These Terms constitute a legally binding agreement between you (“User,” “you,” or “your”) and Chronicle (“we,” “us,” or “our”), operated by Cankat Saraç.

The App is free, requires no account, and runs fully offline. All of your progress is stored on your own device.

3. ELIGIBILITY

Chronicle is rated for general audiences (App Store 9+ / PEGI 7 equivalent), reflecting brief, factual, text-only references to historical events such as wars. By using the App, you represent and warrant that:

If you are under the age of majority in your jurisdiction, you confirm that you have parental or guardian consent to use the App.

4. NO ACCOUNT REQUIRED

Chronicle does not require you to create an account, sign in, or provide personal information. You may use all features of the App anonymously. There is no online service, leaderboard, or social component in this version of the App.

7. PRICE — THE APP IS FREE

Chronicle is provided free of charge. There are no in-app purchases, no subscriptions, and no advertising. We do not collect payment information. We reserve the right to introduce optional paid features in a future version; if we do, the applicable terms and pricing will be presented to you before any purchase, and your continued use of free features will remain free.

8. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS

8.1 Our Content

The App, its design, brand, name, logo, typography, code, copy, the curated selection and written descriptions of historical events, and all other original content are owned by Chronicle and Cankat Saraç and are protected by copyright, trademark, and other intellectual-property laws. Underlying historical facts (such as the dates of public events) are not themselves owned by anyone; our particular selection, wording, and presentation of them are.

8.2 Limited License to You

We grant you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to use the App for personal, non-commercial purposes, in accordance with these Terms.

8.3 Your Data

The statistics and progress generated by your play are stored only on your device. Because that data lives only on your device, we do not claim any license to it. If you voluntarily share information with us (for example, by sending it in a support email), you grant us a limited, royalty-free license to use it solely to respond to you.

8.4 Feedback

Any feedback, suggestions, or ideas you provide may be used by us without compensation or attribution.

9. DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTIES

THE APP IS PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE” WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO:

We do not guarantee that the App will meet your requirements, that any results obtained will be accurate or reliable, or that any defects will be corrected.

10. EDUCATIONAL CONTENT — NOT AUTHORITATIVE OR PROFESSIONAL ADVICE

Chronicle is an educational entertainment game. The historical dates, facts, and descriptions in the App are provided for general learning and enjoyment only and are not a substitute for authoritative scholarship, academic citation, or professional advice. Historical dating is sometimes contested, traditional, or approximate, and the App necessarily simplifies complex events into short summaries. While we curate the content for accuracy, we do not warrant that every date or detail is free from error or that it reflects every scholarly viewpoint. Do not rely on the App for academic, professional, legal, or any other consequential purpose. If you believe a specific entry is inaccurate, we welcome corrections at cankatsarac@gmail.com.

11. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, CHRONICLE, CANKAT SARAÇ, AND ANY OF OUR AFFILIATES, OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES, OR AGENTS SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR:

OUR TOTAL AGGREGATE LIABILITY TO YOU FOR ALL CLAIMS ARISING FROM OR RELATING TO THESE TERMS OR THE APP SHALL NOT EXCEED ONE HUNDRED U.S. DOLLARS ($100).

Some jurisdictions do not allow certain limitations of liability, so some of these limitations may not apply to you. Nothing in these Terms limits liability that cannot be limited under applicable law (for example, liability for death or personal injury caused by gross negligence, or for fraud).

12. INDEMNIFICATION

You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Chronicle, Cankat Saraç, and any of our affiliates, officers, directors, employees, and agents from any claims, liabilities, damages, losses, costs, or expenses (including reasonable legal fees) arising from or relating to:

13.3 Effect of Termination

Upon termination, your right to use the App ceases. Data stored on your device remains with you until you uninstall the App. Sections that by their nature survive termination remain in effect (including Sections 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, and 16).

We will notify you of material changes by updating the “Last Updated” date at the top of these Terms and, where appropriate, through in-app notifications. Continued use of the App after the effective date of updated Terms constitutes acceptance. If you do not agree with updated Terms, uninstall the App.
