To access the Services, you must create an account by providing accurate and complete registration information. You agree to keep your account information current at all times.

3.2. Account Security

You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your login credentials and for all activities that occur under your account. You must notify us immediately of any unauthorised access to or use of your account. We recommend enabling two-factor authentication for enhanced security.

3.3. Authorised Users

You may invite team members to your Organisation subject to the limits of your Plan. You are responsible for ensuring that all users with access to your account comply with these Terms. You shall be liable for any breach of these Terms by your authorised users as if such breach had been committed by you.

4. Subscription Plans, Fees & Billing

4.1. Plan Types

The Services are available through the following subscription tiers:

• Free Plan (€0): A limited, free-of-charge plan with basic features. The Free plan includes “Powered by Kukie.io” branding on the consent banner, up to 5 registered sites, 100 pages per scan, 1 team member, 4 cookie categories, and community support.
• Pro Plan (€9.90/month or €99/year): A paid plan with expanded limits, including up to 20 sites, 1,000 pages per scan, 2 team members, unlimited cookie categories, scheduled scans, custom CSS, and custom banner logo. “Powered by Kukie.io” branding is still required on the Pro plan. The yearly billing cycle offers a discount.
• Agency Plan (€19/month or €190/year): A premium plan with the full feature set, including up to 50 sites, 3,000 pages per scan, unlimited team members, removal of “Powered by Kukie.io” branding, custom CSS, custom banner logo, and scheduled scans. The yearly billing cycle offers a discount.
• Unlimited Plan (€49/month or €490/year): The top-tier plan with unlimited sites, unlimited pages per scan, unlimited team members, all Agency features, extended consent retention (36 months), and priority support. The yearly billing cycle offers a discount.

The complete and current features, limits, and pricing for each plan are detailed on our pricing page, which is the authoritative source for current plan details. We reserve the right to modify plan features, limits, and pricing from time to time, subject to clause 4.3.

4.2. Billing Cycle

Subscriptions are billed per Organisation, not per individual user. All team members within an Organisation share the Organisation’s subscription. Customers may choose between monthly or yearly billing cycles. Yearly billing offers a discount (currently 20% compared to monthly billing).

All prices are displayed in EUR (€) and exclude applicable taxes. Value Added Tax (VAT), sales tax, or other applicable taxes are calculated and collected at checkout by our payment processor, Stripe, where required by law.

Customers may switch between monthly and yearly billing at any time. Changes to the billing cycle take effect on the next billing date.

4.3. Price Changes

We reserve the right to change our pricing at any time. Price changes for existing subscriptions will take effect at the start of the next billing period following at least 30 days’ notice sent to the email address associated with your account.

4.4. Free Trial

Paid plans may offer a free trial period (currently 14 days). During the Trial Period, you will have access to the full features of the selected Plan.

A valid payment method (credit or debit card) is required to start a trial. Each Organisation is entitled to one free trial only - once used, a trial cannot be restarted on the same Organisation, regardless of whether a different plan is selected.

If the trial is not cancelled before it ends, the subscription automatically converts to a paid subscription and the payment method on file is charged at the applicable plan rate. Trial cancellation is immediate and no charge is applied.

4.5. Cancellation

The Organisation owner may cancel a subscription at any time from the Billing page in the dashboard.

• Active paid subscriptions: Cancellation takes effect at the end of the current billing period. Full access to paid features continues until then (grace period). A cancelled subscription may be resumed at any time before the grace period ends.
• Trial subscriptions: Cancellation is immediate with no charge.

Upon cancellation (after the grace period expires, or immediately for trials), the Organisation is downgraded to the Free plan. Registered sites remain active, but premium features are disabled: custom CSS stops applying, scheduled scans are paused, “Powered by Kukie.io” branding re-appears where required, custom logos are removed from the banner, and scan page limits are reduced to Free plan levels.

4.6. Refund Policy

All payments are non-refundable. We do not provide refunds or credits for any partial subscription periods, unused features, or plan downgrades. By subscribing, you acknowledge and agree that no refunds will be issued under any circumstances.

4.7. Plan Changes (Upgrades & Downgrades)

Customers may upgrade or downgrade their plan at any time from the Billing page.

• Upgrades: Take effect immediately. The new plan’s pricing is prorated for the remainder of the current billing period, and an invoice is issued for the difference.
• Downgrades: Take effect at the end of the current billing period. Full access to the current plan continues until then.

If a downgrade would cause the Organisation to exceed the new plan’s limits (for example, more registered sites than the new plan allows), the excess resources are not deleted, but premium features are restricted in accordance with the new plan’s feature set.

4.8. Payment Processing

All payments are processed securely by Stripe, our third-party payment processor. We do not store credit card or debit card details on our servers. By subscribing, you agree to Stripe’s terms of service.

Failed payments may result in suspension of the subscription and restriction of access to paid features. We will make reasonable efforts to notify the Organisation owner of payment failures by email. You are responsible for ensuring that your payment details are accurate and up to date. Payment information can be managed through the Stripe Customer Portal, accessible from the Billing page in your dashboard.

4.9. Branding

“Powered by Kukie.io” branding is displayed on the consent banner for Free and Pro plans. Only the Agency and Unlimited plans permit removal of this branding. Attempts to hide, modify, or remove the branding through CSS or other means on plans that require it constitute a violation of these Terms.

5. Consent Data and Cookie Scanning

5.1. Consent Logging

When an End User interacts with the consent banner on your website, the Services log the consent record. Consent Data is stored securely and includes an anonymised IP address, browser user agent, your site’s domain, the date and time of consent, the consent choices made, and an encrypted identifier. You may export Consent Data from the dashboard.

5.2. Consent Retention

Consent Data is retained for the period defined by your Plan (ranging from 12 to 36 months). After expiry, Consent Data is automatically deleted and may only be used in aggregated, anonymised form for platform statistics.

5.3. Cookie Scanning

The Services include an automated cookie scanner that crawls your website to identify cookies and similar tracking technologies. Scan results are provided as-is. It is your responsibility to review and verify the accuracy of scan results and cookie categorisations. Scans are subject to the page limits of your Plan.

5.4. Auto-Categorisation

The scanner includes an automatic cookie categorisation feature. While we make reasonable efforts to categorise cookies accurately, auto-categorisation is provided as an aid and not a guarantee. You are ultimately responsible for ensuring that all cookie categorisations are correct and compliant with applicable regulations.

6. Licence and Intellectual Property
