Terms of Service
Last updated: 4 May 2026
The Terms of Service (“ToS”) form a binding agreement between Faliane Ltd. ("we," "us," or "our") and you ("User," "you," or "your") and govern your access to and use of our mobile application “QR & Barcode Scanner App” (the “App”) and any related services (collectively, the “Services”). The App enables users to scan, decode, generate, store, and manage QR codes and barcodes, and to access content embedded within such codes, including links to third-party websites or services.
These ToS incorporate by reference all other notices, policies, disclaimers, and additional ToS contained on the Services, including our Privacy Policy. In the event of any inconsistency between these ToS and any other terms or policies, the terms of the specific policy shall prevail.
You may terminate these ToS at any time by ceasing use of the Services, cancelling subscription pursuant to these ToS and deleting the App. We may suspend or terminate your access to the Services, in whole or in part, at any time for legitimate reasons, including but not limited to violation of these ToS, legal requirements, or misuse of the Services.
By accessing or using the Services, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by these ToS.
Important Information:
Your use of the App must comply with the applicable terms of the Apple App Store.
Amendments
We reserve the right to modify these ToS at our sole discretion at any time. The most current version of the ToS will always be posted on this page. You waive any right to receive specific notice of each change, except as in cases of material changes of these ToS and/or unless otherwise provided in the Privacy Policy with respect to changes in the methods and scope of collecting and processing identifiable information. Changes will become effective upon the earlier of: (1) your acceptance of the modified ToS; (2) your use of the Services with knowledge of the modified ToS; or (3) thirty (30) days after the publication of the modified ToS. Continued use of the Services after changes have been posted constitutes acceptance of those changes.
Eligibility
To use our Services, you must:
(i) be of legal age in your jurisdiction and capable of entering into legally binding contracts under applicable law;
(ii) not have access to our Services that has been previously suspended or removed from the Services due to a violation of these ToS or legal requirements; and
(iii) agree that your use of the Services will comply with these ToS and all applicable laws and regulations.
Subscriptions and Refunds
Trial Subscriptions: We may offer a trial subscription to our Service (“trial”), which can be free or available for a nominal fee. Unless you cancel the trial before its expiration, you will be automatically charged the price indicated on the payment screen or in the Apple payment pop-up for the selected subscription period. If a trial is offered, it will be indicated on the price screen before you proceed to checkout. If no trial is mentioned, your subscription will be purchased without any trial period. We may also periodically offer introductory discounts that renew at the standard, non-discounted rate, along with other promotional offers that may be of interest to you.
Fees: Subject to applicable laws, we reserve the right to change subscription fees at any time. We will provide reasonable notice of any such changes by posting the new prices on or through the app and/or by sending you an email notification or through other prominent means. If you do not agree to the new fees, you must cancel your subscription before the change takes effect.
Payments: once you confirm your intention to purchase a subscription on the App Store, Apple, Inc. and its subcontractors will process your payments, and you may cancel your subscription at any time by turning off auto-renewal in your Apple ID account settings. To avoid being charged for the next period, ensure you cancel your subscription at least 24 hours before the current subscription period ends.
Subscription renewals and cancellation: Your subscription will automatically renew at the end of each subscription term for the same duration and at the cost of the chosen subscription option, unless you cancel at least 24 hours before the end of the current subscription period. Payment will be charged to the payment method you provided at the time of purchase upon confirmation (after you confirm by accepting the subscription terms on the Apple pop-up screen). You authorize us to charge the applicable subscription fees to the payment method you have provided. If you cancel the automatic renewal within the last 24 hours of the subscription, the cancellation will take effect at the end of the new subscription period.
PLEASE NOTE THAT DELETING THE APP DOES NOT CANCEL YOUR SUBSCRIPTIONS. YOU MUST CANCEL THE AUTOMATIC SUBSCRIPTION RENEWAL TO AVOID FURTHER CHARGES.
To cancel a subscription purchased on the App Store, you need to turn off auto-renewal in your Apple ID account setting, as provided in the first paragraph of this section. For more details on managing and canceling subscriptions, please visit Apple's support page - https://support.apple.com/en-us/118428. Upon cancellation, the Service will remain accessible to you until the end of the current subscription term.
Refunds: Except as provided in section “Service Limitations and Updates” of these ToS, all charges for in-app purchases are nonrefundable, and there are no refunds or credits for partially used periods, unless the mandatory laws applicable in your jurisdiction provide for refunds. If you are a consumer residing in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, or Switzerland, you may have a statutory right to withdraw from a digital service contract within fourteen (14) days from the date of purchase. However, by purchasing and using the Services, you expressly consent to the immediate performance of the Services and acknowledge that you may lose your right of withdrawal once the Services have been fully performed. For subscriptions purchased via Apple’s App Store, all refunds are handled by Apple in accordance with its applicable policies.

The arbitration will take place in the state of your residence, or another mutually agreed location, or through video conferencing, at the discretion of the arbitrator.
(iii) Arbitration Location and Procedure: Unless mutually agreed otherwise by you and us, the arbitration will take place in the State of Nevada, unless the arbitrator designates an alternative location if the selected venue proves to be unduly burdensome to either party.
