3 Credit Management Terms

The following section details the credit management terms on DocGenius, a central element of our billing and access to services system. It is structured around the acquisition, use, and expiration and renewal of credits, thus providing a comprehensive view of how credits facilitate an optimized and flexible user experience.

3.1 Credit Acquisition

After the initial registration, which offers each new user 500 credits valid for 14 days, DocGenius proposes different subscription plans for the acquisition of additional credits, necessary for the continuation of the use of the platform. These plans are designed to meet the varied needs of our users, ranging from freelancers to large companies.

  • The "Starter" plan is ideal for users with occasional needs. It allows the purchase of credits on consumption, with no commitment or minimum required. The used credits are billed at the end of the month.
  • For regular users, the "Pro" plan at 49€ per month includes 1500 credits and offers standard customer support. Additional credits are billed at the end of the month with a 25% reduction. This option is designed to offer a better price-performance ratio to professionals.
  • The "Enterprise" plan, intended for larger organizations, is priced at 249€ per month. It includes 10000 credits, a dedicated account manager, and personalized training sessions on the optimal use of DocGenius. Additional credits are billed at the end of the month with a 33% reduction.

For companies with specific needs, DocGenius offers the possibility of customized plans. These plans allow negotiation of the volume of credits and additional services directly with an account manager, thus ensuring a solution perfectly adapted to each case.

Payments can be made via credit card, direct debit, PayPal, or bank transfer, thanks to our payment partner Stripe, guaranteeing a secure and reliable transaction.

By choosing one of these plans, users ensure continuous access to the innovative services of DocGenius, while controlling their budget and optimizing their document production.

3.2 Credit Usage

The credits acquired on DocGenius serve to access all the services and types of documents offered by the platform. Each action, from creating a document to using advanced features, is valued in credits, whose count is automatically deducted upon use.

  • Unrestricted use: Credits can be used for all services available on DocGenius, without any restriction on document type or functionality. This offers maximum flexibility to users to meet their specific needs.
  • Non-transferability: It is important to note that credits are linked to the workspace in which they were acquired. They cannot be shared or transferred between different workspaces.
  • Consumption tracking: Users have a dashboard integrated into their account, allowing real-time tracking of the balance of available credits and the history of their use. Email notifications are also sent to alert users when their credit balance reaches a critical threshold or before their expiration, thus ensuring optimal management of resources.
  • Engagement conditions: Once an order is placed and the credits committed, no change or cancellation is possible.
  • Flexibility and promotions: While DocGenius does not offer specific flexibility options outside of subscription plans, users are encouraged to contact customer support to discuss particular needs.

This credit management is designed to offer a transparent and efficient user experience, enabling each user to maximize the use of DocGenius services while controlling their budget.

3.3 Expiration and Renewal

The management of credits on DocGenius is designed to offer flexibility and control to our users, while ensuring optimal use of our services.

  • Expiration of credits: Credits purchased in the form of prepaid packs benefit from a validity period of 12 months. Credits offered via the "Pro" and "Enterprise" formulas expire at the end of the month of their issuance. Unused credits at their expiration are lost definitively, without possibility of recovery or compensation.
  • Renewal of credits: To guarantee continuity in the use of DocGenius services, an automatic renewal option for credits is activated by default for all subscriptions. This option ensures that users always have the necessary credits for their document needs, without interruption. Credits consumed beyond the amount included in the subscription are billed at the end of the month, thus allowing fluid and surprise-free management of resources. This automatic renewal option is effective up to a maximum ceiling defined by the user.

To manage the automatic renewal option or for any question related to the expiration and renewal of credits, users are invited to consult their dashboard or to contact customer service directly.

5 Consequences of Violations

This section addresses the measures taken by DocGenius in case of non-compliance with the terms of use. It is divided into two main parts: temporary account suspension, applied as a first response to violations, and conflict resolution, detailing the procedure for managing disputes related to the use of the platform.

5.1 Temporary Account Suspension

As part of the management of violations of the terms of use, DocGenius applies a strict policy aimed at maintaining the security and integrity of its platform. Temporary account suspension constitutes a corrective measure provided for cases of non-compliance with the commitments made by users.

The criteria leading to a temporary suspension include, but are not limited to, repeated violations of authorized uses, such as the dissemination of copyrighted content without authorization, engagement in illegal activities, or the exercise of intimidation and harassment towards other users. Excessive non-compliant use of the subscription, manifested by a consumption of credits largely superior to that provided for without regularization of the necessary payments, as well as attempts to compromise the security of the platform, including hacking and sending viruses, are also likely to lead to a suspension.

The suspension process is immediate and without prior warning for serious offenses, with a suspension period set at 30 days. To restore their account, users must contact customer support and collaborate in resolving the issues that led to the suspension.

Immediately after the suspension, the user concerned receives a notification on the platform as well as an email detailing the reasons for the suspension. This message also contains specific instructions on how to contact support to initiate the resolution process and possibly recover access to the account.

This rigorous approach aims to ensure that DocGenius remains a safe and respectful environment for everyone's rights, while emphasizing the importance of respecting the established terms of use.

5.2 Conflict Resolution

As part of the management of violations of the terms of use, DocGenius implements a structured conflict resolution process, aimed at resolving disputes that may arise between DocGenius and its users in a fair and efficient manner. This process is designed to ensure that all parties have an opportunity to present their case and reach an amicable solution.

  1. Initial Contact: The process begins with an initial contact from the user via a dedicated form on the DocGenius website. This ensures that all necessary information is collected in a structured manner for a precise evaluation of the conflict.
  2. Internal Evaluation: Once the form is received, a dedicated team at DocGenius conducts an internal evaluation of the conflict. This step aims to understand the circumstances leading to the situation, based on the information provided by the user and the data available on the platform.
  3. Mediation: If necessary, and depending on the nature of the conflict, mediation is proposed to find an amicable resolution. DocGenius may call upon third parties or external experts to serve as neutral mediators or provide specific technical expertise, only at the request of one or both parties involved.
  4. Resolution: The aim of mediation is to reach a solution satisfactory to all parties. If an amicable resolution is found, the terms of the agreement are documented and the necessary measures are taken to implement the agreed-upon solution.
  5. Appropriate Measures: In case of failure of the mediation, or if the nature of the conflict justifies it, DocGenius reserves the right to take the appropriate measures according to the terms of use. This may include, but is not limited to, the suspension or termination of the user's account.

DocGenius is committed to handling all conflicts with the utmost care and attention, respecting the principles of fairness and transparency. Users are encouraged to contact DocGenius customer support for any questions or concerns related to the conflict resolution process.
