2.2 Use of the app also requires registration as a user and the creation of a free user account. 

2.3 In the course of the registration process, reev collects personal data such as your name and your contact details (i.e. your valid residential address, a telephone number for queries as well as an e-mail address, for the use thereof). 

2.4 In order for the App to be used to make use of fee-based charging offers of a Partner CPO, the User must first grant the Partner CPO(s) a SEPA direct debit mandate (where applicable, specifying a billing address differing from the residential address). For this purpose, valid bank details (bank, IBAN, BIC) must be provided.

2.6 The registration process is completed upon approval of the user account by reev. There is no entitlement to registration. reev reserves the right to refuse approval of the user account in individual cases without stating reasons.  

2.7 The User must keep the access credentials to their user account protected from access by third parties and ensure that the access credentials do not become known to any third party. The User shall be deemed responsible for the actions and legal transactions carried out via their user account, unless (i) it was apparent to reev that a person other than the User was acting or (ii) the User can prove misuse of their access credentials through no fault of their own.  

3. Deletion and Blocking of the User Account

3.1 The User may have their user account deleted at any time.

3.2 In the event of suspected misuse of the App by a User, reev is entitled at any time to block the user account concerned. 

4. Basic Functions of the App

4.1 The App assists the User in making use of charging offers of Partner CPOs activated by the User in accordance with Clause 4.3 (“activated CPOs”). With the aid of the App, Users can in particular 

  • locate charging stations of activated CPOs in the User’s vicinity on an overview map, 
  • identify charging stations of all Partner CPOs via a QR code or via reference numbers, 
  • view the commercial terms applicable at the charging stations of the activated CPOs, and 
  • activate and control charging processes at charging stations of an activated CPO. 


4.2 The App provides Users at all times with transparency regarding the charging volume used with an activated CPO (charging duration, charging time, amount of energy consumed, applicable price per kWh, etc.). 

4.3 In order to be able to use the App to make use of the charging offers of a Partner CPO, the User must enable the Partner CPO for their user account. This is done by activating the Partner CPO in the user account and requires:  

  • The entry of an activation code provided to the User by the respective Partner CPO. The activation code is provided by the Partner CPO  after the latter has agreed with the User, as its customer, the terms and conditions governing the use of its charging offer. 
  • The granting of a SEPA direct debit mandate in favour of the respective Partner CPO; this takes place within the App and is transmitted by reev to the respective Partner CPO (or its payment service provider) as the party authorised to collect payment in the course of a successful activation. 


4.4 For the avoidance of doubt, it is pointed out that all contracts concerning the use of the charging station are concluded exclusively between the User and an activated CPO. The prices and payment terms applicable to an activated CPO or to a charging station are governed exclusively by the provisions of the contract between the User and the respective CPO. This also applies where prices or other commercial terms for the use of the charging station are displayed to the User within the App. As provider of the App, reev neither offers the User any use of the charging station of its own, nor does reev provide charging infrastructure or charging capacities.  

5. Special Functions

5.1 Charge Company Car at Home for privately used company cars 

5.1.1 The special function Charge Company Car at Home is aimed at managing directors or employees of a Partner CPO or of a business customer of reev who are provided with a company car which they may also use privately, and to whom this Partner CPO or business customer (hereinafter also the “Employer”) offers the possibility of charging their company car at home via their private electricity connection at the Employer’s expense (hereinafter the “Charge Company Car at Home Service”). 

5.1.2 The App assists the User in making use of the corresponding Charge Company Car at Home Services of the Employer. With the aid of the App, Users can in particular

  • register their private charging station (provided it meets the technical requirements set out in Clause 5.1.3) for charging processes of their company car that can be activated and controlled via the App in accordance with Clause 5.1.4, 
  • store the commercial terms (tariff information) of their corresponding private electricity connection for the purposes of automated reimbursement of costs by the Employer and view them at any time, 
  • activate and control charging processes of their company car at the registered private charging station (provided it meets the technical requirements mentioned above), and 
  • view the charging volume used at the registered charging station (charging duration, charging time, amount of energy consumed, stored price [per kWh], etc.). 

 

5.1.3 To activate the special function Charge Company Car at Home, the User requires a private charging station compatible with reev which meets the following requirements: 

  • The private charging station is capable of establishing and maintaining a connection to reev. This can be done either via the built-in mobile network connection or via standard internet access.  
  • The charging station is registered with reev and linked to the User’s user account. In addition, the Employer must have confirmed the private charging station for use for Charge Company Car at Home.  
  • The private charging station is configured in such a way that authentication via RFID card or smartphone is required in order to start a charging process. 


5.1.4 In order to be able to use the App to make use of the Charge Company Car at Home Service of the respective Employer, the User must register their private charging station (which meets the technical requirements mentioned above) in the App for charging processes of their company car. For this purpose, the employee must specify the relevant commercial terms of the private electricity tariff applicable to their private charging station, in particular the electricity price and any time-based tariff intervals. Before the private charging station can be registered, the Employer must confirm these terms to reev. Changes to the commercial terms require renewed confirmation by the Employer.  

5.1.5 The User has no entitlement to registration of a private charging station for the special function Charge Company Car at Home. reev reserves the right to refuse registration in individual cases without stating reasons.  

5.1.6 For the avoidance of doubt, it is pointed out that all agreements and modalities of cost reimbursement are governed exclusively in the relationship between the User and the respective Employer. As provider of the App, reev merely offers the User automated transmission of the billing-relevant data to the Employer. Naturally, the supply of electricity itself also remains exclusively a matter between the User and their electricity supplier. As provider of the App, reev neither offers the User any electricity supplies of its own, nor does reev provide charging infrastructure or charging capacities.  

5.2 Smart Charging 

5.2.1 If an activated CPO has activated the function for optimising charging processes by means of time-controlled adjustment of the charging behaviour (hereinafter “Smart Charging”) for one or more of its charging stations, the User may use this function via the App. Its use requires that the User establishes a connection to their vehicle via the App so that the battery state of charge can be recorded automatically.

5.2.2 In addition, the User can store their desired departure time as well as the desired state of charge of the vehicle battery via the App. 

5.2.3 The information recorded and stored in the context of Smart Charging in accordance with Clauses 5.2.1 and 5.2.2 serves to optimise charging processes in order to reduce energy costs and CO emissions. Optimisation takes place within the scope of the technical possibilities; no specific optimisation result is owed.
