The App is provided "as is" and we reserve the right to modify, suspend, or discontinue any feature at any time.

3.2 Calendar Permissions

By connecting your calendar, you grant BreakMode permission to:

6. Calendar Integration

6.1 Third-Party Services

BreakMode integrates with Google Calendar and iOS Calendar, which are third-party services. Your use of these services is subject to their respective terms:

  • All payments will be processed through the Apple App Store
  • Refunds will follow Apple's refund policy

8. Disclaimers and Limitations of Liability

8.1 No Medical Advice

BreakMode is a wellness tool, not a medical device. The App does not provide medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment. Consult a healthcare professional for medical concerns.

8.2 "As Is" Service

The App is provided "AS IS" and "AS AVAILABLE" without warranties of any kind, either express or implied, including but not limited to:

  • Fitness for a particular purpose

  • Damages resulting from calendar errors or sync issues
  • Third-party calendar provider failures

Our total liability shall not exceed $50 USD or the amount you paid us (if any) in the last 12 months.

You may stop using the App at any time by disconnecting your calendar in Settings and deleting the App from your device.

10.2 Our Right to Terminate

We may suspend or terminate your access if you violate these Terms, engage in fraudulent or illegal activity, or abuse or misuse the App.

10.3 Effect of Termination

Upon termination, your right to use the App immediately ceases. Break events in your calendar will remain (you can delete them manually). Local preferences data will be deleted when you uninstall the App.

11. Changes to Terms

We reserve the right to modify these Terms at any time. If we make material changes, we will notify you via in-app notification and an updated "Last Modified" date at the top of this page. Your continued use of the App after changes constitutes acceptance of the modified Terms.

12. Governing Law and Dispute Resolution

12.1 Governing Law

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of New York, United States, without regard to conflict of law principles.

12.2 Dispute Resolution

Any disputes arising from these Terms or the App shall be resolved through good-faith negotiation first (contact us at [email protected]), then binding arbitration if negotiation fails. You agree to waive your right to a jury trial or class action lawsuit.

13. Miscellaneous

These Terms, along with our Privacy Policy, constitute the entire agreement. If any provision is found unenforceable, the remaining provisions remain in effect. Our failure to enforce any provision does not constitute a waiver.
