Note Recall is a personal notetaking and reflection tool that enables users to create, store, review, organize, and analyze notes through features that may include artificial-intelligence-enabled chat, summaries, pattern identification, thematic analysis, and other insights (collectively, “Insights”). The App may be used for personal reflection, journaling, well-being tracking, professional development, planning, productivity, caregiving coordination, and similar purposes. You decide what information to enter into the App and whether, when, and how to use any Insights generated through it. We may add, modify, suspend, or discontinue any App feature or functionality at any time.
B.Updates.
We may provide updates, patches, bug fixes, enhancements, or new versions of the App. You acknowledge that failure to install available updates may affect App functionality, security, or compatibility.

You may access the App using an Apple ID or another authentication method that we make available. You are responsible for maintaining the security of your device, Apple ID, and for all activity occurring under your account.

Your license is also subject to Apple’s Licensed Application End User License Agreement (Standard EULA), available at https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula.
B.Ownership Reserved.
The App is licensed, not sold, to you. Note Recall and our licensors retain all right, title, and interest in and to the App, including all software, source code, object code, designs, text, graphics, interfaces, workflows, databases, content, trademarks, service marks, trade names, trade dress, and all intellectual property and proprietary rights therein, except for User Content.

You shall not, and shall not permit any other person to:
- copy, modify, adapt, translate, or create derivative works of the App, except to the extent expressly permitted by these Terms;
- reverse engineer, decompile, disassemble, or otherwise attempt to derive the source code, structure, sequence, organization, algorithms, or underlying ideas of the App, except to the limited extent such restriction is prohibited by applicable law;

IV.Fees and Subscriptions
A.Subscription.
The App is offered through an annual subscription. You purchase the App through the Apple App Store, and Apple processes all payments. Note Recall does not receive, handle, or store your payment card or other financial information. Your purchase is also subject to the Apple Media Services Terms and Conditions, available at https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/. Unless otherwise disclosed to you at the point of purchase, the current subscription price is $9.99 per year. The price and billing period are shown in the App and on the App Store before you purchase.
B.Automatic Renewal.
Your subscription begins when your purchase is confirmed by Apple. Subscriptions automatically renew for successive annual periods unless you cancel at least 24 hours before the end of the current term. You can manage or cancel your subscription at any time in your Apple ID account settings.
C.Canceling Subscriptions.
You may manage or cancel your subscription through your Apple ID account settings or through the subscription-management functionality made available by Apple. To avoid being charged for the next annual subscription period, you must cancel before the end of the current subscription period. Cancellation does not entitle you to a prorated refund for any unused portion of a subscription period. Deleting the App from your device does not cancel your subscription.
D.Price Changes.
We may change the price of the App or a subscription from time to time; any price change applies only to future purchases or renewals and, for subscriptions, will be disclosed to you before it takes effect. Where required, we will obtain your consent before charging you a changed price. If you do not agree to a price change, you may cancel your subscription before the next renewal date. Continued use of the App after a price change becomes effective constitutes acceptance to the extent permitted by applicable law and Apple’s applicable subscription process.
E.Taxes.
Fees are exclusive of taxes unless otherwise stated. You are responsible for all sales, use, value-added, excise, and similar taxes arising from your purchase or use of paid App features.
V.User Content and Feedback
A.User Content.

B.License to Note Recall.
You grant us a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free, fully paid, sublicensable, transferable license to process, display, and otherwise use your User Content solely to operate, provide, maintain, secure, and support the App and related services, and to comply with applicable law.
C.Storage of User Content.
Your User Content is stored locally on your device and/or in your personal third-party cloud storage account, such as iCloud, as applicable. We do not operate servers that store User Content and we do not have access to, or the ability to read, retrieve, recover, export, modify, or delete User Content on your behalf.
D.Backup.
You are solely responsible for maintaining current and complete backup copies of your User Content. Uninstalling the App, disabling or modifying synchronization with iCloud or another third-party cloud storage service, deleting or resetting your device, device loss, theft, damage, malfunction, replacement, or other device or storage failure may result in the permanent loss of User Content. You are responsible for maintaining any backups or copies of User Content that you wish to preserve. We will have no ability to recover lost User Content and will not be responsible for any loss of, damage to, or inability to access User Content resulting from those events.
E.Feedback.
If you provide suggestions, comments, ideas, recommendations, bug reports, or other feedback about the App (“Feedback”), you grant Note Recall a perpetual, irrevocable, worldwide, royalty-free, fully paid-up, transferable, sublicensable right to use, reproduce, modify, distribute, display, perform, commercialize, and otherwise exploit the Feedback for any purpose without compensation or attribution to you.
VI.Privacy and Permissions

The App may rely on or interoperate with open-source components or third-party platforms, products, devices, operating systems, networks, app stores, telecommunications providers, authentication providers, or other services, including Apple and the App Store (“Third-Party Services”).
B.No Control.
We do not control and are not responsible for Third-Party Services, including their content, availability, accuracy, security, performance, or practices. Your use of Third-Party Services is at your own risk and subject to the applicable third party’s terms. Your use of the App is also subject to Apple’s applicable Media Apps Terms and Conditions, App Store rules, and any other terms that Apple makes applicable to your use of the App Store, your Apple ID, in-app purchases, and subscriptions. These Terms do not provide for usage rules for the App that conflict with the Apple Media Apps Terms and Conditions.

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, THE APP, INSIGHTS, DEMO MODE, TRUSTED CONTACT-NOTE FEATURE, CONTENT, AND ALL RELATED MATERIALS ARE PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE.” NOTE RECALL DISCLAIMS ALL WARRANTIES, WHETHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED, STATUTORY, OR OTHERWISE, INCLUDING ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, ACCURACY, QUIET ENJOYMENT, AND NON-INTERFERENCE.
B.No Medical or Professional Device.
You acknowledge and agree that the App is a productivity tool designed solely for notetaking, data organization, and personal use. The App does not provide medical advice, professional diagnoses, opinions, treatments, or services. The Insights generated by the App are not a substitute for professional expertise, judgment, diagnosis, or treatment. Your use of the App, including the input of health-related information or symptoms, does not create a doctor-patient relationship, therapist-patient relationship, or any other professional healthcare relationship between you and Note Recall. You should never disregard professional medical advice, change a treatment plan, or delay seeking medical care because of something you have recorded or analyzed within the App. If you think you may have a medical emergency, call 911 or your local emergency number immediately. If you are in the United States and are experiencing suicidal thoughts, emotional distress, or a mental-health crisis, call or text 988 to reach the Suicide & Crisis Lifeline. If you are outside the United States, contact your local emergency services or crisis-support provider.
C.No Reliance on AI-Generated Outputs.
The App uses artificial intelligence or machine-learning systems to answer chat questions about your notes, tag notes, extract facts, and generate Insights (“AI Outputs”). AI Outputs may be inaccurate, incomplete, misleading, outdated, offensive, or otherwise unsuitable for a particular purpose.
D.User Responsibility.
You are solely responsible for reviewing, evaluating, and independently verifying all AI Outputs before using, sharing, publishing, implementing, or relying on them. AI Outputs are provided for general informational and assistive purposes only and do not constitute professional advice, including legal, medical, financial, tax, investment, engineering, or other regulated or professional advice. Your use of, reliance on, or actions taken based on AI Outputs are at your own risk.
E.No Monitoring.
The App does not monitor your notes, trusted contact-submitted notes, questions, Insights, or other content for emergencies. We do not undertake any duty to identify, intervene in, report, or respond to a potential emergency, safety concern, or crisis.
X.Trusted Contact Notes
A.Inviting Trusted Contacts.
The App may allow you to invite a family member, friend, support person, or other individual (each, a “Trusted Contact”) to submit notes to you through a trusted contact-note feature. A Trusted Contact may receive an invitation by text message made available by the App. A Trusted Contact may accept or decline an invitation. A Trusted Contact is not required to create a Note Recall account or purchase a subscription to submit notes through an accepted invitation.
B.Trusted Contact Access.
Trusted Contacts may be permitted to submit notes to you, but they do not receive access to your account, your personal notes, your Insights, your chat history, or other User Content unless the App expressly indicates otherwise.
C.Authority to Contact.
By inviting a Trusted Contact, you represent and warrant that you have the authority to provide the Trusted Contact’s contact information and to send the invitation. You are responsible for your relationship with each Trusted Contact and for deciding whether the Trusted Contact is appropriate to participate.
XI.Demo Mode
A.Demo Mode.
The App offers a demonstration mode (“Demo Mode”) that contains sample notes, fictional or randomly generated content, and pre-generated or simulated Insights. Content displayed in Demo Mode:
- Is for illustrative and demonstration purposes only;
- May be fictional, randomized, generated, or otherwise not associated with an actual person;
- Must not be treated as medical, mental-health, legal, financial, professional, or other advice;
- Does not establish the accuracy, performance, suitability, or expected results of the App; and
- May change or be removed at any time.
XII.Limitation of Liability
A.Waiver of Consequential Damages.
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, NOTE RECALL AND ITS AFFILIATES, LICENSORS, SERVICE PROVIDERS, OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES, AGENTS, AND REPRESENTATIVES WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR FOR ANY LOSS OF PROFITS, REVENUE, BUSINESS, GOODWILL, USE, DATA, CONTENT, OR OTHER INTANGIBLE LOSSES, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THE APP OR THESE TERMS.
B.Liability Cap.
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, THE TOTAL AGGREGATE LIABILITY OF NOTE RECALL AND ITS AFFILIATES, LICENSORS, SERVICE PROVIDERS, OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES, AGENTS, AND REPRESENTATIVES ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THE APP OR THESE TERMS WILL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF: THE AMOUNT PAID TO NOTE RECALL FOR THE APP DURING THE 12 MONTHS BEFORE THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO LIABILITY; OR $50.00.
The exclusions and limitations in this Article XII apply regardless of the form of action, whether in contract, tort, strict liability, negligence, statute, or otherwise, and even if Note Recall has been advised of the possibility of the damages.

XIV.Suspension and Termination
A.Termination by You.
You may stop using the App at any time. Deleting the App from your device does not cancel an active subscription; you must cancel through Apple’s applicable subscription-management process.
B.Termination or Suspension by Us.
We may suspend or terminate your access to all or part of the App, with or without notice, if we reasonably believe that:
- You have violated these Terms;

XV.Dispute Resolution
A.Governing Law.
These Terms and any dispute, claim, or controversy arising out of or relating to the App or these Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Georgia, without giving effect to any conflict-of-laws rule that would require application of the laws of another jurisdiction.
