By using our services you agree to these terms.
Article 1 – Definitions
Account: the personal account through which a User accesses the Service.
Client-Side Encryption: the encryption of Content on the User's device, before the Content is transmitted to the servers of beebeeb.io.
Service: the cloud storage and synchronisation service offered under the name beebeeb.io, including all related web, desktop and mobile applications.
User: any natural person or legal entity that enters into an Agreement with beebeeb.io or uses the Service.

Agreement: the agreement between beebeeb.io and the User to which these terms apply.
Key: the cryptographic key(s) required to decrypt the User's Content.
Zero-Knowledge Architecture: the design principle whereby beebeeb.io has, by technical design, no access to the unencrypted Content of the User, because encryption and decryption take place exclusively on the User's device.
Article 2 – Applicability
2.1 These terms apply to all offers, quotations, agreements and services of beebeeb.io, unless agreed otherwise in writing.
2.2 Any general terms and conditions of the User are expressly excluded.
2.3 If one or more provisions of these terms are or become invalid or unenforceable, the remaining provisions remain in full force. The parties shall replace the invalid provision with a valid provision that approximates the original purpose as closely as possible.
2.4 beebeeb.io is entitled to amend these terms. Amendments shall be announced at least thirty (30) days prior to entry into force, by email or via the Service. If the User does not agree with the amendments, the User may terminate the Agreement effective on the date the amendments take effect.
Article 3 – Formation and nature of the Agreement
3.1 The Agreement is formed at the moment the User registers for the Service and accepts these terms, or at the moment the User actually starts using the Service.
3.2 The Service is provided on a best-efforts basis. beebeeb.io does not guarantee uninterrupted availability, error-free operation or specific results, except as expressly set out in any Service Level Agreement.
3.3 The User must be at least 18 years old, or otherwise legally competent, to enter into an Agreement. Consumers benefit from a statutory right of withdrawal of fourteen (14) days, on the understanding that this right lapses once the performance of the Service has begun with the consumer's express consent.
Article 4 – Account, registration and security
4.1 Use of the Service requires registration of an Account. The User must provide accurate, complete and up-to-date information and keep it current.
4.2 The User is solely responsible for keeping login credentials and Keys secret. Access to the Account by third parties is at the User's risk.
4.3 beebeeb.io strongly recommends the use of two-factor authentication and strong passwords. The User must promptly inform beebeeb.io of any (suspected) unauthorised access to the Account.
4.4 beebeeb.io has the right to block or terminate an Account in case of (suspected) abuse, breach of these terms, or based on a lawful order from a competent authority.
Article 5 – Zero-Knowledge encryption and key management
5.1 The Service is designed according to the Zero-Knowledge principle. Content is encrypted on the User's device by means of Client-Side Encryption before it is transmitted to the infrastructure of beebeeb.io.
5.2 The Keys required to decrypt the Content are derived and/or stored exclusively on the User's device. beebeeb.io has no access to the Keys and cannot view, restore or decrypt the unencrypted Content.
5.3 The User acknowledges and accepts that loss of the Key, or of the password from which the Key is derived, results in permanent and irreversible loss of access to the Content. beebeeb.io cannot provide recovery in such case, regardless of the cause.
5.4 beebeeb.io may optionally offer a recovery mechanism (such as a recovery key or social recovery option). Use of such a mechanism is the sole responsibility of the User and may, depending on the chosen mechanism, affect the extent to which the Zero-Knowledge principle is preserved. The User shall be informed of this upon activation.
5.5 Due to the Zero-Knowledge Architecture, beebeeb.io cannot comply with requests requiring access to the unencrypted Content, regardless of the source of the request (including requests by the User itself, third parties or government authorities). Pursuant to a lawful order, beebeeb.io may only provide the encrypted Content to the extent that it is stored by beebeeb.io.
Article 6 – Availability and maintenance
6.1 beebeeb.io endeavours to make the Service available as continuously as possible, but does not guarantee uninterrupted availability except as agreed in any Service Level Agreement.
6.2 beebeeb.io has the right to temporarily take the Service out of service for maintenance, adjustments or improvements. beebeeb.io will, where possible, announce planned maintenance in advance and carry it out outside business hours.
