Legal
Terms of Service
These Terms apply to every mobile application published by SAHO Ventures Inc. on the Apple App Store or Google Play. By downloading or using one of our apps, you agree to these Terms and to our Privacy Policy.
1. Acceptance of these Terms
These Terms of Service ("Terms") are an agreement between you and SAHO Ventures Inc. ("SAHO Ventures," "we," "us," or "our"). They govern your use of any mobile application we publish, together with its related features, content, and services (each an "App," and together the "Apps").
Some Apps may have additional terms shown in the App or on its store listing ("Supplemental Terms"). Supplemental Terms form part of these Terms. If they conflict with these Terms, the Supplemental Terms control for that App.
If you do not agree to these Terms, do not download or use the Apps.
2. Eligibility
You must be at least 13 years old, or the minimum age required in your country, to use the Apps. If you are under the age of majority where you live, you may use the Apps only with the involvement and consent of a parent or legal guardian, who agrees to these Terms on your behalf. Some Apps may set a higher minimum age, which will be stated in the App or its store listing.
3. Accounts
Some Apps let you create an account, including by signing in with Apple, Google, or another provider. You agree to provide accurate information, keep your login credentials secure, and tell us promptly about any unauthorized use of your account. You are responsible for activity that happens under your account.
You can delete your account at any time from within the App, where available, or by contacting us as described in our Privacy Policy.
4. License to use the Apps
Subject to these Terms, we grant you a limited, personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to download, install, and use the Apps on devices you own or control, for your personal, non-commercial use, as permitted by the usage rules of the app store you obtained the App from.
The Apps are licensed, not sold. We and our licensors keep all rights not expressly granted to you.
5. Acceptable use
You agree not to:
- use the Apps in violation of any law or the rights of others;
- copy, modify, distribute, sell, or lease any part of the Apps, except as the law expressly allows;
- reverse engineer, decompile, or try to extract the source code of the Apps, except where the law prohibits this restriction;
- interfere with or disrupt the Apps or the servers and networks that support them, or attempt to bypass security or usage limits;
- access the Apps by automated means, such as bots or scrapers, without our written permission;
- upload or share content that is unlawful, harmful, harassing, hateful, sexually explicit involving minors, infringing, or deceptive;
- impersonate any person or misrepresent your affiliation with anyone; or
- use the Apps to build a competing product or service.
6. Your content
Some Apps let you create, upload, or store text, images, files, or other material ("Your Content"). You keep ownership of Your Content. You grant us a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free license to host, store, process, transmit, and display Your Content solely to operate, maintain, and improve the Apps and to provide them to you. This license ends when you delete Your Content or your account, except for copies kept in backups for a limited time or where we must keep them by law.
You are responsible for Your Content and confirm that you have the rights needed to share it. We may remove content that violates these Terms, but we are not obligated to monitor it.
7. Purchases and subscriptions
Some Apps offer paid downloads, in-app purchases, or auto-renewing subscriptions. All payments are processed by Apple or Google under their terms. We do not receive or store your payment card details.
- Subscriptions renew automatically at the end of each billing period unless you cancel at least 24 hours before the current period ends. Your account will be charged for renewal within 24 hours before the end of the current period.
- To cancel or manage a subscription, use your Apple ID settings on iOS or the Subscriptions section of the Google Play Store on Android. Deleting an App does not cancel a subscription.
- Free trials, if offered, convert to a paid subscription at the end of the trial unless you cancel before it ends. Any unused part of a free trial is forfeited when you purchase a subscription.
- Refunds are handled by Apple or Google under their refund policies. We cannot issue refunds for purchases made through their stores.
- Prices and features may change. We will give notice of price changes to existing subscriptions as required by the app store and applicable law.
Virtual items, credits, or in-app currency have no cash value and cannot be exchanged or transferred, except where the law requires otherwise.
8. Automated and AI features
Some Apps may include features that use automated processing or artificial intelligence, which may rely on third-party providers. Output from these features may be inaccurate, incomplete, or unsuitable for your purpose. You should review output before relying on it. Such output is not professional advice, including medical, legal, financial, or safety advice. You are responsible for how you use any output.
9. Third-party services
The Apps may link to, integrate with, or rely on services, content, or software provided by third parties, such as sign-in providers, maps, analytics, or payment platforms. Your use of those services is governed by the third party's own terms and privacy policies. We are not responsible for third-party services.
10. Intellectual property
The Apps and all related software, designs, text, graphics, logos, and trademarks, excluding Your Content, are owned by SAHO Ventures or our licensors and are protected by intellectual property laws. Nothing in these Terms gives you any right to use our names, logos, or trademarks.
If you send us feedback or suggestions, we may use them without restriction or obligation to you.
11. Updates and availability
We may update, change, suspend, or discontinue any App or feature at any time. Some updates may be required to keep using an App. We do not guarantee that the Apps will always be available, uninterrupted, or error-free, or that they will work on every device or operating system version.
12. Termination
You may stop using the Apps at any time. We may suspend or end your access to an App if you breach these Terms, if we are required to by law, or if we discontinue the App. When your access ends, the license in Section 4 ends, and you must stop using the App. Sections that by their nature should survive termination will survive, including Sections 6, 10, and 13 through 20.
13. Disclaimers
To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Apps are provided "as is" and "as available," without warranties of any kind, whether express, implied, or statutory, including implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, title, and non-infringement. We do not warrant that the Apps will meet your requirements, be secure, or be free of errors or harmful components.
Some jurisdictions do not allow certain warranty exclusions, so some of the above may not apply to you. You may have additional rights under local law, which these Terms do not limit.
14. Limitation of liability
To the fullest extent permitted by law, SAHO Ventures and its officers, directors, employees, and agents will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or for any loss of profits, data, goodwill, or use, arising out of or relating to the Apps or these Terms, even if advised of the possibility of such damages.
Our total liability for all claims relating to the Apps or these Terms will not exceed the greater of (a) the amount you paid us for the App involved in the claim during the 12 months before the claim arose, or (b) CA $50.
Nothing in these Terms limits liability that cannot be limited by law, such as liability for fraud, gross negligence, or death or personal injury caused by negligence.
15. Indemnification
To the extent permitted by law, you agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless SAHO Ventures from claims, losses, and expenses, including reasonable legal fees, arising from your misuse of the Apps, Your Content, or your violation of these Terms or of any law or third-party right.
16. Governing law and disputes
These Terms are governed by the laws of the Province of Alberta and the federal laws of Canada that apply there, without regard to conflict-of-laws rules. Any dispute arising from these Terms or the Apps will be brought exclusively in the courts located in the Province of Alberta, and you and we consent to their jurisdiction. Before filing a claim, you agree to contact us first so that we can try to resolve the issue informally.
If you are a consumer whose local law gives you the right to bring claims in your local courts or under your local consumer protection laws, including residents of Quebec, the European Union, and the United Kingdom, nothing in this section takes away those rights.
17. Apple App Store terms
If you downloaded an App from the Apple App Store, the following also apply:
- These Terms are between you and SAHO Ventures only, not Apple Inc. ("Apple"). SAHO Ventures, not Apple, is solely responsible for the App and its content.
- Your license to use the App is limited to use on Apple-branded products you own or control, as permitted by the Usage Rules in the Apple Media Services Terms and Conditions, except that the App may be accessed by other accounts associated with you through Family Sharing or volume purchasing.
- Apple has no obligation to provide any maintenance or support services for the App.
- If the App fails to conform to any applicable warranty, you may notify Apple, and Apple will refund the purchase price, if any, for the App. To the maximum extent permitted by law, Apple has no other warranty obligation with respect to the App. Any other claims, losses, liabilities, damages, costs, or expenses due to a failure to conform to a warranty are SAHO Ventures' responsibility, to the extent not disclaimed in these Terms.
- SAHO Ventures, not Apple, is responsible for addressing any claims by you or a third party relating to the App or your possession or use of it, including product liability claims, claims that the App fails to meet legal or regulatory requirements, and claims under consumer protection, privacy, or similar laws.
- If a third party claims that the App or your possession and use of it infringes their intellectual property rights, SAHO Ventures, not Apple, is solely responsible for the investigation, defense, settlement, and discharge of that claim.
- You represent that you are not located in a country subject to a U.S. Government embargo or designated as a "terrorist supporting" country, and that you are not on any U.S. Government list of prohibited or restricted parties.
- You must comply with applicable third-party terms when using the App.
- Apple and its subsidiaries are third-party beneficiaries of these Terms. Once you accept these Terms, Apple will have the right, and will be deemed to have accepted the right, to enforce these Terms against you as a third-party beneficiary.
Questions, complaints, or claims about the App should be sent to us using the details in Section 21.
18. Google Play terms
If you downloaded an App from Google Play, you acknowledge that these Terms are between you and SAHO Ventures only, not Google LLC ("Google"). Your use of the App must also comply with the Google Play Terms of Service. Google is not responsible for the App or its content.
19. Changes to these Terms
We may update these Terms from time to time. When we do, we will post the updated version on this page and change the effective date above. If a change is material, we will provide reasonable notice, such as through the App or by email. By continuing to use the Apps after the updated Terms take effect, you agree to them.
20. General
These Terms, together with our Privacy Policy and any Supplemental Terms, are the entire agreement between you and us about the Apps. If any provision is found unenforceable, the rest of the Terms remain in effect. Our failure to enforce a provision is not a waiver. You may not transfer your rights under these Terms without our consent; we may transfer ours, for example as part of a merger or acquisition. We are not liable for delays or failures caused by events beyond our reasonable control.
