3. Intellectual Property and Licence

3.2 Prohibited Conduct: You must not:

• copy or modify the Application or any part of it without authorization;
• extract, decompile, or disassemble the source code of the Application;
• translate the Application into other languages or create derivative versions of it; or
• use the Service Provider’s trademarks without authorization.

3.3 End User Licence Agreement (EULA): The Service Provider does not provide its own end user licence agreement for the Application. Accordingly, use of the Application distributed through the App Store is licensed under Apple’s standard licence agreement (Apple Standard EULA).

4. Changes to the Service and Charges

4.1 Changes to the Service: The Service Provider is dedicated to keeping the Application as beneficial and efficient as possible, and reserves the right to modify the Application at any time and for any reason.

4.2 Charges: The Service Provider reserves the right to charge for the Application or its features. Any such charges will be clearly communicated to you in advance.

5. In-App Purchases

5.1 Items Offered: The Service Provider may offer certain features of the Application as in-app purchases through the App Store, as non-consumable items that remain active after a single payment. The features available for purchase and their prices are shown on the purchase screen within the Application and on the App Store product page. Features other than those shown are not included in the purchase.

5.2 Payment: The purchase price is charged to the payment method registered to your Apple Account (App Store account). Payment is processed by Apple, and the Service Provider does not collect any payment method information.

5.3 Restoring Purchases: If your purchase is not reflected after changing devices, reinstalling, or for any other reason, please use the “Restore Purchases” function in the Application. Purchases can be retrieved again using the same Apple Account used at the time of purchase.

5.4 Returns and Refunds: Given the nature of the items, the Service Provider cannot accept returns or cancellations at your convenience after a purchase has been completed. Refunds for incorrect charges or other reasons are handled through Apple’s (the App Store’s) prescribed process, and whether a refund is granted is determined by Apple.

5.5 Purchase Information: Information collected in connection with in-app purchases is handled as described in the Privacy Policy.

7.2 Disclaimer Regarding Advertisements: Advertisements are delivered under the responsibility of the relevant third-party provider. To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Service Provider makes no representation or warranty regarding the content, accuracy, safety, legality, or usefulness of such advertisements.

8. Connectivity and Your Device

8.1 Internet Connection: Some functions of the Application require an active internet connection, whether via Wi-Fi or a mobile network. The Service Provider is not responsible if the Application does not function at full capacity because you lack access to Wi-Fi or have exhausted your data allowance.

8.2 Data Charges: If you use the Application outside of a Wi-Fi area, your mobile network provider’s agreement still applies. You may therefore incur charges from your mobile provider for data usage, or other third-party charges. You accept responsibility for any such charges, including roaming charges if you use the Application outside your home territory without disabling data roaming.

8.3 Security of Your Device: It is your responsibility to maintain the security of your device and your access to the Application.

8.4 Jailbreaking and Rooting: The Service Provider strongly advises against jailbreaking or rooting your device, which involves removing software restrictions imposed by the official operating system of your device. Such actions compromise your device’s security and may result in the Application not functioning correctly or at all.

9. Disclaimers

9.1 Accuracy of Information: The Service Provider strives to keep the Application updated and accurate at all times, but relies in part on information provided by third parties. To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Service Provider accepts no liability for any loss, direct or indirect, that you experience as a result of relying entirely on the functionality of the Application.

9.2 No Warranty: The Application is provided “as is”. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, the Service Provider disclaims all warranties, whether express or implied, including merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement, and uninterrupted operation.

9.3 Your Data: The content you enter into the Application is stored on your device. The Service Provider does not retain a backup of that data. To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Service Provider is not responsible for any loss of that data resulting from device failure, loss, reset, or deletion of the Application.

9.4 Limitation for Consumer Contracts: Where you qualify as a consumer under the Japanese Consumer Contract Act, this Section and the other disclaimers in these Terms do not exclude the Service Provider’s liability for damages arising from its intentional misconduct or gross negligence.

10. Updates and Termination

10.1 Updates: The Service Provider may update the Application. Operating system requirements may change, and you may need to download updates in order to continue using the Application.

You agree to accept updates to the Application when they are offered to you.

10.2 Termination: The Service Provider may cease providing the Application at any time. Unless the Service Provider informs you otherwise, upon termination:
