PindaiTu — Terms of Service
1. Introduction
These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your access to and use of the PindaiTu mobile application and associated services (collectively, the "Service"), provided by InRainST ("we", "us", or "Developer"). By downloading, installing, or using the Service you agree to be bound by these Terms and by our Privacy Policy.
Important: If you do not agree to these Terms, do not download or use the Service.
2. Account & Authentication
The Service may require you to sign in using a third-party account (for example Google Sign-In via Firebase Authentication). Authentication is used primarily for:
- Verifying your identity and preventing fraud;
- Enabling purchases and subscription management (so we and the platform can associate a subscription with your account);
- Allowing you to restore purchases, display subscription expiry/renewal dates, and keep subscription status consistent across your devices.
You are responsible for keeping your account credentials secure and for any activity that occurs under your account. You agree to provide accurate information and to update it as necessary.
Note: Detailed information about what account data is collected and how it is used can be found in the Privacy Policy.
3. Subscription & Paid Features
PindaiTu offers prepaid access to certain premium or locked features. Purchases grant access for a specific period shown on the purchase screen in the app. We use the platform's in‑app purchase system (for example Google Play or Apple App Store) and may use third‑party services such as RevenueCat to help manage purchase status.
3.1 What a purchase provides
- Unlock premium features described in the app;
- Allow synchronization of access entitlements across your devices when you sign in with the same account, enabling restoration of purchases;
- Display active period or expiration date inside the app when available.
3.2 Duration and renewal
Prepaid purchases do not renew automatically. After the purchased period ends, access to premium features will stop unless you manually purchase another access package (top‑up) through the in‑app purchase flow. If you wish to continue using premium features, you must actively repurchase the appropriate access package.
Before completing a purchase, please review the duration and price displayed on the purchase screen. Detailed information about account data and how it is used is available in the Privacy Policy.
Note: Currently we offer purchase options only for the following durations: one month (monthly) and one year (annual). If you choose a monthly or annual package, the exact period and price will be shown on the purchase screen at the time of purchase.
3.3 Restoring access when a feature becomes locked
If a premium feature becomes locked (for example after reinstalling the app or switching devices), you can restore your purchase and re‑enable access by signing in to the app while online using the same Google account that was used to make the original purchase. Once the app verifies the purchase with the store or via our purchase management provider, the feature will be unlocked again.
If you experience problems restoring access, please use the app's restore mechanism and ensure you are connected to the internet and signed in with the correct account. If issues persist, contact support.
4. License & Restrictions
Subject to your compliance with these Terms, we grant you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to install and use the Service on devices you own or control for personal or internal business purposes.
4.1 Prohibited actions
- You must not copy, modify, adapt, translate, or create derivative works of the Service except as expressly permitted by us.
- You must not reverse engineer, decompile, disassemble, or attempt to extract source code from the Service.
- You must not distribute, publish, rent, lease, sublicense, resell, or otherwise make the Service available to third parties without the Developer's prior written permission.
- You must not remove, obscure, or alter any proprietary notices (including copyright and trademark notices) contained in the Service.
5. Purchases, Billing & Refunds
All purchases are processed through the platform's in‑app purchase systems (for example Google Play or Apple App Store). We may use services such as RevenueCat to help manage purchase status, but payment processing and billing are handled by the store/platform where you make your purchase.
5.1 Payment and non‑renewing nature
Purchases in PindaiTu are prepaid / non‑renewing unless otherwise stated on the purchase screen. This means purchases will not be automatically renewed by the store; to extend access, you must manually purchase again. Please ensure you understand the active period for the package you select.
5.2 Failed payment and access
Because purchases do not auto‑renew, there is no risk of recurring charges without your consent. However, if there are technical issues with purchase processing or verification (for example during restore), premium access may be delayed until verification succeeds.
5.3 Refunds
Refunds are generally governed by the policies of the platform where the purchase was made. From the Developer's side, purchases are generally final unless otherwise required by applicable law or the platform's policy. If you wish to request a refund, submit your request via Google Play / App Store according to their procedures; we will cooperate if the platform requests confirmation.
5.4 Restoring purchases
If you change devices, reinstall the app, or find that a feature is locked, you may restore valid purchases using the app's restore mechanism or via the platform's restore feature. To restore, you must be online and sign in with the same Google account used for the original purchase. After successful verification with the store or our purchase management provider, your entitlement will be restored and the premium feature unlocked.
6. Device Permissions & Local Processing
The Service requires certain device permissions to operate (camera, media/photos access, storage write/read). You may revoke these permissions at any time via your device settings, but revoking required permissions will limit the Service functionality.
All document scanning, cropping, enhancement, and PDF generation are performed locally on your device by default. InRainST does not operate cloud backup or server-side storage for scanned documents and does not collect or store your scanned document images, unless you explicitly choose to export or share a document using third-party apps or services. Those third parties' terms and privacy policies apply to any transfers you initiate.
Note: The Service does not currently include OCR functionality unless explicitly stated in the app.
7. User Content & Ownership
You retain ownership of the images and documents you create using the Service ("User Content"). By using the Service you grant the Developer a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free license to operate and provide the Service (for example, to deliver features such as subscription validation via backend services) and to comply with legal obligations. This license does not grant the Developer rights to sell your User Content; the Developer does not claim ownership of your images or documents.
If you import files or content from other parties into the Service, you represent and warrant that you have the right to use those files and that they do not contain harmful or illegal material.
8. Prohibited Uses
You must not use the Service for any illegal purpose or to facilitate illegal activity. Examples of prohibited uses include (but are not limited to):
- Uploading, transmitting, or sharing material that infringes intellectual property rights, privacy rights, or contractual rights of others;
- Using the Service to commit fraud, identity theft, or other unlawful acts;
- Attempting to bypass or defeat security features of the Service or any third-party platform;
- Transmitting, distributing, or facilitating the distribution of malware, spyware, or other malicious code, including when importing, exporting, or sharing files via the Service;
- Using the Service to host or distribute illegal content.
Violation of these Terms may result in termination of your access and may subject you to civil or criminal liability.
9. Third-Party Services
The Service integrates with third-party services such as Firebase (authentication, analytics, crash reporting) and RevenueCat (subscription management). Your use of those third-party services is subject to their terms and privacy policies. We recommend reviewing the privacy policies of those providers.
10. Termination
We may suspend or terminate your access to the Service at our discretion, including for breach of these Terms or for illegal activity. Upon termination, any licenses granted to you will immediately end. Sections that by their nature should survive termination (for example, Intellectual Property, Disclaimer & Limitation of Liability, Indemnity) will continue to apply.
If your access is terminated for a breach, you will not be entitled to a refund except as required by applicable law or the platform's refund policy.
11. Disclaimer & Limitation of Liability
The Service is provided "as is" and "as available" without warranties of any kind, either express or implied. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, InRainST disclaims all warranties, including implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement.
In no event will InRainST be liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or exemplary damages arising out of or in connection with your use of the Service, including loss of profits, loss of data, or business interruption, even if advised of the possibility of such damages.
The total aggregate liability of InRainST for any claim related to the Service will not exceed the amount paid by you, if any, to InRainST for the Service in the twelve (12) months preceding the claim.
12. Indemnity
You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless InRainST, its officers, directors, employees, and agents from and against any claims, liabilities, damages, losses, and expenses (including reasonable legal fees) arising out of or in any way connected with: (a) your breach of these Terms; (b) your use of the Service; or (c) your User Content.
13. Children
The Service is not intended for use by children under the age of 13 (or higher age if required by local law). If you are under the applicable age, do not use the Service. If we become aware that we have collected personal information from a child in a manner that violates applicable law, we will take steps to delete such information.
14. Governing Law & Disputes
These Terms are governed by the laws of the jurisdiction in which the Developer is established, without regard to conflict of law principles. Any dispute arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Service will be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts located in that jurisdiction, unless otherwise required by applicable law.
15. Changes to Terms
We may modify these Terms from time to time. When we make material changes, we will provide notice through the Service or by other means (for example email). Your continued use of the Service after such changes constitutes acceptance of the updated Terms.
16. Acceptance
By downloading, installing, or using the PindaiTu App, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by these Terms of Service and the Privacy Policy.
