1. Preamble and consumer status

Important: This English version is provided for informational purposes only. In case of any discrepancy or interpretation issue, the French version (« Conditions Générales de Vente — Athlètes ») shall prevail.

These Terms and Conditions of Sale (“Terms of Sale”) govern the commercial terms applicable to the subscription of an Athlete Premium plan with the company SYNERGY PERFORMANCE, SAS (“Synergy” or “we”), whose contact details appear in the Legal Notice.

These Terms of Sale apply to consumers within the meaning of the introductory article of the French Consumer Code, i.e. natural persons acting for purposes outside the scope of their commercial, industrial, craft, liberal or agricultural activity.

Professional athletes who would subscribe in the context of their professional activity are subject to separate conditions (where applicable, contact us at [email protected]).

Acceptance of the Terms of Sale also entails acceptance of the Terms of Use (CGU) and the Privacy Policy.

2. Definitions

The terms used in these Terms of Sale have the meaning defined in the Terms of Use. The following are also defined:

  • Athlete: consumer User registering for personal use on the Services.
  • Freemium Plan: free version of the Services accessible to any Athlete, with a limited functional scope.
  • Athlete Premium Plan: paid subscription giving access to all Athlete functionalities.
  • Subscription: contractual commitment entered into by the Athlete to access the Athlete Premium Plan.

3. Pre-contractual information

In accordance with Article L. 221-5 of the French Consumer Code, Synergy communicates the following information to the Athlete prior to any subscription:

  • Synergy's identity and contact details (set out in the Legal Notice)
  • The essential characteristics of the service (Athlete Premium Plan, see section 4)
  • The total price including tax, payment terms and duration of commitment (sections 4, 9 and 10)
  • The existence and conditions of the 14-day right of withdrawal (section 7)
  • The existence of a legal warranty of conformity (section 14)
  • The contact details of the consumer mediator (section 17)

The Athlete acknowledges having received and reviewed this information before subscribing.

4. Pricing plan and essential characteristics

Synergy offers a single Athlete Premium Plan, available with two payment frequencies:

FrequencyPrice including tax
Monthly€9.99 incl. tax/month
Annual€59.99 incl. tax/year (equivalent to €5.00/month, i.e. -50% vs monthly)

Prices are quoted including taxes (incl. tax), VAT included according to the Athlete's country of residence (as a general rule, French VAT at the rate of 20% for Athletes residing in France).

The Athlete Premium Plan gives access to all Athlete functionalities, as opposed to the free Freemium Plan which has a limited functional scope. Detailed comparisons of the Plans are presented to the Athlete on the subscription screen within the application.

5. Trial period and freemium access

Synergy does not offer a temporary trial period for the Athlete Premium Plan. Instead, the Freemium Plan remains accessible free of charge and without time limit to any Athlete, and allows testing of the basic functionalities before subscription.

The transition from Freemium to Athlete Premium Plan can be made at any time from the application, at the Athlete's initiative.

6. Subscription and contract formation

Subscription to the Athlete Premium Plan is made exclusively from the Synergy mobile application (iOS or Android), via the Apple App Store or Google Play Store. Technical transactions are managed by RevenueCat, Inc. To subscribe, the Athlete:

  1. Chooses the payment frequency (monthly or annual) on the subscription screen
  2. Confirms the subscription via the payment method registered on their Apple ID account (iOS) or Google Play account (Android)
  3. Expressly accepts these Terms of Sale, the Terms of Use and the Privacy Policy

The contract is formed upon confirmation of the subscription by the store. A receipt is sent to the Athlete by email by Apple or Google.

The commercial conditions of Apple App Store and Google Play Store apply in addition to these Terms of Sale (in particular regarding invoicing, refunds and dispute management); it is the Athlete's responsibility to review the conditions of the store through which they subscribe.
