Last update: 22 Aug 2023

The following Terms of Service (“ToS”) regulate the terms and conditions of the services provided in relation to “Jordin” application (“Service”) by Pontly Solutions Kft. (having its registered seat at 1138 Budapest, Sólyatér utca 11., 2/3, Hungary, registered in the Hungarian company registry under the number 01-09-400216; hereinafter referred to as “we” or as the “Service Provider”). These ToS sets out the rights and obligations of the Service Provider and the user (hereinafter referred to as “you” or “User”) in connection with the use of the Service, regardless of the place of performance or the location of the User.

1. Definitions

App Store EULA means the Licensed Application End User License Agreement published by Apple at https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/

Carbon credit is a measurable, verifiable emission reduction from certified climate action projects. These projects reduce, remove or avoid greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions.

CO2 emissions per capita represent the average yearly emissions for an individual in a specific country or region. To determine this, the total yearly emissions of the country or region are divided by its entire population.

Production-based CO2 emissions (“CO2 emissions") is the commonly reported metric by countries, as that is the typically used method for setting goals and tracking advancement. This approach doesn't account for emissions linked to traded goods, therefore attributing emissions to the country where they originated. For instance, if Indonesia produces goods using coal and then sells them to Germany, the emissions are credited to Indonesia.

Climate actions refer to our purchase of carbon credits to offset CO2emissions. We determine the amount of these offsets using two factors: the users’ step goal achievements and the users’ subscription tier.

Fee means the monthly fee to be paid for using the Service according to the subscription packages described below in section 4.

We reserve the right to terminate the registration process if we do not have the right to access to the Apple Health application, which is essential for the provision of the Service as set out in our Privacy Policy.

You are only eligible to use the Service and fulfil the registration process if you are at least 18 years old.

You warrant that the information provided during registration is correct and up to date, and that you update your account with any the relevant information when necessary.

3. Description of Service

The main purpose of the Service is to motivate people to walk more. This extra motivation is achieved by generating personalised step goals for our users, indicating step related statistics for them and (with an active subscription) converting every step they take to climate actions.

To help this process, we might also provide additional challenges for you based on the collected data.

Disclaimer: These step goals, challenges or quests provided by our app are intended for general motivational purposes only and are not designed to be a substitute for professional medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment. Such figures are only general estimates made by us based on the data sourced from Apple Health application and generally available statistics data. Users should consult with a physician or other qualified healthcare professional before beginning any new exercise program or following any recommendations, particularly if they have any pre-existing health conditions or concerns. We assume no responsibility for any injury or adverse health effects resulting from the use or misuse of the recommendations and information provided by our application.

Our app aims to motivate you by the following factors when using the Service:

a) number of steps related challenges, updated on a weekly basis (“private goals”, “quests”);
b) converting your steps to climate actions as per set out in these ToS.

With an active subscription, your steps are converted to climate actions. Each day, your climate impact is calculated based on your subscription tier, combined with your step goal achievements for that day (percentage of completion). As you achieve your step goals day by day, you can continuously amplify the unlocked cumulative climate impact. Considering these aspects, we work out how much CO2 we will offset through carbon credits.

Disclaimer: We are proud to contribute to environmental efforts by purchasing carbon credits. These purchases are made by us and for our own account, based on the engagement and step goal achievements of our users within our app. It is important to clarify that these carbon credits are not bought for the user or on behalf of any individual user. We do not sell carbon credits or climate actions. The initiative is solely a commitment from us to support sustainability.

Remember, although climate actions with Jordin can lead to a positive impact on our climate, it is not a carbon-neutral ticket. We encourage you to keep making sustainable choices every day.

We undertake to support various climate action projects, by purchasing carbon credits as per detailed in these ToS. With regard to the obligation to purchase carbon credits, we agree to accomplish this undertaking within 70 days of the end of each month based on the completed month’s user activity.

By completing quests, you may increase your level in Jordin, which may be an indication of your overall progress, and which can be used to improve the user experience of our Service as set out from time to time by us.

By using our Service, we may present you with various aggregated data related to the overall positive climate impact we achieved through the activity of you and all other users of the application.

We confirm that the content of the Service is protected by copyright and is the intellectual property of the Service Provider. Please note that by using the Service and completing private goals or other quests, you may unlock texts or other written elements that are generated by artificial intelligence, and in such cases, the above copyright provision set out above may not apply.

4. Prices and payments

The Fee for the Service is payable on the basis of the current price list published in the Jordin application’s subscription screens. We will publish the applicable prices by the types of Service indicated as follows.

Monthly fee packages indicate the amount of maximum CO2 offset potential per day when completing your step challenges. Currently we offer one package, that allows us under the other conditions set out in these ToS, to convert your daily steps into climate actions, offsetting up to 1 kg of CO2 emissions per completed daily step goal.

We provide a trial period for the Service free of charge and with limited functionality for 10 days after the first registration for each package. After the expiry of this trial period, you can switch to a paid subscription (subscribing to the Service). Your access to the Service will automatically terminate if you choose not to pay the fee for the Service and subscribe.  If you wish to subscribe, you have to provide a method of payment as well. We will not request any information regarding your method of payment during the trial period.

By subscribing, you will have access to all remaining functionality, such as your Jordin rank, and other climate impact statistics. Moreover, upon successful subscription after the trial period, we will fulfil the related climate actions according to the details described in section 3 of these ToS.

You pay the Fee for the subscription in advance, for the first time on the day of your subscription. For any following months, you shall pay the Fee on the same day each month as you have paid first (or the last day of the preceding month if there is no such day in the given month).

You shall pay the Fee using the App Store’s in-app purchase method. You are obliged to ensure the necessary coverage and other conditions for the use of the chosen payment method. If you fail to provide sufficient funds on the due date of payment, we will send an email message to the email address provided by you and will attempt to debit the payment instrument with the amount of the Fee again. Incase of failure of the payment, we will consider that your active payment period has expired and will immediately terminate access to the Service.
