Terms of Service

These General Terms and Conditions (hereinafter the Terms) govern the use of the Monkly app and services (hereinafter Monkly or the app), offered by Chio Studios, owner Florian Chiorean (hereinafter the Provider). They apply to all persons who download Monkly through the app stores, create an account or make use of the services.

Any deviating or supplementary terms of the users do not become part of the contract unless the Provider expressly agrees to their application.

The contracting party for the use of Monkly is Chio Studios, owner Florian Chiorean. The full provider details can be found in the legal notice, which is accessible via the footer of this page.

The Provider is solely responsible for the operation of the app. The app stores (Apple App Store and Google Play) merely provide the distribution and payment platform and are not a contracting party to the usage agreement.

Monkly is an organizer app for families and households. It bundles modules such as calendar, tasks, lists and finances, which are synchronized in real time between the members of a household.

The specific range of features follows from the respective current description in the app and in the app stores. Some features can be used free of charge; more extensive features are reserved for paid subscriptions.

The Provider continuously develops Monkly further. Individual features may be added, changed or removed, insofar as this is reasonable for the users.

A user account is required for most features. By registering, you submit an offer to conclude a usage agreement. The contract is formed once the Provider activates your account.

You are obliged to provide truthful information when registering and to keep your access credentials confidential. Accounts are not transferable.

Use is permitted for persons aged 16 and over. Younger persons may use Monkly only with the consent of their legal guardians.

Paid features are offered as a subscription with a monthly or annual term. The subscription renews automatically for the respective selected term unless it is cancelled in good time.

The management and cancellation of the subscription takes place via the settings of your app store account (Apple App Store or Google Play). The deadlines and conditions of the platform stored there apply in addition.

Cancellation is possible at any time with effect from the end of the current billing period. Fees already paid for the current period are not refunded on a pro rata basis, unless otherwise required by law.

The prices displayed in the app or in the app store at the time of the order, including statutory value added tax, apply.

Payment is processed exclusively via the respective app store (Apple or Google) and the payment method stored there. The Provider does not receive any payment data such as credit card numbers.

Price changes for ongoing subscriptions are announced in good time in advance. If you do not object to the change and do not cancel, the change is deemed accepted. You will be separately advised of the significance of your conduct.

Consumers have a statutory right of withdrawal. In the case of digital content and services, the right of withdrawal may expire prematurely if you expressly agree that performance begins before the withdrawal period has expired and you confirm your acknowledgement that this causes the right to lapse.

Since the purchase is processed via the app stores, the exercise of the withdrawal or a refund is additionally governed by the conditions of the respective store. Refund requests can generally be submitted directly to the app store.

You undertake to use Monkly only within the framework of applicable law and these Terms. In particular, it is prohibited to post unlawful content, to infringe the rights of third parties or to disrupt or misuse the technical infrastructure.

You are responsible for the content you post yourself. The Provider does not adopt this content as its own.

You are responsible for the security of your access credentials and shall inform the Provider without undue delay if you notice any signs of misuse of your account.

The Provider endeavours to keep the services available as uninterruptedly as possible but does not owe any particular level of availability. Maintenance work, technical faults or circumstances beyond the Provider control may lead to temporary restrictions.

The Provider is entitled to further develop and adapt the service or to discontinue individual features, insofar as this is reasonable for the users.

The Provider is liable without limitation for damages resulting from injury to life, body or health, as well as for damages based on intent or gross negligence.

In the event of a breach of material contractual obligations (cardinal obligations), the Provider is liable, in terms of amount, limited to the foreseeable damage typical for the contract. In all other respects, liability is excluded.

You share responsibility, within what is reasonable, for the permanent and lossless storage of your data. The Provider recommends additionally backing up important content.

The protection of your data is a high priority for us. Monkly is free of advertising, refrains from third-party tracking and stores data on servers in Germany.

Details on the processing of personal data can be found in our privacy policy, which is maintained centrally at Chio Studios and linked via the footer of this page.

The Provider may amend these Terms insofar as this is necessary for good cause, for example due to a change in the legal situation, supreme court case law or a change in the scope of services, and provided that the users are not thereby unreasonably disadvantaged.

You will be informed of changes in an appropriate form in good time before they take effect. If you do not object within the specified period, the amended Terms are deemed accepted. You will be separately advised of the significance of your silence.

The law of the Federal Republic of Germany applies, to the exclusion of the UN Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods. Mandatory consumer protection provisions of the state in which the user has their habitual residence remain unaffected.

Should a provision of these Terms be or become invalid, the validity of the remaining provisions remains unaffected.

The European Commission provides a platform for online dispute resolution. The Provider is neither obliged nor generally willing to participate in a dispute resolution procedure before a consumer arbitration board.
