Product use & disclaimers

2.1 What Lio is

Lio is a flavored-air aromatherapy mouth diffuser designed as a behavioral habit replacement tool. It provides a hand-to-mouth ritual paired with natural, food-grade flavored air to help users break or replace everyday habits that involve repetitive mouth or hand movements.

Lio is intended as a universal habit replacement tool. Individual experiences may vary.

2.2 What Lio is not

Important — Lio products
  • Are not medical devices
  • Are not smoking cessation or vaping cessation products
  • Are not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease or condition
  • Do not contain nicotine, tobacco, cannabinoids, or any pharmaceutical active ingredients
  • Do not produce combustion, smoke, or vapor from heated liquids
  • Have not been evaluated by the EMA, FDA, MHRA, or any equivalent regulatory authority as a therapeutic product

Statements made on this Site, in our marketing, or on social media have not been evaluated by any medical or regulatory authority as therapeutic claims. Lio products should not be used as a substitute for professional medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment.

2.3 Safe use

  • Read and follow all product instructions, ingredient lists, and safety information before use.
  • Review the ingredients in each Lio Core before use to confirm suitability.

  • Consult a qualified healthcare professional before use if you have a pre-existing medical condition, are pregnant, nursing, taking medication, or have known sensitivities to essential oils or food-grade flavorings.
  • Not discontinue any prescribed medication or medical treatment on the basis of using Lio without the guidance of your healthcare provider.
  • Use Lio products only as directed.
  • Keep Lio products, Cores, and accessories out of reach of children and pets.

Lio assumes no responsibility or liability for any adverse reactions, health outcomes, or consequences resulting from the use, misuse, or reliance on Lio products.

03

Applicability

These Terms apply to all offers, orders, agreements, and services made through breathelio.com. By placing an order or using the Site, you agree to these Terms in full.

We reserve the right to refuse service, terminate accounts, cancel orders, or modify content at our sole discretion.

04

Products

We make every reasonable effort to display our products, ingredients, and packaging accurately. However, we cannot guarantee that product descriptions, photography, flavor representations, colors, or other content are entirely free of errors.

We reserve the right, without prior notice, to:

  • Modify or discontinue any product, Core flavor, or SKU.
  • Update formulations, ingredients, packaging, or designs.
  • Limit quantities of any product sold per customer or per order.
  • Correct typographical, pricing, or descriptive errors, including after an order has been placed.

Product availability may vary by market, and not all products are offered in all regions.

05

Pricing

All prices are displayed on the Site in the applicable local currency and, where required by law, include VAT or equivalent sales tax. Shipping costs, duties, and additional taxes (where applicable) are calculated and displayed at checkout.

We reserve the right to change prices, promotions, and discounts at any time without prior notice. The price applicable to your order is the price displayed at the time your order is confirmed.

In the event of a pricing error, we reserve the right to cancel any affected order and refund any amounts already charged.

06

Orders

6.1 Order acceptance

Your order constitutes an offer to purchase. An order is only accepted once we send you a confirmation email. We reserve the right to refuse, cancel, or limit any order at our sole discretion, including but not limited to cases involving:

  • Suspected fraud or unauthorized payment.
  • Orders that appear to be for resale rather than personal use.
  • Shipping addresses outside our serviceable regions.
  • Inaccurate, incomplete, or suspicious order information.
  • Violations of these Terms.

6.2 Your responsibilities

You are responsible for providing accurate, current, and complete information when placing an order — including your name, shipping address, email address, and payment details. Lio is not liable for delivery failures or delays caused by inaccurate information provided at checkout.

07

Payment

Payment is due in full at the time of purchase. We accept the payment methods displayed at checkout, which may include:

  • Credit and debit cards — Visa, Mastercard, American Express.
  • PayPal.
  • Apple Pay and Google Pay.
  • Klarna, iDEAL, Bancontact, and other locally available payment methods.

All payments are processed through secure, PCI-DSS compliant third-party payment providers. Lio does not store your full payment card details on its own servers.

If a payment is declined or reversed after the order has shipped, you remain liable for the full order value.

08

Shipping & delivery

Shipping and delivery are governed by our Shipping Policy.

Estimated delivery times provided on the Site or in order confirmations are approximations only and are not guaranteed. Lio is not liable for delays caused by carriers, customs authorities, weather, or other circumstances beyond our reasonable control.

Risk of loss and title for products pass to you upon delivery to the address you provided at checkout.

09

Returns, refunds & cancellations

Returns, refunds, order cancellations, and our satisfaction guarantee (where offered) are governed by our Refund & Return Policy. Please review this policy before placing an order.

EU and UK customers retain their statutory rights under applicable consumer protection laws, including the right of withdrawal, where applicable.

10

Refill Club subscription

By signing up for the Refill Club subscription ("Subscription"), you agree to the following additional terms.

10.1 Subscription service

The Refill Club is a recurring subscription that delivers Lio Cores, accessories, and/or devices to you on a scheduled basis, at a discounted subscriber price. Subscription benefits, pricing, and included products may vary by region and are displayed at the time of sign-up.

10.2 Automatic renewal

Your Subscription automatically renews on your selected delivery frequency (e.g., every 30, 60, or 90 days) unless modified, paused, or cancelled by you prior to the next renewal date.

By providing your payment details, you authorize Lio to automatically charge your chosen payment method the applicable Subscription fee on each renewal date until cancellation.

10.3 Subscription fee & changes

The applicable Subscription fee is shown at checkout. Subscription fees may vary by region and may change over time. We will notify active subscribers by email of any price increase at least 14 days before it takes effect. Continued participation after the effective date constitutes acceptance of the new price.

Subscription fees are exclusive of applicable taxes where required by law. Taxes are calculated and applied at the time each order is processed.

10.4 Failed payments

If a Subscription payment fails, we will attempt to reprocess the payment up to five (5) times over a reasonable period. You will be notified by email of any failed attempts. If payment cannot be collected, we reserve the right to pause or cancel your Subscription.

10.5 Managing your subscription

You may manage your Subscription at any time through your customer account, including:

  • Pausing, skipping, or delaying a shipment.
  • Swapping Core flavors or adjusting product selections.
  • Changing delivery frequency.
  • Updating payment or shipping details.
  • Cancelling your Subscription.
Cutoff for changes
  • All modifications must be completed by 23:59 in your account time zone on the calendar day before your scheduled renewal date.
  • Changes requested after this cutoff apply to the following billing cycle.

10.6 Cancellation

You may cancel your Subscription at any time, for any reason, through your customer account or by contacting support@breathelio.com.

Cancellation requests received after the cutoff time may not prevent the next scheduled order from processing and shipping. In such cases, the cancellation will take effect for the following billing cycle.

A Subscription is not considered cancelled until you receive an email confirmation of cancellation from us. It is your responsibility to retain this confirmation.

Cancelling a Subscription does not automatically cancel any already-processed orders. Order cancellations are governed by our Refund & Return Policy.

10.7 Our rights

We reserve the right to refuse, pause, or cancel any Subscription at our sole discretion, including for suspected fraud, abuse of promotions, chargebacks, or violation of these Terms.
