Terms & Conditions

Last updated: 2026-06-05 · Valid for all orders via synapse-app.at and the native Synapse apps.

Note: The English version is provided for reader convenience only. Only the German version is legally binding.

1. Scope

These terms govern the contractual relationship between [First and last name / company name], [Address], Austria (the "Provider") and the user (the "Customer") regarding the use of the software "Synapse" and the associated cloud services.

These terms apply in the version valid at the time of contract conclusion. Deviating terms of the Customer are not recognized unless expressly agreed in writing.

2. Contract subject

The Provider grants the Customer access to the software "Synapse" via a subscription model and — depending on the selected plan — to cloud sync, AI features and other features. The exact functional scope follows from the respective plan description on the website at the time of order.

3. Conclusion of contract

The contract is concluded upon confirmation of the order via Stripe payment. The Customer receives a confirmation by email. The contract language is German.

4. Prices and payment

All prices include statutory VAT where applicable. Billing is done in advance for the respective contract period (monthly or annually) via the payment service provider Stripe. Accepted payment methods are credit card, SEPA direct debit and other payment methods available at Stripe.

In case of payment default, the Provider reserves the right to temporarily block access to paid features until payment is received.

5. Term and cancellation

The subscription is automatically extended for the chosen contract period (monthly or annually) unless cancelled by the last day of the current period.

Cancellation can be made informally at any time by email to support@synapse-app.at or via the account menu in the app. No additional costs arise.

Payments already made will — outside the statutory right of withdrawal (see point 6) — not be refunded pro-rata.

6. Right of withdrawal for consumers

Withdrawal instruction

You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving reasons. The withdrawal period is 14 days from the day of contract conclusion.

To exercise your right of withdrawal, you must inform us by means of a clear declaration (e.g. a letter sent by post or email) of your decision to withdraw from this contract. You may use the model withdrawal form below, but this is not required.

Consequences of withdrawal

If you withdraw from this contract, we will refund all payments received from you without undue delay and no later than 14 days from the day on which the notice of your withdrawal was received. For this refund we will use the same means of payment that you used in the original transaction, unless expressly agreed otherwise with you.

Early expiry of the right of withdrawal for digital content

The right of withdrawal expires early if you have expressly agreed that the execution of the contract begins before the expiry of the withdrawal period and you have confirmed that you thereby lose your right of withdrawal. You give this consent actively during checkout (checkbox "I want immediate access and hereby waive my right of withdrawal.").

Model withdrawal form

To: [First and last name / company name], [Address], Email: support@synapse-app.at

I/we (*) hereby withdraw from the contract concluded by me/us (*) regarding the provision of the following service:

– Ordered on (*) / received on (*):

– Name of consumer(s):

– Address of consumer(s):

– Date, signature (only when notified on paper)

(*) Delete as appropriate.

7. Customer obligations

  • The Customer undertakes to keep access data secret and to protect it against unauthorized access by third parties.
  • Sharing the account or joint use with several persons is not permitted unless this is expressly part of the chosen plan.
  • The Customer may not misuse the Synapse services, in particular not upload illegal, offensive or copyrighted content.
  • In case of violation of these obligations, the Provider may block the account and terminate the contract extraordinarily.

8. Availability

The Provider strives to ensure the highest possible availability of the cloud services (target value: 99.5 % per calendar month on annual average). Maintenance windows are announced in advance where possible. Availability beyond this is not owed.

9. Warranty and liability

Austrian warranty law applies. The Provider is liable only for intent and gross negligence. Liability for slight negligence, in particular for lost profit, indirect damages or data loss, is — to the extent legally permitted — excluded.

The Customer is responsible for regularly backing up their own data. The Provider performs backups but without any further data recovery guarantee.

10. AI features and daily limit

AI features (handwriting recognition, math solving, chat) consume tokens per request. Depending on the plan, the Customer has a certain token budget per day, which is reset at midnight UTC. Upon reaching the daily limit, AI features are unavailable until the next reset. No refund is provided for unused tokens.

11. Changes to the T&C

The Provider reserves the right to adjust these terms. Changes will be communicated to the Customer at least 30 days before they take effect by email. If the Customer does not object within this period, the changed terms are deemed accepted. In case of objection, the Customer has a special right of cancellation.

12. Final provisions

  • Austrian law applies, excluding the UN Sales Convention. For consumer transactions, mandatory consumer protection provisions remain unaffected.
  • Place of jurisdiction is — to the extent legally permitted — the general place of jurisdiction of the Provider in Austria. For consumer transactions, the statutory place of jurisdiction applies.
  • Should individual provisions be invalid, the validity of the remaining provisions remains unaffected.
  • Online dispute resolution: The EU provides an online platform at ec.europa.eu/consumers/odr.
