Terms of Use
The agreement that governs your use of True Scanner. Please read it carefully before downloading or using the app.
These Terms of Use ("Terms") govern your access to and use of True Scanner ("True Scanner", the "app"), provided by TechSmart LLC ("we", "us", or "our"). By downloading, installing, or using the app, you confirm that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by these Terms and by our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, please do not download or use the app.
1. Acceptance of Terms
By accessing or using True Scanner, you accept these Terms in full and agree to comply with all applicable laws and regulations. These Terms form a binding agreement between you and TechSmart LLC. If you are using the app on behalf of an organization, you represent that you have the authority to bind that organization to these Terms. If you are using the app, you must be of the age of majority in your jurisdiction, or have the consent of a parent or legal guardian. If you do not accept these Terms, you may not use the app.
2. Licence to Use the App
Subject to your compliance with these Terms, we grant you a personal, limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, and revocable licence to download and use True Scanner on Apple devices that you own or control, for your own personal, non-commercial use. This licence does not transfer any ownership rights to you.
You agree that you will not, and will not permit any third party to:
- copy, modify, adapt, translate, or create derivative works of the app, except as expressly permitted by law;
- reverse engineer, decompile, disassemble, or otherwise attempt to derive the source code of the app;
- rent, lease, lend, sell, sublicense, redistribute, or otherwise commercially exploit the app or any part of it;
- remove, obscure, or alter any proprietary notices, labels, or marks in the app, including any watermark applied to exports;
- interfere with or circumvent any security, licensing, or usage-limit features of the app;
- use the app for any unlawful purpose or in any way that violates these Terms or the rights of others.
All rights not expressly granted to you are reserved by us and our licensors.
3. True Scanner PRO Subscription
True Scanner is free to download. True Scanner PRO is an optional, auto-renewable subscription that removes ads and the export watermark and unlocks unlimited scanning and sharing (the free plan is limited to one document share per day). Subscriptions are offered on a recurring basis (for example, monthly and yearly plans) and are purchased and managed through your Apple ID, with all payments processed by Apple via the App Store (StoreKit). We never receive or store your card or payment details.
Auto-renewable subscription disclosure
- True Scanner PRO is an auto-renewable subscription that unlocks PRO features, removes ads, and removes the export watermark.
- When a free trial is offered, it automatically converts to a paid subscription unless you cancel at least 24 hours before the trial ends.
- Payment is charged to your Apple ID account upon confirmation of purchase.
- The subscription automatically renews unless auto-renew is turned off at least 24 hours before the end of the current period.
- Your Apple ID account is charged for renewal within 24 hours before the end of the current period, at the rate of your selected plan.
- Price and available plans are shown in the app and may vary by region and currency.
- You can manage or cancel your subscription anytime in Settings ▸ Apple ID ▸ Subscriptions.
- No refund is given for the unused portion of a paid period once a trial has converted; refunds, where applicable, are handled by Apple in accordance with its policies.
By subscribing to True Scanner PRO, you acknowledge and agree to the terms set out above. The subscription will continue and renew automatically until you cancel it. If you have started a free trial, the trial will automatically convert into a paid subscription at the standard price for your selected plan unless you cancel at least 24 hours before the trial period ends. To avoid being charged for the next period, you must turn off auto-renewal at least 24 hours before the current period ends; otherwise your Apple ID will be charged within 24 hours before the renewal date. Cancelling stops future renewals but does not retroactively refund the current period, and you will retain PRO access until the end of the period you have already paid for.
Because purchases are processed by Apple, your use of subscriptions is also subject to Apple's standard terms. Please review Apple's standard End User Licence Agreement (EULA) at apple.com/legal/.../stdeula.
4. Your Documents & Scans
True Scanner lets you turn paper documents and images from your own device into digital documents. You are solely responsible for the material you scan or import and for the documents you create from it.
You represent and warrant that you own, or have all necessary rights, licences, and permissions to, any material you scan or import into the app, and that scanning, storing, recognizing, signing, exporting, and sharing it does not infringe the copyright, trademark, privacy, confidentiality, or other rights of any third party. You agree to use the app only for lawful purposes and not to scan or distribute material you are not permitted to reproduce or share.
Your scans, recognized text, signatures, and the documents you create are processed and stored on your device (and, if you enable it, backed up to your own iCloud account). We do not claim ownership of them and do not upload or access their contents. You are responsible for maintaining your own backups; while iCloud sync can help, we are not responsible for any loss of documents.
5. Acceptable Use
You agree to use True Scanner responsibly and lawfully. You must not use the app to:
- infringe the intellectual property, privacy, or confidentiality rights of any person or organization;
- scan, create, transmit, or distribute illegal, fraudulent, forged, obscene, defamatory, or infringing content;
- forge signatures or alter documents in order to deceive or defraud any person;
- harass, threaten, or abuse any person;
- interfere with, disrupt, or attempt to gain unauthorized access to the app, our servers, or any systems or networks connected to the service;
- introduce viruses, malware, or any other harmful code.
You are solely responsible for the content you scan, create, or share with the app and for ensuring that your use complies with all applicable laws and the rules of any platform or service where you use it.
6. Intellectual Property
The app, including its software, presentation and arrangement of content, user interface, design, graphics, text, and other content (excluding content you create), is owned by us or our licensors and is protected by copyright, trademark, and other intellectual property laws. Nothing in these Terms grants you any right to use our trademarks, logos, or brand features without our prior written permission.
The documents you create from your own material with the app are yours to use for your personal purposes, subject to the rights in the underlying material and to the laws that apply where you use it. We do not claim ownership of the documents you create.
7. Third-Party Services & Ads
True Scanner relies on services provided by Apple, Google, and Meta. We use Apple for purchases and subscriptions (StoreKit) and for optional iCloud sync, Google Firebase for analytics, crash reporting, and remote configuration, and Google AdMob and Meta Audience Network to serve advertising to free users. Advertising uses Apple's App Tracking Transparency framework; the IDFA is used for personalized ads only if you allow tracking, otherwise non-personalized ads are shown.
These third-party services are governed by their own terms and privacy policies, over which we have no control. We are not responsible for the availability, content, accuracy, or practices of any third-party service or advertisement, and your interactions with third parties are solely between you and them.
8. Disclaimer of Warranties
The app is provided on an "as is" and "as available" basis, without warranties of any kind, whether express, implied, or statutory, including without limitation any implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement. We do not warrant that the app will be uninterrupted, error-free, or secure, or that defects will be corrected.
Text recognition (OCR), edge detection, filters, and other automated features are provided on a best-effort basis and may be inaccurate or incomplete. Recognized text and processed scans may contain errors, and you are responsible for reviewing and verifying any document before relying on it — especially for legal, financial, medical, or official purposes. We do not guarantee that any particular document, format, or file will be accurately reproduced or supported on every device or version of iOS.
9. Limitation of Liability
To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, in no event will TechSmart LLC, its affiliates, officers, employees, or licensors be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or for any loss of profits, data, documents, goodwill, or other intangible losses arising out of or related to your use of, or inability to use, the app.
To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, our total aggregate liability for all claims relating to the app shall not exceed the amount you actually paid to us for the app in the twelve (12) months immediately preceding the event giving rise to the claim. Some jurisdictions do not allow certain limitations of liability, so some of the above limitations may not apply to you; nothing in these Terms limits liability that cannot be limited by law.
10. Indemnification
You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless TechSmart LLC and its affiliates, officers, employees, and licensors from and against any claims, liabilities, damages, losses, and expenses, including reasonable legal fees, arising out of or in any way connected with your use or misuse of the app, the material you scan or import or the documents you create, your violation of these Terms, your violation of any applicable law, or your infringement of the rights of any third party.
11. Termination
These Terms remain in effect while you use the app. We may suspend or terminate your access to the app, in whole or in part, at any time and without prior notice if you breach these Terms or if we are required to do so by law. Upon termination, the licence granted to you under Section 2 ends immediately, and you must stop using and delete the app. Sections that by their nature should survive termination, including those relating to intellectual property, disclaimers, limitation of liability, indemnification, and governing law, will continue to apply. Termination does not affect any subscription terms administered by Apple, which you can manage in Settings ▸ Apple ID ▸ Subscriptions.
12. Changes to These Terms
We may update these Terms from time to time to reflect changes to the app, our practices, or applicable law. When we make material changes, we will update the "Last Updated" date at the top of this page and, where appropriate, provide additional notice. Your continued use of the app after the changes take effect constitutes your acceptance of the revised Terms. If you do not agree to the updated Terms, you should stop using the app.
13. Governing Law
These Terms are governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of Portugal, without regard to its conflict-of-law rules. You agree that any dispute arising out of or relating to these Terms or the app shall be submitted to the competent courts of Lisbon, Portugal. This choice of law and forum does not deprive you of the protection afforded by mandatory consumer protection provisions of the country in which you reside.
