Coffee Voyage
Terms & Conditions
Last updated: September 5, 2026
01Acceptance of Terms
By downloading or using the Application you agree to the following terms. You are advised to read them carefully before use. If you do not agree with them, please do not use the Application.
02What the Application Offers
Coffee Voyage is a personal coffee journal. Free to use are the drink collection, creating your own entries, the Friends feature including joining and responding to coffee meetups, and the coffee bean recommendations and coffee search with offers from participating partner shops. The premium features comprise the searchable journal, the map view with its café list, the taste profile, further statistics, and creating your own coffee meetups. The feature set may change through updates; the Service Provider intends to keep the described core available but does not owe the unchanged persistence of any individual feature. Independently of premium, an Apple or Google account can optionally be linked in order to back up entries in the cloud and synchronise them between devices; this is free of charge and not a prerequisite for using the Application.
03User Account and Cloud Synchronisation
Using the Application does not require an account. You may voluntarily sign in with Apple or Google; your cafés and entries are then additionally stored on the Service Provider's server and synchronised between your devices. You are responsible for protecting access to your Apple or Google account, as it also grants access to your synchronised data. An account may only be used for your own purposes and not abusively; in cases of substantial abuse, in particular unlawful content or attacks on the infrastructure, the Service Provider may suspend or delete an account. You can delete your account at any time in the Application, which irrevocably removes the data stored on the server. Synchronisation is provided with due care but without any promise of a particular level of availability, and it does not replace your own backups.
04Subscription, Pricing and Cancellation
Premium is offered as a subscription through the App Store or Google Play. The applicable price and term are shown to you before purchase. The subscription renews automatically for the chosen term unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Cancellation is done solely in the subscription settings of your App Store or Google Play account, not inside the Application. Billing is handled by the respective store.
05Withdrawal and Refunds
Refunds are handled exclusively by the store you purchased through and follow its terms. The Service Provider can neither see nor issue payments. Statutory consumer rights remain unaffected.
06Backups Are Your Responsibility
Without a linked account, the Application stores all entries solely on your device; there is then no backup by the Service Provider and no way to restore your data. If the device is lost, damaged or reset, if the Application is uninstalled, or if you switch devices without a complete backup, the data is irrevocably lost in that case. With a linked account, entries are additionally backed up in the cloud and can be restored on a new device after signing in. The Service Provider does not, however, owe any particular level of availability or guarantee the completeness of that backup; keeping regular device backups remains your responsibility.
07Intellectual Property
Unauthorized copying or modification of the Application, any part of it, the illustrations or the trademarks is prohibited. Attempts to extract the source code, translate the Application or create derivative versions are not permitted. All trademarks, copyrights and other intellectual property rights in the Application remain with the Service Provider. The content you record remains yours.
08Your Content
You are responsible for the notes, photos and café details you record. The Service Provider does not review your content. Your coffee entries, notes, photos and café details are visible to you alone and are neither published nor shared with other users; as an exception, within the voluntary Friends feature your display name, the drinks you've tried, and any coffee meetups you create are deliberately shared with the users you've added or invited — see "Friends and Coffee Meetups". Please take care not to infringe the rights of others, for instance when photographing inside private premises or photographing people, and to keep in mind that a meetup's label and note are visible to the friends you invite. By linking an account you grant the Service Provider the purely technical right required to process that content for the purpose of storage, synchronisation and — where you initiate it — sharing with other users; all rights in your content remain yours.
09Friends and Coffee Meetups
The Friends feature and coffee meetups require a signed-in account. Your display name and friend code are meant to be shared with people you yourself invite. Unlawful, abusive or offensive content in a meetup's label or note is not permitted; the Service Provider may remove such meetups or accounts without prior notice. The Service Provider takes no responsibility for whether, or how, a meetup arranged between users actually takes place, or for any damage arising from it; it merely provides the technical means to arrange one. Push notifications about coffee meetups are delivered on a best-effort basis; no particular delivery time or guarantee applies, as this relies on services from Expo, Apple and Google that are outside the Service Provider's control.
10Third-Party Affiliate Offers
The bean recommendations and the coffee search show offers from participating partner shops (currently roastmarket.de), embedded via the AWIN affiliate network and labelled accordingly as "Ad". Tapping an offer takes you out of the Application to that partner shop's website; any resulting purchase contract is formed solely between you and that shop, not with the Service Provider. That shop alone is responsible for prices, availability, delivery, the right of withdrawal and the other content of those third-party offers; the Service Provider does not review them and gives no warranty regarding them. Should a purchase result from such a link, the Service Provider may receive a commission from the partner shop or from AWIN, at no extra cost to you. The recommendations are compiled automatically from taste keywords and do not constitute a purchase recommendation or quality guarantee by the Service Provider.
11Third-Party Services
The Application uses services with their own terms: Supabase for account, synchronisation and catalogue (supabase.com/terms), Apple for “Sign in with Apple”, Apple Maps and purchase handling on iOS (apple.com/legal/internet-services), Google for Google Sign-In, Google Maps and Google Play Services (policies.google.com/terms), RevenueCat for purchases (revenuecat.com/terms), Expo for push notifications and as the development platform (expo.dev/terms), and AWIN as the affiliate network for partner-shop offers (awin.com), with roastmarket.de as the only partner shop at present.
12Internet Connectivity
The Application is usable without an internet connection; entries you record are stored locally. An active connection is needed for individual features: the map display, filling in city and country from your location, syncing the drink and recipe catalogue, signing in and cloud synchronisation, the Friends and coffee meetups feature including push notifications, displaying the bean recommendations and the coffee search, sending feedback, and buying or restoring premium. The Service Provider cannot be held responsible if these features are unavailable for lack of a connection.
13Network Charges
If you use the Application outside a Wi-Fi area, the terms of your mobile provider continue to apply. Charges for data usage may arise, including roaming charges when used outside your home network. These costs are yours to bear.
14Device Responsibility
It is your responsibility to maintain the security of your device and access to the Application. Jailbreaking or rooting your device is strongly discouraged, as it removes protections imposed by the operating system and may stop the Application from functioning correctly. Likewise, the Service Provider cannot ensure that your device stays charged and operational.
15Liability
The Service Provider is liable without limitation for intent and gross negligence as well as for injury to life, body or health. For ordinary negligence it is liable only for the breach of a material contractual obligation and limited to the foreseeable damage typical of the contract. Liability is otherwise excluded. Information on drinks, origins and caffeine content is provided for orientation and enjoyment; the caffeine figures are rough estimates based on a typical preparation and do not constitute medical or nutritional advice.
16Updates and Termination
The Service Provider may update the Application. System requirements may change; to continue using the Application you must install the updates offered. The Service Provider does not guarantee that the Application will remain compatible with every operating system version. It may discontinue the Application; in that case subscription fees already paid are refunded pro rata through the respective store.
17Changes to These Terms
The Service Provider may update these terms. Changes are announced by publishing the new version on this page. You are advised to review this page regularly.
