Terms of Service

1. Who we are

Text2Store is a desktop application developed and owned by Aloha Gems LLC ("Aloha Gems", "we", "us", or "our"). These Terms of Service, together with our Privacy Policy and Refund Policy, form the agreement (the "Terms") between you and Aloha Gems governing the Text2Store app (the "App") and the website at text2store.com (the "Site").

2. Your agreement

By downloading, installing, purchasing, or using the App or Site, you confirm that you accept these Terms and that you are at least 18 years old (or the age of legal majority where you live) and able to enter into a binding contract. If you are using Text2Store on behalf of an organization, you represent that you are authorized to accept these Terms for that organization. If you do not agree, do not use Text2Store.

3. License to use the app

Subject to these Terms and payment of any applicable fees, Aloha Gems grants you a limited, personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to install and use the App on the number of computers permitted by your license tier, for your own personal or internal business purposes.

You may not: (a) resell, rent, sublicense, or redistribute the App; (b) reverse-engineer, decompile, or attempt to derive source code except to the extent this restriction is prohibited by law or permitted by an open-source license covering a specific component; (c) remove or alter any proprietary notices; (d) circumvent license-key or activation mechanisms; or (e) use the App to build a competing product.

4. Authorized use only

Text2Store is a tool for backing up and reviewing your own data or data you are legally authorized to access. It requires physical possession of the device and its passcode or an unlocked, trusted computer. You agree to use Text2Store only with devices and backups that you own or have explicit permission to access.

You may not use Text2Store to access, monitor, or surveil another person's device or communications without their knowledge and lawful authority. You are solely responsible for ensuring that your use complies with all applicable laws, including privacy, wiretapping, and data-protection laws in your jurisdiction. Misuse of the App is a breach of these Terms and may be unlawful.

5. License keys & activation

Paid features are unlocked with a license key delivered to you after purchase. To activate, the App contacts our licensing service with your license key and a name identifying the computer (so you can manage your seats). This does not transmit your messages or backup content. You are responsible for keeping your license key confidential. A license may be activated on a limited number of computers as stated for your tier; you can deactivate a computer to free a seat.

6. Purchases, pricing & the reseller

Prices are listed on our Pricing page in US dollars and may change over time; the price shown at checkout is the price that applies to your order. Applicable sales tax or VAT is added at checkout based on your location. Text2Store Pro is a one-time purchase and is not a subscription. We do not store your full payment-card details; those are handled by Paddle.

7. Refunds

We offer a 30-day money-back guarantee on Text2Store Pro. Refund requests and processing are described in, and governed by, our Refund Policy, and are handled through Paddle as Merchant of Record.

8. Intellectual property

The App, the Site, and all related content, trademarks, logos, and design (excluding third-party and open-source components) are owned by Aloha Gems LLC and are protected by intellectual-property laws. These Terms grant you a license to use the App; they do not transfer any ownership to you. "Text2Store" and the Text2Store logo are marks of Aloha Gems LLC.

9. Third-party & open-source components

Text2Store includes third-party and open-source software, each governed by its own license. Where a component is licensed under a copyleft license (such as the GPL), your rights in that component are provided under that license, and the corresponding source code is made available as required. Nothing in these Terms limits your rights under, or overrides, any applicable open-source license.

10. Optional AI features

Text2Store may offer optional AI-assisted summaries. By default, summaries are generated on your own computer and your content is not sent anywhere. If you choose to connect your own third-party AI provider ("bring your own AI"), then, only with your per-action confirmation, the selected conversation content is sent to that provider so it can generate a summary. That provider processes your content under its own terms and privacy policy, and Aloha Gems is not responsible for the provider's handling of your data. AI summaries are assistive, may be inaccurate, and are never part of a verified export.

11. Disclaimer of warranties

The App and Site are provided "as is" and "as available," without warranties of any kind, whether express, implied, or statutory, including any implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement. We do not warrant that the App will be error-free or uninterrupted, that it will capture or preserve every message or attachment, or that it will meet your requirements.

Text2Store is a tool, not a backup service or a guarantee. You are responsible for verifying that a backup or export is complete and for keeping your own additional copies of any data that matters to you. Text2Store does not provide legal advice; a "verified export" is a feature that documents an export's contents and does not guarantee admissibility or acceptance by any court, agency, or third party.

12. Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, Aloha Gems LLC and its owners and contributors will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or for any loss of data, profits, revenue, or goodwill, arising out of or relating to your use of (or inability to use) the App or Site. Our total aggregate liability for any claim relating to Text2Store will not exceed the amount you paid to us (or to our reseller for your order) in the 12 months before the event giving rise to the claim. Some jurisdictions do not allow certain limitations, so parts of this section may not apply to you.

13. Indemnification

You agree to indemnify and hold harmless Aloha Gems LLC from any claims, losses, liabilities, and expenses (including reasonable legal fees) arising from your misuse of Text2Store or your violation of these Terms or of any law or third-party right — including any use of Text2Store to access data you were not authorized to access.

14. Termination

These Terms apply for as long as you use Text2Store. We may suspend or terminate your license if you materially breach these Terms. On termination, you must stop using the App and delete it. Sections that by their nature should survive termination (including intellectual property, disclaimers, limitation of liability, and indemnification) will survive. Because Text2Store stores data locally on your computer, terminating your license does not delete the archives you have already created.

15. Changes to these terms

We may update these Terms from time to time. When we do, we will revise the "Last updated" date above and post the new version here. Material changes take effect when posted; your continued use of Text2Store after that constitutes acceptance of the updated Terms.

16. Governing law

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Texas, United States, without regard to its conflict-of-laws rules, and you agree to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts located in Texas, except where applicable consumer-protection law gives you the right to bring proceedings in your own jurisdiction.
