Terms of Service - SmileCat: Aligner Tracker

1. Acceptance of These Terms

By downloading or using SmileCat: Aligner Tracker (the "App"), published by First Point ("we", "us"), you agree to these Terms of Service. If you do not agree, please do not use the App. Apple's standard Licensed Application End User License Agreement also applies to App Store downloads, and the Google Play Terms of Service apply to Google Play downloads.

2. What the App Does

SmileCat helps you keep track of how long you wear your clear aligners each day, when to switch to the next tray, and when to use chewies. It records the moments you tell it your aligners went in or came out, shows your daily and weekly progress, reminds you, lets you keep progress photos, and produces a wear report you can share with your orthodontist. A cat mascot, coins and cosmetic items exist to make the routine easier to keep. Everything the App records is based on what you enter; it has no sensor that can tell whether the aligners are in.

3. Not Medical Advice

SmileCat is a habit and record-keeping tool. It is not a medical device, does not diagnose, treat or prevent any condition, and does not provide medical or dental advice. Your orthodontist's instructions about wear time, tray changes and appointments always take precedence over anything the App shows, suggests or reminds you about.

Wear-time totals, streaks, goal marks and switch dates are calculated from your own entries and from the settings you choose, and may differ from what actually happened. Short breaks may be counted toward the daily goal for scoring purposes. Reports are provided to support a conversation with your clinician, not to replace their judgement. Consult your orthodontist or dentist with any concern about your treatment.

4. License

We grant you a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to use the App on devices that you own or control, in accordance with the terms of the store you downloaded it from. You may not copy, modify, reverse-engineer or redistribute the App, or the mascot artwork and other content in it, except where the law expressly permits.

5. Privacy

How we handle data is described in the SmileCat Privacy Policy, which is part of these terms. In short: your treatment data stays on your phone, reports and feedback leave only when you send them, anonymous diagnostics can be switched off, and purchases are handled by the store.

6. SmileCat Plus, Subscriptions and Purchases

The timer, the schedule, reminders, chewies and the CSV report are free. SmileCat Plus is an optional upgrade that adds the full treatment history in reports, unlimited progress photos and comparisons, a PDF report and extra items for the mascot. Plus is sold as an auto-renewing weekly subscription, an auto-renewing yearly subscription that may start with a free trial, or a one-time lifetime purchase. Cosmetic item packs may also be offered as one-time purchases.

Payment is charged to your Apple App Store or Google Play account when you confirm the purchase. A subscription renews automatically at the price shown in the App unless it is cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Where a free trial is offered, any unused portion is forfeited when you buy a subscription. You can manage or cancel a subscription in your store account settings; deleting the App does not cancel it.

Billing, receipts and refunds are handled entirely by the store under its terms; we never receive your payment details. You can restore previous purchases on a new device from Settings. Prices may vary by country and may change for future periods; you will be told before a change applies to you.

7. Coins and Virtual Items

Coins are earned by using the App, or by choosing to watch an optional rewarded video, and can be spent only on cosmetic items for the mascot inside the App. Coins and items have no monetary value, cannot be bought with money, sold, transferred or exchanged for cash, and exist only on the device where they were earned. We may adjust how coins are earned, what items cost, or which items are available. Deleting your data or the App removes your coins and items.

8. Acceptable Use

Use the App only for your own aligner treatment and in accordance with applicable law. Do not attempt to interfere with the App, the stores or our feedback service, and do not send abusive or unlawful content through the feedback form. Reminders are a convenience, not a guarantee; you remain responsible for following your treatment plan.

9. Updates and Availability

We may update, change or discontinue features at any time. Updates may be required for continued use. We do not guarantee that the App will always be available, uninterrupted or error-free. Because your data is stored only on your device, keep a device backup if you want to preserve your history.

10. Disclaimer of Warranties

The App is provided "as is" and "as available" without warranties of any kind, express or implied, including merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose and non-infringement, to the maximum extent permitted by law.

11. Limitation of Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, First Point shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special or consequential damages, for loss of data, or for any outcome of your orthodontic treatment, arising from your use of or reliance on the App. Nothing in these terms limits liability that cannot be limited under applicable law, including mandatory consumer protections in your country of residence.

12. Termination

You can stop using the App at any time by deleting it; an active subscription must be cancelled separately in your store account. We may stop providing the App or any feature with reasonable notice where practicable. Sections that by their nature should survive, such as intellectual property and liability, survive termination.

13. Governing Law

These terms are governed by the laws of the Republic of Türkiye, without prejudice to mandatory consumer protection rules of your place of residence. Disputes are subject to the courts and enforcement offices of Türkiye.

14. Changes and Contact

We may revise these terms from time to time; the date below reflects the latest revision and material changes will be announced in the App. Questions are welcome at contact@firstpoint.com.tr.
