This End User License Agreement ("Agreement") is a legal agreement between you ("you" or "User") and the provider of the Veda 96 application ("we", "us", or "Licensor"). By downloading, installing, or using the Veda 96 mobile application ("App"), you agree to be bound by this Agreement. If you do not agree, do not use the App.

1. Grant of License

Subject to your compliance with this Agreement, we grant you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to download, install, and use the App for your personal, non-commercial use on devices that you own or control. This license does not give you any right to obtain or use source code or to sublicense the App.

2. Description of the App

Veda 96 is a Brahma Muhurta alarm application. It helps you set an alarm for the sacred 48-minute window before sunrise, based on your location and local sunrise time. The App may include optional features such as onboarding, donation prompts, and settings. All core features are provided free of charge.

3. Restrictions

You agree not to:

  • Copy, modify, distribute, sell, or create derivative works of the App or any part of it.
  • Reverse engineer, decompile, or disassemble the App (except to the extent permitted by applicable law).
  • Remove or alter any copyright, trademark, or other proprietary notices in the App.
  • Use the App for any illegal purpose or in violation of any applicable laws or third-party rights.
  • Use the App to transmit malware, spam, or any harmful or unauthorized content.
  • Use automated means (e.g. bots, scripts) to access or use the App in a way that could harm the service or other users.

4. Account and Data

  • You may need to sign in (e.g. via Google or Apple) to use certain features. You are responsible for keeping your account credentials secure and for all activity under your account.
  • Your use of the App and any data we collect are governed by our Privacy Policy, which is incorporated into this Agreement by reference. By using the App, you also agree to the Privacy Policy.

5. Donations

The App may offer optional donation options to support our mission. Any donation you make is voluntary and non-refundable. Donations do not grant you any additional rights, ownership, or guarantees regarding the App. We may use donation platforms (e.g. third-party payment processors) whose terms and privacy policies also apply to those transactions.

6. Intellectual Property

The App, including its name "Veda 96", design, code, graphics, text, and all related materials, is owned by us or our licensors and is protected by copyright, trademark, and other intellectual property laws. This Agreement does not grant you any ownership or rights in the App other than the limited license set out in Section 1.

7. Updates and Availability

  • We may update the App from time to time (e.g. new features, bug fixes). Updates may be subject to additional terms. Continued use after an update constitutes acceptance of the updated terms where applicable.
  • We do not guarantee that the App will be available at all times, in all regions, or on all devices. We may suspend or discontinue the App or any feature with reasonable notice where feasible.

8. Disclaimer of Warranties

THE APP IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE" WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we disclaim all warranties, 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 harmful components. Alarm and notification functionality depends on your device, operating system, and permissions; we do not guarantee that alarms will fire under all circumstances.

9. Limitation of Liability

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW:

  • WE (AND OUR AFFILIATES, LICENSORS, AND SERVICE PROVIDERS) SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, including loss of profits, data, or goodwill, arising from or related to your use of or inability to use the App, even if we have been advised of the possibility of such damages.
  • OUR TOTAL LIABILITY FOR ANY CLAIMS ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE APP SHALL NOT EXCEED THE AMOUNT YOU PAID US IN THE TWELVE (12) MONTHS PRECEDING THE CLAIM, OR, IF YOU PAID NOTHING, TEN UNITED STATES DOLLARS (USD $10).

Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or limitation of certain warranties or liabilities, so some of the above may not apply to you. In such cases, our liability will be limited to the maximum extent permitted by law.

10. Indemnification

You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless us and our affiliates, officers, directors, employees, and agents from and against any claims, damages, losses, liabilities, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising out of or related to: (a) your use of the App, (b) your violation of this Agreement or any law, or (c) your violation of any third-party rights.

11. Termination

  • This license is effective until terminated. You may stop using the App at any time and, where applicable, delete it from your device.
  • We may suspend or terminate your access to the App or your account if we believe you have violated this Agreement or for other legitimate reasons, with or without notice where permitted by law.
  • Upon termination, your right to use the App ceases immediately. Sections that by their nature should survive (including Sections 5–9 and this sentence) will survive termination.

12. Governing Law and Disputes

This Agreement shall be governed by the laws of Japan, without regard to conflict-of-law principles. Any dispute arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the App shall be resolved exclusively in the courts of Tokyo, Japan, and you consent to the personal jurisdiction of such courts. Nothing in this section limits your rights under mandatory consumer protection laws in your country of residence.

13. General

  • Entire agreement. This Agreement (together with the Privacy Policy and any other terms we reference) constitutes the entire agreement between you and us regarding the App and supersedes any prior agreements or understandings.
  • Severability. If any provision of this Agreement is held invalid or unenforceable, the remaining provisions will remain in effect.
  • Waiver. Our failure to enforce any right or provision of this Agreement will not constitute a waiver of such right or provision.
  • Assignment. You may not assign or transfer this Agreement or your rights under it. We may assign this Agreement without restriction.

14. Changes to This Agreement

We may update this EULA from time to time. We will post the updated version with a new "Last updated" date. Your continued use of the App after changes constitutes acceptance of the updated Agreement. For material changes, we may notify you in the App or by other reasonable means. If you do not agree to the updated terms, you must stop using the App.
