Access is strictly limited:
Your conversations with AI Coach are private. The specialist guiding you cannot see them.
For corporate clients: the employer receives only aggregate statistics on participation and usage. They have no access to your weight, your food journal or any individual health indicator.
Data is stored on servers located in the European Union. Where a service provider processes data outside the European Economic Area, the transfer takes place only on the basis of an adequacy decision of the European Commission or of the standard contractual clauses approved by it.
FicoFit uses artificial intelligence models to generate meal plans and to power the conversational assistant. The data sent is limited to what is strictly necessary and is not used by the technology provider to train models.
Automatically generated recommendations are indicative. They do not constitute a diagnosis and do not replace medical advice.
Under the GDPR you have the following rights:
You can exercise your rights by writing to contact@ficofit.com. We reply within 30 days at the latest.
If you are dissatisfied, you may contact the Romanian National Supervisory Authority for Personal Data Processing (ANSPDCP), B-dul G-ral. Gheorghe Magheru no. 28–30, Bucharest, dataprotection.ro.
We apply appropriate technical and organisational measures: encryption of data in transit and at rest, role-based access control, access logging, regular backups and staff training. No measure offers absolute certainty, but we undertake to notify you of any incident likely to affect your rights, within the time limits set by law.
FicoFit services are intended solely for people over 18. We do not knowingly collect data from minors. If you become aware that a minor has provided us with data, contact us so we can delete it.
We may update this policy. The version in force is published on the site, with the date of the last update. Substantial changes are communicated to you by email.
In short: by using FicoFit you accept this contract. Displayed prices are final, VAT included. You can cancel your subscription at any time from your account, effective at the end of the period already paid. You have a 14-day right of withdrawal, with one exception explained in Art. 8. FicoFit provides lifestyle guidance and does not replace medical advice.
Use of the platform and the purchase of services available on ficofit.com are governed by these Terms and conditions and by the documents they refer to. Please read them before creating an account or placing an order.
FicoFit services are provided by AREALUX CONCEPT S.R.L., registered office in Ploiești, Aleea Zarandului no. 5, Prahova county, Romania, registered with the Trade Register under no. J29/603/2021, company number 43851086, VAT number RO43851086, email contact@ficofit.com, phone +40 750 420 575 — referred to below as "FicoFit", "we" or "the Provider".
The Beneficiary is the natural or legal person who creates an account, accesses the platform or purchases a service — referred to below as "you", "the Beneficiary" or "the User".
By creating an account, purchasing a service or using the platform you accept these terms in full.
FicoFit is a nutrition and progress-tracking platform, comprising:
The exact content of each service is described on its presentation page at the time of purchase.
FicoFit provides guidance on lifestyle, nutrition and physical activity. Our services do not constitute a medical act and do not replace consultation, diagnosis or treatment provided by a doctor.
Recommendations are not intended to diagnose, treat, cure or prevent any disease. Before starting any programme, consult your doctor, in particular if you are on treatment, have a chronic condition, are pregnant or breastfeeding.
If unusual symptoms appear during the programme, stop it and see a doctor.
The contract is concluded at a distance, by electronic means, without the simultaneous physical presence of the parties and without a handwritten or electronic signature, at the moment when:
The contract is concluded in Romanian and kept in electronic form. You may request a copy at any time at contact@ficofit.com.
To use the platform you must be at least 18 years old and provide accurate and complete information. You are responsible for keeping your login details confidential and for activity carried out through your account. Access is strictly personal and may not be transferred to another person.
The accuracy of your plan depends directly on the accuracy of the data you enter.
App subscriptions have firm prices, displayed on the site in euro, VAT included. The price you see before payment is the final price; nothing is added at checkout.
Subscriptions renew automatically at the end of each period, at the same price, until you cancel. We email you before the first charge following the trial period and before each annual renewal.
Payments are processed by Stripe Payments Europe Ltd. We do not store your card details on our servers. You can turn off automatic renewal at any time from your account.
The trial period is 3 days for new subscriptions. Your card is registered at sign-up, but no payment is taken during these days. If you cancel before the end of the third day, nothing is charged.
Expert Mentorship programmes are priced individually, at the initial consultation, which is free. The price depends on the duration of the programme and what it includes, and is paid in full or in monthly instalments, as agreed in writing.
We issue an invoice for every payment and send it by email. You are responsible for the accuracy of the billing details you provide.
Prices may change. A price change does not affect a period already paid for and is communicated to you at least 30 days before it applies. If you disagree, you may cancel before the new price takes effect.
FicoFit services are digital and involve no physical delivery. Access is activated immediately after payment is confirmed or, in the case of the trial period, immediately after the account is created.
To use the platform you need a device with internet access and an up-to-date browser. We do not ask you to install additional software.
We cannot guarantee uninterrupted operation of the platform, as it also depends on your connection and on third-party providers. We make reasonable efforts to keep the service available and to give advance notice of planned interruptions.
As a consumer, you have the right to withdraw from the contract within 14 calendar days, without giving any reason, under Romanian Government Emergency Ordinance no. 34/2014.
The full rules, how to exercise this right and the withdrawal form are set out in the Returns & right of withdrawal section.
The exception that concerns you directly. For digital content supplied immediately, the right of withdrawal is lost if you expressly requested that performance begin and confirmed that you understand this. At FicoFit this consent is given through a separate tick box when you create your account — it is not included in the general acceptance of these terms.
If you do not give that consent, the full 14 days apply and access is activated after they expire.
Beneficiaries acting as traders (legal persons, sole traders, purchases for professional purposes) do not benefit from the right of withdrawal, under the same ordinance.
You can cancel your subscription at any time, from your account, without calling anyone or sending emails. Cancellation takes effect at the end of the period you have already paid for, and access remains until then.
If you cancel during the trial period, no payment is taken.
Expert Mentorship programmes run for the contracted duration and are subject to the conditions agreed at enrolment.
The rules below apply in addition to the right of withdrawal described in Art. 8, not instead of it.
Trial period. No payment is taken during the first 3 days, so there is nothing to refund. You simply cancel.
Monthly subscription. If you cancel after being charged, access remains until the end of the month paid for and is not refunded pro rata — the service was at your disposal throughout the period. This does not apply where you did not give express consent for performance to begin immediately; in that case the right of withdrawal under Art. 8 applies.
Annual subscription. If you cancel within the first 14 days of payment, we refund the amount paid, less the value of the days during which you used the service. After those 14 days, access remains until the end of the year paid for, without refund.
Duplicate or erroneous payments. We refund these in full, as soon as we identify them or you report them.
Service interruptions. If the platform was unavailable for more than 72 consecutive hours through our fault, you may request a pro-rata refund for the affected period.
Refund requests are sent to contact@ficofit.com and receive a reply within 5 working days at the latest. The approved amount is returned using the same payment method used originally, within 5–10 working days depending on your bank, with no additional charge on our side.
We do not refund for lack of results. The service provides plans, monitoring and guidance; results depend on following the programme and on individual factors, and this is stated plainly in Art. 3.
We may cancel or reschedule a live session within a mentorship programme where the situation requires it. In that case we propose an alternative date or, at your choice, a refund of the part not performed.
You undertake not to:
In programmes with a community component, you undertake to keep your language civil. Offensive or aggressive messages may be removed, and access to the community may be suspended.
If you send us a testimonial, a progress photograph or a recording and give your explicit consent to their publication, we may use them in our promotional materials — on the site, in the app or on social media.
Consent is given separately, through a tick box distinct from the acceptance of these terms, and is optional. Refusing it does not affect in any way the service you receive.
You choose what is published: full name, first name only, initials or anonymous.
You may withdraw your consent at any time, by email to contact@ficofit.com, without giving reasons. Within 30 days at the latest we remove the materials from the channels we control.
For materials already distributed beyond our control — a post shared by someone else, print material already produced — we make reasonable efforts but cannot guarantee complete removal. We tell you this before you tick the box, not after.
Progress photographs uploaded in the app are never published on the basis of a general consent; each photograph requires separate consent. They are health data and are treated in accordance with the Privacy policy.
The FicoFit name, the logo, the platform content, the recipes, the generated plans, the texts, graphics and video belong to AREALUX CONCEPT S.R.L. or to the authors we have contracted, and are protected by copyright legislation.
Your subscription gives you a personal, non-exclusive and non-transferable right to use the materials for your own purposes, for the duration of the subscription. You acquire no ownership rights over them.
The meal plans generated for you may be used freely for personal purposes, including after the subscription ends. You may not, however, publish, distribute or commercialise them.
We are liable for direct damage caused through our fault, up to the amounts you paid in the last 12 months.
We are not liable for:
Nothing in this article limits our liability in situations where the law does not permit limitation, including in cases of wilful misconduct or gross negligence.
We may suspend or close the account, with prior notice where possible, if:
Where access is suspended for a serious breach of your obligations, the amount paid for the remaining period is not refunded.
The contract ends by cancellation of the subscription, by exercise of the right of withdrawal, by agreement of the parties, by deletion of the account, or by termination for breach of obligations not remedied within 15 days of notice.
After termination, access to the platform is deactivated and your data is handled in accordance with the Privacy policy.
Neither party is liable for failure to perform where this is due to an event of force majeure. The affected party notifies the other within 5 days. If the event lasts more than 30 days, either party may declare the contract terminated, without damages.
We try to resolve any disagreement amicably. Write to contact@ficofit.com and we reply within 5 working days at the latest.
If we do not reach a solution, as a consumer you may turn to:
Disputes with beneficiaries acting as traders are settled by the competent courts at the Provider's registered office.
Communications between the parties take place by email or in writing. This contract is governed by Romanian law.
We may amend these terms. The updated version is published on this page, with the date of the last update. Changes that disadvantage you are communicated at least 30 days before they apply, and continued use of the platform after that date constitutes acceptance.
If a clause of this contract is declared void, the remainder stay in force.
In the event of a conflict between this document and an individual contract concluded with you for a mentorship programme, the individual contract prevails.
This English text is a courtesy translation. In the event of any discrepancy with the Romanian version, the Romanian version prevails.
In short: you have 14 days in which you may withdraw from the contract without giving reasons. For digital services activated immediately with your express consent, the right is lost — but that consent is requested separately, through a tick box you can decline. During the trial period no payment is taken, so there is nothing to recover.
This policy applies to beneficiaries who are consumers, under Romanian Government Emergency Ordinance no. 34/2014 on consumer rights in distance contracts.
The right of withdrawal belongs to natural persons purchasing services outside their commercial or professional activity.
Legal persons, sole traders and persons purchasing for professional purposes do not benefit from this right, under the same ordinance.
You have the right to withdraw from the contract, without giving reasons, within 14 calendar days of the conclusion of the contract — that is, from the date you received the order confirmation by email.
To meet the deadline it is sufficient that you send your communication before the 14 days expire.
Under Art. 16(m) of Ordinance 34/2014, the right of withdrawal does not apply to the supply of digital content not delivered on a tangible medium, where performance has begun with the consumer's prior express consent and with their acknowledgement that they thereby lose the right of withdrawal.
How we apply this at FicoFit. When you create your account we ask for your consent to begin performance immediately, through a separate tick box, distinct from acceptance of the terms. The box is optional and you may decline it.
If you tick it: access is activated immediately and the right of withdrawal is lost from that moment.
If you do not tick it: you keep your right of withdrawal for the full 14 days, and access is activated after they expire.
The 3-day trial period involves no payment, so no refund arises during that interval — cancelling is enough.
Send us an unequivocal statement by any of the following means:
You may use the form below, but you are not obliged to. Any clear statement showing your intention to withdraw is valid.
We confirm receipt of your request by email, without delay.
If you requested that performance begin within the 14 days and then withdraw, you owe the value of the services provided up to the moment of withdrawal, in proportion to the period used.
Complete and send this form only if you wish to withdraw from the contract.
