Terms of Use

This English version is provided for convenience. The Turkish version is the authoritative text; if the two differ, the Turkish version prevails.

1. Parties and Acceptance

These Terms of Use ("Terms") govern the use of the Vademde mobile app and the website www.vademde.com (the "Service") offered by Turgut Akın Kaya (a natural person operating under the "DoTa Medya" brand; "Vademde", "we"). By downloading, creating an account with or using the Service, you are deemed to have accepted these Terms and the Privacy Policy and KVKK Notice.

2. Description of the Service

Vademde is a personal/business finance tracking app that, with the user's approval, converts cheques, promissory notes, invoices, loan payment plans and other financial documents into debt, receivable, income, expense and due-date records.

Vademde is not an investment advisory, accounting, legal, tax advisory, or banking/payment service; it does not execute, hold or guarantee any payment on behalf of the parties. Reports and summaries provided by the app are for information purposes only; you are advised to consult a qualified professional before making financial, legal or tax decisions.

3. Account Creation and Security

• To use the Service you need to create an account with Sign in with Apple or with an email.
• You are responsible for the confidentiality of your account details and for the actions taken through your account.
• If you suspect unauthorized access to your account, you must notify us at info@vademde.com.
• You may use the Service only if you are over 18.
• If you invite other users to a workspace, you are responsible for the data you share with them.

4. Document Scanning, OCR and User Approval

• Fields such as amount, date and counterparty extracted by AI from the documents you scan never become a final financial record without your approval.
• Fields read with low confidence are clearly marked in the app; checking their accuracy before approving or correcting them is your responsibility.
• You are responsible for the accuracy and completeness of the records you approve; Vademde does not guarantee the accuracy of OCR results or of the data you approve, and cannot be held liable for incorrect records, missed payments or similar consequences arising from errors in OCR/AI output.

5. Workspaces

Personal and business workspaces are completely isolated from each other. When you are added to a business workspace as a team member, you can access that workspace's data; the responsibility for this access lies with the workspace owner.

6. Subscription Plans and Payment

Vademde offers different subscription plans: Free, Vademde Plus and Vademde Business (İşletme). Paid plans can be purchased through two different channels depending on the platform you use: in-app purchase (IAP) through the Apple App Store in the mobile app, and through our payment service provider Shopier on the website. Price and term information is shown on the relevant purchase screen; prices on the two channels are kept exactly the same.

6.1 Apple App Store (mobile app) subscriptions

The following terms apply to auto-renewing subscriptions:

• Payment is charged to your Apple ID account when you confirm the purchase.
• The subscription renews automatically unless you turn off auto-renewal at least 24 hours before the end of the current period.
• The renewal fee is charged to your account within 24 hours before the end of the current period.
• You can manage your subscription and turn off auto-renewal at any time under Settings > Apple ID > Subscriptions on your device.
• If a free trial is offered, any unused portion of the trial period is forfeited when you purchase a paid subscription.

Your payment details (card number, etc.) are not stored by Vademde; they are processed directly by Apple.

6.2 Website (Shopier) subscriptions

• Payment is taken on Shopier's secure payment page; your card details never reach Vademde's servers and are processed directly by Shopier.
• Web subscriptions do not renew automatically: to keep your access going at the end of each period you need to pay again from the relevant subscription page. For this reason there is no recurring automatic payment instruction for you to cancel.
• The email address you enter during payment must be the same as your Vademde account; your subscription is matched with and activated by this email automatically. If you use a different email, you need to get support via info@vademde.com.
• After payment is completed, your subscription usually becomes active within a few minutes.

7. Cancellation and Refunds

7.1 Apple App Store (mobile app) subscriptions

All purchase and refund transactions are carried out through the Apple App Store; refund requests are subject to Apple's own policies and to reportaproblem.apple.com. Vademde cannot process refunds directly outside the App Store.

7.2 Website (Shopier) subscriptions — Pre-Information and Right of Withdrawal

Vademde web subscriptions are intangible (digital) services performed instantly in an electronic environment, with your access opened at the moment of purchase. Under Turkish Law No. 6563 on the Regulation of Electronic Commerce and Article 15(1)(ğ) of the Distance Contracts Regulation, for services performed instantly in an electronic environment, the 14-day right of withdrawal can no longer be exercised if you expressly consent to the performance starting immediately and acknowledge that you will lose your right of withdrawal. When you complete the payment via Shopier and request that your subscription be activated immediately, you are deemed to have given this consent.

However, if your subscription is not activated despite your payment, if you accidentally pay twice, or if you experience a similar technical problem, you can contact us at info@vademde.com; we review requests submitted within 14 days of the purchase date and, if we find them justified, initiate the refund through Shopier.

By using the Service, you agree not to:

• Use the Service for an unlawful purpose or in a way that infringes the rights of others,
• Upload documents or identity information belonging to others without permission,

The documents you upload and the financial data you enter belong to you. You permit us to use this data to the extent necessary for us to provide the Service to you (processing, storage, OCR analysis).

10. Changes to the Service and Interruptions

To improve the Service, ensure its security or comply with legal requirements, we may change features, suspend some features or discontinue them. We try to give reasonable advance notice of interruptions other than planned maintenance.

11. Limitation of Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, we are not liable for indirect, incidental or consequential damages arising from incorrect OCR results, interruption of the service, data loss, or financial decisions made based on data approved by the user. This limitation does not apply in cases where intent or gross negligence gives rise to liability by law.

12. Termination of Account

These Terms are governed by the laws of the Republic of Türkiye. For disputes arising from these Terms, the courts and enforcement offices of İzmir, and, for consumer transactions, the relevant consumer arbitration committees and consumer courts, have jurisdiction.
