Terms of Use

1. Who Can Use StowQR

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 use the Service only with the involvement of a parent or guardian who agrees to these Terms.

2. Your Account

You need an account to use StowQR. You can sign in with Apple, Google, Facebook, or an email address. You are responsible for keeping your sign-in credentials secure and for activity that happens under your account. Tell us at contact@stowqr.com if you believe your account has been compromised.

3. License to Use the App

We grant you a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to install and use the StowQR app on devices you own or control, for your personal or internal business use, subject to these Terms and the usage rules of the store you got the app from. You may not copy, modify, reverse engineer, resell, or distribute the app, except where applicable law expressly permits it.

4. StowQR Pro, Subscriptions, and Purchases

StowQR Pro unlocks unlimited totes and every feature. Current plans and prices are listed on our pricing page and in the app.

• Billing. Purchases are processed by Apple through the App Store or by Google through Google Play, under that store's terms. Payment is charged to your store account when you confirm the purchase.
• Auto-renewal. Subscriptions renew automatically at the end of each period at the then-current price unless you cancel at least 24 hours before the period ends. You can manage or cancel a subscription in your App Store or Google Play account settings. Deleting the app does not cancel a subscription.
• Free trials. If a plan includes a free trial, you will be charged when the trial ends unless you cancel before then. Trial eligibility is determined by the store.
• Lifetime purchases. A lifetime purchase is a one-time payment that unlocks Pro for as long as we operate the Service, with no renewal.
• Refunds. Refunds are handled by the store that processed the payment, under its refund policies. We cannot issue refunds for store purchases directly.
• One account, every device. Pro is tied to your StowQR account, so a purchase on one platform unlocks Pro on every device where you sign in to that account.
• Price changes. We may change prices for future periods. The store will notify you in advance as its rules require.

5. Your Content

Totes, items, photos, notes, and other content you add to StowQR belong to you. You grant us a limited license to store, process, transmit, and display that content only as needed to operate the Service for you, including syncing it across your devices and running the AI features you choose to use. You are responsible for having the rights to the content you upload. You can export your inventory as a CSV file from the app at any time.

6. AI Features

Features such as Itemify send the photos you choose to a third-party AI provider (currently Google, through Firebase) to identify and describe items. AI output can be incomplete or wrong. Review the results before relying on them, and do not rely on StowQR as the only record for insurance claims, legal matters, or other decisions where accuracy matters.

7. Acceptable Use

You agree not to:

• use the Service for anything unlawful, or upload content you have no right to;
• upload content that is abusive, sexually exploitative, or infringes another person's rights;
• try to access other users' data, probe or disrupt our systems, or get around usage limits or the security protections built into the app;
• scrape, resell, or build a competing product from the Service, or use automated means to access it except through features we provide.

8. Ending Your Use of StowQR

You can stop using StowQR at any time and delete your account from within the app, which permanently deletes your data. We may suspend or end your access if you seriously or repeatedly break these Terms, or if we are required to by law. If we discontinue the Service, we will give reasonable notice so you can export your data. Sections 5, 10, 11, 12, and 13 survive termination.

9. Third-Party Services

The Service relies on third parties such as Google Firebase (hosting, sign-in, and AI), RevenueCat (purchase management), and Apple and Google (app distribution and payments). Their own terms and privacy policies apply to your use of their services. We are not responsible for services we do not control.

10. Disclaimers

The Service is provided "as is" and "as available". To the fullest extent permitted by law, we disclaim all warranties, express or implied, including warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement. We do not promise that the Service will be uninterrupted, error-free, or that data will never be lost. Keep your own backups of anything important.

11. Limitation of Liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, StowQR will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or for lost data, profits, or goodwill, arising from your use of the Service. Our total liability for any claim relating to the Service is limited to the greater of the amount you paid for the Service in the 12 months before the claim or US$50. Some jurisdictions do not allow these limits, so they may not apply to you. Nothing in these Terms limits rights you have as a consumer that cannot be waived under local law.

12. Indemnity

To the extent permitted by law, you agree to indemnify StowQR against claims arising from content you upload or from your violation of these Terms or of anyone else's rights.

13. Governing Law

These Terms are governed by the laws of the United States and of the state in which StowQR LLC is organized, without regard to conflict-of-law rules. If you live in a country whose consumer protection laws give you the right to bring a claim in your local courts, those rights are not affected.

14. Changes to These Terms

We may update these Terms from time to time. We will post the new version on this page and update the effective date, and for material changes we will give notice in the app or by email. If you keep using the Service after changes take effect, you accept the updated Terms.

15. Additional Terms for the Apple App Store

If you downloaded StowQR from the Apple App Store:

• These Terms are between you and StowQR only, not Apple. StowQR, not Apple, is solely responsible for the app and its content.
• Your license to use the app is limited to 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.
• StowQR is solely responsible for maintenance and support of the app. Apple has no obligation to provide any maintenance or support services for it.
• 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 attributable to a failure to conform to a warranty are StowQR's responsibility.
• StowQR, not Apple, is responsible for addressing any claims by you or a third party relating to the app or your possession and use of 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.
• If a third party claims that the app or your use of it infringes their intellectual property rights, StowQR, 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 of agreement when using the app.
• Apple and its subsidiaries are third-party beneficiaries of these Terms, and once you accept them, Apple has the right (and is deemed to have accepted the right) to enforce them against you as a third-party beneficiary.

16. Additional Terms for Google Play

If you downloaded StowQR from Google Play, your purchases are also subject to the Google Play Terms of Service. These Terms are between you and StowQR only, not Google, and StowQR is solely responsible for the app, its content, and its support.
