2. Description of Service

Crust Log is a sourdough baking companion application available for iOS that helps bakers track protein percentages, hydration levels, bake times, and recipes. The App includes a reverse bake timer feature that works backwards from a desired completion time and sets reminders for each step of the baking process. The App is designed for personal, non-commercial use.

5. User Content

You retain ownership of all content you create within the App, including recipes, bake logs, notes, photos, timer presets, and any other personal data you enter ("User Content"). By using the App, you grant us a limited license to store and process your User Content solely for the purpose of providing and improving the App's services to you.

You are solely responsible for your User Content. You agree not to enter any content that is unlawful, infringing, or otherwise objectionable.

• Subscriptions automatically renew unless auto-renewal is turned off at least 24 hours before the end of the current billing period.
• Your account will be charged for renewal within 24 hours prior to the end of the current period at the rate of the selected plan.
• You can manage and cancel your subscriptions by going to your Account Settings on the App Store after purchase.
• Any unused portion of a free trial period, if offered, will be forfeited when you purchase a subscription.

9. Third-Party Services

The App may integrate with or rely on third-party services, including but not limited to Apple's iCloud for data synchronization, Apple's notification services for bake timer reminders, and the Apple App Store for purchases. Your use of these third-party services is subject to their respective terms and privacy policies. We are not responsible for the availability, accuracy, or practices of any third-party services.

10. Timer and Notification Disclaimer

The reverse bake timer and associated notifications are provided as a convenience tool to assist with your baking process. While we strive for accuracy, we do not guarantee that reminders will be delivered at exact times, as notification delivery depends on your device settings, network conditions, and operating system behavior. You are responsible for monitoring your baking process. We are not liable for any outcomes resulting from missed or delayed notifications.

11. Disclaimer of Warranties

THE APP IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE" WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT. WE DO NOT WARRANT THAT THE APP WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, ERROR-FREE, OR FREE OF VIRUSES OR OTHER HARMFUL COMPONENTS.

We do not guarantee the accuracy of any calculations, percentages, or timing information generated by the App. All baking results depend on a wide range of variables beyond the App's control.

12. Limitation of Liability

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, IN NO EVENT SHALL CRUST LOG, ITS OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES, OR AGENTS BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION LOSS OF DATA, LOSS OF PROFITS, OR BUSINESS INTERRUPTION, ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH YOUR USE OF THE APP, WHETHER BASED ON WARRANTY, CONTRACT, TORT, OR ANY OTHER LEGAL THEORY, EVEN IF WE HAVE BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

OUR TOTAL LIABILITY TO YOU FOR ALL CLAIMS ARISING FROM OR RELATING TO THE APP SHALL NOT EXCEED THE AMOUNT YOU HAVE PAID TO US FOR THE APP IN THE TWELVE (12) MONTHS PRECEDING THE CLAIM, OR $50.00, WHICHEVER IS GREATER.

13. Indemnification

You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Crust Log and its officers, directors, employees, and agents from and against any and all claims, liabilities, damages, losses, costs, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising out of or related to your use of the App, your User Content, or your violation of these Terms.

14. Termination

Sections relating to Intellectual Property, Disclaimer of Warranties, Limitation of Liability, Indemnification, and Governing Law shall survive any termination of these Terms.

15. Changes to Terms

We reserve the right to modify these Terms at any time. If we make material changes, we will notify you through the App or by other reasonable means. Your continued use of the App after any changes constitutes your acceptance of the new Terms. We encourage you to review these Terms periodically.

16. Governing Law

These Terms shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the United States, without regard to its conflict of law provisions.

In the event of any failure of the App to conform to any applicable warranty, you may notify Apple and Apple will refund the purchase price (if any) for the App. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, Apple has no other warranty obligation with respect to the App.

Apple is not responsible for addressing any claims by you or any third party relating to the App, including product liability claims, consumer protection claims, intellectual property claims, or any claim that the App fails to conform to any applicable legal or regulatory requirement.

Apple and its subsidiaries are third-party beneficiaries of these Terms. Upon your acceptance of these Terms, 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.

18. Severability

If any provision of these Terms is held to be invalid or unenforceable, the remaining provisions shall continue in full force and effect. The invalid or unenforceable provision shall be modified to the minimum extent necessary to make it valid and enforceable.
