Terms of Service

Terms of Service

Effective date: 4 September 2026
Last updated: 4 September 2026
Version: 1.0

PLEASE READ THESE TERMS CAREFULLY. THEY CONTAIN A BINDING ARBITRATION AGREEMENT AND A CLASS ACTION WAIVER IN SECTION 22, WHICH AFFECT HOW DISPUTES ARE RESOLVED. THEY ALSO CONTAIN DISCLAIMERS OF WARRANTY (SECTION 18) AND LIMITATIONS OF LIABILITY (SECTION 19).

1. Who these terms are between

These Terms of Service ("Terms") are a binding legal agreement between you ("you", "your") and Estudylog Inc., a corporation incorporated federally under the Canada Business Corporations Act and based in Toronto, Ontario, Canada ("Estudylog", "we", "us", "our").

They govern your access to and use of:

  • the Estudylog application for iPhone and iPad (iOS / iPadOS), including its widgets, Live Activities, Siri shortcuts and Spotlight entries;
  • the Estudylog application for macOS;
  • the Estudylog application for Android;
  • the Estudylog companion application for Apple Watch;
  • the website at https://estudylog.com;
  • our backend services, APIs and Cloud Functions;
  • any content, features and functionality we make available through them

(together, the "Service").

By downloading, installing, accessing or using the Service, you agree to these Terms and to the Privacy Policy, which is incorporated by reference. If you do not agree, do not use the Service.

2. Eligibility

Estudylog is a general-audience study tool. We do not restrict it to any particular kind of student, school, subject or level, and there is no upper age limit or enrolment requirement of any kind.

There is, however, a legal minimum, because using the Service means creating an account and having personal data processed. You may use the Service only if:

  • you are at least 13 years old — and at least 16 years old if you are in a country where 16 is the age of digital consent — unless a parent or legal guardian has consented to your use and to these Terms on your behalf. This floor exists because privacy laws including the US Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA), the GDPR and Canadian privacy law regulate the collection of children's personal data; it is not a judgement about who benefits from a study app.
  • you have the legal capacity to enter into a binding contract, or a parent or guardian who does has agreed to these Terms for you;
  • you are not barred from using the Service under the laws of your country of residence or of the country from which you access it;
  • you are not located in, ordinarily resident in, or organised under the laws of a country subject to a comprehensive Canadian or United States embargo, and you are not on any restricted-party or sanctions list (see §26);
  • you are located in a country or territory in which we make the Service available.

Where Estudylog is available. We offer the Service only in the countries and territories listed at https://estudylog.com/availability/, which forms part of these Terms and may be updated from time to time. If your country is not on that list, you are not permitted to use the Service and you should not create an account, download the App, or purchase a subscription.

We may enforce this by geographic restrictions in the app stores, by refusing or closing accounts, and by blocking access. We make no representation that the Service, its content, or any feature is appropriate, lawful, or available for use outside the listed territories. If you access the Service from elsewhere, you do so on your own initiative and at your own risk, and you are solely responsible for compliance with local law, including any local data protection, consumer, import, encryption or content law. Nothing in these Terms is an offer to provide the Service where doing so would be unlawful or would subject us to registration, licensing or regulatory obligations in a jurisdiction where we are not established.

Availability may change. A country may be added or removed at any time. If we withdraw the Service from your country, we will use commercially reasonable efforts to give notice and, where practicable, a means to export your data, and any subscription will continue until the end of its paid period unless cancelled or refunded by the store.

Purchases. A paid subscription is a contract. To buy one you must have the legal capacity to enter into it in your jurisdiction — generally the age of majority (18 or 19 in most Canadian provinces, and commonly 18 elsewhere) — or a parent or guardian must make the purchase for you. Separately, the app stores impose their own age requirements on holding a store account and on using a payment method: Apple requires an Apple Account holder to meet a minimum age that varies by country (13 in Canada and the United States, higher in some countries), and Google applies equivalent rules to Google Play accounts. Purchases made by a minor on a parent's or guardian's store account are that account holder's responsibility, and refund requests for them go to Apple or Google, not to us.

If you are using the Service on behalf of an institution or organisation, you represent that you are authorised to bind it, and "you" includes that organisation.

We may refuse service, close accounts, or restrict access at our discretion where these eligibility requirements are not met.

3. Your account

Creating one. You can use Estudylog as a guest (an anonymous account created automatically so your data can be stored and synced) or you can register with an email address and a password. Registering lets you sign in on other devices and recover your data.

Accuracy. You agree to provide accurate information and to keep it up to date.

Security. You are responsible for keeping your password confidential and for everything that happens under your account, whether or not you authorised it. Tell us immediately at support@estudylog.com if you suspect unauthorised access. We are not liable for loss arising from your failure to keep your credentials secure.

One person per account. Accounts are personal. Do not share your account, sell it, transfer it, or let anyone else use it. Do not create an account using someone else's identity or email address.

Guest accounts are fragile by nature. A guest account exists on one device and is not recoverable if you delete the App, reset the device, or sign out without first upgrading it to a registered account. We cannot recover a lost guest account, and we are not responsible for data lost that way. If your study history matters to you, register an account.

Multiple devices. You may use the Service on the Apple devices you own or control. Your active session syncs across them.

4. Licence to use the App

Subject to your compliance with these Terms, we grant you a limited, personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable, revocable licence to download and use the Estudylog application on devices that you own or control, and to access the Service, for your own personal, non-commercial study purposes.

Where you obtained the App from the Apple App Store, this licence is limited to Apple-branded devices that you own or control, as required by Apple's Usage Rules. Where you obtained it from Google Play, it is limited to Android devices that you own or control.

This is a licence, not a sale. We and our licensors retain all right, title and interest in and to the Service.

App store licences also apply. Because the App is distributed through app stores, your licence is additionally subject to the terms of the store you obtained it from:

Where these Terms conflict with a store's terms, these Terms govern to the extent permitted, except that nothing here reduces the rights those store terms grant Apple or Google.

5. Things you must not do

You agree not to, and not to help or permit anyone else to:

Against the software and the Service

  1. copy, modify, translate, adapt or create derivative works of the App or the Service, except as expressly permitted by law that cannot be contractually excluded;
  2. reverse engineer, decompile or disassemble the App, or attempt to derive its source code, algorithms, or the structure of our backend, except to the limited extent applicable law expressly permits notwithstanding this restriction;
  3. remove, obscure or alter any copyright, trademark or other proprietary notice;
  4. rent, lease, lend, sell, sublicense, distribute, host as a service, or otherwise commercially exploit the App or the Service;
  5. use the Service to build, train, benchmark or improve a competing product or a machine-learning model;
  6. access the Service by any automated means — bots, scripts, scrapers, crawlers, headless clients or unofficial API clients — or interfere with, disable, or circumvent Firebase App Check, App Attest, DeviceCheck, our security rules, rate limits, quotas, or any other technical protection measure;
  7. run the App on a jailbroken, rooted, emulated or otherwise modified device in a way that defeats its security controls;
  8. attempt to gain unauthorised access to any account, device, system, or data that is not yours, or probe, scan or test the vulnerability of the Service without our prior written permission;
  9. impose an unreasonable or disproportionately large load on the Service, or interfere with its proper working — including through denial-of-service attacks, flooding, or excessive automated writes;
  10. circumvent, or attempt to circumvent, any usage limit, course quota, free-tier restriction, AI import quota, or paywall;
  11. falsify, spoof, replay or tamper with StoreKit transactions, receipts, entitlement claims, or authentication tokens.

Against other people and the law

  1. upload, post, transmit or store anything unlawful, infringing, defamatory, obscene, harassing, hateful, threatening, sexually explicit, or that depicts or exploits minors;
  2. upload material that contains another person's personal data or confidential information without a lawful basis to do so — this specifically includes uploading images or documents to the AI import feature that contain other students', staff members' or third parties' personal information;
  3. upload viruses, malware, or any code designed to disrupt, damage, or gain unauthorised access to any system;
  4. impersonate any person or entity, or misrepresent your affiliation with a person, institution or entity;
  5. use the Service to violate any applicable law, regulation, academic integrity policy, or third-party right;
  6. use the Service for any purpose that is illegal in your jurisdiction, or in furtherance of academic misconduct.

We may investigate suspected violations and take any action we consider appropriate, including removing content, suspending or terminating your account, and reporting to law enforcement.

6. Your content

You own it. You retain all ownership of the content you create in the Service: your courses, course outlines, topics, key dates, study session notes, ratings, themes, wallpapers, timetables, uploaded images, feedback and bug reports ("Your Content").

The licence you give us. To operate the Service we need permission to handle Your Content. You grant us a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free licence to host, store, reproduce, transmit, adapt (for technical formatting and rendering), and display Your Content solely for the purpose of providing, securing, supporting and improving the Service for you, and to make backups. This licence lasts as long as we hold Your Content and ends when it is deleted, save for backup copies which roll off as described in the Privacy Policy.

Community themes. If — and only if — you deliberately post a theme to the in-app community feed, you additionally grant us and other users a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free, sublicensable licence to display, distribute and reproduce that theme within the Service, and to let other users apply it to their own copy of the App. This is an inherent consequence of publishing it. You can take your post down at any time, which will stop new distribution, but copies already applied by other users may persist.

Feedback. If you send us ideas, suggestions, feature requests, bug reports or other feedback, you grant us a perpetual, irrevocable, worldwide, royalty-free, fully paid, sublicensable licence to use it for any purpose without obligation, attribution or compensation to you. We may already be working on the same idea; nothing here creates any obligation of confidentiality or any partnership.

Aggregated and de-identified data — machine learning, research and product development. You agree that we may create aggregated, anonymised and de-identified data from Your Content, from your use of the Service, and from the metrics derived from them, and that we may use that data for any lawful business purpose, including to:

  • develop, train, fine-tune, evaluate, test and improve machine learning and statistical models, including models that power current and future Estudylog features such as study insights, predictions, recommendations, scheduling, topic extraction and timetable understanding;
  • build, improve and secure the Service and develop new products and features;
  • produce benchmarks, aggregate statistics, research and reports, and publish or share them (for example, "students studying this subject average N hours per week").

"Aggregated, anonymised and de-identified data" means data that has been stripped of direct identifiers and combined, generalised or otherwise processed so that it no longer identifies you and cannot reasonably be used to identify you, whether on its own or in combination with other information reasonably available to us.

We commit that:

  • we will not attempt to re-identify you from such data, and we will not permit anyone we share it with to do so;
  • we will not publish or disclose it in a form that identifies you or any other individual, and we will not publish your notes, outlines, course names or any other free text you wrote as such;
  • we will not sell your personal information (see the Privacy Policy);
  • once data is genuinely aggregated and de-identified it is no longer personal data, so it may be retained and used indefinitely, including after you delete your content or your account — deleting your account removes your personal data but cannot un-learn a statistic or a trained model that no longer contains it.

Where the law requires consent or an opportunity to object for this use, we will obtain it or offer it. If you would prefer that your data not be included in the pool we draw aggregated and de-identified data from, email support@estudylog.com and we will exclude your account going forward. This right is separate from, and additional to, the licence you granted above; it survives termination of these Terms.

Nothing in this clause gives any third-party AI provider the right to train its own general-purpose models on Your Content — see §8 and the Privacy Policy for how those providers handle the input you submit.

Your representations. You represent and warrant that you own or have all necessary rights to Your Content, that it does not infringe or misappropriate anyone's rights, and that it does not violate these Terms or any law.

Our discretion. We have no obligation to monitor Your Content, but we may review, refuse, remove, or restrict access to any content — particularly community theme posts — at any time, for any reason, without notice and without liability to you. Removing content is a right, not a duty.

Back it up. We are not a backup service. You are responsible for maintaining your own copies of anything you cannot afford to lose.

7. Subscriptions, billing and refunds

What's paid. Some features require an Estudylog premium subscription. Free-tier accounts are subject to limits (for example a maximum number of courses and a limited number of AI timetable imports per 60-day window). We may change what is free and what is paid, prospectively, on notice.

Where you pay. Subscriptions are sold as auto-renewing in-app purchases through the app store you installed the App from — Apple's App Store on iOS, iPadOS, macOS and watchOS, and Google Play on Android. Payment is charged to your Apple Account or your Google Play account at confirmation of purchase. We never process your payment details ourselves and never see your card or bank information.

Auto-renewal. Your subscription renews automatically at the end of each period unless you turn off auto-renew at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Your store account is charged for renewal within 24 hours before the period ends, at the then-current price for the plan.

Managing and cancelling. You manage and cancel subscriptions in the store, not in Estudylog:

Deleting the App, or deleting your Estudylog account, does NOT cancel your subscription and does NOT stop billing. You must cancel through the store.

Cancelling mid-period. Cancellation takes effect at the end of the current paid period. You keep premium access until then. Neither Apple nor Google generally provides partial-period refunds for the unused portion of a term, and neither do we.

Free trials and introductory offers. Where offered, any unused portion of a free trial is forfeited when you purchase a subscription. Eligibility for introductory and promotional offers is determined by the store.

Price changes. We may change subscription prices. Where a change affects an existing subscription, the store will notify you and, where required, seek your consent before the new price takes effect. If you do not agree, cancel before the next renewal.

Refunds. All purchases are made through Apple or Google, and refunds are at that store's sole discretion under its own policies. We cannot issue refunds for purchases made through a store. Request a refund at https://reportaproblem.apple.com (Apple) or https://support.google.com/googleplay (Google). Except where a non-waivable statutory right applies (including consumer rights in Canada and Quebec, the EU, the UK and Australia), fees are non-refundable.

Taxes. Prices shown include or exclude tax as the store determines for your region. You are responsible for any taxes other than our income taxes.

A subscription is for one person. There is no family or group sharing.

  • We do not offer Family Sharing on the Apple App Store, and we do not offer the Google Play family library, for any Estudylog subscription. These options are not enabled for our products, so a subscription you buy cannot be shared with family members, housemates, classmates, a study group, a class, or anyone else.
  • A premium subscription entitles one natural person to premium features, through one Estudylog account. Premium is granted to the Estudylog account that claims the purchase, and to no other account.
  • Signing in to your Estudylog account on several of your own devices is fine and expected (§3). Letting another person use your account, or handing your credentials to someone so they can get premium, is not, and is a breach of §3 and §5.
  • One subscription cannot cover two people at the same time. If two people want premium, two subscriptions are required.
  • Because Apple and Google let a family organiser share downloaded apps, another member of your family group may be able to install Estudylog. Installing the app is not the same as having premium: they will still see the free tier unless they buy their own subscription.
  • Transfers, not sharing. If a subscription bought on your store account has already been claimed by a different Estudylog account, we will never move it automatically — a renewal reaching another device on the same store account must never be able to take premium away from the account using it. Moving a subscription to a different Estudylog account is a deliberate act you take through "Restore Purchases", which asks you to confirm first. After a transfer the previous Estudylog account loses premium.
  • We may revoke premium from any account we reasonably believe is being shared between people, or is otherwise being used in breach of this section, without refund.

Entitlement is server-verified. Premium status is granted only after our server validates the store's signed transaction. If validation fails, or the purchase is refunded, charged back, or found to be fraudulent, we may revoke premium access.

One subscription, all platforms. A premium subscription is tied to your Estudylog account, so it unlocks premium features on every platform where you sign in to that account — but it can only be purchased, managed and cancelled in the store you bought it from.

8. AI features — what they are and what they are not

Estudylog offers optional AI-assisted features, currently: extracting a class timetable from an image you upload, and extracting structured topics from a course outline you paste. These send your input to a third-party AI provider (see the Privacy Policy, §3.7).

By using them you acknowledge and agree that:

  1. Outputs may be wrong. AI extraction can misread times, dates, rooms, course names and topics, can omit entries, and can invent entries that were not there. You must review and verify every result before relying on it.
  2. You are responsible for the input. Do not upload material you do not have the right to upload, or that contains other people's personal or confidential information (§5.13).
  3. They are provided "as is", are subject to quotas, and may be modified, rate-limited, degraded or withdrawn at any time — including for existing subscribers — without liability.
  4. We are not responsible for anything you do in reliance on an AI output. A missed exam, a missed deadline, a wrong timetable, or a lost grade is not a loss we are liable for. See §18 and §19.
  5. These features are not academic, professional, medical, psychological or legal advice.
  6. AI features may be unavailable in some regions or on some plans.

9. Study data is a record, not a guarantee

Estudylog measures and displays timers, durations, streaks, totals, averages, coverage, predictions, insights and other derived figures.

These are best-effort calculations from data recorded on consumer devices. They can be affected by a wrong device clock, a lost network connection, a backgrounded or terminated app, a device restart, iOS reclaiming resources, a sync conflict between devices, a bug, or your own mis-entry. The App includes safeguards (clock-skew detection, offline queues, conflict resolution), and they will not catch everything.

Do not rely on Estudylog as the sole record of anything that matters — hours worked, hours billed, attendance, compliance with a scholarship, funding or visa condition, or any academic or employment requirement. Estudylog is a personal study tracker. It is not a timekeeping system of record, not an attendance system, not an academic advisory service, and not a substitute for your institution's systems.

10. Notifications, calendars, smart lights and other device integrations

Optional integrations depend on permissions you grant and on services outside our control. Which integrations exist depends on your platform — HomeKit, Live Activities, Siri shortcuts, Spotlight and the Apple Watch companion are Apple-platform features with no Android equivalent, and some features are available on one platform before another. We do not guarantee feature parity across iOS, iPadOS, macOS, Android and watchOS.

  • Notifications and reminders depend on iOS notification delivery, your permission settings, Focus modes, Low Power Mode, and device state. We do not guarantee that any reminder will be delivered, or delivered on time. Do not rely on Estudylog reminders for anything critical.
  • Calendar sync writes events into a dedicated "EstudyLog" calendar on your device. It reads events only to de-duplicate its own. Calendar syncing behaviour can be affected by iCloud sync, revoked and re-granted permissions, and multiple devices. We are not responsible for duplicate, missing or misplaced calendar entries, or for anything that follows from one.
  • HomeKit and Govee smart lights control physical hardware. Use is at your own risk. We are not responsible for accessory behaviour, for a light left in an unexpected state, or for any consequence of a light turning on, off, or changing colour. Do not use this feature with any device where an unexpected state could cause harm. Govee use is subject to Govee's terms and requires your own API key.
  • Apple Watch, widgets, Live Activities and Siri shortcuts depend on Apple's frameworks and may be delayed, throttled, or unavailable.

11. Third-party services and links

The Service integrates with, links to, or depends on services operated by third parties — including Apple, Google/Firebase, Discord, Govee, our AI provider, our analytics and error-monitoring providers, and any website we link to.

We do not control them, we do not endorse them, and we are not responsible for them — their availability, accuracy, content, security, terms or privacy practices. Your use of a third-party service is governed by that party's terms and is a relationship between you and them. If you connect Discord, you are also bound by Discord's Terms of Service and Community Guidelines, and conduct in our Discord community may be moderated by us or by Discord.

The bundled catalogue of universities is reference data compiled from a public dataset. Inclusion of an institution implies no affiliation with, endorsement by, or sponsorship from that institution.

12. Beta features, changes, and availability

We may change the Service. We may add, modify, suspend, limit or discontinue any feature, at any time, with or without notice. Some features are released behind remote feature flags and may appear, disappear, or behave differently between users and between builds.

Beta and experimental features are provided for evaluation, may be unstable, may lose data, and may be withdrawn without notice. They are excluded from any commitment or warranty in these Terms.

We do not guarantee uptime. The Service is provided without any service-level commitment. It depends on third-party infrastructure and on your network. Planned and unplanned downtime will happen.

Minimum versions. We may require a minimum app version to keep using the Service, and may block outdated builds from connecting to our backend. Keeping the App up to date is your responsibility.

Territory. Availability also depends on where you are. We may add or remove countries from the list at https://estudylog.com/availability/ at any time (see §2).

Discontinuation. We may discontinue the Service entirely. If we do, we will use commercially reasonable efforts to give notice in the App or by email and, where practicable, a means to export your data before shutdown.

13. Data, privacy and your responsibility for backups

Our handling of personal data is described in the Privacy Policy, which forms part of these Terms.

You acknowledge that:

  • data loss can occur despite our efforts;
  • deleting content in the App is generally permanent and not recoverable by us;
  • deleting your account starts a grace period after which your data is permanently deleted (see the Privacy Policy, §9);
  • you are responsible for maintaining your own independent backups of anything you need.

14. Intellectual property

The Service — including the App, its source code, design, user interface, illustrations, icons, symbols, animations, generated wallpapers and artwork, curated themes, audio, text, the "Estudylog" name and logo, and all related intellectual property — is owned by Estudylog and its licensors and is protected by copyright, trademark and other laws.

Nothing in these Terms transfers any of it to you. All rights not expressly granted are reserved.

You may not use our name, logo, or branding without our prior written permission, except to refer accurately to the Service.

Third-party components are used under their respective open-source or commercial licences; those licences govern those components.

15. Copyright complaints

If you believe content on the Service infringes your copyright, send a notice to support@estudylog.com containing:

  1. your physical or electronic signature;
  2. identification of the copyrighted work claimed to be infringed;
  3. identification of the material claimed to be infringing and enough information to locate it;
  4. your contact information;
  5. a statement that you have a good-faith belief the use is not authorised by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law;
  6. a statement, under penalty of perjury, that the information is accurate and that you are the owner or authorised to act on the owner's behalf.

We will respond in accordance with applicable law and may remove the material and terminate repeat infringers' accounts. Knowingly submitting a false claim may expose you to liability.

16. Suspension and termination

By you. You may stop using the Service at any time, delete the App, and delete your account from within it. Cancel any subscription separately through Apple (§7).

By us. We may suspend or terminate your access, in whole or in part, immediately and without notice, if we reasonably believe you have breached these Terms, if your use creates risk or legal exposure for us or others, if required by law, or if your account has been inactive for an extended period. We may also terminate for convenience on reasonable notice.

Effect. On termination: your licence in §4 ends immediately; you must stop using the Service; we may delete your data, subject to the deletion process and retention periods in the Privacy Policy; and no refund is due, except where a non-waivable statutory right requires one.

Survival. Sections 5, 6 (the licences you granted, to the extent content remains, and the aggregated and de-identified data rights, which survive in full), 8, 9, 13, 14, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23 and 24–29 survive termination.

17. App store terms (Apple and Google)

A. Apple

The following apply to the App as obtained from the Apple App Store, and Apple's rights under them are in addition to everything else in these Terms.

  1. These Terms are between you and Estudylog only, not with Apple. Estudylog, not Apple, is solely responsible for the App and its content.
  2. Scope of licence. Your licence is limited to a non-transferable licence to use the App on Apple-branded products that you own or control, as permitted by the Usage Rules in the App Store Terms of Service, except that the App may be accessed by other accounts associated with you via Family Sharing or volume purchasing. For the avoidance of doubt, this concerns access to the App itself under Apple's Usage Rules; it does not make an Estudylog subscription shareable. Estudylog subscriptions are not enabled for Family Sharing and are for one person only — see §7.
  3. Maintenance and support. Estudylog is solely responsible for providing any maintenance and support for the App. Apple has no obligation whatsoever to furnish any maintenance or support services.
  4. 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) paid for the App. Beyond that refund, to the maximum extent permitted by law, 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 any warranty are Estudylog's sole responsibility.
  5. Product claims. Estudylog, not Apple, is responsible for addressing any claims by you or any third party relating to the App or your possession and use of it, including: (a) product liability claims; (b) any claim that the App fails to conform to any applicable legal or regulatory requirement; and (c) claims arising under consumer protection, privacy, or similar legislation, including in connection with the App's use of the HomeKit framework.
  6. Intellectual property claims. If a third party claims the App or your possession and use of it infringes that third party's intellectual property rights, Estudylog, not Apple, is solely responsible for the investigation, defence, settlement and discharge of that claim.
  7. Legal compliance. You represent and warrant that you are not located in a country subject to a US Government embargo or designated by the US Government as a "terrorist supporting" country, and that you are not listed on any US Government list of prohibited or restricted parties.
  8. Third-party terms. You must comply with any applicable third-party terms of agreement when using the App.
  9. Third-party beneficiary. Apple and Apple's subsidiaries are third-party beneficiaries of these Terms, and upon your acceptance 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.
  10. Contact. Direct any questions, complaints or claims about the App to support@estudylog.com.

B. Google Play

The following apply to the App as obtained from Google Play.

  1. These Terms are between you and Estudylog only, not with Google. Google is not a party to these Terms and is not responsible for the App or its content.
  2. Your use of the App is additionally governed by the Google Play Terms of Service and, for purchases, the Google Play billing terms. Where those terms conflict with these Terms, those terms govern the relationship between you and Google, and these Terms govern the relationship between you and Estudylog.
  3. Estudylog, not Google, is solely responsible for the App, for providing any maintenance and support for it, and for addressing any claim by you or a third party relating to the App — including product liability claims, claims that the App fails to conform to a legal or regulatory requirement, claims arising under consumer protection or privacy legislation, and intellectual property infringement claims.
  4. Google gives no warranty in respect of the App. Refunds for Google Play purchases are handled under Google's refund policy.
  5. You represent that you are not on any Canadian or US Government restricted-party or sanctions list and are not located in a country subject to a comprehensive embargo (see §26).

18. Disclaimer of warranties

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, THE SERVICE IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE", WITH ALL FAULTS AND WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND.

ESTUDYLOG AND ITS OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES, CONTRACTORS, AGENTS, SUPPLIERS AND LICENSORS EXPRESSLY DISCLAIM ALL WARRANTIES, WHETHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED, STATUTORY OR OTHERWISE, INCLUDING ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, QUIET ENJOYMENT, ACCURACY, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT, AND ANY WARRANTIES ARISING OUT OF COURSE OF DEALING, USAGE OR TRADE.

WITHOUT LIMITING THE FOREGOING, WE DO NOT WARRANT THAT: the Service will be uninterrupted, timely, secure, or error-free; that defects will be corrected; that the Service or the servers that make it available are free of viruses or harmful components; that timers, durations, streaks, metrics, insights or AI outputs will be accurate, complete or reliable; that notifications or reminders will be delivered; that calendar events will be created, updated or removed correctly; that data will not be lost; or that the Service will meet your requirements or expectations.

NO ADVICE OR INFORMATION, WHETHER ORAL OR WRITTEN, OBTAINED FROM US OR THROUGH THE SERVICE, CREATES ANY WARRANTY NOT EXPRESSLY STATED IN THESE TERMS.

YOUR USE OF THE SERVICE IS AT YOUR SOLE RISK. You are solely responsible for any damage to your device or loss of data that results from your use of the Service.

Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion of implied warranties or of certain statutory guarantees. In those jurisdictions, the exclusions above apply only to the extent permitted, and you may have rights that these Terms cannot take away — see §20.

19. Limitation of liability

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW:

(a) Excluded damages. IN NO EVENT WILL ESTUDYLOG OR ITS OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES, CONTRACTORS, AGENTS, SUPPLIERS OR LICENSORS BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR FOR ANY LOSS OF PROFITS, REVENUE, GOODWILL, BUSINESS OPPORTUNITY, ACADEMIC STANDING, GRADES, SCHOLARSHIPS, FUNDING, EMPLOYMENT, OR ANY LOSS OR CORRUPTION OF DATA, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THE SERVICE OR THESE TERMS, WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), STRICT LIABILITY, WARRANTY, STATUTE OR ANY OTHER THEORY, EVEN IF WE HAVE BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES, AND EVEN IF A LIMITED REMEDY IS FOUND TO HAVE FAILED OF ITS ESSENTIAL PURPOSE.

(b) Cap on total liability. OUR TOTAL AGGREGATE LIABILITY FOR ALL CLAIMS ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THE SERVICE OR THESE TERMS WILL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF (i) THE TOTAL AMOUNTS YOU ACTUALLY PAID TO US (OR TO APPLE FOR ESTUDYLOG SUBSCRIPTIONS) IN THE TWELVE (12) MONTHS IMMEDIATELY BEFORE THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM, AND (ii) FIFTY UNITED STATES DOLLARS (US$50.00).

(c) Specific exclusions. Without limiting the above, we are not liable for: missed deadlines, exams, classes or appointments; inaccurate timers, durations, streaks or metrics; undelivered, late or duplicated notifications; incorrect, duplicated or missing calendar events; incorrect AI extraction results; loss of a guest account; smart-light or smart-home accessory behaviour; the acts or omissions of Apple, Google, Discord, Govee, our AI provider, or any other third party; or any consequence of your device, operating system, network or configuration.

(d) Basis of the bargain. These limitations are an essential basis of the agreement between us, and reflect the allocation of risk in a Service offered at its stated price. They apply even if a remedy fails of its essential purpose.

(e) Jurisdictional limits. Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or limitation of certain damages. In those jurisdictions our liability is limited to the greatest extent permitted by law. Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence, for fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation, or for any other liability that cannot lawfully be excluded or limited.

20. Consumer rights that these Terms do not affect

If you are a consumer, you may have mandatory statutory rights that cannot be waived by contract. Nothing in these Terms limits them.

  • European Economic Area and United Kingdom. You keep your statutory rights, including the legal guarantee of conformity for digital content and services, and any applicable right of withdrawal. You may bring proceedings in the courts of your country of residence, and the mandatory consumer protection law of your country of residence continues to apply notwithstanding §21.
  • Australia. Our goods and services come with guarantees that cannot be excluded under the Australian Consumer Law.
  • Canada, including Quebec. Nothing in these Terms limits rights you have under applicable consumer protection legislation. If you are a Quebec consumer, the arbitration agreement and class action waiver in §22 do not apply to you, and you may bring your claim before the courts of Quebec.
  • Elsewhere. Equivalent non-waivable local consumer rights continue to apply.

21. Governing law

These Terms and any dispute arising out of or relating to them or to the Service are governed by the laws of the Province of Ontario and the federal laws of Canada applicable therein, without regard to conflict-of-laws principles.

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

Subject to §20 and §22, you and we submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts located in Toronto, Ontario, Canada for any dispute not subject to arbitration, and you waive any objection to that venue on grounds of inconvenient forum.

22. Dispute resolution, arbitration, and class action waiver

Read this section carefully. It affects your legal rights.

22.1 Talk to us first. Before starting any formal proceeding, you agree to try to resolve the dispute informally by emailing support@estudylog.com with a description of the dispute and the relief you seek. We will do the same. If it is not resolved within 60 days, either of us may proceed.

22.2 Binding arbitration (US residents). If you are a resident of the United States, you and Estudylog agree that any dispute, claim or controversy arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Service will be resolved by final and binding individual arbitration, administered by the American Arbitration Association under its Consumer Arbitration Rules, rather than in court — except that either party may bring an individual claim in small claims court if it qualifies, and either party may seek injunctive or equitable relief in court for infringement or misuse of intellectual property. The arbitration will be conducted in English, by a single arbitrator, in the county of your residence or by video or telephone at your election. The Federal Arbitration Act governs the interpretation and enforcement of this section.

22.3 Class action and jury trial waiver. TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, YOU AND ESTUDYLOG EACH WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL AND ANY RIGHT TO BRING OR PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS, COLLECTIVE, CONSOLIDATED OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTION. Claims may be brought only in an individual capacity. The arbitrator may not consolidate claims or preside over any form of representative proceeding. If this waiver is found unenforceable as to a particular claim or remedy, that claim or remedy must be severed and brought in court, and the remainder of §22 continues to apply to all other claims.

22.4 Opting out of arbitration. You may opt out of §22.2 and §22.3 by emailing support@estudylog.com with the subject line "Arbitration Opt-Out", stating your name and the email address on your account, within 30 days of first accepting these Terms. Opting out does not affect any other part of these Terms.

22.5 Who this does not apply to. §22.2 and §22.3 do not apply to consumers in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, Australia, or Quebec, or anywhere else that prohibits pre-dispute arbitration agreements or class action waivers in consumer contracts. Those users may bring claims in their local courts as described in §20.

22.6 Time limit. To the extent permitted by law, any claim arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Service must be brought within one (1) year after it arises, or it is permanently barred.

23. Indemnification

To the maximum extent permitted by law, you agree to defend, indemnify and hold harmless Estudylog and its officers, directors, employees, contractors, agents, suppliers and licensors from and against any claims, demands, liabilities, damages, losses, costs and expenses (including reasonable legal fees) arising out of or relating to: (a) your use or misuse of the Service; (b) Your Content, including anything you upload to the AI features; (c) your breach of these Terms or of any law; (d) your violation of any third party's rights, including intellectual property and privacy rights; or (e) any dispute between you and a third party.

We reserve the right, at our own expense, to assume the exclusive defence and control of any matter otherwise subject to indemnification by you, in which case you agree to cooperate with our defence. This does not apply where the law prohibits it.

24. Changes to these Terms

We may update these Terms. When we do we will change the "Last updated" date and post the revised Terms at https://estudylog.com/terms.

If a change is material, we will give you reasonable advance notice in the App or by email before it takes effect. Continuing to use the Service after the effective date means you accept the revised Terms. If you do not accept them, stop using the Service and, if you wish, delete your account — and cancel any subscription through Apple.

Changes are prospective. They will not apply retroactively to a dispute that arose before the change, unless you agree.

25. Notices

To you: we may give notice by in-app message, by email to the address on your account, or by posting on https://estudylog.com. You are responsible for keeping your email address current. Notice is effective when sent or posted.

To us: send notices to support@estudylog.com, and, where a formal legal notice is required, also by post to Estudylog Inc., Toronto, Ontario, Canada.

You consent to receive communications from us electronically, and agree that electronic communications satisfy any legal requirement that a communication be in writing.

26. Export controls and sanctions

The App and the Service may be subject to export control and sanctions laws, including those of the United States and Canada. You represent that you will not use, export, re-export, or transfer the App in violation of those laws, and that you are not located in, ordinarily resident in, or a national of, any country subject to a comprehensive embargo, and are not on any restricted-party list.

27. US Government end users

The App is "commercial computer software" and "commercial computer software documentation" as those terms are used in 48 C.F.R. §12.212. Consistent with 48 C.F.R. §12.212 and 48 C.F.R. §227.7202-1 through §227.7202-4, US Government end users acquire the App with only those rights set out in these Terms.

28. General

Entire agreement. These Terms, together with the Privacy Policy and any additional terms we present for a specific feature, are the entire agreement between you and us about the Service, and supersede all prior agreements and understandings on that subject.

Severability. If any provision is held unenforceable, it will be modified to the minimum extent necessary to make it enforceable, or severed if it cannot be, and the remainder stays in full force.

No waiver. Our failure to enforce any provision is not a waiver of it. A waiver is effective only if in writing and signed by us.

Assignment. You may not assign or transfer these Terms or any rights under them without our prior written consent; any attempt to do so is void. We may assign them freely, including in connection with a merger, acquisition, reorganisation or sale of assets.

No third-party beneficiaries, except Apple as set out in §17(A)(9).

Independent parties. Nothing in these Terms creates a partnership, joint venture, agency, franchise, or employment relationship.

Force majeure. We are not liable for any failure or delay caused by events beyond our reasonable control, including acts of God, natural disasters, war, terrorism, civil unrest, labour disputes, government action, epidemics, power or internet failures, or the failure of a third-party provider.

Headings are for convenience only and do not affect interpretation. "Including" means "including without limitation".

Language. These Terms are drafted in English. Any translation is provided for convenience; the English version governs in the event of a conflict, except where applicable law requires otherwise. Les parties ont exigé que ces conditions et tous les documents connexes soient rédigés en anglais.
