5. User Content and Data Management

You retain ownership of text, photos, location information, records, tags, ratings, inventory data, expenses, product data, vehicle data, pet data, health and lifestyle records, and other content you create, enter, capture, upload, store, or sync using the Services. You are responsible for having the rights to use that content, complying with laws and third-party rights, keeping your content accurate, managing backups, deleting content, and controlling device permissions. We may process your content as necessary to provide, sync, back up, support, and improve the Services.

6. Device Features, Location, Photos, and Notifications

Depending on the app and feature, the Services may use camera, photo library, location, notifications, iCloud/CloudKit, advertising tracking permission, and other device features. You can manage these permissions in your device settings. If a permission is disabled, some features may not work, records may be incomplete, and sync or notifications may not occur.

7. Health, Medical, and Safety Disclaimer

Apps such as KIRYOKU, Alc.Note, FlareLog, and WanStep may allow you to record energy, alcohol, sleep, skin condition, symptom notes, pet condition, walks, and lifestyle information. These features are for personal tracking, journaling, and reflection only. They are not intended for medical diagnosis, treatment, prevention, veterinary diagnosis, driving decisions after drinking, legal compliance decisions, or emergency decisions. If you have health, alcohol, safety, or pet health concerns, consult a doctor, veterinarian, pharmacist, public authority, or other appropriate professional.

8. Automated, Estimated, and AI-Assisted Outputs

The Services may display estimates, suggestions, classifications, summaries, recommendations, or AI-assisted text or image-related output based on your entries, photos, location information, barcodes, purchases, or past records. These outputs are for reference only and are not guaranteed to be accurate, complete, current, or useful. You should review information yourself before making important decisions.

9. In-App Purchases and Subscriptions

Some Services may offer in-app purchases, paid features, ad removal, additional functionality, or subscriptions. Purchases are processed by the applicable app store, and pricing, taxes, renewals, cancellation, and refunds are governed by the store's terms and procedures. Subscriptions may renew automatically unless you cancel them.

Subscriptions offered through the Apple App Store are associated with your Apple ID. After cancellation, you may continue to use the applicable paid features until the end of the current billing period. If you would like to request a refund, please use Apple's refund request page or the applicable store's prescribed process. Refund eligibility and amounts are determined by the applicable store's rules and decision, not by us.

Third-party services are governed by their own terms, privacy policies, and operating conditions. We do not control or guarantee third-party service availability, accuracy, security, outages, specification changes, or data processing.Learn more: Google AdMob policies · Google Privacy Policy
