Terms of Service

Agreement to these terms

These Terms of Service (“Terms”) are a binding agreement between you and SIA Karto (“Jepex”, “we”, “us”), the company behind Jepex. They govern your use of the Jepex website (jepex.app) and the Jepex applications for macOS and iOS (together, the “Service”). By creating an account or using the Service, you agree to these Terms and to our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, please do not use the Service.

Who can use Jepex

You must be at least 16 years old to create an account or use the Service. By using Jepex you confirm that you meet this requirement and can form a binding contract. If you use Jepex on behalf of an organisation, you confirm you are authorised to bind that organisation to these Terms.

Your account

You can sign in with email and password, Apple, or Google. You are responsible for keeping your credentials secure and for activity that happens under your account. Please give accurate information and keep it up to date, and tell us promptly at privacy@jepex.app if you suspect unauthorised use of your account.

Licence to use Jepex

Subject to these Terms, we grant you a personal, limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable and revocable licence to use the Service for your own photography work. We and our licensors retain all rights in the software, design, and brand. Except where the law allows, you may not copy, modify, reverse-engineer, resell, or create derivative works of the Service.

Plans, pricing & billing

Jepex offers a free tier and two paid subscriptions, Recipes and Studio, billed monthly or annually through Stripe. Current prices are shown on our pricing page and at checkout. As of the last update:

• Recipes — €3.99 / month or €19.99 / year
• Studio — €7.99 / month or €39.99 / year
• Free — €0

All prices include applicable VAT. We do not currently offer a free trial.

Paid subscriptions renew automatically at the end of each billing period at the then-current price until you cancel, and you authorise us (through Stripe) to charge your payment method for each renewal. You can cancel at any time from the billing portal (Account → Manage subscription). Cancellation stops the next renewal; your plan stays active until the end of the period you have already paid for. We may change prices or plans, and will give you reasonable notice before a change takes effect; a price change applies from your next renewal, and if you do not accept it you can cancel.

Right of withdrawal

If you are a consumer in the EU/EEA, you normally have 14 days to withdraw from the purchase of digital services without giving a reason.

Because Jepex gives you access immediately, when you subscribe you expressly ask us to start providing the Service right away and acknowledge that you will lose your right of withdrawal once it has been fully provided, and that if you withdraw during the period you agree to pay for the part already provided. To withdraw where the right still applies, email privacy@jepex.app within 14 days of your purchase; we will refund eligible amounts using your original payment method. These statutory rights are in addition to your right to cancel renewal at any time.

Your content

You keep ownership of the recipes, photos, descriptions, and other material you create or upload (“Your Content”). By submitting Your Content, you grant us a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free licence to host, store, reproduce, adapt (for example, resize images), publish, and display it for the purpose of operating and promoting the Service.

If you publish a recipe or make your profile public, you also allow other users to view it and the public to find it — see the note on public content in our Privacy Policy. This licence ends when you delete Your Content or your account, except for copies kept briefly in backups, content others have already relied on (such as a recipe someone has favourited), and records we must keep by law.

You represent that you own or have the rights to Your Content and that it does not infringe anyone’s rights or break the law. You are responsible for what you post.

Acceptable use

Please do not misuse the Service. In particular, do not:

• break the law or these Terms, or infringe intellectual-property or privacy rights;
• upload content that is unlawful, deceptive, hateful, harassing, sexually exploitative, malware-bearing, or that contains other people’s personal data without their consent;
• attempt to access accounts or data that are not yours;
• probe, scrape, overload, or disrupt the Service, or bypass security or rate limits;
• reverse-engineer or copy the software except as the law allows.

Reporting content & takedowns

If you believe content on Jepex is illegal or infringes your rights, email legal@jepex.app with enough detail to identify the content and the problem. We review reports and may remove content or suspend accounts.

Where we remove your content or restrict your account, we will give you a statement of reasons and, where applicable, how to appeal, in line with the EU Digital Services Act.

Copyright. Rights-holders may send a notice to legal@jepex.app identifying the work and the infringing material, with a good-faith statement and contact details. We remove infringing material and terminate repeat infringers. If your content was removed by mistake, you may send a counter-notice.

Intellectual property

“Jepex”, the logo, the applications, the website, and their design are owned by SIA Karto or its licensors and are protected by intellectual-property laws. These Terms do not grant you any right to our trademarks or branding.

Availability & changes

We work to keep Jepex available, but we do not guarantee that it will be uninterrupted or error-free. We may add, change, or remove features, and may suspend the Service for maintenance. The Service relies on third parties (such as Supabase, Stripe, and Cloudflare), and we are not responsible for their services.

Warranties & consumer rights

We provide the Service with reasonable skill and care. For paid digital content and services, EU consumers have statutory rights that what we supply conforms to the contract, and nothing in these Terms limits those rights. Except for those rights and to the extent permitted by law, the Service is provided “as is” without further warranties.

Limitation of liability

To the extent permitted by law, SIA Karto is not liable for indirect or consequential losses, lost data or profits, or matters outside our reasonable control. Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits our liability for death or personal injury caused by our negligence, for fraud, for gross negligence or wilful misconduct, or for any liability that cannot be excluded under applicable law — including the mandatory statutory rights of EU consumers. Where our liability may lawfully be limited, it is limited to the amount you paid us in the 12 months before the claim.

Termination

You can stop using Jepex and delete your account at any time. We may suspend or terminate your access if you breach these Terms or where needed to comply with the law. On termination your licence ends, but the sections that by their nature should continue — the content licence to the extent others have relied on it, intellectual property, warranties, liability, and governing law — survive.

Governing law & disputes

These Terms are governed by the laws of Latvia. If you are a consumer, you also keep the mandatory protections of the law of your country of residence, and you may bring proceedings in your local courts. We would like to resolve any dispute informally first — please email legal@jepex.app before taking other steps.

Changes to these terms

We may update these Terms from time to time. We will post the new version with a revised date and, for material changes, notify you in the app or by email. Continuing to use Jepex after a change takes effect means you accept the updated Terms.
