HIDDEN — TERMS OF SERVICE

1. ACCEPTANCE OF TERMS

These Terms are an agreement between you and Dimitrios Daskaleas, trading as fineapps, Kallikratida 53, Piraeus 18544, Greece ("we", "us"), for your use of the Hidden app ("the App"). By installing or using the App you accept these Terms. If you do not accept them, do not use the App.

2. WHAT THE APP DOES

Hidden encrypts photos, videos and notes on your device and stores the encrypted vault in your own iCloud, your own Google Drive, or only on your device, as you choose. A web version runs the same app in a browser. It can move items out of your phone's gallery into the vault and can disguise itself as a calculator. We operate no server that holds your content.

3. YOUR PASSPHRASE AND RECOVERY PHRASE

Your vault can be opened only with your passphrase or your 24-word recovery phrase. We never receive either and cannot reset them. If you lose both, your vault cannot be recovered by anyone, including us. You are responsible for keeping them safe and private.

4. YOUR CONTENT

Your content stays yours; we claim no rights to it and cannot see it. You are solely responsible for what you store, and you agree to store only content you have the right to keep and that is lawful where you live. You must not use the App to store or conceal material that exploits or endangers children, or any other unlawful material.

5. STORAGE PROVIDERS

iCloud and Google Drive are provided by Apple and Google under their own terms, privacy policies and storage limits, which apply to your use of them. If your storage is full or unavailable, the App cannot finish saving new items until space is available. When you choose "this phone only", losing or resetting the device loses the vault unless you have exported an encrypted backup file.

6. GALLERY REMOVAL

When you ask the App to move items, it requests removal of the originals from your gallery only after their encrypted copies have been stored and checked, and your phone asks you to confirm. On most phones removed items stay in the gallery's "Recently Deleted" album for a period set by your phone's maker.

7. CALCULATOR DISGUISE

The disguise changes how the App looks on your phone. It is a privacy convenience, not a security guarantee: it does not hide the App from someone who examines your phone's settings, app list or storage. Your vault remains protected by its encryption either way.

8. PURCHASES

The App is free to use, encrypted, for up to 20 items. A one-time in-app purchase unlocks unlimited items, the calculator disguises and automatic moving from your gallery. Purchases are processed by Apple or Google under their terms; refunds follow their refund policies. You can restore your purchase on a new device signed in to the same store account from the App's settings.

Web preview. In the web version (hidden.fineapps.gr) and in test builds, the unlock is free and takes effect when you tap it; no payment is taken. An unlock obtained this way stays on that device. The App Store and Google Play versions will sell the unlock as described above.

9. LICENCE AND INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY

We grant you a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable licence to use the App on devices you own or control. The App, its design, icons and name are ours. You may not copy, modify, reverse-engineer or redistribute the App except where the law allows it.

10. PRIVACY

How the App handles data is described in the Privacy Policy.

11. AVAILABILITY AND CHANGES

We may update the App, change features, or stop offering it. Because your vault lives in your own storage and your exported backup files, it stays yours to keep whatever happens to the App.

12. DISCLAIMERS

The App is provided "as is" and "as available", without warranties of any kind, express or implied, including merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose and non-infringement. We do not warrant that the App will be uninterrupted or error-free. Nothing in these Terms limits rights you have as a consumer that cannot be limited by law.

13. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY

To the maximum extent permitted by law, we shall not be liable for:

• Indirect, incidental, special, consequential or punitive damages
• Loss of content caused by a lost passphrase and recovery phrase, a lost device, or your storage provider
• Any amount exceeding what you paid us for the App in the 12 months before the claim

14. TERMINATION

You may stop using the App and delete it at any time. Sections that by their nature should survive (content, intellectual property, disclaimers, limitation of liability, governing law) continue to apply.

15. GOVERNING LAW

These Terms are governed by the laws of Greece, without regard to conflict-of-law principles.

16. ADDITIONAL TERMS FOR APPLE APP STORE DOWNLOADS

The following applies only if you obtained the App from the Apple App Store, and prevails over anything inconsistent elsewhere in these Terms for those downloads. In this section, "Apple" means Apple Inc. and its subsidiaries.

• This agreement is with us, not Apple. These Terms are concluded between you and Dimitrios Daskaleas, trading as fineapps, only — not with Apple. We, not Apple, are solely responsible for the App and its content.
• Scope of licence. Your licence to use the App is a non-transferable licence to use it on any Apple-branded device that you own or control, as permitted by the Usage Rules in the Apple Media Services Terms and Conditions.
• Maintenance and support. We are solely responsible for providing any maintenance and support for the App. Apple has no obligation whatsoever to furnish any maintenance or support services.
• Warranty. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, Apple has no warranty obligation with respect to the App. If the App fails to conform to any applicable warranty, you may notify Apple, and Apple will refund the purchase price (if any) for the App to you. Apple has no other warranty obligation whatsoever with respect to the App; any other claims, losses, liabilities, damages, costs or expenses attributable to a failure to conform to a warranty are our sole responsibility.
• Product claims. We, not Apple, are responsible for addressing any claims relating to the App or your possession and use of it, including product-liability claims, any claim that the App fails to conform to a legal or regulatory requirement, and claims arising under consumer-protection, privacy or similar legislation.
• Intellectual-property claims. If a third party claims that the App or your possession and use of it infringes that third party's intellectual-property rights, we, not Apple, are solely responsible for the investigation, defence, settlement and discharge of that claim.
• Legal compliance. You represent and warrant that you are not located in a country subject to a U.S. Government embargo or designated as a "terrorist supporting" country, and that you are not listed on any U.S. Government list of prohibited or restricted parties.
• Third-party terms. You must comply with any applicable third-party terms of agreement when using the App.
• Apple as third-party beneficiary. Apple and its subsidiaries are third-party beneficiaries of these Terms, and upon your acceptance of these Terms Apple has the right (and is deemed to have accepted the right) to enforce these Terms against you as a third-party beneficiary.
• Contact. Questions, complaints or claims about the App should be directed to hidden@fineapps.gr.

17. CHANGES TO THESE TERMS

We may change these Terms as the App evolves. Material changes will be announced in the App or on this page with an updated date. Continued use after changes take effect means you accept them.
