14.2Your Subscription will follow a monthly or yearly billing cycle (‘Billing Cycle’), depending on the Subscription you have signed up for. The term of your Subscription will align with your Billing Cycle, and your Subscription shall automatically renew at the end of each Billing Cycle for a further Billing Cycle for the fees set out on the App for your Subscription unless and until either you or we amend, cancel, pause or end the Subscription in accordance with these terms.
14.3The Subscription fees are payable and will be charged automatically by the App Store, in advance of each Billing Cycle, to the payment method associated with your Apple ID.
14.4All payments are taken and processed by the App Store in accordance with the App Store rules. We do not receive or store your payment-card details.

16Refunds and recovering losses
iOS users
16.1If the App fails to meet the standards required by applicable law (including that the App is of satisfactory quality, fit for purpose and as described), and if we have not effectively disclaimed that standard, please contact Apple who will provide you with a full refund of the price you paid for the App. Any other claims, losses, liabilities, damages, costs or expenses attributable to any failure to conform to any valid and applicable warranty will be our sole responsibility, including claims:
16.1.1that relate to product liability;
16.1.2that the App fails to conform to any applicable legal or regulatory requirement; and
16.1.3arising under consumer protection, privacy, or similar legislation.
To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, Apple has no other responsibility or obligation in relation to the App beyond providing a refund in the circumstances described in clause 16.1.
17Our responsibility to you
17.1If we breach this contract or are negligent, we are liable to you for foreseeable loss or damage that you suffer as a result. By ‘foreseeable’ we mean that, at the time this contract was made, either it was clear that such loss or damage would occur or you and we both knew that it might reasonably occur, as a result of something we did (or failed to do).
17.2We are not liable to you for any loss or damage that was not foreseeable, any loss or damage not caused by our breach or negligence, or any business loss or damage.
17.3If the App damages your device or any software installed on it as a result of our failure to use reasonable care and skill, please let us know. If we can, we will repair the damage. If that is not possible, we will compensate you. We may ask you for information (including photographs) about what has happened so that we can understand the nature of the problem.
17.4Nothing in these terms excludes or limits our liability for any death or personal injury caused by our negligence, liability for fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation, or any other liability that the law does not allow us to exclude or limit.
18Ending this agreement
18.1We can end this agreement if you do not comply with any part of it.
18.2If we end this agreement under clause 18.1, we will give you a reasonable amount of notice before the agreement ends but if what you have done is serious then we may end this agreement immediately and without advance notice to you. ‘Serious’ means that you are causing harm (or attempting to cause harm) to other users, interfering with the operation of the App or doing anything else that we think presents a big enough risk to justify us ending the agreement quickly.
18.3We may also end this agreement at any time by giving you reasonable notice (which will be at least 30 days in advance) if we stop providing our services or supporting the App (in whole or in part) or if we, acting reasonably, believe it is necessary to do so to comply with applicable law or to support our legitimate business interests.

Many of these, such as your internet connection, your email or text service, your device and the App Store, are entirely outside of our control. Although we will do everything we reasonably can to resolve issues, we are not responsible to you if you are unable to use all or any part of the App due to a poor internet connection, faulty components in your device (such as a faulty camera), App Store failure or anything else that it would not be reasonable to expect us to control.
