1. Definitions

  • “App” — the MindLotus mobile application, features, content, updates, and related services.
  • “Company” — Zadio EOOD, EIK 201209745, VAT BG201209745.
  • “Consumer” — any natural person acting for purposes outside their trade, business, craft, or profession (Directive 2011/83/EU; Bulgarian CPA).
  • “Content” — audio files, soundscapes, tones, recordings, and other media provided within the App by the Company.
  • “User Content” — audio files and media you supply from your own device or external sources.
  • “Subscription” — a recurring paid plan (Awakened, Aligned, or Serene).
  • “Free Trial” — the introductory period during which you may use the App at no charge.
  • “Marketplace” — the in-app catalog where individual items may be unlocked for a one-time fee.
  • “Unlocked Content” — Marketplace items for which you have paid the applicable fee.
  • “Digital Content” — data produced and supplied in digital form (Directive (EU) 2019/770; Bulgarian DCA).

2. Eligibility

You must be at least the applicable age of digital consent in your country: 14 years in Bulgaria (LPDP Art. 25в); between 13 and 16 in other EU/EEA Member States; 13 years where permitted. If you are under 18 you must have the permission of a parent or legal guardian. You represent you have the legal capacity to enter into these Terms.

3. App Access and Subscription Requirement

3.1 Subscription required

The App requires an active Subscription or an active Free Trial to function. Without one, all App features are unavailable.

3.2 Free Trial

New users receive a 14-day trial with full access to all features at the Serene tier level, at no cost and with no payment information required. The trial begins upon first use and is limited to one trial per user (enforced via a cross-device anchor — see Privacy Policy §2.1–2.2). If you install the App on additional devices, your existing trial or active Subscription is restored automatically on first launch; you may also trigger restoration manually via Settings → Restore subscription. The remaining trial period carries over. No payment is charged when the trial ends; you choose a plan only if you wish to continue.

3.3 Subscription plans and prices

All prices are displayed in EUR and include Bulgarian VAT at the applicable statutory rate (currently 20%). Final prices charged by Google Play may differ slightly due to local currency conversion, local tax rules, and platform fees.

(a) Awakened — €1.50 / month (VAT incl.)

  • Dual audio playback (two simultaneous tracks)
  • MP3 format support
  • Independent volume, seek, and loop controls per player
  • File size limit: 10 MB per track
  • Use your own audio files from device storage
  • System and custom theme selection
  • Background playback

(b) Aligned — €3.50 / month (VAT incl.)

  • All Awakened features, plus:
  • WAV, FLAC, AAC, OGG formats
  • File size limit: 50 MB per track
  • Folder playback
  • Last ten mixes history

(c) Serene — €5.50 / month (VAT incl.)

  • All Aligned features, plus:
  • Unlimited file size
  • Audio extraction from video files
  • Left/right ear routing
  • Saved mixes
  • Exclusive premium theme palettes

Prices are indicative and may vary by region or promotion. Prices displayed in the Google Play Store at the time of purchase are authoritative.

3.4 Billing, payment processing, and renewal

All payments for the App, Subscriptions, and in-app Marketplace purchases are processed exclusively by Google Play, which acts as the merchant of record for EU/EEA end-user purchases. We do not collect payments directly. Google Play manages:

  • payment processing (card, wallet, carrier billing, gift cards, etc.);
  • VAT collection and invoicing under EU VAT rules (OSS/IOSS);
  • recurring billing and renewals;
  • billing disputes and chargebacks;
  • platform-level refund processing.

Subscriptions renew automatically at the end of each billing period at the then-current price, unless canceled at least 24 hours before the renewal date.

3.5 Upgrades and downgrades

Change your tier at any time through Google Play. Upgrades take effect immediately (prorated). Downgrades take effect at the start of the next billing cycle.

3.6 Cancellation

Cancel any time through Google Play. You retain access until the end of the current paid period. Cancellation requires no reason.

3.7 Refunds — handled by Google Play

All refund requests must be submitted to Google Play. Because all payments are collected by Google Play (Section 3.4), we do not hold your money and cannot process refunds directly to your card, bank account, or other payment instrument. Google Play handles both its own platform-level refund policy and — where applicable — reimbursements arising from your statutory consumer rights.

How to request a refund from Google Play:

  • Google Play app → Menu → Payments & subscriptions → Budget & order history → Request a refund;
  • Web: play.google.com/store/account/orderhistory;
  • Help: support.google.com/googleplay/answer/2479637.
Statutory rights safety net. Your mandatory rights under EU/Bulgarian consumer law — including the right of withdrawal and remedies for non-conforming digital content (Section 4) — apply regardless of Google Play’s commercial refund policy. If Google Play declines a refund but you are entitled to a remedy under mandatory law, contact us at mindlotus.app@gmail.com; we will work with Google Play to ensure reimbursement is processed, or provide the lawful remedy directly if Google Play is unable to do so. See the full Refund & Withdrawal Policy.

3.8 Restoration of purchases after uninstall, reinstall, or device change

You will never have to pay twice for the same content. Your purchases are tied to your Google account by Google Play. To spare you from having to re-pay, we maintain a permanent entitlement record for every user so that, after an uninstall/reinstall or a device change, your unlocked content is automatically restored at first launch.

The entitlement record consists of:

  • your Firebase Authentication identifier (UID);
  • the list of Marketplace item IDs you have unlocked;
  • the Google Play purchase tokens that prove your ownership of those items;
  • the timestamp of the last synchronisation.

It is stored in Firebase Cloud Firestore, collection user_entitlements (one document per UID). It does not contain your name, email, payment-card data, or any other directly identifying information. Firebase security rules protect the document so that only you can read or modify your own record.

Retention — in your benefit. The entitlement record is retained for as long as the MindLotus service exists. No time-to-live (TTL) or automatic deletion policy is applied.

How restoration works. Restoration is performed through two parallel, independent channels:

  1. Google Play — the App queries Google Play for the list of products you own on your Google account (BillingClient.queryPurchasesAsync) and re-unlocks them. This channel works reliably even if your Firebase identifier has changed.
  2. Firebase Firestore — where available, the App pulls your user_entitlements document and merges any unlocks into your local library, carrying over purchase metadata that Google Play does not return.

You may also manually trigger restoration at any time via Settings → Restore Purchases.

Your right to request deletion. You may request permanent deletion of your Firebase entitlement record at any time by contacting mindlotus.app@gmail.com (see Privacy Policy §8.4). Deletion does not affect Google Play’s own record of your purchases, which is maintained independently by Google under your Google account; Play-side restoration will therefore continue to work after deletion, although internal metadata stored only on our side (e.g., sync timestamps) will be permanently lost.

For the privacy details of the entitlement record (data fields, legal basis, storage location, security), see Privacy Policy §2.4 and §2.4.1.

4. EU Consumer Rights — Withdrawal, Conformity, and Remedies

This Section applies to Consumers resident in the EU, the EEA, and the United Kingdom, supplementing (not overriding) any mandatory rights granted by the law of your country of residence.

4.1 Right of withdrawal (14 days)

You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days from the day of conclusion, without reason and without cost (other than those provided by law).

4.2 Exception for immediately-performed digital content

The right of withdrawal does not apply to a contract for the supply of digital content which is not supplied on a tangible medium if performance has begun with your prior express consent and your acknowledgement that you thereby lose your right of withdrawal (Directive 2011/83/EU Art. 16(m); Bulgarian CPA Art. 57, item 13).

By confirming the purchase of a Subscription or Marketplace item in Google Play and beginning to use the App, you (a) expressly consent to immediate performance; and (b) acknowledge that you lose your right of withdrawal once performance begins.

4.3 Free Trial and withdrawal

The Free Trial is free and does not give rise to a right of withdrawal from a paid contract. You may simply stop using the App any time during the trial.

4.4 How to withdraw

Where the right applies, exercise it by:

  1. Emailing an unambiguous written statement to mindlotus.app@gmail.com; or
  2. Using the model withdrawal form at the end of these Terms.

We will acknowledge receipt without undue delay. Because all payments are collected by Google Play, the reimbursement is processed through Google Play using the same means of payment you used for the initial transaction, without undue delay and in any event within 14 days of our receiving your withdrawal notice. We will instruct Google Play — or act directly where necessary — to ensure reimbursement is issued within this period. No fees are charged to you.

4.5 Conformity of Digital Content (Directive (EU) 2019/770)

We supply Digital Content that corresponds to the description, quality, functionality, compatibility, and interoperability set out in the contract, is fit for normal uses, is up-to-date at the time of conclusion, and is supplied with security updates necessary to maintain conformity.

4.6 Remedies for non-conformity

If the Digital Content is not in conformity, you are entitled (in the order prescribed by law) to: (a) bring it into conformity (repair or replacement); (b) a proportionate price reduction; or (c) termination of the contract and reimbursement. Contact mindlotus.app@gmail.com.

4.7 Liability period

For ongoing supply (Subscriptions): throughout the entire period of supply. For one-off supply (Marketplace items): where the lack of conformity appears within two (2) years from supply.

4.8 Online Dispute Resolution (ODR)

Pursuant to Regulation (EU) 524/2013, the European Commission operates an ODR platform: ec.europa.eu/consumers/odr. Our contact email for ODR: mindlotus.app@gmail.com.

5. Marketplace and Content License

5.1 In-app content purchases

The Marketplace offers individual audio items unlockable for a one-time fee while you have an active Subscription. These are non-consumable in-app purchases processed by Google Play.

5.2 License grant

Upon payment, the Company grants you a limited, personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable, revocable license to access and use the Unlocked Content within the App for personal, non-commercial use.

5.3 License, not sale

All Content is licensed, not sold. Payment does not transfer ownership of any IP.

5.4 Access dependency on Subscription

Important: Unlocked Content is accessible only within the App. Because the App requires an active Subscription, Unlocked Content is not accessible when your Subscription is inactive. Your purchase entitlement is preserved by Google Play and restored when you resubscribe.

5.5 Content availability

We may add, modify, or remove Content at any time, subject to Section 4.6 where applicable. If we permanently remove purchased Content, we will make reasonable efforts to notify affected users.

5.6 Restrictions

You may NOT:

  • Copy, extract, download, or export Content outside of the App
  • Distribute, share, resell, sublicense, or commercially exploit Content
  • Upload Content to streaming platforms, marketplaces, social media, or public websites
  • Use Content as part of any product, service, or work intended for sale or distribution
  • Reverse-engineer, decompile, or circumvent technical protections in the App, except where expressly permitted by mandatory law (in particular Articles 5(3) and 6 of Directive 2009/24/EC and Article 6(4) of Directive 2001/29/EC)
  • Use automated tools to access, scrape, or harvest Content

5.7 AI-generated content notice

Some audio may be created or enhanced using AI technologies. Such content may not be unique or exclusive; similar audio may exist or be independently created by others. Where required by Article 50 of the EU AI Act (Regulation (EU) 2024/1689), AI-generated or materially AI-altered audio is clearly labelled within the App.

6. User Content

Your files. The App lets you load your own audio files for playback. These remain your files; the Company claims no rights over User Content.

Your responsibility. You are solely responsible for ensuring you have the legal right to use any audio you load.

No storage or transmission. User Content is processed locally on your device. The App does not upload, transmit, or store User Content on any server.

7. Intellectual Property

The App, its design, source code, UI, trademarks, logos, and all Content are the exclusive property of the Company or its licensors and are protected by copyright, trademark, and other IP laws of Bulgaria and the European Union.

Subject to these Terms, you receive a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to install and use the App on devices you own for personal, non-commercial use.

Mandatory user rights preserved. Nothing in these Terms restricts any rights you have under mandatory law, including rights to observe, study, or test the functioning of computer programs (Art. 5(3) Directive 2009/24/EC), decompilation for interoperability (Art. 6), or permitted exceptions under copyright law (e.g., private copying, quotation) to the extent they apply.

Any feedback you provide may be used by the Company without obligation or compensation.

8. Acceptable Use

You agree not to:

  • Use the App for any unlawful purpose
  • Circumvent subscription requirements, trial limitations, or feature restrictions
  • Interfere with the App’s operation, servers, or networks
  • Reverse-engineer or decompile the App except as permitted by mandatory law
  • Create derivative works from the App
  • Remove or alter proprietary notices

9. Third-Party Services

The App is distributed through Google Play. Your use is also subject to Google Play’s Terms of Service. The App uses Google Firebase services for optional analytics, crash reporting, remote configuration, content delivery, and limited data synchronisation. The App does not display advertisements.

10. Disclaimer of Warranties

TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW AND WITHOUT PREJUDICE TO THE MANDATORY CONSUMER RIGHTS IN SECTION 4, THE APP AND ALL CONTENT ARE PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE” WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED.

Health Disclaimer: The App is not a medical device and is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any condition. Audio content is for personal wellness, relaxation, and entertainment only. Consult a qualified professional for medical or mental-health concerns.

11. Limitation of Liability

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, THE COMPANY SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES. THE COMPANY’S TOTAL AGGREGATE LIABILITY SHALL NOT EXCEED THE AMOUNT YOU HAVE PAID VIA GOOGLE PLAY IN THE TWELVE (12) MONTHS PRECEDING THE CLAIM, OR EUR 100, WHICHEVER IS GREATER.

Mandatory carve-outs. Nothing in these Terms shall exclude or limit the Company’s liability for: (a) death or personal injury caused by our negligence; (b) fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation; (c) gross negligence or willful misconduct; (d) any liability arising from a defective product under Directive 85/374/EEC (Product Liability Directive) and the Bulgarian Product Liability Act; or (e) any other liability which cannot be limited or excluded under applicable mandatory law.

12. Indemnification

To the extent permitted by applicable law, you agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless the Company from third-party claims arising from your violation of these Terms, your infringement of third-party rights (including through User Content), or your violation of applicable law. This Section does not apply to Consumers to the extent such indemnities are not permitted under applicable mandatory consumer law.

13. Termination

By you: Stop using the App by uninstalling and canceling your Subscription through Google Play.

By us (for cause): We may suspend or terminate your access, with notice where practicable, for cause — including material or repeated breach, suspected fraud/chargebacks/abuse of the Free Trial, legal requirements, or discontinuation of the App. For non-Consumer users we may also terminate for convenience on reasonable notice.

Sections on Intellectual Property, Disclaimers, Limitation of Liability, Indemnification, and Governing Law survive termination.

14. Changes to These Terms

We may update these Terms. Material changes will be reflected by the “Last Updated” date and notified at least 30 days before effect, where required by law. Continued use after the effective date constitutes acceptance. If you disagree, stop using the App and cancel your Subscription without penalty.

15. Governing Law and Disputes

Governing law. These Terms are governed by the substantive laws of the Republic of Bulgaria, excluding conflict-of-laws rules.

Consumer-protection carve-out. If you are a Consumer habitually resident in another EU/EEA Member State, you additionally benefit from the mandatory provisions of the law of your country of residence (Article 6 of Regulation (EC) 593/2008 “Rome I”).

Venue. Disputes shall be resolved by the competent Bulgarian courts of the Company’s registered seat. Consumers habitually resident in the EU/EEA may bring proceedings in the courts of their country of residence and may be sued only there (Article 18 of Regulation (EU) 1215/2012).

Out-of-court resolution. In addition to the ODR platform (Section 4.8), Consumers in Bulgaria may refer disputes to the conciliation commissions organised by the Commission for Consumer Protection: www.kzp.bg. We are not obliged to participate in any specific ADR scheme.

16. Severability

If any provision is found unenforceable, it shall be reformed to the minimum extent necessary, and the remaining provisions remain in full force.

17. Assignment

You may not assign these Terms without our prior written consent. We may assign these Terms in connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets, subject to the protection of your consumer rights.

18. Force Majeure

Neither party is liable for failure or delay caused by circumstances beyond its reasonable control (acts of God, war, terrorism, civil unrest, government action, labor disputes, telecom or internet failure, pandemics), provided the affected party promptly notifies the other.

19. Entire Agreement

These Terms together with the Privacy Policy, Content License, Refund & Withdrawal Policy, and Copyright & Takedown Policy constitute the entire agreement.
