Terms of use

Who they apply to

They apply to everyone who uses the service: schools and their team (administrators, teachers), students through their personal space, and plain visitors of the public pages.

The price of a school's Thempo subscription is not set here: it is agreed with each school, in a separate agreement.

Your access

A school's team signs in with email and password; everyone keeps theirs to themselves. The student has no account: the personal link received by email serves as identification. That link is as good as a password — it is not to be shared, and the school can issue a new one if it goes astray.

Each school manages its own team accounts: creation, roles, deactivation. A deactivated account loses access immediately.

Everyone's role

The class, the enrolment and the plan belong to the contract between the student and their school: the school sets its prices, its schedules and its cancellation or refund terms. Thempo is the tool that runs this relationship, not a party to that contract.

Online payments go straight to the school's Stripe account: Benford Tech collects no money and takes no commission. Any question about a class, a plan or a refund therefore goes to the school first.

What is not allowed

Using the service for an unlawful activity; trying to bypass its protections or to access another school's data; bulk-extracting data; impersonating someone else; reselling access to the service. Fair, normal use of the service has nothing to fear from this list.

Content

Each school publishes its own content — presentation, photos, classes, prices, teaching materials — under its responsibility, as detailed in the legal notice. The publisher may remove manifestly unlawful content reported to it.

Availability and changes

The service is provided as is, without any availability guarantee. The publisher strives to keep it accessible, backed up and up to date; interruptions remain possible, notably for maintenance. The service evolves regularly: features may appear, change or disappear.

Suspension and closure

In case of a serious breach of these terms, the publisher may suspend an access or close a space — after a warning when possible, immediately when security requires it.

A school may close its space at any time. What happens to the data is described in the privacy policy: deletion on request, except accounting records kept for ten years as the law requires.

Your data

The processing of personal data — who decides what, what is collected, for how long, your GDPR rights — is described in the privacy policy, which is part of these terms.

Changes to these terms

These terms may evolve with the service; the date at the top of the page is authoritative. Notable changes are announced to schools. Continuing to use the service after an update means accepting the new version.

Governing law

These terms are governed by French law. In case of difficulty, let's look for an amicable solution first — the publisher's details are in the legal notice. Failing an agreement, the French courts have jurisdiction.
