Terms and Conditions

Last Updated: 16 May 2026 · Effective Date: 16 May 2026

Welcome to Examo. These Terms and Conditions ("Terms") form a legally binding agreement between you and Examo ("we", "our", "us") regarding your use of the examo.me website, associated mobile and desktop applications, and our AI-powered study tools (collectively, the "Services"). By creating an account or otherwise using the Services, you confirm that you have read, understood and agree to these Terms and our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, you must not use the Services.

1. Eligibility

You must be at least 16 years old to use Examo. If you are a minor under the laws of your country of residence, you may use the Services only with the consent and supervision of a parent or legal guardian. By creating an account you confirm that all information you provide is accurate and that you have the legal capacity to enter into this agreement.

2. The Services

Examo provides AI-powered study tools, including:

  • Course-specific summaries and smart notes
  • AI Tutor (multi-turn chat with course context)
  • Cheat sheets and revision aids
  • Flashcards generated from your summaries
  • Practice questions and exam practice
  • Essay assistance

Available features depend on your plan, the course you have added, and your usage limits. We may add, change, or remove features at any time.

3. Plans, Pricing & Rate Limits

Examo offers two plans. All prices are shown in EUR and are inclusive of any applicable VAT unless stated otherwise.

PlanPriceLimits
Free€0 / foreverDaily AI request limit, capped tokens per generation, fewer flashcards per deck, slower model tier where applicable.
Pro€18.99 / month or €13.99 / month billed annually (save €60/yr)Substantially higher daily & monthly token limits, priority model access, longer chat context, larger flashcard decks, and access to all premium features.

Rate limits & fair use: Examo enforces per-account rate limits on daily and monthly AI generations, AI Tutor messages, summary creations, flashcard generations, cheat-sheet generations, and total tokens consumed. Limits are designed to allow normal, individual study use. Exact quotas may change as we optimise the platform; the current limits are visible in your dashboard and may be enforced via HTTP 429 errors, request queueing, or feature throttling.

Abuse: automated scraping, programmatic access outside our public API, attempts to circumvent rate limits, account sharing, reselling outputs, and any use that imposes disproportionate load may result in throttling, suspension, or termination without refund.

Pricing changes: we may change prices at any time. For active Pro subscribers, price changes apply only at the start of your next billing period and we will notify you by email at least 14 days in advance.

Referral discounts: if you sign up using a valid Examo referral link, or you upgrade from inside a valid shared course, you may receive 25% off your first Pro billing period only unless a different referral offer is shown at checkout. Referral discounts do not apply as a continuous recurring discount, cannot be combined with every promotion, and may be withdrawn if we detect abuse, self-referrals, duplicate accounts, or fraud.

4. Billing & Subscription

Payment processor: all paid subscriptions are processed by Stripe. Accepted payment methods include Visa, Mastercard, American Express, JCB, UnionPay, Apple Pay, Google Pay, iDEAL, and SEPA Direct Debit. By subscribing you authorise recurring charges on your selected payment method.

Auto-renewal: Pro subscriptions auto-renew at the end of each billing period (monthly or annual) at the then-current price, until cancelled.

Cancellation: you may cancel at any time from your account settings. Cancellation takes effect at the end of the current billing period; you keep Pro access until then.

Failed payments: if a renewal payment fails, we will retry for up to 14 days. If unsuccessful, your account is automatically downgraded to the Free plan and your Pro features become unavailable.

VAT & invoicing: EU VAT is calculated based on your billing country. You can download invoices from your account.

Referral commissions: referrers may earn one 20% commission from a referred user's first paid Pro billing period, either through a valid referral link or when a user upgrades from inside a course shared by that course's owner. Re-sharing someone else's course does not transfer the commission; eligible course-share rewards belong to the course owner. A user can generate only one payable referral reward across all referral sources. Commissions are paid manually only after the referrer contacts Examo and our system verifies at least €20 in unpaid eligible commission. If a referred user requests or receives a refund for the first paid Pro payment, referral commission for that payment is not payable and may be rejected or reversed. We may also delay, reject, or reverse referral rewards connected to chargebacks, fraud, self-referrals, duplicate accounts, or other abuse.

5. EU Consumer Right of Withdrawal & Refunds

Under the EU Consumer Rights Directive (2011/83/EU), if you are a consumer resident in the EU/EEA you normally have a 14-day right to withdraw from a distance contract for digital services. This right remains available for a new Pro subscription if you request withdrawal within 14 days and you have not used any paid AI services after the paid subscription started.

Immediate access waiver: if you choose to start using Examo's paid AI services immediately after purchase (for example, using the Pro AI Tutor, generating Pro-tier summaries, flashcards, mind maps, cheat sheets, audio summaries, exam practice, or other paid AI outputs), you expressly request immediate performance of the digital service and acknowledge that your statutory right of withdrawal may be lost once the service has been supplied, in line with Art. 16(m) of the Directive.

Withdrawal and refund requests: if you have not used any paid AI service in the first 14 days of a new Pro subscription, contact [email protected] to request withdrawal and a full refund. If we reject a withdrawal or refund request, we will provide valid proof or a clear explanation of the reason for rejection, such as evidence that paid AI services were used after the paid subscription began, the request was made outside the applicable period, or the account is not eligible under these Terms or applicable law. Outside the statutory withdrawal rules, refund requests are handled case-by-case at our discretion.

Statutory rights: nothing in these Terms affects your statutory rights as a consumer.

6. User Accounts

Registration: you must register an account to access most features. Provide accurate, current, and complete information.

Security: keep your credentials confidential and notify us immediately of any unauthorised use at [email protected]. You are responsible for all activity under your account.

One account per user: accounts are personal to you. Sharing logins, distributing access, or creating multiple accounts to bypass rate limits is prohibited.

7. Acceptable Use

You agree NOT to:

  • Resell, sublicense, scrape, or systematically extract Services or AI outputs.
  • Use the Services to generate content that is illegal, defamatory, hateful, sexually explicit involving minors, or otherwise harmful.
  • Attempt to reverse-engineer, jailbreak or prompt-inject the AI to bypass safety measures or rate limits.
  • Submit content you do not have the right to upload (including third-party copyrighted course material that you are not licensed to digitise).
  • Interfere with or disrupt the Services, our infrastructure, or other users' access.
  • Use the Services to commit academic misconduct in violation of your institution's rules.

Examo enforces these rules with automated and manual review. Violations may result in warning, throttling, or immediate suspension or termination of your account.

8. Intellectual Property

Examo IP: the Services, software, prompts, design, logos, and branded content are owned by Examo or its licensors and protected by intellectual property law.

Your content: you retain all rights to the course materials, notes, essays, and other content you upload ("User Content"). You grant Examo a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free licence to host, process, and display User Content as needed to provide the Services to you.

AI outputs: outputs generated by the AI in response to your inputs (summaries, smart notes, flashcards, cheat sheets, AI Tutor responses, etc.) are yours to use for personal study and academic purposes, subject to your institution's academic-integrity rules. Identical or similar outputs may be generated for other users; AI outputs are non-exclusive.

Limited licence: we grant you a personal, non-transferable, revocable licence to access and use the Services for non-commercial study purposes while these Terms remain in force.

9. AI-Generated Content Disclaimer

Examo's study tools are powered by large language models that can produce inaccurate, outdated, or misleading information ("hallucinations"). You must verify any AI output before relying on it for exams, assignments, professional decisions, or any high-stakes context.

Essay assistance: intended as a writing aid only. Submitting AI-generated text as your own work may violate your institution's academic-integrity rules. Examo is not responsible for any academic consequences resulting from misuse.

AI Tutor: provides educational explanations, not professional advice (legal, medical, financial, etc.). Mathematical, scientific or formula- heavy outputs should be independently verified.

Practice questions & flashcards:generated from your study material; we strive for accuracy but cannot guarantee correctness.

10. Privacy & Data Protection

Our Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and protect your personal data and is incorporated into these Terms by reference. Examo complies with the EU GDPR, UK GDPR, and applicable data-protection laws.

11. Suspension & Termination

By you: you may delete your account at any time from settings. Deletion is irreversible.

By us: we may suspend or terminate your account, with or without notice, for material breach of these Terms, suspected fraud or abuse, or where required by law. Where reasonably possible we will give you advance notice and an opportunity to cure.

Inactive accounts: if you do not log in for 6 months and do not have an active paid or trial subscription, we may delete your inactive account and associated personal study data. Courses you created or owned may also be deleted, which means other users will lose access to courses you shared with them. Payment, tax, fraud-prevention, and security records may be retained where required by law or legitimate business need.

Effect of termination: your right to use the Services ends immediately. Provisions that by their nature should survive termination (intellectual property, liability, disputes, indemnity) remain in force.

12. Disclaimers & Limitation of Liability

The Services are provided "as is" and "as available" without warranties of any kind, express or implied, except as required by law.

To the maximum extent permitted by law, Examo, its directors, employees and partners are not liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, including loss of profits, data, goodwill, or exam performance, arising out of or related to your use of the Services.

Where liability cannot be excluded (e.g. for death, personal injury caused by negligence, gross negligence, fraud, or any liability that cannot be limited under applicable law), our total aggregate liability is limited to the amount you paid Examo in the 12 months preceding the event giving rise to the claim, or €100 if you are a Free user.

Nothing in these Terms limits your statutory rights as a consumer.

13. Indemnity

You agree to indemnify and hold Examo harmless from any third-party claim arising out of (i) your User Content, (ii) your breach of these Terms, or (iii) your violation of any law or third-party right, except to the extent the claim results from Examo's gross negligence or wilful misconduct.

14. Service Availability & Modifications

We aim for high availability but do not guarantee uninterrupted access. We may modify, suspend, or discontinue parts of the Services for maintenance, security, legal reasons, or to improve the platform. Where changes materially reduce paid functionality, we will notify Pro subscribers and offer a pro-rated refund where appropriate.

15. Third-Party Links & Integrations

The Services may link to or integrate with third-party websites and services (e.g. our payment processor). Their terms and privacy policies govern your use of those services; Examo is not responsible for their content or practices.

16. Force Majeure

Examo is not liable for failure to perform due to events beyond our reasonable control, including AI provider outages, infrastructure failures, war, civil unrest, pandemics, government action, or acts of nature.

17. Governing Law & Disputes

These Terms are governed by the laws of the Netherlands, without regard to its conflict-of-laws rules. The competent courts of Amsterdam have non-exclusive jurisdiction. If you are a consumer resident in the EU/EEA, you may also bring proceedings in the courts of your country of residence and rely on the mandatory consumer-protection laws of that country. The European Commission's Online Dispute Resolution platform is available at ec.europa.eu/consumers/odr.

18. Changes to these Terms

We may update these Terms. Material changes will be announced by email and/or via in-product notification at least 14 days before they take effect. Continued use after the effective date constitutes acceptance. If you do not agree, you must stop using the Services and may cancel any paid plan for a pro-rated refund of the unused portion.

19. Accessibility

Examo strives to comply with WCAG 2.1 AA. If you encounter an accessibility barrier, contact [email protected] and we will work to address it.
