Terms of Service

Effective date: the date you first accept these Terms or pay an invoice ("Effective Date")
Last updated: 21 October 2025

These Terms of Service ("Terms") are a legally binding agreement between Renocount Oy ("Renocount", "we", "us") and the entity or person agreeing to them ("Customer", "you"). By clicking "accept", paying an invoice, or using the Services, you agree to these Terms including the DPA, Security Overview, Sub-processor List, and Order Form/Service Description incorporated by reference.

Incorporation by Reference

The following documents form part of this Agreement as if set out in full: (i) the Data Processing Agreement (DPA); (ii) the Order Form / Service Description (including any SLA credits); (iii) the Security Overview; and (iv) the Sub-processor List. Current versions are available at renocount.com/legal/terms (or successor URL).

Order of Precedence

If there is a conflict, the Order Form / Service Description controls, then the DPA, then these Terms, then the Security Overview.

B2B only

Unless expressly stated otherwise in an order form, the Services are provided to business customers, not consumers.

1) Definitions

"Agreement": these Terms plus any order form, proposal, Service Description, and the Data Processing Agreement (DPA).

"Services": Renocount's software platform for tenant communications, building FAQs, maintenance ticketing/routing, and property data tools (Self-Service Platform), and any professional/onboarding or advisory work we perform (Managed Services).

"User Content": material you or your users provide (e.g., messages, prompts, photos, videos, files, metadata).

"Outputs/Deliverables": content or results generated by the Services (Outputs = platform use; Deliverables = Managed Services).

"Third-Party Services/Models": services and AI models operated by third parties (e.g., WhatsApp Business API/Twilio, cloud hosts, LLM providers).

"Confidential Information": non-public information disclosed by a party that is marked or reasonably understood as confidential.

"Building Ecosystem": the set of authorized stakeholders tied to a specific property (e.g., housing company/owner, property manager/isännöitsijä, current maintenance/renovation vendors, and their successors).

"Building Data": factual, operational, and technical information about a specific property (e.g., component inventories, maintenance tickets and status history, task photos of fixtures/systems, renovation logs, fault codes, equipment IDs, schedules, and non-personal diagnostic data) that is inherently building-specific.

"Customer-Only Data": your proprietary non-building operational content (e.g., your internal pricing sheets, separate proposals/quotes to your clients, internal playbooks, HR docs, pure sales pipeline data) that is not required for building operations and is designated as such (see §3.8).

2) Access & Use

2.1 License

Subject to the Agreement and timely payment, Renocount grants you a non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable right to access and use the Services for your internal business purposes.

2.2 Accounts

You will provide accurate registration data, maintain security of credentials, and remain responsible for activities under your accounts.

2.3 Acceptable Use

You will not: (i) violate law; (ii) infringe IP, privacy, or publicity rights; (iii) bypass security, rate limits, or RLS policies; (iv) overload, disrupt, or scrape; (v) use the Services/Outputs to build or train a competing product or model; (vi) upload harmful code; or (vii) misuse messaging channels (e.g., spam via WhatsApp).

2.4 Changes

We may improve or modify the Services. Non-material changes may occur without notice; material adverse changes will be notified at least 14 days in advance.

3) Ownership, Permissions & Model Training

3.1 User Content

You retain ownership of User Content. You grant Renocount a non-exclusive, royalty-free, worldwide, sublicensable license to host, process, transmit, display, and modify User Content solely to provide, secure, support, and maintain the Services.

3.2 No Training by Default (Opt-In Only)

We do not use User Content or personal data for model training/fine-tuning unless you explicitly opt in in writing, and only as permitted by applicable law and our DPA. Models already trained cannot be "untrained".

3.3 Outputs (Self-Service Platform)

Unless otherwise agreed in writing, you own the Outputs you generate. You grant us a limited license to use Outputs internally for quality, security, abuse detection, and support. We will not publicly showcase Outputs in a way that identifies you without your prior consent.

3.4 Deliverables (Managed Services)

Upon full payment, you own Deliverables, excluding Renocount's software, models, tools, and methodologies. We retain a non-exclusive, royalty-free, perpetual license to use Deliverables internally for quality and security, and externally for marketing only with your prior written consent if you can be identified.

3A) Building Data Commons (Building-Specific Data Sharing)

3A.1 Purpose

Housing companies and property managers need continuity. To support safety, compliance, and efficiency, Building Data is shared within the Building Ecosystem.

3A.2 License & Access

You grant Renocount a perpetual, irrevocable, royalty-free, building-scoped license to host, maintain, and make Building Data available to authorized parties within the relevant Building Ecosystem (including successors and replacements), strictly for building operations (maintenance, compliance, safety, asset history, documentation). This license is subject to applicable data protection laws, including GDPR rights to erasure and data portability.

3A.3 Exit of a Party

If you or one of your vendors leaves the Building Ecosystem, their contributed Building Data remains with the building and will continue to be available to the remaining/next authorized stakeholders. This ensures the building retains its operational memory.

  • You may still export (see §5) your contributions.
  • We will remove your branding and marketing elements from Building Data upon request, where feasible, without degrading core building records.
  • Personal data minimization: we strive to store people-light Building Data. Where personal data exists (e.g., worker names in an activity log), it will be retained only as necessary for audit/compliance or replaced with role-based identifiers where feasible.

4) Plans, Term, Fees & Minimum Commitment

4.1 Scope & Fees

Scope, pricing, and term are set out on our website or in an order form/proposal.

4.2 Initial Minimum Term

Unless the order form states otherwise, subscriptions/retainers have a minimum initial commitment of six (6) months ("Initial Term").

4.3 Renewal

After the Initial Term, subscriptions renew monthly unless either party gives 30 days' notice to not renew.

4.4 Cancellation

You may cancel effective at the end of the current term. Early cancellation during the Initial Term does not relieve payment for the remainder of the Initial Term.

5) Data Portability, Return & Deletion

5.1 Export Anytime

You may download or request a copy of data you provided (User Content and associated metadata we store for you) at any time during the term.

5.2 On Termination

Upon termination/expiry, we will, on request, provide a 30-day export window. After that, we will delete or irreversibly anonymize Customer Data from active systems, subject to legal retention and standard backups.

5.3 What You Can Export

You can export: (a) Customer-Only Data; and (b) a copy of the Building Data you contributed (for your records or migration). However, Building Data itself remains available within the Building Ecosystem per §3A after your exit.

6) Data Protection, Security & Residency

6.1 GDPR

Where we process personal data on your behalf, you are the controller and we are the processor. The DPA forms part of this Agreement.

6.2 EU/EEA Residency

Default processing/storage is in the EU/EEA (or adequate jurisdictions). Any non-EEA processing follows GDPR Chapter V (e.g., SCCs).

6.3 Security

We implement appropriate technical/organizational measures (encryption in transit, access controls, audit logs, vulnerability management).

6.4 Incidents

We will notify you within 72 hours of becoming aware of a personal data breach affecting your data, including GDPR-required details. We will also notify the relevant supervisory authority within 72 hours where required by GDPR.

7) Intellectual Property

Except for Customer's rights in User Content, Outputs, and Deliverables as stated above, all rights in the Services (software, models, interfaces, documentation, and know-how) belong to Renocount or its licensors. Feedback is licensed to Renocount on a perpetual, royalty-free basis.

8) Confidentiality

Each party must protect the other's Confidential Information and use it only for Agreement purposes. Exclusions: public information, already known without breach, independently developed, or lawfully obtained from a third party. Legally required disclosures are permitted with prompt notice (where lawful).

9) Service Levels & Support (SLA)

Availability target: 99.5% monthly for the Self-Service Platform (excluding planned maintenance and force majeure).

Planned maintenance: typically outside 21:00–06:00 EET/EEST with reasonable prior notice.

Third-party dependency. Downtime or delivery failures caused by Third-Party Services/carriers do not count against SLA targets.

Support hours: Mon–Fri 09:00–17:00 EET/EEST (Finnish public holidays excluded).

Response times: best effort within 1 business day; critical incidents prioritized.

Service credits (if any) will be defined in the order form and are your sole remedy for SLA issues.

10) Warranties & Disclaimers

The Services are provided "as is" and "as available." To the fullest extent permitted by law, Renocount disclaims all warranties, whether express, implied, or statutory (including merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement). AI outputs are probabilistic and may contain errors; you are responsible for review and use.

11) Indemnities

11.1 By Customer

You will indemnify and hold Renocount harmless from third-party claims arising from (i) your breach of the Agreement or law; (ii) your User Content; or (iii) misuse of the Services.

11.2 By Renocount

We will defend and indemnify you against third-party claims alleging that the Services (as provided by us) infringe EU or Finnish IP rights, provided you: (a) promptly notify us; (b) allow us sole control of the defense; and (c) cooperate reasonably. We may procure rights, modify, or terminate the affected portion with a pro-rata refund. Exclusions: your unauthorized modifications/combinations or misuse.

12) Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law: (a) Neither party is liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or lost profits/revenue, even if advised of the possibility. (b) Aggregate cap: Each party's total liability under the Agreement is limited to the amounts paid or payable by you to Renocount in the 12 months prior to the event giving rise to liability, or €1,000, whichever is greater. These allocations are fundamental to the Agreement's risk allocation.

13) Termination

Either party may terminate for: (i) material breach not cured within 14 days of notice; or (ii) insolvency/bankruptcy. You may terminate for convenience at term-end per §4. Effect. Access ceases; all undisputed amounts become due. Data export/deletion follow §5.

14) Changes to Terms

We may update these Terms. Material adverse changes will be notified in advance (email or in-app). Continued use after the effective date constitutes acceptance. If you do not agree, stop using the Services before the change takes effect.

15) Governing Law & Disputes

Governing Law: This Agreement is governed by Finnish law (excluding conflict rules).

Jurisdiction: Exclusive jurisdiction of the District Court of Helsinki, Finland.

Language: English. (If translated, the English version controls.)

Dispute Resolution: Before initiating formal proceedings, parties will attempt to resolve disputes through good faith negotiations for 30 days. If unresolved, disputes will be resolved in the District Court of Helsinki. (If you prefer arbitration (FCCA rules), we can reflect that in the order form.)

16) Force Majeure

Neither party is liable for delays/failures caused by events beyond reasonable control (e.g., natural disasters, war, terrorism, labour disputes, widespread cloud outages, or government action), with reasonable mitigation.

17) Publicity

We may reference your name and logo in customer lists with your prior consent. Public case studies/testimonials require your written approval.

18) Assignment & Miscellaneous

Assignment. You may not assign without our written consent (not unreasonably withheld). We may assign in connection with merger, acquisition, or sale of assets.

Severability. If any provision is unenforceable, the remainder remains in effect.

Waiver. Failure to enforce is not a waiver.

Entire Agreement. The Agreement is the entire agreement on its subject and supersedes prior terms.

Limitation of Actions. Any claim or cause of action arising from this Agreement must be brought within three (3) years of the date the claim or cause of action arose, or it will be forever barred.

19) Notices

Legal notices must be in writing and sent to the contacts in the order form (or to christian.ahlstrom@renocount.com). Notices are deemed given when received.
