Terms & Conditions

These Terms & Conditions (“Terms”) govern your use of the sponti mobile app and the website at sponti.fyi (together, the “Service”). Please read them carefully. By creating an account or otherwise using the Service, you agree to these Terms.

1. Provider

Cocoa Ventures UG (haftungsbeschränkt)
Auguststr. 87, 10117 Berlin, Germany

2. What sponti is

sponti helps you and the people you know spend more time together. It lets you see who is free and roughly where, so spontaneous plans can happen — and it also lets you plan ahead, for example by inviting friends to a planned activity in the future. In short, the Service lets you share when you are available, see friends who are available, organise activities and invite people to them, and reach out to friends (for example via WhatsApp). The Service is provided for private, personal, non-commercial use.

3. The Service is free of charge

The sponti app is completely free to use. There are no fees, no subscriptions and no in-app purchases. Standard data charges from your mobile or internet provider may apply and are your responsibility. If we ever introduce optional paid features in the future, they will be clearly marked as such and will never be charged without your prior, separate consent.

4. Eligibility

You must be at least 16 years old and able to enter into a binding contract to use the Service. By using the Service you confirm that you meet these requirements.

5. Your account

You register with your mobile phone number, which we verify with a one-time code. You are responsible for keeping access to your account and phone number secure, and for the activity that takes place under your account. Please provide accurate information and keep it up to date. You may hold only one account at a time and may not impersonate anyone else.

6. Acceptable use

When using the Service, you agree not to:

• break the law or infringe the rights of others;
• harass, threaten, spam or otherwise harm other users, or contact people who do not wish to be contacted;
• upload content that is unlawful, offensive, misleading, or that you do not have the right to share;
• misuse other people’s data — including any contact information or location shared with you through the Service — for any purpose other than privately reaching out to them, and never for advertising, profiling or passing it on to third parties;
• attempt to gain unauthorised access to the Service, disrupt it, or scrape, copy or reverse-engineer it, except where such restriction is prohibited by mandatory law.

7. Your content

You keep all rights in the content you add (such as your profile picture, name and availability notes). You grant us the limited, non-exclusive right to host, store and display that content solely as needed to operate the Service and show it to the people you choose to share it with. You are responsible for the content you share and confirm you have the right to share it.

8. Third-party services

The Service relies on and links to third-party services — in particular WhatsApp (for verification and for reaching out), and the Apple App Store and Google Play. Your use of those services is governed by their own terms and privacy policies, over which we have no control.

9. Availability

The Service is offered “as is” and “as available”. It is an evolving product; we do not guarantee that it will be uninterrupted, error-free or available at all times, and we may modify, suspend or discontinue features from time to time. Where reasonable, we will give notice of significant changes.

10. Ending your use / account deletion

You may stop using the Service and delete your account at any time — from within the app, or by emailing support@sponti.fyi. Deleting your account ends this agreement. We may suspend or terminate your access if you materially or repeatedly breach these Terms, or where required by law; where reasonable and permitted we will give you notice.

11. Liability

We are liable without limitation for damages arising from injury to life, body or health, for damages caused intentionally or by gross negligence, and where we have assumed a guarantee or are liable under the German Product Liability Act (Produkthaftungsgesetz).

For slight negligence, we are only liable where we breach a material contractual obligation (an obligation whose fulfilment is essential to the proper performance of the contract and on whose observance you may regularly rely), and in that case our liability is limited to the damage that was foreseeable and typical for this kind of contract. Any further liability is excluded.

Because the Service is provided free of charge, the statutory limitations of liability for gratuitous contracts (§§ 521, 599 BGB) apply in your favour where more protective. The above limitations also apply to the personal liability of our legal representatives and employees. Statutory rights that cannot be limited remain unaffected.

12. Changes to these Terms

We may amend these Terms where there is a valid reason, for example to reflect changes to the Service or the law. We will notify you of material changes by appropriate means and, where legally required, ask for your consent. If you do not agree to the updated Terms, you may stop using the Service and delete your account.

13. Data protection

How we handle your personal data is explained in our Privacy Policy.

14. Governing law & dispute resolution

These Terms are governed by the law of the Federal Republic of Germany. If you are a consumer, this choice of law does not deprive you of the protection of mandatory provisions of the law of your country of habitual residence.

The European Commission provides a platform for online dispute resolution (ODR), available at https://ec.europa.eu/consumers/odr. We are neither obliged nor willing to participate in dispute-resolution proceedings before a consumer arbitration board (Verbraucher­schlichtungsstelle) within the meaning of the German VSBG.

15. Severability

Should any provision of these Terms be or become invalid, the validity of the remaining provisions shall not be affected.
