Terms of Service

1. Acceptance of the Terms

By using the App, you confirm that you have read, understood, and agree to these Terms and to our Privacy Policy, which is incorporated into these Terms by reference. These Terms apply to every user of the App. If you are using the App on behalf of another person or entity, you represent that you are authorized to accept these Terms on their behalf.

2. Eligibility

You must be at least the age of digital consent in your jurisdiction (and in any event at least 13 years old, or 16 where required) and have the legal capacity to enter into a binding contract in order to use the App. If you are a minor, you may use the App only with the involvement and consent of a parent or legal guardian, who agrees to be bound by these Terms on your behalf. By using the App you represent and warrant that you meet these requirements.

3. The App and What It Does

The App is a utility that detects human faces in images you select and applies a blur or other obscuring effect to them, allowing you to save or share modified copies of those images. Face detection and image processing are performed using automated algorithms.

Automated face detection is imperfect and is provided for convenience only. The App may fail to detect one or more faces, may detect faces that are not present, may blur the wrong region, may apply a blur that is insufficient to prevent identification, or may otherwise produce incomplete or inaccurate results. You are solely responsible for reviewing every output image and verifying that it meets your needs before saving, sharing, publishing, or otherwise relying on it. Do not rely on the App as the sole means of anonymizing, redacting, or protecting the identity of any person.

4. License to Use the App

Subject to your compliance with these Terms, the Developer grants you a limited, personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable, revocable license to download and use one copy of the App on a device that you own or control, solely for your own personal, non-commercial purposes. All rights not expressly granted are reserved by the Developer.

5. Your Content and Your Responsibilities

The images and other materials you select, import, process, or create using the App (your “Content”) remain yours as between you and the Developer. The Developer does not claim ownership of your Content. You are solely and exclusively responsible for your Content and for how you use the App and its output. You represent and warrant that:

• you own or have all necessary rights, licenses, and permissions to use, process, and modify your Content, including any images of other people;
• you have obtained any consent required by law from every identifiable person appearing in your Content;
• your use of the App and your Content does not and will not infringe or violate the intellectual property, privacy, publicity, or other rights of any third party, or any applicable law or regulation; and
• you are solely responsible for maintaining your own backups of any images; the Developer is not responsible for any loss, deletion, or corruption of your images or data.

6. Acceptable Use

You agree that you will not, and will not attempt to:

• use the App for any unlawful, harmful, harassing, defamatory, abusive, or fraudulent purpose, or to stalk, threaten, or harm any person;
• use the App to process images you do not have the right to use, or to create, conceal, or distribute unlawful, infringing, or non-consensual material;
• reverse engineer, decompile, disassemble, modify, translate, or otherwise attempt to derive the source code of the App, except to the extent this restriction is prohibited by applicable law;
• copy, distribute, rent, lease, sell, sublicense, or otherwise commercially exploit the App or create derivative works of it;
• interfere with, disrupt, or attempt to gain unauthorized access to the App or any systems or networks connected to it, or circumvent any security or usage limits; or
• remove, obscure, or alter any proprietary notices in the App.

7. Intellectual Property

The App, including its software, design, user interface, graphics, logos, name, and all related intellectual property, is owned by the Developer or its licensors and is protected by applicable intellectual property laws. Except for the limited license granted above, these Terms do not transfer to you any right, title, or interest in or to the App.

8. Third-Party Services and App Stores

The App is made available through third-party platforms such as the Apple App Store and Google Play (each an “App Store”) and may use third-party services (for example, crash-reporting and diagnostics tools) to help operate and improve the App. Your use of any App Store or third-party service is subject to that party’s own terms and policies, and the Developer is not responsible for those parties, their services, or their acts or omissions.

You acknowledge that these Terms are between you and the Developer only, and not with any App Store. The Developer, not the App Store, is solely responsible for the App and its content, to the extent any responsibility exists under these Terms. To the maximum extent permitted by law, the App Stores have no obligation to furnish any maintenance or support for the App and no warranty or liability obligations with respect to the App. Apple Inc. and its subsidiaries are third-party beneficiaries of these Terms and, upon your acceptance, will have the right to enforce these Terms against you.

9. Fees

The App is currently provided free of charge. The Developer may, at its sole discretion and at any time, introduce paid features, subscriptions, or other charges. Any such fees will be disclosed to you before you incur them, and purchases are processed and governed by the applicable App Store. Except as required by law or the applicable App Store’s policies, all payments are non-refundable.

10. Disclaimer of Warranties

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, THE APP IS PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE,” WITH ALL FAULTS AND WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND. THE DEVELOPER EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMS ALL WARRANTIES AND CONDITIONS, WHETHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED, STATUTORY, OR OTHERWISE, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, ACCURACY, QUIET ENJOYMENT, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT.

WITHOUT LIMITING THE FOREGOING, THE DEVELOPER DOES NOT WARRANT THAT THE APP WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, TIMELY, SECURE, OR ERROR-FREE; THAT DEFECTS WILL BE CORRECTED; THAT FACE DETECTION OR BLURRING WILL BE ACCURATE, COMPLETE, OR SUFFICIENT FOR ANY PURPOSE; OR THAT THE APP WILL MEET YOUR REQUIREMENTS OR EXPECTATIONS. YOU USE THE APP AND ITS OUTPUT ENTIRELY AT YOUR OWN RISK. NO ADVICE OR INFORMATION, WHETHER ORAL OR WRITTEN, OBTAINED FROM THE DEVELOPER OR THROUGH THE APP, CREATES ANY WARRANTY NOT EXPRESSLY STATED IN THESE TERMS. SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OF CERTAIN WARRANTIES, SO SOME OF THE ABOVE EXCLUSIONS MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.

11. Limitation of Liability

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, IN NO EVENT WILL THE DEVELOPER BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR FOR ANY LOSS OF PROFITS, REVENUE, DATA, GOODWILL, IMAGES, OR OTHER INTANGIBLE LOSSES, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO YOUR USE OF OR INABILITY TO USE THE APP OR ITS OUTPUT — INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY FAILURE OF THE APP TO DETECT OR ADEQUATELY BLUR A FACE, OR ANY RESULTING DISCLOSURE OF ANY PERSON’S IDENTITY — WHETHER BASED ON WARRANTY, CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), STRICT LIABILITY, OR ANY OTHER LEGAL THEORY, AND WHETHER OR NOT THE DEVELOPER HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, THE DEVELOPER’S TOTAL CUMULATIVE LIABILITY FOR ALL CLAIMS ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THE APP OR THESE TERMS WILL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF (A) THE TOTAL AMOUNT YOU ACTUALLY PAID TO THE DEVELOPER FOR THE APP IN THE TWELVE (12) MONTHS PRECEDING THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM, OR (B) TEN U.S. DOLLARS (US$10.00). SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OR LIMITATION OF CERTAIN DAMAGES, SO SOME OF THE ABOVE LIMITATIONS MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU; NOTHING IN THESE TERMS LIMITS LIABILITY THAT CANNOT BE LIMITED UNDER APPLICABLE LAW.

12. Indemnification

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, you agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless the Developer from and against any and all claims, liabilities, damages, losses, and expenses (including reasonable legal fees) arising out of or in any way connected with: (a) your use or misuse of the App or its output; (b) your Content; (c) your violation of these Terms; or (d) your violation of any law or of any rights of any third party.

13. Changes to the App and to These Terms

The Developer may modify, suspend, or discontinue the App or any part of it at any time, with or without notice, and is not liable to you or any third party for doing so. The Developer may also update these Terms from time to time. When we do, we will revise the “Last updated” date above. Your continued use of the App after changes take effect constitutes your acceptance of the revised Terms. If you do not agree to the changes, you must stop using the App.

14. Termination

These Terms remain in effect while you use the App. The Developer may suspend or terminate your license to use the App at any time, for any reason or no reason, without notice or liability. You may terminate these Terms at any time by ceasing to use the App and deleting it from your devices. Provisions that by their nature should survive termination — including ownership, disclaimers, limitation of liability, indemnification, and governing law — will survive.

15. Governing Law

These Terms shall be governed by and construed in accordance with applicable law, without regard to conflict of law provisions.

16. General

• Entire agreement. These Terms, together with the Privacy Policy, are the entire agreement between you and the Developer regarding the App and supersede any prior agreements.
• Severability. If any provision of these Terms is held unenforceable, that provision will be limited or eliminated to the minimum extent necessary, and the remaining provisions will remain in full force and effect.
• No waiver. The Developer’s failure to enforce any provision is not a waiver of its right to do so later.
• Assignment. You may not assign or transfer these Terms. The Developer may assign them without restriction.

17. Contact

If you have any questions about these Terms, you can reach the Developer through the App’s listing on the App Store or Google Play, or via any in-app support option provided within the App.
