We regularly test new features in order to provide enhanced services and free or paid options to users who want to take advantage of them. We may also, from time to time, change or discontinue offering certain types of Purchases.

6 Subscription procedure and conditions
6.1 General
Depending on your location and how you access the Services (e.g. via computer, mobile device, or app on iOS or Android), Purchases may be made directly on our Services (e.g. via payment card, PayPal, etc.), through mobile operators, or through in-app payment systems (such as the App Store/Google Play). When you choose to make a Purchase, you are asked to confirm this with the relevant payment provider. Your payment method, such as a credit card or your third-party account, such as Apple Pay/Google Play in the App Store/Google Play (the user’s “Payment Method”), will be charged the amounts displayed for the Purchase(s) you have selected and you authorize us and/or Apple/Google or another third party account (as applicable) to charge you.
The Purchase is confirmed at the time the financial transaction is authorized and confirmed with your bank or third-party account (such as mobile operators or Apple/Google App Store/Google Store).
6.2 Automatic renewal of the subscription; Automatic payment by card
In the event that you purchase a renewing recurring subscription (a “Subscription”), your Payment Method will continue to be charged for the Subscription until the current Subscription period expires. After your initial commitment period, and again after any subsequent commitment period, your Subscription automatically renews for an equivalent period, unless otherwise specified at the time of purchase. By purchasing a Subscription, you are contractually bound to continue recurring payments throughout the Subscription period and any current renewal period, until you terminate the automatic renewal of that Subscription.
We remind you that some Subscriptions are subject to special offers, under which the price is reduced for a given period before renewal at the standard price (without discount).
Your payment information is then stored and used to auto-renew the Subscription. You are free to update your Payment Method at any time. We may also update your Payment Method in the database provided by the relevant payment provider. By agreeing to our Terms of Use, you authorize us to continue to collect payments due for each Purchase (whether payment or renewal) following any updates to your Payment Method.
Any objection relating to a payment already made should be addressed to our Customer Service at the address mentioned in the “Requests and Complaints” section below if you made your Purchase directly on our Services. You may withdraw your consent to automatic card payments at any time without conditions. However, we would like to point out that you are still responsible for paying any outstanding amounts due to us until the end of the current Subscription period, provided that you have also cancelled the automatic renewal of your Subscription.
6.3 Right of withdrawal immediately after purchase
In accordance with Article L.221-18 of the FRENCH Consumer Code, you have a period of fourteen days from the day following a Purchase to exercise your right of withdrawal (without penalty and without reason) by completing the withdrawal form available here or by writing to the e-mail address indicated in the “Requests and complaints” section below.
Subscriptions begin upon confirmation of the Purchase. You may, if you wish, access the Services immediately without waiting for the end of the withdrawal period, in accordance with Article L.221-25 of the Consumer Code.
In any case, if you log in to your account and use the Services before the end of the withdrawal period, this first connection constitutes an express request by you to have immediate access to the Services. Immediate access to the Services does not deprive you of your right of withdrawal, which remains valid until the expiry of the fourteen-day period. However, if you use a paid service and subsequently ask us to cancel it during the cooling-off period, each day of use is payable and we will refund you on a pro rata basis.
The refund will be made within 14 days of the date we were informed of your decision to withdraw and is processed with the same Payment Method you used for the original Purchase.
If you purchased a Paid Service through the App Store/Google Play and wish to cancel it within 14 days of purchase, cancellations and refunds are processed by Apple/Google under Apple/Google’s own terms and conditions, over which we have no control. To request a refund, you must log in to your Apple/Google account and follow Apple/Google’s cancellation and refund instructions.
6.4 Additional Third Party Services
The Services may contain advertisements and promotions offered on third-party platforms and external resources such as Apple/Google websites or mobile applications, social networks, etc. (“Third Party Platforms”). We cannot be held responsible for the availability (or unavailability) of these Third Party Platforms. In the event that you choose to interact with Third Party Platforms made available through our Services, the terms of such platforms govern their relationship with you. We cannot be held responsible for the terms or actions of Third Party Platforms.
- Termination of the Subscription – Suspension of profile – Closure of account by the user
- Termination of the Subscription (cancellation of automatic renewal)
The automatic renewal of a Subscription may be interrupted between 24 hours after purchase and at least 48 hours before the renewal of the Subscription. We retain all monies debited from your Payment Method until the end of the current Subscription period.
Deleting our app from your device does not terminate your Subscription. If you want to stop auto-renewal, you must log in to your account and follow the instructions.
Under Articles L 215-1 and L241-3 of the Consumer Code, “For contracts for the provision of services concluded for a fixed period with a tacit renewal clause, the professional service provider informs the consumer in writing, by dedicated nominative letter or e-mail, at the earliest three months and at the latest one month before the end of the period authorizing the rejection of the renewal, the possibility of not renewing the contract he has concluded with a tacit renewal clause. This information, delivered in clear and comprehensible terms, mentions, in a visible box, the deadline for termination. Where this information has not been sent to him in accordance with the provisions of the first subparagraph, the consumer may terminate the contract free of charge at any time from the date of renewal. Advances made after the last renewal date or, in the case of contracts of indefinite duration, after the date of conversion of the initial fixed-term contract, shall in this case be reimbursed within thirty days of the date of termination, less the sums corresponding, until that date, to the performance of the contract. The provisions of this Article shall apply without prejudice to those which make certain contracts legally subject to special rules concerning consumer information. In the absence of repayment under the conditions provided for above, the sums due shall bear interest at the legal rate“.
Thus, we will inform you, by email sent no earlier than three months and no later than one month before the end of the initial Subscription, of the renewal of this Subscription, as well as the possibility of cancelling it free of charge. In addition, information on the expiry of the Subscription is provided to you in the “My Account” section.
Once auto-renewal is turned off, you can continue to use your Subscription until the expiration date. Any amount remaining due on the total price of the Subscription remains due and payable until the end of the current Subscription period. You no longer have access to the Subscription as of the expiry date of the current Subscription. However, you still have access to the free features.
6.5 Non-renewal of Subscriptions made through the Apple Store/Google Play
In the event that you have made a Purchase through Apple/Google, automatic renewals and terminations are managed by Apple/Google under its own terms and conditions, over which we have no control. To request termination of a Paid Service, you must log in to your Apple/Google account and follow Apple/Google’s instructions.
6.6 Account termination/deletion and profile closure
You may close your account on the Services at any time by following the instructions available in your “My Account” section. In the event that you encounter any difficulties, you are invited to contact Customer Service who are authorized to do so on your behalf. You may no longer use your account, including making any Purchase, from the business day following any closure request. However, all payments under the Subscription remain due and payable for the remaining portion of the current period.
When you close your account, you will receive a confirmation email.
