Terms of Service
last updated March 26, 2023
Welcome to 4improve! 4improve Limited (“4improve” or “we”) provides our
website located at www.4improve.io (the “Site”), and mobile applications
(“App”), and our relaxation and self-improvement services accessible via our
Site and App (collectively, the “Services”), and items and programs that can be
purchased through the Services (“Products”). Please read these Terms of Service
carefully because they govern your purchase and use of our Services and
Products. For contact information and other corporate details of 4improve,
please see the “Contact Us” section at the end of these Terms. If you have
questions regarding our Services, or publication of the Services, or any other
matter relating to the Services, please contact us using the contact
information.
Scope of Terms
These Terms apply to your use of the App and all other Products and
Services, including any content made available therein. Any additional terms
that you agree to in relation to some of our Services or Products become part
of your agreement with us if you use those Services and Products. The legal
relationship between 4improve and the user for the use of the Services and
Products is exclusively subject to these Terms and any such additional terms.
If there is a conflict between these Terms and any such additional terms, the
additional terms will control for that conflict. Any conflicting terms provided
by you or any other user do not apply, even if we do not object to them. If you
don’t agree to be bound by these Terms, you may not use the Services or
Products.
Privacy Policy
Please refer to our privacy policy (https://4improve.io/privacy.php) for
information on how we collect, use, and disclose information from our users. You
acknowledge and agree that your use of the Services is subject to our Privacy
Policy.
When the user allows the app to sync with google fit, we track the
user’s steps which allows them to see how many steps they have walked in the
day, and the month. We need to collect this data so that we can chart the
user’s progress, which allows them to see progress over the year. The user will
get 50 coins every 500 steps. We are using the coin system to incentivize the
users to get fitter. We are currently working with partners, so in the future,
the user will be able to redeem discounts with their coins. The coins are also
used to create a Leaderboard which allows users to compete against one another
and brings a fun element into the app.
Changes to Terms of Services
We may modify the Terms, from time to time with effect for the future
for valid reasons, such as to, for example, reflect changes to our Services or
market conditions (e.g., adding new features or benefits to our Services,
retiring certain features of certain Services) or for legal, regulatory or
security reasons. If we do so, we’ll provide advance notice of such changes,
such as by providing notice through email or via the Services, or by updating
the “Last Updated” date above and posting the modified Terms on the Site. If we
make changes to these Terms, such changes will apply on a going-forward basis,
and, unless we say otherwise in our notice, the amended Terms will be effective
immediately. It’s important that you review the Terms whenever we modify them
because if you continue to use the Services or Products after we have posted
modified Terms on the Site, you are indicating to us that you agree to be bound
by the modified Terms. If you don’t agree to be bound by the modified Terms,
then you may not use the Services anymore. Because our Services are evolving
over time we may change or discontinue all or any part of the Services, at any
time and without notice, at our sole discretion.
Modifying and Terminating our Services and Products
Subject to the terms of this section, we may change or discontinue all
or any part of the Services or Products at any time. To be clear, nothing in
these Terms affects any mandatory legal rights and remedies you have under the
applicable law of your jurisdiction. If any such change or discontinuance would
unreasonably disadvantage you or otherwise significantly disturb the
contractual balance between the parties, including changes to the essential
characteristics of the Service, you can object by terminating your
Subscription. If you terminate your Subscription (in any case), you will not be
entitled to a refund. Additionally, we are not responsible for any loss or harm
related to your inability to access our Services and Products.
Arbitration Notice
Unless you opt out of arbitration within 30 days of the date you first
agree to these terms by following the opt-out procedure specified in the
“Arbitration” section below, and except for certain types of disputes described
in the “Arbitration“ section below, you agree that disputes between you and 4improve
will be resolved by binding, individual arbitration and you are waiving your
right to a trial by jury or to participate as a plaintiff or class member in
any purported class action or representative proceeding.
Who May Use the Services
Eligibility
You may use the Services only if you are 4 years or older and are not
barred from using the Services under applicable law. If you are under 18 years
of age (or the age of legal majority where you live), you may use our Services
or Products only under the supervision of a parent or legal guardian who agrees
to be bound by these Terms. Any parent or legal guardian of a user under the
age of 18 (or the age of legal majority) who has reviewed these Terms as
required by the previous sentence, hereby agrees to be fully responsible for
the acts or omissions of such user in relation to our Services and Products. If
you use our Services or Products on behalf of another person or entity, (a) all
references to “you” throughout these Terms will include that person or entity, (b)
you represent that you are authorised to accept these Terms on that person’s or
entity’s behalf, and (c) in the event you, the person or entity violates these
Terms, both you and the other person or entity agree to be jointly and
severally responsible and liable for any such violation. To make a purchase via
the Services (described in the Section titles “Purchases” below), you must be
18 years or older and capable of forming a binding contract. Certain Services
may not be available in all jurisdictions, and we reserve the right to impose
additional eligibility requirements, which will be provided in advance of your
acceptance of such requirements.
Account Registration and Security
If you want to use certain features of the Services or certain Products,
including if you want to sign up for a free trial or purchase a subscription,
you’ll have to create an account (“Account”). You can do this via the App, or
through your account with certain third-party social networking services such as
Facebook (each, an “SNS Account”). If you choose the SNS Account option we’ll
create your Account by extracting from your SNS Account certain personal
information such as your name and email address and other personal information
that your privacy settings on the SNS Account permit us to access.
If you register for an Account via the App, you must provide us with
accurate, complete, and up-to-date information and promptly update such
information, as needed, to keep it accurate, complete, and up-to-date. If you
don’t, we might have to suspend or terminate your Account. You will maintain
the security of your Account and Account password and won’t disclose your
Account password to anyone. You will notify us immediately if you discover or
suspect any unauthorised use of your Account. We reserve the right to reclaim
usernames, including on behalf of businesses or individuals that hold legal
claim, including trademark rights, in those usernames. You’re responsible for
all activities that occur under your Account, whether or not you know about
them.
Using the Services
You understand and agree that the Services, Products, and any other
information you learn from 4improve are not intended, designed, or implied to
diagnose, prevent, or treat any condition or disease, to ascertain the
state of your health, or to be a substitute for professional medical care.
Not all activities described in the Services or Products are suitable for
everyone. Do not use the Services while driving, operating heavy machinery, or
performing other tasks that require attention and concentration. You understand
and agree that you are solely responsible for your use of the Services.
Purchases
Fees for Subscriptions and Products
4improve offers certain enhanced features of the Services which you can
access by purchasing a subscription. When you purchase a Subscription or a
Product (each, a “Transaction”), we may ask you to supply additional information
relevant to your Transaction, such as your credit card number, the expiration
date of your credit card, and your address(es) for billing (collectively,
“Payment Information”). You represent and warrant that you have the legal right
to use all payment method(s) represented by any such Payment Information. The
amounts due and payable by you for a Transaction through the Services will be
presented to you before you place your order, if you choose to initiate a
Transaction through the Services, you authorise us to provide you Payment
Information to third-party service providers so we can complete your
Transaction and agree (x) to pay the applicable fees and any taxes specified at
the time of purchase; (y) that 4improve may charge your credit card or
third-party payment processing account, including, but not limited to, your
account with the app store or distribution platform (like the Apple App Store,
Google Play, or the Amazon Appstore) where the App is made available (each, an
“App Provider”), may be charged; and (z) to bear any additional charges that
your App Provider, bank or other financial service providers may levy on you.
You’ll receive a confirmation email after we confirm the payment for your
order. Your order is not binding on 4improve until accepted and confirmed by
4improve. All payments made are non-refundable and non-transferable except as
expressly provided in these Terms. If you have any concerns or objections
regarding charges, you will raise them with us first and you will not cancel or
reject any credit card or third-party payment processing changes unless you
have made a reasonable attempt at resolving the matter directly with 4improve.
4improve reserves the right to not process or cancel your order in certain
circumstances, for example, if your credit card is declined, if we suspect the
request or order is fraudulent, or in other circumstances 4improve deems
appropriate in its reasonable discretion. 4improve also reserves the right, in
its sole discretion, to take steps to verify your identity in connection with
your order in accordance with requirements under applicable data protection
law. You may need to provide additional information to verify your identity
before completing your transaction (such information is included within the
definition of Payment Information). 4improve will either not charge you or
refund the charges we do not process or cancel.
Individual Subscriptions Automatically Renew Until You Cancel & How
to Cancel Your Subscription
The timing of your payment and the automatic renewal of your
subscription will depend on the duration of your subscription period and are
subject to cancellation rights specified in these Terms. The yearly
subscription, which renews automatically for an additional subscription period
equal in length to the expiring subscription period until you cancel, all
amounts are payable: (a) at the beginning of the subscription period and (b) at
the time of each renewal until you cancel, using the Payment Information you
have provided. You must cancel your subscription before it renews to avoid the
billing of the fees for the next subscription period. If you used a promo code,
coupon code, or other discounts to sign up for a subscription, your subscription
will automatically renew at the then-current price at the end of the
discounted-price period, except where another promotional offer applies to you.
Except as expressly provided in these Terms, you will continue to receive the
Services until the end of your then-current subscription period.
Free Trials
Your subscriptions may start with a free trial (the “Free Trial”). If we
offer you a free trial, the specific terms of your free trial will be provided
in the marketing materials describing the particular trial or at registration.
Free Trials are for new customers only. 4improve reserves the right, in its
reasonable discretion, to determine your Free Trial eligibility and to modify
or cancel the terms offered for its Free Trials (on a going-forward basis for
new Free Trials) at any time. Once your Free Trial ends, we (or our third-party
payment processor) will begin billing your designated payment method on a
recurring basis for your subscription (plus any applicable taxes and other
charges specified at the time of purchase) for as long as your subscription continues,
unless you cancel your subscription prior to the end of your free trial. Your
Free Trial period in no way limits the rights you are entitled to within the
scope of your statutory right of withdrawal.
Changes to Price Terms for Subscriptions and Products
4improve may adjust the prices for ongoing contracts/services on the
basis of these Terms, at its reasonable discretion, and in line with the
development of the costs, which are decisive for the price calculation. Any
such price increase or decrease will apply to the new renewal period for the
Subscription. If you do not agree to the price, you may terminate your
Subscription before the new renewal period begins. A price increase or decrease
shall be considered, if, for example, the costs for the procurement of
hardware, software, and energy, the use of communication networks, or labour
costs increase or decrease or if other changes in the economic or legal
framework conditions lead to a changed cost situation. 4improve shall inform
the Customer about changes in the price in writing at least 30 days before the
changes come into effect. Prices for new contracts for Services and prices of
Products may be changed at any time at the sole discretion of 4improve.
Future Functionality
You agree that your purchases are not contingent on the delivery of any
future functionality, or content features, or dependent on any oral or written
public comments made by 4improve regarding future functionality or features.
Feedback
We welcome feedback, comments, and suggestions for improvements to the
Services or Products (“Feedback”). You can submit Feedback by emailing us
at praharshparikh@yellowpanther.co.uk or on the feedback page in
the settings section of the App. By submitting or providing any feedback, you
agree that your submissions are voluntary, gratuitous, and without restriction,
and will not place 4improve under any obligations to you or any other party. You
grant to us a non-exclusive, worldwide, perpetual, irrevocable, fully-paid,
royalty-free, sub-licensable, and transferable license under any and all
intellectual property rights that you own or control to use, copy, modify,
create derivative works based upon and otherwise exploit the Feedback for any
purpose, commercial or otherwise, without acknowledgment or compensation to
you, including, without limitation, to develop, copy, publish, or improve the
Feedback in 4improve’s sole discretion. You understand that 4improve may treat
Feedback as nonconfidential. 4improve does not waive any rights to use similar
or related ideas previously known to 4improve, developed by its employees, or
obtained from other sources.
