Terms of Service

These terms are an agreement between you and Hossein Shahyari (“we”, “us”), Südostallee 122, 12487 Berlin, Germany — see the Impressum for full contact details — covering the {List} iPhone app and the website at list.shahyari.com (together, the “Service”). By downloading or using the app, you agree to them. If you don’t agree, please don’t use the app.

1. Your licence to use the app

We grant you a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable licence to use {List} on Apple devices that you own or control, in line with the App Store Terms of Service and Apple’s standard Licensed Application End User Licence Agreement. You may not copy, sell, rent, sublicense, reverse-engineer, or attempt to extract the source code of the app, except where that restriction is prohibited by law.

We keep all rights in the app that aren’t expressly granted here, including its name, logo, design, and code.

2. Age requirement

You must be at least 13 years old to use the Service. If you are under the age of majority where you live, you may only use it with the involvement of a parent or guardian who agrees to these terms.

3. Purchases

If {List} is offered as a paid app or contains paid features, all purchases are handled by Apple through the App Store, under Apple’s terms and using the payment method on your Apple Account. We do not process or see your payment details. Refunds are requested from Apple, not from us, and are subject to Apple’s policies. Prices may change for future purchasers; a change never retroactively charges you for something you have already bought.

4. Your content

Your lists, items, notes, prices, profile details, and photo are yours. We claim no ownership of them. They always live on your device first; if you sign in with Apple, they may also sync to your own private iCloud, as described in the Privacy Policy — either way, we cannot see them.

You are responsible for keeping your content safe. If you haven't signed in, deleting the app, losing or resetting the device, or restoring it without a backup will delete that data permanently, and we have no way to recover it for you. Signing in and syncing gives you a copy in your own iCloud as a safety net, but that account and its data are still yours to manage, not ours.

5. Acceptable use

{List} is a private, single-user app: there is no way to publish content, and nothing you type is shared with other users or with us. You still agree not to use the Service to break the law, and not to interfere with, disrupt, or attempt to gain unauthorised access to the app, the website, or the devices of others.

6. Availability and changes

We may add, change, or remove features, and may stop distributing or supporting the app altogether. We’ll try to give reasonable notice of anything significant through the app’s release notes or this website, but we don’t guarantee that the Service, or any particular feature, will remain available.

Some features depend on Apple’s services and on your device’s operating system. We’re not responsible if a change on Apple’s side affects how the app works.

7. Disclaimer

The Service is provided “as is” and “as available”, without warranties of any kind, whether express or implied, including any implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement. We do not warrant that the app will be uninterrupted, error-free, or free of defects, or that any data it stores will be preserved. Prices, totals, and other figures shown in the app are calculated from what you enter and are for your own convenience only — check them yourself before relying on them.

Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion of certain warranties, so parts of this section may not apply to you.

8. Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, we will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or for any loss of data, profits, or goodwill, arising from your use of or inability to use the Service. Our total liability for any claim relating to the Service is limited to the amount you paid for the app in the twelve months before the claim, or, if you paid nothing, to zero.

Nothing in these terms limits liability that cannot be limited by law, including liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence, or for fraud. Some jurisdictions do not allow certain limitations, so parts of this section may not apply to you.

9. Apple

Apple is not a party to these terms and is not responsible for the app or its content. Apple has no obligation to provide any support or maintenance for {List}. In the event of a third-party claim that the app infringes their intellectual property rights, that claim is our responsibility, not Apple’s. Apple and its subsidiaries are third-party beneficiaries of these terms and may enforce them against you.

10. Termination

You can end this agreement at any time by deleting the app from your devices. We may suspend or end your licence if you materially breach these terms. Sections 4 and 7 through 12 survive the end of the agreement.

11. Changes to these terms

We may update these terms as the app changes. When we do, the effective date at the top will be updated, and material changes will be noted in the app’s release notes or on this website. Continuing to use the Service after a change means you accept the updated terms.

12. Governing law

These terms are governed by the laws of Germany, without regard to its conflict-of-law rules, and, to the extent legally permitted, the courts of Berlin will have exclusive jurisdiction over any dispute. If you are a consumer, this does not deprive you of the protection of the mandatory consumer laws of the country you live in.
