Terms of Service
These Terms of Service (“Terms”) are an agreement between you and 1732 Studios, LLC (“1732 Studios,” “we,” “us,” or “our”), a Georgia limited liability company. They govern your use of our iPhone and iPad applications (the “Apps”) and our website at 1732studios.com (the “Site,” and together with the Apps, the “Services”).
By downloading, installing, or using the Services, you agree to these Terms and to our Privacy Policy. If you don't agree, please don't use the Services.
1. The apps and your license
Subject to these Terms, we grant you a personal, limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable, revocable license to download and use one copy of each App on Apple-branded devices that you own or control, for your own personal, non-commercial use, as permitted by the App Store's Usage Rules. We reserve all rights not expressly granted.
Each App includes a free sample and an optional one-time in-app purchase (the “Complete Edition”) that unlocks the full work and features. This is a license to use the App and its content — you do not acquire ownership of the App or the content.
2. What you agree not to do
You agree not to:
- copy, redistribute, resell, rent, lease, lend, or sublicense the Apps or their content, except as the App Store expressly permits;
- reverse engineer, decompile, or disassemble the Apps, or attempt to derive their source code, except to the extent this restriction is prohibited by applicable law;
- remove, alter, or obscure any copyright, trademark, or other proprietary notices;
- circumvent, disable, or interfere with security or licensing features, or use the Services to violate any law or infringe anyone's rights;
- extract or scrape the Services' content for redistribution or to build a competing product.
3. Purchases, pricing, and refunds
In-app purchases are one-time and non-consumable — there is no subscription and no recurring charge. All purchases are sold and processed by Apple through the App Store and billed to your Apple ID. Prices are shown in the App and may change; any launch pricing is for a limited time. Because Apple is the merchant of record, all payments, refunds, and billing questions are handled by Apple under the Apple Media Services Terms. To request a refund, use Apple's process at reportaproblem.apple.com.
4. Intellectual property and content
The Apps, the Site, our software, designs, branding (including “1732 Studios” and our marks), and our original editorial material — including our own translations, annotations, grammar notes, and layout — are owned by 1732 Studios and protected by intellectual-property laws. The underlying literary source texts are in the public domain, and English translations are either recognized public-domain translations or authored by us; we identify the provenance within each App. These Terms don't grant you any right in our trademarks.
5. Apple App Store terms
Because the Apps are distributed through Apple's App Store, the following apply. These Terms are between you and 1732 Studios only, not with Apple, and Apple is not responsible for the Apps or their content.
- Apple has no obligation to provide maintenance or support for the Apps. We — not Apple — are solely responsible for the Apps and any support you request; contact us at [email protected].
- If an App fails to conform to any applicable warranty, you may notify Apple, and Apple may refund the purchase price (if any). To the maximum extent permitted by law, Apple has no other warranty obligation, and any other claims, losses, liabilities, damages, costs, or expenses attributable to a failure to conform to a warranty are our responsibility.
- We, not Apple, are responsible for addressing any claims relating to the Apps, including product-liability claims, claims that an App fails to conform to a legal or regulatory requirement, and claims arising under consumer-protection or similar law.
- In the event of any third-party claim that an App or your use of it infringes that party's intellectual-property rights, we — not Apple — are 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 “terrorist-supporting,” and that you are not on any U.S. Government list of prohibited or restricted parties.
- Apple and its subsidiaries are third-party beneficiaries of these Terms and, upon your acceptance, have the right to enforce them against you.
6. Disclaimers
The Services are provided “as is” and “as available,” without warranties of any kind, whether express, implied, or statutory, including any implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement. We do not warrant that the Services will be uninterrupted, error-free, or free of harmful components, or that any language-learning or pronunciation feedback will be accurate or fit for any particular purpose. Some jurisdictions don't allow certain warranty exclusions, so some of the above may not apply to you.
7. Limitation of liability
To the maximum extent permitted by law, 1732 Studios and its members and personnel will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary, or punitive damages, or for any loss of data, profits, or goodwill, arising out of or relating to the Services, even if advised of the possibility. To the maximum extent permitted by law, our total liability for any claim relating to the Services will not exceed the greater of the amount you paid us for the App giving rise to the claim in the twelve months before the claim or ten U.S. dollars (US$10). Some jurisdictions don't allow certain limitations, so some of the above may not apply to you.
8. Indemnity
To the extent permitted by law, you agree to indemnify and hold harmless 1732 Studios from any claims, damages, and expenses (including reasonable legal fees) arising out of your misuse of the Services or your violation of these Terms or applicable law.
9. Termination
These Terms apply while you use the Services. Your license ends automatically if you breach them; you may end it any time by deleting the Apps. Sections that by their nature should survive — including intellectual property, disclaimers, limitation of liability, indemnity, and governing law — survive termination.
10. Governing law
These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Georgia, United States, without regard to its conflict-of-laws rules. Subject to any mandatory consumer-protection rights you have where you live, you agree that the state and federal courts located in the State of Georgia will have exclusive jurisdiction over any dispute that is not otherwise resolved. Nothing here limits any rights you may have under Apple's terms as the App's distributor.
11. Changes to these terms
We may update these Terms as the Services evolve or as the law requires. When we do, we'll revise the “Last updated” date above. Material changes take effect when posted, and your continued use of the Services means you accept the updated Terms.
