These are the terms and conditions for:

Simply Fluent App (Android and iOS version - Available on Google Play and App Store)
https://www.simplyfluent.com

By using the platform, you agree to be bound by these terms and conditions and our privacy policy. In these terms and conditions, the words "platform" and "application" refer to the Simply Fluent application, "we", "us", "our" and "Simply Fluent" refer to Simply Fluent OÜ, and "user", "you" and "your" refer to you, the Simply Fluent user.

The following terms and conditions apply to your use of the platform. This includes mobile and tablet versions, as well as any other version of Simply Fluent accessible via desktop, mobile, tablet, social media, or other devices.

1. Acceptance of Terms

By registering and using the platform, you agree to be bound by this agreement. If you do not accept the terms of this agreement, you should not use the platform and must discontinue use of the service immediately.

We may modify this agreement from time to time, and such modifications shall be effective upon posting on the platform. You agree to be bound by any changes to these terms and conditions when you use Simply Fluent after any modifications are posted. Therefore, it is important that you review this agreement regularly.

You represent and warrant that your use of the platform does not violate any applicable law or regulation. Simply Fluent may, in its sole discretion, refuse to offer the services to any user and change its eligibility criteria at any time. This provision is void where prohibited by law, and the right to access the service and the platform is revoked in such jurisdictions.

The platform may only be used in compliance with these terms and all applicable local, state, national, and international laws, rules, and regulations.

2. Account

Users can register and sign in to the platform through their Google and Apple accounts, or through email. Simply Fluent will send a link to the email address provided by the user. Upon logging in through the link sent to the user's email, the application will automatically open and the user account will be created.

You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account information and are fully responsible for all activities that occur under your account. You agree to immediately notify Simply Fluent of any unauthorized use of your account or any other breach of security. You may never use another user's account without Simply Fluent's prior authorization. Simply Fluent will not be liable for any loss or damage arising from your failure to comply with this agreement.

By providing Simply Fluent with your email address, you consent to our use of your email address to send you notices about the platform. We may also use your email address to send you notifications and other messages, such as changes to service features, news, and special content. If you do not wish to receive these emails, you may opt-out by sending us your withdrawal request via the contact information or by using the "unsubscribe" option in the emails. Opting out may prevent you from receiving emails about updates, news, or special content.

Users may cancel their accounts at any time and for any reason by following the instructions on the platform or by sending us their request through our contact information. Termination will only result in the deletion of the account and all personal data granted to Simply Fluent, except for personal data related to or necessary for processing payments or fulfilling any legal obligations. This retention is in accordance with GDPR and other applicable data protection laws.

Simply Fluent reserves the right to terminate your account or your access immediately, with or without notice, and without liability to you, if Simply Fluent believes that you have breached any of these terms, furnished Simply Fluent with false or misleading information, or interfered with the use of the platform or the service by others.

3. Subscriptions

Most of the platform's functionalities are available through paid subscriptions. Users will be able to access a trial plan before upgrading to a paid plan. Users may cancel the trial period at any time before upgrading to a paid subscription plan.

When a user places an order for a subscription, the user agrees to purchase the subscription for the price advertised on the platform at the time of purchase. Please check the price and features of each subscription before placing an order.

Simply Fluent OÜ may cancel any subscription sale and may change or discontinue subscription availability at any time at its sole discretion. If a purchase for a subscription is revoked, any payment made will be refunded in full. This does not affect your statutory rights.

Automatic Renewals

Subscriptions include automatic recurring payments. You authorize Simply Fluent OÜ to renew your subscription and to charge you on a periodic and progressive basis. The subscription billing date is the date on which you purchase the subscription and make your first payment. On the relevant billing date, you will automatically be charged for the relevant subscription fee.

The subscription will remain active until you cancel it or we terminate it. You must cancel your subscription before it renews to avoid the next billing period. We will bill you for the subscription fee using the payment method you chose during registration and subscription purchase.

Subscriptions will automatically renew for an additional period unless canceled prior to the next billing period. To cancel subscriptions, users must submit a cancellation request through the platform where the subscription was initiated, and the subscription will be canceled for the next billing period.

If a subscription is canceled, the user will be able to continue to use the paid features of the platform corresponding to the subscription until the next billing period, after which the subscription and access to the paid features of the platform will be canceled.

Payment Processing

In connection with the processing of payments for subscriptions, we share your name, email, and phone number with RevenueCat, our payment processor. This information is shared for the sole purpose of processing your subscription payments and is handled in accordance with our privacy policy.

4. Payments

Payment for subscriptions shall be made through in-app purchases (Google Play and App Store). Subscriptions will be activated immediately after completing the payment process, except for the trial period which will be activated once the user registers on the platform.

Payment for subscriptions will be charged to the payment method associated with your Google Play or App Store account. Receipt of transactions is handled by these platforms according to their terms and conditions.

If you find any inconsistencies in your billing, please contact us via our contact details or you can make a complaint via the customer service of the relevant payment platform.

If your card is declined, you will receive an error message. No payment will be charged to your card and no order will be processed. There may be a pending transaction on your account until your card issuing bank withdraws the authorization. This usually takes 2 to 5 working days. Your card may be declined for several reasons, such as insufficient funds, AVS (Address Verification System) mismatch, or you have entered an incorrect security code.

If your payment is declined, you will need to provide an alternative payment method or provide another card on which the payment can be loaded and processed.

Your payment details will be treated and safeguarded securely and for the sole purpose of processing the purchase of the subscriptions. Simply Fluent reserves the right to engage any payment platform available on the market, which processes your data for the sole purpose of processing the purchase of the subscriptions.

5. User Content and Storage

Imported Books and Documents

Subscribing users who import books or other documents acknowledge that these files will be stored on third-party servers (Wasabi) to enable synchronization across their devices. This data will be managed in accordance with our privacy policy.

Upon account deletion, all imported files will be marked for deletion from our systems and the third-party servers. However, please note that Wasabi (our storage provider) may retain deleted files for a limited period in accordance with their data retention policies.
Upon subscription deactivation (while the account remains active), imported files will be retained for a period of 6 months. This retention allows users the opportunity to reactivate their subscription and regain access to their files. After this 6-month period, the imported files may be subject to deletion.
