Terms of Service

1 Eligibility

You may use BBH only if you are at least 18 years old (or the higher minimum age required in your jurisdiction to enter into a binding contract). The subject matter of the app — addiction recovery and behaviour change — makes it unsuitable for children, and we do not intend it for anyone under 18.

2 Licence to use the app

Subject to your compliance with these Terms, we grant you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable licence to install and use BBH on Android devices you personally own or control, for your personal, non-commercial use. Your download and use are also subject to the Google Play Terms of Service; where those terms conflict with ours, the applicable Google Play terms prevail only to the extent required.

All rights not expressly granted to you are reserved.

3 Acceptable use

When using the app, you agree not to:

• use the app in any way that violates applicable laws or regulations;
• reverse-engineer, decompile, disassemble, or attempt to derive the source code of the app, except to the extent such restriction is prohibited by applicable law;
• copy, modify, redistribute, sell, sub-licence, or create derivative works from any part of the app without our prior written permission;
• remove, obscure, or alter any copyright, trademark, or proprietary notice in the app;
• attempt to bypass any security or access-control mechanism in the app;
• use the app to transmit viruses, malware, or other harmful code to any device or system.

4 No medical, therapeutic, or professional advice

BBH provides streak timers, reminders, motivational content, a daily-challenge library, breathing exercises, and journaling features. This content is for general informational and motivational purposes only. It does not constitute medical, psychological, nutritional, legal, financial, or any other form of professional advice.

You are responsible for your own decisions and actions. If you are considering changes to medication, substance use, therapy, or treatment plans, consult a qualified professional first. Stopping certain substances abruptly (for example, alcohol, benzodiazepines, or opioids) can be dangerous without medical supervision.

In any emergency — including suicidal thoughts, self-harm, overdose, or danger to yourself or others — contact local emergency services or a crisis hotline immediately. Do not rely on the app.

5 Your content

Any content you create inside BBH — habits, journal entries, mood notes, custom habit names, backup files — is and remains yours. Because this content is stored only on your device (see our Privacy Policy), we never receive a copy and acquire no rights in it.

You are solely responsible for backing up any data that matters to you. Use the in-app “Export backup” feature to save a local copy; we cannot restore data that has been lost, deleted, or corrupted on your device.

6 Intellectual property

The app, including its source code, visual design, icons, illustrations, text content, quotations library, sound assets, and the overall “look and feel”, is owned by us or our licensors and is protected by copyright and other intellectual-property laws. The names “BBH”, “Break Bad Habits”, and “Zydeno”, together with associated logos, are our trademarks. Nothing in these Terms transfers any intellectual-property right to you, except for the limited licence in Section 2.

7 Pricing and in-app purchases

At the effective date of these Terms, BBH is offered as a free app with no in-app purchases, subscriptions, or advertising. If we introduce paid features in the future, they will be processed exclusively through Google Play billing. We will never directly collect or store your payment-card details. Refunds for Google Play purchases are handled according to Google’s refund policy.

8 Updates and changes to the app

We may release updates, bug fixes, and new features from time to time. Some updates may be required for continued use of the app; others may be optional. We may also modify, suspend, or discontinue parts of the app at any time. We are not liable to you for any such modification, suspension, or discontinuation, except as expressly required by applicable law.

9 Disclaimer of warranties

The app is provided “as is” and “as available”, without warranties of any kind, express or implied, to the fullest extent permitted by law.

Without limiting the foregoing, we expressly disclaim all warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement, accuracy, reliability, availability, and uninterrupted operation. We do not warrant that the app is error-free, that reminders will always be delivered on time, that streak calculations will be uninterrupted across device time-zone changes or clock adjustments, or that any particular recovery or behaviour-change outcome will result from using it.

Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion of certain implied warranties. In those jurisdictions, the above exclusions may not apply in full to you, and you may have additional statutory rights.

10 Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, in no event will we, our affiliates, contractors, or licensors be liable for:

• any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary, or punitive damages;
• loss of profits, revenue, data, goodwill, or business opportunity;
• any damages arising from your reliance on information or content in the app, including motivational messages, quotes, challenges, or timelines;
• any health outcome, relapse, or change in personal circumstances attributed to use or non-use of the app.

Our aggregate liability to you for any claim arising out of or relating to these Terms or your use of the app shall not exceed the greater of (a) the amount you paid us for the app in the 12 months preceding the claim, or (b) ten euros (€10).

Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits any liability that cannot be excluded or limited under applicable law, including liability for death or personal injury caused by our negligence, or for fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation.

11 Indemnification

You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold us and our affiliates harmless from and against any claims, damages, liabilities, costs, and expenses (including reasonable legal fees) arising from (a) your use of the app in breach of these Terms; (b) your violation of any applicable law or regulation; or (c) your infringement of any third-party right in connection with your use of the app.

12 Term and termination

These Terms apply while you have BBH installed or are otherwise using it. You may terminate this agreement at any time by uninstalling the app. We may suspend or terminate your licence to use the app immediately, with or without notice, if you materially breach these Terms, if continued distribution becomes unlawful, or if we discontinue the app.

On termination, your right to use the app ends immediately. Provisions of these Terms that by their nature are intended to survive — including intellectual property, disclaimers, limitation of liability, indemnification, and governing law — will survive termination.

13 Google Play

BBH is distributed through the Google Play Store. Your installation and use of the app are also subject to the Google Play Terms of Service and the policies of Google LLC. We are the sole party responsible for the app and its content; Google is not a party to these Terms.

14 Governing law and disputes

These Terms are governed by the laws of the jurisdiction in which the operator of Zydeno Studio is established, without regard to its conflict-of-laws rules. Where you are a consumer resident in the European Union, the United Kingdom, or another jurisdiction that grants you mandatory protections, those protections continue to apply and are not affected by this choice of law.

Any dispute arising out of or relating to these Terms shall first be addressed through good-faith negotiation via [email protected]. Unresolved disputes are subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the competent courts at our principal place of business, except where mandatory consumer-protection law grants you the right to bring proceedings elsewhere (for example, your country of residence). EU consumers may also access the European Commission’s Online Dispute Resolution platform at ec.europa.eu/consumers/odr.

15 Changes to these Terms

We may revise these Terms from time to time. When we do, we will update the “Effective” date at the top of this page. Material changes will be announced within the app and on this page at least 14 days before they take effect. Your continued use of the app after changes take effect constitutes acceptance of the revised Terms. If you do not agree, please uninstall the app.

16 Miscellaneous

• Entire agreement. These Terms, together with our Privacy Policy, constitute the entire agreement between you and us regarding the app and supersede any prior agreements on this subject.
• Severability. If any provision is held unenforceable, the remaining provisions remain in full force and effect.
• No waiver. Our failure to enforce any right or provision is not a waiver of that right or provision.
• Assignment. You may not assign these Terms without our prior written consent. We may assign these Terms in whole or in part, including in connection with a merger or acquisition.
• Force majeure. We are not liable for any failure or delay caused by events beyond our reasonable control, including acts of God, war, pandemics, or third-party service outages.
