The information provided (specifications, prices, peak-maturity windows, recommendations) is given for indicative purposes only and may contain inaccuracies or change over time. The Service does not sell tobacco and shall not be construed as a substitute for professional advice.

5. Free plan and Connoisseur subscription

The Service includes a free plan and a paid "Connoisseur" subscription unlocking additional features (unlimited scanning, unlimited sommelier, peak-maturity alerts, multiple humidors, ad-free experience).

• A free trial may be offered to new subscribers. At the end of the trial period, the subscription automatically continues at the then-current rate, unless cancelled before its expiry.
• Subscriptions taken out through Apple's App Store are billed, managed and renewed by Apple in accordance with its own terms. Management, modification and cancellation are carried out from your Apple account settings.
• Unless turned off at least twenty-four (24) hours before the renewal date, the subscription is automatically renewed for an identical term, and the renewal is charged within the twenty-four (24) hours preceding the end of the current period.
• Rates may change; any modification will be communicated to you and will take effect only for subscription periods following such change.

6. Right of withdrawal

Where the subscription is supplied as digital content whose performance begins immediately with your express consent, you acknowledge that you waive your right of withdrawal once performance has begun, within the limits provided for by applicable law.

For purchases made through the App Store, refund requests fall exclusively within the remit of Apple and its terms.

7. User Content

You retain ownership of your User Content. By publishing it, you grant Youmidor a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free licence to host, reproduce and display it solely for the purposes of operating and promoting the Service.

You warrant that you hold all necessary rights in your Content and that it does not infringe the rights of any third party.
