If you obtained Rope Logger from Apple’s App Store, Apple’s Licensed Application End User License Agreement (EULA) applies. These Terms supplement that EULA. Were required by Apple’s policies, the EULA controls.
License
We grant you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable license to install and use Rope Logger on Apple-branded devices you own or control, solely for personal or internal business use. You may not copy, modify, reverse engineer, decompile, sell, rent, or exploit the app except as permitted by law.
Eligibility & acceptable use
You must be at least 16 (or the age of digital consent in your region) to use the app. Don’t upload or share content that you don’t have rights to share, that violates law or third-party rights, or that contains sensitive personal data without consent. You’re responsible for your conduct and your content.
User content & permissions
You retain ownership of the content you enter into the app. You grant us a worldwide, royalty-free license to host, process, and transmit that content only as needed to operate and improve the app (for example, to enable CloudKit sharing). We do not sell your content or use it for advertising.
Privacy
We do not run ads or third-party trackers. Data is stored on your device and, if you enable sync/sharing, in your iCloud account via Apple’s CloudKit. We do not maintain our own copies of your content on our servers. See our Privacy Policy for details. Crash/diagnostics data, if enabled in iOS, is provided by Apple and may be de-identified.
CloudKit, iCloud & availability
Cloud features require a valid Apple ID and iCloud enabled. Service quality depends on Apple’s systems and your connectivity. If iCloud storage is full/disabled or Apple experiences outages, sync and sharing may fail or be delayed. Back up your data; we are not responsible for data loss.

- Pro unlocks unlimited ropes for the log (up to users device capabilities).
