INDEEZ is registered in the French ORIAS Register under number 20006983 as an insurance intermediary to operate in France and, under the freedom to provide services, in the European Union ("INDEEZ" or the "Company").

INDEEZ is listed on the financial services register (register.fca.org.uk) and its FCA registration number is 978039.
INDEEZ can be contacted at the following email address : contact@indeez.eu.
2. Scope of Services
INDEEZ is an insurtech company specializing in the protection of independent workers, green mobility and bancassurance.
In this context, the Company operates a platform offering various on-line insurance, services and benefits programs (the "Platform"), through which designated beneficiaries (the "Users") can subscribe to, or benefit from (through INDEEZ' partner clients (the "Clients")), said programs (together the "Services").
The Users are :
  • - any individual with a contractual relationship with a Client (employee, independent worker using its services, customer, etc.) to whom the Client has proposed access to the Services;
  • - or any other individual authorized by INDEEZ.
These terms of use (the "Terms of Use") grant the Users a personal license allowing them to access the Services.
3. Access to Services
To access the Services, the User must fill in the designated form on the Platform and, when required, select the relevant Client by providing the individual identification number provided by the Client.
The User must provide all information marked as mandatory.
Registration automatically results in the opening of an account in the User's name (the "Account"), allowing the User to access the Services using their username (email address provided during Account creation) and password.
Alternatively, when the User subscribes to a product sold online by INDEEZ (on its Platform or through a dedicated customer journey) and has not previously created an Account, the User provides the necessary information to create an Account during the purchase process. The User’s Account will be automatically created by INDEEZ upon completion of the product subscription so that the User can access the Services.
4. Services description
The Users can review the features of the Services directly on the Platform.
Once the User's Account is created, the User has access to an interface displaying the various Services they can benefit from, whether preselected by a Client or made available by INDEEZ, and organized into modules (the "Modules").
The Modules are sourced by INDEEZ with various partners, either for insurance Services (the "Insurers") or for any other Service (the "Partners"). INDEEZ acts only as an intermediary in the relationships established between Users and Insurers / Partners, as the Services are provided directly by the Insurer or the Partner, as applicable, which the User acknowledges.
When the Services are subscribed by the Client for the benefit of eligible Users, the Services are selected by the Client, who also sets their terms and content, at the sole discretion of the Client. The Client can at any time request the removal or addition of Modules and Services and/or modify their access conditions for the User.
The Modules include the following, with the specific terms for each Module being provided directly to the User by the relevant Insurer or Partner and tailored to the particular Service.
1) Insurance Policies
This "Insurance Policies" Module includes 2 types of insurance products :
(i) collective insurance policies subscribed by a Client from an Insurer : eligible Users as designated by the Client are then direct beneficiaries of the product;
(ii) individual insurance policies subscribed by a User for their own benefit from an Insurer;
(collectively, the "Insurance Policies").
The main Services associated with this Module are as follows :
(i) for individual insurance only : subscribing to an insurance policy with the Insurer selected by the Client, the cost of which is directly paid by the User. In this case, the User enters into a contract with the Insurer, which terms and conditions are provided to the User in accordance with legal requirements (pre-contractual and contractual information);
(ii) access to the Insurance Policies’ dashboard (active and terminated) and the contractual and pre-contractual documents applicable for such Insurance Policies;
(iii) submission and tracking of claims related to the Insurance Policies (the "Claims"); and
(iv) any other service such as a dedicated information page about the Insurance Policy, frequently asked questions (FAQ), etc.
2) Deals & Discounts
This "Deals & Discounts" Module allows eligible Users (either designated by a Client or who subscribed directly to the Module) to benefit from online deals and discounts offers from Partners.
INDEEZ reserves the right to contract with the Partners of its choice for the sourcing and management of the "Deals & Discounts" Module. In this case, the User must also contract directly with the Partner to benefit from the Module.
INDEEZ reserves the possibility to source any other Service it deems useful, in the form and with the functionalities and technical means that INDEEZ considers most appropriate to provide said Services.
5. Coordination with Terms and Conditions of Payment Service Providers
All payments made through the Platform are managed by the payment service provider indicated on the Platform (the "Payment Service Provider").
The User will contract directly with the Payment Service Provider in order to make these payments, accepting its terms and conditions through a checkbox on the Platform.
6. Duration and Termination of Services
The User has access to the Platform from the creation of their Account until its deletion at their initiative or INDEEZ's initiative following these Terms of Use (the "Account Duration").
The User may have access to one or more Services, which may vary during the Account Duration depending on the Services subscribed by the Client for the User's benefit or by the User directly. Therefore, the User has access to the various Services for the duration subscribed by the Client or themselves.
When the Services are subscribed by the Client for the benefit of eligible Users, the User acknowledges and accepts that if the Client terminates its contract with INDEEZ or the Insurer / Partner, they will no longer have access to the Services associated with that contract. However, they can continue to access their Account and other Services subscribed (by a Client or by themselves) if applicable. If an Insurance Policy is terminated for any reason, the User can access their Account to submit a Claim following the terms of the Insurance Policy.
When the Services are subscribed by the User individually, the User acknowledges that the duration of said Service is the one they subscribed to directly with the Insurer or the Partner.
The User can request the deletion of their Account at any time by contacting INDEEZ at the following email address : support@indeez.eu. INDEEZ will proceed to the deletion of the Account within five working days, provided that the Services have ended and unless a law or regulation is preventing it (in which case INDEEZ will inform the User). Upon deletion of their Account, the User will no longer be able to access the Services.
The User's Account may also be automatically deactivated by INDEEZ by application of the data retention periods prescribed by regulations (including the General Data Protection Regulation or GDPR) and INDEEZ' Privacy Policy. The User will no longer be able to access the Services from the date of deactivation.
Exceptionally, the User can continue to use the Services by subscribing to them directly on the Platform (where possible) by contacting INDEEZ at the email address indicated in the "Company Identification" section.
7. Fees
The Platform is accessible for free.
When the Services are subscribed by the Client for the benefit of eligible Users, such Users have free access to the relevant Services.
When the Services are subscribed by the User individually, the price of any Module(s) selected by the User, including individual Insurance Policies, is indicated on the Platform.
