Created by Londoners for Londoners, we are called HumanForest because that’s our vision of what our great city will become. As a tree removes CO2 from the atmosphere, people opting to make their journey on a HumanForest bike remove carbon emissions from London. Working together, trees and people can drastically reduce the amount of CO2 in the air – they become, in essence, a HumanForest.
Our e-bikes are dockless, electric and green. But, best of all, Users are given 10 minutes free to use daily. We are here to compete with the car and complement London’s public transportation network. It is our hope that you leave your car at home and take a HumanForest e-bike instead.
These are the terms of supply for services ordered on humanforest.co.uk (Site) and/or through any web or mobile application we provide, which allows service ordering (Application).

We take fraud seriously, both for your protection and ours.

You must cease to use and delete the password for your account upon termination of your account for whatever reason.
The Services are described on the Site and Application. We warrant that the Services will substantially conform to the relevant description on the Site/Application and will be provided with reasonable care and skill.
You must use the Application to locate, unlock, rent and lock our available e-bikes.
Only one e-bike can be hired at any one time.
The e-bikes rely on, and can be found within, "Permitted Zones". Permitted Zones can be identified on the Application and are updated by HumanForest from time to time. We use reasonable endeavours to ensure that our e-bikes are available within the Permitted Zones. However, we cannot guarantee the availability of e-bikes for hire from within the Permitted Zones (or otherwise) and for supply and related reasons we reserve the right to accept or reject your reservation requests.
You acknowledge and agree that you are solely responsible for all use you make of any Services, the Application and the Site.
You also agree to the following rules for using the Services, the Application and the Site.
Upon registration for an account with us, you will be automatically enrolled into our Loyalty Programme “TreeCoins”. You will not be able to opt out of the programme unless you request to delete your account.
The Application and Site may, from time to time, include links to external sites, which may include links to third party offers and promotions. We include these to provide you with access to information, products or services that you may find useful or interesting. We are not responsible for the content of these sites or for anything provided by them and do not guarantee that they will be continuously available. The fact that we include links to such external sites does not imply any endorsement of or association with their operators or promoters.
We work hard to keep our e-bikes in good condition, but they are subject to frequent use. You must perform a safety check on our e-bikes before use, including by undertaking the following actions:
We check the condition of the e-bikes regularly, but if your safety check finds that something has happened, such that there is a deficiency or fault with the e-bike or it is not working properly or requires maintenance, we need you to please tell us so that we can rectify this as soon as possible (see Contacting us). If you notice any of these or other issues in one of our e-bikes before your use, please do not use it and find and use an alternative one of our e-bikes. Further, If you notice any of these or other issues in one of our e-bikes during your trip, please stop your trip as soon as you safely can.
Please note that if you fail to report any of these or other issues in one of our e-bikes this means it is difficult for us to identify the causation of any faults and unfortunately we may have to attribute the fault to you (including requiring that you meet any associated costs). Please report any issues as soon as you can.
We regularly conduct a thorough cleaning and sanitising of all e-bikes. We recommend that you wipe down the surfaces of the brakes and handlebars and wear gloves whilst riding.
If we are notified of an e-bike being ridden by a user with Coronavirus, the e-bike will immediately be taken out of service and fully sanitised. Only after three days will it be returned to service.
We recommend that you wear an appropriate helmet any time you use any of our e-bikes. The helmet should be sized, fitted and fastened per the manufacturer instructions. Helmets and other protective gear are no guarantee against personal injury. In the event that a helmet is required by law, you must wear one if those laws apply to you. If you choose not to wear a helmet and are injured, you chose to take that risk and we are not responsible for how you ride the bike (unless something we did was the actual cause of such injury).
Your safety is the most important thing for us. We ask that you ride our e-bikes with care, treat them like your own and be mindful of your surroundings. Doing all that, we are confident that your riding experience will be a great one!
This means you should not carry any animals or personal items (like a briefcase or a bag) or use any device (like a mobile phone or another portable device) if they impair or hinder with your vision or safe use of our Services (no texting while using our Services, for example). There will not always be a designated place for you to ride, such as a bike lane, so please exercise caution when riding around cars and other traffic (we are not responsible for the actions of drivers).
Once you have registered and set up an account with us, Services may be ordered by clicking on the Service you wish to purchase and then following the prompts that will appear on-screen on the Site/Application. You may check and correct any input errors in your order up until the point at which you submit your order to us.
Your orders will be submitted when you touch the “Slide to reForest” button on the applicable checkout page or scan the QR code displayed on the e-bike. At this point, you will be accepting these Terms of Service and are liable to pay.
Your order constitutes an offer to us to purchase the ordered Service(s) subject to the terms and conditions of these Terms of Service. All orders are subject to acceptance by us. We are not obliged to accept your order and may, at our discretion, decline to accept any order for any reason. You do, however, acknowledge that by clicking on the order in the manner described above, you enter into an obligation to pay for the Services. When we accept your order, we will confirm such acceptance by sending you a confirmation of your order (Order Confirmation) via a message in the App or notification. The contract between you and us in relation to the Service(s) ordered (Contract) will only be formed when we send you the Order Confirmation. We will also be able to access any Contract in your App.
Your "Hire Period" starts when you scan one of the QR codes displayed on the e-bike or within the Application by touching the “Slide to reForest” button.
During your Hire Period, depending on your location you may pause your Hire Period by touching pause icon in the Application. The Application will indicate where you can and cannot pause your Hire Period depending on your position. You must check the Application for instructions and ensure that the e-bike does not cause any disruption to the public realm and if you pause your Hire Period make sure the footpath remains clear.
To successfully end your trip and return your e-bike, you must be within a Permitted Parking Area. The Application will indicate where you can and cannot return your e-bike based on the Permitted Area. Each Area will have a different fee structure which will be communicated clearly to you via the Application. You will not be able to return and lock your e-bike and end the trip unless you are in one of the Permitted Zones.
The Hire Period ends when the e-bike is returned to a Permitted Zone and then by clicking the “End” button in the Application after which the e-bike will lock automatically. Please be aware that you MUST use your phone to lock the e-bike. You are responsible for ensuring the Hire Period has correctly ended.
If you fail to return an e-bike to a Permitted Zone and valid area where the e-bike can be readily retrieved (for example, you have to leave it on private property, in a locked community or an otherwise unreachable area) we will be required to pick-up the e-bike and return it to a Permitted Zone and valid area. HumanForest charges a fee of up to £250 to recover and retrieve the e-bike. The fee will be notified through the Application and charged automatically according to your Payment Card. Any fines incurred will be charged in the same way. If you disagree with any charge, please contact us within 30 days (see Contact us).
Please don’t lock up any e-bike with a lock that is not ours. This means we cannot unlock it and may charge you a fee of up to £250 depending on our costs incurred in unlocking any e-bike due to your actions.
If you abandon an e-bike, you will continue to be charged per minute. e-bikes which are left stationary for over 20 minutes without pause during a Hire Period will be treated as having been abandoned, you will be locked out from the e-bike and the e-bike will be retrieved by our operations team. Until the e-bike is retrieved, you are responsible for all associated fees and fines.
If you fail to return an e-bike to a Permitted Zone and valid area where the e-bike can be readily retrieved (for example, you have to leave it on private property, in a locked community or an otherwise unreachable area) we will be required to pick-up the e-bike and return it to a Permitted Zone and valid area. HumanForest charges a fee of up to £250 to recover and retrieve the e-bike. The fee will be notified through the Application and charged automatically according to your Payment Card. Any fines incurred will be charged in the same way. If you disagree with any charge, please contact us within 30 days (see Contact us).
The maximum Bike Hire Period is 23 hours. You need to end the Hire Period before you reach 23 hours. This is so we can check on the status of the e-bike and its location. Another trip can be commenced, on the same e-bike, directly afterwards. e-bikes not returned within 23 hours will be deemed abandoned, lost or stolen. In such an event, we reserve the right to report you to the police and exclude you from using our e-bikes in the future.
Our e-bikes require battery charging to operate, which we administer frequently. The level of battery charge will decrease with use over both time and distance. The e-bikes lose their battery charge for various reasons, including due to weather, road conditions, type and manufacture and other factors.
It is your responsibility to be aware of the level of battery charge in the e-bikes that you rent and to use your judgment to decide whether the e-bikes current battery charge level will get you where you intend to go. As part of our Services, we work to ensure that our e-bikes have adequate battery charge for your general use, but we do not know where you intend to go and we cannot guarantee a particular e-bike will have enough battery charge power to get you there.
E-bikes with less than 20% charge will not be available to hire. If the E-bike in use drops below 5%, your ride may be ended and you will be responsible for any parking fees and fines.
Other than normal wear and tear, you must return the e-bike (meaning return and lock your e-bike within a Permitted Zone) in the same condition in which you received it. If you damage the e-bike (accidentally or intentionally) or fail to properly return it and damage occurs, you will be responsible for the associated costs. e-bike repair and replacement can amount to up to £2,000 per e-bike based upon the costs of repair or replacement. The same charges will apply for any e-bike not returned within 23 hours of hire, which we will consider lost or stolen and, depending on the circumstances, we may need to file a police report against you. We also reserve the right to take any action against you that the law allows, including holding you liable for the value of the e-bike.
You must report any accident, crash, damage, personal injury, or a stolen or lost e-bike to us as soon as possible. If an accident involves personal injury, property damage or a stolen e-bike, you must file a report with the local police department within 24 hours.
The charges for Services are as quoted on the Site and Application. Charges include VAT. Please note that we may change the pricing for our Services as we deem necessary or appropriate for our business.
Charges are liable to change at any time, but changes will not affect orders in respect of which we have already sent you an Order Confirmation.
Payment for all orders will be charged to your Payment Card designated in your account. We accept payment by most major credit and debit cards. Please note that, for security reasons, the statement address for the Payment Card you use to pay must be the same as your contact address for the order. You may only use a payment method that you have the legal right to use and you authorise us to charge this payment method for any charges that you incur.
All payments to us are made through a third-party payment processor in the form of payment accepted by them. Our third party payment processor is Stripe who collects and holds payment information. By registering the Payment Card you agree that this can be used to pay relevant fees and fines including (without limitation) fees for hire, pausing a hire, any relocation or retrieval fees, fines and additional charges (as notified to you in writing) for damage or failure to return an e-bike as well as any other fees and charges identified in these terms.
You should be aware that online payment transactions are subject to validation checks by your card issuer and we are not responsible if your card issuer declines to authorise payment for any reason. Please note, it is possible that your card issuer may charge you an online handling fee or processing fee. We are not responsible for this.
Prior to renting a vehicle, a pre-authorisation or temporary hold of £5.00 will be placed on your default payment method. This hold ensures that you have enough funds to later pay for your ride and will show up as a "pending" charge on your bank statement. It will show up as a "pending" transaction on your bank statement and should never actually be charged. This amount should appear in your account within a few business days. Please note: The timeframe of this release can vary, we encourage you to check with your bank to understand their policies on pre-authorisation holds.
During the registration process, when you first add your card details to your account, a pre-authorisation or temporary hold of £0.60 will be placed on your payment method. This hold ensures that your payment method is active. It will show up as a ''pending'' transaction on your bank statement and will never actually be charged. This amount should appear in your account within a few business days. This will only occur at one time, during the registration process. Please note: The timeframe of this release can vary, we encourage you to check with your bank to understand their policies on pre-authorisation holds.
From time to time we may run promotions where we issue discount codes. These can be used in part-payment of the charges for the Service(s) ordered through the Site or Application, subject to the terms under which they were issued (as indicated in our relevant promotion from which you received the code). These terms may require your agreement to take part in the application promotions. Discount codes can only be used once, only redeemable via the Site/Application, only during the period of validity stated and only in respect of the relevant Service(s) stated. Discount codes cannot be redeemed for cash. Any discount codes you accrue will be used on a first in-first out basis in the order in which you have accrued them.
You are responsible for all charges to your account. If you have questions regarding charges to your account, you should contact us (see Contact us).
We will endeavour to take payment in respect of all charges to your account from the same Payment Card that you have previously paid with (unless you have provided details of an alternative Payment Card in your name that we should use). You authorise us, on an ongoing basis, to debit that Payment Card (or, if relevant, the alternative Payment Card) automatically with all charges due and payable by you in relation to any Service in accordance with these terms, until that Service is cancelled or your account is closed.
If you do not pay us charges that you owe to us on time (including if any correct charge to your Payment Card is not authorised), we may suspend or terminate your access to any Service (including the Application and Site) (and we reserve the right to pursue any available legal remedy to collect the amount owed by you). However, charges will continue to be incurred until the account is closed.
If you disagree with any charges we have made to your account, you must let us know as soon as possible after you have become aware of the issue. To resolve any disputed charges, we will need certain trip information, including the date and approximate start and end times of your trip. As a policy, we do not offer refunds for your use of our Services, and any exceptions to this policy are in our sole discretion.
When you are using our Services, the Application or the Site, you must comply with the laws that apply to you. If you receive a ticket or a fine, cause our e-bike to be towed and/or impounded or receive any other penalties or fees, you are responsible and liable for all associated costs. We cooperate with all governmental officials in their enforcement of the applicable laws, and for expediency, we may pay amounts you owe on your behalf and provide any necessary information requested or required by the applicable government agencies. If we do so, you are required to pay us, in addition to any applicable associated costs associated with third party collection or administrative agents if we have to use them to resolve the issue. By agreeing to these terms, you agree that we may charge these amounts to your preferred payment method indicated in your account, and we may need to contact you for additional information.
You agree that you will not, nor allow anyone else, to use your account or any Service, the Application or the Site:
