Terms of Use.

Acceptance of Terms

These Terms of Use ("Terms") constitute a binding agreement between you ("you" or "your") and Case Ledger ("we," "us," or "our"). By downloading, installing, accessing, or using the Case Ledger application (the "App"), you agree to be bound by these Terms.

If you do not agree to these Terms, do not install or use the App. If you have already installed it, uninstall it and request a refund per the refund policy below.

License Grant

Subject to your compliance with these Terms and your payment of the applicable fee, we grant you a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to use the App on Apple Silicon Macs that you own or control, subject to the activation limits associated with your license key.

This is a license, not a sale. We retain all right, title, and interest in and to the App, including all intellectual property rights.

Permitted Use

You may use the App to record screen content for any lawful purpose, including but not limited to evidence preservation, internal investigations, compliance review, technical documentation, and education.

You are responsible for ensuring that your use of the App, including any recordings you make, complies with all applicable laws and any contractual or ethical obligations you have. This includes recording consent laws, wiretap statutes, professional conduct rules, confidentiality obligations, and intellectual property rights.

Restrictions

You may not:

• Copy, modify, reverse-engineer, decompile, disassemble, or create derivative works of the App, except to the extent that applicable law expressly permits such activity notwithstanding this restriction.
• Rent, lease, lend, sell, redistribute, sublicense, or otherwise transfer the App or your license key.
• Use the App to violate any law, infringe any third party's rights, or in any manner that could disable, overburden, damage, or impair the App.
• Remove or alter any proprietary notices, labels, or marks on the App.
• Circumvent, disable, or interfere with security-related features of the App, including the cryptographic signing, audit logging, or read-only locking mechanisms.
• Use the App to record any person, system, or location where doing so would violate applicable law or any consent obligation you have.

Evidence and Admissibility

Case Ledger does not guarantee the admissibility of any recording in any proceeding, the legal sufficiency of any recording or evidence bundle, or compliance with any specific regulatory framework.

The App produces tamper-evident artifacts (signed manifests, append-only audit logs, read-only files, and verifiable bundles) intended to support evidence preservation workflows. Whether any of those artifacts is admitted, accepted, or relied upon in any legal, regulatory, or business context depends on factors outside our control, including the rules of the jurisdiction, the discretion of the relevant tribunal or authority, the specifics of the matter, and the conduct of the parties.

You are solely responsible for determining whether the App is appropriate for your particular use, and for satisfying any procedural, evidentiary, or compliance requirements that apply to you. We are not your lawyer. Nothing in the App or on our website constitutes legal advice.

Payment and Refunds

The App is sold as a one-time purchase through the Apple App Store. Apple acts as the merchant of record and handles payment processing, tax collection, and refund requests per Apple's standard policies.

We offer a satisfaction guarantee: if you are unsatisfied with the App within fourteen (14) days of purchase, email support@caseledger.app and we will assist with a refund through Apple. Apple has final authority over App Store refund processing.

Updates and Support

We may release updates to the App from time to time. Apple's App Store mechanisms govern how updates are delivered. We provide free updates within the major version you purchased (e.g., updates within v1.x are free if you purchased v1.0). New major versions may be offered at a separate price.

We provide best-effort email support at support@caseledger.app. See our Support page for response time expectations. We make no guarantees about response times, the resolution of any particular issue, or continued availability of support for older versions.

Disclaimer of Warranties

THE APP IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND.

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, we disclaim all warranties, express or implied, including without limitation warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement, and any warranties arising out of course of dealing or usage of trade.

We do not warrant that the App will be uninterrupted, error-free, secure, free of viruses or other harmful components, or that any defect will be corrected. We do not warrant the accuracy, reliability, completeness, currency, or timeliness of any recording, manifest, audit log, signature, or bundle produced by the App.

Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion of certain warranties. The above exclusion may not apply to you in full.

Limitation of Liability

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, IN NO EVENT WILL WE BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR ANY LOSS OF PROFITS OR REVENUES, WHETHER INCURRED DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY, OR ANY LOSS OF DATA, USE, GOODWILL, OR OTHER INTANGIBLE LOSSES, RESULTING FROM:

• Your use of or inability to use the App;
• Any recording, manifest, audit log, signature, or evidence bundle produced by the App being deemed insufficient, inadmissible, or non-compliant in any proceeding or for any purpose;
• Any unauthorized access to or alteration of your recordings;
• Loss or corruption of recordings, evidence bundles, or signing keys;
• Any other matter relating to the App.

IN NO EVENT WILL OUR AGGREGATE LIABILITY FOR ALL CLAIMS RELATING TO THE APP EXCEED THE AMOUNT YOU PAID TO ACQUIRE THE APP.

Some jurisdictions do not allow the limitation or exclusion of liability for incidental or consequential damages. The above limitation may not apply to you in full.

Indemnification

You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold us harmless from and against any claims, liabilities, damages, losses, and expenses, including reasonable attorneys' fees, arising out of or in any way connected with: (a) your use of the App; (b) any recording you make using the App; (c) your violation of these Terms; or (d) your violation of any rights of another party or any law.

Termination

We may terminate or suspend your license, with or without notice, if you breach these Terms. Upon termination, your right to use the App ceases immediately, and you must delete all copies of the App from your devices.

Provisions of these Terms that by their nature should survive termination will survive, including ownership provisions, warranty disclaimers, indemnification, and limitations of liability.

Governing Law and Disputes

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Colorado, United States, without regard to its conflict of laws principles. Any dispute arising out of or relating to these Terms or the App that is not subject to arbitration will be resolved exclusively in the state or federal courts located in Douglas County, Colorado, and you consent to personal jurisdiction in those courts.

The United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods does not apply to these Terms.

Apple App Store Terms

The following applies if you obtain the App from the Apple App Store. You acknowledge that these Terms are between you and us only, not with Apple, and that Apple is not responsible for the App or its content. Your use of the App must comply with the App Store Terms of Service. We, not Apple, are solely responsible for the App and its content.

You acknowledge that Apple has no obligation to furnish any maintenance and support services with respect to the App. In the event of any failure of the App to conform to any applicable warranty, you may notify Apple, and Apple will refund the App's purchase price to you; to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, Apple will have no other warranty obligation whatsoever with respect to the App.

You acknowledge that we, not Apple, are responsible for addressing any claims by you or any third party relating to the App or your possession or use of the App. You acknowledge that, in the event of any third-party claim that the App or your possession and use of that App infringes that third party's intellectual property rights, we, not Apple, will be solely responsible for the investigation, defense, settlement, and discharge of any such intellectual property infringement claim.

You represent and warrant that (i) you are not located in a country that is subject to a U.S. Government embargo, or that has been designated by the U.S. Government as a "terrorist supporting" country; and (ii) you are not listed on any U.S. Government list of prohibited or restricted parties.

You acknowledge and agree that Apple, and Apple's subsidiaries, are third party beneficiaries of these Terms, and that, upon your acceptance of these Terms, Apple will have the right (and will be deemed to have accepted the right) to enforce these Terms against you as a third party beneficiary.

Changes to These Terms

We may modify these Terms from time to time. When we do, we will update the "Last updated" date at the top of this page and post the revised Terms here. For material changes, we will provide notice on the homepage of caseledger.app at least thirty days before the changes take effect.

Your continued use of the App after changes to the Terms take effect constitutes your acceptance of the revised Terms.

Miscellaneous

These Terms, together with our Privacy Policy and Legal Disclaimer, constitute the entire agreement between you and us regarding the App and supersede all prior agreements.

If any provision of these Terms is held to be invalid or unenforceable, the remaining provisions will remain in full force and effect. Our failure to enforce any right or provision of these Terms will not be considered a waiver of those rights.

You may not assign or transfer these Terms, by operation of law or otherwise, without our prior written consent. We may assign these Terms without restriction.
