Banora Pin Terms of Service

Version 1 · Effective 13 September 2026

1. Provider and scope

These terms govern the use of the iOS app Banora Pin. Provider: Ala Eddine Bannour, Schulstraße 20, 13347 Berlin, Germany. Contact: hi@banora.dev. The terms apply to every use of the app. The contract language is English. The Privacy Policy at banora.dev/privacy informs you about the processing of personal data.

2. The service

Banora Pin lets you create notes and pin a note to the iPhone Lock Screen or widget. Notes are stored on your device. iCloud backup (on by default, can be switched off in Settings) mirrors notes to your private iCloud account. A pinned note may be visible to others who can see your Lock Screen. The content displayed on the Lock Screen is selected solely by the user. Pinned notes are designed to keep important information visible on your Lock Screen and easily accessible within the app.

3. Free use

Use without a subscription includes three free notes.

4. Account

Accounts are optional and created via Sign in with Apple; there are no passwords. One Apple ID corresponds to one account. Keep your device and Apple ID secure; actions taken through your signed-in session count as yours.

5. Banora Pin Pro

Pro removes the free-note limit. Purchases are handled through Apple and are subject to Apple's terms. Billing, renewals and refunds are handled by Apple.

6. Right of withdrawal

Any statutory withdrawal rights relating to subscriptions purchased through Apple are exercised through Apple's applicable processes.

7. Acceptance and changes

Acceptance is required before first use. Changes become binding only after renewed acceptance. Export and deletion remain available even if changed terms are declined.

8. Your data

The app is local-first. Export and backup features are provided. The user is responsible for maintaining appropriate backups. Failure to use backups may result in permanent loss of data. Deletion permanently removes stored data.

9. Permitted use

Users must not use the app unlawfully or interfere with technical protections. Users retain ownership of their notes.

10. Availability and support

The app's core features (writing, keeping and pinning notes) run on your device and work without a network connection. We endeavour to provide the backend features (account, subscription verification, terms-version check) without interruption; maintenance and events outside our control can cause downtime. Support: hi@banora.dev.

11. Conformity and updates

The statutory rules on digital products apply, including statutory rights in case of defects. Updates, including security updates, are provided as required by applicable law via the App Store.

12. Liability

We are liable without limitation for intent, gross negligence, personal injury, applicable product liability obligations and expressly given guarantees. For simple negligence, we are liable only for the breach of essential contractual obligations, meaning obligations whose fulfilment makes the proper performance of the contract possible in the first place and on whose fulfilment you may regularly rely, and only up to the damage that is typical for this kind of contract and was foreseeable at its conclusion. These limitations also apply to legal representatives and vicarious agents.

13. Term and termination

The usage contract runs for an indefinite period. Users may end it at any time by deleting their data or the app. We may terminate for good cause or discontinue the service with reasonable notice.

14. Final provisions

German law applies. Consumers retain mandatory protections of their country of residence where applicable. We are neither obliged nor willing to participate in dispute-resolution proceedings before a consumer arbitration board. If you are a minor, the conclusion of this contract requires the consent of your legal guardian. If a provision is invalid, the remainder remains effective.
