1. Acceptance of Terms
By downloading, installing, or using BookWord (the “App”), you agree to these Terms of Use. If you do not agree, do not use the App.
2. License
Tanner Gordon grants you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to use the App on an Apple device you own or control for personal, non-commercial purposes, subject to these Terms and Apple’s App Store terms.
You may not copy, modify, redistribute, reverse-engineer, decompile, or disassemble the App except where applicable law expressly permits it.
3. Reading Companion and Speech Recognition
BookWord is intended as a convenient reading and dictionary aid. Speech recognition may occasionally misunderstand a word, and dictionary entries may not cover every specialized, regional, or newly coined usage. You are responsible for evaluating a definition before relying on it for academic, professional, medical, legal, or other consequential purposes.
BookWord only supports listening while the app is open and a reading session is active. It does not promise background or locked-screen listening.
4. Local Data
Recent words and preferences are stored locally on your device. The developer is not responsible for data loss caused by deleting the App, resetting or replacing the device, or iOS storage management.
5. Dictionary Content
BookWord includes dictionary content from Princeton WordNet under its applicable copyright and license. Other interface text, graphics, and software are owned by Tanner Gordon or licensed to the developer and are protected by intellectual-property laws.
6. Disclaimer of Warranties
THE APP IS PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE” WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, ACCURACY, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT. WE DO NOT WARRANT THAT THE APP WILL BE ERROR-FREE OR UNINTERRUPTED.
7. Limitation of Liability
TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, TANNER GORDON WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES ARISING FROM YOUR USE OF THE APP.
8. Age Requirements
The App is intended for users aged 13 and older. If you are under 18, you represent that you have a parent or guardian’s permission to use it.
9. Changes
We may update these Terms from time to time. Continued use after changes become effective constitutes acceptance of the revised Terms.
10. Governing Law
These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Texas, United States, without regard to conflict-of-law principles.
11. Apple-Specific Terms
These Terms are between you and Tanner Gordon, not Apple. Apple has no obligation to provide maintenance or support for the App. Apple is a third-party beneficiary of these Terms and may enforce them against you.
