Terms and Conditions

Last updated: September 9, 2026

Agreement to our Legal Terms

We are Articue Tech Limited (referred to as "Company," "we," "us," or "our"), a company registered in Hong Kong with a registered address at Unit B, 12/F, Hang Seng Causeway Bay Building, 28 Yee Wo Street, Causeway Bay, Hong Kong.

We operate the website https://dakka.app (the "Site") and the mobile application Dakka (the "App"), along with any other related products and services that refer or link to these legal terms (the "Legal Terms") (collectively, the "Services").

You can contact us by email at hello@dakka.app or by mail to Unit B, 12/F, Hang Seng Causeway Bay Building, 28 Yee Wo Street, Causeway Bay, Hong Kong.

These Legal Terms constitute a legally binding agreement made between you, whether personally or on behalf of an entity ("you"), and Articue Tech Limited, concerning your access to and use of the Services. You agree that by accessing the Services, you have read, understood, and agreed to be bound by all of these Legal Terms. IF YOU DO NOT AGREE WITH ALL OF THESE LEGAL TERMS, THEN YOU ARE EXPRESSLY PROHIBITED FROM USING THE SERVICES AND YOU MUST DISCONTINUE USE IMMEDIATELY.

Supplemental terms and conditions or documents that may be posted on the Services from time to time are hereby expressly incorporated herein by reference. We reserve the right, in our sole discretion, to make changes or modifications to these Legal Terms at any time and for any reason. We will alert you about any changes by updating the "Last updated" date of these Legal Terms, and you waive any right to receive specific notice of each such change. It is your responsibility to periodically review these Legal Terms to stay informed of updates. You will be subject to, and will be deemed to have been made aware of and to have accepted, the changes in any revised Legal Terms by your continued use of the Services after the date such revised Legal Terms are posted.

We recommend that you print a copy of these Legal Terms for your records.

1. Our Services

The information provided when using the Services is not intended for distribution to or use by any person or entity in any jurisdiction or country where such distribution or use would be contrary to law or regulation or which would subject us to any registration requirement within such jurisdiction or country. Accordingly, those persons who choose to access the Services from other locations do so on their own initiative and are solely responsible for compliance with local laws, if and to the extent local laws are applicable.

The Services are not tailored to comply with industry-specific regulations (Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA), Federal Information Security Management Act (FISMA), etc.), so if your interactions would be subjected to such laws, you may not use the Services. You may not use the Services in a way that would violate the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act (GLBA).

2. Intellectual Property Rights

We are the owner or the licensee of all intellectual property rights in our Services, including all source code, databases, functionality, software, website designs, audio, video, text, photographs, and graphics in the Services (collectively, the "Content"), as well as the trademarks, service marks, and logos contained therein (the "Marks"). This does not include content you submit, which is dealt with in sections 10, 11, and 13.

Our Content and Marks are protected by copyright and trademark laws (and various other intellectual property rights and unfair competition laws) and treaties in Hong Kong and around the world.

The Content and Marks are provided in or through the Services "AS IS" for your personal, non-commercial use only.

Subject to your compliance with these Legal Terms, including the "Prohibited Activities" section below, we grant you a non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to:

- Access the Services; and

- Download or print a copy of any portion of the Content to which you have properly gained access.

Solely for your personal, non-commercial use.

Except as set out in this section or elsewhere in our Legal Terms, no part of the Services and no Content or Marks may be copied, reproduced, aggregated, republished, uploaded, posted, publicly displayed, encoded, translated, transmitted, distributed, sold, licensed, or otherwise exploited for any commercial purpose whatsoever, without our express prior written permission.

If you wish to make any use of the Services, the Content, or the Marks other than as set out in this section or elsewhere in our Legal Terms, please address your request to: hello@dakka.app. If we ever grant you the permission to post, reproduce, or publicly display any part of our Services or Content, you must identify us as the owners or licensors of the Services, Content, or Marks and ensure that any copyright or proprietary notice appears or is visible on posting, reproducing, or displaying our Content.

We reserve all rights not expressly granted to you in and to the Services, Content, and Marks.

Any breach of these Intellectual Property Rights will constitute a material breach of our Legal Terms and your right to use our Services will terminate immediately.

3. Your Account and Sign in with Apple

Some features of the Services — including your profile, synced bookmarks and coffee tracker, and Coffeemate — require an account. Sign in with Apple is the only way to create an account. We do not issue or store passwords; authentication is performed by Apple.

When you sign in, Apple provides us with an identifier that is unique to you and to our developer account, and — where you permit it — your name and email address. Apple allows you to hide your real email address and use a private relay address instead; the Services work either way. Your use of Sign in with Apple and of your Apple ID is also governed by Apple's own terms and privacy policy, which we do not control.

You are responsible for maintaining the security of the Apple ID and device you use to access your account, and for all activity that occurs under your account. You must notify us at hello@dakka.app promptly if you believe your account has been accessed without your authorization. You may not create an account on behalf of anyone else, sell or transfer your account, or allow another person to use it.

If you used the App before creating an account, signing in links that installation to your new account, and data previously stored against that installation — including your usage history, notes, and any membership status — becomes associated with your account. If the device you sign in on has already been linked to a different account, that data is not transferred to you.

You may revoke our access to Sign in with Apple at any time in your device settings. Doing so prevents future sign-ins but does not delete your account; to delete your account, see section 15.

4. Your Profile and Profile Picture

You may add a display name and a profile picture, and provide your gender and date of birth, when you set up your account. Your display name and profile picture are public. They are shown to other users of the Services and are served from a publicly accessible URL, which means anyone who has the link can view the image. Do not upload a profile picture you are not willing to have seen by others.

You represent and warrant that any profile picture you upload:

- is of you, or is an image you have the right to use;
- does not infringe anyone's copyright, trademark, privacy, publicity, or other rights;
- does not depict another identifiable person without their consent;
- does not depict a minor;
- is not nude, sexually explicit, violent, hateful, harassing, deceptive, or otherwise unlawful; and
- does not impersonate another person, brand, or public figure.

Profile pictures must be no larger than 5MB. We may remove any profile picture, display name, or profile detail that we believe in our sole discretion breaches these Legal Terms, without notice, and may suspend or terminate the account responsible.

You must provide an accurate date of birth. The Services are for people aged 18 and over, and we may terminate any account we believe belongs to a person under 18. You may change or remove your display name and profile picture at any time in the App. Removing an image stops us serving it, but we cannot recover copies that other users have already viewed, downloaded, or saved.

5. User Representations

By using the Services, you represent and warrant that: (1) all account and profile information you submit is and will remain true, accurate, current, and complete, including your date of birth; (2) you will maintain the accuracy of such information and promptly update it as necessary; (3) you have the legal capacity and you agree to comply with these Legal Terms; (4) you are at least 18 years old and are not a minor in the jurisdiction in which you reside; (5) you will not access the Services through automated or non-human means, whether through a bot, script, or otherwise; (6) you will not use the Services for any illegal or unauthorized purpose; and (7) your use of the Services will not violate any applicable law or regulation.

If you provide any information that is untrue, inaccurate, not current, or incomplete, we have the right to suspend or terminate your account and refuse any and all current or future use of the Services (or any portion thereof).

6. Purchases and Payment

Certain features, including the ability to send Coffeemate invitations, require a paid subscription (Dakka Premium). Subscriptions are sold and processed through the Apple App Store or, where applicable, the Google Play Store, and your purchase is subject to that store's terms as well as these Legal Terms. We do not receive or store your payment card details.

Prices are shown in the App before you purchase and are charged in the currency of your store account. Subscriptions renew automatically for the same term unless you cancel, and your store account is charged at the start of each renewal period. We may change prices at any time; a change takes effect at your next renewal and, where the law requires it, we will give you notice and the chance to cancel first.

We reserve the right to correct any errors or mistakes in pricing, and to refuse, limit, or cancel any order, in our sole discretion.

7. Cancellation

You can cancel at any time. On Apple devices, cancel by opening your Apple ID subscription settings and turning off automatic renewal. On Google devices, cancel in your Google account subscription settings. Please do this at least 24 hours before your renewal date to ensure Apple or Google has enough time to process it. Your cancellation takes effect at the end of the current paid term, and you keep access until then.

Purchases are non-refundable except where required by law. Because payment is handled by the app stores, any refund request must be made to Apple or Google, and is decided under their policies. Deleting your Dakka account does not cancel your subscription — cancel it through the store as described above.

If you are unsatisfied with our Services, please email us at hello@dakka.app.

8. Software

We may include software for use in connection with our Services. If such software is accompanied by an end user license agreement ("EULA"), the terms of the EULA will govern your use of the software. If such software is not accompanied by a EULA, then we grant to you a non-exclusive, revocable, personal, and non-transferable license to use such software solely in connection with our services and in accordance with these Legal Terms. Any software and any related documentation is provided "AS IS" without warranty of any kind, either express or implied, including, without limitation, the implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, or non-infringement. You accept any and all risk arising out of use or performance of any software. You may not reproduce or redistribute any software except in accordance with the EULA or these Legal Terms.

9. Prohibited Activities

You may not access or use the Services for any purpose other than that for which we make the Services available. The Services may not be used in connection with any commercial endeavors except those that are specifically endorsed or approved by us.

As a user of the Services, you agree not to:

10. User Generated Contributions

The Services allow you to submit content, including your display name and profile picture, cafe suggestions and corrections, notes about cafes, coffee tracker entries and any photos synced with them, your Coffeemate profile answers and status line, and reports about other users (collectively, "Contributions").

By submitting any Contribution, you represent and warrant that: (1) you own it or have all necessary rights and permissions to submit it and to grant us the license in section 11; (2) it does not infringe the intellectual property, privacy, or publicity rights of any third party; (3) it does not contain the personal information of another person without their consent; (4) it is not false, misleading, defamatory, obscene, harassing, hateful, threatening, or otherwise unlawful; and (5) it complies with these Legal Terms.

We are not obliged to monitor Contributions, but we may review, edit, refuse, or remove any Contribution at any time and for any reason, without notice. Any use of the Services in breach of this section may result in termination of your access.

11. Contribution License

You retain ownership of your Contributions. By submitting a Contribution you grant us a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free, sublicensable, transferable license to host, store, reproduce, modify (for formatting and technical purposes), display, and distribute it, solely to the extent necessary to operate, provide, and improve the Services.

For your profile picture and display name, this license includes displaying them publicly within the Services and serving them from a publicly accessible URL, as described in section 4.

For cafe suggestions, corrections, notes, and reports, this license also allows us to use the information to build and correct our cafe database and to operate our safety processes, including after you delete your account. Where we publish information derived from a suggestion or note, it is published as cafe information and is not attributed to you.

For your coffee tracker entries and synced photos and your Coffeemate profile, this license is limited to storing and syncing them for you and showing them to you and, in the case of the Coffeemate profile information listed in section 12, to the people you are matched with. We do not publish them, and we do not use them for advertising.

This license ends when you delete the relevant Contribution or your account, except for the cafe database and safety uses described above and for copies retained in routine backups until they are overwritten.

12. Coffeemate and In-Person Coffee Chats

Coffeemate is optional and you must opt in to use it. It matches you with another Dakka user so that the two of you can meet for a coffee at a cafe. If you opt in, the following are shown to the people you are matched with: your display name and profile picture, your age (calculated from your date of birth), your gender, your one-line status, the time slots you have said you are available for, and a summary of your coffee preferences drawn from your tracker.

Matching is currently performed manually by our team and is offered on a best-efforts basis. We do not guarantee that you will be matched, that any match is suitable, or that any invitation will be accepted. Sending an invitation requires an active Dakka Premium subscription; receiving and accepting one does not.

Coffeemate has no messaging. An invitation contains a fixed time and cafe, and the other person accepts or declines it.

WE DO NOT CONDUCT BACKGROUND CHECKS OR IDENTITY VERIFICATION ON USERS. We do not verify that another user is who they say they are, that their age, gender, name, or photo are genuine, or that they are safe to meet. You are solely responsible for your interactions with other users, online and in person.

Coffeemate is for a friendly coffee. It is not a dating or introduction service, and it must not be used to solicit romantic or sexual encounters, to sell anything, or to recruit. If you choose to meet another user, you do so entirely at your own risk. We strongly recommend that you meet only in the public cafe that was agreed, that you travel there and home independently, that you tell someone you trust where you are going and when, and that you leave immediately if you feel uncomfortable. Never share your home address, financial details, or identity documents with a match, and never send anyone money.

If another user behaves inappropriately, please report them in the App and, where the situation warrants it, contact the local authorities. We review reports by hand and may suspend or remove accounts, but we are under no obligation to become involved in any dispute between users. TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, WE DISCLAIM ALL LIABILITY FOR THE CONDUCT OF ANY USER, ONLINE OR OFFLINE, INCLUDING ANY LOSS, INJURY, HARASSMENT, OR DAMAGE ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH A COFFEE CHAT OR ANY OTHER MEETING ARRANGED THROUGH THE SERVICES.

Cafes shown in the Services are independent businesses that are not affiliated with us and have not endorsed or arranged your meeting.

You may leave Coffeemate at any time in the App.

13. Coffee Tracker and Your Content

The coffee tracker lets you record the coffees you drink, including the drink, price, rating, location, and a photo. Photos you attach are saved in your own iCloud, in a container that only you and Apple can access. So that your tracker can be restored on another device, a copy of the photo and of the sticker image generated from it is also stored on our image hosting provider and linked to your account. Your tracker entries and photos are private to you and are not shown to other users; only a general summary of your preferences is shared, and only if you opt in to Coffeemate (see section 12).

Your coffee tracker, bookmarks, and notes are synced so they survive a reinstall or a new device. We provide this as a convenience and not as a backup service. You are responsible for keeping your own copies of anything you cannot afford to lose, and we do not guarantee that any content will be preserved, available, or free from loss or corruption.

Deleting an entry in the App removes it across your devices. Deleting your account removes your synced entries and the copies of their photos stored by us; photos in your iCloud remain yours and must be removed through your device or iCloud settings.

14. Privacy Policy

We care about data privacy and security. Please review our Privacy Policy: https://dakka.app/privacy. By using the Services, you agree to be bound by our Privacy Policy, which is incorporated into these Legal Terms. Please be advised the Services are hosted in Hong Kong. If you access the Services from any other region of the world with laws or other requirements governing personal data collection, use, or disclosure that differ from applicable laws in Hong Kong, then through your continued use of the Services, you are transferring your data to Hong Kong, and you expressly consent to have your data transferred to and processed in Hong Kong.

You acknowledge in particular that, as described in the Privacy Policy, your profile picture and display name are publicly viewable, and that once you sign in your in-app activity is recorded against your account rather than anonymously.

15. Term and Termination

These Legal Terms shall remain in full force and effect while you use the Services. WITHOUT LIMITING ANY OTHER PROVISION OF THESE LEGAL TERMS, WE RESERVE THE RIGHT TO, IN OUR SOLE DISCRETION AND WITHOUT NOTICE OR LIABILITY, DENY ACCESS TO AND USE OF THE SERVICES (INCLUDING BLOCKING CERTAIN IP ADDRESSES), TO ANY PERSON FOR ANY REASON OR FOR NO REASON, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION FOR BREACH OF ANY REPRESENTATION, WARRANTY, OR COVENANT CONTAINED IN THESE LEGAL TERMS OR OF ANY APPLICABLE LAW OR REGULATION. WE MAY TERMINATE YOUR USE OR PARTICIPATION IN THE SERVICES OR DELETE YOUR ACCOUNT AND ANY CONTENT OR INFORMATION THAT YOU POSTED AT ANY TIME, WITHOUT WARNING, IN OUR SOLE DISCRETION.

If we terminate or suspend your account for any reason, you are prohibited from registering and creating a new account under your name, a fake or borrowed name, or the name of any third party, even if you may be acting on behalf of the third party. In addition to terminating or suspending your account, we reserve the right to take appropriate legal action, including without limitation pursuing civil, criminal, and injunctive redress.

Deleting your account. You may delete your account at any time from within the App, or by emailing us at hello@dakka.app from the address on your account. Deletion removes your profile, profile picture, bookmarks, synced coffee tracker entries and their synced photos, and Coffeemate profile, as described in our Privacy Policy. Some records, including safety reports and records of arranged coffee chats, may be retained where we are required or permitted to keep them. Deleting your account does not cancel any subscription — see section 7 — and deleting the App from your device does not delete your account.

16. Modifications and Interruptions

We reserve the right to change, modify, or remove the contents of the Services at any time or for any reason at our sole discretion without notice, and we have no obligation to update any information on the Services. We also reserve the right to modify or discontinue all or part of the Services, including any feature described in these Legal Terms, without notice at any time. We will not be liable to you or any third party for any modification, price change, suspension, or discontinuance of the Services.

We cannot guarantee the Services will be available at all times. We may experience hardware, software, or other problems, or need to perform maintenance, resulting in interruptions, delays, or errors. You agree that we have no liability whatsoever for any loss, damage, or inconvenience caused by your inability to access or use the Services during any downtime or discontinuance.

17. Disclaimer

THE SERVICES ARE PROVIDED ON AN AS-IS AND AS-AVAILABLE BASIS. YOU AGREE THAT YOUR USE OF THE SERVICES WILL BE AT YOUR SOLE RISK. TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, WE DISCLAIM ALL WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, IN CONNECTION WITH THE SERVICES AND YOUR USE THEREOF, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT. WE MAKE NO WARRANTIES OR REPRESENTATIONS ABOUT THE ACCURACY OR COMPLETENESS OF THE SERVICES' CONTENT OR THE CONTENT OF ANY WEBSITES OR MOBILE APPLICATIONS LINKED TO THE SERVICES AND WE WILL ASSUME NO LIABILITY OR RESPONSIBILITY FOR ANY (1) ERRORS, MISTAKES, OR INACCURACIES OF CONTENT AND MATERIALS, (2) PERSONAL INJURY OR PROPERTY DAMAGE, OF ANY NATURE WHATSOEVER, RESULTING FROM YOUR ACCESS TO AND USE OF THE SERVICES, (3) ANY UNAUTHORIZED ACCESS TO OR USE OF OUR SECURE SERVERS AND/OR ANY AND ALL PERSONAL INFORMATION AND/OR FINANCIAL INFORMATION STORED THEREIN, (4) ANY INTERRUPTION OR CESSATION OF TRANSMISSION TO OR FROM THE SERVICES, (5) ANY BUGS, VIRUSES, TROJAN HORSES, OR THE LIKE WHICH MAY BE TRANSMITTED TO OR THROUGH THE SERVICES BY ANY THIRD PARTY, (6) ANY ERRORS OR OMISSIONS IN ANY CONTENT AND MATERIALS OR FOR ANY LOSS OR DAMAGE OF ANY KIND INCURRED AS A RESULT OF THE USE OF ANY CONTENT POSTED, TRANSMITTED, OR OTHERWISE MADE AVAILABLE VIA THE SERVICES, AND/OR (7) THE CONDUCT, WHETHER ONLINE OR OFFLINE, OF ANY USER OF THE SERVICES, INCLUDING AT ANY MEETING ARRANGED THROUGH COFFEEMATE. WE DO NOT WARRANT, ENDORSE, GUARANTEE, OR ASSUME RESPONSIBILITY FOR ANY PRODUCT OR SERVICE ADVERTISED OR OFFERED BY A THIRD PARTY THROUGH THE SERVICES, ANY HYPERLINKED WEBSITE, OR ANY WEBSITE OR MOBILE APPLICATION FEATURED IN ANY BANNER OR OTHER ADVERTISING, AND WE WILL NOT BE A PARTY TO OR IN ANY WAY BE RESPONSIBLE FOR MONITORING ANY TRANSACTION BETWEEN YOU AND ANY THIRD-PARTY PROVIDERS OF PRODUCTS OR SERVICES. AS WITH THE PURCHASE OF A PRODUCT OR SERVICE THROUGH ANY MEDIUM OR IN ANY ENVIRONMENT, YOU SHOULD USE YOUR BEST JUDGMENT AND EXERCISE CAUTION WHERE APPROPRIATE.

Nothing in these Legal Terms excludes or limits any liability that cannot lawfully be excluded or limited, including liability for death or personal injury caused by our negligence or for fraud.

18. Limitations of Liability

IN NO EVENT WILL WE OR OUR DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES, OR AGENTS BE LIABLE TO YOU OR ANY THIRD PARTY FOR ANY DIRECT, INDIRECT, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, INCLUDING LOST PROFIT, LOST REVENUE, LOSS OF DATA, OR OTHER DAMAGES ARISING FROM YOUR USE OF THE SERVICES, EVEN IF WE HAVE BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. IN ANY EVENT, OUR TOTAL LIABILITY TO YOU FOR ALL CLAIMS ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THE SERVICES WILL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF THE AMOUNT YOU PAID US IN THE TWELVE MONTHS BEFORE THE CLAIM AROSE, OR HKD 1,000.

19. Indemnification

You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold us harmless, including our subsidiaries, affiliates, and all of our respective officers, agents, partners, and employees, from and against any loss, damage, liability, claim, or demand, including reasonable legal fees and expenses, made by any third party due to or arising out of: (1) your Contributions, including any profile picture you upload; (2) your use of the Services; (3) your breach of these Legal Terms; (4) any breach of your representations and warranties set out in these Legal Terms; (5) your violation of the rights of a third party, including intellectual property and privacy rights; or (6) any harmful act toward another user of the Services, including at any meeting arranged through Coffeemate.

20. Governing Law and Dispute Resolution

These Legal Terms are governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region, without regard to its conflict of law principles. You and we agree to submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of Hong Kong, except that if you are a consumer resident elsewhere, you may also have the right to bring proceedings in the courts of your country of residence, and nothing in these Legal Terms removes any mandatory consumer protection you have under local law.

Before bringing any claim, please contact us at hello@dakka.app so we can try to resolve the matter informally.

21. Apple App Store Terms

The following applies where you obtained the App from the Apple App Store. These Legal Terms are between you and us only, not with Apple, and Apple is not responsible for the App or its content. Apple has no obligation to provide any maintenance or support for the App. If the App fails to conform to any applicable warranty, you may notify Apple and Apple will refund the purchase price (if any); to the maximum extent permitted by law, Apple has no other warranty obligation with respect to the App. Apple is not responsible for addressing any claim by you or a third party relating to the App, including product liability, any failure to conform to legal or regulatory requirements, or any claim that the App infringes a third party's intellectual property rights. You represent that you are not located in a country subject to a US Government embargo or designated as a "terrorist supporting" country, and that you are not on any US Government list of prohibited or restricted parties. Apple and its subsidiaries are third-party beneficiaries of these Legal Terms and may enforce them against you.

22. Miscellaneous

These Legal Terms and any policies or operating rules posted by us on the Services constitute the entire agreement and understanding between you and us. Our failure to exercise or enforce any right or provision of these Legal Terms shall not operate as a waiver of such right or provision. If any provision or part of a provision of these Legal Terms is determined to be unlawful, void, or unenforceable, that provision or part is deemed severable and does not affect the validity and enforceability of any remaining provisions. There is no joint venture, partnership, employment, or agency relationship created between you and us as a result of these Legal Terms or use of the Services. You may not assign these Legal Terms; we may assign them to an affiliate or in connection with a merger or sale of our business. You agree that these Legal Terms will not be construed against us by virtue of having drafted them.

You agree to receive electronic communications from us, and agree that all agreements, notices, disclosures, and other communications we provide to you electronically satisfy any legal requirement that such communication be in writing.
