You retain all rights to the content you save, create, or import into the App. We do not claim ownership of your content. Since all data is stored on your device and optionally synchronized to your personal cloud accounts, you are solely responsible for maintaining backups of your data.

Since all data is stored locally on your device and optionally synchronized to your personal cloud accounts, we are not responsible for any data loss resulting from device failure, accidental deletion, cloud service interruptions, or any other cause. You are solely responsible for maintaining adequate backups.
We reserve the right to modify these Terms at any time. Updated Terms will be posted on this page. Your continued use of the App after modifications constitutes acceptance of the revised Terms.
