Terms of Use
Last updated: August 26, 2025
​
These Terms of Use (“Terms”) govern your access to and use of the FEDMAN mobile application (the “App”) and the fedman.io website (the “Site”), together with any related services, features, or content (collectively, the “Services”).
The Services are provided by Skillforge.VIP Ltd (“FEDMAN”, “we”, “us”, “our”).
By using the Services, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use the Services.
Important: If you use the Services on behalf of an organisation (e.g., your employer), you represent that you have authority to bind that organisation to these Terms. In case of conflict between these Terms and a separately executed agreement with FEDMAN (a “Customer Agreement”), the Customer Agreement controls for the relevant Services.

To the extent permitted by law, the store provider has no warranty or liability obligations regarding the App.
You must comply with the store’s terms and policies.
Apple‑specific: Apple and its subsidiaries are third‑party beneficiaries of these Terms with respect to the App and may enforce them.
10) Open‑source software
The Services may include components subject to open‑source licences. Those components are licensed to you under their respective licences, not these Terms. Copies of applicable licences and notices are provided within the Services or on request.
11) Privacy
Our processing of personal data is described in the FEDMAN Privacy Policy, available on the Site or in‑app. Please review it to understand how we collect, use, and share personal data and your rights.
​
12) Moderation, complaints & EU Digital Services Act
If the Services host or disseminate User Content in the EU, we act as a hosting service provider under the EU Digital Services Act (DSA).
​
-
Notice & Action. You can report allegedly illegal content or violations via info@fedman.io or the in‑product reporting tool. We will review and take appropriate action and provide a statement of reasons where required.

​
13) Intellectual‑property complaints
If you believe content infringes your rights, contact us at info@fedman.io with sufficient detail to identify the content and the rights you claim. If you are in the U.S., you may also send a DMCA notice to that address; repeat infringers’ accounts may be terminated where appropriate.
14) Security
We implement reasonable technical and organisational measures to secure the Services. However, no system is perfectly secure. Please notify info@fedman.io of suspected vulnerabilities or incidents.
15) Suspension & termination
​
We may suspend or terminate your access immediately if: (a) you materially or repeatedly breach these Terms; (b) we are required to do so by law; or (c) your continued use poses a risk to users or the Services. You may stop using the Services at any time and request account closure via support. Upon termination, your licence ends and we may delete or disable access to User Content after a reasonable period, subject to legal obligations and back‑ups.
16) Warranties & disclaimers
Except as expressly stated:
​
-
The Services are provided “as is” and “as available” without warranties of any kind, whether express, implied, or statutory, including merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non‑infringement.
We do not warrant that the Services will be uninterrupted, secure, or error‑free, or that content will be accurate or complete.
For consumers, nothing in these Terms limits rights that cannot be limited under mandatory consumer law.
17) Limitation of liability
​
To the maximum extent permitted by law:
-
Indirect damages. We are not liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or for loss of profits, revenues, data, or goodwill.
-
Cap. For paid users and organisational customers, our aggregate liability for all claims arising out of or relating to the Services is limited to the amounts paid to us for the Services giving rise to the claim during the 12 months preceding the event giving rise to liability (or USD/EUR/CHF 100 for free users).
-
Consumer carve‑outs. We do not exclude or limit liability where it would be unlawful (e.g., for death or personal injury caused by negligence, or for fraud). Your mandatory consumer rights (EU/UK/CH) remain unaffected.
18) Indemnity (business use)
If you use the Services for business, you will indemnify and hold harmless FEDMAN and our affiliates, officers, employees, and agents from and against any third‑party claims and related liabilities, damages, losses, and expenses (including reasonable legal fees) arising from your unlawful use of the Services or breach of these Terms.
19) Export control & sanctions
​
You must comply with applicable export control and sanctions laws of the EU, UK, Switzerland, U.S., and other jurisdictions. You may not use the Services if you are located in, or are a national of, a country or territory subject to comprehensive sanctions, or if you are a restricted party.
​
20) Governing law; venue; consumer rights
-
Default governing law. These Terms and any non‑contractual obligations arising out of them are governed by the laws of England & Wales, without regard to conflict‑of‑law rules. Courts located in London, UK have exclusive jurisdiction.
-
Consumers in EU/UK/CH. If you are a consumer, you may benefit from mandatory protections of your country of residence and you may bring proceedings in your local courts.
-
Alternative dispute resolution. Where required, we will provide information about ADR or online dispute resolution platforms.
21) Changes to the Services or Terms
​
We may modify the Services, including adding or removing features. We may change these Terms to reflect changes in the Services, legal requirements, or business needs. If a change is material, we will provide reasonable notice (e.g., by email, in‑app, or on the Site). Your continued use after the effective date constitutes acceptance. If you do not agree, you must stop using the Services.
22) Miscellaneous
-
Entire agreement. These Terms, together with any applicable Customer Agreement and policies referenced here (e.g., Privacy Policy), form the entire agreement between you and FEDMAN.
-
Severability. If any provision is unenforceable, the remainder remains in effect.
-
No waiver. Failure to enforce a provision is not a waiver.
-
Assignment. You may not assign these Terms without our consent. We may assign them as part of a corporate transaction or otherwise.
-
Notices. We may provide notices by email, in‑app messages, or posting on the Site. You should keep your contact details current.
