Terms of Use
Effective May 15, 2026 · Version 1.0
Jump to section
Early-access build
App Preview Kit is in early access. The legal entity name, registered address, and governing jurisdiction will be published here before general availability. References to "Delaware" below are placeholders pending incorporation — the final governing law clause will be updated with 30 days’ advance notice.
The short version
- What you can do: Use the service to generate and export App Store and Google Play screenshots for apps you have the right to promote.
- What you own: Your uploaded content and the outputs you export stay yours. We take no ownership of your work.
- How billing works: Subscriptions are billed through our payment processor (Merchant of Record), who handles taxes. Cancel anytime — access continues through your paid period.
- How disputes work: We ask for 30 days to resolve informally first. If that fails, binding arbitration under AAA rules in Delaware (or small-claims court for qualifying amounts).
Introduction
These Terms of Use govern your access to and use of App Preview Kit and any related services, APIs, or command-line tools (collectively, the "Service"). By creating an account or otherwise using the Service, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use the Service.
References to "we," "us," or "our" mean the operator of App Preview Kit. References to "you" mean the person or entity accepting these Terms.
The Service is in early access. Features, pricing, and policies may change before general availability. We will give you advance notice of material changes as described in Section 16.
Account and eligibility
You must be at least 16 years old to create an account. If you are using the Service on behalf of a company or other legal entity, you represent that you have authority to bind that entity to these Terms.
You are responsible for maintaining the security of your account credentials and for all activity under your account. Notify us immediately at legal@apppreviewkit.com if you suspect unauthorized access.
One person or entity may not maintain more than one free account. Creating multiple accounts to circumvent usage limits or receive additional free credits is prohibited.
Acceptable use
You agree not to use the Service to:
- Upload screenshots or product content you do not have the right to use or publish.
- Generate listings for apps that impersonate another developer, brand, or person.
- Scrape, crawl, or systematically extract data from the Service beyond normal product use.
- Resell or sublicense credits, renders, or API access without our written permission.
- Attempt to reverse-engineer, decompile, or extract the source code of the Service.
- Send automated requests at a rate that materially degrades the Service for other users.
- Violate any applicable law, including but not limited to intellectual property, export control, and privacy laws.
We reserve the right to suspend or terminate accounts that violate these restrictions, with or without prior notice depending on severity.
Your content
You retain all ownership rights in the screenshots, product URLs, copy, and other content you upload or create using the Service (collectively, "Your Content").
By uploading Your Content, you grant us a limited, non-exclusive, royalty-free license to store, process, render, and deliver it solely to provide the Service to you. This license terminates when you delete the content or your account.
We do not claim any ownership over Your Content. We do not use Your Content to train AI models (see Section 5) or share it with third parties beyond what is described in our Privacy Policy.
You represent and warrant that Your Content does not infringe any third-party intellectual property rights, does not contain malware or malicious code, and complies with all applicable laws.
AI-generated outputs
You own the screenshot sets, captions, and listing copy that the Service produces for you. We assign any rights we may hold in those outputs to you.
AI-generated captions are suggestions, not legal advice. You are solely responsible for reviewing all outputs before submitting them to the App Store or Google Play. The Service’s compliance engine flags potential issues against Apple App Store Review Guidelines and Google Play policies, but this is an automated check — it is not a guarantee of approval and does not constitute a legal opinion.
AI model outputs may occasionally be inaccurate, incomplete, or inappropriate. We do not warrant the accuracy, completeness, or fitness of any AI-generated content for your specific use case.
We do not use your uploaded content or generated outputs to train any AI model. Zero-data-retention is enforced on all calls to third-party AI providers via our gateway (see our Privacy Policy, Section 4).
Subscriptions and billing
Paid plans are sold through our payment processor, who acts as the Merchant of Record. They collect payment, issue invoices, and handle applicable taxes, VAT, and GST on our behalf. You will see their name on your invoice and bank statement.
Subscription fees are billed in advance on the first day of each billing period (monthly or annual, as selected). Prices are displayed in USD exclusive of tax; local taxes are calculated at checkout.
If you believe a charge is incorrect, contact legal@apppreviewkit.com within 30 days. We will investigate and issue a credit or refund at our discretion if the charge was in error. For disputes within your first 14 days of a paid subscription, we will issue a pro-rata refund upon request, no questions asked.
Credits purchased separately (render credits, export credits) are non-refundable once used. Unused credits expire 12 months after purchase.
Cancellation
You may cancel your subscription at any time via the customer portal (accessible from your account settings). Cancellation takes effect at the end of your current billing period — you retain full access until then. We do not issue partial refunds for unused time in a billing period except as described in Section 6.
On cancellation, your account reverts to the free tier. Your projects and content are retained for 90 days, after which they are deleted per our retention policy. You may export your data at any time before deletion.
Intellectual property
The App Preview Kit name, logo, and product UI are our intellectual property. You may not use our brand marks without our written permission.
If you upload screenshots of a third-party app, you are responsible for ensuring you have the rights to upload and generate promotional materials for that app. We will respond to valid DMCA takedown notices. To submit a DMCA notice, email dmca@apppreviewkit.com with:
- Identification of the copyrighted work you claim is being infringed.
- Identification of the infringing material and its location in our Service.
- Your contact information.
- A statement of good-faith belief and accuracy, under penalty of perjury.
- Your physical or electronic signature.
Service availability
We aim to keep the Service available 24/7, but we do not guarantee uninterrupted access. The free tier has no service-level agreement. Paid tiers include best-effort uptime with planned maintenance announced in advance where possible.
We may modify, suspend, or discontinue features of the Service with reasonable notice. If we permanently discontinue the Service, we will give you at least 30 days to export your data.
Termination
We may suspend or terminate your access to the Service, with or without notice, if:
- You violate these Terms or our Acceptable Use policy.
- We receive a valid law enforcement or legal request requiring termination.
- Continued access poses a security risk to the Service or other users.
- You fail to pay outstanding fees after a 7-day cure period.
You may terminate your account at any time via account settings. Upon termination, your license to use the Service ends immediately. Sections 4, 5, 11, 12, 13, 14, and 15 survive termination.
Disclaimer of warranties
The service is provided "as is" and "as available" without warranties of any kind, express or implied, including but not limited to warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement, or that the service will be uninterrupted, error-free, or free of harmful components.
We do not warrant that AI-generated captions, compliance flags, or export outputs will result in App Store or Google Play approval. Store approval decisions rest solely with Apple and Google.
Limitation of liability
To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, our total liability to you for any claims arising from or related to these Terms or the Service is limited to the greater of:
- The fees you paid us in the 12 months immediately preceding the claim, or
- USD 100, if you have not paid us any fees.
In no event will we be liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, including loss of profits, data, revenue, business, or goodwill, even if we have been advised of the possibility of such damages.
Some jurisdictions do not allow exclusion of implied warranties or limitation of liability for incidental or consequential damages. In those jurisdictions, our liability is limited to the fullest extent permitted by law.
Indemnification
You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless us and our licensors, officers, directors, employees, and agents from any claims, damages, losses, liabilities, costs, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) arising from: (a) your use of the Service in violation of these Terms; (b) Your Content infringing a third party’s intellectual property rights; or (c) your violation of any applicable law. This indemnification does not apply to claims arising from our own negligence or willful misconduct.
Governing law
These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Delaware, United States, without regard to conflict-of-law principles. This is a placeholder — the final governing jurisdiction will be confirmed when the legal entity is incorporated before general availability, and you will receive 30 days’ notice of any change.
If you are a consumer in the EU or UK, mandatory consumer protection laws in your country of residence may apply in addition to these Terms and cannot be overridden by a governing law clause.
Dispute resolution
Step 1 — Informal resolution (30 days): Before filing any formal claim, you agree to contact us at legal@apppreviewkit.com to describe the dispute and the remedy you seek. We will try in good faith to resolve it within 30 calendar days.
Step 2 — Binding arbitration: If informal resolution fails, any dispute arising out of or related to these Terms shall be resolved by binding arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association (AAA) under its Consumer Arbitration Rules, with proceedings conducted in Delaware (or by video call if both parties agree).
Small-claims exception: Either party may bring a claim in small-claims court for qualifying amounts without going through arbitration.
Class-action waiver: You agree to resolve disputes individually, not as part of a class, collective, or representative action. The arbitrator may not consolidate claims.
If you are a consumer in the EU or UK, you may also use the EU Online Dispute Resolution platform at ec.europa.eu/odr or contact your local consumer dispute resolution body — the arbitration clause above does not affect those statutory rights.
Changes to these Terms
We may revise these Terms from time to time. For material changes — those that expand your obligations, reduce your rights, or change the dispute resolution procedure — we will give you at least 30 days’ advance notice via an in-product banner and email.
Continued use of the Service after the effective date of a revised version constitutes your acceptance of the new Terms.
