Terms of use

1. Scope

These terms govern the use of the ReptiCare app for iPhone, iPad, Mac and Android, offered by Marlon Schick, Switzerland. By installing and using it you accept them.

2. Scope of services

ReptiCare is a tool for privately documenting the keeping of reptiles. The basic version allows two animals to be managed. ReptiCare Pro unlocks further features: Among them unlimited animals, food and breeding management and CSV export.

3. Purchasing ReptiCare Pro

Pro is a one-off in-app purchase with no subscription. The contracting party for payment is Apple. The purchase applies to devices using the same Apple ID. Refunds are governed by Apple’s terms; direct such requests to Apple.

In the Android version, the purchase runs through Google Play. The contracting party for payment is then Google. The purchase applies to the Google account you bought it with. Refunds are governed by Google Play’s terms.

The scope of Pro may be extended. Features already purchased remain; there is no entitlement to any particular future features.

4. Your data and your responsibility

Your entries sit on your device and, if you use iCloud, additionally in your private iCloud storage; on Android, with backup switched on, in your Google account. We have no access to it and cannot restore lost data. Backing up is your own responsibility. CSV and PDF export help when changing device and for archiving.

5. No veterinary or legal advice

The app’s prompts (on weight loss, refused food or enclosure dimensions) are simple rules of thumb. They replace neither a veterinary assessment nor binding information on animal welfare requirements.

This applies in particular to the ordinance check and the legal notes it holds: these are non-binding orientation drawn from publicly accessible sources, with no warranty as to completeness, currency or applicability to an individual case. Binding information comes solely from the competent authority: Usually the cantonal veterinary office. You are responsible for keeping your animals properly and for complying with the applicable rules.

5a. Consulting

Paid consultations can be requested through the consulting page. The enquiry itself is free and without obligation. A contract only comes about once a quote setting out the service and price exists and you accept it: No costs arise before that.

The advice is based on the information you provide. It replaces neither a veterinary examination nor binding information from the authorities. Responsibility for husbandry, acquisition and compliance remains yours.

6. Liability

The app is provided “as is”. Uninterrupted and error-free availability is not warranted. Liability for slight negligence is excluded so far as the law permits. Mandatory statutory claims, in particular for personal injury, remain unaffected.

7. Rights of use

You receive a simple, non-transferable right to use the app privately. Reverse engineering, reproduction or passing on the app is not permitted beyond the statutory limits. The content you enter belongs to you.

8. Changes

These terms may be amended, for instance when new features arrive. The current version is always on this page.

9. Applicable law

Swiss law applies. The place of jurisdiction is, so far as the law permits, the provider’s domicile. Mandatory consumer protection provisions of your country of residence remain reserved.
