Terms & Conditions

These terms and conditions apply to the CrispTone app for mobile devices (the "Application"), operated by Berner (the "Service Provider").

By downloading or using the Application, you agree to these Terms and Conditions. Please read them carefully before using the Application.

About the Application

CrispTone is a tool that lets you create ringtones from audio files, videos and microphone recordings stored on your own device, and save decorative contact images to your photo library. The Application works entirely offline: it has no user accounts, no content sharing between users, no in-app purchases and no advertising. Nothing you create in the Application is transmitted to the Service Provider or to any third party.

License to Use the Application

Subject to your compliance with these Terms, the Service Provider grants you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to install and use the Application on Apple-branded devices that you own or control, for personal, non-commercial purposes. You may not reproduce, distribute, modify, create derivative works from, reverse engineer, decompile or disassemble the Application, except to the extent expressly permitted by applicable law.

Intellectual Property

The Service Provider retains all intellectual property rights in the Application, including its code, design, logos and branding. Nothing in these Terms grants you any right to use the Service Provider's trademarks or branding. You agree not to remove, alter or obscure any proprietary notices in the Application.

Your Content and Responsibility for Rights

The Application processes only files that you choose to import and recordings that you make. All such content remains on your device and remains yours; the Service Provider claims no rights to it and never receives it.

You are solely responsible for ensuring that you have the necessary rights to the audio and video files you use to create ringtones. Ringtones you create are intended for your personal use on your own device. Using copyrighted material you do not own or have no licence to use may violate the rights of third parties; such use is your sole responsibility. Content protected by digital rights management (DRM), such as songs from streaming catalogs, is not supported by the Application and cannot be used.

Acceptable Use

You agree to use the Application only for lawful purposes and in accordance with these Terms. You may not use the Application to infringe intellectual property rights of others or to violate any applicable law.

Fees and Changes to the Application

The Application is currently provided free of charge, without advertising or in-app purchases. The Service Provider reserves the right to modify the Application or to introduce paid features in the future; any charges would be clearly communicated to you in advance and would never apply retroactively.

Updates and Termination

The Service Provider may release updates to the Application from time to time and does not guarantee that the Application will always be compatible with every version of the operating system. The Service Provider may also cease providing the Application at any time. Because the Application works entirely offline, discontinuation of support would not affect ringtones you have already created and exported — they remain on your device and in the locations you saved them to.

The Service Provider may terminate this license if you materially breach these Terms. Upon termination, you must cease using the Application and delete it from your devices. Ringtones and images you have already exported remain yours.

Device Responsibility

It is your responsibility to maintain the security of your mobile device and keep it in working condition. The Service Provider advises against jailbreaking or rooting your device, as this may compromise its security and cause the Application to malfunction.

Disclaimer and Limitation of Liability

The Application is provided "as is" without warranties of any kind, to the fullest extent permitted by law. The Service Provider does not warrant that the Application will be uninterrupted or error-free.

To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Service Provider shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential or punitive damages, including lost profits or data loss. As the Application is provided free of charge, the Service Provider's total liability for any claim is limited to the minimum amount permitted by applicable law.

However, the Service Provider retains full liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence, fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation, and any other liability that cannot be excluded or limited under applicable law. Nothing in these Terms limits any rights you have under applicable consumer protection laws that cannot be lawfully excluded.

Indemnification

To the fullest extent permitted by law, you agree to indemnify the Service Provider against claims arising directly from your breach of these Terms, including your use of source material to which you did not hold the necessary rights. This clause does not apply to claims arising from the Service Provider's own negligence or violation of applicable law, and is limited to the maximum extent permitted in jurisdictions where consumer indemnification is restricted.

Eligibility

You must be legally permitted to use the Application in your jurisdiction. If you are below the age of digital consent in your jurisdiction, a parent or legal guardian must review and accept these Terms on your behalf.

Governing Law and Jurisdiction

These Terms are governed by the laws of the jurisdiction in which the Service Provider is established, excluding conflict of law rules, except to the extent mandatory consumer protection laws provide otherwise. Any dispute arising out of these Terms will be brought before the courts that have jurisdiction under applicable law.

Severability

If any provision of these Terms is held invalid or unenforceable, it shall be modified to the minimum extent necessary to make it valid, and the remaining provisions shall remain in full force.

Entire Agreement

These Terms, together with the Privacy Policy, constitute the entire agreement between you and the Service Provider concerning the Application.

Changes to These Terms

The Service Provider may update these Terms from time to time. Changes will be posted on this page with an updated effective date. Previous versions are available upon request at berner120@gmail.com.

These terms and conditions are effective as of 2026-08-04.
