Terms of Service
Last updated: November 5, 2026
These Terms are an agreement between you and Ariel Quintanilla ("we", "us") covering your use of the Cartlas™ app and its sync service. You can contact us by email at support@cartlas.app. Please read them — particularly the sections on routes and liability.
1. Acceptance
By downloading, installing or using Cartlas™, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use the app. If you use Cartlas™ on an Apple device, Apple's Licensed Application End User License Agreement also applies, and where it conflicts with these Terms on matters it covers, it controls.
2. Licence
You get a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable licence to use Cartlas™ on devices you own or control, for your own personal, non-commercial use. You may not copy, sell, sublicense, reverse-engineer, or attempt to extract the source code of the app, except where that restriction is prohibited by law.
3. Accounts
An account is optional. If you create one, you agree to provide an accurate email address, to keep your password confidential, and to be responsible for everything that happens under your account. Tell us promptly at support@cartlas.app if you believe your account has been accessed without your permission. You must be at least 13 years old to create an account.
4. Acceptable use
You agree not to:
- Use the service for anything unlawful, or to store unlawful or infringing content
- Attempt to access another user's account or data
- Probe, scan, overload, or disrupt the service or its infrastructure, or circumvent any rate limits or authentication
- Use automated means to create accounts or to bulk-upload data
- Resell or commercially redistribute the service
5. Your content
Your lists, departments, maps and other content remain yours. You grant us only the limited permission needed to store, transmit and display that content in order to run the sync service for you. We do not claim ownership of it and we do not use it for any other purpose.
6. Ownership and trademarks
The Cartlas™ app, including its code, design, graphics, icons and text, is owned by Ariel Quintanilla and protected by copyright and other laws. All rights not expressly granted in these Terms are reserved.
Cartlas™ and the Cartlas™ logo are trademarks of Ariel Quintanilla. You may not use them without our written permission.
If you believe content in Cartlas™ infringes your intellectual property, email support@cartlas.app with the details.
If you send us suggestions or ideas about Cartlas™, you grant us the right to use them without payment or obligation to you.
7. Routes and store maps are estimates
Important. The store map in Cartlas™ is a layout that you draw yourself. It is not a real map of any store, it is not derived from any store's actual floor plan, and it is not connected to your physical location. Routes are a convenience feature computed from your own layout, and they may be inaccurate, incomplete, or out of date the moment a store rearranges anything.
You are responsible for your own safety and conduct while shopping. Pay attention to your surroundings rather than your phone, and follow the instructions, signage and staff of any store you are in. Do not rely on Cartlas™ for anything safety-critical.
8. Availability and changes to the service
Cartlas™ is provided free of charge. We may add, change, suspend or discontinue features, or the sync service as a whole, at any time. There is no uptime commitment and no service level agreement. We will make a reasonable effort to give notice before permanently discontinuing the sync service so you can keep a copy of your data. Because the app works offline and stores your data locally, an outage of the sync service does not stop you using the app.
9. Disclaimer of warranties
To the fullest extent permitted by law, Cartlas™ is 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, accuracy, and non-infringement. We do not warrant that the service will be uninterrupted, error-free, or that data will never be lost.
10. Limitation of liability
To the fullest extent permitted by law, Ariel Quintanilla will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential or punitive damages, or for any loss of data, profits, or goodwill, arising out of or relating to your use of Cartlas™. Our total aggregate liability for all claims relating to the service will not exceed the greater of the amount you paid for the app in the twelve months before the claim (which for a free app is zero) or USD 25.
Some jurisdictions do not allow certain exclusions or limitations, so parts of sections 9 and 10 may not apply to you. Nothing in these Terms limits liability for fraud, death or personal injury caused by negligence, or anything else that cannot be limited by law.
11. Termination
You may stop using Cartlas™ at any time and delete your account from the Account screen in the app. We may suspend or terminate an account that breaches these Terms, or where required by law. Sections 5, 6, 9, 10 and 12 survive termination.
12. Governing law
These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Texas, United States of America, without regard to its conflict of law rules. If you are a consumer, you keep the benefit of any mandatory protections of the law of the country where you live.
13. Apple
Apple is not a party to these Terms and has no obligation to provide support for Cartlas™. Apple is not responsible for addressing any claim you have relating to the app, including product liability, regulatory, or intellectual property claims. Apple and its subsidiaries are third-party beneficiaries of these Terms and may enforce them against you.
14. Changes to these terms
We may update these Terms. The date at the top shows the current version, and continuing to use Cartlas™ after an update means you accept it. If a change is material we will make a reasonable effort to notify you in the app.
