Terms of Service

HEYLIM is one global service operated by local HEYLIM entities. These Terms apply worldwide. The entity you contract with when you purchase from a HEYLIM location — together with the law, currency, taxes, payment methods, and payment processor that attach to that purchase — is identified in the Country-specific provisions at the end of these Terms. Those provisions state, for each market, when they apply; they supplement these Terms and prevail over them for the matters they address.

In these Terms, the website heylim.com is referred to as “the Website”, the HEYLIM mobile applications for iOS and Android are collectively referred to as “the Mobile Application”, and the Website and the Mobile Application together are “the Services”.

1. Use of Our Services

1.1 In these Terms, “HEYLIM Coffee”, “HEYLIM”, “we”, “us”, and “our” refer to the HEYLIM entity operating in the relevant market, as identified in the Country-specific provisions, together with its owners and operators. HEYLIM Coffee is committed to protecting the privacy of personal information you provide to us on the Services. We believe it is important for you to know how we treat information you share with us. These Terms of Service (“Terms”) govern your use of the Services and their features.

1.2 HEYLIM Coffee may update these Terms and the information and services contained in the Services from time to time. Changes never apply retroactively: an order is governed by the Terms in effect when you placed it. Where a change adversely affects your rights, we will announce it in the Services with reasonable advance notice before it takes effect.

1.3 Your continued use of the Services after a change takes effect constitutes your acceptance of the modified Terms; if you do not accept them, you should stop using the Services.

2. Access to the Services

2.1 Interacting with the Services implies use of the necessary server and network infrastructure.

2.2 HEYLIM Coffee hereby grants you permission to use the Services, subject to the following conditions:

2.2.1. Your use of the Services as permitted is for your personal, non-commercial use only.

2.2.2. You will not copy or distribute any part of the Services in any medium without obtaining prior written permission from HEYLIM Coffee.

2.2.3. You will not alter or modify any part of the Services other than as may be reasonably necessary to use the Services for their intended purpose.

2.2.4. You will otherwise comply with the terms and conditions of these Terms of Service.

2.3 In order to access some features of the Services, you will have to create an account. You may never use another person’s account without permission. When creating your account, you must provide accurate and complete information. You are solely responsible for the activity that occurs on your account, and you must keep your account password secure. You must notify HEYLIM Coffee immediately of any breach of security or unauthorized use of your account by emailing us at hey@heylim.com. Although HEYLIM Coffee will not be liable for your losses caused by any unauthorized use of your account, you may be liable for the losses of HEYLIM Coffee or others due to such unauthorized use.

2.4 You agree not to use or launch any automated system, including without limitation, “robots,” “spiders,” “offline readers,” etc., that accesses the Services in a manner that sends more request messages to the HEYLIM Coffee servers in a given period of time than a human can reasonably produce in the same period by using a conventional online web browser. Notwithstanding the foregoing, HEYLIM Coffee grants the operators of public search engines permission to use spiders to copy materials from the Services for the sole purpose of creating publicly available searchable indices of the materials, but not caches or archives of such materials. HEYLIM Coffee reserves the right to revoke these exceptions either generally or in specific cases. You agree not to collect or harvest any personally identifiable information, including account names, from the Services, nor to use the communication systems provided by the Services for any commercial solicitation purposes. You agree not to solicit any user of the Services for commercial purposes regarding user-submitted content.

2.5 By using the Services, you affirm that you are at least 18 years old and not a minor under the laws of the market in which you use the Services (see the Country-specific provisions).

3. Placing an Order

3.1 When you place an order through the Services and we confirm it in the Services, a contract for the ordered goods is formed. We hold a payment authorization upon order placement but do not charge your payment method until the goods are dispensed: dispensing is our performance of the contract, and payment is processed only for the items actually provided (see Sections 4.8 and 7.6 for partial fulfillment). You are responsible for paying for all goods successfully provided using your account, and for complying with these Terms of Service, even if you have ordered the goods for someone else. All goods are subject to availability; where we cannot perform, Section 3.4 applies and you are not charged.

3.2 You can place an order to receive goods from a HEYLIM Coffee pillar by:

a) Using the Mobile Application to select a pillar and place an order

b) Scanning the QR code or tapping the NFC on a pillar and completing payment through the opened payment webpage

3.3 Product information for our goods — including the current rotating coffee, its ingredients, and allergen information — is shown in the Services before you commit to your order. The nutrition document published for the market of your purchase forms part of that information.

3.4 Payment and Order Fulfillment: When you place an order, we authorize payment on your chosen payment method but do not immediately charge it. Payment is only processed upon successful preparation of your order. If we cannot fulfill your complete order, you will only be charged for the items we successfully prepare and provide. All goods are subject to availability, and we may decline or cancel an order at any time before dispensing begins — for example where a pillar is out of service or a consumable has run out. In that case no payment is processed, any held authorization is released, any amount already charged is refunded to your original payment method, and we have no further liability to you or to any third party in respect of the declined or cancelled order.

3.5 Safety Compliance: By placing an order, you acknowledge and agree to comply with all safety instructions and product handling requirements set forth in Section 4 (Collection and Safety) of these Terms. Your order is conditional upon your acceptance of these safety requirements, and failure to comply may result in incomplete orders, injury, or damage for which HEYLIM Coffee accepts no liability.

4. Collection and Safety

4.1 You order and pay in the Mobile Application or on the Website, then collect your goods on the spot at the pillar. To start dispensing, you go to the pillar and start the order in the Services — by scanning the pillar’s QR code, tapping its NFC tag, or entering the pillar number shown on it (if you opened the app or payment page by scanning the pillar’s code, the pillar is already selected for you). Your beverage is prepared at the pillar at the moment you start dispensing, so you should be at the pillar when you start the order and collect the beverage promptly once it is ready.

4.2 Unfortunately, despite the best efforts of our pillars, things don’t always go as planned, and factors such as loading or technical glitches can delay preparation. You may cancel any undispensed order free of charge at any time (Section 6.1): the held authorization is released, any amount already charged is refunded to your original payment method, and we will work with you to make things right.

4.3 You will be charged for goods in the event of non-collection if you were the cause of this. Reasons that may lead to non-collection include (but are not limited to) your failure to collect the order.

Safety Requirements

4.4 Safety Distance: For your safety, you must maintain a distance of at least one (1) meter from the coffee pillar during the beverage preparation process. The machine may produce hot steam during operation, which can cause burns or injury if you are standing too close. HEYLIM Coffee shall not be liable for any injuries resulting from failure to maintain the required safety distance.

4.5 Hot Beverage Warning: All beverages dispensed by HEYLIM Coffee pillars are served at high temperatures. Coffee and other hot beverages may cause severe burns if spilled or consumed immediately. You acknowledge and accept full responsibility for handling hot beverages with appropriate care. HEYLIM Coffee recommends allowing beverages to cool before consumption and exercising caution when transporting hot drinks.

4.6 Weighing Scale Restrictions: Each coffee pillar is equipped with precision weighing scales essential for accurate beverage dispensing. You must not touch, press, lean on, or otherwise interfere with the weighing scales at any time during or outside the ordering process. Any contact with the scales may disrupt the dispensing mechanism and compromise the quality or quantity of your order.

4.7 Cup Collection Protocol: You must not touch or remove the cup from the pillar until one of the following conditions is met: (a) the green indicator light on the pillar is illuminated, or (b) the Mobile Application displays a notification confirming that your order is ready for collection. Premature removal or contact with the cup during the dispensing process may result in spillage, burns, or incomplete orders for which HEYLIM Coffee accepts no responsibility.

4.8 Multi-Cup Orders and Interference: An order may contain more than one cup. If the pillar is unable to complete all the cups in your order — for example, it runs out of a consumable or experiences a fault — you will be charged only for the cups actually dispensed to you, and the authorization hold for the undelivered cups will be released to your original payment method. Separately, you must not touch, press, lean on, or otherwise interfere with the weighing scales or the cup while a beverage is being dispensed (see clauses 4.6, 4.7, and 4.10). If you do, dispensing may stop or be disrupted, you accept the resulting outcome (including an incomplete or spilled drink), HEYLIM Coffee is not responsible for it, and you are not entitled to a refund or replacement for any problem caused by your own interference.

4.9 Approved Cup Usage: You are required to use only the cups provided by HEYLIM Coffee pillars for your orders. The use of personal cups, mugs, bottles, containers, or any other vessels not supplied by HEYLIM Coffee is strictly prohibited. This requirement exists because: (a) HEYLIM Coffee pillars are calibrated exclusively for use with proprietary cups; (b) non-standard containers may interfere with the weighing and dispensing mechanisms; (c) personal containers may pose hygiene and food safety concerns; and (d) HEYLIM Coffee cannot guarantee product quality or safety when non-approved containers are used. Any attempt to use personal containers is at your own risk, and HEYLIM Coffee disclaims all liability for spillage, machine malfunction, burns, or other damages resulting from such use.

4.10 Hands-Free Dispensing: You must not hold, touch, or otherwise make contact with the cup while the beverage is being dispensed. The cup must remain stationary on the pillar’s designated placement area throughout the entire dispensing process. Holding or touching the cup during dispensing may result in inaccurate beverage volumes, spillage and potential burns, or damage to the pillar’s sensors and mechanisms. HEYLIM Coffee shall not be responsible for any incomplete orders, injuries, or damages resulting from failure to comply with this hands-free dispensing requirement.

4.11 Parental and Guardian Responsibility: If you permit a minor or any other person under your supervision to use HEYLIM Coffee services or collect beverages on your behalf, you are fully responsible for ensuring their compliance with all safety requirements outlined in this section. You shall be liable for any injuries, damages, or losses resulting from their failure to follow the prescribed safety protocols.

4.12 Safety Compliance Acknowledgment: By collecting your order from a HEYLIM Coffee pillar, you confirm that you have read, understood, and agree to comply with all safety instructions set forth in this section. You accept full responsibility for any injuries, damages, or losses that result from your failure to follow these safety guidelines.

5. If Something Is Wrong with Your Order

5.1 If your order was not dispensed, was the wrong item, was short-poured, or is otherwise not right, tell us through in-app support or by email to hey@heylim.com; complaints are also accepted at the registered address of the HEYLIM entity for your market (see the Country-specific provisions). We may ask for a photo showing the problem if it can be seen by examining the goods.

5.2 Where the goods were defective or not as described, we will, as appropriate:

5.2.1. Replace the affected goods with a fresh pour; or

5.2.2. Refund the value relating to the affected part of the paid goods — or the entire order if the entire order is affected — to your original payment method.

We may also offer a promotional code in addition to a remedy.

5.3 When assessing your complaint, we consider the details of the order, what happened at collection, and the records of the pillar, which logs each dispensing.

5.4 Complaint Period: Because our goods are freshly prepared and perishable, any problem with them is apparent at collection. Complaints about an order must be raised promptly, and in any event within 48 hours of collection; an order not disputed within that period is treated as accepted.

5.5 Issues Caused by Non-Compliance with Safety Requirements: The remedies in this Section 5 are for goods that are defective or that do not conform, and not for problems you cause yourself by not following the safety requirements in Section 4. Where an issue is directly caused by your own non-compliance — for example (a) an incomplete cup resulting from your interference with the weighing scales or the cup; (b) spillage or burns caused by premature cup removal; (c) quality issues arising from use of non-approved containers; or (d) damage or injury resulting from failure to maintain the required safety distance — that issue is not a defect or non-conformity in the goods, and no remedy under this Section 5 applies to it.

6. Cancellation

6.1 You may cancel your order free of charge at any time before dispensing begins — that is, while the order is being placed, paid, or is pending and you have not yet started dispensing at the pillar. You can cancel in the Mobile Application or on the Website, or by contacting us. Because we only hold a payment authorization at order placement and do not charge you until the goods are dispensed, cancelling before dispensing begins means no payment is taken; the held authorization is released back to your original payment method, and where any amount has already been charged it is refunded to that same payment method through our payment processor. Once dispensing has started, the order can no longer be cancelled, as the goods are freshly prepared, perishable, made-to-order items; in that case you are charged for the cups actually dispensed in accordance with Section 4.8 and Section 7.6.

6.2 HEYLIM Coffee may notify you of the cancellation of the order at any time. You will not be charged for any orders canceled by us, and we will reimburse you for any payment already made using the same method you used to pay for your order. We may also give you a promotional code that reflects the inconvenience caused.

6.3 Statutory Withdrawal Rights: The law of some markets grants consumers a withdrawal (“cooling-off”) right — see the Country-specific provisions for your market. That right does not apply to our beverages once dispensing has begun: a beverage prepared to your order is a made-to-order good liable to deteriorate rapidly, and it cannot be returned or exchanged after it has been poured. Until dispensing begins, cancellation is always free under Section 6.1, which gives you more than any cooling-off right could: you simply pay nothing. To exercise a statutory withdrawal right where one applies, contact us via in-app support or hey@heylim.com.

7. Pricing, Payment, and Promotional Offers

7.1 Prices are all-inclusive of the taxes that apply to your purchase, as identified in the Country-specific provisions. You confirm that you are using our service for personal, non-commercial use.

7.2 The total price of your order is shown on the payment page in the Services before you commit to the order. This price is all-inclusive: it is stated in the currency of the market of your purchase, is inclusive of applicable taxes at the rate identified in the Country-specific provisions, and is the amount you will be charged. We do not add any card, payment, or service surcharge on top of the displayed price.

7.3 Payment is cashless and is made online, in-app or on the Website, at the time you place your order. We accept payment by credit or debit card, Apple Pay, and Google Pay through our payment processor. We do not accept cash, cheques, vouchers, or payment on collection or delivery.

7.4 HEYLIM Coffee does not store or transmit account data (cardholder data, sensitive authentication data). Online payments are handled by the payment processor identified for the market of your purchase in the Country-specific provisions; every payment processor we use is PCI-DSS certified.

7.5 Payment method and card types accepted and currency. We accept online payment using the card networks listed for the market of your purchase in the Country-specific provisions, in that market’s local currency.

7.6 Payment Authorization and Settlement: All online payments require pre-authorization of the full order amount. This authorization reserves funds on your payment method but does not constitute an immediate charge. Payment settlement occurs only upon successful order completion. For partial fulfillment scenarios (where only some items from your order are successfully prepared), you will be charged only for the items actually provided, and the remaining authorized amount will be released back to your payment method within 3-5 business days depending on your payment provider’s policies. A record of every order and payment is available in your account in the Services, and we provide proof of purchase for every completed order in accordance with the law of the market of your purchase.

7.7 Saved Payment Methods: The Services provide an option to save your payment card information for streamlined future ordering. When you select “Save Card” or similar option, you consent to and authorize HEYLIM Coffee to store secure payment tokens and the last four digits of your card through our payment processor for your market. You understand and agree that: (a) only the payment processor retains your complete card information in accordance with PCI-DSS security standards; (b) HEYLIM Coffee retains only secure tokens, the last four card digits, card brand, and expiration date; (c) you may manage or delete saved payment methods at any time through your account settings or by contacting us; (d) by using a saved payment method to place an order, you authorize HEYLIM Coffee to charge the order fees to that payment method; (e) you are responsible for maintaining the security of your account and any orders placed using your saved payment methods. If you no longer wish to use the save card feature, you must delete the saved payment methods from your account settings. You agree to notify us immediately if your account security is compromised or if you suspect any unauthorized transactions using your saved payment methods.

12. Law and Jurisdiction

12.1 Where you purchase from a HEYLIM location, that purchase — and any dispute or claim arising out of or in connection with it — is governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the market of that purchase, as identified in the Country-specific provisions. Any other dispute or claim arising out of or in connection with the Services is governed by the laws identified for the relevant market in the Country-specific provisions.

12.2 Before bringing a claim arising out of an order, you agree to first raise the matter through the complaints procedure in Section 5, within the period it sets, so that we have the opportunity to put it right. The courts competent for disputes in each market are identified in the Country-specific provisions.

13. Limitation of Liability

13.1 Liability Cap: Our total liability to you for any claim arising out of or in connection with a purchase from a HEYLIM location — whether in contract, tort, or otherwise — is limited to the price paid for that purchase.

13.2 Excluded Losses: We are not liable for indirect, incidental, special, punitive, or consequential loss, loss of profit, loss of business, loss of data, or loss of time, whether arising from a purchase or from your use of the Services. We are also not responsible for any loss or damage you suffer as a result of your breach of these Terms, or as a result of any failure of any information technology equipment or software other than failure in the Services.

13.3 The Services: The Services are provided on an “as is and as available” basis, and we do not give warranties of merchantability or fitness for a particular purpose with respect to the Services or any information or software contained therein. HEYLIM Coffee is not liable for damages that result from the use of or inability to use the Services, nor for damages that result from mistakes, omissions, interruptions, deletion of files, errors, defects, delays in operation or transmission, or any failure of performance, whether or not caused by events outside of HEYLIM Coffee’s reasonable control, including but not limited to acts of God, communications line failure, theft, destruction, or unauthorized access to our records, programs, or services. This Section 13.3 concerns the Services; remedies for the goods are dealt with in Section 5.

13.4 Safety-Related Liability: HEYLIM Coffee is not liable for loss, injury, damage, or claim that is caused by your failure to comply with the safety requirements set forth in Section 4 of these Terms, including: (a) burns or injuries caused by hot beverages or steam where you did not handle them with appropriate care or maintain the required safety distance; (b) incomplete cups resulting from your interference with pillar equipment; (c) use of non-approved containers; or (d) any other consequence of your breach of the safety protocols established in these Terms. The same applies to loss caused by persons you permit to use your account or supervise (Section 4.11). You acknowledge that the safety requirements are reasonable and necessary for the safe operation of our services, that they are stated in the Services and at the pillar, and that your compliance is a material condition of your use of HEYLIM Coffee services.

13.5 What We Do Not Exclude: We do not exclude or limit our liability for death or personal injury caused by our negligence or by a defect in the goods or equipment, for fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation, or for any liability that the law of the market of your purchase does not allow to be excluded or limited; consumer rights that that law does not allow to be waived remain unaffected. Sections 13.1 through 13.4 apply subject to this Section 13.5.

14. Miscellaneous

14.1 These Terms constitute the entire agreement between you and HEYLIM Coffee. You and HEYLIM Coffee acknowledge and agree not to constitute any partnership, and neither you nor HEYLIM Coffee has the authority or power to bind or obligate the other. We may change these Terms from time to time.

14.2 HEYLIM Coffee’s failure to exercise or enforce any right or provision of this agreement shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision. If any provision of this agreement is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid or unenforceable, the parties nevertheless agree that the court should endeavor to give effect to the parties’ original intentions as reflected in the provision and the other provisions of this agreement remain in full force and effect.

14.3 No software may be downloaded, exported, or re-exported from the Services in a way that violates applicable law. Downloading software or using it is at your sole risk.

14.4 The failure of HEYLIM Coffee to comply with these Terms because of an act of God, war, fire, riot, terrorism, earthquake, actions of federal, state, or local governmental authorities, or for any other reason beyond the reasonable control of HEYLIM Coffee, shall not be deemed a breach of these Terms. If HEYLIM Coffee fails to act with respect to your or someone else’s breach on any occasion, HEYLIM Coffee is not waiving its right to act with respect to future or similar breaches.

14.5 The headings in these Terms are for your convenience and reference. These headings do not limit or affect these Terms.

14.6 If any provision of these Terms of Service is illegal, void, or for any reason unenforceable, that provision shall be deemed severable.

15. Special Provisions Related to Mobile App and Coffee Pillars

15.1 Mobile App Access: The Mobile Application is designed to enhance your coffee ordering experience. By downloading and using the app, you agree to these Terms of Service in their entirety.

15.2 Coffee Pillars: HEYLIM Coffee pillars are automated coffee dispensing machines located in our operating markets. When using these machines, you must comply with all safety requirements set forth in Section 4 (Collection and Safety) of these Terms, including but not limited to maintaining the required safety distance, using only approved cups, and refraining from touching the weighing scales or cup during dispensing. HEYLIM Coffee is not responsible for damages arising from improper use of the pillars or failure to comply with safety protocols.

15.3 QR Code and NFC Usage: When using the QR code scanning or NFC tapping features to identify coffee pillars, you agree to use these features only for their intended purpose of connecting to and ordering from HEYLIM Coffee pillars.

15.4 Alternative Pillar Access: If you are unable or unwilling to use QR code scanning or NFC capabilities, you may manually enter the pillar number displayed on each coffee pillar to place an order.

15.5 Geolocation Services: The app provides geolocation services to help you find nearby coffee pillars. This feature requires your permission to access your device’s location services. You may disable this permission at any time through your device settings, though this will limit the functionality of location-based features.

15.6 Payment Processing: All payments are processed through secure third-party payment processors. HEYLIM Coffee does not store your complete payment information. By using our service, you agree to the terms and conditions of our payment processing partners.

15.7 Service Availability: HEYLIM Coffee makes no guarantees regarding the continuous availability of the Mobile Application or coffee pillars. Service may be temporarily unavailable due to maintenance, technical issues, or factors beyond our control.

15.8 Product Availability: The coffee served at our pillars rotates, and products may vary by location and are subject to availability. We may change the rotating coffee or the product lineup; an order you have already placed is either fulfilled as placed or not charged and refunded (Sections 3.4 and 6.2).

15.9 User Conduct: Users must treat the coffee pillars with care and follow all instructions for proper use. Vandalism, tampering with, or misuse of the pillars is strictly prohibited and may result in legal action.

15.10 Account Termination: HEYLIM Coffee may suspend or terminate your account for a material violation of these Terms of Service, for fraud or misuse of the Services or pillars, where required by law, or where we discontinue the Services in your market — with prior notice where the law of your market requires it. Termination does not affect your rights in relation to goods already paid for: any held authorization for undispensed goods is released and any amount charged for goods not provided is refunded. You may request deletion of your account by contacting in-app support.
