Please read these Terms of Service before using JoyCut. By downloading, installing, accessing, or using JoyCut, you acknowledge that you have read and agree to these Terms and our Privacy Policy. JoyCut uses Apple's Standard Licensed Application End User License Agreement (Apple Standard EULA).

1. Scope of These Terms

JoyCut is an iOS app that creates transparent-background stickers from photos and organizes them by date. These Terms describe your rights and responsibilities when using the JoyCut app, Pro features, cloud backup, and related services.

These Terms supplement the Apple Standard EULA. If these Terms conflict with the Apple Standard EULA on a matter concerning the license to use the app, the Apple Standard EULA will control.

2. Services

Take photos and create transparent-background stickers;
Save and view sticker collections by date;
Add and manage tags for stickers;
Save generated images to the system Photos library;
Unlock Pro features through in-app purchases, including additional capture usage, advanced Explore features, and optional cloud backup; and
Use Sign in with Apple to associate and restore cloud backup space when you choose to enable the feature and meet its requirements.

We may modify, suspend, or discontinue parts of the service based on product plans, technical conditions, or compliance requirements. We will try to provide reasonable notice when appropriate.

3. Accounts and Cloud Backup

JoyCut's basic local features generally do not require an account.
Cloud backup is a Pro feature and requires Sign in with Apple to associate a backup space.
You are responsible for protecting your Apple account, device permissions, and backup recovery code. You are responsible for consequences caused by voluntarily sharing, exposing, or losing this information.
Disabling cloud backup stops future automatic uploads but does not automatically delete data already uploaded. To request deletion of cloud backup data, contact us as described in the Contact Us section.

Upload, create, save, or distribute unlawful, infringing, harassing, hateful, sexually explicit, violent, or otherwise inappropriate content;

Except for user content and third-party materials, the JoyCut app, interface design, brand, icons, code, copy, and related service content belong to JoyCut or the applicable rights holder.

We process information as described in the JoyCut Privacy Policy. The policy explains the data we process, the purposes of processing, third-party services, cloud backup, your choices, and how to contact us.

8. Service Availability and Disclaimers

We work to keep JoyCut stable and available, but we do not guarantee uninterrupted or error-free operation at all times, in every region, or on every network. Some features depend on Apple, Alibaba Cloud, internet connectivity, device permissions, and App Store status, and may be affected by third-party changes, network failures, system restrictions, or review rules.

JoyCut is provided on an “as is” basis. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, we are not liable beyond what the law requires for losses caused by force majeure, third-party service failures, device damage, network interruption, user error, account problems, data synchronization conflicts, or unauthorized access.

We may update these Terms when features, laws, platform requirements, or operational needs change. The updated page will show a new revision date. If a change materially affects your rights or obligations, we will provide notice in an appropriate place.

You may stop using JoyCut at any time. If you no longer accept these Terms, stop using the app and cancel any subscription in your Apple Account subscription settings as needed.

10. Governing Law and Dispute Resolution

These Terms are governed by the laws of the People's Republic of China, except where mandatory conflict-of-law rules require otherwise. The parties should first attempt to resolve any dispute arising from these Terms or the JoyCut service through good-faith discussion. If the dispute cannot be resolved, either party may bring a claim before a court with jurisdiction in accordance with applicable law.
