Terms of Service & End User License Agreement
Last updated: 14 June 2026
These terms govern your use of the Fyles application (“Fyles”, “the App”) provided by [[COMPANY NAME — TODO]] (“we”, “us”). By installing or using the App, you agree to these terms. If you do not agree, do not use the App.
1. License
We grant you a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to install and use the App on devices you own or control, for your personal or internal use, in accordance with these terms and any rules of the platform’s app store. This license does not transfer any ownership of the App to you.
2. How Fyles works
Fyles is a peer-to-peer file-sharing application. Files are transferred directly between devices and are not stored on any server we operate. We do not see, host, or retain your files or contacts. See our Privacy Policy.
3. Your responsibilities
- You are solely responsible for the files you send, request, receive, and open, and for ensuring you have the right to share them.
- You must not use Fyles to transmit unlawful, infringing, malicious, or harmful content, or in violation of any applicable law or third-party rights.
- Because files arrive directly from other people, you are responsible for exercising caution before opening files received from sources you do not trust.
- You are responsible for keeping your device, your backups, and your cryptographic identity secure.
4. Experimental and security notice
Fyles implements peer-to-peer networking and cryptographic authentication directly. While built with care and using modern, published cryptography, peer-to-peer authentication and authorization in distributed systems are inherently complex and may contain defects. The App is provided for general use but should not be relied upon as the sole safeguard for highly sensitive material. Use it with appropriate judgment.
5. No warranty
To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, the App is provided “as is” and “as available”, without warranties of any kind, whether express, implied, or statutory, including but not limited to implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement, reliability, availability, accuracy, security, or that the App will be uninterrupted, error-free, or that files will be delivered, delivered intact, or delivered only to the intended recipient.
6. Limitation of liability
To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, we shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or for any loss of data, files, profits, goodwill, or other intangible losses, arising out of or relating to your use of (or inability to use) the App — including, without limitation, files that fail to transfer, are corrupted, are disclosed to an unintended party, or that cause harm when opened.
Nothing in these terms excludes or limits liability that cannot be excluded or limited under applicable mandatory law (for example, liability for intent or gross negligence, for injury to life, body or health, or under applicable product-liability law). For consumers in the European Union, your statutory rights remain unaffected.
7. Indemnity
You agree to indemnify and hold us harmless from any claims, damages, or expenses arising from your misuse of the App or your violation of these terms or of any law or third-party right, to the extent permitted by applicable law.
8. Changes and termination
We may update the App and these terms from time to time. Continued use after changes take effect constitutes acceptance. We may suspend or discontinue the App, in whole or in part, at any time. You may stop using the App and uninstall it at any time.
9. Governing law
These terms are governed by the laws of [[GOVERNING LAW — e.g. the Federal Republic of Germany — TODO]], without prejudice to mandatory consumer-protection provisions of the country in which you reside.
10. Apple App Store
If you obtained the App from the Apple App Store, the Apple Licensed Application End User License Agreement (LAEULA) additionally applies. To the extent these terms conflict with the LAEULA with respect to your use of the App on Apple devices, the LAEULA governs. You acknowledge that Apple has no obligation to provide maintenance or support for the App, and that Apple is a third-party beneficiary of these terms entitled to enforce them.
