Please read them, especially the parts in bold: they include limits on our liability and things you are responsible for. By agreeing to them or using the app, you accept them. If you don't agree, please don't use the app.
1. Who we are
ReptiDeck ("the app") is offered by Deng Liangjie, a sole proprietor doing business as Guiyang Yunyan District Xiangsu Yueqian Network Studio, a business registered in China (unified social credit code 92520103MAKRY2A88L), address: Shop 8, Floor 1, Building 3, Guixin Garden, 58 Zhaiji Road, Yanwujie Subdistrict, Yunyan District, Guiyang, Guizhou, China ("we", "us").
The Subscription Terms are part of these terms. The Privacy Policy explains how we handle personal information.
These terms are ReptiDeck's end user license agreement. They apply instead of Apple's standard Licensed Application End User License Agreement. Section 15 adds the terms Apple requires.
2. Who can use it
- You can use the app at any age without an account. To create an account you must be at least 13 (at least 14 in Quebec).
- If you are under the age of majority where you live, a parent or guardian must agree to these terms for you and is responsible for your purchases.
- If you use the app for a business, such as a breeding operation, you accept these terms for that business too.
3. What ReptiDeck is
ReptiDeck is a record-keeping tool for reptile keepers: animal profiles, care records, reminders, growth, enclosures and racks, breeding, a gene calculator and morph guide, feeder stock, income and expenses, and share cards. Some features need a paid plan.
It is a tool for records and calculations only:
- It is not a marketplace. We don't list animals, connect buyers and sellers, take payment or take any part in a sale, gift or shipment between you and anyone else.
- It is not veterinary care. Nothing in it is a diagnosis or treatment.
4. Your account
- You don't need an account. Without one, your records stay on this iPhone. Cloud sync needs an account and Keeper PRO or Breeder MAX.
- You can sign in with an email address and password, Sign in with Apple or Sign in with Google. Use an address you control and keep your password to yourself. Tell us at once if you think someone else has used your account.
- An account is for one person (or one business). Don't share, sell or transfer it.
- You can delete your account at any time: Me → Settings → Account → Delete account. Your account and cloud copy are then deleted and can't be restored. Deleting it does not cancel an App Store subscription; cancel that in iPhone Settings.
5. Your data
- What you enter and the photos you add are yours. You let us store, copy and send them only as needed to run the app for you, such as syncing them between your devices. This permission ends when you delete them or your account.
- Without sync, your data exists only on your iPhone. Losing or resetting the phone, or deleting the app, can lose it. Back up regularly with Me → Settings → Data → Back up to a file.
- If you enter other people's details, such as a buyer's name and contact, you are responsible for having the right to do so.
- The Privacy Policy explains how we handle personal information.
6. Keeping, breeding and selling animals lawfully
This section concerns your own legal responsibility.
Many reptiles are protected or regulated, and the rules differ by country, state, province and city. You must know and follow the laws that apply to you. In the United States these can include the Lacey Act, the Endangered Species Act and state wildlife and pet laws; in Canada, the Wild Animal and Plant Protection and Regulation of International and Interprovincial Trade Act and provincial wildlife laws; everywhere, the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species (CITES), local bylaws and carriers' rules for shipping live animals.
In particular, you agree that:
- your animals come from lawful sources, and you hold any permit, license or paperwork that keeping, breeding, selling, buying or moving them requires;
- you will not use the app in any illegal wildlife trade, including animals taken from the wild unlawfully, smuggling, or false permits or papers;
- you will not release animals into the wild or neglect or mistreat them;
- you will ship live animals only as the law and the carrier allow.
Sale status, prices, buyers, sale posters, price lists, handover sheets, lineage cards and labels are only for recording and presenting your own information. Using them does not make a sale lawful, and we don't check or vouch for any sale. Genetics on a lineage card are as you declare them; you are responsible for what you tell buyers.
7. Using the app fairly
You must not:
- use the app to break the law or harm anyone;
- copy, decompile, reverse engineer or modify the app, except as the law allows despite this limit;
- get around its security, plan checks or the limits of our cloud service, or use automated means to create accounts or reach our servers;
- upload unlawful content, or use our cloud for anything other than your own records.
8. Care information and its limits
The following is general information. It can be wrong, out of date or wrong for your animal, so use your own judgment:
- feeding plans, prey sizes, temperature and humidity ranges, breeding weights, incubation settings and expected dates are common figures from public sources;
- risk scores and alerts are worked out only from what you record and are not a diagnosis; no alert doesn't mean an animal is healthy;
- gene odds and the morph guide are theoretical, from public sources; real clutches can differ, and nothing in the app identifies or guarantees any animal's genetics;
- reminders can fail to appear because of iPhone settings or limits; don't rely on them alone.
If an animal seems unwell, see a qualified reptile veterinarian promptly.
9. Paid plans
Keeper PRO and Breeder MAX are sold through the App Store. The Subscription Terms cover plans, prices, auto-renewal, cancellation and refunds.
10. Our rights in the app
The app's software, design, pixel art, text and compiled data belong to us or our licensors. We give you a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to use the app under these terms. You may share the cards and documents it makes for you.
Open-source components and fonts are used under their own licenses, listed in the app (Me → Settings → About).
If you send us ideas or feedback, we may use them without owing you anything.
11. Changes, interruptions and the end of the service
- We may change, add or remove features. If a change clearly takes away something you paid for, the Subscription Terms apply.
- Cloud services can be interrupted for maintenance, by network or provider failures or by events beyond our control; we restore them as soon as we can. Data on your iPhone stays usable.
- If we decide to stop offering ReptiDeck, we will announce it in the app and on our website at least 60 days ahead, so you can export your data.
- If you seriously break these terms, we may suspend or close your account and will tell you why, unless the law prevents us. Your App Store purchases stay with your Apple Account, and closing your account does not cancel a subscription. You can stop using the app at any time.
12. Disclaimer
To the extent the law allows, the app is provided "as is" and "as available". We don't promise that it will be error-free, uninterrupted or right for your needs, and we disclaim implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose and non-infringement.
13. Limits on our liability
To the extent the law allows, we are not liable for indirect, incidental, special or consequential losses, for data lost because it was not backed up, for decisions you make relying on the information in section 8, for your dealings with buyers, sellers or anyone else, or for your breaking the law. Our total liability to you for any claim about the app is limited to the greater of what you paid for ReptiDeck plans in the 12 months before the claim and 50 US dollars (or 50 Canadian dollars in Canada).
These limits do not apply to liability that the law does not allow to be limited, such as for fraud, gross negligence, intentional harm, or death or personal injury caused by negligence.
14. Your rights as a consumer
Nothing in these terms takes away rights you have as a consumer under the law where you live that can't be waived by agreement. Some places don't allow some of the disclaimers and limits in sections 12 and 13, so they may not apply to you. If you live in Quebec, the Quebec Consumer Protection Act applies, and sections 12 and 13 apply only as far as that act allows.
15. Terms for the Apple App Store
If you got the app from Apple's App Store, these terms also apply:
1. These terms are between you and us only, not Apple. We, not Apple, are solely responsible for the app and its content.
2. Your license to the app is non-transferable and limited to using it on Apple-branded products that you own or control, as the Usage Rules in Apple's Media Services Terms and Conditions allow, including use by other accounts in your purchaser's Family Sharing group where allowed.
3. We, not Apple, provide maintenance and support for the app. Apple has no obligation to furnish any maintenance or support services for it.
4. If the app fails to conform to any applicable warranty, you may notify Apple, and Apple will refund the purchase price for the app, if any. To the maximum extent the law allows, Apple has no other warranty obligation for the app; any other claims, losses, liabilities, damages, costs or expenses from a failure to conform to a warranty are ours to deal with under these terms.
5. We, not Apple, are responsible for addressing any claims by you or a third party relating to the app or your having or using it, including product liability claims, claims that the app fails to meet any legal or regulatory requirement, and claims under consumer protection, privacy or similar laws.
6. If a third party claims that the app, or your having or using it, infringes its intellectual property rights, we, not Apple, are solely responsible for investigating, defending, settling and discharging that claim.
7. You represent and warrant that you are not located in a country that is subject to a US Government embargo or that the US Government has designated as a "terrorist supporting" country, and that you are not on any US Government list of prohibited or restricted parties.
8. Questions, complaints or claims about the app go to us: Deng Liangjie, Guiyang Yunyan District Xiangsu Yueqian Network Studio, Shop 8, Floor 1, Building 3, Guixin Garden, 58 Zhaiji Road, Yanwujie Subdistrict, Yunyan District, Guiyang, Guizhou, China, support@reptideck.com.
9. You must comply with any third-party terms that apply when you use the app, such as your wireless data service agreement.
10. Apple and Apple's subsidiaries are third-party beneficiaries of these terms. Once you accept these terms, Apple has the right (and is deemed to have accepted the right) to enforce them against you as a third-party beneficiary.
16. Governing law and disputes
If you live in Canada, these terms are governed by the laws of your province or territory and the federal laws of Canada that apply there. If you live in the United States, they are governed by the laws of your state and US federal law.
Please contact us first; most problems can be solved quickly by email. If we can't solve it, you can bring a claim in the courts where you live, including small claims court. There is no arbitration clause and no class action waiver in these terms.
California users: under California Civil Code section 1789.3, you may contact the Complaint Assistance Unit of the Division of Consumer Services of the California Department of Consumer Affairs in writing at 1625 North Market Blvd., Suite N 112, Sacramento, CA 95834, or by telephone at (800) 952-5210. The app is free to download; the prices of paid plans are shown in the app before you buy.
17. Changes to these terms
We may update these terms and post them in the app and on our website. For an important change to your rights or obligations, the app will ask you to agree again before it applies to you. If you don't agree, you can stop using the app and delete your account.
18. General
- If any part of these terms can't be enforced, the rest still applies.
- If we don't enforce a part straight away, we can still enforce it later.
- We may transfer these terms to a new owner of the app, who must keep to them; we will tell you first. You may not transfer them without our agreement.
