Terms and Conditions

Provider and scope

Slipangle is provided by PALURO, owner Paul Lukas Roder, Montessoristraße 21, 40670 Meerbusch, Germany. Telephone: +49 176 41071591. You can contact us by email at paul@paluro.de. Full provider information is in the Imprint.

These Terms and Conditions apply to the Slipangle website, the Slipangle mobile app and features made available within the app. By downloading, installing, purchasing or using Slipangle, you agree to these terms to the extent they validly form part of the contract under applicable law.

These terms also constitute the custom end-user license agreement for Slipangle when the app is distributed through Apple's App Store. This agreement is between you and PALURO, not Apple. PALURO, not Apple, is solely responsible for Slipangle and its content. Apple's Media Services Terms and Conditions and Usage Rules continue to apply to your use of the App Store and Apple Account. Mandatory law takes priority over any conflicting contractual term.

What Slipangle does

Slipangle records and analyses vehicle rides using sensors and services available on a compatible phone. Depending on the device, permissions, vehicle and selected features, this may include route, Doppler-based speed, lean or tilt, acceleration, elevation, grade, distance, duration, charts, maps, comparisons and exports.

Slipangle is a telemetry and post-ride analysis product. It is not turn-by-turn navigation, emergency assistance, crash detection, a certified measuring instrument, a replacement for a vehicle speedometer, evidence of legal compliance, an insurance product or a tax-compliant logbook. A map or estimated travel time is context, not an instruction to follow a route.

Measurements depend on phone hardware, mounting position, calibration, satellite and network availability, permissions, weather, terrain and other environmental factors. Some data can be unavailable, delayed or estimated. Slipangle marks estimated data where the product design provides for it, but no consumer sensor system can guarantee perfect or uninterrupted measurements.

Nothing in this section limits statutory rights concerning the conformity of digital products, including rights under Sections 327 and following of the German Civil Code where they apply.

Eligibility and safe use

Slipangle is recommended for people aged 16 or older. If you are a minor, you may use the app only with the consent of a parent or legal guardian and only where you are legally permitted to operate the relevant vehicle. Local license, age, road, equipment and traffic rules always apply.

Set up the app and secure the phone before the vehicle moves.
Do not hold, read or operate the phone while riding or driving.
Use a mount suitable for the vehicle, device, speed and surface.
Do not rely on Slipangle for safety-critical decisions or emergency help.
Do not use measurements to encourage unlawful, dangerous or competitive road use.

You are responsible for the vehicle, its roadworthiness, your conduct, your passengers and compliance with applicable law. A recorded value, personal best or comparison is information about a completed ride, not a target or recommendation.

License and intellectual property

Subject to these terms, the applicable store rules and payment for any paid feature, PALURO grants you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable license to use Slipangle for personal or internal business purposes on devices you own or control. Consumer family-sharing rights provided by the store remain unaffected.

You may not copy, resell, sublicense, distribute, rent, modify, interfere with or create derivative works from the app, nor reverse engineer or attempt to extract its source code, except where and only to the extent applicable law or an open-source license expressly permits it. You may not bypass access controls, purchase validation or Pro feature restrictions.

Slipangle, its brand, software, visual design, website and original content are protected by intellectual property law. Third-party software remains subject to its respective license. No ownership right is transferred to you.

Local data, exports and sharing

Your ride recordings, vehicles and settings are primarily stored inside the app on your device. PALURO does not claim ownership of your ride data. The app needs to process that data locally to provide the functions you request.

You are responsible for keeping exports or backups that matter to you. Uninstalling the app, deleting app data, losing the device, storage failure or operating-system action can make local data unavailable. PALURO cannot restore data that was never transmitted to PALURO. A downgrade from Pro does not intentionally delete recorded rides or vehicles, but paid views or functions can become locked until entitlement is restored.

When you export a ride or share an image, you choose the recipient and become responsible for the legality and consequences of that disclosure, including disclosure of routes, times, locations or vehicle information. Data processing is described in the Privacy Policy.

Slipangle Pro, purchases and subscriptions

Slipangle can offer a free tier and paid Pro access. The current paywall describes the features included in each option. Available plans can include monthly and yearly auto-renewable subscriptions and a non-renewing Lifetime purchase. Plans, introductory offers and availability may vary by territory, store account and eligibility.

Before you confirm a purchase, Apple shows the binding price, currency, billing period, trial or introductory offer, taxes where applicable and renewal terms. That purchase confirmation controls over fallback prices or general descriptions shown elsewhere. Apple processes payment, renewal, cancellation and the payment method. PALURO does not receive your card details.

Auto-renewable subscriptions

A subscription renews automatically for the displayed period unless you cancel it through your Apple Account before Apple's renewal deadline. Any eligible free trial converts to the paid plan shown in the purchase confirmation unless cancelled in time. Deleting Slipangle does not cancel a subscription. You can manage or cancel it in the App Store subscription settings.

Lifetime purchase

Lifetime is a one-time, non-renewing purchase for Pro access during the supported commercial life of the Slipangle app. It is not a subscription and does not promise that the app, every feature, third-party service or compatibility with future hardware and operating systems will exist indefinitely. Statutory rights and remedies remain unaffected if the digital product is not supplied as contractually required.

Entitlement and restoration

Paid access is tied to the store account used for the purchase and is validated through Apple and Qonversion. Use Restore purchases when reinstalling or changing devices. Temporary network or store outages can delay validation. Attempts to manipulate a receipt or entitlement may result in paid access being withheld until the store confirms a valid purchase.

Withdrawal, refunds and consumer rights

Where Apple is identified as merchant of record, Apple administers the transaction, invoice and refund process under its Media Services terms. Refund requests and store-managed withdrawal requests can be submitted through Apple's Report a Problem service or Apple Support.

Consumers may have a statutory right of withdrawal. For digital content, that right may expire after supply begins only if the legal requirements, including any required prior express consent and acknowledgement, have been met. The information shown during the store purchase and in the purchase confirmation explains the process applicable to the transaction. Nothing in these terms waives a non-waivable withdrawal, warranty, conformity, refund or termination right.

If Apple directs you to the app provider, or if your statutory claim concerns PALURO's performance of the digital product, contact paul@paluro.de with the purchase date, product and issue. Do not email full payment-card information.

Availability, updates and changes

Slipangle requires compatible hardware, a supported operating system and, for some functions, location or motion permission, internet access and third-party services. Features can differ by platform or device. Maintenance, outages, store restrictions or provider changes can temporarily affect availability.

PALURO may provide updates needed to maintain security, compatibility and contractual conformity. You should install updates made available to you. PALURO is not responsible for a lack of conformity caused solely by failure to install a supplied update within a reasonable time after you were properly informed, where the statutory requirements for that consequence are met.

For digital products supplied continuously, changes beyond what is necessary to maintain conformity are made only for a valid reason, such as security, legal or technical requirements, preventing misuse, adapting to store or provider changes, or improving existing functions. Such changes are made without additional charge. If a change more than insignificantly impairs access or use, PALURO will provide the notice and termination options required by applicable law.

These terms may be updated for changes in law, the app, stores or the business model. Material changes will be communicated reasonably before they take effect where required. A change does not retroactively remove a paid entitlement or statutory right.

Third-party services

App distribution, payments, maps, weather, analytics, crash diagnostics and purchase validation can depend on Apple or other disclosed providers. Their own terms and privacy notices govern their processing and services. PALURO remains responsible where the law assigns responsibility to PALURO and does not exclude that responsibility by naming a third party.

Liability

PALURO has unlimited liability for intent and gross negligence, for injury to life, body or health, under the German Product Liability Act, for an expressly assumed guarantee and in any other case where liability cannot legally be limited.

For slight negligence, PALURO is liable only for breach of a material contractual duty, meaning a duty whose performance makes proper performance of the contract possible and on whose performance you may regularly rely. In that case, liability is limited to the damage typical for the contract and reasonably foreseeable when the contract was made. This limitation also applies to PALURO's legal representatives and agents.

To the extent legally permitted, liability for loss of locally stored data is limited to the typical restoration effort that would have remained necessary if reasonable export or backup measures had been taken. This does not change PALURO's responsibility for a defect or data loss caused by a breach for which PALURO is legally liable.

Apple App Store provisions

This section applies when you obtain Slipangle through Apple's App Store. It supplements the other sections and records the minimum terms required for a custom App Store end-user license agreement.

Acknowledgement and license scope

This agreement is concluded between you and PALURO only, not Apple. PALURO is solely responsible for Slipangle and its content. The license is non-transferable and permits you to use Slipangle on Apple-branded products that you own or control, as permitted by the Usage Rules in the Apple Media Services Terms and Conditions. Slipangle may also be accessed by other accounts associated with the purchaser through Family Sharing, volume purchasing or Legacy Contacts where Apple permits that access.

Maintenance and support

PALURO is solely responsible for maintenance and support services for Slipangle to the extent stated in these terms or required by law. Apple has no obligation to provide maintenance or support for Slipangle. Support requests can be sent to paul@paluro.de or made by telephone at +49 176 41071591.

Warranty

PALURO is solely responsible for product warranties, whether express or implied by law, to the extent they have not been effectively disclaimed. If Slipangle fails to conform to an applicable warranty, you may notify Apple and Apple will refund the purchase price paid for the app, if any. To the maximum extent permitted by law, Apple has no other warranty obligation for Slipangle. PALURO remains responsible for other claims, losses, liabilities, damages, costs or expenses attributable to a failure to conform to a warranty. Your non-waivable statutory rights remain unaffected.

Product and intellectual-property claims

PALURO, not Apple, is responsible for addressing claims by you or a third party relating to Slipangle or your possession and use of it, including product-liability claims, claims that Slipangle fails to meet a legal or regulatory requirement, and claims under consumer-protection, privacy or similar law.

If a third party claims that Slipangle or your possession and use of it infringes that party's intellectual-property rights, PALURO, not Apple, is solely responsible for the investigation, defence, settlement and discharge of that claim.

Legal compliance and third-party terms

You represent and warrant that you are not located in a country or region subject to a United States Government embargo or designated by the United States Government as a terrorist-supporting country or region, and that you are not listed on a United States Government list of prohibited or restricted parties. You must comply with applicable third-party terms when using Slipangle, including your wireless-data and platform agreements.

Apple as third-party beneficiary

You and PALURO acknowledge and agree that Apple and Apple's subsidiaries are third-party beneficiaries of this agreement. When you accept it, Apple has the right, and is deemed to have accepted the right, to enforce this agreement against you as a third-party beneficiary.

Final provisions and contact

You may stop using Slipangle at any time and cancel a subscription through the store. The license can end if you materially breach these terms and do not remedy the breach after notice where notice and a remedy period are appropriate. Local data remains on your device until you delete it or uninstall the app.

German law applies, excluding the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods. If you are a consumer, this choice does not deprive you of mandatory protections of the country in which you habitually reside. Courts have jurisdiction only as permitted by applicable law.

PALURO is neither willing nor obliged to participate in dispute resolution proceedings before a consumer arbitration board.

If one provision is or becomes invalid, the remaining provisions continue to apply. The invalid provision is replaced only by the applicable statutory rule, not by an invented waiver of consumer rights.

Questions about these terms can be sent to paul@paluro.de or raised by telephone at +49 176 41071591.
