If the App allows you to create, upload, or share content (such as Creative Look recipes, photos, or recipe cards), you retain ownership of your content.

6. Intellectual Property
The App and all its content, features, and functionality — including but not limited to text, graphics, logos, icons, images, and software — are owned by us or our licensors and are protected by applicable intellectual property laws.
"AlphaLuma" and associated logos and marks are our trademarks. You may not use them without our prior written permission.
7. In-App Purchases and Subscriptions
The App offers optional paid features ("AlphaLuma Pro") as auto-renewing subscriptions and, where offered, a one-time purchase. Purchases are made through the store you downloaded the App from and are processed by that store, not by us:
- iOS: processed by Apple through the App Store and subject to Apple's Media Services Terms and Conditions.
- Android: processed by Google through Google Play and subject to the Google Play Terms of Service.
The price, billing period, and any free-trial length are shown in the App and in the store's purchase dialog before you confirm. Prices are in your local currency and may include applicable taxes.
On iOS (App Store):
- Payment is charged to your Apple ID account upon confirmation of purchase
- Subscriptions automatically renew unless auto-renew is turned off at least 24 hours before the end of the current period; your account is charged for renewal within 24 hours before the end of the current period
- To cancel, open the iOS Settings app → your name → Subscriptions
On Android (Google Play):
- Payment is charged to the payment method of your Google account through Google Play upon confirmation of purchase
- Subscriptions automatically renew at the end of each billing period at the then-current price until you cancel
- To cancel, open the Google Play Store app → tap your profile icon → Payments & subscriptions → Subscriptions → AlphaLuma → Cancel subscription, or visit play.google.com/store/account/subscriptions. Uninstalling the App or deleting your AlphaLuma account does not cancel a subscription
- If you cancel, you keep Pro access until the end of the period you have already paid for, and you will not be charged again
Free trials: If a subscription includes a free trial, you will be charged the subscription price when the trial ends unless you cancel before the trial ends. Trial eligibility is determined by the store (for example, a trial may be offered only once per account).
Refunds: Refunds are handled under the refund policy of the store you purchased from (Apple or Google Play), except as required by applicable law. See our Refund Policy.
8. Disclaimer of Warranties
THE APP IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE" WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT.
We do not warrant that:
- The App will be uninterrupted, error-free, or free of viruses or other harmful components
- Any defects or errors in the App will be corrected
- The results obtained from use of the App will be accurate or reliable
9. 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 — INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF DATA, LOSS OF PROFITS, OR LOSS OF GOODWILL — ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH YOUR USE OF THE APP.
Our total liability to you for any claims arising from these Terms or your use of the App shall not exceed the amount you paid us in the twelve (12) months preceding the claim.

Your use of such third-party services is subject to their respective terms and privacy policies. We are not responsible for the practices of any third-party services.
12. Changes to These Terms
We reserve the right to modify these Terms at any time. When we make material changes, we will notify you through the App or by other means prior to the changes becoming effective. Your continued use of the App after such notice constitutes your acceptance of the revised Terms.
13. Termination
We may suspend or terminate your access to the App at any time, with or without cause or notice. Upon termination, all licenses granted to you under these Terms will immediately cease.
14. Governing Law
These Terms shall be governed by and construed in accordance with applicable laws. Any disputes arising from these Terms shall be resolved by mutual negotiation. If negotiation fails, disputes shall be submitted to the court with jurisdiction in the defendant's domicile.
