To the fullest extent permitted by law, in no event will we be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages arising out of or in connection with your use of the App, even if we have been advised of the possibility of such damages.

8. Governing Law

We may also terminate or suspend the accounts of repeat violators. We may disclose your identity or other information to any third party who claims that your content violates their rights, including intellectual property or privacy rights.

We may take legal action, including referral to law enforcement, for any illegal or unauthorized use of the Services. We cooperate with law enforcement or court orders requesting disclosure of user information.

YOU WAIVE AND HOLD HARMLESS WriteToRun AND ITS AFFILIATES FROM ANY CLAIMS ARISING FROM ACTIONS TAKEN IN GOOD FAITH TO ENFORCE THESE TERMS OR COMPLY WITH LAW.

However, we cannot and do not review all content before it is posted, and we assume no liability for any user content or communications posted on the Services.

10. Responsibility for Content and Third-Party Services

Any information or User Content publicly posted or privately transmitted through the Services is the sole responsibility of the person from whom such Content originated. You access all such information and Content at your own risk, and we are not liable for any errors, omissions, or damages you may suffer in connection with it.

You are responsible for all Content you contribute to the Services and represent and warrant that you have all rights necessary to do so in the manner in which you contribute it.

The Services may contain links or connections to third-party websites or services that are not owned or controlled by WriteToRun. You acknowledge that accessing third-party websites or using third-party services involves risks, and WriteToRun is not responsible for such risks, including content, accuracy, privacy policies, or practices of third parties.

Interactions with other users or third-party organizations, including transactions, deliveries, or agreements, are solely between you and the other party. WriteToRun is not responsible or liable for any loss or damage incurred as a result of such interactions.

If disputes arise between users or between a user and a third party, you release WriteToRun and its affiliates from any claims, demands, or damages of every kind arising out of or related to such disputes.

11. Fees and Paid Services

WriteToRun offers both a free tier and a premium tier of the Services (the "Paid Services"). Access to the free tier is at no cost. If you choose to subscribe to the premium tier, you agree to pay all applicable fees for that tier.

Payment Processing: All payments for the premium tier are processed through the App Store (or other applicable payment processors). By subscribing, you authorize us to charge your chosen payment method for the applicable fees. You agree to provide accurate and up-to-date billing information and to promptly update it if any information changes.

Free Trials and Promotions: If you are offered a free trial or other promotion for the Paid Services, it must be used within the specified time period. You must cancel before the trial ends to avoid being charged. If you are inadvertently charged during a free trial, please contact us at support@writetorun.com.

Refunds: All refunds are handled by the applicable App Store or payment processor in accordance with their terms. WriteToRun is not responsible for processing or issuing refunds directly.

12. Termination and Stopping Use of the Services

You may stop using the Services at any time by deleting your account or contacting us at support@writetorun.com. Please review our Privacy Policy and the licenses granted herein to understand how we treat your information after you stop using the Services.

WriteToRun may also suspend or terminate your account or access to the Services at its discretion, including if you violate these Terms. Account termination may result in the deletion of your User Content. We recommend downloading any content you wish to keep prior to termination.

If your account is deleted by mistake, contact us immediately at support@writetorun.com. We will try to assist, but cannot guarantee recovery of content.

Certain provisions of these Terms, by their nature, will survive termination. These include, without limitation, obligations to pay fees, intellectual property rights, limitations of liability, indemnification, and dispute resolution provisions, including arbitration.

13. Mobile Applications and In-App Purchases

You acknowledge that the availability of the WriteToRun mobile application depends on third-party stores, including the Apple App Store. Your license to use the app is conditioned upon your compliance with the App Store’s terms and conditions. To the extent Apple’s terms conflict with these Terms, the more restrictive or conflicting terms in these Terms of Use apply.

Through the mobile application, you may make In-App Purchases to access premium features. All payments are processed through Apple iTunes and are subject to Apple’s terms and conditions (link). WriteToRun is not a party to these transactions and is not responsible for handling billing issues, refunds, or disputes relating to In-App Purchases.

14. Use of iOS Application and Apple App Store Terms

These Terms apply to your use of the WriteToRun iOS application (the "Application") available via the Apple App Store. In addition to these Terms, the following apply:

• If the Application fails to conform to any warranty, your sole remedy is to notify Apple for a potential refund of the purchase price.
• WriteToRun, not Apple, is responsible for addressing any claims relating to the Application, including intellectual property claims.
• You represent that you are not in a country subject to U.S. embargoes or on any prohibited parties list.
• You agree to comply with any applicable third-party terms that affect your use of the Application.

Your continued use of the App after any modification constitutes your acceptance of the new Terms.

Warranty, Liability, and Dispute Resolution

Warranty Disclaimer: The Services and all Content provided through them are offered "AS IS" and "AS AVAILABLE," without warranties of any kind, whether express or implied, including but not limited to warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement, or uninterrupted or error-free operation. WriteToRun and its affiliates, licensors, and partners (collectively, the "WriteToRun Parties") make no representations or warranties regarding the accuracy, legality, or decency of any Content or any recommendations, suggestions, or purchases made through the Services.

Limitation of Liability: To the fullest extent permitted by law, the WriteToRun Parties shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, or consequential damages, including lost profits, business interruption, loss of data, or any matter beyond our reasonable control. Nothing in these Terms shall exclude or limit liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence, fraud, or any other liability which cannot be excluded or limited under applicable UK law.

Indemnity: You agree to indemnify and hold harmless the WriteToRun Parties from any claims, liabilities, damages, losses, or expenses (including reasonable legal fees) arising from your use of the Services, any content you contribute, or your violation of these Terms.

Dispute Resolution: Any dispute arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Services shall first be attempted to be resolved amicably through good-faith negotiations. If the dispute cannot be resolved informally, it shall be referred to and finally resolved by arbitration under the Arbitration Act 1996 (UK) or the rules of a recognised UK arbitration service, as agreed by the parties. You may also bring claims in a UK small claims court if eligible.

Governing Law and Jurisdiction: These Terms are governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of England and Wales. The courts of England and Wales shall have exclusive jurisdiction over any disputes not resolved through arbitration or small claims procedures.

Severability and Miscellaneous: If any provision of this section is found to be invalid or unenforceable under UK law, the remaining provisions will remain in full force and effect. These Terms represent the complete agreement between you and WriteToRun regarding the Services and supersede all prior agreements or communications.
