These User Terms govern your access and use of the Services. Please read them carefully as these User Terms are a legally binding contract between you and the Company.

3. HOW GOLDIE WORKS

Goldie is an app that helps professionals manage their business, including by scheduling appointments, processing payments and reducing client no-shows using text message reminders. Goldie is currently available on Android, iOS and web platforms.

How messages work on Starter, Basic (legacy) and Premium (legacy)

Under the Starter, Basic (legacy) and Premium (legacy) plans, the reminders are sent via your device and carrier, so your phone or tablet must have text messaging capabilities and an active mobile subscription. Messages will come out of your mobile phone plan, with no extra charges from us. Due to restrictions from the iOS and Android operating systems, a tap is required for each reminder to be sent. You can receive a push notification each time you need to tap for sending an SMS reminder, or you can go to Menu → Messages each morning and send the reminders for the whole day. Under the Starter, Basic (legacy) and Premium (legacy) plans, text messages will come from your number and clients can reply to you.

How messages work on Pro, Teams, Ultimate (legacy), and Staff (legacy)

Under the Pro, Teams, Ultimate (legacy) and Staff (legacy) plans, you can choose how your messages will be sent. Save more time by having messages sent through our system, or send them through your device for a personal touch. Using the Goldie system, the reminders are fully automated. Unused extra messages are carried over to the next monthly usage cycle, after which they will expire. Using the Goldie system, text messages come from a generic number. Clients can reply to that number, and the messages will be redirected to your number. Depending on the length of the reply and types of characters, a certain number of messages will be consumed out of your monthly message quota. Client replies are currently available in the United States, United Kingdom, Australia, Canada, Romania, Ireland, Puerto Rico, Sweden, and South Africa. To request this feature in your country, please email us at support@heygoldie.com.

Disclaimer about sending marketing messages

In certain countries, such as the US and Romania, the law requires express client consent to send them promotional messages. You are solely responsible for obtaining express consent from your clients to send them messages via Goldie. You agree to document this consent and show us this information in the event of a compliance audit or formal complaint. You guarantee that your clients have granted you express consent to send them messages of the type that you intend to send them. If for any reason the Company suspects that the Clients have not given you express consent, it reserves the right to request a written explanation from you, the Client, including the method of collecting the client’s phone numbers and a guarantee signed by you that all the people on your client list agreed to receive marketing text messages from you. The Company may take any action it thinks appropriate in the case of non-compliance, including but not limited to deletion of the account.

AI‑Assisted Features

As part of the Services, Goldie may make available certain optional features powered by artificial intelligence (the “AI Features”), which allow Users to generate draft content such as logos, service descriptions, cancellation policies, and “About My Business” descriptions.

You are hereby informed that the AI Features rely on automated artificial intelligence systems and that the content generated through such features is produced by AI and not by a human.

Use of the AI Features is optional. Any content generated using the AI Features:
• is provided solely as a draft or suggestion;
• may be reviewed, modified, replaced or discarded by you at any time; and
• is used or published only at your sole discretion and responsibility.

AI-generated content produced through the AI Features is made available exclusively to Users and does not autonomously interact with, communicate to, or make decisions affecting your Clients.

You are solely responsible for:
• the prompts, instructions, data and other inputs you provide when using the AI Features; and
• any content generated, selected, used or published by you as a result of such use.

You undertake to ensure that your inputs, prompts and the resulting AIgenerated content do not infringe any applicable law or the rights of any third party, including intellectual property rights, rights of publicity or image, privacy rights, contractual rights or other proprietary or personal rights.

The AI Features do not provide legal, business, financial or other professional advice and do not carry out automated decisionmaking producing legal or similarly significant effects. You remain solely responsible for assessing the suitability, accuracy and compliance of any AI generated content with applicable laws and your contractual obligations towards Clients.

The AI Features are powered by third‑party artificial intelligence technology providers (including OpenAI). Use of the AI Features may therefore be subject to technical limitations or inaccuracies inherent in such systems.

To the extent permitted by applicable law, Goldie does not verify, endorse or assume any responsibility for AIgenerated content and shall not be liable for any claims, damages, losses or liabilities arising out of or in connection with:
• your inputs or prompts;
• the AI generated content itself; or
• your use of, reliance on or publication of such content.

This clause does not affect any mandatory rights or liabilities that cannot be excluded under applicable law.

15. INDEMNITY

You agree to indemnify and hold us harmless for any thirdparty claims, losses, damages, liabilities, costs and expenses (including reasonable legal fees, court costs and settlement costs) arising out of or in connection with: (a) your breach of the Agreement; (b) your infringement of thirdparty intellectual property rights through your content or your use of the Services contrary to the Agreement; or (c) your unlawful use of the Services. This indemnity shall not apply to the extent that the claim arises from our own breach of the Agreement, our wilful misconduct, fraud, or from the Services themselves as provided by us where used in accordance with the Agreement.

We will promptly notify you of any claim for which we seek indemnity, give you reasonable information and cooperation, and, subject to our rights and obligations under applicable law, allow you to control the defence and settlement of the claim.

16. CHOICE OF LAW

This Agreement shall be governed by the laws in force in Romania. The offer and acceptance of this contract are deemed to have occurred in Romania.

If you are a consumer, this choice does not deprive you of the protection afforded by provisions that cannot be derogated from by agreement under the law of your habitual residence.

17. FORUM OF DISPUTE

You agree that any dispute arising from or relating to this Agreement will be resolved by the competent courts in Romania.

If you are an EU-resident consumer, you may also bring an action before the courts of your country of residence, as mandated by imperative rules.

The Parties may, by mutual agreement, seek to resolve disputes through alternative dispute resolution mechanisms, including mediation, without prejudice to the consumer’s right to bring proceedings before the competent courts.

If you are a consumer and you are not satisfied with our response or we fail to respond, you have the right to escalate your complaint to:

a) the National Authority for Consumer Protection in Romania at: https://anpc.ro/.
b) European Commission's Online Dispute Resolution Platform at: https://ec.europa.eu/consumers/odr.

Filing a complaint does not affect your right to seek legal remedies through the competent courts in Romania.

18. FORCE MAJEURE

Neither Party shall be liable for any failure or delay in the performance of its obligations under this Agreement to the extent that such failure or delay is the result of events beyond our control, i.e. force majeure and unforeseeable circumstances,  including, but not limited to, acts of God, war, insurrection, riots, terrorism, crime, labor shortages (including lawful and unlawful strikes), embargoes, postal disruption, communication disruption, unavailability of payment processors, failure or shortage of infrastructure, shortage of materials, or any other event beyond our control.

19. SEVERABILITY

In the event that a provision of this Agreement is found to be unlawful, conflicting with another provision of the Agreement, or otherwise unenforceable, the Agreement will remain in force as though it had been entered into without that unenforceable provision being included in it.

If two or more provisions of this Agreement are deemed to conflict with each other’s operation, the interpretation that best reflects the parties’ original intent and ensures compliance with applicable law shall prevail.

20. NON-WAIVER

Non-enforcement of any particular provision or provisions of this Agreement or any applicable law should not be construed as our waiver of the right to enforce that same provision under the same or different circumstances at any time in the future.

21. SUSPENSION, TERMINATION & CANCELLATION

We may suspend or terminate your access to the Services at our discretion for legitimate reasons, including but not limited to:

If termination results from your breach of this Agreement, we reserve the right to withhold refunds for Services already provided or for costs reasonably incurred. This does not affect any mandatory refund rights available to consumers under applicable law.

The Company may also terminate the Agreement for convenience, by providing you with at least 15 days’ prior written notice. Termination will take effect on the date specified in the notice, without court intervention or other formalities.

You may terminate the Agreement for convenience under the conditions mentioned under art. 9.2. above.

Our liability for refunding you, if you have paid anything to us, will be limited to the amount you paid for goods or services which have not yet been and will not be delivered, except in cases where the termination or cancellation was due to your breach of this Agreement, in which case no refund or other compensation whatsoever will be owed. Under no circumstances, including termination or cancellation of our Service to you, will we be liable for any losses related to actions of other Users following termination.

In cases of suspension or termination based on content, conduct, or alleged noncompliance, we will provide you with:
• a statement of reasons for the measure,
• information regarding our internal complainthandling mechanism, and
