10. Disclaimer of Warranties
THE APPS ARE PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE" WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE AND NON-INFRINGEMENT. We do not warrant that the apps will operate uninterrupted or error-free, that defects will be corrected, or that the apps are free from viruses. Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion of implied warranties, so the above may not apply to you to the extent prohibited by law.
Nothing in this section limits warranties or remedies that may not be excluded under mandatory EU consumer protection law (Directive (EU) 2019/770) or the Spanish General Law for the Defence of Consumers and Users (Royal Legislative Decree 1/2007).
11. Limitation of Liability
To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, Novaku shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential or punitive damages arising out of or relating to your use of any NOVAKU app.
In any event, Novaku's total cumulative liability to you shall not exceed:
- For Pro subscribers: the total amount you paid to Novaku in the twelve (12) months immediately preceding the claim.
- For free-tier users: one hundred euros (€100).
EU residents: our liability is limited only to the extent permitted by mandatory consumer protection law in your country of residence. Nothing in this section excludes liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence, for fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation, or for any liability that cannot be excluded by law.
12. Indemnification
You agree to defend, indemnify and hold Novaku harmless from and against any claim, liability, damage, loss or expense (including reasonable legal fees) arising out of or related to:

Where possible we will explain the reason in-app or by email.
14. Notice-and-Takedown

We may release updates to the apps at any time. Some updates may add or remove features. We do not guarantee that any specific feature will remain available, except where mandatory consumer law requires us to do so.
16. Privacy
Our Privacy Policy describes how we process personal data. By using the apps you acknowledge that you have read it. Acceptance of the Privacy Policy is a prerequisite to using Fan Mosaic.
17. Third-Party Services
The apps interact with third-party services (Google, Supabase, RevenueCat, Sentry, Telegram). Your use of those services is subject to their own terms and privacy policies, listed in the Privacy Policy. We are not responsible for third-party services' acts or omissions outside our processor agreements.
18. Governing Law and Jurisdiction
These Terms are governed by the laws of Spain, without regard to conflict-of-law principles. Subject to mandatory EU consumer protection law, any dispute shall be submitted to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of Pamplona (Navarra), Spain.
EU consumers may, in addition, lodge their complaint directly with us at novakuapp@gmail.com. The European Commission's Online Dispute Resolution platform was discontinued on 20 July 2025 and is no longer available.
If you are located outside the European Union, you and Novaku agree that any dispute shall be resolved by binding individual arbitration administered under the rules of the Madrid Court of Arbitration, with the seat of arbitration in Madrid, Spain, in the English language, except where mandatory local consumer law provides otherwise.
19. Severability and Entire Agreement
If any provision of these Terms is found unenforceable, the remainder remains in full force. These Terms, together with the Privacy Policy, constitute the entire agreement between you and Novaku regarding the apps.
20. Changes to These Terms
These Terms are versioned in lockstep with the Privacy Policy. Material changes are announced in-app at least 30 days before they take effect; for free-tier users continued use after the effective date constitutes acceptance. Pro subscribers may cancel before the effective date if they do not accept the new Terms.
