1. Provider and Contractual Partner

These Beta Tester Conditions apply to participation in the beta testing program of mevidual Germany GmbH, Nassaustraße 28, 65719 Hofheim am Taunus, Germany, Email: info@mevidual.com, Phone: (+49) 06127 7064893, hereinafter referred to as "mevidual", "we", "us" or "our".

These Beta Tester Conditions apply in addition to our general terms and conditions, terms of use, privacy policy, safety and usage instructions. In case of contradictions, these Beta Tester Conditions for participation in the Beta Program shall prevail.

Insofar as our general terms and conditions contain provisions regarding purchase, payment, acquisition of ownership, return, refund, Amazon orders or other paid orders, these shall only apply to the Beta Program if expressly referenced in these Beta Tester Conditions. The Beta Program is not a regular purchase process.

2. Subject of the Beta Program

mevidual provides selected participants with a mevidual system within the framework of a temporary beta test. This may include in particular the mevidual Synthor, accessories, documentation, app access, software, firmware, test materials, packaging and, where applicable, consumables.

The purpose of the Beta Program is to test the system under realistic usage conditions, to receive feedback, to implement technical and user-related improvements, and to further develop the usability, stability, security, and functionality of the system.

Participation in the Beta Program does not give rise to any claim to participate in future tests, to permanent use, to acquisition of ownership, to free products after the end of the beta test, or to the availability of certain functions.

3. Eligibility for Participation

Only natural persons who are at least 18 years old and have full legal capacity may participate.

Participation is only possible by invitation from mevidual and using a valid beta link or beta coupon code. The beta link and beta coupon code are personal, non-transferable, and may not be published, sold, passed on, or misused.

mevidual may refuse or terminate participation if there is a justified suspicion that false information has been provided, the beta link or beta coupon code has been misused, no beta devices are available, or these Beta Tester Conditions are being violated.

4. No Purchase, No Gift, No Transfer of Ownership

The device provided within the Beta Program is neither sold nor given away as a gift.

The provision is exclusively a free, temporary loan / hire. Ownership of the device, accessories, and other non-consumable components remains with mevidual Germany GmbH or the respective rightful owner at all times.

Even if a coupon code is used in the online process and a price of 0.00 EUR is displayed, this does not constitute a purchase contract for the device and no transfer of ownership. The coupon code is used exclusively for the technical processing of the free beta provision.

The Beta Tester is not entitled to sell, give away, pledge, rent, lend, pass on, permanently transfer to third parties, or otherwise dispose of the device.

5. Conclusion of the Beta Test Agreement

The Beta Test Agreement is concluded when the Beta Tester accepts these Beta Tester Conditions in the online process, definitively starts the beta test, and mevidual confirms participation or ships the beta device.

Before completing the process, the Beta Tester will be clearly shown that it is a free beta test participation with a return obligation and that no ownership of the device will be transferred.

The use of the beta coupon code does not establish a right to delivery or participation. mevidual may reject a beta order, in particular, if no devices are available, the participation requirements are not met, there is suspicion of misuse, or legal, technical, organizational, or safety-related reasons prevent it.

6. Costs of the Beta Program

For participation in the beta test and the temporary use of the beta device, mevidual does not charge a purchase price or a rental fee.

Unless expressly stated otherwise in individual cases, mevidual bears the costs for shipping the beta device to the beta tester as well as the costs for proper return, if the return method provided by mevidual is used.

However, the beta tester bears costs, damages or losses incurred as a result of violating these beta tester conditions, negligently damaging or losing the device, failing to return it, or not using the return method provided by mevidual.

7. Duration of the Beta Test

The beta test begins with the delivery of the beta device to the beta tester and initially runs for a period of 14 calendar days.

An extension of the beta test phase is only possible after prior consultation with mevidual and requires the express written consent of mevidual Germany GmbH, for example by e-mail. The beta tester has no right to an extension.

Without such express consent, the beta tester's right of use automatically ends after the 14-day beta test phase. Mere continued use of the beta device, a delayed recall by mevidual or mevidual's silence do not count as an extension of the beta test phase.

After the expiration of the beta test phase or an expressly confirmed extension, the beta tester is obliged to return the beta device completely and properly to mevidual without delay, at the latest within 14 calendar days after the end of the beta test phase.

8. Obligation to Return

The beta tester must return the same device that was provided to them. The return of another device or a replacement device is only permitted with the prior written consent of mevidual Germany GmbH.

The following items must be returned:

  • the mevidual Synthor,
  • supplied accessories,
  • power supplies, cables, adapters, and other technical components,
  • supplied transport or protective packaging, if still available,
  • other non-consumable components that were explicitly designated as returnable.

Consumables, test raw materials, or ingredients that were consumed as intended within the scope of the beta test do not have to be returned, unless mevidual states otherwise.

The device must be returned in a cleaned, carefully packaged, and complete condition. Normal signs of wear from contractual use are permissible.

Damage due to improper use, opening the device, tampering, dropping, liquid damage, unauthorized cleaning methods, unauthorized repair attempts, or use contrary to the operating instructions, safety information, or app notices is not permitted.

9. Non-Return, Delayed Return and Loss

If the beta tester does not return the device in due time after the end of the beta test phase, mevidual may request its return and set a reasonable grace period.

A delayed return or continued use of the beta device after the beta test phase has expired does not constitute an extension of the beta test phase or a further right of use, unless mevidual Germany GmbH has expressly agreed to the extension in text form beforehand.

If the return does not take place even after a reasonable grace period, mevidual can demand surrender, compensation and reimbursement of the incurred damage according to legal provisions. This does not apply if the beta tester is not responsible for the delayed or impossible return.

The claim for compensation may include, in particular, the replacement value, repair costs, depreciation, shipping costs, and reasonable legal prosecution costs.

A payment of damages does not automatically lead to an acquisition of ownership of the device, unless mevidual expressly confirms otherwise in text form.

mevidual may block or restrict app access and associated services if the device is not returned, a security risk exists, or these Beta Tester Conditions are violated.

10. Use of the Beta Device
