Terms of Use — BriefAI: Letter Scanner Guide
Last updated: 19 May 2026
Provider: Adem Cilgin, an individual developer ("we", "us", "our").
These Terms of Use ("Terms") govern your access to and use of the mobile application BriefAI: Letter Scanner Guide (the "App") and related services (the "Services"). By downloading, installing, or using the App, you agree to these Terms.
If you do not agree, do not use the Services.
1. Who may use the Services
You must be legally able to enter a binding contract in your jurisdiction (typically 18+, or older if local law requires). If you use the App on behalf of an organization, you represent that you are authorized to bind that organization.
2. What the App does
The App provides software tools to:
- Capture or import images of documents such as letters, notices, and forms.
- Obtain AI-generated plain-language explanations, summaries, and structured details (e.g., dates and reference numbers).
- Obtain AI-generated translations of document content.
- Generate draft replies or appeal letters that you may choose to edit and use.
- Store materials locally on your device.
The Services are an explanation, translation, and guidance tool only. They are informational and organizational. They do not constitute legal, tax, immigration, financial, medical, governmental, or other professional or official advice.
3. Not professional or official advice; reliance disclaimer
BriefAI helps you understand documents — it does not advise you, represent you, or act for any government, court, or authority, and it is not a substitute for a qualified professional or an official source.
AI-generated outputs may be incomplete, outdated, or incorrect. Laws, procedures, forms, and deadlines vary by country, region, court, and agency. You are solely responsible for:
- Meeting deadlines, payments, appeals, hearings, and other obligations;
- Verifying any AI-generated content against the original document and official sources before relying on it;
- Consulting a qualified professional (such as a lawyer, tax advisor, or immigration counselor) or the relevant authority when appropriate.
No attorney–client or other professional relationship is formed by using the App. We make no representation that any output is accurate, complete, or suitable for a particular purpose or outcome. Any reliance on the Services is at your own risk.
4. Acceptable use
You agree not to:
- Use the Services for unlawful, fraudulent, or harmful purposes;
- Reverse engineer, probe, or overload our systems, or bypass rate limits, authentication, or security controls;
- Submit content you do not have the right to process, or content that infringes third-party rights;
- Use the Services to create misleading official communications, forged documents, or to impersonate any person or authority;
- Submit illegal content. Child sexual abuse material is strictly prohibited and may be reported to authorities.
We may suspend or terminate access for violations.
5. Your content and license to us
You retain rights in the content you submit. To operate the Services, you grant us a limited, non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free license to host, process, transmit, and display your content solely to provide the Services to you, including routing it to AI subprocessors.
You represent that you have all rights necessary to grant this license.
6. Third-party services and subprocessors
The Services rely on third-party infrastructure, including OpenAI, Cloudflare, RevenueCat, Google (Firebase), and the Apple / Google app-distribution and payment platforms. Their terms and privacy policies also apply. See our Privacy Policy for details.
7. Subscriptions, free tier, and payments
7.1 Free tier
The App may offer a limited number of complimentary document analyses (see the in-app description). We may change free-tier limits with reasonable notice where required by law.
7.2 Paid subscriptions
Paid features are offered via in-app purchases processed by Apple and/or Google. Payment, billing, cancellations, and refunds are governed by the platform provider's terms unless mandatory consumer law provides otherwise.
Auto-renewing subscriptions: Unless you turn off auto-renew at least 24 hours before the end of the current period, your subscription renews automatically and your account is charged at the then-current price. Manage or cancel subscriptions in your Apple ID or Google Play account settings.
Pricing is shown in the App before purchase. Prices may change for new purchases; existing subscribers are subject to platform rules for price changes.
7.3 RevenueCat
Subscription entitlements may be verified through RevenueCat. Technical identifiers may be processed to link purchases to your device.
8. Apple-specific terms (App Store)
If you obtained the App from Apple's App Store:
- These Terms are between you and Adem Cilgin, not Apple. Apple is not responsible for the App or its content.
- Apple has no obligation to provide maintenance or support for the App.
- Apple is not liable for any claims relating to the App or your use of it, including product-liability and third-party IP-infringement claims; our contact details are in Section 18.
- Apple and its subsidiaries are third-party beneficiaries of these Terms and may enforce them regarding your App Store license.
- You must comply with the Apple Media Services Terms and App Store Review Guidelines where applicable.
9. Intellectual property
The App, its branding, and our materials are protected by intellectual-property laws. Except for the limited license to use the App, these Terms grant you no rights to our intellectual property. Any feedback you provide may be used by us without obligation to you.
10. Disclaimers
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, THE SERVICES ARE PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE", WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, WHETHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED, OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT.
WE DO NOT WARRANT THAT OUTPUTS WILL BE ACCURATE, COMPLETE, RELIABLE, ERROR-FREE, OR SUITABLE FOR ANY PARTICULAR LEGAL, FINANCIAL, OR OFFICIAL OUTCOME.
Some jurisdictions do not allow certain disclaimers; in those cases, disclaimers apply to the fullest extent permitted.
11. Limitation of liability
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW:
- WE WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR ANY LOSS OF PROFITS, DATA, GOODWILL, OR BUSINESS, ARISING FROM OR RELATED TO THE SERVICES OR THESE TERMS.
- OUR AGGREGATE LIABILITY FOR ANY CLAIM ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THE SERVICES OR THESE TERMS WILL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF (A) THE AMOUNTS YOU PAID US FOR THE SERVICES IN THE TWELVE (12) MONTHS BEFORE THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO LIABILITY, OR (B) FIFTY US DOLLARS (USD 50).
Nothing in these Terms limits liability that cannot be limited under applicable law (including for gross negligence, willful misconduct, or death or personal injury caused by negligence).
12. Indemnity
You will defend and indemnify us against claims, damages, losses, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising from your content, your misuse of the Services, or your violation of these Terms or applicable law — except to the extent caused by our willful misconduct.
13. Suspension and termination
We may suspend or terminate access to protect the Services or users, or if you breach these Terms. You may stop using the App at any time. Local data can be removed by uninstalling the App or using its in-app delete features.
14. Export and sanctions
You may not use the Services if you are located in a country subject to embargoes or sanctions that prohibit such use, or if you are on a restricted-party list, except as authorized by law.
15. Governing law and disputes
These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of California, United States, without regard to conflict-of-law rules.
Subject to non-waivable consumer rights, the state and federal courts located in California, United States have exclusive jurisdiction over disputes arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Services.
If you are a consumer in the EEA, you may also benefit from mandatory provisions of the law of your country of residence and may have the right to bring proceedings in your home courts. The European Commission provides an ODR platform: https://ec.europa.eu/consumers/odr/.
16. Changes to the Terms
We may modify these Terms. If changes are material, we will provide notice as required by law (e.g., an in-app message). Continued use after the effective date may constitute acceptance.
17. Severability; assignment
If any provision is found invalid, the remainder remains in effect. We may assign these Terms in connection with a merger, acquisition, or asset sale. You may not assign these Terms without our consent.
