User content

The Application allows You to create and store content ("Your Content") in the Application. By using the Application to create or store content, You indicate that You agree to the following:

  1. The Application is designed to reliably store Your Content only to the extent of the Devices capabilities. When Your Content is stored on your Devices, You are responsible for taking the necessary steps to avoid any data loss. These steps may include but are not limited to making regular backups of your Devices' data.
  2. To increase reliability, the Application may offer storage solutions ("Cloud Storage") that store data outside of your Devices. Using Cloud Storage in the Application may be tied to purchasing a renewable subscription, and such subscriptions may be tied to and dictate how and when You can access Your Content.
  3. While both Devices' storage and Cloud Storage is meant to store and make available Your Content to You reliably, this is done on best effort basis, and as such nor The Application neither the Licensor guarantees the availability of Your Content to You at any time.
  4. Independently of the storage solution being used, nor the Application neither the Licensor is responsible for any data loss that might occur.
  5. Your Content may be used by The Application or by the Licensor for purposes that do not include sharing Your Content to third parties. Such purposes may include but are not limited to statistics, analytics, computer algorithm training, or any other form of processing.

General usage terms

  1. The Application may allow generating a raster image ("Export") of a bracelet pattern. Such Exports might contain watermarks, links or any form of references to the Application or to any other content ("Additional Content"), some or all of which might not be related to the actual bracelet pattern in the Export. Any form of altering of the Exports, which includes but is not limited to removing, hiding, obscuring, or in any way changing the Additional Content is prohibited.
  2. When submitting, posting, displaying, transmitting, performing, publishing, distributing, or broadcasting Exports, the licensing terms of the bracelet pattern description that the Export contains apply. If You are not the original author of the bracelet pattern description that the Export contains, you are responsible for obtaining written consent from the original author of the bracelet pattern description for sharing their work. Local and international laws may apply when determining if a given bracelet pattern description should fall in the category of someone else's original work, your original work or a derivative of someone else's original work.
  3. Cloud Storage operation is dependent on the Devices having an accurate system clock that is synchronized on the operating system level via the NTP protocol, and as such it's expected to be having a deviation under 5 seconds. Devices having an inaccurate clock by this definition are not guaranteed to have a working Cloud Storage, and using such Devices might result in unexpected behaviour both on the Device having an inaccurate clock as well as on other Devices that are connected to the same user account. While it is highly unlikely, and measures are in place to avoid it, unexpected behaviour on such Devices might include data loss.
  4. Cloud Storage is dependent on the Devices having unobstructed internet access. While the Application was designed to handle the intermittent loss of internet connection somewhat robustly, such measures are made on best effort basis. As such, the Application is not guaranteed to work as expected in such scenarios.
  5. In order to use Cloud Storage, You must sign in to the Application. There may be multiple ways of signing in which may include, but are not limited to Apple Sign in, Google sign in. You may use different sign in channels, but they will sign You in to the same account in the Application if and only if these sign in channels use the same email address. This means that for example, signing in using an Apple account having email address 'bracelet@example.com' and then (maybe on a different Device) signing in using a Google account having the same email address 'bracelet@example.com' will result in the Application signing You in to the same Application account on those two devices.
  6. In case You have used Cloud Storage before, but at a later point in time You do not fulfil the requirements for using Cloud Storage anymore (e.g if You do not have an active subscription, while Cloud Storage requires it), You might lose access to some or all of Your bracelet patterns. In such cases Your bracelet patterns will be available to You again if you fulfil the requirements for using Cloud Storage within 2 years. If you do not qualify for using Cloud Storage within 2 years, any data that You might have in Cloud Storage, including but not limited to bracelet patterns and profile information may be deleted.

Usage terms for Bracelet Pattern Recognition

The Application may allow You to import bracelet pattern descriptions that were generated by other tools or websites. When using this import functionality, referred to as "Bracelet Pattern Recognition" You indicate that You agree to the following:

  1. Bracelet Pattern Recognition was designed to operate on bracelet pattern descriptions, which are images that consist of a grid-like arrangement of so-called knots, each knot having a specific color and knotting direction. Bracelet Pattern Recognition was not designed to operate on, and most likely will not perform as expected on actual, physical bracelets.
  2. Bracelet Pattern Recognition was designed to make it easier to input existing bracelet pattern descriptions into the Application. Bracelet Pattern Recognition can operate on existing images stored on your Devices, or if your Devices have a camera, Bracelet Pattern Recognition can operate directly on images taken by that camera.
  3. There are no guarantees whatsoever for the correctness of the patterns that Bracelet Pattern Recognition outputs. You are responsible to check if the result of the recognition process is suitable for You.
  4. The performance of Bracelet Pattern Recognition is closely tied to the Devices' performance it is used on. More recent Devices may be expected to perform better than others. There is no guarantee that Bracelet Pattern Recognition will perform as expected or if it works at all on your Device.
  5. Bracelet Pattern Recognition does not influence, alter, or in any other way affect the license of the bracelet pattern descriptions it is used on. You are solely responsible to adhere to the license terms of any bracelet pattern description that You may use Bracelet Pattern Recognition on.
  6. Nor the Application neither the Licensor can be held responsible in any form for any copyright infringements or disputes that might arise from using Bracelet Pattern Recognition.

Termination

The license is valid until terminated by the Licensor or by You. Your rights under this license will terminate automatically and without notice from the Licensor if You fail to adhere to any term(s) of this license. Upon License termination, You shall stop all use of the Licensed Application, and destroy all copies, full or partial, of the Licensed Application.
