These Terms of Service (“Terms”) are a binding agreement between you and Quiet Lock (together with its Developer and affiliates, “Quiet Lock,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) governing your access to and use of the Quiet Lock mobile application (“App”) and related services offered through the App (collectively, the “Service”). The Developer is the entity identified as the seller on the App’s page in the Apple App Store.
Important: These Terms include limitations of liability, warranty disclaimers, and dispute-resolution rules (Section 19), including individual arbitration and a class-action waiver only for users in the United States where those provisions are permitted by law where you live. Terms required for Apple-distributed software also apply.
Medical, mental health, and spiritual care disclaimer
The Service is for personal spiritual encouragement, habit support, and general wellness routines only. It is not medical advice, mental health treatment, counseling, pastoral care with a duty of confidentiality, or a substitute for professional advice from a physician, therapist, counselor, clergy member, or other qualified professional. If you are in crisis or may harm yourself or others, contact local emergency services or a crisis hotline immediately. Your use of limiting or blocking features is your responsibility; we do not guarantee any particular therapeutic or spiritual outcome.
By downloading, accessing, or using the Service, you agree to these Terms and our Privacy Policy (incorporated by reference). If you do not agree, do not use the Service.
If you use the Service on behalf of an organization, you represent that you have authority to bind that organization, and “you” includes that organization.
You must be at least 13 years of age to use the Service. If you are at least 13 but under the age of majority where you live, you represent that your parent or legal guardian accepts these Terms on your behalf. The Service is not intended for children under 13.
You may not use the Service if you are barred under applicable law or Apple’s policies.
We may modify these Terms at any time. We will post the updated Terms and update the “Last updated” date. Material changes may require additional notice as required by law. Your continued use after the effective date of changes constitutes acceptance unless applicable law requires express consent.
If you obtain the App through the Apple App Store, you acknowledge that:
For in-app purchases and subscriptions, your transactions are processed by Apple and are also governed by Apple’s Licensed Application End User License Agreement and related App Store terms (“Apple EULA”). If there is a conflict between the Apple EULA and these Terms regarding Apple’s distribution of the App, the Apple EULA controls solely as to Apple’s rights and obligations as distributor.
Subject to your compliance with these Terms, we grant you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable, revocable license to install and use the App for your personal, non-commercial use on Apple-branded devices you own or control, as permitted by Apple’s Usage Rules.
You may not: (a) copy, modify, or create derivative works of the App except as permitted by law; (b) reverse engineer, decompile, or disassemble the App except where statutory rights apply; (c) rent, lease, lend, sell, redistribute, or sublicense the App; (d) remove proprietary notices; (e) circumvent technical limitations; (f) use the Service to develop a competing product; or (g) use automated means to access the Service in a way that burdens our systems.
The Service may operate without a remote user account. Much of your information is stored locally on your device. Optional iCloud Backup (off by default) can sync selected data through Apple’s iCloud private database as described in our Privacy Policy. Block schedules and Screen Time shield selections remain on each device. You are responsible for maintaining device security.
If the App cannot open its local database, you may try again or choose to reset local data from the recovery screen. You may also reset Soul progress from Profile. If you delete the App or reset local data without disabling iCloud Backup, copies in iCloud may remain until you manage them through Apple’s settings.
Access to Quiet Lock requires an auto-renewable subscription offered through in-app purchase processed by Apple. Available plans may include monthly and yearly subscriptions; prices, trial eligibility, and plan length are shown in the App at purchase.
The subscription is also subject to Apple’s Media Services Terms and related App Store rules where applicable. Our Privacy Policy describes how we handle purchase-related information. We may use third-party tools such as Superwall to analyze subscription performance; those tools do not process your payment—Apple remains the merchant of record for App Store charges, cancellations, and refunds.
Optional features may use Apple’s Family Controls / Screen Time APIs to temporarily limit access to apps or categories you select during a prayer session or similar intentional pause (“Blocking Features”).
You may submit content such as prayer points, profile fields, or similar material (“User Content”). You retain ownership of your User Content. To operate the Service, you grant Quiet Lock a worldwide, royalty-free license to host, store, reproduce, display, and process User Content solely to provide, secure, and improve the Service for you (including on-device processing and, if you opt in to iCloud Backup, to sync copies through Apple’s CloudKit private database as described in our Privacy Policy).
You represent that you have all rights necessary to grant this license and that your User Content does not violate law or third-party rights.
We may remove or restrict User Content that violates these Terms or law, though we have no obligation to monitor all content.
You agree not to: (a) misuse or attack the Service; (b) attempt unauthorized access to systems or data; (c) transmit malware; (d) scrape or harvest data except through documented APIs we provide; (e) impersonate others; (f) use the Service for spam, fraud, or hate speech; or (g) use the Service in violation of Apple guidelines, sanctions, export controls, or applicable law.
We may suspend or terminate access for violations.
The Service, including software, visual design, branding, curated prompts, and original compilations, is owned by Quiet Lock or its licensors and protected by intellectual property laws. Except for the license in Section 5, no rights are granted.
The Service may include original prayer and devotional paraphrases inspired by scriptural themes and references. Paraphrases are not represented as official Bible translations. For scripture text, licensing, and attribution of bundled Bible translations, see Section 12.
All rights not expressly granted are reserved.
Quiet Lock bundles complete Bible text for offline reading in the Bible tab. Devotional content may also display short scripture excerpts (for example, from the King James Version). We do not claim copyright in scripture text. The translations listed below are provided in the public domain in the jurisdictions where we distribute the App, though rights associated with publication may vary by jurisdiction (for example, certain Crown-printer editions of the KJV in the United Kingdom).
The bundled translations are:
Bible text is provided “as is.” Quiet Lock does not endorse any church, denomination, or publisher associated with these translations. If you believe any attribution should be corrected, contact support@quietlock.app.
The Service may reference or link to third-party websites, readings, or resources. We do not control and are not responsible for third-party content, availability, or practices. Your interactions with third parties are solely between you and them.
The App also uses third-party service providers to help us operate and improve the Service, including:
Your use of the Service is also subject to those providers’ terms and privacy policies to the extent they apply to data they process on our behalf. We configure these integrations so they are not intended to receive your prayer text or prayer point text, as described in our Privacy Policy.
To the maximum extent permitted by law
THE SERVICE IS PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE” WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, WHETHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED, OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT. WE DO NOT WARRANT THAT THE SERVICE WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, ERROR-FREE, FREE OF HARMFUL COMPONENTS, OR THAT BLOCKING FEATURES WILL PREVENT ALL DISTRACTIONS OR MEET YOUR PERSONAL NEEDS.
Some jurisdictions do not allow certain disclaimers; in those jurisdictions, disclaimers apply to the fullest extent permitted.
To the maximum extent permitted by law
IN NO EVENT WILL QUIET LOCK, ITS DEVELOPER, AFFILIATES, OR THEIR RESPECTIVE OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES, OR AGENTS BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR ANY LOSS OF PROFITS, DATA, GOODWILL, OR OTHER INTANGIBLE LOSSES, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO YOUR USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE SERVICE, EVEN IF ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY.
OUR AGGREGATE LIABILITY FOR CLAIMS ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THE SERVICE OR THESE TERMS IS LIMITED TO THE GREATER OF (A) THE AMOUNT YOU PAID US FOR THE SERVICE IN THE SIX (6) MONTHS BEFORE THE CLAIM (EXCLUDING AMOUNTS PAID TO APPLE) OR (B) FIFTY U.S. DOLLARS (US $50).
NOTHING IN THESE TERMS LIMITS LIABILITY THAT CANNOT BE LIMITED UNDER APPLICABLE LAW (FOR EXAMPLE, LIABILITY FOR GROSS NEGLIGENCE, WILLFUL MISCONDUCT, OR PERSONAL INJURY CAUSED BY NEGLIGENCE IN SOME JURISDICTIONS).
You will defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Quiet Lock and its affiliates from claims, damages, losses, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) arising from your User Content, your misuse of the Service, or your violation of these Terms or law.
We may suspend or terminate your access to the Service at any time with or without notice for conduct that we believe violates these Terms or harms other users or us. Upon termination, the license in Section 5 ends. Provisions that by their nature should survive (including Sections 11–21, to the extent applicable) will survive.
You may not use the Service in embargoed countries or in violation of export control laws. You represent that you are not prohibited from using the Service under applicable law.
Governing law. Except where mandatory consumer or other laws in your country require otherwise, these Terms are governed by the laws of India, without regard to conflict-of-law principles.
Courts in India. Subject to any mandatory right you have to bring a dispute in another forum (including where you live as a consumer), you and Quiet Lock agree that the courts at Bengaluru, Karnataka, India will have exclusive jurisdiction over disputes arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Service, except that Apple-related matters may also be subject to Apple’s App Store terms where applicable.
Consumers in India. If you are a consumer in India, you retain all statutory rights under the Consumer Protection Act, 2019, together with remedies available before consumer commissions or other fora as applicable. These Terms do not limit, waive, or disclaim any right that cannot lawfully be limited, waived, or disclaimed under the CPA, 2019, or other mandatory Indian law.
U.S. residents. If you reside in the United States, the following applies only to the extent permitted by law where you live: for disputes not brought in small claims court, you and Quiet Lock agree that disputes may be resolved by binding individual arbitration under the consumer rules of a recognized arbitration organization, except that either party may bring an individual action in small claims court; you and Quiet Lock waive any right to a jury trial for arbitrable disputes; and unless prohibited by applicable law, you may bring claims only in your individual capacity, not as a plaintiff or class member in any class or representative proceeding. If the class waiver is unenforceable, the arbitration clause may not apply to you to that extent.
EU / UK / Switzerland and other regions. If you are a consumer in a jurisdiction that prohibits arbitration, requires a local forum, or provides other mandatory protections, those laws apply to the extent of any conflict, and you may have rights to complain to a competent authority.
Injunctive relief. Either party may seek equitable relief in a court of competent jurisdiction for infringement or misuse of intellectual property or unauthorized access.
Entire agreement. These Terms and the Privacy Policy are the entire agreement between you and Quiet Lock about the Service.
Severability. If a provision is invalid, the remainder remains in effect.
No waiver. Failure to enforce a provision is not a waiver.
Assignment. You may not assign these Terms without our consent; we may assign in connection with a merger or sale.
Force majeure. We are not liable for delays or failures due to events beyond reasonable control.
Language. These Terms are written in English. We may provide localized copies in the App for convenience. If a localized version conflicts with the English version, the English version controls except where applicable law requires otherwise.
