5.1 One-Time Purchase

TindaMate PRO is offered as a one-time purchase through Google Play Billing.

It is not a recurring subscription.

The applicable purchase price, currency, taxes, and payment options are displayed by Google Play before purchase confirmation.

5.2 Lifetime License

A successful purchase grants the purchaser a non-exclusive, non-transferable license to access TindaMate PRO for the supported lifetime of the product, subject to these Terms.

“Lifetime” refers to the period during which TindaMate PRO remains available and supported as a product. It does not guarantee perpetual operation, indefinite updates, or compatibility with all future devices and Android versions.

There are no recurring subscription fees for the purchased PRO license.

5.3 License Verification

PRO activation requires successful purchase verification through Google Play and TindaMate’s licensing service.

An internet connection may be required for:

• Initial purchase verification.
• PRO activation.
• Purchase restoration.
• Periodic license validation.

After successful activation, supported PRO features may remain available offline.

5.4 Purchase Restoration

Users may restore eligible PRO purchases through the application’s purchase restoration functionality, subject to Google Play purchase records and successful license verification.

Purchases are generally associated with the Google account used to complete the transaction.

The developer cannot guarantee restoration when the relevant purchase record is unavailable, invalid, refunded, or revoked.

5.5 License Restrictions

Users may not:

• Circumvent or interfere with license verification.
• Distribute unauthorized activation methods.
• Modify the application to bypass PRO restrictions.
• Resell or transfer PRO licenses independently of Google Play’s supported mechanisms.
• Use fraudulent purchase credentials or transaction records.

A PRO entitlement may be revoked when the underlying purchase is refunded, canceled, invalidated, or determined to be fraudulent.

6. Payments and Refunds

TindaMate PRO purchases are processed through Google Play Billing.

Payment processing, available payment methods, applicable taxes, and certain refund procedures are governed by Google Play’s applicable terms and policies.

Users may request refunds through Google Play’s available refund procedures or contact the developer for assistance.

Nothing in these Terms limits any mandatory refund, consumer protection, or other statutory rights available under applicable law.

7. Recording Payments

TindaMate allows users to record business payments, including Cash and GCash transactions.

Unless explicitly stated otherwise, TindaMate does not directly process, receive, transfer, or settle customer payments.

Recording a payment in TindaMate does not independently confirm that funds were successfully received.

Users are responsible for verifying actual payment completion through their cash records, GCash accounts, banks, or other applicable payment providers.

TindaMate is not a bank, electronic money issuer, payment processor, or financial institution.

8. User Responsibilities

These records may include:

• Product and service information.
• Sales transactions.

The developer does not claim ownership of users’ business records.

TindaMate is designed primarily as an offline-capable application.

Business records and related information are generally stored locally on the user’s Android device.

Users acknowledge that locally stored information may be lost because of:

• Device damage, loss, or theft.
• Application uninstallation.
• Clearing application storage.
• Operating system errors.
• Storage corruption.

Users are responsible for maintaining appropriate backups of important business records.

The developer does not guarantee that deleted, corrupted, or lost locally stored information can be recovered.

Nothing in this section excludes liability that cannot lawfully be excluded.

11. Customer Information and Privacy

Certain TindaMate PRO features allow users to record customer information, including customer names, credit balances, and photographs associated with promissory notes.

Users are responsible for ensuring that they have an appropriate legal basis for collecting and processing customer information.

Where required by applicable law, users must provide appropriate privacy notices and obtain valid consent.

Users must take reasonable measures to protect customer information against unauthorized access, disclosure, or misuse.

The developer’s handling of information is described in the TindaMate Privacy Policy.

12. Offline Functionality and Internet Requirements

TindaMate is designed to allow users to perform supported business operations without a continuous internet connection.

However, some features depend on external services and require internet access.

These may include:

• Google Play purchases.
• Initial PRO license activation.
• Purchase restoration.
• Online license verification.

The developer does not guarantee uninterrupted availability of external services, including Google Play or internet connectivity.

TindaMate generates reports and calculations based on information entered into the application.

Users are responsible for reviewing the accuracy of:

• Sales totals.
• Payment records.
• Inventory balances.
• Outstanding receivables.

TindaMate does not provide professional accounting, auditing, tax, legal, or financial advice.

Reports generated by the application should not be treated as independently certified financial statements.

Users should consult qualified professionals when necessary.

14. Intellectual Property

TindaMate, including its software, interface, design, branding, logos, and related materials, is owned by Justin Villocido or the applicable rights holders.

Users receive a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to use the application in accordance with these Terms.

Except as permitted by applicable law, users may not:

• Copy or redistribute the application without authorization.

Where practicable, users will be informed of material changes that substantially affect their use of the application.

16. Availability and Support

The developer aims to maintain TindaMate as a reliable business application.

However, uninterrupted availability, compatibility with every Android device, and error-free operation cannot be guaranteed.

Support and maintenance may be provided through the contact channels published on the official TindaMate website.

The developer may establish reasonable support procedures and response times.

17. Disclaimer of Warranties

To the extent permitted by applicable law, TindaMate is provided on an “as is” and “as available” basis.

• The application will operate without interruption or errors.
• Every device will be compatible.
• All calculations or reports will be free from errors.
• The application will meet every user’s business requirements.
• All lost information can be recovered.

This disclaimer does not affect warranties or consumer rights that cannot lawfully be excluded.

18. Limitation of Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, the developer shall not be liable for indirect, incidental, special, or consequential losses arising from use of TindaMate, including lost profits, lost business opportunities, or loss of business records.

Where liability cannot lawfully be excluded, it shall be limited only to the extent permitted by applicable law.

Nothing in these Terms excludes liability for fraud, willful misconduct, or any other liability that cannot legally be excluded.

19. Suspension or Termination

The developer may restrict access to licensing services or revoke invalid PRO entitlements where reasonably necessary to address:

• Fraudulent purchases.
• Unauthorized license circumvention.
• Abuse of licensing infrastructure.
• Violations of applicable law.

Where appropriate, users may be given an opportunity to resolve issues.

Users may stop using TindaMate at any time by uninstalling the application.

Termination does not automatically entitle users to refunds beyond those available under applicable law and Google Play policies.

20. Third-Party Services

TindaMate may rely on third-party services, including Google Play Billing and cloud infrastructure providers.

These services are subject to their own applicable terms and policies.

The developer is not responsible for third-party service interruptions beyond the developer’s reasonable control.

21. Changes to These Terms

The developer may update these Terms to reflect changes in:

• Application functionality.
• Licensing arrangements.

Disputes arising from these Terms shall be handled in accordance with applicable Philippine law and the jurisdiction of competent courts.
