Terms of Service

These Terms govern your use of Apuls. By creating an account or using the Service you agree to be bound by them. They form a legal contract between you and Apuls LLC — read carefully and contact [email protected] if anything's unclear.

1. About these Terms

These Terms of Service (the "Terms") are a legal agreement between you ("you," "your") and Apuls LLC ("Apuls," "we," "us," "our"). They govern your access to and use of the Apuls mobile applications (iOS and Android), the Apuls website at apuls.app, our backend services, and any related materials we provide (collectively, the "Service").

By creating an account, downloading or using the Service, or otherwise indicating your acceptance, you agree to be bound by these Terms and our Privacy Policy, which is incorporated by reference. If you do not agree, do not use the Service.

If you are using the Service on behalf of an entity (e.g., a business or organization), you represent that you have authority to bind that entity to these Terms.

2. The Service

Apuls is a fleet-management application designed for hosts on the Turo car-sharing platform. The Service provides:

• A daily-tasks dashboard showing reservation, vehicle, and operational status across your fleet.
• Optional Gmail integration that parses Turo notification emails into structured reservation data.
• CSV import of Turo earnings exports.
• Per-vehicle revenue, expense, and service tracking.
• Optional notification channels (push, Telegram, Pushover).

3. Independence from Turo

Apuls is an independent third-party application. It is not owned by, operated by, sponsored by, endorsed by, or otherwise affiliated with Turo, Inc., its subsidiaries, or its affiliates. Apuls does not access Turo's API, scrape Turo's website, transmit your Turo credentials to any party, or act on your behalf within Turo's platform. The Service operates entirely on data you provide (CSV uploads) or that you authorize us to read on your behalf (Gmail notifications you've already received).

"Turo" and the Turo logo are trademarks of Turo, Inc., used in this Service descriptively (nominative fair use) solely to identify the platform our users operate on. Section 13 below describes our trademark practices in more detail.

4. Eligibility & account

To use the Service, you must:

• Be at least 18 years of age and capable of forming a binding contract under the laws of your jurisdiction.
• Provide accurate, complete, and current information when creating an account, and keep that information updated.
• Comply with all applicable laws and regulations, including Turo's own Terms of Service (which govern your relationship with Turo).

You are responsible for safeguarding your account credentials and for all activity that occurs under your account. Notify [email protected] immediately of any unauthorized access. We are not liable for losses arising from your failure to keep credentials confidential.

We may refuse, suspend, or terminate any account at our sole discretion if we believe it has been used in violation of these Terms, applicable law, or third-party rights.

5. License grant

Subject to your compliance with these Terms, Apuls grants you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable, revocable license to access and use the Service for your personal or internal business purposes (specifically, managing your Turo fleet operations).

This license does not grant you any right to:

• Resell, sublicense, lease, or otherwise commercially redistribute the Service.
• Reverse-engineer, decompile, disassemble, or attempt to derive the source code of the Service, except to the extent expressly permitted by applicable law.
• Modify, adapt, translate, or create derivative works based on the Service.
• Remove, obscure, or alter any proprietary notices.
• Use the Service to build a competing product.

6. Acceptable use

You agree not to:

• Use the Service for any unlawful purpose or in violation of Turo's terms of service or any applicable third-party terms.
• Submit false, misleading, or maliciously crafted data (including spoofed emails, falsified CSV data, or manipulated reservation IDs).
• Interfere with or disrupt the Service, its servers, or networks connected to it (e.g., denial-of-service, automated scraping at unreasonable rates, attempting to bypass rate limits).
• Probe, scan, or test the vulnerability of the Service or any connected system without prior written authorization. Good-faith security research is welcomed under our coordinated disclosure policy at [email protected].
• Bypass, disable, or otherwise circumvent any security or authentication mechanism.
• Use the Service to transmit malware, spam, or harmful code.
• Impersonate any person or entity, or misrepresent your affiliation with any person or entity.
• Harass, threaten, or abuse other users or our staff.
• Collect or harvest personal data of other users.
• Use automated means (bots, scripts, scrapers) to access the Service in a manner that adversely affects performance for other users.

7. Beta period & pricing

The Service is currently in beta and offered free of charge. Beta features may be incomplete, experimental, or unstable. By using the Service during beta, you accept that:

• Features may change or be removed without notice.
• Data loss is unlikely but possible — keep your own backups of important data.
• We make no warranties about beta functionality (see Section 14).

We may introduce paid plans in the future. If we do, we will give you at least 30 days' written notice (in-app and via email) before any charge applies, and you'll have the option to discontinue use of the Service without further obligation. Any feature you use during the free beta will remain available throughout the announced beta period.

All purchases made through the Apple App Store or Google Play, if and when introduced, are subject to those stores' billing terms (Apple's standard EULA / Google Play's terms of service). Refunds are governed by those stores' refund policies.

8. Service availability

We aim for high availability but do not guarantee that the Service will be uninterrupted, error-free, secure, or free from delays. We reserve the right to modify, suspend, or discontinue any feature, in whole or in part, with reasonable notice when feasible. We are not liable for any modification, suspension, or discontinuation, except as required by mandatory law.

Scheduled maintenance, security patches, and emergency repairs may temporarily affect availability. We endeavor to perform planned maintenance during low-traffic windows and to announce it in-app where feasible.

9. Your data & content

You retain all rights, title, and interest in the personal data you provide to us and any content you submit through the Service ("Your Data"). By using the Service, you grant Apuls a worldwide, royalty-free, non-exclusive, time-limited license to process, store, display, and reproduce Your Data solely as necessary to operate, maintain, secure, and improve the Service for you. This license terminates when Your Data is deleted from our systems.

You represent and warrant that:

• You have all rights necessary to provide Your Data to us, including any authorizations required from third parties (e.g., your guests, whose names appear in reservation data).
• Your use of the Service to process Your Data complies with applicable law (including data-protection laws).
• Your Data does not infringe any third-party right (intellectual property, privacy, publicity, or contractual right).

Our Privacy Policy describes in detail what data we process, why, how it's stored, and how to exercise your rights.

10. Third-party services

The Service integrates with third-party services to provide its features. These integrations are governed by the respective third party's terms and privacy policies, including:

• Google Terms of Service and Privacy Policy — when you connect Gmail.
• Apple Media Services Terms — for in-app purchases on iOS.
• Google Play Terms of Service — for purchases on Android.
• Telegram Terms of Service — if you opt into Telegram notifications.
• Pushover Terms of Service — if you opt into Pushover notifications.

We are not responsible for the availability, content, accuracy, or practices of these third-party services. Your use of them is at your own risk.

11. Feedback

If you provide us with suggestions, ideas, bug reports, or other feedback ("Feedback"), you grant us a perpetual, irrevocable, worldwide, royalty-free, sublicensable license to use, reproduce, modify, and incorporate the Feedback into the Service or other products without obligation or compensation to you. We will not identify you publicly as the source of any Feedback without your consent.

12. Intellectual property

The Service — including all software, source code, designs, copy, branding, layouts, graphics, and documentation — is the exclusive property of Apuls LLC and is protected by copyright, trademark, trade-secret, and other intellectual-property laws. We reserve all rights not expressly granted to you in these Terms.

The Service incorporates open-source software components, each licensed under its own terms. A complete list of components and their licenses is available in-app under Settings → About → Acknowledgments. Nothing in these Terms restricts your rights under any applicable open-source license.

13. Trademarks & nominative use

"Apuls" and the Apuls logo are trademarks of Apuls LLC. You may not use these marks without our prior written permission, except for nominative reference (e.g., reviews, news articles, fan sites) consistent with applicable trademark law.

Third-party marks referenced in the Service (including but not limited to Turo®, Google®, Apple®, Android™) are the property of their respective owners and used only for descriptive purposes (nominative fair use). No endorsement or affiliation is implied.

14. Disclaimers

THE SERVICE IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE," WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, WHETHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED, STATUTORY, OR OTHERWISE. TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, APULS DISCLAIMS ALL WARRANTIES, INCLUDING THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, AND ANY WARRANTIES ARISING OUT OF COURSE OF DEALING OR USAGE OF TRADE.

WE DO NOT WARRANT THAT (A) THE SERVICE WILL MEET YOUR REQUIREMENTS, (B) IT WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, TIMELY, SECURE, OR ERROR-FREE, (C) RESERVATION DATA, REVENUE CALCULATIONS, OR NOTIFICATIONS WILL BE ACCURATE OR DELIVERED ON TIME, OR (D) DEFECTS WILL BE CORRECTED. RESERVATION AND REVENUE DATA IS DERIVED FROM EMAILS AND CSV IMPORTS, WHICH MAY CONTAIN ERRORS OR BE DELAYED. APULS IS A SUPPORTING TOOL — YOU REMAIN RESPONSIBLE FOR YOUR OWN BUSINESS DECISIONS.

Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion of certain warranties; in those jurisdictions, the above exclusions apply only to the maximum extent permitted by law, and you may have additional statutory rights.

15. Limitation of liability

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, IN NO EVENT WILL APULS LLC, ITS DIRECTORS, OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES, AGENTS, OR AFFILIATES BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR FOR ANY LOSS OF PROFITS, REVENUE, DATA, USE, GOODWILL, OR OTHER INTANGIBLE LOSSES, ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH YOUR ACCESS TO OR USE OF (OR INABILITY TO ACCESS OR USE) THE SERVICE, REGARDLESS OF THE LEGAL THEORY OR WHETHER WE HAVE BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

IN ANY EVENT, OUR TOTAL CUMULATIVE LIABILITY FOR ALL CLAIMS ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THESE TERMS OR THE SERVICE WILL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF (A) THE AMOUNTS YOU HAVE PAID US IN THE 12 MONTHS PRECEDING THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM, OR (B) ONE HUNDRED U.S. DOLLARS (US$100).

Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages; in those jurisdictions, our liability is limited to the maximum extent permitted by law.

16. Indemnification

You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Apuls LLC, its directors, officers, employees, agents, and affiliates from and against any claims, damages, losses, liabilities, costs, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising out of or in connection with:

• Your access to or use of the Service.
• Your violation of these Terms.
• Your violation of any third-party right, including intellectual-property, privacy, or contractual rights (including Turo's Terms of Service).
• Any content or data you submit through the Service.

We reserve the right, at our own expense, to assume the exclusive defense and control of any matter otherwise subject to indemnification by you, in which case you agree to cooperate with our defense.

17. Termination

By you: You may terminate your account at any time via Settings → Account → Delete account, by visiting apuls.app/delete-account.html, or by emailing [email protected] from your registered address.

By us: We may suspend or terminate your account, with or without cause and with or without notice, if we reasonably believe you have violated these Terms, applicable law, or a third party's rights, or if continuing to provide the Service to you would expose us to material legal or operational risk.

Upon termination: your license to use the Service ends; your account and associated data will be deleted in accordance with our retention policy; and Sections 9 (your data — surviving rights), 11 (feedback), 12 (IP), 14 (disclaimers), 15 (liability), 16 (indemnification), 19 (disputes), 20 (governing law), and 21 (general) will survive termination.

18. Force majeure

We will not be liable for any failure or delay in performance caused by circumstances beyond our reasonable control, including acts of God, natural disasters, war, terrorism, riots, embargoes, acts of civil or military authorities, fire, floods, accidents, network or telecommunications failures, internet outages, denial-of-service attacks, pandemics, or governmental actions.

19. Disputes & binding arbitration

Please read this section carefully — it affects your legal rights.

Informal resolution first

Before filing a formal claim, you agree to try to resolve the dispute informally by contacting [email protected]. We'll respond within 30 days. Most disputes are resolved through this informal process.

Binding arbitration

If informal resolution fails, you and Apuls agree that any dispute, claim, or controversy arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Service will be resolved by binding arbitration on an individual basis, administered by JAMS or another mutually agreed arbitration provider, under that provider's then-current consumer arbitration rules. The arbitration will be conducted in English and may be conducted remotely. Judgment on the award may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction.

Class-action waiver

YOU AND APULS AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN YOUR OR ITS INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS, COLLECTIVE, REPRESENTATIVE, OR CONSOLIDATED PROCEEDING. UNLESS BOTH YOU AND APULS AGREE OTHERWISE, THE ARBITRATOR MAY NOT CONSOLIDATE OR JOIN MORE THAN ONE PERSON'S CLAIMS.

30-day opt-out

You may opt out of this arbitration agreement by sending written notice to [email protected] within 30 days of first accepting these Terms. Your notice must include your full name, the email address registered to your account, and the statement "I opt out of the Apuls arbitration provision." Opting out does not affect any other provision of these Terms.

Exceptions

Notwithstanding the foregoing, either party may bring (a) an individual action in small-claims court, or (b) an action seeking injunctive or equitable relief in a court of competent jurisdiction to address infringement of intellectual-property rights.

If any portion of this arbitration provision is found to be unenforceable, the remainder will continue in full force, except that if the class-action waiver is found unenforceable, the entire arbitration provision will be null and void.

20. Governing law & jurisdiction

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Delaware, United States, without regard to its conflict-of-laws principles. Subject to Section 19 (Disputes & arbitration), any dispute that proceeds in court rather than arbitration will be brought exclusively in the state or federal courts located in Delaware, and you consent to personal jurisdiction in those courts.

The U.N. Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods does not apply to these Terms.

Nothing in this section affects mandatory consumer-protection rights you may have under the laws of your country of residence.

21. General provisions

Severability

If any provision of these Terms is held invalid or unenforceable, that provision will be modified to the minimum extent necessary to make it enforceable, or — if no such modification is possible — severed, and the remaining provisions will continue in full force.

No waiver

Our failure to enforce any provision of these Terms is not a waiver of that provision or any other.

Assignment

You may not assign or transfer these Terms or your account without our prior written consent. We may assign these Terms in connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of substantially all our assets, with notice to you.

Entire agreement

These Terms (together with the Privacy Policy and any in-app notices we publish) constitute the entire agreement between you and Apuls regarding the Service and supersede all prior or contemporaneous agreements, communications, and proposals on this subject.

Notices

We may give notice by email to the address registered to your account, by in-app banner, or by posting on apuls.app. Notice from you to us must be sent to [email protected].

Relationship of the parties

You and Apuls are independent contractors. These Terms do not create any partnership, joint venture, employment, or agency relationship.

Third-party beneficiaries

These Terms confer no rights on any person or entity other than the parties.

22. Changes to these Terms

We may update these Terms as the Service evolves, applicable laws change, or our business needs require. We will notify you of material changes at least 14 days before they take effect, via email and an in-app banner. Non-material changes (typo fixes, structural reorganization, clarifications that don't alter your rights or our obligations) take effect immediately upon posting. Your continued use of the Service after the effective date of any changes constitutes acceptance of the updated Terms.
