Terms and Conditions

1. App Overview

YapTask is a voice-driven task management application that allows users to create, update, delete, and organize their tasks using voice commands. The App uses on-device transcription for voice input, AI-powered interpretation for understanding tasks, and real-time synchronization via Firebase to keep your task list up-to-date.

2. User Data and Privacy

2.1 Data Collection and Use

YapTask requires certain personal information for authentication and service provision:

• Authentication: The App supports Apple Sign-In and in the future may support additional login options. Personal data collected during sign-in is used to verify user identity.
• Voice Commands: Voice data is processed locally on your device for transcription. For enhanced task understanding, anonymized voice commands may be sent to Firebase Functions, where OpenAI-powered AI interprets the command.
• Task Data Storage: Task data is stored in Firebase Firestore, ensuring real-time synchronization across devices. Task data may include text, voice transcription, due dates, reminders, and user-provided tags.

2.2 Data Security

User data is encrypted during transmission and stored securely in Firebase. However, absolute security cannot be guaranteed, and users are encouraged to keep their account credentials confidential.

2.3 Data Retention and Deletion

User data is retained as long as the account is active. Upon account deletion, YapTask will permanently erase the user's task data from the Firestore database. Certain anonymized or aggregated data may still be retained for analytical purposes.

3. Subscription Management

3.1 Subscription Plans

YapTask offers subscription-based plans. Subscription details, including pricing, are available within the app.

3.2 Payment Terms and Auto-Renewal

Subscriptions are managed through RevenueCat. Payments will be charged to your Apple ID account upon confirmation of purchase. Subscriptions automatically renew unless canceled at least 24 hours before the end of the current subscription period. Users will be charged for renewal within 24 hours before the current subscription period ends, according to the selected plan's rate.

3.3 Cancellations and Refunds

Users may manage and cancel subscriptions via their Apple account settings. Cancellations will take effect at the end of the current subscription period. Refund requests will be evaluated based on Apple's refund policies.

4. User Responsibilities

4.1 Accuracy of Data

Users are responsible for the accuracy of the data they provide, including the voice commands issued to the app. YapTask interprets commands based on AI algorithms, and while it aims to provide accurate results, users should verify the app's output.

4.2 Account Security

Users should not share their YapTask accounts with others and are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of their login credentials. YapTask is not liable for any loss or damage resulting from unauthorized access due to a user's failure to secure their account.
