Terms and Conditions

These Terms and Conditions are the rules for using QuickCards. They are a legal agreement between you and MadePure Media Corp, so please read them. We tried to write them in plain language.

1. Agreement to these Terms

Welcome to QuickCards. These Terms and Conditions (“Terms”) form an agreement between you and MadePure Media Corp, a company based in British Columbia, Canada (“MadePure Media,” “we,” “us”), for the QuickCards app for iPhone, iPad and Mac, and the related websites and services (the “Service”).

By creating an account, tapping to agree, or using the Service, you accept these Terms and our Privacy Policy, which is part of them. If you do not agree, do not use the Service. If you use QuickCards on behalf of a school or organization, you confirm you may bind it to these Terms.

2. Who can use QuickCards

• You must be at least 13 years old. If you live where the minimum age for consenting to online services is higher (for example 14, 15 or 16 in parts of the European Union), you must be at least that age, or have the consent of a parent or guardian, who agrees to these Terms for you.
• You must be able to form a binding contract where you live, and you must not be barred from using the Service by any law.
• You may have one account. Do not create an account for someone else, or share your account.
• You must follow the laws that apply to you and the rules of your school when you use QuickCards.
• QuickCards is available for iPhone, iPad and Mac. One account works on all of them, and these Terms apply the same way on each. Some features differ by device (for example, ads are not shown on Mac).

3. Your account

You can sign up with an email and password or with Sign in with Apple. Give accurate information and keep it up to date. You are responsible for what happens under your account, and for keeping your password and devices secure. Tell us promptly at contact@madepuremedia.org if you think someone else has accessed your account. Your @username and friend code are handed out first come, first served, and we may change or reclaim a name that is offensive, misleading or that impersonates someone.

4. What QuickCards is, and is not

QuickCards helps you make flashcards and tests from your study material, keep track of classes and due dates, and study with friends. It is a study aid only. It is not professional, academic, legal, medical or financial advice, and it does not guarantee grades, exam results or any other outcome. You are responsible for your own studying and for meeting your school’s deadlines. Reminders and calendar entries are convenience tools, and you should check important dates with your school.

QuickCards is independent. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by or sponsored by any school, college, university, instructor or textbook publisher mentioned in the app. School and course names appear only so that you and other students can identify them.

5. Your content

“Your Content” means everything you put into the Service: decks, cards, notes, test material, scans, imported files, calendar entries, profile details, ratings, reports and messages.

• You own it. We do not claim ownership of Your Content.
• License to us. You give us a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free license to host, store, copy, process, transmit and display Your Content, and to have it processed by our service providers (including AI providers, see Section 7), only as needed to run, secure, support and improve the Service and to provide the features you use. This lasts as long as Your Content is in the Service, plus the time it takes to delete it, and it continues for copies that other students have lawfully saved or received.
• Public decks. If you publish a deck, you also give other QuickCards users a non-exclusive license to view it, rate it, report it, and save a copy to their own library for their personal study. You can unpublish or delete a deck later, but copies already saved by others stay in their libraries.
• Your promises. You promise that you own Your Content or have every right and permission needed to use it and share it as you do, that it does not infringe anyone’s rights, and that it follows these Terms. Textbooks, lecture slides, exams and course packs are often protected by copyright or by your school’s rules. Do not scan, upload or publish material unless you are allowed to.
• Backups. We try to keep Your Content safe, but you are responsible for keeping copies of anything important. PDFs you make are stored on your device.

6. Community rules and public decks

QuickCards has social features: public decks, ratings, friend requests and shared decks. Everyone must keep them safe and respectful. You must not post, send or publish anything that:

• is illegal, threatening, harassing, hateful, discriminatory, violent, sexually explicit, or that exploits or endangers children;
• bullies, targets or exposes a person, or shares personal information about someone without permission (including contact details, grades or photos of others);
• is spam, a scam, advertising we have not agreed to, or that tries to steal sign-in details;
• contains malware or tries to damage or overload the Service;
• is false or misleading in a way that could hurt others, or impersonates a person, school or organization;
• infringes copyright, trademark, privacy or other rights, or breaches your school’s academic integrity rules.

Reporting and blocking. You can report any public deck from the deck page, and you can block another user from your profile settings. Decks that are reported by several students are hidden until we review them. To report something we should look at, or to ask us to remove content about you (for example an instructor’s name in a public deck), email contact@madepuremedia.org.

Our response. We do not pre-screen public content, but we act on reports. We may remove or hide content, limit features, suspend or end accounts, and report serious violations to the authorities, at our discretion and without notice. We have no tolerance for objectionable content or abusive behavior, and repeat or serious violations lead to termination.

7. AI features

Some features use artificial intelligence provided by third parties to turn text into cards and tests, to read syllabuses and schedules, and to organize calendar items. When you use them, the relevant text is sent to the AI provider through our servers as described in our Privacy Policy. You agree to this processing when you use those features.

• It can be wrong. AI output can be inaccurate, incomplete, out of date or biased. Always review cards, tests, dates and anything else it produces. We do not guarantee that it is correct or suitable for your course, and you use it at your own risk.
• Do not misuse it. Do not try to make it produce harmful or illegal content, to bypass limits, or to extract our prompts or settings.
• Sensitive material. Do not submit sensitive information about other people, such as medical, financial or government identity details.
• Output. Subject to these Terms and the law, you may use output generated for you for your own studying. Similar output may be generated for other users.

8. QuickCards Pro and payments

QuickCards is free to download and use with limits. QuickCards Pro is an optional auto-renewing subscription that raises limits and removes banner ads. The current features and limits are described in the app and on our website, and may change.

• Price and billing. The price and billing period are shown in the App Store before you subscribe, may vary by country and may change. Payment is charged to your Apple ID account at confirmation of purchase. Billing and payment are handled entirely by Apple, not by us. If a free trial or introductory offer is available, its length and terms are shown before you subscribe, and the subscription converts to a paid one when the offer ends unless you cancel first.
• Auto-renewal. Your subscription renews automatically for the same period unless you cancel at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Your Apple ID account is charged for renewal within 24 hours before the end of the current period at the then-current price. If the price changes, Apple notifies you and, where required, asks for your consent.
• Managing and canceling. On iPhone or iPad, open Settings, tap your name, then Subscriptions, and choose QuickCards Pro. On Mac, open the App Store app, click your name, then Account Settings, and find Subscriptions. A Pro subscription works on every device where you sign in to your QuickCards account. Canceling stops future renewals, and you keep Pro until the end of the period you paid for. Deleting the app or your QuickCards account does not cancel your subscription.
• Refunds. Apple processes refunds for App Store purchases. Request one through Apple’s “Report a Problem” page or Apple Support. Except where the law requires otherwise, we do not refund a partly used period.
• Restoring. Use Restore in the app to reactivate a subscription you already paid for, for example on a new device. A subscription is tied to one QuickCards account at a time and cannot be shared, transferred or resold.
• When Pro ends. If your subscription ends or is refunded, your account returns to free limits and banner ads return. Your content is kept, but items above the free limits (for example decks beyond the free number) may become locked until you subscribe again or reduce your content.
• Consumers in the EU and UK. By starting a digital subscription you ask for it to begin immediately and acknowledge that you may lose any right of withdrawal once it has started, as permitted by law and Apple’s terms.

9. Usage limits and fair use

Features have limits that differ between free and Pro accounts, such as the number of decks, cards per deck, image scans per month, PDF pages, tests, test questions and syllabus imports. Some limits reset monthly. AI features also have a monthly usage allowance that applies to every account, including Pro. If an account uses an unusually large amount, or uses the Service in a way that is automated, shared, resold or that puts the Service at risk, we may slow, pause or restrict those features until the allowance resets, or end the account. We may change limits and features over time.

10. Ads

Free accounts on iPhone and iPad show ads from third-party ad networks. The Mac app does not show ads. We are not responsible for ads or for the products, services and websites they promote, and dealing with an advertiser is between you and them. Ad choices are described in our Privacy Policy. Pro removes banner ads.

11. Acceptable use

You agree not to:

• break the law, or help someone else to;
• use bots, scrapers, scripts or other automated means to access the Service, collect public decks or user information, or create accounts;
• copy, modify, decompile, reverse engineer or try to extract the source code of the app, except where the law gives you that right despite this restriction;
• get around or tamper with usage limits, subscription checks, security features or the app’s protections, or use a jailbroken or tampered device to do so;
• probe, scan or test the vulnerability of our systems, or interfere with or overload them;
• resell, rent, sublicense or commercially exploit the Service or any content in it, except Your Content;
• use the Service to cheat, to breach your school’s academic rules, or to help others to do so;
• misrepresent your age, identity or affiliation, or use another person’s account;
• harvest or use other users’ information for anything other than the Service’s intended social features.

12. Copyright and takedown notices

We respect intellectual property rights and expect you to do the same. If you believe content in QuickCards infringes your copyright, email a notice to contact@madepuremedia.org with: your name and contact details; a description of the work and where it appears (such as the public deck name or link); a statement that you believe in good faith that the use is not authorized by the owner, its agent or the law; a statement, made accurately, that you are the owner or authorized to act for the owner; and your signature. We may remove or disable access to the content, notify the person who posted it, and give them the chance to respond. If you believe your content was removed by mistake, you may send us a counter-notice with the same details and an explanation. We may end accounts of people who repeatedly infringe.

13. Our rights

QuickCards, including the app, design, text, graphics, logos, sounds, software and the QuickCards and MadePure Media names, is owned by MadePure Media or its licensors and protected by intellectual property laws. We grant you a limited, personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to use the app on Apple devices you own or control (iPhone, iPad and Mac), for your own non-commercial study, under these Terms. We reserve all other rights. If you send us feedback or ideas, you agree we may use them freely without paying or crediting you.

14. Third-party services

The Service depends on third-party services such as Apple (sign-in, payments, notifications, App Store), Google (cloud hosting, sign-in, notifications, ads) and AI providers. Their own terms may apply to the parts of the Service built on them. We are not responsible for their acts, outages or policies. Links to other websites are provided for convenience and we do not control them.

15. Updates, availability and changes

We may update, add, change or remove features, limits and content, including free features, and we may require you to update the app to a minimum version to keep using it. We may take the Service offline for maintenance. We do not promise the Service will always be available, uninterrupted, secure or error-free, or that your content will never be lost, and we may discontinue the Service on reasonable notice where practicable.

16. Suspension and termination

You may stop using QuickCards at any time and delete your account in the app. We may suspend or end your access or remove content, with or without notice, if we reasonably believe you broke these Terms or the law, are a risk to others or the Service, have not paid, or if we stop offering the Service. When your account ends, your right to use the Service stops, and we handle your data as described in the Privacy Policy. Sections that by their nature should continue to apply (including those on content licenses already given to others, disclaimers, liability, release, indemnity, governing law and general terms) survive termination.

17. Disclaimers

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, THE SERVICE, ALL CONTENT AND ALL AI OUTPUT ARE PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE,” WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, WHETHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, ACCURACY, NON-INFRINGEMENT, AND THAT THE SERVICE WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, SECURE OR ERROR-FREE. WE DO NOT PROMISE ANY ACADEMIC RESULT, AND WE ARE NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR CONTENT POSTED BY USERS. Some places do not allow some exclusions, so parts of this section may not apply to you.

18. Limitation of liability

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, MADEPURE MEDIA AND ITS DIRECTORS, OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES, CONTRACTORS, LICENSORS AND SERVICE PROVIDERS WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR FOR ANY LOSS OF PROFITS, REVENUE, DATA, STUDY MATERIAL, GRADES, OPPORTUNITIES OR GOODWILL, ARISING FROM OR RELATED TO THE SERVICE OR THESE TERMS, EVEN IF WE WERE TOLD THEY MIGHT HAPPEN. OUR TOTAL LIABILITY FOR ALL CLAIMS RELATED TO THE SERVICE WILL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF (A) THE AMOUNT YOU PAID US THROUGH THE APP STORE FOR THE SERVICE IN THE 12 MONTHS BEFORE THE CLAIM AND (B) CAD $50.

Nothing in these Terms limits liability that cannot be limited by law, such as liability for fraud, for death or personal injury caused by negligence, or any consumer right you have that cannot be waived.

19. Release

To the fullest extent permitted by law, you release MadePure Media and the people and companies listed in Section 18 from claims, demands and damages, known or unknown, that arise out of or relate to disputes between you and other users, to content posted by others, or to your use of the Service. If you are a California resident, you waive California Civil Code Section 1542, which says: “A general release does not extend to claims that the creditor or releasing party does not know or suspect to exist in his or her favor at the time of executing the release and that, if known by him or her, would have materially affected his or her settlement with the debtor or released party.”

20. Indemnity

To the extent permitted by law, you agree to defend, indemnify and hold harmless MadePure Media and its directors, officers, employees and service providers from any claim, loss, cost or expense (including reasonable legal fees) that arises from Your Content, your use of the Service, your breach of these Terms, or your violation of any law or someone else’s rights.

21. Governing law and disputes

• Governing law. These Terms and any dispute about the Service are governed by the laws of the Province of British Columbia and the federal laws of Canada that apply there, without regard to conflict of laws rules.
• Talk to us first. If you have a problem, email contact@madepuremedia.org with a description and what you would like us to do. We will try in good faith to resolve it informally, and you agree to give us at least 60 days from your written notice before starting any formal proceeding.
• Courts. To the extent the law allows, any claim that is not resolved informally must be brought only in the courts of British Columbia, Canada, and you and we consent to their jurisdiction.
• No class actions. To the fullest extent permitted by law, you agree to bring claims only on your own behalf and not as a plaintiff or class member in any class, collective, consolidated or representative action, and you waive any right to a jury trial.
• Waiver of claims. To the fullest extent permitted by law, you agree not to start or take part in any lawsuit, claim or proceeding against MadePure Media relating to the Service, other than a claim that cannot lawfully be waived and that you bring after following the informal steps above.
• Your local rights stay. If you are a consumer, this section does not take away any mandatory right you have under the consumer protection law of the place where you live, including the right to bring a claim in the courts of your home country or province where the law gives you that right. If part of this section cannot be enforced where you live, the rest still applies.

22. Apple App Store terms

This section applies because you get QuickCards through the Apple App Store, on iPhone, iPad or Mac (the Mac App Store). It reflects terms Apple requires.

• These Terms are between you and MadePure Media only, not Apple. MadePure Media, not Apple, is solely responsible for QuickCards and its content.
• Your license is limited to using QuickCards on Apple-branded products (such as an iPhone, iPad or Mac) that you own or control, as allowed by the Usage Rules in Apple’s Media Services Terms and Conditions.
• MadePure Media, not Apple, is responsible for maintenance and support. Apple has no obligation to provide any.
• If QuickCards fails to meet an applicable warranty, you may tell Apple and Apple will refund any purchase price for the app. To the maximum extent permitted by law, Apple has no other warranty obligation for QuickCards.
• MadePure Media, not Apple, is responsible for any claims about QuickCards or your use of it, including product liability claims, claims that it fails to meet legal or regulatory requirements, and consumer protection or privacy claims.
• If a third party claims QuickCards infringes its intellectual property rights, MadePure Media, not Apple, is responsible for investigating, defending, settling and discharging the claim.
• You represent that you are not located in a country subject to a U.S. government embargo or designated as a “terrorist supporting” country, and that you are not on any U.S. government list of prohibited or restricted parties.
• You must follow any applicable third-party terms when using QuickCards, such as your wireless data agreement.
• Apple and its subsidiaries are third-party beneficiaries of these Terms, and once you accept them, Apple has the right to enforce them against you.

Questions, complaints or claims about QuickCards can be sent to us at the address in Section 25.

23. Rights you have where you live

Some places give consumers rights that cannot be waived by contract. Nothing in these Terms removes them. For example: in the European Union, the United Kingdom and some other countries, mandatory consumer law applies to you, including the legal guarantees for digital content; in Australia, the Australian Consumer Law guarantees apply and cannot be excluded; in Quebec, you can bring claims in Quebec courts and you may ask for these Terms in French, and where a French version exists it is available on our website; in Brazil, the Consumer Defense Code applies. If any part of these Terms is inconsistent with a mandatory right where you live, that right prevails to the extent of the inconsistency.

24. General terms

• Changes to these Terms. We may update these Terms. If a change is material we will update the date above and, where required, tell you in the app or by email. If you keep using the Service after a change takes effect, you accept the updated Terms. If you do not agree, stop using the Service and delete your account.
• Entire agreement. These Terms and the Privacy Policy are the entire agreement between you and us about the Service and replace earlier agreements about it. Apple’s own terms still apply to your use of Apple services.
• Language. We provide translations for convenience. If a translation and the English version differ, the English version controls, except where the law of your country requires otherwise.
• Severability. If a provision cannot be enforced, it is limited to the minimum extent needed, and the rest stay in force.
• No waiver. If we do not enforce a provision right away, we do not give up the right to do so later.
• Assignment. You may not transfer these Terms or your account. We may transfer them in connection with a merger, acquisition or sale of assets.
• Events beyond our control. We are not liable for delays or failures caused by events beyond our reasonable control, including outages of cloud, network, AI or app store providers, power or internet failures, natural disasters, war, or government action.
• Notices. We may notify you through the app, by email at the address on your account, or by posting on our website. You may notify us by email at the address in Section 25.
• Export and sanctions. You may not use the Service where it is prohibited by export control or sanctions laws.
