Effective Date: June 1, 2025  ยท  Developer: John Steinmetz

These Terms of Use ("Terms") are a binding agreement between you and John Steinmetz, based in North Carolina, USA ("we," "us," or "our"), governing your use of the Print Forge application for iPhone and related services (the "App"). By downloading, accessing, or using the App, you agree to these Terms and to our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, do not use the App.

1. Eligibility

You must be at least 13 years old (or the minimum age of digital consent in your country) and able to form a binding contract to use the App.

2. License

We grant you a personal, limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to use the App for your personal, non-commercial use, subject to these Terms and the Apple-required terms in Section 11. You may not copy, modify, reverse engineer, resell, or distribute the App except as permitted by law.

3. No Account Required

Print Forge does not require you to create an account. All scan data and project files are stored locally on your device.

4. Subscriptions and Payments

a. Print Forge Pro. Some features require a paid auto-renewing subscription ("Print Forge Pro"). Free features include basic LiDAR scanning, mesh preview, and STL export. Pro adds advanced cleanup options, additional editing tools, slicer presets, and future features as they are released. Current free and Pro feature sets are shown in the App at the time of purchase.

b. Pricing. Current prices are shown in the App and on the App Store at the time of purchase, in your local currency.

c. Billing and auto-renewal. Payment is charged to your Apple ID at confirmation of purchase. Subscriptions automatically renew for the same period at the then-current price unless you cancel at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Your Apple ID is charged for renewal within 24 hours before the period ends.

d. Managing and cancelling. You manage or cancel your subscription in Settings โ†’ [your Apple ID] โ†’ Subscriptions on your device. Cancellation takes effect at the end of the current billing period. Deleting the App does not cancel your subscription.

e. Merchant of record; refunds. Purchases are processed by Apple, which is the merchant of record. Refunds are handled by Apple under its policies; we do not process refunds directly.

f. Restore. You can restore prior purchases within the App.

g. Price changes. We may change subscription prices; changes apply to future billing periods and, where required, only after notice and/or your consent.

5. Acceptable Use

You agree not to: reverse engineer, decompile, or disassemble the App; attempt to circumvent subscription or license checks; use the App to scan objects you do not have the right to reproduce; or use the App in any way that violates applicable law. We may suspend or terminate access for violations.

6. Scan Accuracy and Print Quality Disclaimer

iPhone LiDAR and camera-based scanning produces approximate geometry. Scan accuracy depends on lighting, object surface, distance, device movement, and other factors outside our control. Print Forge does not guarantee that exported models will print successfully, that dimensions will be precise, or that models will be free of mesh errors. Always review your model in a slicer before printing and use your own judgment when printing replacement or functional parts. Do not use this App for safety-critical, medical, structural, or any application where dimensional accuracy is required.

7. Intellectual Property

The App, including its software, design, and branding, is owned by us and protected by intellectual-property laws. These Terms grant you no rights in our trademarks or content beyond the license in Section 2. You own the 3D models and scan files you produce with the App.

8. Third-Party Services

The App relies on Apple (ARKit, RealityKit, StoreKit) and RevenueCat for subscriptions. Your use of those services is subject to their own terms. We are not responsible for third-party services.

9. Disclaimer of Warranties

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, THE APP AND ALL OUTPUT FILES, MODELS, AND PRINT READINESS ANALYSES ARE PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE," WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, WHETHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED, OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, ACCURACY, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT. WE DO NOT WARRANT THAT SCAN RESULTS WILL BE ACCURATE, COMPLETE, OR SUITABLE FOR ANY PARTICULAR PRINTING OR MANUFACTURING USE. SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OF CERTAIN WARRANTIES, SO SOME OF THE ABOVE MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.

10. Limitation of Liability

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW:

(a) No indirect damages. IN NO EVENT WILL JOHN STEINMETZ OR HIS AFFILIATES, LICENSORS, OR SERVICE PROVIDERS BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR FOR ANY LOSS OF PROFITS, REVENUE, DATA, GOODWILL, OR OTHER INTANGIBLE LOSSES, OR FOR ANY PERSONAL INJURY OR PROPERTY DAMAGE, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THE APP OR THESE TERMS, WHETHER BASED IN CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), STRICT LIABILITY, OR ANY OTHER LEGAL THEORY, EVEN IF ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

(b) Liability cap. OUR TOTAL, AGGREGATE LIABILITY FOR ANY AND ALL CLAIMS ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THE APP OR THESE TERMS WILL NOT EXCEED THE TOTAL AMOUNT OF SUBSCRIPTION FEES YOU ACTUALLY PAID FOR THE APP.

(c) Sole remedy. IF YOU HAVE NOT PAID ANY SUBSCRIPTION FEES, OR IF THE FOREGOING CAP IS HELD UNENFORCEABLE, YOUR SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE REMEDY IS TO STOP USING AND TO DELETE THE APP.

(d) Local law. SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OR LIMITATION OF CERTAIN DAMAGES, SO SOME OF THE ABOVE MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU; IN THOSE CASES OUR LIABILITY IS LIMITED TO THE SMALLEST AMOUNT PERMITTED BY LAW.

11. Apple-Specific Terms

These Terms are between you and us only, not with Apple, and Apple is not responsible for the App or its content. The license granted is limited to use on Apple-branded products you own or control as permitted by the App Store Terms. Apple has no obligation to provide maintenance or support for the App; we are solely responsible for support and for any product warranties, which we disclaim to the extent permitted by law. We (not Apple) are responsible for addressing any claims relating to the App. You represent that you are not located in a US-embargoed country or on a US prohibited-party list. Apple and its subsidiaries are third-party beneficiaries of these Terms and may enforce them.

12. Dispute Resolution; Governing Law

a. Informal resolution. Before filing any claim, you agree to contact us at [email protected] and attempt to resolve the dispute informally for at least 30 days.

b. Governing law. These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of North Carolina, USA, without regard to its conflict-of-laws rules, except where mandatory local consumer-protection law applies to you.

c. Binding arbitration; class-action waiver. To the maximum extent permitted by law, any dispute that is not resolved informally will be resolved by binding individual arbitration, and not in court, except that either party may bring qualifying claims in small-claims court. You and we waive any right to a jury trial and to participate in a class, collective, or representative action.

13. Termination

We may suspend or terminate your access to the App at any time for violation of these Terms or to comply with law. You may stop using the App at any time. Sections that by their nature should survive termination (including Sections 6, 7, 9โ€“12, and 14) will survive.

14. General

These Terms and the Privacy Policy are the entire agreement between you and us regarding the App. If any provision is found unenforceable, the remaining provisions remain in effect. We may update these Terms; continued use after changes constitutes acceptance.
