These Terms of Service (hereinafter "Terms") govern the rights and obligations between the provider of the Recavio service (hereinafter "Provider", "we") and any natural or legal person who uses the service (hereinafter "User", "you").
By using the service, registering an account, or accessing any part of recavio.com, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use the service.
These Terms are governed by the laws of the Slovak Republic and the European Union.
Recavio is a web application for recording, managing and editing podcasts. The service includes:
Registration with a valid email address is required to use the service. Users must be at least 16 years old. If a User is between 16 and 18 years of age, their legal guardian agrees to these Terms on their behalf.

One account is intended for one person. The Provider reserves the right to suspend or terminate any account that violates these Terms.
The service is available in the following subscription plans: Free (limited features at no cost), Podcaster and Profi (paid monthly subscriptions). The current pricing and feature overview is always available on the subscription page within the application.
Payments for paid subscriptions are processed exclusively through the Stripe payment gateway (Stripe, Inc.). All payment card details are entered and processed directly on Stripe's secure pages. The Provider does not store, process, or have access to the User's payment card data.
Paid subscriptions renew automatically at the beginning of each billing period (monthly). The User may cancel their subscription at any time through the Stripe customer portal or in the application settings. Cancellation takes effect at the end of the current billing period.
Due to the nature of the digital service and in accordance with applicable EU consumer protection law (Directive 2011/83/EU, Article 16(m)), the consumer loses the right of withdrawal when the supply of digital content has begun with the consumer's prior express consent. By subscribing and beginning to use a paid plan, you consent to the commencement of the service before the expiry of the withdrawal period.
In individual cases, the Provider may, at its sole discretion, issue a refund or credit.
All audio recordings, files and other content created by the User through the service (hereinafter "User Content") remain the exclusive property of the User. The Provider makes no ownership claim to User Content.
The User grants the Provider a limited, non-exclusive license to store, process, and transmit User Content solely for the purpose of providing the service (e.g. server storage, mix processing, making content available for download). This license terminates upon deletion of User Content or account closure.
The User is solely responsible for content they create, upload, or share through the service. The User must not use the service to create, store, or distribute content that:

Recording quality depends on many factors outside the Provider's control, including the User's microphone quality, internet connection, hardware, and recording environment. The Provider is not liable for unsatisfactory audio quality caused by these factors.
The Provider is not liable for loss, damage, or unavailability of User Content caused by technical server failures, storage failures, network outages, natural disasters, cyberattacks, or other circumstances beyond the Provider's reasonable control. The User is solely responsible for creating and maintaining backup copies of their content.
To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law of the Slovak Republic and the European Union, the Provider's total liability for damages arising in connection with the service shall not exceed the amount the User has paid to the Provider for the service in the 3 months preceding the event giving rise to the claim, or €50, whichever is greater.
To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, the Provider shall not be liable for indirect, incidental, consequential, or exemplary damages, including lost profits, loss of goodwill, loss of data, or costs of procuring a substitute service.
Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits the Provider's liability for damage caused intentionally or through gross negligence, for personal injury, or any liability that cannot be limited under applicable law. Consumer rights under applicable EU consumer protection regulations remain unaffected by these Terms.

Continued use of the service after the effective date constitutes acceptance of the new Terms. If you disagree with the changes, you have the right to close your account.
The User may close their account at any time through the application settings or by sending a request to info@recavio.com. Upon account closure, access to the service will end, and User Content will be deleted from the Provider's servers within a reasonable period (typically within 30 days).
