Terms of Service

These Terms of Service ("Terms") are a binding agreement between you ("you," "User") and JSC Biz LLC ("Company," "we," "us"). They govern your access to and use of the PresenceProof family of applications and services, including ProveMeHere, VeriPlace, and related software, websites, and features (collectively, the "Services").

You accept these Terms by tapping "I Agree" (or similar) when presented, and/or by downloading, accessing, or using the Services. Where the app presents an in-app acceptance step, your acceptance is recorded as a cryptographically signed consent record stored on your own device and, where enabled, in your own private iCloud — we retain no copy (see Section 13). If you do not agree, do not use the Services. If you are using the Services on behalf of an organization, you represent that you have authority to bind it.

Relationship to the App Store license. Your license to the ProveMeHere iOS/watchOS application software is governed by Apple's Licensed Application End User License Agreement (the "Standard EULA," available at https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/). These Terms govern the Services themselves — the features, records, verification, subscriptions, and websites — and, as between these Terms and the Standard EULA, these Terms control as to the Services and the Standard EULA controls as to the application software license.

The Services allow a user to generate cryptographically signed records ("PresenceStamps" or "tokens") intended to evidence that a device was at a particular location at a particular time, and to allow third parties to verify those records. The Services use device hardware security features (including, where available, the Apple Secure Enclave and App Attest), cryptographic signatures, GPS data, and optional third-party timestamping. Depending on your device and tier, the Services include related features such as dual-device co-signing with a paired Apple Watch, QR-code and document (JSON/PDF/paper) export and sharing of records, backup of records to your own private iCloud, informational labeling of records by audience context (see Section 6), and an informational integrity score displayed with a record.

What the Services do: produce tamper-evident, hardware-signed records designed to make alteration detectable and to support verification of a record's integrity and origin.

What the Services do NOT do: the Services do not encrypt or conceal the contents of a record; do not guarantee that any record will be admitted or accepted as evidence in any legal, regulatory, or administrative proceeding, or given any particular weight; do not establish the legal identity of any person (only that a record was produced by a particular device under particular conditions); do not prove intent; and do not constitute a tracking, monitoring, emergency, medical, or legal service.

You must be at least the age of majority in your jurisdiction to accept these Terms and to make purchases through the Services. If you are a minor, you may use the Services only if a parent or legal guardian reviews and agrees to these Terms on your behalf and supervises your use. You are responsible for maintaining the security of your device and for all activity that occurs under your use.

The Services offer free, trial, subscription, and one-time purchase options.

• Free trial. The trial includes a limited allowance of verified stamps (currently five (5)) usable within a limited period (currently sixty (60) days beginning at your first stamp), whichever is exhausted first, as described in the app. Trial state is recorded on your device and in your own private iCloud so that it persists across reinstalls and devices.
• Subscriptions (Basic and Pro, in monthly and annual periods) automatically renew until cancelled and set the allowance of verified stamps included per month, as disclosed in the app at the point of purchase, before you are charged. Subscribing supersedes any remaining trial allowance with your subscription allowance.
• One-time purchases are consumable credits — for example, a single verified stamp, a single court-grade (timestamped) stamp, or the upgrade of one existing stamp — spent on the described action on the device of purchase. They are not subscriptions and do not renew.
• Payment is charged to your Apple Account at confirmation of purchase. Subscriptions automatically renew unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period; your account is charged for renewal, at the then-current price shown in the App Store, within 24 hours prior to the end of the current period.
• You manage and cancel subscriptions through your Apple App Store account settings. We do not process or store your payment details; Apple does.
• Except where required by law or Apple policy, payments are non-refundable. Refunds are handled by Apple under its policies.

You agree that you will not use the Services to harass, abuse, stalk, threaten, or defame any person or entity, and you acknowledge that we are not responsible for any such use. Without limiting the foregoing, you agree NOT to:

• Track, surveil, monitor, or locate any person without that person's knowing and informed consent;
• Attempt to forge, spoof, alter, falsify, or misrepresent any record or verification result;
• Use the Services for any unlawful purpose or in violation of any applicable hunting, boating, aviation, or other law or regulation;
• Reverse engineer, decompile, disassemble, or attempt to extract cryptographic keys or circumvent security features, except to the extent applicable law expressly permits despite this limitation;
• Misrepresent the meaning, reliability, or legal status of any record produced by the Services.

We may suspend or terminate access for any violation of this Section.

Any location, time, solar, or related data displayed or recorded by the Services is provided for general informational purposes only and is not guaranteed by us or our agents. Location accuracy depends on factors outside our control, including device hardware, GPS signal, and environmental conditions.

Audience labels are not legal determinations. The Services may label records with audience-specific context — for example, legal shooting hours (civil twilight), navigation-light requirements, or loggable night flight time. These labels are informational computations derived from solar and time data. They are NOT legal determinations, legal advice, or statements of the law of any jurisdiction, and they may not reflect the rules that apply to you, where you are, at that moment. You are solely responsible for knowing and complying with all laws applicable to your activity and your use of location features, including any laws governing the recording or sharing of another person's location.

The Services, including all software, designs, trademarks (including PresenceProof, ProveMeHere, VeriPlace, and related marks), and content, are owned by JSC Biz LLC and protected by applicable law. Subject to these Terms (and, for the application software, the Standard EULA and Apple's Usage Rules, including Section 16.2), we grant you a limited, revocable, non-transferable, non-exclusive license to use the Services for their intended purpose. Records you generate belong to you; you grant us only the limited rights necessary to provide the Services.

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, THE SERVICES ARE PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE," WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, WHETHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED, OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT. WE DO NOT WARRANT THAT THE SERVICES WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, ERROR-FREE, OR SECURE, OR THAT ANY RECORD WILL BE ERROR-FREE OR SUITABLE FOR ANY PARTICULAR PURPOSE. SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OF CERTAIN WARRANTIES, SO SOME OF THE ABOVE MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.

To the maximum extent permitted by law, you agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless JSC Biz LLC and its owners, employees, and agents from any claims, damages, liabilities, costs, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising from: (a) your use or misuse of the Services; (b) your violation of these Terms; (c) your reliance on or use of any record in any context; or (d) your violation of any law or third-party right, including any non-consensual tracking, surveillance, or recording.

Your use of the Services is also governed by our Privacy Policy at https://jscbiz.com/privacy, incorporated by reference.

Consent records. Where the app records your acceptance of these Terms, that consent record contains integrity data only — a cryptographic hash of the Terms version you accepted, a cryptographic signature from your device, the app version, and a timestamp. It never contains your location or the contents of any stamp. We retain no copy of your consent record: it is stored only on your device and, where enabled, in your own private iCloud.

The Services rely on third parties, including Apple (hardware, App Store, iCloud, App Attest); a third-party timestamp authority (currently DigiCert, Inc.), which receives only an anonymous cryptographic hash and never your location or identity; Cloudflare, Inc., on whose infrastructure our verification and attestation services run; and Formspree, Inc. (optional, user-initiated support and diagnostic submissions only). We are not responsible for third-party services, and their terms and policies apply to their portions. You agree to comply with all applicable third-party terms when using the Services.

We may modify or discontinue the Services or these Terms at any time. We will post updated Terms with a revised "Last updated" date and, where required, provide notice and/or request renewed acceptance (which may be recorded as a new signed consent record). Continued use after changes take effect constitutes acceptance. We may suspend or terminate your access at any time for violation of these Terms or for any lawful reason. Sections 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, and 16 survive termination.

You and JSC Biz LLC acknowledge and agree that:

1. Not with Apple. These Terms are concluded between you and JSC Biz LLC only, and not with Apple. JSC Biz LLC, not Apple, is solely responsible for the Services and their content.
2. Scope. Your license to use the application is a non-transferable license to use it on any Apple-branded products you own or control, as permitted by the Usage Rules in the Apple Media Services Terms and Conditions, except that the application may be accessed and used by other accounts associated with you via Family Sharing or volume purchasing.
3. Maintenance and support. JSC Biz LLC is solely responsible for maintenance and support; Apple has no obligation to furnish any.
4. Warranty. To the maximum extent permitted by law, Apple has no warranty obligation with respect to the application. If the application fails to conform to any applicable warranty, you may notify Apple, and Apple will refund the purchase price (if any) to you; any other claims relating to a warranty failure are JSC Biz LLC's sole responsibility.
5. Product and IP claims. JSC Biz LLC, not Apple, is responsible for addressing any claims by you or any third party relating to the application, including product-liability claims; claims that the application fails to conform to legal or regulatory requirements; claims arising under consumer-protection, privacy, or similar legislation; and intellectual-property claims. In the event of any third-party claim that the application or your possession and use of it infringes that third party's intellectual property rights, JSC Biz LLC, not Apple, will be solely responsible for the investigation, defense, settlement, and discharge of any such claim.
6. Legal compliance. You represent that you are not located in a country subject to a U.S. Government embargo or designated as a "terrorist supporting" country, and that you are not listed on any U.S. Government list of prohibited or restricted parties.
7. Third-party beneficiary. Apple and its subsidiaries are third-party beneficiaries of these Terms, and 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.
8. No conflict with Apple terms. Nothing in these Terms is less restrictive than, or conflicts with, Apple's Usage Rules or Media Services Terms and Conditions. To the extent of any conflict, Apple's terms control as to the Apple-related subject matter.

If any provision is held unenforceable, it will be limited or severed to the minimum extent necessary so that the remaining Terms stay in effect (severability). These Terms, together with the Standard EULA as to the application software license, are the entire agreement regarding the Services. Our failure to enforce a provision is not a waiver. You may not assign these Terms; we may. Headings are for convenience only.
