Stepwyn Terms of Use
1. Acceptance
These Terms of Use ("Terms") are an agreement between you and Guy Greenberg, Founder & CEO, a sole proprietor in Israel trading as Stepwyn ("we", "us"), for the Stepwyn iPhone app (the "App").
When you first open the App, we ask you to agree to these Terms and to confirm that you have read our Privacy Policy by tapping "Agree and continue". You can read both at any time in the App under Settings > Legal. If you do not agree, do not use the App.
2. These Terms and Apple's standard EULA
These Terms add to Apple's standard Licensed Application End User License Agreement (the "Apple EULA"). Both apply. If they conflict, these Terms apply, except where the Apple EULA or Apple's rules require otherwise.
3. Eligibility and age
The App is not for children under 13, or under 16 in EU/EEA countries where that higher age applies. If you are under 18 (or the age of legal majority where you live), you may use the App only with the involvement and consent of a parent or legal guardian, who accepts these Terms for you.
4. License to use the App
We give you a personal, limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to install and use the App for your own non-commercial purposes on Apple devices that you own or control, as allowed by the Usage Rules in the Apple Media Services Terms and Conditions. This includes use through Family Sharing where it applies. All rights not expressly granted are reserved.
5. What the App does
- Stepwyn is a goal-oriented calendar. You choose goals and plan tasks and sessions to reach them.
- Your data is stored on your iPhone. There are no accounts and no server.
- Calendar sync is optional. Stepwyn only adds and updates your sessions in its own calendar and never reads your other events.
- The Assistant runs on your iPhone. It uses fixed rules, not AI services.
- Backups are plain files that you export yourself.
- The App is available in English, Arabic, Hebrew, German, Italian, Greek and Spanish. It follows your iPhone's language, with English as the fallback.
6. Price
The App is free. It has no purchases, subscriptions or ads. If we add paid features in the future, we will publish new Terms (a new version) and ask you to agree to them in the App before they apply to you.
Subscriptions: the App is currently free. If we offer paid features, we will update these Terms first and ask you to accept them.
7. Acceptable use
You agree not to:
- copy, modify, distribute, sell, rent, lease or sublicense the App, except as the law or these Terms allow;
- reverse engineer, decompile or disassemble the App, or try to extract its source code, except where the law does not allow this restriction;
- remove or change any proprietary notices, or use our names, logos or trademarks without permission;
- use the App to break any law, or to harm, harass or infringe the rights of others;
- get around any technical limit or security feature of the App or iOS.
8. Your content
You own everything you enter in the App, such as your goals, tasks, sessions and settings ("Your Content"). Your Content is stored only on your iPhone. We do not receive it, and you do not give us any license to it.
You are responsible for Your Content and for keeping your own backups, for example with the App's export feature. Exported backup files are plain, unencrypted files. Sessions you sync appear in a Stepwyn calendar in the Calendar app, which may sync them to your calendar accounts (such as iCloud). We hold no copy of Your Content, so we cannot restore it if it is lost or deleted.
9. Wellbeing disclaimer
Stepwyn is a motivational planning tool. It does not give medical, psychological, health, fitness, financial, legal or other professional advice, and it does not replace a qualified professional. Suggestions from the Assistant are created on your iPhone by fixed rules from what you enter. They are general prompts, not personal advice.
You choose your goals and plans and follow them at your own discretion. Talk to a qualified professional before starting any program that may affect your health, and get help immediately in an emergency. We do not promise any particular result. Reminders and calendar sessions may not appear (for example, if notifications or Calendar access are off), so do not rely on the App for anything time-critical or safety-critical.
10. Our intellectual property
The App, including its software, design, text, graphics and trademarks, belongs to us or our licensors and is protected by intellectual property laws. The App is licensed to you, not sold. If you send us feedback, we may use it freely and without any obligation to you.
11. Privacy
Your plans are stored on your iPhone. Stepwyn doesn't collect or upload them. They leave your phone only if you export a backup, add sessions to your calendar, or back up your iPhone. Please read our Privacy Policy.
12. Apple App Store terms
If you downloaded the App from Apple's App Store, the following also applies:
- Acknowledgement. These Terms are between you and us only, not with Apple Inc. ("Apple"). We, not Apple, are solely responsible for the App and its content. These Terms do not set usage rules that conflict with the Apple Media Services Terms and Conditions in effect on the date you accept them.
- Scope of license. Your license is a non-transferable license to use the App on Apple-branded products that you own or control, as allowed by the Usage Rules in the Apple Media Services Terms and Conditions, except that other accounts associated with you through Family Sharing or volume purchasing may also use it.
- Maintenance and support. We alone are responsible for any maintenance and support for the App, as stated in these Terms or required by law. Apple has no obligation to provide any maintenance or support for the App. Support: support@stepwyn.com.
- Warranty. We alone are responsible for any product warranties, express or implied by law, to the extent they are not effectively disclaimed. If the App does not conform to an applicable warranty, you may notify Apple, and Apple will refund the purchase price (if any) for the App to you. To the maximum extent allowed by law, Apple has no other warranty obligation for the App. Any other claims, losses, liabilities, damages, costs or expenses caused by a failure to conform to a warranty are our responsibility, to the extent not effectively disclaimed.
- Product claims. We, not Apple, are responsible for any claims by you or a third party about the App or your possession or use of it, including: (i) product liability claims; (ii) any claim that the App does not meet an applicable legal or regulatory requirement; and (iii) claims under consumer protection, privacy or similar laws. These Terms do not limit our liability to you beyond what applicable law allows.
- Intellectual property rights. If a third party claims that the App, or your possession and use of it, infringes their intellectual property rights, we, not Apple, are solely responsible for investigating, defending, settling and discharging that claim.
- Legal compliance. You confirm that (i) you are not located in a country that is subject to a U.S. Government embargo, or that the U.S. Government has designated as a "terrorist supporting" country; and (ii) you are not on any U.S. Government list of prohibited or restricted parties.
- Developer name and contact. Send questions, complaints or claims about the App to: Guy Greenberg (Stepwyn), Israel; support@stepwyn.com.
- Third-party terms. You must follow the terms of any third-party service you use with the App, such as your mobile data plan or your calendar, cloud or file-sharing service.
- Third-party beneficiary. Apple and Apple's subsidiaries are third-party beneficiaries of these Terms. When you accept these Terms, Apple has the right (and is treated as having accepted the right) to enforce them against you as a third-party beneficiary.
13. Disclaimers
To the maximum extent allowed by law, the App is provided "as is" and "as available", without warranties of any kind, express or implied. This includes warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, accuracy and non-infringement, and any warranty that the App will work without interruption or errors, or that data will not be lost. Some countries do not allow certain disclaimers, so some of this may not apply to you.
14. Limitation of liability
To the maximum extent allowed by law, we (and anyone acting for us) are not liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential or punitive damages, for any loss of profits, opportunities or goodwill, or for loss of data that you could have avoided by keeping a backup. Our total liability for all claims about the App is limited to the greater of (a) the amount you paid us for the App in the 12 months before the claim (if any) or (b) USD 50 (or the equivalent in New Israeli Shekels).
Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits liability that the law does not allow us to exclude or limit, such as liability for fraud, wilful misconduct, gross negligence, or death or personal injury. Nothing in these Terms affects your statutory rights as a consumer, including under the Israeli Consumer Protection Law, 5741-1981, and the consumer laws of your country of residence.
15. Termination
You may stop using the App at any time by deleting it. We may end your license if you seriously breach these Terms, and we may discontinue the App or any feature. If your license ends, you must stop using the App and delete it. Your data is stored only on your iPhone, so export it first if you want to keep it. Sections 8 to 10 and 12 to 19 continue to apply after termination.
16. Governing law and courts
These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Israel, without regard to its conflict-of-laws rules. Disputes may be brought before the competent court in Israel under the ordinary rules of jurisdiction, including the court for the area where you live if you live in Israel. If you are a consumer living outside Israel, this choice of law does not take away the protection of the mandatory laws of your country of residence, and you may also bring proceedings in the courts of your country of residence where those laws allow it.
17. Changes
We may update these Terms from time to time. Each version has a version number and an effective date. If we make a material change, such as to price, billing, your rights, our liability, or how we handle your data, we will show the updated Terms in the App and ask you to agree again before you continue to use it. Changes will not apply retroactively, and will not apply to a dispute that arose before the change. Minor edits that do not change the meaning, such as corrections or new translations, take effect when published. If you do not agree to updated Terms, stop using the App and delete it.
18. General
These Terms, the Apple EULA and the Privacy Policy are the entire agreement between you and us about the App. If any provision is found unenforceable, the rest remains in effect. If we do not enforce a provision, that is not a waiver. You may not transfer these Terms without our consent. We may transfer these Terms, and our role as controller under the Privacy Policy, to a company that Guy Greenberg forms or controls, or as part of a merger, acquisition or sale of Stepwyn, as long as your rights under these Terms are not reduced. We will tell you before such a transfer, in the App and, once it is live, on our website.
These Terms are written in English and are available in other languages. If a translation conflicts with the English version, the English version prevails, except where the consumer law of the country where you live gives you the right to rely on a version in your own language. If you live in Israel, the Hebrew and English versions are equally binding.
