By downloading, installing, or using the Swoof application ("App"), you agree to be bound by these Terms of Use ("Terms"). If you do not agree to these Terms, do not use the App.

3. License Grant
Subject to your compliance with these Terms, we grant you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to download, install, and use the App for your personal, non-commercial purposes.

5. User Responsibilities
You agree to:

6. Photo Library Access
The App requires Full Access to your Photos library to provide its core functionality. By granting this permission, you acknowledge that:
- Photo and video processing happens entirely on your device
- Photos you trash inside Swoof are moved to the iOS "Recently Deleted" album — available for recovery in iOS Photos for up to 30 days unless permanently removed sooner; Apple controls this behavior
- You are solely responsible for any decisions to delete or modify your photo library
- You should maintain your own backups (iCloud Photos, Time Machine, or a third-party backup service)
7. Intellectual Property
All content, features, and functionality of the App are the exclusive property of Swoof and its developer, and are protected by international copyright, trademark, and other intellectual property laws.
8. Privacy
Your use of the App is also governed by our Privacy Policy, which is incorporated into these Terms by reference.
9. Disclaimer of Warranties
THE APP IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE" WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED. We do not warrant that the App will be uninterrupted, timely, secure, or error-free. You are responsible for backing up your photo library before using the App's trash and album features.
10. Limitation of Liability
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, IN NO EVENT SHALL SWOOF OR ITS DEVELOPER BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES ARISING FROM YOUR USE OF THE APP, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF PHOTOS, DATA, OR PROFITS.
11. Modifications
We reserve the right to modify or discontinue the App or these Terms at any time. Continued use of the App after changes constitutes acceptance of the modified Terms.
12. Termination
We may terminate or suspend your access to the App immediately, without prior notice, for any reason, including if you breach these Terms.
13. Governing Law
These Terms shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of your country of residence.
