The App is provided for general organizational and informational purposes only.

4. User Data and Content Ownership
You retain all ownership rights in the data and content you enter into the App. We do not claim ownership over your content.
Because the App operates locally and does not collect user data, we do not access, monitor, or control the content you store in the App.

7. No Professional Advice & Report Disclaimer
The App does not provide legal, financial, insurance, or other professional advice. Any information displayed by the App, including reminders, dates, or asset-related information, is provided for convenience only and should not be relied upon as a substitute for professional advice or official records.
Generated Reports: Reports, exports, or summaries generated by the App are for your personal record-keeping only.

THE APP IS PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE,” WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, WHETHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED, OR STATUTORY. TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, WE DISCLAIM ALL WARRANTIES, INCLUDING IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT.
We do not warrant that the App will be error-free, uninterrupted, or that data will not be lost.
9. Limitation of Liability
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, THE COMPANY PARTIES SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, SPECIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, INCLUDING LOSS OF DATA, LOSS OF PROFITS, OR DAMAGE TO PROPERTY, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO YOUR USE OF OR INABILITY TO USE THE APP.
IN NO EVENT SHALL THE TOTAL LIABILITY OF THE COMPANY PARTIES EXCEED THE AMOUNT YOU PAID FOR THE APP, IF ANY.

11. App Support, Updates, and Availability
We aim to support the App for a reasonable period, but we are not obligated to provide maintenance, updates, enhancements, or support for any specified period of time or specified support lifecycles.
We may modify, suspend, or discontinue support for the App, or any portion of it, at any time, including ceasing to provide updates or compatibility with future versions of iOS or macOS. Such changes may occur due to technical, legal, business, or operational considerations and may occur without notice.
12. Third-Party Platform Disclaimer (Apple)
This agreement is between you and App Industries LLC, not Apple Inc. Apple is not responsible for the App or its content and has no obligation to provide maintenance or support services for the App. Apple is not responsible for addressing any claims relating to the App, including product liability, legal compliance, or intellectual property infringement.
You acknowledge and agree that Apple, and Apple’s subsidiaries, are third-party beneficiaries of these Terms, and that, upon your acceptance of these Terms, Apple will have the right (and will be deemed to have accepted the right) to enforce these Terms against you as a third-party beneficiary thereof.
13. Governing Law and Venue
These Terms shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Florida, without regard to its conflict of laws principles. Subject to the dispute resolution provisions in Section 14, any legal suit, action, or proceeding arising out of or related to these Terms or the App shall be instituted exclusively in the state or federal courts located in the State of Florida. You consent to personal jurisdiction in those courts for the purpose of litigating any such action.
14. Dispute Resolution and Arbitration
Mandatory Arbitration: Any dispute, claim, or controversy arising out of or relating to these Terms or the App shall be resolved through binding arbitration in the State of Florida, rather than in court, except as provided below.
Small Claims Exception: Notwithstanding the agreement to arbitrate, either you or App Industries LLC may assert claims, if they qualify, in small claims court in the State of Florida.
Arbitration Rules: The arbitration shall be conducted by a neutral arbitrator and governed by the rules of the American Arbitration Association (AAA) or a similar established arbitration service mutually agreed upon by the parties.
Enforcement: Judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof.
15. Class Action Waiver
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, YOU AND THE COMPANY PARTIES AGREE THAT ANY PROCEEDINGS TO RESOLVE OR LITIGATE ANY DISPUTE IN ANY FORUM WILL BE CONDUCTED SOLELY ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS. You agree that you will not seek to have any dispute heard as a class action, private attorney general action, or in any other proceeding in which either party acts or proposes to act in a representative capacity. No arbitration or proceeding will be combined with another without the prior written consent of all parties to all affected arbitrations or proceedings.
16. Changes to These Terms
We may update these Terms from time to time. Updated Terms will be posted within the App or on our website, and the effective date will be revised. Your continued use of the App after changes become effective constitutes your acceptance of the updated Terms.
