14. Cost of Service

The Services offered by DietSensor as part of the Basic Subscription are free.

The Services proposed by DietSensor as part of the Premium Subscription and the Ultimate Subscription are determined according to the current rates, as stated on the website and the mobile application at the time of the User’s subscription. Prices are listed in US dollars excluding tax.

These prices are firm and non-revisable over the course of a given subscription. At the end of the subscription period and in the event of renewal, the applicable prices are those published on the website or on the mobile application on the day of the renewal.

15. Payment terms 

15.1 Payment

The PREMIUM and ULTIMATE plans offered through the DietSensor app are subscriptions that must be purchased. In subscribing to a purchasable service and using it, the User agrees to our terms and all additional terms, as provided herein. Payment is secured and made through Apple Pay or Google Pay directly through your mobile phone, or through any alternative payment mode available. Except if specified as non-renewable upon purchase, Services are subscribed for a defined period and billing is automatically renewed, unless the User cancels his/her subscription through the subscription management option proposed by Apple and Google. This can be done either by phone or online.

The User agrees to pay the fees and other incurred charges that apply to purchased Services, immediately upon subscription, or, when appropriate, at the end of the free trial period.  After selecting their payment method, the User formally authorizes DietSensor (or the payment intermediary) to debit fees related to the purchase of services. Any purchase of services is irrevocable and non-refundable.

The User also agrees to waive his/her right of withdrawal after his/her purchase, to the extent that this right exists in the jurisdiction of his/her country of residence. This way the User will have immediate access to the services they have purchased.

 15.2 Withdrawal and annulment

If the User does not pay the fees related to his/her use of purchased services, for example because his/her credit card has expired, DietSensor or the payment intermediary may attempt to alert him/her and seek to resolve the issue. However, we reserve the right to disable or terminate User access to purchasable services without prior notice.

Purchasable services can be terminated at any time. For more information about withdrawal terms, please refer to the subscription section in the application. Cancellation becomes effective at the end of the ongoing invoicing period, and services are provided until this date. The User is not eligible for fee refunds incurred during the period of service. It is the User’s responsibility to cancel service whether he/she actively uses the service or not.

The User should cancel purchased services before the end of a free or reduced-rate period, if he/she does not wish to pay for the purchasable service at the normal rate.

 15.3 Price editing

DietSensor may change the prices of Premium and Ultimate services at any time, to the extent allowed by the applicable law. The User may access prices through the App at the time of subscription. DietSensor will give reasonable prior notice by e-mail if prices are modified over the period of subscription. If new prices are not suitable to the User, he/she can terminate the purchasable services prior to the activation of the price adjustment.

 15.4 Discount, promotional and gift codes

If the User has received a discount code, a promotional code or a gift code for a purchasable service, the following terms shall be applied, regardless of the general terms of use. To use a discount code or a promotional code, the User should enter the applicable code during the purchase process into the DietSensor application. Any discount codes, promotional codes and/or gift codes may only be used to subscribe to purchasable services, and cannot be applied if he/she has already subscribed to purchasable services. Discount codes, promotional codes and/or gift codes cannot be used with any other discount, promotion, sale or coupon. Discount codes, promotional codes and/or gift codes cannot be exchanged, refunded, replaced or exchanged for cash or advance payment. A means of payment may be required to use a discount or promotional code. The User should use a discount code, promotional code and/or gift code before its expiry date. Expired codes cannot be refunded or extended. The User should also terminate services before the end of a free or reduced-rate period, if he/she does not wish to pay for the purchasable service at the normal rate. The general terms of a discount code, promotional code and/or gift code may include further restrictions concerning their use, including, but not limited to, the type of subscription, the duration of free or reduced-rate service, the validity dates of the coupon and/or the purchased quantities. DietSensor reserves the right to cancel discounts and promotional coupons at any time.

 15.5 Free trials

From time to time, DietSensor offers free trials of certain purchasable services. A free trial gives access to purchasable services for a given period, according to the terms specified when the User activates the offer.

The User may be asked to choose a means of payment to activate the free trial. The User’s free trial starts when the means of payment have been entered. No fees will be charged before the end of the free trial period.

Unless the User terminates his/her subscription before the end of the free trial, or unless otherwise stated, his/her access to the pay service will continue automatically and the corresponding fees due for the pay service will be invoiced. Any incurred fees are irrevocable and non-refundable. DietSensor may send a reminder when the User’s free trial is about to end, however DietSensor is not obliged to do so. It is the User’s responsibility to be aware of the expiry date of the free trial if he/she does not wish to pay for to the purchasable service after the end of the free trial period. This expiry date is found in the Subscription management section of the Application. In this case, the User should terminate his/her subscription before the end of the free trial period. According to the purchasable service his/her free trial is linked to, the User may lose access to this service either as soon as the agreement is terminated or at the end of the free trial period. After withdrawing from a free trial, it is not possible to resume the free trial period, even if the User didn’t use the service for the full duration of the offer. The rate for the purchasable service at the end of the free trial will remain the same as it was when the User first began, unless DietSensor indicates otherwise. DietSensor reserves the right to change or terminate a free trial offer and/or the access to purchasable services during the free trial or during use of any of these provisions, without prior notice or liability. The User cannot benefit from more than one free trial for a given pay service.

16. Online purchase of physical items 

If The User purchases items on DietSensor.com or through the DietSensor application, some additional terms concerning online business transactions may apply to these purchases. These terms are available on the purchase page. They provide information about our refund, exchange, restocking, and shipping policies and other related information. Please read through these policies before making any purchases.

17. Lack of withdrawal rights for services

The User expressly acknowledges and agrees that:

– The Services provided by DietSensor consist of digital content that is independent from any hardware support and that such content shall be provided by DietSensor immediately after the payment of the Services by the User and the activation of the mobile Application on his/her smartphone;

– In order to have immediate access to purchased services, the User formally waives his/her right to withdraw from the subscription after services have been purchased; to the extent that this right exists in the jurisdiction of his/her country of residence.

Therefore, no request for withdrawal shall be accepted during the subscription period.

18. Indemnification 

You agree to indemnify and hold harmless DietSensor and its parent, subsidiaries, and affiliates, and their owners, directors, officers, managers, employees, shareholders, agents, and licensors (“Indemnified Parties”), from and against all losses, expenses, damages and costs, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, resulting from any violation of the Terms, or the failure to fulfill any obligations relating to your use of the Services. You agree that the Indemnified Parties will have no liability in connection with any such breach or unauthorized use, and you agree to indemnify the Indemnified Parties from and against any and all claims, actions, causes of action (regardless of the form), losses, damages, awards, judgments, fines, costs, expenses, and attorneys’ fees (the “Claims”). You also agree to indemnify the Indemnified Parties and hold them harmless from and against any and all Claims arising out of your use of any information or other contents accessed from the Services or any Submission that you make or cause to be made, to the Services.

19. Arbitration of Claims 

With respect to any and all disputes arising out of or in connection with the Services or these Terms (including without limitation the Privacy Policy), DietSensor and you agree to negotiate in good faith and undertake reasonable efforts to cooperate with one another in order to achieve a mutually satisfactory resolution. If you and DietSensor do not resolve any dispute by informal negotiation, any other effort to resolve the dispute will be conducted exclusively by binding arbitration as described in this section. You are giving up the right to litigate (or participate in as a party or class member) all disputes in court before a judge or jury. Instead, all disputes will be resolved before a neutral arbitrator, whose decision will be final except for a limited right of appeal under the Federal Arbitration Act.

Any proceedings to resolve or litigate any dispute in any forum will be conducted solely on an individual basis. Neither you nor DietSensor will seek to have any dispute heard as a class action or in any other proceeding in which either party acts or proposes to act in a representative capacity. No arbitration or proceeding will be combined with another without the prior written consent of all parties to all affected arbitrations or proceedings.

Any arbitration necessary under this section will be held through confidential binding arbitration in accordance with the commercial rules of arbitration of the American Arbitration Association in Boston, Massachusetts. The arbitrator’s award shall be binding and may be entered as a judgment in a court of competent jurisdiction. You agree that DietSensor may seek any interim or preliminary relief from a court of competent jurisdiction in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts necessary to protect its rights or property pending the completion of arbitration.

To the extent permitted by law, any claim or dispute under these Terms must be filed within one year in an arbitration proceeding. The one-year period begins when the claim or notice of dispute first could be filed.

20. Governing Law 

This Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the United States and the State of Massachusetts. By using the Services, you waive any claims that may arise under the laws of other states, countries, territories or jurisdictions.

21. Other Jurisdictions

The Services are intended to comply with applicable laws and regulations in the United States. Other countries may have laws, regulatory requirements, and medical practices that differ from those in the United States.

22. Termination

DietSensor may terminate these Terms for any reason at any time. DietSensor reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to restrict, suspend, or terminate your access to and use of the Services, with or without prior notice. Otherwise applicable sections of the Terms shall survive termination. In addition to any termination rights, we reserve the right to enforce and prosecute any violations of these Terms.

23. Miscellaneous 

Supplemental Terms. In connection with your use of the Services, you may be asked to consent to policies or terms and conditions in addition to these Terms. Please read these supplemental policies and terms carefully before making any use of such portions of the Services. Any supplemental terms will not vary or replace these Terms regarding any use of the Services, unless otherwise expressly stated.

No Waiver. The failure of DietSensor to enforce any provisions of the Terms or to respond to a breach by you or other parties shall not in any way waive its rights to enforce subsequently any terms or conditions of the Terms or to act with respect with similar breaches.

No Partnership. You agree that no joint venture, partnership, employment, or agency relationship exists between you and DietSensor as a result of these Terms or your access to and use of the Services.

Entire Agreement. Unless otherwise specified herein, the Terms constitute the entire agreement between you and DietSensor and govern your use of the Services. If any portion of the Terms is held invalid or unenforceable, that portion shall be construed in a manner consistent with applicable law to reflect, as nearly as possible, the original intention of the parties, and the remaining portions shall remain in full force and effect.
