‍

The use of the application is subject to the full and complete acceptance of these General Conditions of Use.

‍

Article 1 - General Provisions

‍

1.1. Purpose

‍

The purpose of these General Conditions of Use (hereinafter the "GCU") is to define the terms of access and use of the services offered via the OBJECTORY mobile application, by any user (hereinafter the "User").

‍

1.2. Scope of Application

‍

The GCU applies to any natural person aged at least 13 who uses the Application. Registration by a minor requires the prior authorization of a holder of parental authority.

‍

Article 2 - Description of Services

‍

The Application offers the following services (hereinafter the "Service"):

• The Application provides the User with a platform allowing the centralized management of personal items and their associated information.
• The Application allows the User to record, organize and store information relating to their items (including photographs, documents, videos, voice recordings, and descriptive data), in a dedicated personal space.
• The Application allows the user to import existing inventories (Excel format), and to export Application inventories (PDF or Excel format).
• The Application ensures the storage of User data in a secure environment, in accordance with the technical standards defined by Valuables (see Security and protection of your data). The User retains exclusive control over the information they record, which is only accessible to them or to the people they authorize.

Valuables has access to no User data (in particular, no data relating to their assets) except those indicated in Article 9 of these GCU.

‍

Article 3 - Registration Procedures

‍

3.1. Registration – mandatory steps

‍

Before any registration, the User must download OBJECTORY onto their phone, with a compatible operating system (Android or iOS).

‍

The User undertakes to provide accurate and up-to-date information during registration: surname, first name, email address. Access to the Application requires the creation of a user account.

‍

An email is sent by OBJECTORY to the email address mentioned by the User, to confirm their registration. Confirmation of the email address is necessary to activate the User's registration.

‍

3.2. PIN code and encryption key linked to assets

‍

The User chooses a specific PIN code to access their OBJECTORY account. The PIN code is strictly personal, confidential, and non-transferable. It cannot therefore be shared or communicated to third parties.

‍

In addition to the PIN code associated with their OBJECTORY account, the User must define, for each asset created in the Application, a specific password constituting an "encryption key". This key is exclusively known to the User and cannot be recovered or saved by Valuables.

‍

In the event of loss of the encryption key, the User acknowledges that they will no longer be able to access the data of the asset concerned and that this data will be definitively lost.

‍

The User is solely responsible for the conservation and confidentiality of their PIN code and their encryption key, and releases Valuables from all responsibility in this regard. The User undertakes to modify their PIN code if they suspect that its confidentiality has been compromised.

‍

3.3. Registration of minors under 16 years of age

‍

In accordance with Article 8 of the GDPR, the lawful processing of personal data of children under 16 years of age requires the consent given by the holder of parental authority in respect of the child concerned. However, Member States may provide for a lower age, which may not be lower than 13 years.

‍

In application of this provision, Belgian legislation provides for a minimum age of 13 years (Article 7 of the law of July 30, 2018), and French law provides for a minimum age of 15 years (Article 45 of the French Data Protection Act "Loi Informatique et Libertés").

‍

The minor User must, depending on the legislation applicable to their situation, obtain the consent of the person holding parental authority for their registration with OBJECTORY.

‍

The person holding parental authority is responsible for the supervision of the minor User.

‍

Article 4 – The Subscription

‍

4.1. Subscription and payment

‍

The User has access to the functionalities of OBJECTORY provided that they have subscribed to one of the available subscription formulas. The different descriptions of the formulas are available on the following link: https://www.objectoryapp.com/

‍

The User must subscribe to a paid subscription on the Valuables Application using a third-party payment system via mobile application platforms[1] (Apple App Store or Google Play Store).

‍

Subscriptions are billed in advance, either monthly or annually, depending on the option selected by the User. Subscription fees are automatically debited at the start of each billing period, unless the User cancels their subscription before the end of the current period.

‍

The prices displayed include all applicable taxes, including VAT at 21%, and are calculated based on the information provided by the User during subscription.

‍

A fourteen-day free trial period is offered to new Users who subscribe to a paid subscription for the first time. During this period, the User has access to certain features of the chosen subscription, described on the pricing page indicated above. At the end of this trial period, the User's subscription is automatically activated and billed, unless the User cancels it before the end of the trial period.

‍

4.2. Modification of Prices and Tax Rates

‍

Valuables reserves the right to modify the prices of paid subscriptions, including recurring subscription fees, to reflect changes in the features offered, operational costs, or for legal, regulatory, or economic reasons.

‍

Any price modification is notified to the User at least thirty days before its entry into force, by email or via a notification in the Application.

‍

The price modification takes effect from the next billing period following the notification date.

‍

If the User does not accept a price modification, they can refuse it by cancelling their subscription before the modification comes into effect. The use of the Application by the User after the entry into force of the modification constitutes acceptance of the new price.

‍

4.3. Invoicing and Cancellation

‍

The User is billed recurrently on the first day of each billing period for the subscription fees then in force.

‍

The User can cancel their subscription at any time by logging into their OBJECTORY account and following the instructions available in their account settings. Termination takes effect at the end of the current billing period, and no refund or credit is granted for a partially used period, unless expressly stated otherwise in these Conditions or by applicable law.

‍

4.4. Right of Withdrawal

‍

In accordance with Belgian legislation, the User has a legal right of withdrawal which expires fourteen days after the date of conclusion of the contract. The date of conclusion of the contract corresponds to the end of the free trial period.

‍

4.5. Termination by Valuables

‍

Valuables may charge the User late interest at the rate referred to in Article XIX.4 of the Economic Law Code, on any late payment after sending a first free reminder, a formal notice, and the expiry of a period of at least fourteen calendar days, starting either on the third working day following the sending of the formal notice, or, in the event of an electronic reminder, the calendar day following the day on which the reminder is sent to the User.

‍

Valuables will do its utmost to contact the User in the event of late payment, using the email address the User provided in the Valuables subscription management system. It is the User's responsibility to keep their contact details up to date to guarantee the reception of communications from Valuables.

‍

If an invoice remains unpaid for more than sixty (60) calendar days, Valuables reserves the right to suspend the User's access to the Application's paid services.

‍

In the event of failure to pay an invoice or a subscription, access to the Service may be temporarily suspended, in accordance with the rules applied by the distribution platform concerned.

‍

4.6. Payment Obligations

‍

The User undertakes to keep their payment information up to date and to ensure that the payment method used is valid and has sufficient funds to cover the subscription fees. In the event of payment failure, Valuables reserves the right to suspend the User's access to paid services until payment is regularized.
