Please read these Terms carefully before using the Services.

By using the Services, users (meaning all persons who use the Services) shall be deemed to have agreed to these Terms.

Article 1 (Application)

These Terms shall apply to all relationships between users and us in connection with the use of the Services.

In connection with the Services, we may establish a Privacy Policy and other rules in addition to these Terms. Where there is an express or implied agreement between us and a user, such rules and agreements shall constitute part of these Terms.

If a minor uses the Services by falsely claiming to have obtained the consent of a legal representative despite not having obtained such consent, misrepresents their age in order to use the Services, or otherwise uses fraudulent means, the relevant user and their legal representative shall lose the right to rescind acts performed through the Services pursuant to Article 21 of the Civil Code of Japan.

If a user who was a minor at the time of agreeing to these Terms continues to use the Services after reaching the age of majority, the user shall be deemed to have ratified their use of the Services during the period in which they were a minor.

Article 4 (Changes to and Suspension of the Services)

We may change, add to, or suspend the Services without prior notice to users. However, in the event of a material change, such as the long-term suspension of all of the Services, we will, to the extent possible, notify users in advance or provide notice through the Services.

In the circumstances described in the preceding paragraph, we may delete all information relating to users that is held by us and will not respond to requests for the return of such information. In such cases, even if a user uses the Services again, the user will not be able to restore the deleted information.

We shall not be liable for any damage incurred by users or third parties as a result of changes to or suspension of the Services.

Article 5 (Advertisements)

The Services may display advertisements provided by third parties, including Google AdMob.

Users agree that advertisements may be displayed in accordance with the data usage policies of external advertising service providers.

Article 6 (Subscriptions and Payments)

If the Services include paid features, the pricing structure and renewal periods shall be governed by the information displayed in the applicable store, in addition to any separate agreement between us and the user.

Procedures relating to purchases, cancellations, refunds, and similar matters shall be governed by the terms and conditions of the applicable platform, including the App Store and Google Play.

As a general rule, we will not refund any fees paid by users under any circumstances. However, where otherwise required by law or specifically provided for in the terms and conditions of the applicable platform, including the App Store or Google Play, the terms and conditions of that platform shall apply.

Article 7 (Handling of Data)

Data entered by users within an application, including notes, is generally stored on the user’s device. However, we shall not be liable if such data is not saved or is deleted.

The handling of personal information shall be governed by our separately established Privacy Policy.

Article 8 (Disclaimers and Outsourcing to Third Parties)

We make no warranties regarding the accuracy, completeness, currency, correctness, appropriateness, morality, safety, applicability, usefulness, availability, or non-infringement of third-party rights of any content provided through the Services. Users shall use the Services at their own responsibility and discretion.

Similarly, we do not guarantee the accuracy, completeness, or usefulness of weather information, note-taking features, or any other information provided by us.

To the extent permitted by law, we may display or distribute advertisements and similar content through the Services without obtaining users’ prior consent. Such advertisements are displayed by the relevant third parties, and we assume no responsibility for the legality, truthfulness, or appropriateness of their content. Users shall therefore use information contained in such advertisements at their own responsibility.

Even where advertising information distributed through the Services infringes upon the rights of a user or a third party, or where a dispute arises as a result of such infringement, we shall not be liable for the infringement or dispute unless it is caused by our willful misconduct or gross negligence.

We do not guarantee that third-party web services accessible through links from the Services are lawful, consistent, secure, accurate, or compliant with public order and morals.

Where a user incurs damage as a result of our breach of these Terms or our tortious conduct due to our negligence, excluding willful misconduct or gross negligence, and we are liable for damages, our liability shall be limited to direct and ordinary damages actually incurred by the user and shall not exceed JPY 10,000. However, where our breach of these Terms is caused by willful misconduct or gross negligence, this limitation of liability shall not apply, and we shall compensate the user for the damages incurred. This paragraph shall apply in all cases where we are liable to a user in connection with these Terms or the Services.

If a dispute arises between a user and a third party as a result of the user’s use of the Services, the user shall resolve the dispute at their own responsibility and expense, and we shall assume no responsibility for the dispute.

We may outsource all or part of the operations relating to the Services to third parties.

If a user violates these Terms, if we determine that there is a risk that the user may violate these Terms, or if we determine that the user’s use of the Services is inappropriate, we may, at our sole discretion, immediately take any measures we deem appropriate without prior notice to or consent from the user. Such measures may include suspending all or part of the Services, terminating or cancelling any agreement between us and the user arising from the Services, prohibiting the user from using the Services, or blocking the user’s access to the Services. We shall assume no responsibility for any damage incurred by the user as a result of such measures.

When using the Services, users represent and warrant that they do not belong to or fall under any organized crime group, member of an organized crime group, company affiliated with an organized crime group, corporate racketeer, person or group claiming to advocate social or political causes for improper purposes, special intelligence-based violent group, or any other anti-social force (hereinafter referred to as “Organized Crime Groups and Other Anti-Social Forces”), and that they are not involved with any Organized Crime Groups and Other Anti-Social Forces. Users further undertake that they will not belong to, fall under, or become involved with any such forces in the future.

If a user violates either of the preceding two paragraphs and we incur any damage as a result, the user shall compensate us for such damage, including indirect damages, lost profits, special damages, and attorneys’ fees.

We shall have no obligation to disclose to users the reasons for any measures taken under Paragraph 1 of this Article.

We may amend these Terms as necessary.

We may amend these Terms by determining the effective date of the amendment and notifying users, through publication within the Services or by other appropriate means, that these Terms will be amended, the contents of the amended Terms, and the effective date of the amendment, where either of the following applies:

(a) The amendment is consistent with the interests of users

In the event of any discrepancy between the Japanese version and a translated version, the Japanese version shall prevail.

Article 15 (Severability)

If any provision of these Terms, or any part thereof, is determined to be invalid or unenforceable under applicable laws or regulations, the remaining provisions and portions of these Terms shall continue to remain in full force and effect. We and users shall endeavor to amend the invalid or unenforceable provision or portion to the extent necessary to make it lawful and enforceable and to preserve, to the greatest extent possible, the intent and legally and economically equivalent effect of such invalid or unenforceable provision or portion.
