Became Terms of Service

These Terms of Service (“Terms”) govern your use of the Became iOS application and its related milestone-creation and AI services (collectively, the “Service”). “We,” “us,” and “our” refer to the operator of the Service.

By downloading or using the Service, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use the Service. Our Privacy Policy explains how information is handled.

1) Eligibility

You must be at least 18 years old to use Became and comply with applicable law. You must be legally able to agree to these Terms or, if you have not reached the age of legal majority where you live, have a parent or guardian agree on your behalf and approve any purchase.

2) The Service

Became helps you record, present, and revisit important achievements, turning points, and life events, using your own writing and photos or optional AI text and illustrations.

• No Became account is required.
• AI requests require an internet connection and remote AI services. Manual writing and access to locally saved milestones do not require AI processing.
• AI text and images may be inaccurate or unsuitable. Review and edit results before saving or sharing.

3) Free access and Became Premium

Free access includes a limited cumulative number of published milestones, with manual writing, your own photos, and the available layouts, plus one-time allowances for AI writing and illustrations.

Became Premium includes unlimited published milestones and monthly allowances for AI writing and illustrations. Monthly and yearly plans have the same benefits. AI allowances refresh monthly from the original subscription purchase date and do not roll over.

The applicable publication limits and AI allowances are shown in the app. The free publication limit is cumulative, including Premium publications and imported publication history. Deletion does not restore places; drafts and edits do not use a new place.

A successful AI generation counts against its relevant allowance when the result is saved. Failed or cancelled requests do not count; deletion does not return AI uses. Device storage and reasonable service limits still apply.

After Premium ends, existing milestones remain available to view, edit, share, and export. New milestones and AI requests are subject to any remaining free allowances.

We may adjust limits or included features for future billing periods where permitted by law. Material changes will be communicated when required.

4) Subscriptions and payments

Monthly and yearly subscriptions are offered as auto-renewing in-app purchases through Apple.

• Apple charges your Apple Account when you confirm a purchase.
• The purchase screen displays the localized price and billing period before confirmation.
• A subscription renews automatically unless you cancel at least 24 hours before the current billing period ends. Apple may charge for renewal within 24 hours before the end of that period.
• You can manage or cancel a subscription in your Apple Account subscription settings. Cancellation normally takes effect at the end of the paid period.
• You can restore an eligible purchase using “Restore purchases” on the subscription screen.
• Apple handles billing and refunds, subject to Apple’s policies and your rights under applicable law.

Removing the app or ending access to the Service does not cancel a subscription. Restoring a subscription does not restore your local milestone collection.

5) Your content and AI results

“Your Content” means the notes, descriptions, photos, and other material you use or submit through the Service. You retain any rights you have in Your Content. You grant us a limited, non-exclusive license to process Your Content only as reasonably necessary to provide the features you request and operate the Service consistently with our Privacy Policy.

You must have the rights and permissions to use, submit, and share Your Content, including authorization to disclose any personal, sensitive, or confidential information it contains.

We do not claim ownership of AI results. Results may not be unique; copyright protection and freedom from third-party rights are not guaranteed.

Any use or sharing of Your Content and AI results must comply with applicable law and third-party rights.

6) Acceptable use

You may not use the Service to:

• violate any law or another person’s intellectual-property, privacy, publicity, or other rights;
• exploit or sexualize minors;
• create unlawful threats, harassment, hateful abuse, or instructions intended to facilitate serious harm;
• impersonate another person or use AI results deceptively or fraudulently;
• introduce malware, interfere with the Service, or gain unauthorized access;
• bypass subscriptions, usage limits, rate limits, or other access controls;
• make automated or excessive requests that burden the Service; or
• resell, scrape, reverse engineer, or commercially exploit the Service itself except where applicable law expressly permits it.

We may block a request or suspend access when reasonably necessary to enforce these Terms, comply with law, or protect users, third parties, and the Service.

7) Intellectual property

The Became app, software, design, branding, and non-user materials are owned by the operator of Became or its licensors and are protected by applicable law. These Terms allow you to use the Service for your personal use.

8) Local storage and third-party services

Your milestones, drafts, and images are stored on your device. Became does not currently provide automatic milestone sync between devices. Files may be included in device backups according to your settings, and you can export and import backups in the app. Keep exported files private and secure. Imported photos may be resized and compressed for use in the app.

Deletion, uninstalling, or losing access to your device may cause data loss. We cannot restore your local collection for you, and backup recovery is not guaranteed.

The Service relies on third-party services for functions such as cloud infrastructure, AI results, logging, and payment processing. Third-party services may be governed by their own applicable terms and privacy policies. We remain responsible for our own obligations under applicable law.

9) Service availability and changes

The Service may be temporarily unavailable. We do not guarantee uninterrupted access.

We may update the Service or temporarily suspend it for maintenance, security, or legal requirements. If a paid service is discontinued, we will provide any notice or remedy required by law and Apple’s applicable procedures.

10) Termination

You may stop using the Service at any time. We may suspend or terminate access when reasonably necessary because of a material or repeated breach of these Terms, unlawful use, a security risk, or discontinuation of the Service.

11) Service expectations and consumer rights

Became provides tools for personal milestone records. AI results may be inaccurate and should not be relied on as professional advice or proof of an achievement.

To the extent permitted by law, we are not responsible for indirect or consequential losses that were not reasonably foreseeable when you agreed to these Terms.

Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits any consumer right, remedy, warranty, or liability that cannot lawfully be excluded or limited.

12) Apple App Store terms

If you obtained Became through the App Store, Apple’s Standard Licensed Application End User License Agreement governs your license to the app unless Apple presents a different applicable license. These Terms govern the related Service to the extent consistent with that license and mandatory law.

13) Governing law and miscellaneous terms

These Terms are subject to applicable law, including mandatory consumer protections where you live.

If any provision is unenforceable, it will be limited or removed only to the extent necessary, and the remaining provisions will continue. A failure to enforce a provision is not a waiver.

14) Changes to these Terms

We may update these Terms to reflect changes in the Service or law. We will post the revised Terms and provide additional notice when required. Changes apply prospectively. If you do not agree to updated Terms, stop using the Service and cancel any future subscription renewal.
