Minimal Digital Clock – Terms of Service

1. Scope and Acceptance

These Terms are a legal agreement between you and the developer of Minimal Digital Clock regarding your use of the App and related services. The App includes digital clock, timers, themes, atmosphere effects, online background music and images, and other features we may update from time to time.

We may publish additional rules or supplemental terms for specific features or promotions. If there is a conflict, the supplemental terms prevail for that feature. These Terms together with our Privacy Policy govern your use of the App.

2. Description of Service

• The App is primarily a local clock and timing tool; some resources (e.g., music, images) require an internet connection.
• We strive to keep the service stable but do not guarantee uninterrupted, error-free, or fully satisfactory operation.
• We may suspend or interrupt parts of the service for maintenance, upgrades, network issues, or force majeure, and will try to notify you when reasonable.
• Displayed time is based on your device system clock; we are not responsible for inaccuracies caused by incorrect device time.

3. Accounts and Membership

• Some features (e.g., sign-in, membership benefits) are optional; basic clock features are available without an account.
• You are responsible for safeguarding your account and for activities under your account. Contact us promptly if you notice unauthorized use.
• Membership / VIP: If you purchase a subscription or in-app purchase through the Apple App Store, Google Play, or other official channels, the transaction is governed by that platform’s terms. Pricing, billing period, auto-renewal, and cancellation are as shown at purchase and in the platform’s settings.
• Auto-renewable subscriptions renew unless canceled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period in your platform account settings.
• Refund requests must follow the policy of the platform where you purchased (e.g., Apple). We may assist where permitted by law.

4. Acceptable Use

When using the App, you agree not to:

• Violate applicable laws or infringe others’ rights;
• Reverse engineer, decompile, crack, scrape, or disrupt the App;
• Distribute malware, spam, or engage in fraud through the App;
• Access our servers, APIs, or data without authorization;
• Abuse membership benefits or circumvent payment mechanisms.

We may warn, restrict features, suspend, or terminate access for violations.

5. Intellectual Property

• Software, UI, icons, text, audio, skins, and online resources in the App are owned by us or our licensors.
• No rights are granted except as expressly stated. You may not copy, modify, distribute, or use content for commercial purposes without written permission.
• If you believe content in the App infringes your rights, contact us with proof of ownership; we will handle it in accordance with applicable law.

6. Online Content and Third-Party Services

• Online music, images, and similar resources are provided for personal, non-commercial use.
• Third-party sign-in (e.g., WeChat) is provided by the respective third party and subject to their terms and privacy policies; we are not responsible for third-party services.
• The App may link to third-party websites; we are not responsible for their content or privacy practices.

7. Disclaimer

The App is provided “as is” and “as available.” To the fullest extent permitted by law, we disclaim warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement, uninterrupted service, and freedom from harmful components.

Timing and reminder features are for general assistance only and do not constitute medical, legal, financial, or other professional advice. We are not liable for losses arising from reliance on the App’s timing results.

8. Limitation of Liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, we and our affiliates are not liable for indirect, incidental, special, punitive, or consequential damages arising from use or inability to use the App.

Our total liability to you for any claim shall not exceed the amount you paid us for the relevant service in the twelve (12) months before the claim (or USD 15 if you paid nothing), except where applicable law requires otherwise.

9. Changes and Termination

• We may update, modify, or discontinue features and will notify you by reasonable means such as in-app notice or website announcement.
• You may stop using and uninstall the App at any time to end these Terms.
• We may suspend or terminate service if you materially breach these Terms.

10. Privacy

Our handling of personal information is described in the Privacy Policy. By using the App, you acknowledge that you have read and understood it.

11. Children

The App is intended primarily for adults. Minors should use the App only with guardian consent and supervision. Contact us if you have concerns about a minor’s use.

12. Governing Law and Disputes

These Terms are governed by the laws of the People’s Republic of China (excluding conflict-of-law rules), except where mandatory local law in your jurisdiction applies to consumer rights.

Disputes should first be resolved through good-faith negotiation. If negotiation fails, either party may bring a claim before a court of competent jurisdiction at the developer’s location, unless mandatory consumer protection law in your country requires a different forum.
