Terms and Conditions
INTRODUCTION
This Agreement (the "Agreement") governs the use of the Chargo app ("Chargo" or "the App”). The parties to the Agreement are you as a user of Chargo (" you" or "yours") and Chargo AS with organization number 9230 742 778 ("the Company", "we", "our" or "us").
You accept the Agreement by creating a user profile in the App. The terms also apply to the use of our website as far as it is appropriate.
Terms are subject to change. If change occurs to terms that are of importance to you, you will be notified before the change takes effect, so you can decide whether you want to continue using Chargo subject to the new terms.
We want to offer the best possible service that is tailored to the needs of the users. Chargo is therefore constantly evolving in terms of appearance, functionality and content. We will make sure to keep you informed about changes and new opportunities.
CREATING A USER ACCOUNT
In order to unlock a powerbank and use it to charge your mobile device, you must register a user account in the App. You can only register one user account, and you must ensure that all information about you as a user is accurate and up to date at all times.
The age limit for using Chargo is 13 years.
CHARGO USER GUIDELINES
Chargo is for your personal use only, unless otherwise agreed in writing with us. You must not allow others to use our services through your user account, and you must ensure that others do not have access to login information to your user account. If you become aware of any unauthorized use of your user account, you must notify us immediately so that the user account is blocked. You are fully responsible for all use of Chargo through your User Account until your User Account is deactivated or blocked.
When using a power bank, you must perform a basic check of the unit and the supplied cables to ensure that these are not visible damage and that the unit has sufficient battery capacity. This is done by shaking the device and checking the battery light indicator. You should also regularly check that the power bank is functioning properly and has sufficient battery capacity throughout the rental period, so that you can benefit from our service as much as possible.
If you notice any errors or damage to the power bank or the cables, do not use it and you must notify us immediately through the App or by contacting our customer service: support@chargo.io. The same applies if other problems arise when using our services.
"You must treat Chargos equipment with care and as if it were your own. The equipment must be returned in the same condition as it was at collection. We reserve the right to claim compensation for damage beyond normal wear and tear according to the current price list, cf. clause 7.1."
ACTIVATION AND END OF THE RENTAL PERIOD/CHARGO PASS/CHARGO SUBSCRIPTION
The rental period starts by scanning the QR code at the charging station and accepting pricing in the App or browser to unlock the power bank. If you become aware of damage, lack of battery capacity or other problems, do not use the power bank and notify us as soon as possible, cf. section 3.3.
The rental period lasts from activation until the power bank is returned in accordance with this point. Return of the power bank is done by placing the power bank back in a free slot in the charging station and checking that the power bank is locked. You will then receive confirmation in the App, or browser that the rental has ended.
A Chargo Subscription is active from the time you sign the subscription in the app. You can rent Chargo Power Banks as many times as you like while the subscription is active. You can cancel the subscription at any time in the app.
DAMAGES AND LACK OF RETURN
If the power bank is lost, damaged or for any other reason it is not possible to return the power bank in accordance with clauses 3.4 and 4.2 before the expiry of the maximum rental period, your debit card will be charged according to the current price list for the rental period and the replacement of the power bank.
PRICES AND INVOICE FEES
See current price list under Pricing in the Chargo app, or browser. Chargo Subscriptions are automatically renewed every month until cancelled by the user in the app.
If you wish to keep the power bank after use, you may not return the power bank as required by point 4.2. In that case, you will be charged for the power bank according to the current price list at the end of the maximum rental period. See the price list for more information. Price per minute during the rental period counts as well.
If there is no cover on the debit/credit card registered in the App, and/or the user does not pay for any outstadning rental amount, we reserve the right to suspend further use of our services until payment has been made. In such cases, we may also have to claim missing payment(s) through invoice. In that case, an invoice and administration fee of NOK 125 will be charged.
