Date of last update: 09/06/2025
These Terms of Use (hereinafter the “TOU”) govern the access to and use of the Geny mobile and web Application (hereinafter the “Application”) published by the simplified joint-stock company (SAS) SIMPLY STUPID SOFTWARE (hereinafter “SIMPLY STUPID SOFTWARE” or “We”).
These TOU, together with our Legal Notice, our Privacy Policy, and any other specific terms or conditions that may be published on the Application, form the entire contractual agreement (the “Agreement”) between the User and SIMPLY STUPID SOFTWARE governing the access to and use of the Application. This Agreement cancels and replaces all prior or contemporaneous agreements, negotiations, and communications between the parties, whether oral or written, concerning the same subject matter.
Prior to any use of the Application, the User is invited to carefully read these TOU.
The use of the Application and access to its features, including the creation of a User account or the generation of a Travel Project, are strictly subject to the prior, explicit, full, and entire acceptance of these TOU by the User.
This acceptance is materialized by the User actively checking the box indicating “I have read and accept the Terms of Use” presented during the account creation process and before generating a Travel Project.
By checking this box, the User acknowledges having had the opportunity to read, having understood, and accepting without reservation all the provisions of these TOU, which form a contract between the User and SIMPLY STUPID SOFTWARE.
If you do not accept these TOU, you must not check the acceptance box and you must not use the Application.
1. DEFINITIONS
For the purposes of these TOU, the following terms shall have the meanings ascribed to them below:
- Application: refers to the Geny mobile and web application published by the company SIMPLY STUPID SOFTWARE, accessible in particular via the website www.geny-planner.com.
- User: refers to any natural or legal person accessing and/or using the Application.
- User-Provided Content: refers to all data, information, or textual content (such as chosen destinations, travel dates, expressed preferences, comments, or texts entered in free-text fields) that the User enters, submits, or actively provides when using the Application.
- Travel Project: refers to all digital content and tools generated by the Application for a given destination and dates, provided to the User as a suggestion and in response to the information they have provided. It includes a modifiable planning proposal with activity suggestions, as well as, potentially, accommodation and transport proposals, practical tools such as a weather forecast or a currency converter, suggestions for useful items, and descriptive content that may include AI-generated texts and images. Within the Application’s interface, the Travel Project may be simply referred to as the “Trip”.
- Partners: refers to third parties with whom SIMPLY STUPID SOFTWARE has a commercial relationship and who offer activities, accommodation, transport, catering, or products and services, accessible via the Application. The commercial nature of these links is explicitly indicated to the User in the Application by the word “Partner”.
- Third-Party Suggestion: Refers to any recommendation or information concerning an activity, restaurant, place, or service provided for purely informational purposes, for which SIMPLY STUPID SOFTWARE has no commercial relationship.
2. DESCRIPTION OF THE APPLICATION
Geny is not a travel agency, nor a tour operator or retailer within the meaning of Articles L211-1 et seq. of the French Tourism Code.
The Application is a tool to assist in travel planning, allowing the User to generate, through an external artificial intelligence, a personalized Travel Project for purely informational purposes.
Following a questionnaire filled out by the User, the Application generates a Travel Project that serves as a working basis. The User is an active participant in their planning and can freely modify the schedule included in their Travel Project, by deleting elements or choosing others from a list of activity suggestions (paid or free).
This Travel Project, generated by the Application’s artificial intelligence, consists of a modifiable planning proposal with activity suggestions. It may also include, always as a suggestion, accommodation and transport proposals, descriptive content (which may include AI-generated texts and images), practical tools (such as a weather forecast or a currency converter), or suggestions for useful items.
Suggestions within the Application may link to external sites. For commercial offers from “Partners”, a click redirects the User to the relevant Partner’s website. For “Third-Party Suggestions”, a click may redirect the User to an informational site or to Google to allow them to conduct their own research or make a booking.
Geny displays the offers for activities, accommodations, restaurants, and transport available at the time of the User’s query.
SIMPLY STUPID SOFTWARE does not sell any travel services, does not enter into any travel contracts with the User, and does not receive any payment from the User for the suggested services. Bookings and payments are made exclusively on the Partners’ sites, according to their own terms and conditions.
SIMPLY STUPID SOFTWARE does not guarantee any result regarding the suggestions and images provided by the Application’s artificial intelligence.
The Application is available on mobile platforms (iOS and Android) and via a web browser.
It is available in free access (freemium) for Users. A premium version is under development.
3. ACCESS AND USE OF THE APPLICATION
Access to the Application is free and can be done without creating an account.
However, certain features may require the creation of a User account.
3.1 User Account Creation and Management
Users can create a free account by providing an email address, a first name, and a password.
Creating an account via email is subject to validation of the provided address.
Users also have the option to log in via their Google or Apple accounts.
In this case, no email validation is required.
The account identifier is the email address provided by the User.
Passwords must be strong and are chosen by the User under their own responsibility.
To enhance their account’s security, Users are recommended to choose a complex password and to change it regularly.
The User is responsible for the confidentiality of their password and agrees to inform SIMPLY STUPID SOFTWARE without delay of any unauthorized use of their account. SIMPLY STUPID SOFTWARE cannot be held liable for any loss or damage resulting from the failure to comply with this obligation.
The User can delete their account at any time in accordance with Article 10 “Account Deletion”.
It is recalled that deleting the account will result in the loss of access to the history of generated Travel Projects, as specified in Article 10.
SIMPLY STUPID SOFTWARE reserves the right to suspend or terminate a User’s access to their account, under the conditions provided for in Article 10.
3.2 Use of the Application
The User agrees to use the Application in accordance with these TOU and with applicable laws and regulations.
The User is responsible for the quality of the content they may add in the free text fields.
The User has the option to change their language, country, and currency preferences in the Application’s settings.
These preferences are initially inferred from the language of the browser used by the User.
4. FINANCIAL CONDITIONS
The Geny Application is free for Users.
Geny’s business model is based on affiliation with commercial Partners offering activities, accommodation, catering, transport, and travel-related products and services.
When the User clicks on offers and is redirected to the websites of these Partners (including GetYourGuide, Viator, Amazon, and other platforms), SIMPLY STUPID SOFTWARE may receive a commission from them if the User makes a purchase.
This commission is paid by the commercial Partner and does not result in any additional cost for the User.
In accordance with current legislation, links pointing to Partner offers that may generate a commission for SIMPLY STUPID SOFTWARE (affiliate links) are identified within the Application by the explicit mention “Partner” displayed near the link or offer.
Recommendations for activities, accommodation, transport, catering, and other travel services are provided in good faith based on the information available at the time of the User’s query.
However, the User is informed that Geny’s business model is partly based on affiliation with commercial Partners, which may influence the nature of the offers proposed. SIMPLY STUPID SOFTWARE nevertheless strives to provide relevant suggestions for the User.
SIMPLY STUPID SOFTWARE does not add any additional fees to the prices displayed by the Partners at the time of the User’s query.
Advertisements may be displayed on the Application (for example, during loading times) as another source of revenue for Geny.
5. CONTENT AND INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY

The Application’s logo is a protected trademark. The name “Geny” is used as a trade name and the name of the Application, over which SIMPLY STUPID SOFTWARE claims copyright and rights based on its use in commerce.
The company SIMPLY STUPID SOFTWARE holds all intellectual and industrial property rights relating to its brands, logos, names, the Application, its content (with the exception of User-Provided Content as defined below), its design, as well as the software, databases, and processes used for its operation.
Any reproduction, representation, modification, adaptation, distribution, and/or exploitation of all or part of these elements, by any means and on any medium whatsoever, without the prior written authorization of SIMPLY STUPID SOFTWARE, is strictly prohibited and may constitute an infringement.
5.2 Intellectual Property of the Travel Project and Licenses of Use
The User acknowledges and agrees that the Travel Project generated using the Application (including texts and images potentially generated by AI) constitutes a protected work and is the intellectual property of the company SIMPLY STUPID SOFTWARE.

- Print it for personal use during the trip.
- Keep it for archival purposes or personal inspiration for future trips.
- Use non-substantial excerpts in a private context.
This license to use the Travel Project is expressly granted on the condition that the User fully acknowledges the purely informational, indicative, and non-guaranteed nature of the Travel Project (as detailed in particular in Articles 5.4 and 8) and that they assume full responsibility for verifying all the information and suggestions it contains (including, but not limited to, safety, accuracy, feasibility, schedules, access conditions, prices, formalities) before making any decision, incurring expenses, or undertaking their trip.
Any other use of the Travel Project, and in particular any commercial exploitation, reproduction, or total or partial public dissemination, outside the Application, is strictly prohibited without the prior express written consent of SIMPLY STUPID SOFTWARE.
Furthermore, subject to full compliance with these TOU, SIMPLY STUPID SOFTWARE grants the User a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, and revocable license to access and use the Application itself on their personal device, in accordance with its features.
The licenses granted in this article do not confer upon the User any intellectual property rights over the Application, the Travel Project (other than the limited right of use defined above), the underlying technology (including AI), algorithms, source codes, databases, trademarks, logos, or any other element belonging to SIMPLY STUPID SOFTWARE or its licensors.
5.3 User’s Responsibility for User-Provided Content
The User is solely responsible for the accuracy and completeness of the information they provide when generating a Travel Project, including in the free text fields.
The User agrees not to provide illicit, defamatory, sexual, dangerous, or inappropriate content.
The User grants SIMPLY STUPID SOFTWARE a non-exclusive, royalty-free license, for the duration of the use of the Application, authorizing SIMPLY STUPID SOFTWARE to use, host, store, reproduce, modify, communicate, publish, translate, and distribute the User-Provided Content in the context of the operation of the Application and the provision of services.
5.4 Role, Limitations, and Use of Artificial Intelligence
The artificial intelligence integrated into the Application is a tool to assist in generating a Travel Project. The suggestions, information, and images it provides are generated automatically and are offered for purely indicative purposes. The User acknowledges and agrees that this information may contain errors, inaccuracies, or be outdated, and that it in no way replaces human judgment or the need to consult reliable and official sources of information.
SIMPLY STUPID SOFTWARE makes reasonable efforts to ensure the general relevance of the generated suggestions. However, SIMPLY STUPID SOFTWARE does not guarantee the absolute accuracy, completeness, safety, or suitability of the generated information to the specific needs, personal situation, or expectations of the User.
It is imperative for the User, and falls under their sole and entire responsibility, to systematically verify by independent means the accuracy, relevance, feasibility, safety, and timeliness of all information and suggestions provided by the Application before making a decision, incurring an expense, booking a service, or undertaking their trip. This verification must particularly cover schedules, prices, access conditions, location, safety of places and activities, administrative and health formalities, etc.
Consequently, SIMPLY STUPID SOFTWARE shall not be held liable for direct or indirect damages (such as financial losses, delays, cancellations, security problems, disappointments) that may result from the User’s reliance on the information provided by the Application without having carried out the necessary checks stipulated in the paragraph above. This limitation of liability does not apply in the event of proven fault on the part of SIMPLY STUPID SOFTWARE in the provision of the service that directly caused the damage.
6. USER CONDUCT
The User agrees to use the Application in a responsible and respectful manner.
It is notably forbidden to:
- Use the Application for illegal purposes or contrary to public order and morality.
- Upload, post, email, or otherwise transmit any content that is unlawful, harmful, threatening, abusive, harassing, defamatory, vulgar, obscene, invasive of another’s privacy, hateful, or racially, ethnically, or otherwise objectionable.
- Impersonate any other person or entity.
- Disrupt or attempt to disrupt the operation of the Application, including by introducing viruses, malware, or any other element likely to cause damage.
- Use the Application in an abusive or disproportionate manner.
In the event of a breach of these obligations, SIMPLY STUPID SOFTWARE reserves the right to suspend or delete the User’s account, where applicable, and to take any action it deems appropriate.
7. NOTIFICATIONS
Users can choose to enable or disable the receipt of notifications (by email or push notifications) in the Application’s settings.
These notifications may concern new features, travel suggestions, reminders about upcoming trips, or other relevant information.
SIMPLY STUPID SOFTWARE does not commit to a particular frequency for sending these notifications.
The User is informed and accepts that receiving notifications may incur data charges from their mobile operator, for which SIMPLY STUPID SOFTWARE cannot be held responsible.
SIMPLY STUPID SOFTWARE will inform Users of significant changes to the TOU through appropriate channels (including via a notification in the Application or by email).

9. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY
9.1. Role of SIMPLY STUPID SOFTWARE It is recalled that SIMPLY STUPID SOFTWARE acts as a publisher of the Application providing AI-generated Travel Projects for informational purposes, and as a technical intermediary offering affiliate links to Partner sites. SIMPLY STUPID SOFTWARE is not a travel agent, does not organize or sell any travel services, and is not a party to the contracts concluded between the User and the Partners. Its role is limited to providing the Application tool and the information it contains, under the terms of these TOU.
9.2. Disclaimer of liability concerning Partners As a consequence of its role as an intermediary and non-party to the contracts binding the User to the Partners, SIMPLY STUPID SOFTWARE cannot be held liable for the availability or content of Partner sites, the offers proposed by them, nor for the proper or improper execution of the services (activities, accommodation, transport, etc.) that may be booked by the User from the Partners via affiliate links. Any request, claim, or dispute concerning a Partner’s services must be addressed directly to the latter, who alone assumes contractual and legal responsibility towards the User.
9.3. Liability of SIMPLY STUPID SOFTWARE for the Application In the context of providing the Application, SIMPLY STUPID SOFTWARE is bound by an obligation of means. It undertakes to make reasonable efforts to ensure the proper technical functioning of the Application and the general relevance of the information and suggestions provided, particularly those generated by AI, in accordance with the limits and warnings described in these TOU (in particular in Articles 5.4 and 8).
The liability of SIMPLY STUPID SOFTWARE for the User’s use of the Application can only be sought in the following cumulative cases:
- a proven fault directly and exclusively attributable to it in the performance of its obligations
- a direct, certain, and personal prejudice suffered by the User
- a direct and established causal link between the proven fault of SIMPLY STUPID SOFTWARE and the prejudice suffered by the User.
It is expressly recalled that the essential duty of verification incumbent upon the User (as detailed in Article 5.4) is a condition of use of the Application and will be taken into account in the assessment of any potential liability.
9.4. Limitation of Remedy (Indirect Damages) In the event that the liability of SIMPLY STUPID SOFTWARE is validly engaged in accordance with Article 9.3, the compensation due to the User will be strictly limited to the direct and certain damages suffered by the latter, as they have been demonstrated.
Subject to the express mandatory and public policy legal provisions (particularly concerning bodily injury or fraudulent or gross misconduct by SIMPLY STUPID SOFTWARE), SIMPLY STUPID SOFTWARE shall in no event be liable for indirect damages of any kind, whether foreseeable or unforeseeable, suffered by the User or third parties.
Are considered as indirect damages, without this list being exhaustive: any loss of profits, loss of revenue, loss of opportunity, loss of expected savings, loss of data, commercial prejudice, increase in costs, moral prejudice, costs or expenses incurred unnecessarily (transport, non-refundable accommodation…), or any consequence related to a disorganization of the User’s trip.
9.5. Force Majeure The liability of SIMPLY STUPID SOFTWARE cannot be engaged if the non-performance or delay in the performance of one of its obligations described in these TOU results from a case of force majeure. Force majeure is understood as any external, unforeseeable, and irresistible event within the meaning of Article 1218 of the French Civil Code and French case law.
10. ACCOUNT DELETION
The User can delete their account at any time via the Application’s settings.

SIMPLY STUPID SOFTWARE reserves the right to suspend or delete a User’s access to the Application, as well as their account, without notice or compensation, particularly in the event of the provision of illicit, harmful, threatening, abusive, harassing, defamatory, vulgar, obscene, privacy-invading, hateful, racist, or otherwise objectionable content, in the event of abusive use of the Application, prolonged inactivity of the account, or for any other legitimate reason, including in the event of a breach of any provision of these TOU.
11. PERSONAL DATA
The management of Users’ personal data is governed by our Privacy Policy, which is an integral part of these TOU and is accessible via this link.

In accordance with Article R. 631-3 of the French Consumer Code, the consumer User may bring an action either before one of the courts with territorial jurisdiction under the Code of Civil Procedure, or the court of the place where they resided at the time of the conclusion of the contract or the occurrence of the harmful event.
If a provision of these TOU is deemed invalid or unenforceable by a competent court, the other provisions will remain in force and in full effect.
The invalid or unenforceable provision will be replaced by a valid and enforceable provision that comes closest to the original intent of the parties.
