TankCue Terms of Use
Established: July 30, 2026 · Effective: July 30, 2026
These Terms of Use (“Terms”) govern the use of the TankCue mobile application (“App”) provided by Hinomaru Labs (“Operator”). By selecting an acceptance control, if presented, or by using the App after these Terms have been made available, you agree to be bound by these Terms.
The acquisition and use of the App, including in-app purchases, may also be subject to the terms and policies of Apple, Google, or another applicable third party.
1. Eligibility
You may use the App only if you have the legal capacity to agree to these Terms. If you are a minor, you must obtain the consent of a parent or legal guardian before using the App or making an in-app purchase. You are responsible for obtaining and maintaining, at your own expense, the device, network connection, marketplace account, and other environment necessary to use the App.
2. License and Intellectual Property
Subject to your compliance with these Terms, the Operator grants you a limited, revocable, non-exclusive, non-transferable, and non-sublicensable license to use the App solely for your personal and non-commercial purposes.
All rights not expressly granted under these Terms are reserved by the Operator or the applicable rightsholder. All copyrights, trademarks, and other intellectual property rights in the App and its content belong to the Operator or the applicable rightsholder, and no such rights are transferred to you.
3. Aquarium Records, Local Data, and Your Responsibility
The App is a personal record-keeping tool for freshwater aquarium care. Water-quality values, reminders, charts, care suggestions, and other information displayed by the App are for reference only. They are not veterinary, medical, scientific, water-safety, or animal-health advice, and the App does not diagnose disease or determine whether water conditions are safe or unsafe.
You are responsible for deciding how to care for an aquarium, its livestock, and its water conditions. If you have concerns about animal health, water conditions, equipment, or safety, seek advice from an appropriately qualified professional or another reliable source.
The App stores your aquarium, care, and water-quality records on your device. The App does not provide an account, cloud synchronization, backup, shared access, or data recovery service. You are responsible for using CSV export or another method you choose to retain records you want to keep. Deleting the App, clearing app data, replacing, losing, or damaging a device, or an operating-system or marketplace action may make records unavailable or irrecoverable. The Operator does not guarantee that any record, export, reminder, or feature will always be available, complete, accurate, or recoverable.
4. Prohibited Conduct
You must not:
- violate any applicable law, public order, or these Terms;
- infringe the rights or interests of the Operator or any third party;
- copy, modify, adapt, distribute, sell, lease, reproduce, or publicly transmit the App without authorization;
- reverse engineer, decompile, or disassemble the App, except to the extent expressly permitted by applicable law;
- bypass, disable, interfere with, or misuse advertising, purchase verification, licensing, access-control, or security functions;
- gain or attempt to gain unauthorized access, impose an excessive load, introduce malicious code, or otherwise interfere with the App or related systems;
- remove or alter any copyright, trademark, or other proprietary notice;
- resell the App or provide a service using the App without the Operator’s prior written permission; or
- engage in any other conduct that the Operator determines to be inappropriate.
5. Advertising, In-App Purchases, and Third-Party Services
The Operator may display third-party advertisements in locations, forms, methods, and frequencies determined by the Operator. The display of an advertisement does not constitute the Operator’s endorsement, control, or guarantee of the advertiser, the advertised product or service, or any linked third-party service.
The App may offer a one-time, non-consumable in-app purchase called “Remove Ads.” Subject to the purchase being completed and recognized by the applicable marketplace, this product removes eligible advertisements in the App and includes unlimited aquariums and all-history water-quality charts. Features, availability, eligibility, and pricing may change as permitted by these Terms and applicable law.
In-app purchases are processed under the terms, policies, and systems of Apple, Google, or the applicable marketplace. The Operator is not liable for outages, interruptions, specification changes, account status, purchase-restoration availability, or other circumstances outside the Operator’s control relating to a marketplace or third-party service.
6. Privacy
The handling of information in connection with the App is governed by the Hinomaru Labs Privacy Policy.
7. Changes, Suspension, and Termination of the App
The Operator may, at its discretion, add, change, restrict, suspend, or discontinue any feature, specification, design, advertisement, paid product, price, supported environment, availability, delivery method, or support relating to the App.
The Operator may suspend or terminate all or part of the App without prior notice due to maintenance, incidents, security concerns, third-party service issues, legal or regulatory requirements, marketplace requirements, or any other reason the Operator considers necessary. The Operator does not guarantee the continued availability, updating, or support of the App.
8. Disclaimer of Warranties
To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the App is provided on an “AS IS” and “AS AVAILABLE” basis. The Operator makes no express or implied warranty regarding the App, including its accuracy, completeness, usefulness, safety, reliability, fitness for a particular purpose, availability, freedom from errors, non-infringement, compatibility with any device or operating system, or continued provision.
9. Limitation of Liability
The Operator is not liable for any damage not attributable to the Operator, including damage arising from your breach of these Terms, improper use, aquarium-care decisions, a device or operating system, a network, a marketplace, an advertisement, or any third-party service.
The Operator is not liable for damage caused by force majeure, natural disaster, power or network failure, cyberattack, third-party conduct, changes in law, governmental action, or any other circumstance beyond the Operator’s reasonable control.
To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the Operator is not liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damage, loss of profits, loss of opportunity, loss of records, loss relating to an aquarium or livestock, or comparable loss.
If the Operator is liable to you, except in the case of the Operator’s willful misconduct or gross negligence, that liability is limited to actual, direct, and ordinary damage. If you purchased a paid product in the App, the Operator’s aggregate liability is further limited to the amount you actually paid in relation to the App.
Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits liability that cannot lawfully be excluded or limited.
10. Indemnification
If your intentional or negligent violation of these Terms, unlawful conduct, or infringement of a third party’s rights causes damage to the Operator, you must compensate the Operator for that damage, including reasonable attorneys’ fees.
11. Changes to These Terms
The Operator may amend these Terms as necessary. Amended Terms apply when posted on the Operator’s website, or on any later effective date specified by the Operator.
12. Transfer of Rights and Obligations
You may not assign, transfer, pledge, or otherwise dispose of your rights or obligations under these Terms without the Operator’s prior written consent. The Operator may assign or transfer all or part of its rights and obligations relating to the App or these Terms without your consent.
13. Severability and No Waiver
If any provision of these Terms is held invalid or unenforceable, the remaining provisions remain in effect. The Operator’s failure or delay in exercising any right does not constitute a waiver of that right.
14. Governing Law and Jurisdiction
These Terms are governed by the laws of Japan. Any dispute arising from or relating to the App or these Terms is subject to the exclusive jurisdiction, as the court of first instance, of the district court or summary court having jurisdiction over the Operator’s address at the time the action is filed.
15. Contact
Questions concerning these Terms or the App may be submitted through the official Hinomaru Labs contact form.
