Terms of Service — Altimet

Last updated: 19 July 2026

These Terms of Service (“Terms”) govern your use of the Altimet app (Android, package io.altimet.app) and any optional cloud and premium features offered through it.

1. Definitions

In these Terms:

2. Acceptance and Scope

By installing the App, opening it, or signing in, you accept these Terms. If you do not agree, do not install or use the App.

These Terms apply to your use of the App and to any cloud and premium features offered through it. They are supplemented by:

Where these Terms grant you fewer rights than mandatory German / EU consumer-protection law, that mandatory law prevails (Section 12).

3. License Grant

We grant you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to install and use the App on Android devices you own or control, for personal, non-commercial purposes (subject to Section 4(c) for commercial use).

This license is personal to you. You may not:

Reverse-engineering carve-out (Art. 6 Computer Programs Directive 2009/24/EC, as implemented by Section 69e UrhG): nothing in this section restricts your right to decompile or analyse the App where this is indispensable to obtain the information necessary to achieve interoperability of an independently created program with other programs, within the limits and conditions of Section 69e UrhG. We do not restrict you from reading, editing, or exporting your own data via the standard data-export feature in the App.

4. User Obligations

You agree:

  1. Lawful use. Not to use the App in violation of applicable law, including data protection law (you are responsible for any personal data of third parties you may type into your tasks / routines — see our Privacy Policy).
  2. Account security. To keep your sign-in credentials (Google account, or email and password) secure. Cloud Sync is tied to your account; anyone with access to it can read your synced data.
  3. No commercial resale. Not to use the App as a hosted service on behalf of others. Internal use within a one-person business or freelance practice is permitted.
  4. No abuse of the cloud quota. Not to deliberately bypass Premium gating or generate abnormal write loads on the Firestore backend (e.g. by automating thousands of synthetic tasks per minute). We may suspend Cloud Sync for accounts that violate this.
  5. Truthful sign-in information. To provide accurate information when signing in (your real email is required so we can deliver verification messages and respond to data-protection enquiries).

5. Description of the Service

The App is a personal task and routine manager:

The current feature scope corresponds to the App version made available via Google Play at the time you install or update it. We may evolve the feature set in future releases (Section 9, Changes).

6. Premium Features and Purchases

6.1 General

In addition to the free feature set, we offer optional paid Premium features (Section 5). The scope of Premium features and the purchase options available for them (for example an auto-renewing subscription and/or a one-time purchase) may change over time and are shown to you in the App and/or in the Google Play Store before each purchase.

6.2 Purchases Are Processed Through Google Play

Every Premium purchase is processed exclusively through Google Play Billing. Google (Google Ireland Limited or its relevant group company) acts as the merchant of record and is your contracting party for the payment transaction, separate from your contract with us. The prices, billing periods, and terms displayed by Google Play at the time of purchase apply, together with the Google Play Terms of Service and the Google Play Billing Terms.

We do not operate our own checkout within the App; the in-app screen for unlocking Premium features only forwards you to Google Play’s native purchase interface and does not itself collect any payment data.

6.3 Auto-Renewing Subscriptions — Renewal and Cancellation

Where we offer an auto-renewing subscription, it renews automatically at the price then published on Google Play, unless you cancel it beforehand. The exact cut-off before the end of a billing period at which renewal is triggered is governed by Google Play’s own rules. Cancellation is performed entirely in Google Play:

Google Play app → top-right profile → Payments & subscriptions → Subscriptions → Altimet → Cancel subscription.

Cancellation stops further renewals; you keep the Premium features for the remainder of the already-paid billing period.

6.4 Right of Withdrawal (Sections 312g, 355, 356(5) BGB)

For consumers in the EU, the statutory right of withdrawal for distance contracts applies. Under Section 356(5) BGB, this right expires early for digital content (including a paid app feature) once performance has begun with your express consent and your acknowledgement that you thereby lose your right of withdrawal.

The Google Play purchase flow obtains this express consent on our behalf at the moment of purchase. By completing the Play purchase, you confirm your consent that we begin performing immediately (unlocking the Premium feature), and you acknowledge that doing so causes your 14-day right of withdrawal to lapse.

Google’s own refund policy (Section 6.5) remains available independently of the statutory withdrawal right and is the primary path to a refund.

6.5 Refunds

Because Google is the merchant of record for all Premium purchases, all refunds are processed by Google Play, not by us:

Google Play app → Payments & subscriptions → Budget & history → tap the order → Refund.

We do not have the technical ability to issue Play Billing refunds directly. We will, however, support reasonable refund requests with Google where there has been a clear technical failure on our side (for example, cloud sync disabled by us for more than 7 consecutive days).

6.6 One-Time Purchases

Where we offer a Premium feature as a one-time purchase, unless stated otherwise at the time of purchase, the unlock applies for as long as the App remains published on Google Play under the package name io.altimet.app. If we permanently discontinue the App, we will give at least 90 days’ notice via an in-app notice and an update to this page; already-unlocked Premium features remain active during that period.

6.7 Price Changes

For auto-renewing subscriptions, we may change the renewal price. Google Play notifies you in advance and asks you to confirm the new price before any renewal at the new price; if you do not confirm, the subscription is cancelled. One-time purchases are not affected.

7. Technical Requirements and Limits

8. Intellectual Property

The App, including its source code, design, neumorphic theme system, icons (other than third-party icon sets used under their own licences — see the in-app Settings → About → Open Source Licences), and trade dress, is the intellectual property of the Provider and is protected by German and international copyright law.

You retain full ownership of all content you create with the App (your tasks, routines, descriptions, completion history). Cloud Sync does not grant us any licence to your content beyond what is strictly necessary to host and replicate it for you and to make it available on your other devices. We do not use your content to train models, do not display it to other users, and do not analyse its contents.

9. Changes to the App and to These Terms

9.1 Changes to the App

We may update, change, or discontinue features. Where a change materially reduces functionality you have paid for, we will, at our choice, either refund a pro-rata portion of the affected billing period or offer an equivalent feature.

9.2 Changes to These Terms

We may update these Terms when:

Material changes are notified in-app via a one-time dialog before they take effect, with a 30-day notice period during which you can cancel any subscription before the new Terms apply to you. You can always view the current Terms at https://altimet.io/terms. Prior versions are available on request.

10. Disclaimer of Warranties — and EU Consumer Carve-Outs

To the maximum extent permitted by law, the App is provided “as is” and “as available”, without warranties of any kind, express or implied, including merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement.

EU and German consumer-law carve-out: the previous paragraph does not override the statutory conformity rights of consumers under Directive (EU) 2019/770 on digital content / digital services, as transposed into German law in Sections 327 ff. BGB. In particular:

We do not exclude or limit those statutory rights.

11. Limitation of Liability

11.1 Cap

To the extent permitted by law, our liability is limited as follows.

We are liable without limitation for:

  1. Intent and gross negligence on our part.
  2. Injury to life, body, or health caused by us, our employees, or our agents (Section 309 No. 7(a) BGB).
  3. Liability under the Product Liability Act (Produkthaftungsgesetz) and any other mandatory statutory liability that cannot be excluded.
  4. Breach of essential contractual duties (Kardinalpflichten) — meaning duties whose performance enables proper execution of the contract in the first place and on whose performance the User regularly relies. In this case our liability is limited to typical, foreseeable damages at the time of contract formation.

For all other cases, in particular for slight negligence in respect of non-essential duties, our liability is excluded.

11.2 Backups

Cloud Sync is not a backup service. It is a real-time mirror. A deletion on one device propagates to your other devices and to Firestore. Use Settings → Data → Export regularly if you require a backup.

We are not liable for data loss resulting from your own actions, device failure, account-credential loss, or third-party service outages outside our control, except to the extent Section 11.1 applies.

12. Mandatory Consumer Law

These Terms are not intended to limit any mandatory consumer rights you may have under the law of your country of habitual residence within the EU. Where any provision of these Terms is more restrictive than that mandatory law, the mandatory law prevails to the extent of the conflict, and the remainder of the Terms remains in force.

13. Termination

13.1 Termination by You

You may terminate at any time by uninstalling the App and, where applicable, cancelling any active subscription via Google Play (Section 6.3). To delete the cloud copy of your data, follow the procedure in our Privacy Policy, Section 8.1 (“Account deletion”), or use the in-app Settings → Account → Delete account feature; alternatively, use the web form at https://altimet.io/account-deletion.

13.2 Termination by Us

We may suspend or terminate your access to Cloud Sync (but not your right to use the local App) if you materially breach these Terms, in particular Section 4(a), (c), (d). For non-material breaches, we will first ask you to cure the issue within a reasonable period (at least 14 days) where this is possible.

In the case of termination, the refund / pro-rata rules in Section 9.1 apply analogously to any prepaid billing period.

15. Online Dispute Resolution (EU Reg. 524/2013) and Consumer Arbitration (VSBG)

The European Commission provides a platform for online dispute resolution (ODR) accessible at:

https://ec.europa.eu/consumers/odr

Our email address for any contact in connection with the ODR platform is support@altimet.io.

We are not obliged to participate, and do not voluntarily participate, in dispute-resolution proceedings before a consumer arbitration board (Verbraucherschlichtungsstelle) within the meaning of the Verbraucherstreitbeilegungsgesetz (VSBG). Any disputes are addressed first by direct contact with us, and otherwise before the ordinary courts.

16. Governing Law and Jurisdiction

These Terms are governed by the law of the Federal Republic of Germany, excluding the UN Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods (CISG).

Where you are a consumer with habitual residence in another EU member state, this choice of law does not deprive you of the protection of mandatory provisions of the law of that member state (Art. 6(2) Rome I Regulation).

For non-consumers (merchants, legal persons, public-law special funds), the place of jurisdiction is Jena, Germany. For consumers, the statutory jurisdiction rules apply.

17. Severability

If any provision of these Terms is or becomes invalid or unenforceable, the validity of the remaining provisions is not affected. The invalid or unenforceable provision is to be replaced by a valid provision that comes closest to the economic purpose of the original provision.

These Terms of Service were written in our own words for Altimet and are closely aligned in substance with our Privacy Policy and with the German-language version of these Terms.
