Terms of Service
1. Introduction
Welcome to Marinaid. These Terms of Service ("Terms") form a legally binding agreement between you and Polpis LLC ("Marinaid," "we," "us," or "our") and govern your access to and use of the Marinaid mobile application and related services (collectively, the "Service").
By creating an account or using the Service, you agree to these Terms and our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, you must not use the Service.
2. Eligibility and Accounts
- You must be at least 13 years old (or the minimum legal age in your jurisdiction).
- The Service requires an Apple ID with iCloud enabled. Your account is tied to your Apple ID.
- You are responsible for maintaining the security of your Apple ID and iCloud account.
- You are responsible for all activity that occurs under your account.
We may suspend or terminate accounts that violate these Terms or applicable law.
3. License to Use the Service
Subject to your compliance with these Terms, Marinaid grants you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to access and use the Service for personal, non-commercial purposes.
- Do not copy, sell, or commercially exploit the Service.
- Do not reverse engineer or attempt to extract source code.
- Do not use the Service for unlawful purposes.
4. User Content
You may create, upload, or store content such as recipes, notes, and cooking data ("User Content"). You retain ownership of your User Content.
Your User Content is stored in your private Apple iCloud account via CloudKit and on your device in a local database. By using the Service, you grant Marinaid a limited license to process and display your User Content solely to operate and improve the Service.
Marinaid does not make User Content public by default and does not operate a public content-sharing platform.
You are responsible for ensuring that you have the rights to any User Content you upload.
5. Subscriptions
Core Marinaid features are free to use. Marinaid Pro is an auto-renewable subscription that unlocks additional features. Subscriptions are purchased and managed through the Apple App Store.
- Subscription name: Marinaid Pro.
- Length of subscription: one month or one year, depending on the plan you select.
- Price: the price of each plan is shown in the App and in the App Store, in your local currency, before you confirm the purchase.
- Refunds are governed by Apple’s policies. Marinaid cannot issue App Store refunds directly.
- Subscriptions are for personal, non-commercial use only.
6. Payment, Renewal, and Cancellation
Payment is charged to your Apple ID account at confirmation of purchase.
Your subscription renews automatically. It renews at the price of the plan you selected unless auto-renew is turned off at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Your Apple ID account is charged for renewal within 24 hours prior to the end of the current period.
You can manage your subscription, or turn off auto-renew, in your App Store account settings at any time after purchase. Cancellation takes effect at the end of the current billing period — the current period cannot be cancelled part-way through, and Marinaid does not provide partial-period refunds.
If a free trial or introductory offer is made available, any unused portion of that offer is forfeited when you purchase a subscription to Marinaid Pro.
Marinaid does not process payments directly and does not store payment details.
Your purchase is also subject to Apple’s Media Services Terms and Conditions and, where applicable, theApple standard end-user license agreement.
7. Marinaid Intellectual Property
All rights, title, and interest in the Service, including software, design, and branding (excluding User Content), are owned by Marinaid or its licensors.
Marinaid™ and the Marinaid logo are trademarks of Polpis LLC. You may not use Marinaid trademarks or branding without prior written permission.
8. Feedback
If you provide feedback or suggestions, you grant Marinaid the right to use that feedback to improve the Service without obligation or compensation.
9. Third-Party Services
The Service integrates with the following third-party services:
- Apple iCloud (CloudKit) — cloud storage and cross-device sync, governed by Apple's terms and privacy policy.
- RevenueCat — subscription management and purchase verification, governed by RevenueCat's terms and privacy policy.
- Instacart — optional grocery ordering. When you send a grocery list to Instacart, the order is placed with Instacart, not with Marinaid, and is governed by Instacart's terms and privacy policy.
Your use of these third-party services is subject to their respective terms and policies. Marinaid is not responsible for third-party content, services, or practices.
Affiliate compensation. Marinaid participates in Instacart's affiliate program, administered by impact.com. If you place an order after sending a grocery list to Instacart, we may earn a commission on that order. This costs you nothing additional, does not affect the price you pay, and does not influence the recipes, ingredients, or quantities the Service suggests. Marinaid does not sell advertising or accept payment for recipe placement.
10. Account Termination
You may delete your account at any time through the App or by contacting support. We may suspend or terminate access to the Service if you violate these Terms.
Upon termination, your right to use the Service will cease. Data stored in your iCloud account is managed by Apple and subject to your iCloud storage settings.
11. Disclaimer of Warranties
The Service is provided "as is" and "as available" without warranties of any kind, express or implied, to the fullest extent permitted by law.
12. Limitation of Liability
To the maximum extent permitted by law, Marinaid shall not be liable for indirect, incidental, or consequential damages arising from your use of the Service.
13. Governing Law
These Terms are governed by the laws of the United States and the state in which Polpis LLC is organized, without regard to conflict-of-law principles.
14. Changes to These Terms
We may update these Terms from time to time. Material changes will be communicated through the Service or other appropriate means.
