Beanify helps you log beans, gear, recipes, brews and sensory feedback and turns them into dial-in recommendations. You use Beanify with Sign in with Apple or with a guest account. You are responsible for protecting access to your device and your Apple Account and for keeping your details accurate and up to date. A guest account can only be used on the device where you created it. If you later sign in with Apple, we move the guest account's data and purchases to your account and delete the guest account.

Recommendations are non-binding guidance. Beans, machines and preparation differ; Beanify does not guarantee any particular taste result. Always follow manufacturer instructions and general safety rules, especially with hot liquids, electrical appliances and pressurised machines.

3. License and permitted use

For the term of this agreement we grant you a personal, revocable, non-exclusive, non-transferable license to use Beanify on the devices linked to your store account for private purposes or your own business purposes.

4. Your content

You keep your rights to the entries and images you store in Beanify. You confirm that you are allowed to use this content. To the extent required for syncing, backing up and providing the app's features, you grant us a simple, worldwide right to process it technically for as long as it is stored.

6. Availability and changes

We strive for reliable operation but do not owe uninterrupted availability. Maintenance, security measures, or disruptions of networks or service providers may temporarily limit Beanify. We may develop the app further as long as the agreed main service is preserved. We will give timely notice of material adverse changes to an ongoing paid service; mandatory rights to terminate or reduce the price remain unaffected.

7. Warranty and liability

The statutory warranty rights for digital products apply. We are liable without limitation for intent and gross negligence, for injury to life, body or health, under the German Product Liability Act and to the extent of any guarantee we have given. For slightly negligent breach of an essential contractual obligation, liability is limited to the damage that was foreseeable and typical for the contract when it was concluded. Otherwise, liability for slight negligence is excluded to the extent permitted by law.

8. Termination and account deletion

You can stop using Beanify at any time and delete your account in Settings. We may suspend or terminate access for serious or repeated violations after a reasonable warning; for intolerable or security-critical violations, immediate action is permitted. Store services already paid for and mandatory consumer rights are handled under the statutory rules.

9. Store-specific terms

If you obtain Beanify through Apple, this agreement is concluded between you and us, not with Apple. Apple is not responsible for Beanify, its support or claims relating to the app. Apple and its subsidiaries are third-party beneficiaries of this agreement and may enforce the provisions relating to Apple. Apple's Standard End User License Agreement applies in addition, unless these terms provide otherwise.

If you obtain Beanify through Google Play, the Google Play terms apply in addition. Where store terms conflict with these terms of use, the mandatory store terms prevail for the respective distribution channel.

10. Final provisions

German law applies, excluding the UN Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods. If you are a consumer, mandatory protective provisions of the country of your habitual residence remain unaffected. Statutory places of jurisdiction apply. We are neither obliged nor willing to participate in dispute resolution proceedings before a consumer arbitration board.

We may change these terms for a valid reason, such as new features, security requirements or changes in the law. We will inform you of material changes in an appropriate way. Continued use is governed by the version validly incorporated at the time.
