Legal

Terms of use

What you can expect from us, and the small number of things we ask in return.

These terms are written plainly rather than in legal language, and they are not legal advice. Have them reviewed before you rely on them commercially.

Last updated .

1. Who you are dealing with

These terms cover the apps published by Veyla Studios, an independent software studio based in Canada, and this website. Using an app or the site means you accept them. If you do not, the remedy is simple: do not use them.

2. Your licence to use the apps

You get a personal, non-exclusive licence to install and use our apps on devices you own or control, for as long as you follow these terms. The apps are licensed, not sold, and we keep ownership of the software itself.

You agree not to:

  • Copy, resell or redistribute the apps as your own.
  • Take them apart to rebuild a competing product from the pieces.
  • Work around licence checks or paid-tier limits.
  • Use them to break the law, or to strip protection from content you do not own.

3. Your content stays yours

Everything you write, import or open in our apps belongs to you. We claim no ownership over it, no licence to it, and no right to use it. Because it is stored on your device, keeping a backup is your responsibility, and every app gives you a way to make one.

4. Other people's content

Our apps open files you already have. You are responsible for having the right to use them, and for respecting the copyright of anything you read, edit, convert or publish with our tools. We do not supply books or other copyrighted material, and features that repair or convert files exist for content you are entitled to use.

5. Plans, billing and cancelling

Some apps offer a paid tier. Prices are shown in the app before you are asked for anything. Purchases are handled by the app store you installed from, which means:

  • The store charges you, not us, and their payment terms apply.
  • Subscriptions renew until you cancel them in your store account.
  • Refunds follow the store's refund policy.

If a paid tier ends, the app returns to its free tier. Your content is not deleted, locked or held back, and you can still export all of it.

6. What the free tier means

The free tier is a real product with no time limit. We will not move a feature that shipped as free behind a paywall in a later version. If a genuinely new capability arrives with a running cost attached, it may be paid, and what you already had keeps working.

7. Accounts

Where an account exists, keep your sign-in details to yourself and let us know if you think someone else has them. We may suspend an account that is being used to abuse the service or to work around payment, and we will tell you why.

8. Updates and changes

We improve the apps over time, which sometimes means features change, and occasionally means one is removed because it cannot be kept working safely. Where a change materially affects how you use an app, we will say so in the release notes rather than let you discover it.

9. What we cannot promise

The apps are provided as they are. We test on real devices and take reliability seriously, but we cannot guarantee that software will be free of faults, that it will run on every device, or that it will never lose data. Keep backups of anything you would be upset to lose. To the extent the law allows, our liability is limited to what you paid us in the twelve months before the problem, and nothing in these terms removes rights you have as a consumer that cannot legally be removed.

10. Third party services

When you connect an app to a cloud service you own, that service's own terms apply to what happens on their side. We are not responsible for outages, deletions or policy changes made by a provider you chose.

11. Ending it

You can stop using our apps at any time by uninstalling them, and cancel any plan through your app store. We may end this licence if these terms are seriously or repeatedly broken.

12. Governing law

These terms are governed by the laws of Canada and the province in which Veyla Studios is established, without affecting consumer protections available where you live.
