This Agreement binds Swimo (Planitou) only to Subscribers, which can only be Organizations (within the meaning of paragraphs 1.4 and 1.7). FOR CLARITY, THIS AGREEMENT IS NOT INTENDED FOR CONSUMERS.

This Agreement governs any free or paid use by Subscribers of the Swimo (Planitou) solutions (including support, subscription purchases and future purchases referring to this Agreement). Unless otherwise stated, the provisions of this Agreement apply to all Swimo (Planitou) solutions.

This Agreement incorporates by reference the Acceptable Use Policy and the Privacy Policy. In the event of any inconsistency between these policies and this Agreement, the text of the Agreement prevails.

Swimo (Planitou) acts as a Processor. Subscribers using the Swimo (Planitou) solutions and subject to the GDPR may request a Data Processing Addendum. Such requests will be handled on a case-by-case basis, at the discretion of Swimo (Planitou).

In some cases, Swimo (Planitou) and an Organization may establish a partnership for the joint Processing of Personal Information, which will be the subject of a separate written agreement.

3. Account opening

An Organization must complete a subscription form to obtain a User Account. All subscription information provided by the Organization must be accurate, current and complete. Upon receipt of a confirmation email, the Organization is considered a Subscriber. Swimo (Planitou) reserves the right, without obligation, to request proof of the information provided.

You must keep the information in all User Profiles associated with your Organization up to date so that we can transmit notifications, declarations and other information by email or via the Swimo (Planitou) solutions. The Account Administrator may authorize Authorized Users to complete and modify this information themselves.

You accept full responsibility for any error, omission or inaccuracy in the User Profiles associated with your Organization and for actions taken through the associated User Accounts, provided that at any time you may correct inaccurate, unclear or incomplete information.

The entire registration procedure, including changes to the information provided, may be performed by one or more Account Administrators; the Subscriber is responsible for designating and revoking such Account Administrators.

At any time, the person with the highest authority at the Subscriber may contact Swimo (Planitou) to make the necessary changes to the list of Account Administrators. We disclaim any responsibility for an Account Administrator making changes without the necessary authority.

4. Pricing

Except for Free Swimo (Planitou) solutions, all Swimo (Planitou) solutions are billed monthly, annually or on a one-time basis. The rates for each Solution are set by fixed package or by the number of children, students or participants, unless a flat rate applies to a specific feature or situation. Rates displayed on the Swimo (Planitou) website at the time of your subscription, or those set out in the Swimo (Planitou) proposal, are the applicable rates but may be adjusted per Article 28. Swimo (Planitou) may correct any pricing error by notifying you.

By validating a subscription, you agree to pay all fees under the chosen terms. Unless otherwise stated, payments are made in European dollars, US dollars or Euros, based on your geographic location or the information provided at subscription. If the authorized number of children, students or participants increases during your subscription, you will be billed accordingly, on a monthly or annual prorated basis at the current rate.

5. Subscriptions and changes

This Agreement applies whether your subscription is taken directly with Swimo (Planitou) or through one of its resellers. You must verify the accuracy of the information provided regarding:

  • the number and type of Authorized Users;
  • the Swimo (Planitou) solutions chosen;
  • any other specific conditions agreed with Swimo (Planitou).

5.1. Resellers and changes

Resellers are not authorized to offer warranties or make commitments on behalf of Swimo (Planitou), and we are not bound by obligations other than those expressly set out in this Agreement.

Subject to Article 19, you may at any time modify your subscription, add options, reduce your services or terminate them. To do so, contact a member of the Swimo (Planitou) team by email or phone.

6. Payment

Payments are accepted by Mastercard, Visa and American Express credit cards, or by bank/Interac transfer and pre-authorized debit. Swimo (Planitou) may change accepted payment methods at any time. Your banking information is processed securely by Stripe under PCI standards. You agree that Swimo (Planitou) may charge your credit card upon renewal, for unpaid fees, or for any additional fees.

7. Taxes

Your payments under this Agreement do not include taxes or duties payable with respect to the Swimo (Planitou) solutions in the country where payment is made or received. To the extent such taxes or duties are payable by Swimo (Planitou), you must pay Swimo (Planitou) the amount of these taxes or duties in addition to all fees due under this Agreement. Swimo (Planitou) may claim payment of such taxes at any time after billing if they are retroactively demanded by a government or tax authority.

If you are tax-exempt, you must provide supporting documentation and Swimo (Planitou) will make reasonable efforts to provide the billing documents that may allow you to obtain a refund or credit from the tax authority, if available.

8. Free Swimo (Planitou) solutions

The use of free or beta Solutions by Swimo (Planitou) is subject to specific conditions, for a limited period. These solutions may not be used to analyze competition or for similar purposes. Swimo (Planitou) may interrupt access at any time at its discretion, without notice.

Beta Solutions are in development, may be unusable or incomplete and are likely to contain more errors and bugs than generally available Swimo (Planitou) solutions. WE THEREFORE OFFER NO WARRANTY ON BETA SOLUTIONS AND YOU ASSUME THE RISK OF ANY USE OF THEM.

9. Management of Authorized Users and User Accounts

Access to the Swimo (Planitou) solutions is reserved exclusively for Authorized Users and Account Administrators.

Features may vary depending on the Swimo (Planitou) Solution and the type of Authorized User; Account Administrators are responsible for setting, validating and maintaining this allocation. You must pay the fees necessary to increase the authorized number of children, students or participants.

You are responsible for each Authorized User’s compliance with this Agreement. Any use of the Swimo (Planitou) solutions by you and your Authorized Users must be within the scope of use and only for your benefit or that of your Affiliates.

You must set information-security policies requiring Authorized Users to adopt safe practices with respect to passwords, notably regarding the number and type of characters used, to keep them strictly confidential and not share them with any other person.

You agree to notify Swimo (Planitou) immediately of any unauthorized use of a User Account, whether it belongs to an Authorized User or an Account Administrator, and of any incident affecting password confidentiality, difficulty accessing a User Account, or any change of account information for which the Authorized User or Account Administrator is not responsible. Swimo (Planitou) reserves the right to require any Authorized User or Account Administrator to change their password.

10. Limited use license

Subject to the terms of this Agreement, Swimo (Planitou) grants you a non-exclusive, non-assignable, non-transferable and revocable license to use the Swimo (Planitou) solutions for the duration of this Agreement only.

11.1. Service hosting

Subject to the terms of this Agreement, Swimo (Planitou) grants you a non-exclusive right to access the hosted Swimo (Planitou) solutions and use them for the duration of this Agreement.

11.2. Your Data

You retain all rights, titles and interests to your Data in the format in which you transmit it to Swimo (Planitou). Subject to this Agreement, you grant Swimo (Planitou), worldwide, a non-exclusive, royalty-free right to (a) collect, use, copy, back up, transmit, modify and create derivative works from that Data, in each case only as necessary to design, use, develop, improve, deploy and maintain the Swimo (Planitou) solutions, and (b) for Swimo (Planitou) solutions that allow Subscribers, Account Administrators or Authorized Users to share Data or interact with other people, to distribute via, and display, the Data on the Swimo (Planitou) solutions.

11.3. Personal Information

Where the Data includes Personal Information, its Processing is subject to our Privacy Policy, but only to the extent provided therein.

With respect to Personal Information about its Authorized Users and Account Administrators, the Subscriber remains fully responsible for its compliance with any obligation of the Controller under the personal-information protection laws applicable to it. By accepting this Agreement, Swimo (Planitou) presumes that you comply with those obligations.

Swimo (Planitou) may notify you when, in its opinion, one of your instructions breaches personal-information protection laws, without obligation to consult a lawyer or attorney. This notice does not constitute legal advice. You may subsequently, at your discretion, obtain such advice from a lawyer whose practice is recognized in your jurisdiction. If a request from legitimate authorities to disclose Personal Information is not legally binding, Swimo (Planitou) will refuse it. If binding, Swimo (Planitou) will notify you.

The Subscriber is responsible, in particular, for establishing its own Privacy Policy, obtaining consent from Authorized Users of its Organization and responding to their requests to exercise rights over their Personal Information. Swimo (Planitou) will use commercially reasonable means to provide tools to help you comply with the personal-information protection laws applicable to you and information to prove that compliance. This obligation is limited to your use of the Swimo (Planitou) solutions.

Before adding photos to participant, parent and/or employee files, Authorized Users may be notified of their rights via a pop-up and can obtain more details as needed. You remain responsible for obtaining the express consent of any parent, guardian or Authorized User for the use of their personal information under the applicable law in the jurisdiction where they are located. By accepting this Agreement, you acknowledge that Swimo (Planitou) may presume that your Organization has obtained the necessary consents in this regard.

By accepting this Agreement, you designate Swimo (Planitou) as your Processor and authorize it to carry out the Processing necessary on the Personal Information of your Authorized Users in order to achieve the purposes identified in this Agreement and in the Privacy Policy. Swimo (Planitou) agrees to carry out such Processing only for those purposes. Swimo (Planitou) maintains all documentation proving its compliance, including a register of Processing operations and a register of confidentiality incidents. For clarity, Swimo (Planitou) does not use the Personal Information of your Authorized Users for commercial prospecting or advertising.

On request, Swimo (Planitou) offers its Subscribers the ability to securely return, transfer or delete the Personal Information they transmit. Deletion requests are immediately forwarded to Swimo (Planitou)’s Subcontractors for processing. However, when an Authorized User becomes a member of several Organizations, certain identification information tied to their registration such as their User Account and contact details may be retained by another Organization.

Swimo (Planitou) will not enter into any contract or commitment contrary to this article. For transparency, Swimo (Planitou) publishes the list of all its third-party service providers and will notify all Subscribers when that list changes. The Privacy Policy also provides information on the countries in which Swimo (Planitou) may disclose Personal Information and the protection measures in place to preserve confidentiality.

11.4. Security

Swimo (Planitou) implements administrative and technological security measures to preserve the confidentiality, availability and integrity of your Data and reduce risks from threats and cyberattacks.

However, you understand that using hosted services necessarily involves transmitting your Data over networks not owned, operated or controlled by us, and we are not responsible for any of your Data lost, altered, intercepted or stored on those networks. We cannot guarantee that Data transmissions will always be secure or that unauthorized third parties will never be able to defeat our security measures or those of our third-party service providers.

Please note that Swimo (Planitou) maintains cyber-security insurance of at least CAD $1,000,000 for any claim that could arise from a data-security event.

For more information on our measures, see our Security page.

11.5. Storage limitation

Storage limits may be imposed or changed by Swimo (Planitou) without notice, while preserving the essential features of the Solutions.

11.6. Data responsibility

You must ensure that your use of the Swimo (Planitou) solutions and your Data comply at all times with our Acceptable Use Policy and any laws applicable in your jurisdiction.

Except as expressly provided herein, Swimo (Planitou) assumes no responsibility for your Data, and you are solely responsible for its transmission, use and back-up copies as needed.

11.7. Service suspension

Swimo (Planitou) has no obligation to monitor content uploaded to the Swimo (Planitou) solutions. However, if we consider it necessary due to a breach of this Agreement or in response to a request received regarding third-party intellectual property rights, or for content violating our policy, we may take any action permitted by the Acceptable Use Policy, including suspending your account. You will continue to be billed for the hosted service during the suspension. We assume no liability to you for the deletion of your Data or for suspending your access to hosted services in order to comply with that policy or this Agreement.

12. Support and maintenance

Swimo (Planitou) will provide support and maintenance services for the Swimo (Planitou) solutions during the term of this Agreement.

We will bear all costs we incur for the audit, unless it reveals that you exceeded the scope of use or otherwise breached your obligations. You must provide reasonable assistance, cooperation and access to relevant information as part of an audit at your own cost. We may bill you for any past or ongoing excessive use, and you must pay the invoice immediately upon receipt. This remedy is without prejudice to any other remedy available to Swimo (Planitou) under this Agreement or by law. To the extent we are required to do so, we may share the audit results with certain of our Subcontractors or assign to them the audit rights mentioned in this article.

16. Ownership and feedback

The Swimo (Planitou) solutions are made available and limited by a restricted license or basic access; no ownership right is transferred to you, regardless of the use of terms such as “purchase” or “sale”. Swimo (Planitou) and its subcontractors have and retain all rights, titles and interests, including all intellectual property rights, in and to the Swimo (Planitou) solutions (including the Free Swimo (Planitou) solutions), their overall appearance, any related application or underlying technology, and any modification or derivative work created by or for Swimo (Planitou).

From time to time, you may choose to submit observations, information, questions, data, ideas, process descriptions or other information to Swimo (Planitou), including as part of support (the “Feedback”). Swimo (Planitou) may, as part of any of its Swimo (Planitou) solutions, freely use, copy, disclose and exploit any Feedback in any manner, without obligation, royalty or restriction based on intellectual property or other rights. Improvements to the Swimo (Planitou) solutions incorporating or implementing Feedback remain the exclusive property of Swimo (Planitou).

17. Assignment, transfer and Commercial Transaction

Active subscriptions, customer accounts and all rights, obligations and receivables arising from them constitute business assets of Swimo (Planitou). Swimo (Planitou) may, without prior Subscriber consent, assign, transfer, dispose of or otherwise deal with, in whole or in part, subscriptions, customer accounts and these terms, as part of a Commercial Transaction.

For the purposes hereof, a “Commercial Transaction” includes, without limitation: (i) the sale, assignment, lease or transfer of all or part of the business or its assets; (ii) a merger, reorganization, consolidation or any other change in the legal structure of Swimo (Planitou); (iii) a change of control, direct or indirect; (iv) obtaining financing, granting security, or any other operation intended to guarantee an obligation of Swimo (Planitou).

As part of a Commercial Transaction, any acquirer, assignee or successor may be substituted by operation of law for Swimo (Planitou) as a party to these terms and will assume the rights and obligations relating to the transferred subscriptions, without material interruption of services. Swimo (Planitou) may also disclose and transmit, to the extent necessary, information relating to subscriptions and customers to third parties involved in a Commercial Transaction (including potential buyers, investors, lenders and their advisors), for due-diligence purposes, subject to applicable laws, including personal-information protection laws.

18. Confidentiality

The source code of the Swimo (Planitou) solutions, performance or operation reports of the Swimo (Planitou) solutions, and the documents and know-how associated with the Swimo (Planitou) solutions constitute confidential information of Swimo (Planitou). Data entered by the Subscriber and its Authorized Users is confidential information of the Subscriber. The parties agree that they may exchange this confidential information, the receiving party being the “recipient” for the following purposes.

Except as expressly authorized herein, a party shall keep confidential and shall not use or disclose the other party’s confidential information. The non-disclosure obligation does not apply to information that the recipient can document: (a) was lawfully in its possession or known to it before receiving the confidential information; (b) is or has become publicly known through no fault of the recipient; (c) is rightfully obtained by the recipient from a third party without breach of any confidentiality obligation; or (d) is independently developed by employees of the recipient who did not have access to such information.

The recipient may also disclose confidential information if necessary pursuant to a regulation, law or court order (but only to the extent required to comply with the regulation or order and with prior notice to the disclosing party). The recipient acknowledges that disclosure of confidential information would cause substantial harm for which damages alone would not be a sufficient remedy, and therefore the disclosing party is entitled to seek an injunction in addition to any other legal remedy.

For clarity, Swimo (Planitou) may need to provide confidential information to a public authority to comply with an applicable law. If a public authority requires Swimo (Planitou) to provide confidential information or other information relating to a Subscriber, Swimo (Planitou) may presume that binding requests from public authorities are well founded and will have no obligation to verify whether they are authorized by applicable laws or regulations.

19. Term and termination
