Terms of Service

Last updated: October 1, 2025

1. Acceptance of Terms

By accessing and using DocxBuddy, you accept and agree to be bound by the terms and provision of this agreement.

2. Acknowledgement

This End-User License Agreement ("EULA") is a binding agreement between you (the "End-User") and DocxBuddy ("Developer" or "we" or "us"). This EULA governs your use of the DocxBuddy application (the "Licensed Application"), including all related documentation.

The parties acknowledge that this EULA is concluded between the End-User and the Developer only, and not with Apple Inc. ("Apple"). The Developer, not Apple, is solely responsible for the Licensed Application and the content thereof.

This EULA may not provide usage rules for the Licensed Application that are in conflict with the applicable App Store Terms of Service (the "Usage Rules") as of the Effective Date, which End-User acknowledges having had the opportunity to read.

3. Scope of License

Subject to the terms of this EULA, the Developer grants you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to:

  • Download, install, and use the Licensed Application on any Apple-branded products that you own or control and as permitted by the Usage Rules set forth in the App Store Terms of Service
  • Access and use the Licensed Application via Family Sharing or volume purchasing, where applicable

This is the grant of a license, not a transfer of title. Under this license you may not:

  • Modify, translate, reverse engineer, decompile, disassemble, or create derivative works based on the Licensed Application
  • Copy the Licensed Application except as expressly permitted by this license and the Usage Rules
  • Rent, lease, lend, sell, redistribute, or sublicense the Licensed Application
  • Remove, alter, or obscure any copyright, trademark, or other proprietary rights notice on or in the Licensed Application
  • Use the Licensed Application for any unlawful purpose

4. Technical Requirements

The Licensed Application requires a compatible Apple-branded device and internet connection. The Developer does not warrant that the Licensed Application will be compatible with all devices or operating system versions.

5. Maintenance and Support

The Developer is solely responsible for providing any maintenance and support services with respect to the Licensed Application as required under applicable law, or as otherwise set forth in this EULA. You acknowledge that Apple has no obligation whatsoever to furnish any maintenance and support services with respect to the Licensed Application.

For support inquiries, please contact us at the contact information provided in Section 18 of this EULA.

6. Warranty

The Developer warrants that the Licensed Application will conform to the description of it provided at the time of your download and for a reasonable time thereafter. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, any warranty that is provided in connection with the Licensed Application is for your benefit only.

In the event of any failure of the Licensed Application to conform to any applicable warranty, you may notify Apple, and Apple will refund the purchase price for the Licensed Application to you (if applicable). To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, Apple will have no other warranty obligation whatsoever with respect to the Licensed Application. Any other claims, losses, liabilities, damages, costs, or expenses attributable to any failure to conform to any warranty will be the sole responsibility of the Developer.

THE LICENSED APPLICATION IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND. TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, THE DEVELOPER DISCLAIMS ALL WARRANTIES, WHETHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED, OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT.

7. Product Claims

The Developer, not Apple, is responsible for addressing any claims by you or any third party relating to the Licensed Application or your possession and/or use of the Licensed Application, including, but not limited to:

  • Product liability claims
  • Any claim that the Licensed Application fails to conform to any applicable legal or regulatory requirement
  • Claims arising under consumer protection, privacy, or similar legislation

This EULA does not limit the Developer's liability to you beyond what is permitted by applicable law.

8. Intellectual Property Rights

The Developer and you acknowledge that, in the event of any third-party claim that the Licensed Application or your possession and use of the Licensed Application infringes that third party's intellectual property rights, the Developer, not Apple, will be solely responsible for the investigation, defense, settlement, and discharge of any such intellectual property infringement claim to the extent required by this EULA.

9. Legal Compliance

You represent and warrant that:

  • You are not located in a country that is subject to a U.S. Government embargo, or that has been designated by the U.S. Government as a "terrorist supporting" country
  • You are not listed on any U.S. Government list of prohibited or restricted parties

10. Third-Party Terms of Agreement

You must comply with applicable third-party terms of agreement when using the Licensed Application (e.g., if you use the Licensed Application while connected to a wireless network, you must comply with the terms of your wireless data service agreement).

11. Third-Party Beneficiary

The Developer and you acknowledge and agree that Apple, and Apple's subsidiaries, are third-party beneficiaries of this EULA, and that, upon your acceptance of the terms and conditions of this EULA, Apple will have the right (and will be deemed to have accepted the right) to enforce this EULA against you as a third-party beneficiary thereof.

12. Subscriptions and Billing

12.1 Auto-Renewal

Our services are offered on an auto-renewing subscription basis (e.g., monthly, yearly). By purchasing a subscription, you authorize the App Store to charge your account at the rate applicable to your chosen plan. Your subscription will automatically renew unless auto-renew is turned off at least 24 hours before the end of the current period.

12.2 Billing and Price Changes

All billing is handled by Apple, Inc. through your App Store account. The price of the subscription is clearly displayed on the purchase screen. DocxBuddy reserves the right to adjust pricing for subscriptions at any time, but we will provide you with reasonable notice of any price change before it takes effect.

12.3 Cancellations and Refunds

You may cancel your subscription renewal at any time through your Apple ID Account Settings. Refunds are handled entirely by Apple and are subject to the App Store's terms and conditions. We cannot process refunds directly.

13. Data Privacy and Security

DocxBuddy is committed to protecting your data privacy. We use self-hosted AI models to ensure your documents never leave our secure servers. All data processing is performed locally on our infrastructure. For more information about how we collect, use, and protect your data, please refer to our Privacy Policy.

14. User Accounts

When you create an account with us, you must provide information that is accurate, complete, and current at all times. You are responsible for safeguarding the password and for all activities that occur under your account.

15. Prohibited Uses

You may not use our service:

  • For any unlawful purpose or to solicit others to perform unlawful acts
  • To violate any international, federal, provincial, or state regulations, rules, laws, or local ordinances
  • To infringe upon or violate our intellectual property rights or the intellectual property rights of others
  • To harass, abuse, insult, harm, defame, slander, disparage, intimidate, or discriminate
  • To submit false or misleading information
  • To upload or transmit viruses or any other type of malicious code
  • To interfere with or circumvent the security features of the Licensed Application

16. Service Availability

We strive to provide continuous service availability, but we do not guarantee that our service will be available at all times. We may experience hardware, software, or other problems or need to perform maintenance related to the service, resulting in interruptions, delays, or errors.

17. Limitation of Liability

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, IN NO EVENT SHALL THE DEVELOPER OR ITS SUPPLIERS BE LIABLE FOR ANY SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, INDIRECT, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES WHATSOEVER (INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, DAMAGES FOR LOSS OF PROFITS, LOSS OF DATA OR OTHER INFORMATION, FOR BUSINESS INTERRUPTION, FOR PERSONAL INJURY, LOSS OF PRIVACY ARISING OUT OF OR IN ANY WAY RELATED TO THE USE OF OR INABILITY TO USE THE LICENSED APPLICATION, THIRD-PARTY SOFTWARE AND/OR THIRD-PARTY HARDWARE USED WITH THE LICENSED APPLICATION, OR OTHERWISE IN CONNECTION WITH ANY PROVISION OF THIS EULA), EVEN IF THE DEVELOPER OR ANY SUPPLIER HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES AND EVEN IF THE REMEDY FAILS OF ITS ESSENTIAL PURPOSE.

Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages, so the above limitation or exclusion may not apply to you.

18. Termination

This EULA is effective until terminated by you or the Developer. Your rights under this EULA will terminate automatically without notice from the Developer if you fail to comply with any term(s) of this EULA. Upon termination of this EULA, you shall cease all use of the Licensed Application and delete all copies of the Licensed Application from your devices.

19. Governing Law

This EULA is governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of California, United States, excluding its conflicts of law rules. You irrevocably submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts in that state or location.

20. Severability

If any provision of this EULA is held to be unenforceable or invalid, such provision will be changed and interpreted to accomplish the objectives of such provision to the greatest extent possible under applicable law, and the remaining provisions will continue in full force and effect.

21. Changes to Terms

We reserve the right, at our sole discretion, to modify or replace these Terms at any time. If a revision is material, we will try to provide at least 30 days notice prior to any new terms taking effect. What constitutes a material change will be determined at our sole discretion.
