1. DISCLAIMER

THIS SOFTWARE, ITS RELATED SERVICES AND MATERIALS, ARE ALL PROVIDED ON AN "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE" BASIS, WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING WITHOUT WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY AND WITHOUT WARRANTY OF FITNESS FOR ANY PARTICULAR PURPOSE. DEVELOPER EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMS ANY AND ALL LIABILITY FOR ANY POSSIBLE LOSSES, DAMAGES, OR COSTS; EITHER DIRECT OR INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, EXEMPLARY OR CONSEQUENTIAL; IN ANY WAY RELATED TO OR ARISING FROM THIS SOFTWARE, USE OF THIS SOFTWARE, OR FROM INABILITY TO USE THIS SOFTWARE. YOU USE THIS SOFTWARE AT YOUR OWN DISCRETION AND AT YOUR OWN RISK.

2. License to use

You are granted a non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable end-user license to use our mobile application as installed on your device for your own personal use.

3. Limitations

You may not use this software for anything that could be considered illegal or in relation to activities that could be considered illegal.

You may not distribute, sell, rent, loan or make copies or derivative works of this software or any part of it, or of its related services or materials.

You may not reverse-engineer, disassemble, tamper with protections, otherwise modify or security test this software or its related services without the prior written permission from the developer. If you are a security professional interested in finding faults, do drop us a line first.

4. No transfer

You may not transfer this agreement, license, or any of your contractual obligations or rights, to a third party.

5. Termination

Your license and right to use this software or its related services may be terminated or prevented by the developer at any time, at the developer's sole discretion for any or no reason at all.

6. Intellectual property rights

This software and its related services and materials are protected by copyright laws.

You agree not to infringe any copyrights, trademarks, or other intellectual property rights of the developer or those of any third parties, whether specifically marked or not.

7. Safety

You agree that you and only you are responsible for taking the necessary actions to keep your device and data safe, and that you are responsible for assessing the risk of storing any kind of information in this app or otherwise on your mobile device.

8. Feature set

The feature set and the supported import/export format may change with any future release, and any feature, including the whole import/export functionality, may be removed in any future release.

Previously free features may become paid features, and previously paid features may become free features, or features may be removed altogether.

9. Purchases

Upgrading or subscribing to a paid version entitles you to use the paid features that are made available at any given time, and you acknowledge that this set of features may change.

If a lifetime upgrade or a comparable one-off purchase is made available, you agree that the feature set such a purchase allows you to use may change, the suitability of this software to your use case may change, and that the software may at some point come to a state where it is not possible to maintain or support anymore.

Purchases and subscriptions will be bound to the Google account they are purchased with, and are not transferable to another account.

If a free trial is available, it can only be used once.

A purchase that has been made will be final after the Google Play provided refund period, if any, unless covered by a money-back guarantee set forth in these terms

Possible refunds will only be issued to the original payment method.

10. Money-back guarantee / refund policy

A money-back guarantee is valid if it was stated here in the terms or in the newest release of the app at the time of purchase.

If a longer than default refund period has been promised (either in the newest version of the app at the time of purchase/upgrade, or by the developer directly) you may request a refund during that timeframe.

By default, you may ask for a refund during a 60-day period after your purchase of a lifetime / pay once pro upgrade. You may request a refund only once.

By default, for subscriptions, you can request a refund during the first 14 days after your first payment.

If you want to request a refund during the initial Google Play allowed period right after the purchase, it is recommended that you do so through Google Play (e.g. the Play Store app), as it will get processed faster that way.

Refund request must be made using email (a simple one-liner stating that you want a refund is fine 🤗) to the address [email protected] and must be sent from the same address your purchase is associated with on Google Play to make it possible for us to identify your order.

You may, but are not required to, provide a reason or other feedback for why you want a refund.

Refunds will only be issued to the original payment method.

11. Version support

It is possible that two different versions of the app won't function well together or are unable to sync to/from the same Google Drive account.

Also, in general once you update the app to a newer version, it may not be possible to downgrade.

We may from time to time drop support for older Android versions, in which case new releases may not be available for an older device anymore. Your subscription or pro/premium upgrade status will have no effect on this.

Thus, if you wish to sync between multiple Android devices, you should make sure they are new enough. If in doubt, you may always ask us.

Current lowest supported Android version as of writing is 8.0 Oreo, but this is subject to change at any time.

You should always keep the app updated to the newest version available. Otherwise you will NOT get fixes to possibly critical bugs and issues and will risk losing data. There is no way for us to reach out to you and let you know if an issue exists in any specific version, so please, keep the app updated to the newest version.

12. Feedback

If you provide us feedback through any channels, you grant us a permanent, worldwide, royalty-free and transferable license to utilize and publish such feedback in any suitable way we see fit, at our discretion, without publishing your personal details however.

13. Support

We try to provide adequate support for all of our users, but expressly disclaim the obligation to do so. There is no warranty that support can or will be rendered, or that it will be possible to do so in a timely manner.

14. Cryptographic software

This software may contain, perform or call upon strong cryptography; the import, export, use or possession of which may be limited or illegal in certain parts of the world.

You agree to comply with local laws and any applicable regulation.

If export of encryption from the United States or import of encryption to your region is in any way controlled or becomes so with a future policy change, you may no longer use this software.

15. Indemnity

You agree to indemnify and hold harmless the developer from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, costs and/or expenses related to or arising from your use of this software, especially if in violation of these terms.

16. Limitation of liability

Like any software, this software may contain bugs or other faults that may in some instances cause you to lose or not be able to access your data. In most cases any such problem will be temporary and you are better off contacting support than trying to fix it yourself.

The surest way to lose your data is to not have backups, and then to either lose or break your device or to uninstall the application for any possible reason.

You agree, that the developer cannot be held liable for any losses or damages in any way related to or arising from this software.

Furthermore you agree, that any possible claims against the developer must be limited in total to at maximum the amount you've paid for the software to the developer during the preceding 12 months of such claim and that a possible refund will be the only and final remedy available if any.

17. Transfer of business

We may transfer this agreement, any legal rights, obligations and responsibilities, and any related data and information, to a third party as a part of, for example and including but not limited to, a business merger, business restructuring or a sale of all or of a part of our business. Such transfer may happen even after termination of this agreement and without prior notice.

18. Other provisions

For any dispute you may have, you agree to first and foremost try and resolve it informally by contacting us.

If a provision would otherwise be deemed invalid or unenforceable in any given jurisdiction, it shall still apply to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law.

19. Updates and modifications

These terms may be updated, modified or amended without prior notice with any future update of this software or separately on our website.

It is strongly recommended that you keep this software updated to the newest version in order to receive latest bug fixes and other improvements. It is possible that an out of date version of this software will stop working and providing support for old versions may not be possible.
