Terms of Service

Section 1

Acceptance of Terms

By downloading, installing, or using SquatClock ("the App"), you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service. If you don't agree to these terms, please don't use the App.

These terms apply to all users of the App, whether you're using free features or premium content.

Section 2

Description of Service

SquatClock is a mobile and desktop application that provides:

• Timed reminders to take squat breaks during your workday
• Progress tracking for your daily squat activity
• Customizable timing and notification preferences

The App is designed to encourage movement and is not a medical device or fitness program. It's simply a reminder tool with personality.

Section 3

Your Content

Your ordinary activity data, including squat history, preferences, and settings, belongs to you and is stored locally on your device. The optional community counter transmits only the short-lived anonymous data described in our Privacy Policy.

When you choose the optional custom-character service, prompts, reference images, and purchase and recovery metadata are transmitted to and processed by our servers and service providers as described in Sections 6 and 7 and our Privacy Policy.

You are responsible for maintaining backups of your device if you want to preserve your SquatClock data.

Section 4

License to Use

We grant you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to use SquatClock for your personal, non-commercial use. This license allows you to:

• Download and install the App on your personal devices
• Use all features available to you (free or premium)
• Receive updates and improvements we release

Section 5

Acceptable Use

When using SquatClock, you agree not to:

• Reverse engineer, decompile, or disassemble the App
• Copy, modify, or distribute the App or its content
• Use the App for any illegal purpose
• Attempt to gain unauthorized access to our systems
• Use automated systems or bots to interact with the App
• Remove or alter any proprietary notices or labels

Section 6

Third-Party Services

SquatClock is distributed through:

• Apple App Store (for iOS devices)
• Google Play Store (for Android devices)
• Direct Windows, macOS, and Linux downloads

Your use of these platforms is subject to their respective terms of service. Purchases made through these platforms are also subject to their refund policies.

Paddle acts as merchant of record for custom-character checkout, tax, payment processing, and receipts. Retro Diffusion processes prompts, optional reference images, and generated assets to provide the character service. See our Privacy Policy for details.

Section 7

Custom Characters and Payment

The desktop app is free to download and use, and no payment is required for its reminder, schedule, history, offline, or bundled character features. A custom desktop character is an optional $2.99 one-time purchase through Paddle.

One eligible purchase includes one character, an initial generated candidate, one optional reroll, required idle, walk, and squat animations, signed delivery, email recovery, and activation on up to five installations. Your character code is the recovery credential; you are responsible for keeping it private.

You must have the rights and permission needed for every prompt and reference image you submit. Generation is automated and may produce an approximate likeness rather than an exact portrait. Results can vary, and we do not promise an exact pose, expression, outfit, or resemblance.

Refunds are handled according to applicable law and Paddle's merchant-of-record process. Fraud, abuse, a refund, chargeback, or violation of these Terms may revoke future generation, recovery, download, or activation access. A character package already downloaded for offline use cannot be remotely removed from your device.

Section 8

Intellectual Property

SquatClock, including its name, logo, design, and all related intellectual property, is owned by us and protected by applicable laws.

Section 9

Disclaimer of Warranties

SquatClock is provided "as is" without warranties of any kind. We don't guarantee that:

• The App will be error-free or uninterrupted
• The App will meet your specific requirements
• Results from using the App will be accurate or reliable

Important: SquatClock is not a substitute for professional medical or fitness advice. Always consult with healthcare providers before starting any exercise routine. The App provides reminders, not medical guidance.

Section 10

Limitation of Liability

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

• Any injuries sustained while doing squats or other exercises
• Missed reminders or notification failures
• Loss of data stored on your device
• Any indirect, incidental, or consequential damages
• Issues arising from third-party platforms (app stores)

You use SquatClock at your own risk. Exercise safely and within your physical capabilities.

Section 11

Indemnification

You agree to indemnify and hold harmless SquatClock and its creators from any claims, damages, or expenses arising from:

• Your use of the App
• Your violation of these Terms
• Your violation of any third-party rights

Section 12

Modifications to Terms

We may update these Terms of Service from time to time. When we do:

• We'll update the "Last updated" date at the top
• Significant changes may be noted in app updates
• Continued use of the App constitutes acceptance of new terms

We encourage you to review these terms periodically.

Section 13

Termination

We reserve the right to terminate or suspend your access to SquatClock at any time, for any reason, without notice. Reasons might include:

• Violation of these Terms
• Abusive behavior toward our support team
• Fraudulent activity

You can stop using SquatClock at any time by uninstalling the App.

Section 14

Governing Law

These Terms are governed by the laws of the United States. Any disputes will be resolved in accordance with applicable U.S. law.

Section 15

Severability

If any part of these Terms is found to be unenforceable, the remaining provisions will continue to be valid and enforceable. The unenforceable portion will be interpreted to reflect the original intent as closely as possible.
