1. Applicability
1.1 Contract partners and contract subject matter
These General Terms and Conditions provide the basis for the user agreement resulting between you and us, 7Mind GmbH, Ritterstr. 12, 10969 Berlin (hereinafter “Us” or “We”). The contract subject matter is the free or paid use of services offered by Us on the 7Mind App (hereinafter individually referred to as a “7Mind Service” or, collectively, as the “7Mind Services” or, generally, “7Mind”).
1.2 Additional terms and conditions
We reserve the right to make your use of certain 7Mind Services subject to additional terms and conditions. We will notify you before using such additional terms and conditions.
If you use 7Mind Services via the 7Mind App and you have downloaded the 7Mind App from the app store of a third party, the general terms and conditions and/or terms of use of the app store will apply in addition to these General Terms and Conditions. In case of the iTunes store, such terms include, for example, the “End User License Agreement for Licensed Applications” (which you will find at http://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/ww/). You will find the terms of use for Google Play, for example, at https://play.google.com/intl/de_de/about/play-terms.html. Please be sure to review the terms of use that apply in your country.
In the event of any conflicts, these General Terms and Conditions will prevail.
2. Health Requirements
You will use the 7Mind Services at your own risk.
Anytime you use the 7Mind Services you must be in good health. If you have any known preexisting illnesses or health conditions, please first consult a physician before you begin to use the 7Mind Services.
3. Participation Requirements
To open a user account and to use the 7Mind Services you must be at least 18 years old and have full legal capacity.
By entering into a contract with Us you represent that you have no other user account with Us and that your user account has not been suspended or terminated in the past due to violations of our General Terms and Conditions. In such cases We will not enter into another or new user agreement with you. You also represent that all information provided by you during the registration process is true and complete.
4. Conclusion of Contract, User Account
4.1 Registration process
To use the 7Mind Services, you must first register and open a user account. You can open a user account directly through the 7Mind App. When you register We will ask you to accept these General Terms and Conditions and our Data Privacy Policy.
How a user agreement will be concluded depends on how you first register and whether you sign up for any additional, paid services.
4.2 Registration via mobile apps
If you want to register through the 7Mind App, a user agreement will result according to the rules of your app store. As a general rule, a binding contract will result at the moment you click on the “Install” button in the store and you enter your password. To use the 7Mind Services, you must however still open a user account through the 7Mind App.
4.4 Conclusion of contract for paid subscription
You can activate additional services by purchasing a paid subscription. If you purchase additional services through your 7Mind App, a subscription agreement will result when you click the “Buy Now” button during an in-app purchase or a comparable button and when you have entered your password for the App Store, if required.
4.5 Correction of input errors
If you wish to purchase a subscription on our website https://www.7mind.app, you may cancel the transaction at any time before payment is made for such subscription. You can also correct any input errors until you have successfully input your payment information.
If you want to purchase a subscription by in-app purchase through your 7Mind App, you will pay for the service through the account with your app store. Therefore please contact your app store if you want to correct any input errors.
5. Contract Term
5.1 User agreement
The user agreement between you and Us that results when you open a user account will remain in effect for an indefinite term and will terminate effective upon your deletion of the 7Mind App.
5.2 Subscriptions
Our subscriptions have different minimum contract terms.
Our monthly subscription model has a minimum contract term of one month.
If you select the yearly subscription model, we offer access to the 7Mind Services on a free trial for seven days ("Free Trial"). You may be required to enter your billing information in order to sign up for the Free Trial. If you enter your billing information when signing up for the Free Trial, you will not be charged by Us until the Free Trial has expired and you have moved on to the yearly subscription. You may terminate the subscription during the Free Trial at any time by changing the settings in the third-party app store, if you purchased the subscription via a third party app store, or by notifying Us at [email protected], if you purchased the subscription via our website. On the day after the last day of the Free Trial period, unless you have terminated the Subscription, you will be automatically charged the applicable price for the yearly subscription model. Unless otherwise specified by Us, these General Terms and Conditions shall apply to the Free Trial. At any time and without notice, We reserve the right to (i) modify the terms of service of the Free Trial or (ii) cancel the Free Trial.
All subscriptions will be automatically renewed for the time period of the selected minimum contract term until either you or We terminate the subscription in accordance with Section 6. You may however opt out of the automatic renewal of your subscription at any time by choosing the appropriate settings in the account with your app store.
6. Termination
6.1 User agreement
You may terminate your user agreement at any time for any or no reason.
To do so, you must send Us an e-mail to [email protected] or terminate your agreement in the personal user area accessible at www.7mind.app/manage-subscription yourself, so that We can erase your user data. Please note that after your user account has been terminated all content and training data will or may be erased by Us and you will no longer have access to content you have already purchased.
If at the time you terminate your account you still have a valid subscription, any amount you may already have paid for the subscription will not be refunded – either in whole or in part.
We have the right to terminate the user agreement for any or no reason in text form with two weeks’ prior notice, however not before the end of the minimum contract term or the end of the applicable renewal term of your subscription.
6.2 Subscriptions
You may terminate your subscription at any time for any or no reason effective as of the end of the minimum contract term or the end of the applicable renewal term. The termination by the user can be declared by e-mail to [email protected] or in the personal user area accessible at www.7mind.app/manage-subscription yourself.
Subscriptions purchased by in-app purchase must be terminated by changing the appropriate settings in the app store where you bought the subscription. If your subscription fee is collected by iTunes, We ask, notwithstanding the above, that for technical reasons you comply with a notice period of 24 hours to the end of the minimum contract term or the end of the respective renewal term. After termination of your subscription your user account and any other subscriptions will continue unless and until you also terminate such additional subscriptions.
Current in-app subscriptions cannot be terminated during the contract term.
We have the right to terminate any subscription at the end of the minimum contract term or the end of the applicable renewal term by providing you with two weeks’ prior notice in text form.
6.3 Termination for material breach
Irrespective of the foregoing provisions, either party has the right to terminate contracts for material breach of contract. This agreement will terminate immediately and automatically without any notice if you violate any of the terms and conditions of this agreement.
7. 7Mind Services
You may download and use the 7Mind App free of charge. You will receive access to all available exercises as part of a paid subscription.
When you download and use the 7Mind App, in particular through third-party networks or in other countries, you may incur transmission charges of your Internet service provider.
We strive to provide you with uninterrupted operation of the 7Mind Services and to make those services available as continuously as possible. We advise you however that full or uninterrupted availability is technically impossible, and We make no warranty for uninterrupted operation or any particular availability.
Our applications are continuously updated and adjusted for your security and for the stability of our applications. As a result, system requirements may change. We assume no obligation to make available to you any application (such as the 7Mind App) that will be functional on your terminal device at all times, if functionality on your terminal device should be limited by technological changes. If you choose not to install such updates or if you opt out of automatic updates you may not be able to continue using the App and the 7Mind Services.
We reserve the right to change our business model at any time and, for example, to provide any or all 7Mind Services only in exchange for payment. You will then have the option to decide whether you wish to continue using the 7Mind Services in exchange for payment or stop using the 7Mind Services. Any such changes will have no effect on existing subscriptions until the end of the contract term.
Our understanding of human health is evolving on a continuous basis. This may affect how exercises are evaluated. Even though our exercises are based on current studies and findings, We make no guarantee that our exercises are in conformity with current research results or findings.
Please note that you may need certain tools or equipment to be able to fully use some 7Mind Services. Such tools or equipment are not part of the 7Mind Services and, if needed, must be purchased separately by you at your own cost.

comply with all applicable technology control or export laws and regulations that apply to the technology used or supported by the App or any Service.

If you buy 7Mind Services on our website www.7mind.de/en, you will be shown a list of currently accepted payment methods during the ordering process from which you may choose. If payment is declined for reasons for which you are responsible (e.g., because the amount paid is not covered by funds in your account or because the limit of your credit card has been exhausted), we may charge interest on all late payments (whether during the Term or after the expiration or earlier termination of the Term), calculated daily and compounded [monthly/bi-monthly/quarterly]. We have the right to charge you for any costs and/or expenses actually incurred by Us as a result of collecting any late payments, including attorneys' fees and court costs.
We reserve the right not to offer certain payment methods and to refer you to other payment methods if there is a valid reason for doing so.

10. Responsibility for Content and Services
10.1 No responsibility for third-party content or services
The 7Mind Services may include links to websites or apps of third-party providers. In some cases, content made available by third parties may be shown or the 7Mind Services may enable you to use additional services of third parties. We strive to design our applications in such a way that this will be readily apparent to you. All content and/or services of third-party providers are subject to the applicable terms, conditions, and rules of such third-party providers. We hereby expressly disclaim any responsibility or liability for content or services of third parties. You are personally responsible for making sure that you do not violate the terms and conditions of such third-party providers.
11. Warranties
The 7Mind app is provided to you "as is" and with all faults and defects without warranty of any kind. To the maximum extent permitted under applicable law, we, on our own behalf and on behalf of our affiliates and our and their respective licensors and service providers, expressly disclaim all warranties, whether express, implied, statutory, or otherwise, with respect to the 7Mind app, including all implied warranties of merchantability, title, and non-infringement, and warranties that may arise out of course of dealing, usage, or trade practice. Without limitation to the foregoing, we provide no warranty or undertaking, and make no representation of any kind that the 7Mind app will meet your requirements, help you reach your specific goals or achieve any intended results, be compatible, or work with any other software, applications, systems, or services, operate without interruption, meet any performance or reliability standards, or be error-free, or that any errors or defects can or will be corrected.
Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion of or limitations on implied warranties or the limitations on the applicable statutory rights of a consumer, so some or all of the above exclusions and limitations may not apply to you.
12. Liability
12.1 General provisions
The user is obliged to take all measures to minimize any damage as far as possible. They are obligated to heed our health notices in Section 2.

(a) personal injury, property damage, lost profits, cost of substitute goods or services, loss of data, loss of goodwill, business interruption, computer failure or malfunction, or any other consequential, incidental, indirect, exemplary, special, or punitive damages.
(b) direct damages in amounts that in the aggregate exceed the amount actually paid by you for the 7mindapp.
The foregoing limitations will apply whether such damages arise out of breach of contract, tort (including negligence), or otherwise and regardless of whether such damages were foreseeable or you were advised of the possibility of such damages. Some jurisdictions do not allow certain limitations of liability so some or all of the above limitations of liability may not apply to you.
13. Licensed Rights
13.1 7Mind content
The services offered by Us in some cases include copyright protected or otherwise protected content to which We own the necessary rights. For example, the 7Mind App is a copyright protected software program.
