1. Acceptance of Terms

By creating an account and using the Emese Care application ("the App"), you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service ("Terms"). If you do not agree to these Terms, do not create an account or use the App.

These Terms constitute a binding legal agreement between you and Nekotin Kft. ("we", "us", or "our"), the operator of Emese Care.

2. Description of the Service

Emese Care is a digital behaviour-change support platform. It offers structured programs to help people reduce or stop habits such as nicotine use, social media overuse, alcohol use, gambling, medication dependency, pornography use, and drug use.

The App provides:

• Personalised content based on your stage of change
• Progress tracking and daily check-ins
• Motivational tools and educational materials
• A structured program tailored to your chosen habit area

Emese Care is a support tool. It is not a medical service, therapy, or clinical treatment. See Section 9 (Medical Disclaimer) for full details.

3. Eligibility

You must be at least 18 years old to use Emese Care. By creating an account, you confirm that you are 18 or older.

We do not knowingly collect data from anyone under 18. If we discover that a user is under 18, we will delete their account and all associated data immediately.

This requirement is especially important for users of the Gambling program, where 18+ is a legal requirement in Hungary and across the EU.

4. Your Account

4.1 Registration

You must provide accurate information when registering. You are responsible for keeping your account credentials secure. Do not share your password with anyone.

Accounts are personal. You may not create accounts on behalf of others or create multiple accounts for the same person.

4.3 Account security

If you believe your account has been compromised, contact us immediately at hello@emese.care.

• What data we collect and why

7. Content Ownership

7.1 Your content is yours

Any content you submit to the App (such as your Future Self Letter) belongs to you. You retain full ownership.

9. Medical Disclaimer

Please read this section carefully.

9.1 Not a medical service

Emese Care is NOT a medical service. The App, its content, tools, and programs are for informational and personal support purposes only. Nothing in the App constitutes medical advice, diagnosis, treatment, or therapy.

Emese Care does not replace:

• A doctor, psychiatrist, or psychologist
• An addiction specialist or therapist
• A rehabilitation programme
• Any other professional healthcare service

9.2 Not for emergencies

Emese Care is NOT equipped to handle medical emergencies or mental health crises. The App does not provide real-time crisis support.

If you or someone else is in immediate danger, stop using the App and:

9.3 Withdrawal and medical risk

Some habits, including alcohol, benzodiazepines, and opioids, can cause medically serious withdrawal symptoms. If you are considering stopping use of any substance, speak to a doctor first. Sudden cessation of certain substances can be life-threatening without medical supervision.

Emese Care does not provide personalised medical guidance on withdrawal. Always consult a qualified healthcare professional before making changes to your substance use.

9.4 No guarantees

Emese Care cannot guarantee any outcome. Recovery is a personal journey and results vary significantly between individuals. The App provides tools and support, but your outcomes depend on many factors outside our control.

9.5 Consult a professional

If you have any concerns about your physical or mental health, consult a qualified healthcare provider. Do not delay seeking professional help because of anything you read or experience in the App.

10. Limitation of Liability

To the fullest extent permitted by Hungarian and EU law:

• We provide the App "as is", without warranties of any kind
• We are not liable for any indirect, incidental, or consequential loss arising from your use of the App
• Our total liability to you for any claim arising from these Terms shall not exceed the amount you have paid us in the 12 months preceding the claim (or €100 if you have paid nothing)

Nothing in these Terms limits our liability for death or personal injury caused by our negligence, fraud, or any liability that cannot be excluded by law.

11. Termination

11.1 By you

You may close your account at any time through the App settings. We will permanently delete all your data.

11.2 By us

We may suspend or terminate your account if you violate these Terms, or if we discontinue the service. We will give you reasonable notice where possible.

11.3 Effect of termination

On termination, your right to use the App ends immediately. We will delete your data in accordance with our Privacy Policy.

12. Changes to the Service and These Terms

We may update these Terms from time to time. When we make material changes, we will notify you in the App and update the "Last updated" date above. Your continued use after notification constitutes acceptance of the updated Terms.

If you do not accept the changes, you may close your account before they take effect.

Previous versions of these Terms are available via the "What changed?" panel at the top of this page.

13. Governing Law and Disputes

These Terms are governed by the laws of Hungary and applicable EU law.

Any disputes will first be addressed through good-faith communication. If we cannot resolve a dispute informally, you may refer the matter to the competent Hungarian court or, where applicable, to the Online Dispute Resolution platform provided by the European Commission.

As a Hungarian consumer, you also have the right to contact the Hungarian Competition Authority (GVH) or your regional Conciliation Body (Békéltető Testület) for consumer protection disputes.
