Terms of Use
The BeFaster.fit website, mobile app, staking platform, and related services (together, the “Services”) are provided under these Terms of Use (the “Terms”), including our Acceptable Use Policy and Privacy Policy, which are incorporated by reference. More information about the Services is available at https://befaster.fit. The Services are operated by BeFaster.fit Limited, a company registered in Malta.

By accessing or using the Services – including downloading content, creating an account, clicking “Register,” or using any similar function – you agree to be bound by these Terms, as well as any additional terms applicable to specific features. If you do not agree, please do not use the Services.

BeFaster.fit may monitor user accounts and activity as necessary to ensure compliance with these Terms and to maintain the security and integrity of the Services.

This agreement is written in English. In case of any conflict between a translated version and the English version, the English version prevails.

If you use the Services on behalf of a company or other legal entity (e.g., as a BePartner), you represent and warrant that you have authority to bind that entity and its affiliates to these Terms. Without such authority, you may not use the Services on their behalf.

These Terms include important disclaimers and limitations of liability that apply to your use of the Services.

E-Mail Communication

We will never bother you with unnecessary or promotional emails. We will contact you by email exclusively when it is necessary to inform you, about significant changes to BeFaster.fit features, new offerings and opportunities, our service changes, the BeFaster.fit protocol, or resulting updates to the terms of use.

Dispute Resolution Notice:
These Terms include provisions on governing law and jurisdiction that differ depending on whether you reside within the European Union. For full details, including your rights as a consumer, please refer to the section titled “Governing Law and Jurisdiction.”

2. REGISTRATION AND ACCOUNTS

The Services are available only to individuals aged 18 or older. BeFaster.fit also allows legal entities, such as businesses, public institutions, clubs, associations, foundations, and similar organizations, to create an account and register for use of the Services. The same Terms of Use apply to these organizations, subject to additional requirements specific to legal entities.

To use the Services, you must register via your Google account linked to your Android device. By doing so, you authorize BeFaster.fit to import relevant data as permitted by Google’s Privacy Policy, and you agree to comply with Google’s terms. You also agree to comply with any applicable terms and policies of such third-party services.

You agree to:
(a) provide accurate, current, and complete information (“User Data”), and
(b) promptly update your User Data as needed.
BeFaster.fit may use your User Data in accordance with these Terms and our Privacy Policy.

Personal accounts are for individual use only. Business-related use requires a business account. Business accounts may grant access to authorized third parties. BeFaster.fit reserves the right to suspend or delete accounts that contain inaccurate or outdated information, or where multiple accounts are created in violation of these Terms.

You further represent that no legal restrictions prevent you from using the Services.

Access to many features requires linking a hot wallet. You may connect up to three hot wallets for flexible access.

You are solely responsible for securing your passwords, devices, and account. Notify BeFaster.fit immediately of unauthorized access. BeFaster.fit does not have access to your Google or wallet credentials; lost credentials cannot be recovered.

The simultaneous use of multiple accounts by the same person, on the same device, or using the same payment information is prohibited. Likewise, cloning accounts or any other methods to circumvent this rule are forbidden. BeFaster.fit reserves the right to suspend or delete any affected accounts.

Some Services may integrate with third-party APIs. By using these features, you acknowledge that the terms and privacy policies of those third parties also apply to you.

3. AUTHENTICITY OF USERS AND ATHLETIC PERFORMANCE

You represent and warrant that:
(i) you are the sole lawful owner of your BeFaster.fit account and have created it either in your own name or on behalf of an authorized organization;
(ii) you are the actual individual using the BeFaster.fit app and to whom the account is registered;
(iii) the content and athletic performance data you provide are genuine, and do not infringe upon the rights of any third parties, including, but not limited to – rights of personality, copyrights, or trademark rights; and
(iv) all activities and results recorded in the app are your own, free from any form of fraud, manipulation or deception.               (v) you are solely responsible for any damages or losses caused by violations of these representations and warranties. BeFaster.fit reserves the right to investigate any suspected breaches and to take appropriate actions, including suspending or terminating your account, and seeking compensation for damages incurred.

Should BeFaster.fit detect fraudulent actions or violations of these representations, you agree that we have the right to flag your account and, where appropriate, suspend or terminate it.

4. PROMOTIONAL AND DISCOUNT CODES:
   BeFaster.fit may, at its discretion, provide users with promotional or discount codes as part of time-limited campaigns. These codes may be subject to specific conditions (e.g. duration, feature scope, target user groups) and are non-transferable, cannot be combined with other offers, and are not redeemable for cash. There is no legal entitlement to the issuance or redemption of any such code. BeFaster.fit reserves the right to end or modify promotional campaigns at any time or to deactivate individual codes in cases of suspected abuse, manipulation, or unauthorized distribution.

BeFaster.fit also reserves the right to publish exclusive codes from time to time via its official social media channels. Following these channels may therefore be beneficial for interested users. These codes are typically valid for a limited time and subject to the above conditions. There is no entitlement to publication, extension, or repeated availability of individual codes or promotions.

Note:
The use of promotional or discount codes is entirely optional. The BeFaster.fit app remains fully functional without redeeming such codes. Promotions serve solely to encourage user engagement and to voluntarily reward certain activities or user groups.

5. USER INTERACTION & ELECTRONIC COMMUNICATION

BeFaster.fit encourages athletic competition and user interaction. Performance data such as challenge results, total activity, or leaderboard rankings are visible to other users to promote transparency and fair competition.

Private messages between users are not monitored or controlled by BeFaster.fit. We expect all users to behave respectfully. If you encounter inappropriate behavior or violations, you can report them through the app or by emailing support@befaster.fit.

BeFaster.fit reserves the right to take appropriate action in response to reported violations to maintain a safe and fair environment for all users.

Each user is responsible for their own conduct and must comply with community standards. BeFaster.fit does not assume any liability for user behavior.

6. INTERACTION WITH OTHER USERS

BeFaster.fit promotes a respectful and supportive community where users share their athletic achievements, challenge one another, and stay motivated. You agree to behave respectfully, fairly, and courteously in all interactions within the app and on social media, and to comply with our Acceptable Use Policy.
Harassment, discrimination, hate speech, and any other harmful behavior are strictly prohibited and may lead to immediate account suspension. Examples of prohibited conduct include offensive language, threats, and discrimination based on race, gender, religion, or other protected characteristics.
BeFaster.fit reserves the right to review all user-generated content and interactions and to take prompt action, including temporary or permanent suspension of accounts, without prior notice, in cases of repeated or severe violations of community standards.
You are responsible for maintaining sportsmanship and fair play in all engagements on the platform.

7. INTEGRATION OF WEARABLES AND THIRD-PARTY APPS (COMPANION APPS)

BeFaster.fit lets you enhance your user experience by connecting selected wearables and companion apps. When linked, your activity data is automatically transferred to our app for scoring, leaderboard rankings, and rewards. Using a wearable is optional — all core features remain fully accessible without integration. Wearables offer extra convenience, especially through automatic and continuous activity tracking.

Data transmission occurs solely via the wearable manufacturer’s companion app, as BeFaster.fit does not connect directly to wearables (e.g., via Bluetooth). We only process data that these apps provide in line with our app’s functionality. Users must synchronize their data with the companion app at least once daily, preferably at the end of each day. Only timely synchronized data from the current day will be considered for scoring and rewards; retroactive inclusion of past data is excluded.

Companion apps may sometimes provide incomplete or inaccurate data. In such cases, training sessions might not be fully recorded. BeFaster.fit assumes no liability for such gaps, does not provide retroactive compensation, and only evaluates the data actually received.

Wearable data is not stored permanently; it is deleted after processing. Evaluation follows the same rules and logic as all other BeFaster.fit features. Due to smoothing algorithms in companion apps and BeFaster.fit’s own anti-cheating checks, discrepancies may occur between data displayed on your wearable and data processed by BeFaster.fit.

Users are responsible for properly setting up and using their wearables and companion apps, including ensuring correct synchronization, GPS activation, and compliance with minimum technical requirements, which are presented and must be accepted during the connection process. BeFaster.fit accepts no liability for incomplete or incorrect data caused by improper use or failure to meet these requirements.

Using wearables and related features may require a paid subscription. Users can choose between a separate wearable subscription or a VIP package that includes wearable integration at no extra cost.

Privacy Notice:
Personal data transmitted via wearables—including activity and location data—is processed in accordance with our Privacy Policy. Users must ensure their companion app privacy settings permit BeFaster.fit to access the relevant data. BeFaster.fit only processes data legally shared by companion apps. Users should also review the privacy policies of companion app providers.

8. PAYMENTS AND FEES

BeFaster.fit offers various payment options depending on the type of transaction. These include purchases of memberships, additional features, and blockchain-based services. All payments may be subject to applicable fees and taxes.

Payment Methods and Processing

To purchase VIP packages or other paid services, you must add a valid payment method (“Payment Method”). For fiat-based payments, BeFaster.fit supports transactions via the Google Play payment system. By submitting your payment details, you authorize BeFaster.fit and the respective third-party providers (such as Google) to process, encrypt, and manage your payment data in accordance with their applicable terms and privacy policies.

BeFaster.fit does not store any payment data on its own systems.

You can manage and cancel active subscriptions or update your payment method at any time through your user profile within the BeFaster.fit app. These changes are processed via the Google Play infrastructure and reflected accordingly.

Note: Refunds for completed payments are generally excluded. Fiat-based withdrawals to bank accounts are not supported.

In case of suspected fraud, please immediately contact your payment provider and notify our support team at support@befaster.fit.

Membership Fees

Certain features and performance-related benefits require a paid VIP membership. Fees vary depending on the selected package and duration and must be paid in advance.

BeFaster.fit reserves the right to: 1 ) Adjust fees or taxes within reasonable limits and 2) Introduce new fees with prior notice.

Any such changes will take effect at the beginning of the next billing cycle. You agree to pay all applicable fees associated with your account, whether one-time or recurring.

Feature-Based Transactions

Some features may be unlocked using fiat or cryptocurrency. To enable these transactions, your BeFaster.fit account must be connected to a compatible hot wallet.

There are two main types of such transactions: 1) Stake Transactions: Direct use of fiat or cryptocurrency to access features (e.g., BeFaster.fit Challenges) and 2) Platform Fees: For certain features, a platform fee, typically 10%, is added to the stake and deducted automatically.

Minimum stake amounts, technical requirements, and applicable fees are always displayed transparently during the transaction process. Please find all information about BeFaster.fit Features here.

Blockchain and Gas Fees

Transactions processed on the blockchain are subject to network fees (gas fees). These: 1) Are set by the blockchain network, not BeFaster.fit, 2) Depend on factors such as network congestion and priority, and 3) Are displayed clearly before the transaction is confirmed.

BeFaster.fit Protocol and Staking

Staking functions involving BFHT tokens or NFTs are subject to their own specific transaction structures. These include: 1) Revenue participation models, 2) Smart contract-based reward mechanisms, and 3) Defined staking conditions.

All relevant details are transparently available on our website and shown at the time of transaction.

Privacy Notice

All payment-related data is processed in accordance with our Privacy Policy. Please also refer to the privacy policies of third-party services involved in processing your payments.

9. MEMBERSHIP AT BEFASTER.FIT

Using BeFaster.fit is generally free of charge. However, we offer optional VIP packages that provide enhanced features designed to help you maximize your athletic performance and benefit more fully from the BeFaster.fit ecosystem. VIP members enjoy exclusive functionalities, special promotions, improved financial terms, and access to premium content and rewards.

There are different VIP packages available, which vary in duration and structure.

• Short-term packages (e.g., 1-day or 2-week access) are offered as one-time purchases and are not cancellable.
• Monthly packages, on the other hand, are based on an automatically renewing subscription model, which can be canceled at any time via your Google Play account settings.

By purchasing a VIP package, you expressly agree that the digital service will be provided immediately, and you waive your statutory 14-day right of withdrawal in accordance with applicable consumer protection law. As a result, refunds are excluded, unless legally required in exceptional cases.

The pricing of VIP packages may vary depending on the selected duration and current promotional offers. The specific prices for each available option are displayed transparently within the app before purchase. Additionally, a general price reduction policy applies:

• By staking BFHT tokens, users can receive up to 50% off the regular VIP price.
• The maximum discount applies when 500 BFHT tokens are staked.
• Furthermore, holders of certain BFHT NFTs are entitled to free lifetime VIP access.

More detailed information regarding staking models and eligibility for benefits can be found in the BeFaster.fit Staking Protocol, available within the app and on our official website.

BeFaster.fit reserves the right to adjust the membership structure, features, and pricing of VIP benefits at any time. All changes will be communicated transparently and in advance.

Termination of VIP Membership

After registering and creating an account with BeFaster.fit, you may delete your account at any time. If you have an active VIP membership, you can cancel it via the BeFaster.fit app by selecting “End Membership” under Profile → Settings. If your membership was purchased through the Google Play Store, cancellation must be done through the respective store.

Cancellation takes effect at the end of the current billing period. Upon membership termination, your account will remain active with a standard free membership, and all VIP benefits will be immediately revoked. You may renew your VIP membership at any time without needing to create a new account, even if membership fees have changed.

Refund Policy

BeFaster.fit provides digital services and products that, once fully and properly delivered, are generally exempt from the right of withdrawal, provided the user has explicitly consented to this before concluding the contract.

Refunds of payments already made are only issued in the following cases:

• If the service is defective or not provided as agreed,
• If statutory information obligations have been violated,
• Or if the right of withdrawal still applies due to formal reasons (e.g., missing cancellation instructions).

In all other cases, there is no legal entitlement to a refund, especially not for fully and properly delivered digital content or services.

All payment processing is handled via third-party providers; BeFaster.fit does not store personal payment data. Changes, cancellations, or refund requests for subscriptions can be managed directly through the user profile with the respective payment providers.

10. BETA FEATURES

BeFaster.fit may offer certain features for testing or early access (“Beta Features”) as part of beta versions or early access programs. These features may not be fully supported, may contain bugs or other defects, and may require you to update your app or software.

Use of Beta Features is entirely at your own risk. BeFaster.fit provides no guarantees regarding their functionality or availability and disclaims any liability for damages arising from their use.

Feedback you provide regarding Beta Features is subject to the “Your Feedback” section of this policy. BeFaster.fit reserves the right to modify, restrict, or revoke access to Beta Features at any time without prior notice.

11. YOUR DATA OWNERSHIP AND PRIVACY AT BEFASTER.FIT

Your data is and remains your exclusive property. BeFaster.fit strictly prohibits the sale, rental, or any other form of commercial transfer of your personal data to third parties. We do not use your data to target or serve advertisements, nor do we permit advertising based on your data within or outside the app.

We use your personal data—including your running activities, training results, and profile information—solely to operate, maintain, and improve the functionality and features of the BeFaster.fit app. Your data will never be shared with third parties without your explicit, informed consent, except when legally obligated to do so.

By using our services, you can trust that your data is handled with the highest level of confidentiality and security. For detailed information on how we collect, process, and protect your data, please refer to our Privacy Policy.

12. Visibility of Performance Data in Competitive Features

BeFaster.fit is a performance-driven platform where competition and comparison are integral parts of the user experience. In the context of challenges, rankings, and performance tracking, the following information may be visible to other users within the app: 1) Your nickname, 2) your individual challenge results in case of 1 vs 1 challenge ,3) your physical performance data across selectable time periods (e.g., daily, weekly, monthly), 4) your current leaderboard rank, and 5) your win rate in challenges

This visibility is essential to ensure fairness, motivation, and transparency in all athletic competitions hosted by BeFaster.fit. The display of this data is limited strictly to in-app functions that serve these purposes.

BeFaster.fit does not publish or share any user data outside the platform. No performance data, challenge outcomes, or personal records are used for advertising, nor are they sold or transferred to third parties. Any external sharing of performance-related content (e.g., screenshots or social media posts) is solely at the user’s discretion and not initiated or controlled by BeFaster.fit. For further details on how your data is handled, please refer to our Privacy Policy.

13. USE OF PUBLICLY SHARED CONTENT FOR MARKETING PURPOSES

BeFaster.fit may use content that you voluntarily and publicly share via third-party platforms (such as Instagram, TikTok, Telegram, Meta, Linkedin or X etc.)—including screenshots of challenges, leaderboard placements, running routes, or other performance visuals related to BeFaster.fit—for marketing and promotional purposes. This includes reposting such content on our own website, social media channels, or other official communication media.

By publicly sharing BeFaster.fit-related content, you grant us a non-exclusive, royalty-free right to use, display, and repost such material to promote our platform, in accordance with the terms and conditions of the respective social media provider. This permission is based on the visibility and accessibility of the original content.

Please note that once content is shared publicly, it may be copied, reshared, or stored by third parties outside of our control, in line with the respective platform’s terms. A complete revocation or removal of such content may not be technically or legally possible after it has been shared or reposted by others.

If you prefer that your content is not used by us, we recommend refraining from publicly posting BeFaster.fit-related material or using private sharing options. Should you wish us to stop using a particular piece of content under our direct control (e.g. on our official channels), please contact us at support@befaster.fit, and we will comply to the extent reasonably and technically possible.

14. WEB3 TECHNOLOGY, CRYPTO TRANSACTIONS AND SMART CONTRACTS

BeFaster.fit integrates Web3 functionalities to provide selected app features in a decentralized, transparent, and secure way. These include blockchain-based transactions, smart contracts, NFTs, token staking, and other DeFi elements that form the basis for digital ownership, reward systems, and user-driven financial interactions. Find details information in the Terms part for BeFaster.fit Protocol and Staking Protocol.

Access to Web3 and Wallet Connection

To use Web3 features, users must connect a compatible hot wallet that meets the technical and security requirements outlined in the BeFaster.fit Protocol. Wallet connections are handled through external providers. BeFaster.fit does not store or manage users’ private keys or digital assets and disclaims any liability related to wallet access, credential loss, or third-party mismanagement. All crypto transactions facilitated via BeFaster.fit are processed externally and are irreversible by design. By connecting a wallet and performing on-chain interactions, users acknowledge full responsibility for verifying all transaction details before confirmation.

Finality of Blockchain Transactions

Transactions made using cryptocurrencies or digital assets are final and cannot be reversed once executed. This includes staking, NFT purchases, token transfers, or any other blockchain activity. Users are solely responsible for the correctness of transaction addresses, amounts, and conditions.

BeFaster.fit is not liable for: 1) losses due to transaction errors or incorrect addresses, 2) wallet-related security breaches, 3) failure of third-party wallet providers, or 4) unauthorized use of connected wallets.

Smart Contracts and Technical Risk Disclaimer

Smart contracts are self-executing programs on the blockchain and may contain bugs, vulnerabilities, or logic flaws. BeFaster.fit assumes no responsibility for technical errors, malicious code, or unintended behaviour resulting from smart contract execution. Users interact with smart contracts at their own risk and are expected to understand the implications of using decentralized protocols.

Use of DeFi Features and Token Utilities

DeFi components such as BFHT staking and NFT functionalities offer access to enhanced app features and financial benefits. However, these instruments carry market and operational risks.

Users acknowledge: 1) that the value of tokens and digital assets is highly volatile, 2) that staking rewards or VIP perks are not guaranteed, and 3) that participation in DeFi elements is entirely optional and carried out at their own discretion and responsibility.

Comprehensive details regarding staking logic, reward distribution, and gas fee structures can be found in the BeFaster.fit Protocol and the Staking Protocol.

Blockchain Data and Data Protection

Blockchain transactions are publicly visible and may include wallet addresses, token types, and timestamps. This data is technically not linked to personal identity, but it is publicly accessible and permanently recorded.

While BeFaster.fit complies with all applicable data protection regulations (including GDPR), users acknowledge that the inherent transparency of blockchain technology cannot be reversed or anonymized by BeFaster.fit after execution.

For more on data handling, please refer to our Privacy Policy.

Liability Disclaimer and Third-Party Services

BeFaster.fit does not offer custodial wallet services and is not responsible for managing, safeguarding, or recovering digital assets. All transactions take place via third-party wallet providers whose terms and security standards apply independently.

Disclaimer:  a) BeFaster.fit disclaims liability for the loss, theft, or unauthorized use of digital assets stored on external wallet platforms, b) The platform does not guarantee availability or error-free functionality of blockchain networks or connected wallet services, c) Users are solely responsible for legal compliance in their jurisdiction regarding the use of digital assets and wallet services, d)  All interactions with the blockchain or smart contracts via BeFaster.fit occur at the user’s own risk.

For full technical and legal specifications, including supported wallets and applicable third-party policies, see the BeFaster.fit Protocol section on our website.

Regulation and Compliance
The use of crypto services on BeFaster.fit is subject to the laws and regulations of the countries in which you reside. BeFaster.fit is committed to complying with all applicable legal requirements related to anti-money laundering (AML), user identification (KYC) performed by third-party hot wallet providers and/or crypto exchanges, and tax regulations. You acknowledge and accept that it is solely your responsibility to ensure compliance with all applicable laws and regulations in your jurisdiction regarding crypto transactions and digital asset trading. BeFaster.fit reserves the right to block or restrict access to crypto services in specific countries or regions where required by applicable laws or regulatory authorities. Should such changes occur, BeFaster.fit shall not be liable for any resulting losses or damages.

Changes and Updates to the Services
BeFaster.fit reserves the right to modify, expand, or discontinue the Web3 services, including associated technologies, at any time and at its sole discretion. This includes updates to smart contracts, software upgrades, and the introduction of new blockchain protocols. You agree that BeFaster.fit assumes no liability for interruptions or changes to the services. Significant changes or expansions of the Web3 services will be communicated via updates to the Terms of Use and, where appropriate, through separate notifications to users. In the event of any changes, you will be informed at least one month prior to their effective date about the content and impact of the changes.

Limitation of Liability
To the fullest extent permitted by law, BeFaster.fit’s liability is limited to statutory mandatory minimums. BeFaster.fit assumes full liability only for damages caused by gross negligence or intentional misconduct. This limitation does not affect claims based on mandatory product liability or other legally prescribed non-waivable rights.

15. RECOMMENDATION FOR USING OUR SOCIAL MEDIA CHANNELS AND TELEGRAM GROUPS
    Please be aware that changes in legal, business, or technical frameworks – particularly in the Web3 environment – can have a direct impact on your use of BeFaster.fit services. These developments may require timely action on your part or affect key functionalities of the platform. Although we communicate all essential updates through our official newsletter, user behaviour shows that such emails are frequently overlooked or unsubscribed from. Therefore, to ensure you remain fully informed, we strongly recommend following our official social media channels and joining our verified Telegram groups. Participation in these channels is entirely voluntary and not a requirement for using the BeFaster.fit platform. However, they are intended to provide real-time updates and a broader context for understanding ongoing changes – particularly for features tied to Web3 and decentralized technologies.

Crypto-assets, tokens, or services offered on this platform may be subject to Regulation (EU) 2023/1114 on Markets in Crypto-Assets (MiCA). BeFaster.fit Ltd. provides the required information to the best of its knowledge. However, no guarantee is made that tokens or services are lawful, exempt from registration, or unregulated in every jurisdiction. Users are responsible for independently verifying the applicable legal requirements and restrictions in their jurisdiction. BeFaster.fit Ltd. does not provide individual legal or tax advice. BeFaster.fit Ltd. reserves the right to adjust or restrict products or services at any time in compliance with regulatory requirements.

Notice on Digital Operational Resilience and Security Standards
BeFaster.fit Ltd. is committed to maintaining the highest security standards for the platform’s digital infrastructure. We implement continuous audits and measures to ensure operational stability and minimize risks related to cyber incidents or technical disruptions.
Although we are currently not directly subject to the requirements of the Digital Operational Resilience Act (DORA), we adhere to best practices in digital operational resilience and IT security, including but not limited to:

• Security protocols to prevent unauthorized access;
• Monitoring systems to detect and address potential threats early;

  Continuous improvement and adaptation of our security measures are fundamental to safeguarding the platform’s integrity and our users’ security at all times.

21. Indemnification
    You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless BeFaster.fit, its affiliates, directors, officers, employees, agents, partners, and licensors from and against any claims, demands, or lawsuits (including reasonable attorney’s fees) arising out of or related to:

22. Dispute Resolution
    As BeFaster.fit is a Maltese company, this agreement is governed by the laws of Malta. In the event of disputes or legal proceedings arising from this agreement that cannot be resolved through alternative dispute resolution, the competent courts of Malta shall have exclusive jurisdiction.
    It is expressly emphasized that all provisions of this agreement comply with mandatory European Union legal requirements, particularly consumer protection laws. Users residing within the EU retain their consumer rights under EU consumer protection directives, even when agreeing to these terms. Such rights are not waived, and consumers under EU law cannot renounce their statutory rights. If a dispute arises within the EU involving a consumer, applicable EU regulations must be observed and applied.
    Users also retain rights under EU consumer protection laws, including the right to withdraw from contracts within statutory periods. These terms ensure consumers receive all necessary information to exercise their rights under EU consumer protection legislation. Since arbitration agreements may not be fully enforceable in some EU or EEA member states, this agreement provides that alternative dispute resolution will be conducted only in accordance with European jurisprudence supporting these rules.

23. Restriction of Use for Users from the USA
    BeFaster.fit services are currently blocked for users from the United States. US residents are not permitted to use the BeFaster.fit app, protocol, or engage with BeFaster.fit in any manner. This is an internal company policy and may be revised or revoked at the company’s sole discretion.

24. Legal Proceedings
    The parties expressly agree that all disputes arising out of or related to this agreement or the use of BeFaster.fit services shall be resolved exclusively through individual arbitration and not by class actions or other representative proceedings. This provision applies only to businesses. Consumer rights remain unaffected, especially regarding minor claims. Consumers retain the right to pursue claims before competent courts.
    Regardless of the arbitration agreement, any party may seek court adjudication for disputes involving minor claims, defined by the applicable Maltese or EU legal thresholds. This provision explicitly applies to consumers, who cannot waive their right to seek judicial remedies.
    If any provision, especially the waiver of class actions, is found unenforceable, the remainder of this agreement shall remain unaffected. The parties shall modify the agreement in accordance with applicable law to preserve the validity of the remaining provisions.
25. Jurisdiction
    Governing Law and Jurisdiction for Businesses and Commercial Disputes
    All disputes arising out of or in connection with these Terms of Use or the use of the Services between businesses or commercial users shall be subject exclusively to the jurisdiction of the courts in Malta. All related proceedings shall be conducted before the competent courts of Malta.
