1. Introduction and Acceptance of Terms
These Terms & Conditions ("Terms") govern your download, installation, and use of ZynPey (the "app") and this companion website, published by [PUBLISHER NAME] ("we," "us," "our"). By installing or using ZynPey, you agree to these Terms. If you don't agree, please don't install or use the app.
These Terms were drafted against the app as it actually exists today — a free, offline, account-free personal finance tracker — rather than assumed functionality. Where a section doesn't apply because the app doesn't have that functionality (for example, payments), it says so explicitly rather than including boilerplate that wouldn't be true.
2. Eligibility and Age Requirements
You must be at least 13 years old to use ZynPey, or the higher minimum age required by your local law for using an app without parental consent, whichever is greater.
[Confirm the minimum age policy for your actual target markets — some jurisdictions set this higher than 13, and ZynPey's own code currently performs no age verification, so this is a stated policy, not an enforced one.]
3. User Account Registration
Not applicable. ZynPey has no account system. There is no sign-up, login, username, password, or server-side profile of any kind — confirmed directly in the app, whose own "Sign Out" screen states: "This app has no account system — everything is stored locally on this device."
The app's Profile screen lets you optionally set a local display name and email address purely for on-screen personalization. This is not registration: it creates no account, is never verified, and is never transmitted anywhere.
4. Account Security and Responsibilities
Because there's no account to secure, this section instead covers your responsibility for your own device and data:
- You are responsible for the physical and digital security of the device ZynPey is installed on.
- You may enable the app's optional biometric/PIN App Lock for an added layer of protection, but you're responsible for deciding whether to use it.
- Any backup file you create is an unencrypted copy of your full financial database. You are solely responsible for storing, sharing, and deleting such files safely.
- We have no way to help you recover data lost due to a lost, wiped, or factory-reset device, since we hold no copy of it.
5. Permitted and Prohibited Uses
You may use ZynPey for your own personal, non-commercial financial tracking. You agree not to:
- Reverse engineer, decompile, or disassemble the app beyond what applicable law expressly permits.
- Resell, sublicense, rent, or redistribute the app or its source code.
- Attempt to bypass, disable, or interfere with the app's App Lock or any other security feature.
- Use the app for any unlawful purpose, including maintaining records of illegal financial activity.
- Misrepresent the app as your own work or remove/alter any copyright or attribution notices.
- Use automated tools to scrape, modify, or tamper with the app's code or local database in ways not intended by its normal use.
6. App Features and Services
ZynPey currently provides the following features, all of which run locally on your device:
- A net worth dashboard, including account balances and a net-worth trend chart.
- Transaction logging, including recurring transactions and duplicate detection.
- Category budgets and savings goals.
- Asset and liability ("My Wealth") tracking.
- Visual reports: income/spending trends, category breakdowns, allocation charts.
- Optional Bank SMS auto-suggest and optional bank statement import (CSV, Excel, text-based PDF).
- Account reconciliation and a refund tracker.
- Local backup and restore, and CSV export via your device's share sheet.
- Optional biometric/PIN App Lock.
These features are provided on an "as is" basis as described in Section 14, and may change as described in Section 12.
7. User Content and User Responsibilities
"User Content" here means the financial data you create in the app — transactions, account names, notes, categories, budgets, goals, assets, and liabilities. Because ZynPey has no server, none of this content is ever uploaded to, hosted by, or reviewed by us.
- You retain full ownership of your own User Content at all times.
- You are solely responsible for the accuracy, legality, and completeness of the data you enter or import.
- ZynPey does not verify, audit, or guarantee the correctness of any figure derived from your data — see our Disclaimer for detail on the limits of automated features like SMS parsing and statement import.
- You are responsible for keeping your own backups; we cannot recover User Content we never had a copy of.
8. Payments, Fees, and Refunds
Not applicable at this time. ZynPey is free to download and use. Based on our review of the app's code, it contains no payment, billing, or in-app purchase functionality, and charges no fees for any feature described in Section 6.
[If a paid tier, one-time purchase, or any fee is introduced in the future, this section must be rewritten before that feature ships — including a real refund policy consistent with Google Play's and Apple's own billing and refund rules, which govern purchases made through their platforms.]
9. Subscriptions and Cancellations
Not applicable at this time. ZynPey has no subscription plans, free trials, or auto-renewing charges of any kind. There is nothing to cancel, because nothing is ever billed.
[If a subscription is introduced in the future, this section must describe billing cycles, cancellation steps, and renewal/cancellation terms consistent with the relevant app store's subscription policies.]
10. Intellectual Property Rights
The ZynPey name, logo, user interface design, and app source code are the property of [PUBLISHER NAME] or its licensors, except for the third-party open-source libraries the app is built on, each of which remains the property of its respective authors and is used under its own open-source license.
These Terms grant you a license to use the app as described in Section 5 — they do not transfer any ownership of the app, its branding, or its code to you. As set out in Section 7, you retain ownership of your own User Content.
11. Third-Party Services and Links
This website links to third-party destinations we don't operate — for example, our Google Play and Apple App Store listings. Those stores, and any other third-party site linked from here, are governed by their own terms and privacy policies, not these Terms. We are not responsible for the content, accuracy, or practices of any third-party site or store.
If you use the app's Share feature to send an export or backup to a third-party app (email, cloud storage, messaging), that third-party app's own terms govern what happens to the file once it leaves ZynPey.
12. Service Availability and Modifications
ZynPey runs entirely on your device and has no server to go offline, so there's no service uptime to guarantee or fail. That said, the app itself may occasionally be affected by operating-system updates, device compatibility issues, or bugs, and we don't guarantee uninterrupted or error-free operation.
We may add, change, or remove features, or release updates, at our discretion. We may also discontinue the app entirely (for example, removing it from app stores), though we'll try to give reasonable notice for changes that materially affect existing functionality where practical.
13. Account Suspension and Termination
Since there's no account to suspend (Section 3), this section covers your license to use the app instead. You may stop using ZynPey and uninstall it at any time — nothing more is required.
We may terminate or restrict the license granted under these Terms if you materially violate Section 5 (Permitted and Prohibited Uses), to the extent we become aware of such a violation. In practice, because we have no account system and no visibility into how you use the app on your own device, this would most realistically apply to redistribution or misuse of the app's code or branding rather than anything about how you track your own finances.
14. Disclaimer of Warranties
ZynPey is provided "as is" and "as available," without warranties of any kind, whether express or implied, including — to the extent permitted by applicable law — implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, title, and non-infringement. We do not warrant that the app will be error-free, uninterrupted, or that any calculation, report, or figure it produces will be accurate, given that every figure depends entirely on data you provide (see our Disclaimer).
Nothing in this section excludes or limits any warranty or right that cannot lawfully be excluded or limited under the consumer-protection law of your country of residence.
15. Limitation of Liability
To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, [PUBLISHER NAME] will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, including financial loss, arising from your use of — or inability to use — the app, or from decisions made based on data, calculations, or reports it displays, even if advised of the possibility of such damages.
This limitation does not apply to liability that cannot be excluded or limited under applicable law, such as liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence, fraud, or fraudulent misrepresentation, or other liability that the law of your jurisdiction does not permit us to limit.
16. Indemnification
To the extent permitted by applicable law, you agree to indemnify and hold [PUBLISHER NAME] harmless from any claim, loss, or expense (including reasonable legal fees) arising from your violation of these Terms, your misuse of the app, or your violation of any law or third party's rights through your use of the app.
[Flagged in the checklist above: confirm with counsel whether this clause is appropriate and enforceable for a free, individual-consumer app in your target markets — broad indemnification clauses against consumers are restricted or unenforceable in some jurisdictions and may need to be narrowed or removed.]
17. Dispute Resolution and Governing Law
If you have a concern, we'd rather hear about it directly first — contact us using Section 19 before pursuing any formal dispute process.
These Terms are governed by the laws of [GOVERNING LAW / JURISDICTION], without regard to its conflict-of-laws principles. Any dispute not resolved informally will be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of [DISPUTE VENUE], unless applicable consumer-protection law in your country of residence grants you the right to bring a claim in your local courts instead, in which case that right is not affected by this clause.
[No arbitration clause is included here because none was confirmed. If you want disputes handled through arbitration rather than courts, that needs to be drafted deliberately with counsel, including how it interacts with any mandatory consumer rights in your target markets.]
18. Changes to These Terms
We may update these Terms as the app or our business model changes — for example, if a future version introduces paid features. Any change will be reflected by updating the "Last Updated" date at the top of this page. For material changes, we'll try to provide additional notice where reasonably possible; since ZynPey has no push-notification capability, any in-app notice would appear the next time you open the app, not as a push alert.
Continuing to use ZynPey after a change to these Terms takes effect means you accept the revised Terms.
