1. The service and who provides it. FocusSea is a personal productivity app for tracking study and work sessions, exams, goals, weekly plans and statistics, and for running coworking sessions over video ("Service"). The Service is provided by Daniele Cattaneo, contact [email protected]. By creating an account or using the Service you accept these Terms and the Privacy Policy. Single point of contact for users and authorities under artt. 11 and 12 of Regulation (EU) 2022/2065 (DSA): [email protected], in Italian or English.
2. Eligibility. The Service is reserved for people aged 18 or over. By registering you declare that you are at least 18. To access coworking you are asked once for your birth year as confirmation. If we learn that an account belongs to a minor, we close it.
3. Account. Access is via a link sent by email or via a Google account. You are responsible for the security of your email inbox and for activity carried out through your account. Tell us promptly about any unauthorised use by writing to [email protected].
4. Price and right of withdrawal. The Service is free: there is no paid plan, no payment details are requested and no amount is charged. If we introduce a paid plan in future, prices, duration, renewal and cancellation terms will be shown clearly before any purchase, and no charge can occur without your express consent; in that case, as a consumer you will have the right to withdraw within 14 days under Articles 52 ff. of the Italian Consumer Code, unless you expressly request immediate performance and acknowledge losing the right of withdrawal once performance is complete.
5. Coworking: how it works and rules of conduct. Coworking matches you on a video call with another real person for a timed session. If nobody joins within 75 seconds, the app tells you and the choice is yours: keep waiting for someone to arrive, or start a session on your own right away, with no video call. In that case nothing starts in your place. It is different once a session has begun and something interrupts it — the partner cancels or does not show up, or the video call fails: there the session continues with a virtual companion, that is an illustrated character, and the app says so clearly — it is not a real person and not another user. By using coworking you agree to: behave respectfully; not engage in harassing, discriminatory, sexually explicit, violent or otherwise inappropriate conduct; not display unlawful or unsuitable content; not record, film, photograph or distribute in any way the video call or the other person's image or voice; not use coworking for commercial, promotional or solicitation purposes. Breaking these rules may result in limitation, suspension or closure of access, in addition to any consequences provided by law.
6. Reports, suspension and closure. You can report a session from the app. Every report is reviewed by a person and has no automatic effect. We may limit, suspend or close access to coworking or to the whole account in the event of a breach of these Terms, a risk to the safety of other users or of the Service, or a legal obligation. Unless impossible or prohibited by law, we will tell you about the measure and the reason, and you may challenge it by writing to [email protected]: challenges are reviewed by a different person where possible. Temporary, non-punitive automatic limits may also apply, such as putting future bookings on hold after sessions in which the partner did not show up: these are operational measures, liftable by the user or expiring at the time stated in the app.
7. Acceptable use. You agree not to: use the Service unlawfully or in breach of others' rights; attempt to access other users' data; interfere with the operation, security or infrastructure of the Service; use automated tools to overload it, extract data in bulk or circumvent its limits; resell, sublicense or claim ownership of the Service.
8. Your content. The data you enter remains yours. You grant us only the technical, non-exclusive, royalty-free rights needed to host, store, back up and sync it in order to provide the Service; no other use. You can export your data at any time from Settings → Data and delete it from Settings → Danger zone.
9. Intellectual property. The Service, its name, interface, texts, graphics and illustrated characters are protected by copyright and remain owned by the provider of the Service or its licensors. The ambient sounds come from sources licensed for such use. Nothing in these Terms transfers rights in that content to you beyond personal use of the Service.
10. No professional advice. The Service's calculation features — averages, graduation base, grade simulators, foreign grade conversions, required study pace, planners — are personal support tools based on general formulas. They are not an official document nor academic, legal, medical, psychological or financial advice. The rules of your university or employer always prevail: check the results against official sources before making decisions. The Service is not a diagnostic or therapeutic tool and in no way replaces a professional's opinion, including where it discusses focus, productivity or attention.
11. Availability, "as is". The Service is provided, in its free part, "as is" and "as available", without warranty of continuous availability, freedom from errors, accuracy of computed statistics or fitness for a particular purpose. We may modify, suspend or discontinue the Service or parts of it at any time; where reasonably possible we will give advance notice so you can export your data. We do not guarantee that another real person will show up in any given coworking session.
12. Conduct of other users. Coworking connects people we do not know and do not vet beyond the declaration of age. We are not responsible for other users' behaviour during sessions. We encourage you not to share personal information, to leave the call at any moment if you feel uncomfortable, and to use the report feature. In case of serious conduct, also contact the competent authorities.
13. Limitation of liability. To the maximum extent permitted by law, we are not liable for indirect or consequential damages, loss of data due to events beyond our reasonable control, or damages arising from misuse of the Service or from the conduct of other users. Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits liability for wilful misconduct or gross negligence, for personal injury, or any liability that cannot be excluded by law. Mandatory consumer rights remain unaffected.
14. Changes to the Terms. We may amend these Terms. Material changes will be announced in the app with reasonable notice and the date at the top will be updated. If you do not accept the changes you can stop using the Service and close your account; changes apply only to use after they take effect.
15. Governing law, jurisdiction and dispute resolution. These Terms are governed by Italian law, provided that this choice does not deprive a consumer resident in another European Union country of the protection of the mandatory rules of their own country. For any dispute with a consumer, the courts of the consumer's place of residence or domicile have jurisdiction; otherwise, the Court of Milan. Before going to court you can contact us at [email protected] for an amicable solution, and you may turn to the alternative dispute resolution bodies available under your legal system.
