Terms of Service & End-User License Agreement

Last updated: 2026 · DiscVault beta

These Terms of Service and End-User License Agreement (the "Terms") are a legal agreement between you ("you") and the developer of DiscVault ("we", "us") governing your use of the DiscVault mobile application and its updates (the "App"). By downloading, installing, or using the App, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, do not install or use the App.

1. License

We grant you a personal, limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to install and use the App on devices you own or control, for your own personal, non-commercial purpose of cataloging your physical media collection. This license does not transfer any ownership of the App to you.

2. Your data is yours, and it lives on your device

DiscVault is local-first: your collection and all content you add are stored on your device, not on our servers. How we handle data is described in our Privacy Policy, which is incorporated into these Terms.

You are responsible for your own backups. Because your data lives only on your device, clearing the app's data, losing your device, or uninstalling the App will permanently delete your collection. The App provides CSV and JSON export from Settings so you can back up your data; we are not responsible for any loss of data.

3. Third-party content and services

The App can retrieve information from third-party services at your direction, including The Movie Database (TMDB) for film metadata and artwork, and UPCItemDB for barcode lookups. Your use of those services is subject to their own terms. Metadata, cover art, and other third-party content remain the property of their respective owners and are provided for your personal reference only. This product uses the TMDB API but is not endorsed or certified by TMDB.

4. Purchases, licenses, and beta codes

The App may offer optional paid features or unlock codes (for example, a "Pro" upgrade or a beta access code). Any such purchase grants you the license described above for the relevant features and is for your personal use only. Codes and entitlements are non-transferable and may not be resold. Unless required by applicable law or expressly stated at the time of purchase, all sales are final. Where a purchase is made through a third-party store or payment processor, that provider's refund and billing terms also apply.

5. Acceptable use

You agree not to: (a) copy, modify, reverse-engineer, decompile, or attempt to extract the source code of the App, except to the extent this restriction is prohibited by law; (b) rent, lease, sell, sublicense, or redistribute the App; (c) use the App to infringe anyone's intellectual property or to store or share unlawful content; (d) circumvent, disable, or interfere with any security, licensing, or rate-limiting features; or (e) use the App in any way that violates applicable law.

6. Intellectual property

The App, including its design, code, name, logo, and original content, is owned by us and is protected by intellectual-property laws. Except for the license granted above, we reserve all rights. Content that you create or add (such as your notes and photos) remains yours.

7. Beta software

The App is provided as a beta release. It may contain bugs, may change or be discontinued, and may not operate reliably. Features may be added, modified, or removed at any time.

8. Disclaimer of warranties

The App is provided "as is" and "as available," without warranties of any kind, whether express, implied, or statutory, including any implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, accuracy, and non-infringement. We do not warrant that the App will be uninterrupted, error-free, or that any data or metadata it displays is accurate or complete.

9. Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, in no event will we be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or for any loss of data, profits, or goodwill, arising out of or related to your use of (or inability to use) the App. Our total liability for all claims relating to the App will not exceed the greater of the amount you paid for the App in the twelve months before the claim, or USD $10. Some jurisdictions do not allow certain limitations, so some of the above may not apply to you.

10. Distribution

The App may be distributed through third-party application stores, including the Solana dApp Store. We are not affiliated with, sponsored by, or endorsed by any such store, and your download of the App may also be subject to that store's terms. Any such store and its operators are not responsible for the App and are not party to these Terms.

11. Termination

This license is effective until terminated. It terminates automatically if you breach these Terms. You may terminate at any time by uninstalling the App. On termination, you must stop using the App; the disclaimers and liability limits above survive.

12. Changes to these Terms

We may update these Terms from time to time. The updated version will be posted on this page with a revised "last updated" date, and your continued use of the App after changes take effect constitutes acceptance of the revised Terms.

13. Governing law

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of South Carolina, United States, without regard to its conflict-of-laws rules, and you agree to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts located there, except where applicable law gives you the right to bring a claim elsewhere.
