the Offerings must be brought within one (1) year from the date on which the claimant knew or reasonably should have known of the facts giving rise to the claim unless prohibited by mandatory consumer protection law.

Legal Fees: Each party shall bear its own legal costs and attorneys’ fees, unless otherwise required by applicable law or expressly ordered by a competent court.

Language of Proceedings: Proceedings shall be conducted exclusively in English. The parties expressly waive any right to require proceedings in any other language, to the extent permitted by applicable law.

By using the Offerings, you agree to resolve any disputes with Company as specified above. We hope and strive that no disputes will occur and that you will be satisfied with our Service. If you ever feel otherwise, please contact us and we will do our best to address your concerns in good faith.
