Payment is processed exclusively by credit or debit card through the secure Stripe platform. No payment data is stored or accessed by Simplywoodplan; only Stripe processes and retains such data in compliance with PCI-DSS standards.

A compliant invoice is issued for each payment and made available to the User by e-mail or through the customer portal. If the User does not receive the invoice automatically, they may request it at any time at simplywoodplan@gmail.com.

ARTICLE 5 — SUBSCRIPTION AND ACCESS

Subscription is initiated from https://www.simplywoodplan.com according to the following process: selection of the subscription plan, entry of the User's e-mail address and payment information, express acceptance of these Terms, and — for consumer Users (non-professionals) — express acknowledgment of the waiver of the right of withdrawal as described in Article 7. Payment validation completes the subscription.

Access to the service is delivered immediately upon payment confirmation, by sending a connection link to the User's e-mail address. Authentication is performed via magic link or single-use code (PIN).

The User undertakes to provide a valid e-mail address and to keep their access credentials confidential. Any use of the account is deemed to have been performed by the account holder.

ARTICLE 6 — DURATION, RENEWAL, AND TERMINATION

The subscription is entered into for a monthly term, tacitly renewed at each due date, in accordance with Article L215-1 of the French Consumer Code.

The User may terminate their subscription at any time, free of charge and without justification, through the Stripe customer portal accessible via the "Manage my subscription" link on the website.

Termination takes effect at the end of the current monthly period. The User retains access to the service until the end of the monthly cycle already paid for. No new charge is processed after termination, and no refund of the unused portion of the current month is owed.

The Publisher reserves the right to suspend or terminate any User account in the event of a material breach of these Terms, including but not limited to fraudulent use, attempts to circumvent technical limitations, or infringement of intellectual property rights. Such suspension or termination may occur without prior notice and without refund.

ARTICLE 7 — RIGHT OF WITHDRAWAL AND EXPRESS WAIVER

For Users qualifying as consumers under French consumer law (individual non-professional Users), a fourteen (14) day right of withdrawal applies in principle from the date of subscription, pursuant to Article L221-18 of the French Consumer Code.

However, by checking the dedicated box during the subscription process, the User qualifying as a consumer expressly acknowledges: their request for immediate execution of the service starting from payment confirmation; their express waiver of the right of withdrawal in accordance with Article L221-28-1° of the French Consumer Code; and their understanding that, upon full and immediate execution of the service, no withdrawal can subsequently be exercised.

This express waiver is retained by the Publisher as evidence of the User's consent.

ARTICLE 8 — INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY

All elements composing the Simplywoodplan service — application, calculation engine, models, interface, texts, images, visual identity, algorithms — are the exclusive property of Michel Guiot and are protected under the French Intellectual Property Code and international copyright treaties.

Any reproduction, representation, modification, publication, transmission, or alteration, in whole or in part, of the service or any of its components, by any means whatsoever, is strictly prohibited without the prior written authorization of the Publisher.

PDF plans generated by the User in the context of their subscription may be freely used by the User for personal or professional purposes (construction of the corresponding structures, presentation to clients, archiving). However, their resale, commercial distribution, or integration into any competing service is strictly prohibited.

The User undertakes not to attempt to extract, copy, or reproduce the calculation engine, standard cross-sections, design tables, or any other structuring technical data of the service.

ARTICLE 9 — LIMITATION OF LIABILITY

The structural calculations integrated into Simplywoodplan comply with Eurocode 5 (EN 1995) and have been validated by an independent wood structural engineering firm.

However, Simplywoodplan does not substitute for a project-specific structural study performed by a qualified professional on site. The User acknowledges that the generated PDF plan is a design-assistance document, and that final implementation — including verification of actual site conditions (timber quality, anchoring, soil conditions, local climatic loads, surroundings) — remains under the User's sole responsibility.

The Publisher shall not be held liable for direct or indirect damages resulting from: implementation that does not comply with industry standards and good practice; misinterpretation of the plan provided; failure to obtain required administrative authorizations (building permits, prior declarations of works, local zoning rules); or use of the plan in a context not anticipated by the service (non-standard seismic zone, exceptional snow loads not entered, etc.).

The Publisher shall not be held liable for temporary service interruptions related to maintenance operations, failures of third-party services (Glide, Stripe), or events of force majeure.

In any event, the Publisher's liability, if engaged, shall be limited to the total amount actually paid by the User during the twelve (12) months preceding the event giving rise to the damage.

ARTICLE 10 — PERSONAL DATA

The processing of the User's personal data is governed by the Privacy Policy, accessible on the website and forming an integral part of these Terms.

In accordance with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and the French Data Protection Act, the User has the right to access, rectify, erase, port, and object to the processing of their personal data, which they may exercise at any time by writing to simplywoodplan@gmail.com.

ARTICLE 11 — CUSTOMER SERVICE AND COMPLAINTS

Any complaint, support request, or question regarding the service may be sent by e-mail to: simplywoodplan@gmail.com

The Publisher undertakes to respond within a reasonable timeframe, and no later than seven (7) business days following receipt of the request.

For Users qualifying as consumers, in accordance with Articles L611-1 et seq. of the French Consumer Code, in the event of a dispute that has not been resolved directly with the Publisher, the User may submit the dispute, free of charge, to the following consumer mediation service:

Médiation de la Consommation & Patrimoine (MCP Médiation)

12 Square Desnouettes — 75015 Paris, France

Business registration: RCS 840 463 129

E-mail: contact@mcpmediation.org

The User may also file a complaint via the European Online Dispute Resolution platform: https://ec.europa.eu/consumers/odr

ARTICLE 12 — GOVERNING LAW AND JURISDICTION

These Terms are governed by French law.

In the event of a dispute, and following an attempted amicable resolution, the competent court shall be the court of the defendant's domicile for Users qualifying as consumers, and the court within the jurisdiction of the Publisher's place of business (Coutances Court, France) for Users qualifying as professionals.

Users located outside of France acknowledge and accept that French law governs this contract and that French courts retain jurisdiction in accordance with the rules set forth above, subject to any mandatory consumer protection provisions of their country of residence.
