Terms of Service
1. Scope and provider
These terms govern your use of the Resift app for iOS and Android (the "App") and the websites tryresift.com and resift.app. They are provided by:
[FULL LEGAL NAME]
[STREET AND NUMBER],
[POSTAL CODE AND CITY], Switzerland
Email: hello@tryresift.com
By downloading or using Resift, you agree to these terms. If you obtained Resift through Apple's App Store, Apple's standard Licensed Application End User License Agreement also applies, and Apple is a third-party beneficiary of these terms with the right to enforce them. If you obtained Resift through Google Play, the Google Play Terms of Service also apply. In case of conflict between these terms and mandatory store terms, the store terms prevail to the extent of the conflict.
2. The service: what Resift is (and is not)
Resift is a personal capture-and-decide tool: you save short notes and ideas, and the App resurfaces them for a swipe decision. Resift is local-first: your content is stored only on your device, and we operate no server, no accounts, and no sync (see the privacy policy, sections 2–3). Because there is no server component, your use of the App does not depend on any online service of ours.
Resift is an organisational and productivity tool only — it does not provide medical, legal, financial, or other professional advice. Its suggestions (such as when to resurface an item, how a capture is auto-sorted into a deck, or what a shopping "staple" is) are on-device heuristics, not guarantees, and may be wrong. Check anything that matters against an authoritative source before acting on it.
3. Licence
We grant you a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable licence to use Resift on devices that you own or control, in accordance with the applicable store terms (Apple App Store or Google Play). You may not copy, modify, distribute, sell, rent, reverse-engineer, or attempt to extract the source code of the App, except to the extent mandatory law permits it.
4. One-time unlock ("lifetime" licence)
Resift may offer a one-time purchase that unlocks additional features permanently ("lifetime unlock"). There is no subscription, and we will not convert the unlock into one. To be fair and precise about what "lifetime" means:
- It refers to the lifetime of the App as a product, not your lifetime or an unlimited period.
- It covers the App as it exists at the time of purchase, on platforms and OS versions the App then supports. We intend to keep improving Resift, but the unlock does not create an obligation to deliver specific future features or perpetual updates.
- We do not guarantee that the App will remain available forever. If we discontinue the App, purchases remain governed by the refund policies of the store you bought through (section 5).
5. Billing, taxes, refunds — Apple and Google
All purchases are made through the store you obtained Resift from, using the platform's native billing system (StoreKit 2 / Play Billing) — we use no purchase middleware and never see your payment details.
- Apple App Store: Apple is the merchant of record and handles payment processing, VAT/sales taxes, and refunds under its own terms. Refund requests go through Apple (reportaproblem.apple.com).
- Google Play (when Resift is offered there): billing and refunds are handled through Google Play under the Google Play Terms of Service and its refund policy.
We cannot issue refunds directly for store purchases. How purchases look from a data-protection angle is described in section 6 of the privacy policy.
6. Your content, your device, your backups
Everything you save in Resift stays on your device (privacy policy, section 3). You retain all rights to your content; these terms grant us no licence to it — we could not use it even if we wanted to, because we never receive it.
The flip side of local-first: you are responsible for backups. Use your device's backup mechanisms (privacy policy, section 7). If your device is lost, damaged, or wiped and you have no backup, we cannot recover data stored only on hardware we never had access to.
7. Acceptable use
You agree not to:
- use the App in violation of applicable law,
- attempt to interfere with, disrupt, or circumvent the App's operation or its licensing/unlock mechanism,
- misrepresent your relationship with us, or
- redistribute the App or offer it for download outside the official stores.
8. Intellectual property
The App, its design, name, logo, and this website are our intellectual property or used under licence. These terms grant you no rights in them other than the licence in section 3. Your content remains yours (section 6).
9. Availability and changes to the App
The App is provided "as available." We may update, change, or discontinue features at any time; material changes are noted in the changelog. Because the App runs entirely on your device, an installed version keeps working as installed — there is no server we could switch off underneath it. Where a change would materially affect data handling, we will update the privacy policy first (see its section 12).
10. Warranty and liability
To the extent permitted by law, the App is provided without warranty of merchantability or fitness for a particular purpose. Our liability is excluded to the extent permissible under Swiss law; liability for unlawful intent or gross negligence (Art. 100 para. 1 of the Swiss Code of Obligations), and any liability that cannot be excluded by law (including for personal injury), remains unaffected.
Consumer rights: if you are a consumer, nothing in these terms limits mandatory rights you have under the law of your country of residence, including mandatory warranty rights for digital products.
11. Termination
You can stop using Resift at any time by deleting the App — deleting it also deletes your local data (privacy policy, section 3). We may terminate the licence if you materially breach these terms. Sections that by their nature should survive (6, 8, 10, 12) survive termination.
12. Governing law and jurisdiction
These terms are governed by Swiss law, excluding its conflict-of-law rules and the UN Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods. Place of jurisdiction is [CITY OF DOMICILE], Switzerland — subject to any mandatory consumer forum in your country of residence.
13. Changes to these terms
We may update these terms; the current version is always published here with its "last updated" date. Material changes will be noted in the changelog. The German version (AGB) is kept identical in substance; if the two ever diverge, the version in your language of use applies to you.
