Terms of Service

Agreeing to these terms

TrialCut is published by {{LEGAL_NAME}}, an individual developer, at {{POSTAL_ADDRESS}} ("we", "us"). By downloading, signing into or using the app, you agree to these terms. If you do not agree, please do not use it.

How we handle your data is covered separately and in more detail by our Privacy Policy, which forms part of this agreement.

You must be at least 16 years old and able to enter a binding contract.

What TrialCut does

With your permission, TrialCut searches your Gmail for free trials you have started, works out when each one converts into a paid charge, warns you before that happens, and — when you tell it to — sends a cancellation email from your own address and then watches your inbox for the merchant's reply.

It is a tool for free trials. It is not a subscription manager, it does not connect to your bank or your cards, and it never logs in anywhere as you.

What we do not promise

These limits are how the product is designed, not fine print bolted on afterwards. We would rather you knew them before you paid.

• We do not promise to find every trial. We can only see what is in the mailbox you connect, within the search window described in the Privacy Policy. A trial you started with a different email address, or one that never sent you a confirmation, will not appear. Nor can we see a trial you started before you installed the app if the merchant's email has been deleted.
• We do not promise the dates and amounts are right. They are extracted from what the merchant wrote to you. Where we are unsure, the app says so and asks you to confirm before it schedules anything. You remain responsible for your own subscriptions.
• We do not promise the merchant will honour a cancellation, act on it promptly, or reply at all. We can send a clear, timely request from your own address. What the merchant then does is between you and them.
• We do not guarantee any outcome, and we do not pay you back. There is no payout promise and no cover if you are charged anyway. If a charge lands despite everything, TrialCut records it in your history and stops there.
• We do not help with refunds, chargebacks or disputes against a merchant. That is deliberately outside what this app does.
• Nothing in the app is legal advice. Whether an emailed cancellation is legally effective depends on the merchant's terms and on the law where you live, and it varies. We make no representation either way. If it matters, cancel through the merchant's own stated channel as well.

Your account

You sign in with Google. Keep your Google account secure — anyone with access to it can reach your TrialCut account, and can read the same mail we do. One account is for one person; do not share it.

You are responsible for what you send through the app, and for the accuracy of anything you edit before sending.

Subscription, billing and refunds

Scanning your inbox and seeing what it found are free. Everything after that — the detailed ledger, alerts, and cancelling — requires a subscription. There is no free tier and no free trial of TrialCut itself. (An app about trials that starts with a trial you might forget would be a poor joke.)

• The subscription is US$4.99 per month, or a discounted annual plan. The price that applies to you is the one shown in the App Store at the moment you subscribe, in your local currency and including any tax.
• It is an auto-renewing subscription billed by Apple. It renews for the same period unless you cancel at least 24 hours before the current period ends. Apple charges your account within 24 hours of the renewal date.
• Cancel it in your Apple subscription settings — Settings → your name → Subscriptions on your device, or apps.apple.com/account/subscriptions. We cannot cancel it for you, and deleting your TrialCut account does not stop the billing. Cancelling stops the next renewal; the period you have already paid for runs to its end.
• Refunds are handled by Apple, not by us. We never receive your payment details and have no ability to issue a refund. Request one at reportaproblem.apple.com. Where the law where you live gives you a statutory right to cancel or be refunded, that right stands regardless of anything here.
• If we change the price, you will be told in advance and the change will only apply from a renewal after you have had the chance to cancel.

If a payment fails, the paid features — the detailed ledger, alerts and cancelling — stop straight away while Apple retries the charge. Being mid-retry is not the same as being subscribed, and one rule governs every paid surface in the app. The app shows a link to fix your payment method, and access returns as soon as the payment goes through.

If your subscription lapses, nothing is deleted. Alerts stop being delivered and the detailed ledger locks. Everything is kept, and resubscribing restores it without another scan.

When alerts are delivered

A warning reaches you only if two things are true at the moment it comes due: you have an active subscription, and you have turned notifications on. Notifications are off until you enable them, so a subscriber who skips that step is warned about nothing. You can change both at any time.

No warning is sent about a charge date that has already passed — a backlog cannot usefully warn you about something that has already happened. A lapse cancels nothing and resubscribing reschedules nothing: your trials and their warnings are still there.

Alerts are a convenience, not a safety net. Push delivery depends on Apple and on your device and network, and we cannot guarantee any particular notification arrives or arrives on time. Do not rely on TrialCut alone for a charge you cannot afford to take.

Your authorisation to send email on your behalf

This section is the permission you give us, and its limits.

When you tap send on a cancellation, you authorise us to send that message from your Gmail account, on your behalf, using the send permission you granted to Google. This authorisation is limited to exactly that. Specifically, we will:

• send only cancellation requests, and nothing else, ever;
• send only after you have tapped send on that specific message — there is no automatic or scheduled sending, and no bulk send;
• show you the exact recipient address, where we got it from, and the full text before anything goes, and let you edit the text or abandon it;
• store what you approved, verbatim, so you have a record of what was said in your name.

And we will never:

• send to an address you were not shown;
• send anything marketing our own product from your account, or add a signature, footer or any branding of ours to your message;
• use an address obtained through your Google sign-in, or any address found in your mail, to market anything to anyone.

You can withdraw this authorisation at any time by disconnecting your inbox in Settings, or by revoking access at myaccount.google.com. Withdrawal takes effect immediately for anything not already sent. A message that has already left your account cannot be recalled by either of us.

You confirm that the Google account you connect is yours and that you are entitled to send mail from it.

Acceptable use

Do not use TrialCut to send anything abusive, deceptive or unlawful; to cancel an account that is not yours; to harass a merchant; or to send volumes of mail that would amount to spam. Do not attempt to break, overload, reverse-engineer or circumvent the service or its paywall, or to access anyone else's data. Do not use it in a way that breaches Google's or Apple's own terms, which apply to you alongside these.

Merchants are not our partners

TrialCut is independent. We are not affiliated with, endorsed by, or acting as an agent for any merchant named in the app or on this site, and merchant names and logos belong to their owners. We take no commission and have no affiliate arrangements — nothing in the app is recommended to you because someone paid for it to be. Your relationship with a merchant, and their terms, remain entirely between the two of you.

Licence, and the terms Apple requires

We grant you a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable licence to use TrialCut on Apple-branded devices that you own or control, as permitted by the Apple Media Services Terms and Conditions. You may not copy, modify, distribute, sell, lease or reverse-engineer the app, except where the law expressly permits it. We keep all intellectual property rights in the app; you keep everything of yours.

1. Acknowledgement

This agreement is between you and us only, and not with Apple. We alone, not Apple, are responsible for TrialCut and its content. This agreement does not conflict with the Apple Media Services Terms and Conditions.

2. Scope of licence

The licence granted above is non-transferable and limited to using TrialCut on Apple-branded products that you own or control, as permitted by the Usage Rules in the Apple Media Services Terms and Conditions, save that it may be accessed by other accounts associated with you via Family Sharing or volume purchasing.

3. Maintenance and support

We are solely responsible for providing any maintenance and support for TrialCut, as specified in these terms or required by law. Apple has no obligation whatsoever to furnish any maintenance and support services for it.

4. Warranty

We are solely responsible for any product warranties, whether express or implied by law, to the extent not effectively disclaimed. If TrialCut fails to conform to any applicable warranty, you may notify Apple, and Apple will refund the purchase price of the app to you (if any); to the maximum extent permitted by law, Apple has no other warranty obligation whatsoever with respect to it, and any other claims, losses, liabilities, damages, costs or expenses attributable to a failure to conform to any warranty are our sole responsibility.

5. Product claims

We, not Apple, are responsible for addressing any claims by you or a third party relating to TrialCut or your possession and use of it, including: (i) product liability claims; (ii) any claim that it fails to conform to an applicable legal or regulatory requirement; and (iii) claims arising under consumer protection, privacy or similar legislation, including in connection with its use of HealthKit and HomeKit frameworks (which TrialCut does not use).

6. Intellectual property rights

We, not Apple, are solely responsible for the investigation, defence, settlement and discharge of any third-party claim that TrialCut or your possession and use of it infringes that third party's intellectual property rights.

7. Legal compliance

You represent and warrant that you are not located in a country subject to a U.S. Government embargo, or designated by the U.S. Government as a "terrorist supporting" country, and that you are not listed on any U.S. Government list of prohibited or restricted parties.

8. Developer name and address

Questions, complaints and claims about TrialCut should be directed to {{LEGAL_NAME}}, {{POSTAL_ADDRESS}}, ckjergu@gmail.com.

9. Third-party terms of agreement

You must comply with applicable third-party terms when using TrialCut — in particular Google's terms governing the Google account and Gmail data you connect, and Apple's terms governing your device and your subscription.

10. Third-party beneficiary

You acknowledge and agree that Apple and Apple's subsidiaries are third-party beneficiaries of this agreement, and that upon your acceptance of it Apple will have the right (and will be deemed to have accepted the right) to enforce it against you as a third-party beneficiary.

Disclaimers

TrialCut is provided as is and as available. To the extent the law allows, we disclaim all implied warranties, including merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose and non-infringement. We do not warrant that the service will be uninterrupted, timely, error-free, or that every trial will be found, every alert delivered, or every cancellation confirmed.

Nothing here excludes or limits anything that cannot lawfully be excluded — including liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence, for fraud, and your non-excludable rights as a consumer where you live.

Limitation of liability

To the extent permitted by law, we are not liable for indirect, incidental, special or consequential losses, or for loss of profit, revenue, data or goodwill, arising out of your use of TrialCut.

In particular, we are not liable for a charge you were not warned about — whether because a trial was not found, an alert was not delivered, a date was extracted wrongly, a merchant ignored a cancellation, or the service was unavailable. Managing your own subscriptions remains yours.

Where liability cannot be excluded, our total liability to you for all claims in any 12-month period is limited to the greater of the amount you paid us for TrialCut in that period, or US$50.

You agree to indemnify us against claims arising from your misuse of the app, from anything you send through it, or from your breach of these terms.

Ending this agreement

You may stop at any time: cancel the subscription through Apple, disconnect your inbox, and ask us to delete your account (see the Privacy Policy).

We may suspend or end your access if you materially breach these terms, if we are required to by law, or if we discontinue the service. If we discontinue TrialCut, we will give you reasonable notice, a way to export your records, and a pro-rata refund of any period you have paid for and cannot use, arranged through Apple. Sections covering disclaimers, liability and governing law survive the end of this agreement.

Changes to these terms

We may update these terms. For material changes we will tell you in the app or by email before they take effect, and the date at the top will change. Continuing to use TrialCut after that means you accept the new version; if you do not, cancel and stop using the app.

Governing law and disputes

These terms are governed by the laws of the Kingdom of Thailand, and the courts of Thailand have jurisdiction. This does not deprive you of the protection of the mandatory consumer laws of the country where you live, or of the right to bring a claim in your local courts where that right cannot be excluded.

If something has gone wrong, please write to us first. Most things are quicker to fix than to argue about. If any provision of these terms is found unenforceable, the rest continues to apply.
