Terms of Use

Effective date: 6 June 2026


1. Who we are

Cartavie is made by an independent developer (the "Developer"). References to "we", "us", or "our" in these terms mean the Developer.

2. Acceptance

By downloading, installing, or using Cartavie (the "App"), you agree to these Terms of Use. If you do not agree, please do not use the App.

3. The App & licence

Subject to these terms, the Developer grants you a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable licence to use Cartavie on your Apple devices for personal, non-commercial purposes.

The App is distributed through the Apple App Store. The Apple Standard End User Licence Agreement (EULA) also applies to your use of the App and prevails over these terms wherever they conflict.

4. Purchases

Cartavie Pro is a one-time in-app purchase. All transactions are processed by Apple through the App Store. For refund requests, please visit reportaproblem.apple.com. The Developer has no control over and accepts no liability for refund decisions made by Apple.

5. Your content & data

You own the notebooks and content you create with Cartavie. Your content is stored exclusively on your device and is never transmitted to the Developer or any server.

You are solely responsible for your own backups. Deleting the App from your device permanently deletes all data stored in its sandbox — iOS does not provide a recovery path. To protect your work, export important pages as PDFs regularly, or ensure iCloud Backup is enabled. The Developer cannot recover lost notebooks under any circumstances.

6. AI / fairy painter

The fairy painter feature uses Apple's Image Playground framework, which runs entirely on-device. Use of this feature is also subject to Apple's applicable terms and policies. You are responsible for how you use any images generated through this feature, including ensuring your use complies with applicable laws.

7. Acceptable use

You agree not to:

  • Reverse-engineer, decompile, or disassemble the App.
  • Resell, sublicence, or redistribute the App or any part of it.
  • Use the App for any unlawful purpose or in violation of any applicable law or regulation.
  • Attempt to circumvent any technical measures in the App.

8. Availability, updates & discontinuation

The Developer is an independent individual and provides Cartavie on a best-effort basis. The Developer may, at any time and at their sole discretion, modify, suspend, stop updating, or permanently discontinue the App (in whole or in part), and may remove it from sale, without notice and without liability to you.

The App is licensed to you as-is at the time of your purchase or download. The Developer does not guarantee that the App will remain compatible with, or continue to function on, future versions of iPadOS, iOS, or Apple hardware, and is under no obligation to provide updates, maintenance, bug fixes, or support. Because your notebooks are stored only on your device and can be exported as PDFs at any time, you are responsible for exporting and backing up anything you wish to keep before you stop using the App.

9. Disclaimer of warranties

The App is provided "AS IS" and "AS AVAILABLE", without warranties of any kind — express, implied, or statutory — to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law. This includes, without limitation, no implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, or non-infringement. The Developer does not warrant that the App will be uninterrupted, error-free, or free of harmful components.

10. Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the Developer is not liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or for any loss of data, notebooks, revenue, profits, goodwill, or other intangible losses, arising out of or relating to your use of or inability to use the App, even if the Developer has been advised of the possibility of such damages.

In any case, the Developer's total cumulative liability to you for all claims arising out of or relating to these terms or the App shall not exceed the amount you actually paid for the App (or, if you used the free tier, zero).

11. Changes to these terms

The Developer may update these terms from time to time. The current version will always be available at https://cartavie.com/terms/. Continued use of the App after changes are posted constitutes your acceptance of the revised terms.

12. Governing law

These terms are governed by the laws of Switzerland, without regard to its conflict-of-law provisions. Any disputes shall be submitted to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of Switzerland.
