Terms of Use

Acceptance

By downloading, installing, or using FolksKeeper, you agree to these Terms of Use. If you do not agree, please do not use the app. These terms are between you and BrightBench LLC.

Not medical advice

FolksKeeper is an organizer, not medical advice. It is not a medical device and does not give clinical advice, check drug interactions, or diagnose anything. FolksKeeper is not for use in an emergency — if you have a medical emergency, call 911 immediately. Always follow the guidance of licensed medical professionals rather than anything recorded in FolksKeeper.

Your responsibility for what you enter

You are responsible for the accuracy of the information you and your Care Circle enter into FolksKeeper, and for having the right to record and share information about the person you care for, including any necessary permission from that person or their legal representative. BrightBench LLC does not verify, review, or correct the content you enter.

Care circle sharing

When you invite others into a Care Recipient's Care Circle, you are choosing to share that recipient's information with them through Apple's iCloud sharing. You are responsible for deciding who to invite. The Organizer can remove a Member or delete the care recipient entirely; a Member can leave a circle at any time.

Subscriptions and free trial

FolksKeeper offers an optional auto-renewing subscription, "FolksKeeper Family":

Purchases are also governed by Apple's Standard End User License Agreement: https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/.

Acceptable use

You agree not to use FolksKeeper to store or share unlawful content, to impersonate another person, to attempt to disrupt or reverse engineer the app, or to use it in any way that violates applicable law.

Intellectual property

FolksKeeper's design, code, and branding are owned by BrightBench LLC. You retain ownership of the information you enter into the app; you're simply granting the people you invite into a Care Circle the ability to see and add to that information through iCloud sharing.

Disclaimer of warranties

FolksKeeper is provided "as is" and "as available," without warranties of any kind, whether express or implied, including warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, or non-infringement. BrightBench LLC does not warrant that the app will be uninterrupted, error-free, or that it will meet your requirements.

Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, BrightBench LLC will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages arising from your use of, or inability to use, FolksKeeper, including any reliance on information stored in or generated by the app.

Indemnity

You agree to indemnify and hold BrightBench LLC harmless from any claims, damages, or expenses arising from your use of FolksKeeper or your violation of these terms.

Governing law and venue

These terms are governed by the laws of the State of Nebraska, USA, without regard to its conflict of laws principles. Any dispute arising from these terms or your use of FolksKeeper will be resolved in the state or federal courts located in Nebraska.

Changes

We may update these terms from time to time. If we do, we will update the effective date at the top of this page. Continuing to use FolksKeeper after a change means you accept the updated terms.
