Terms of Use
When these Terms mention "Service Provider," "Company," "we," "us," or "our," it refers to Jan Hedwig, who is responsible for Witsy under these Terms. These Terms constitute a legally binding agreement between Witsy and you, regulating your use of the website at https://getwitsy.co(the "Website"), the Witsy mobile application (the "App"), and related services, including all information, text, graphics, software, emails, summaries, recommendations, flashcards, AI feedback, and learning content (the "Content"). Collectively, the Website, App, Content, and our services are referred to as the "Services".
This is a freemium service and may include subscription services that automatically renew. We provide information about subscription terms at or near the point of purchase. Please read these Terms, especially Section 15 "Refund & Cancellation," before starting a free trial or purchasing any auto-renewing subscription services. To avoid charges, you must cancel your subscription or trial at least 24 hours before the end of the free trial or the current subscription period. Deleting the App does not cancel subscriptions or free trials.
Important notice for U.S. customers: when you agree to these Terms, you agree, with limited exception, to resolve disputes through the dispute resolution process described in Section 13 rather than through a class action. Please review Section 13 "Dispute Resolution & Governing Law" below for details.
These Terms also contain important disclaimers, warranty disclaimers, liability limitations, and restrictions on your use of the Services.

We may change these Terms on this page of the Website. We may notify you of critical changes via email or by posting notifications on the Services, but are not obliged to do so in every case. Any changes will be notified by updating the "Last updated" date of these Terms, and you waive any right to receive specific notice of each change. If you do not agree to the changes, you should stop using the Services. Continued use of the Services after changes to these Terms indicates acceptance.

This section applies to any dispute, which means any disagreement, action, or controversy between you and Witsy concerning the Services or these Terms, whether based on contract, warranty, tort, statute, regulation, or any other legal or equitable basis.
Notice of Dispute
In the event of a dispute, you or Witsy must give the other party written notice of the dispute, including the name and contact information of the party giving the notice, the facts giving rise to the dispute, and the relief requested. You must send any Notice of Dispute via email to info@getwitsy.co. We will send any Notice of Dispute to you by mail if available, or otherwise via email.

Governing Law and Jurisdiction
If the dispute is not resolved through informal negotiation within fifty (50) days, either party may bring an action in court. These Terms shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws applicable to the Service Provider, without regard to conflict of law principles, unless mandatory consumer protection laws require otherwise.
14. Miscellaneous
No delay or omission by Witsy in exercising any rights under these Terms will impair such rights or be a waiver. A waiver by Witsy of any breach will not be a waiver of any subsequent breach.

These Terms set forth the entire agreement between you and Witsy and supersede all prior agreements regarding its subject matter.

15. Refund & Cancellation
I. Subscription
Witsy and the Website may be provided on a free basis with access to basic features. Access to unlimited or premium features may require a paid subscription. The full list of Witsy's features and pricing will be provided in the App, on the Website, or at the point of purchase before the purchase. You can choose from available subscription options. Prices may vary by country, currency, taxes, marketplace, or platform. Your subscription may automatically renew within 24 hours before the current subscription period ends unless canceled.
II. Free Tier
You may have the opportunity to use free tier features, previews, trials, or limited learning sessions. To continue using premium features after this, you may need to choose one of the paid subscription plans available.
III. Payment Methods
You may pay for your subscription through the Apple App Store, Google Play Store, or any other payment method made available by Witsy. Payment will be charged to the payment method associated with the selected marketplace or provider at the time of purchase. You authorize the applicable provider to charge the subscription fees for the plan you choose.
IV. Cancellation
Canceling your subscription means that automatic renewal will be disabled, but you may still have access to subscription features for the remaining time of your then-current period. Deleting the App does not cancel subscriptions. To manage or cancel a subscription, use the Apple App Store, Google Play Store, or the provider through which you purchased the subscription. To avoid being charged for your next billing period, cancel your subscription at least 24 hours before your next billing date. Subscription fees are non-refundable except as required by law or by the applicable marketplace policy.
V. Refunds
All purchases made through the App or Website involve digital content and are considered non-refundable and non-exchangeable, unless otherwise required by law or specifically stated in this policy. When you complete a purchase, the digital service may be made available immediately, and you acknowledge that the service is considered performed once delivered.
EU Consumer Notice: If you are a resident of the European Union, you may have the right to withdraw from a digital content purchase within fourteen (14) days without providing a reason or incurring any cost. However, this right may no longer apply once the digital content has been delivered with your express consent and your acknowledgment that you lose your right of withdrawal. By completing your purchase, you expressly consent to the immediate performance of the digital service and confirm that you waive your right of withdrawal once the content is made available, except where mandatory law provides otherwise.
If you experience persistent technical difficulties that are solely attributable to our platform and not to user-side factors, such as device compatibility, connectivity, or outdated software, and where required by consumer protection laws, you may be eligible for a discretionary refund. In such cases, you may need to provide appropriate documentation, such as screenshots or error logs, evidencing the issue.
For purchases made through digital distribution platforms such as Google Play Store or Apple App Store, the refund policies of the respective platforms apply. You are encouraged to contact the relevant store directly for any refund requests related to those purchases.
VI. Chargebacks
If, at any time, you initiate a chargeback or otherwise reverse any payment of applicable subscription fees in your account, we may disable or terminate your account immediately at our sole discretion for breach of your payment obligations. We reserve the right to dispute any chargeback received, including by providing the relevant financial institution with information proving that the payment in question was authorized by the user responsible for such chargeback.
16. Records & Integrity
In case of disputes that may arise from the use of Witsy, electronic and commercial records, including but not limited to user information, logs, subscription records, and email notifications, may be used as evidence to the extent permitted by applicable law.
If any court or administrative authority decides that various provisions of these Terms are unlawful, the other provisions will remain valid and in force.
