Sipwise - Terms
Effective date: October 9, 2026
These Terms & Conditions ("Terms") govern your download, access to and use of the Sipwise – Alcohol Tracker mobile application, including its widgets, notifications, AI features and any related services (together, the "App"). The App is developed and provided by Furkan Kaya ("Developer", "we", "us" or "our").
By downloading, installing or using the App, you confirm that you have read, understood and agree to be bound by these Terms and by our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, do not use the App and delete it from your device.
1. Eligibility
You may use the App only if you are at least 18 years old and have reached the legal drinking age in the country or region where you live, whichever is higher. By using the App you represent and warrant that you meet these requirements. The App is not intended for, and must not be used by, minors.
2. What Sipwise is — and what it is not
Sipwise is a self-tracking and habit-awareness tool. It helps you log drinks, set a personal weekly limit, mark alcohol-free days and see estimates such as standard drinks, money spent or saved and calories.
Sipwise is not a medical device and does not provide medical, psychological, nutritional, legal or professional advice. In particular:
- The App does not diagnose, treat, cure, monitor or prevent any disease or condition, including alcohol use disorder or alcohol dependence.
- Standard-drink conversions, alcohol-by-volume (ABV) values, volumes, calories, prices, savings, streaks and trends are estimates based on typical values, the information you enter and general guidelines. They may be inaccurate or incomplete for your drink, your country or your body.
- The App does not calculate blood alcohol concentration (BAC) and must never be used to decide whether you are fit to drive, operate machinery, work, swim, take medication, care for others or perform any activity that requires full attention. If you have been drinking, do not drive.
- Default limits, suggestions and goals in the App are general and are not a recommendation that any amount of alcohol is safe for you. Alcohol may be unsafe for you if you are pregnant or trying to conceive, take medication, have a health condition or are under the legal drinking age.
Always seek the advice of a qualified healthcare professional with any question you have about alcohol, your health or reducing or stopping drinking. Stopping drinking suddenly after heavy or long-term use can be dangerous; talk to a doctor before you do. Never disregard professional advice or delay seeking it because of something you saw in the App.
In an emergency, or if you are thinking about harming yourself, contact your local emergency number or a crisis helpline immediately. The App is not a crisis or emergency service and is not monitored by any person.
3. AI features
Some features use artificial intelligence, such as recognizing a drink from a photo ("AI photo log") and the weekly summary and questions answered by the AI coach ("AI coach"). You understand and agree that:
- AI output is generated automatically, may be incorrect, incomplete, out of date or inappropriate, and is not reviewed by a human before you see it.
- AI output is for general information and motivation only and is not medical or professional advice. You are responsible for checking and, if needed, correcting any value the AI suggests before saving it.
- You must not submit photos or text that contain other people's personal data without their permission, or any content that is unlawful, harmful, offensive or infringes anyone's rights.
- We may limit, change or suspend AI features at any time, including daily usage limits, to protect the service from abuse.
4. Subscriptions, free trials and payments
The App is free to download. Some features ("Sipwise Pro") require a paid auto-renewing subscription purchased through Apple's App Store.
- Billing. Payment is charged to your Apple ID account when you confirm the purchase. Prices are shown in the App before purchase and may vary by country and change over time.
- Auto-renewal. Your subscription renews automatically at the end of each period at the then-current price unless you turn off auto-renew at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Your account will be charged for renewal within 24 hours before the end of the current period.
- Free trials. If a free trial is offered, it is shown on the purchase screen together with its length. When the trial ends, your subscription starts automatically and you are charged unless you cancel at least 24 hours before the trial ends. Any unused part of a free trial is forfeited when you buy a subscription. Trials are limited to one per Apple ID, as determined by Apple.
- Introductory and special offers are available only to eligible users, for a limited time and on the terms shown at the time of the offer.
- Managing and cancelling. You can manage or cancel your subscription at any time in your device's Settings → [your name] → Subscriptions. Deleting the App does not cancel your subscription. Cancellation takes effect at the end of the current billing period, and you keep access to Pro until then.
- Refunds. All purchases are processed by Apple. We do not have access to your payment details and cannot issue refunds ourselves. Refund requests must be made to Apple at https://reportaproblem.apple.com and are subject to Apple's policies. Except where required by applicable law, payments are non-refundable and there are no refunds or credits for partial periods.
- Restoring purchases. You can restore an active subscription on a new device signed in with the same Apple ID using "Restore" in the App.
We may change the features included in Pro, add new paid features or change prices. Price changes for existing subscriptions are handled by Apple and notified to you as required by Apple and applicable law.
5. Your data and your device
Your drink logs, settings and history are stored locally on your device. We do not offer cloud backup or accounts, so if you delete the App, use "Delete all data", reset or lose your device, your data may be permanently lost and we cannot restore it. You are responsible for keeping your device secure, including its passcode. Please read our Privacy Policy for details on how data is handled.
6. License and acceptable use
Subject to these Terms, we grant you a personal, limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to download and use the App on Apple devices that you own or control, as permitted by the Usage Rules in Apple's Media Services Terms and Conditions.
You agree not to:
- copy, modify, translate, adapt or create derivative works of the App;
- reverse engineer, decompile, disassemble or try to extract the source code, models, prompts or underlying ideas of the App, except where this restriction is prohibited by law;
- circumvent or interfere with subscriptions, access controls, usage limits or security features;
- use bots, scripts or automated means to access the App or its AI features, or send excessive requests;
- use the App for any unlawful, harmful or fraudulent purpose, or in a way that could damage, disable or overload our services;
- sell, rent, lease, sublicense or otherwise commercially exploit the App.
7. Intellectual property
The App and all of its content, including its design, text, graphics, illustrations, icons, logos, software, and the "Sipwise" name, are owned by the Developer or its licensors and are protected by copyright, trademark and other laws. Nothing in these Terms transfers any ownership rights to you. Any feedback or suggestions you send us may be used by us freely and without any obligation to you.
8. Third-party services
The App relies on third-party services, including Apple (App Store, in-app purchases, notifications and widgets), Adapty (subscription management), Google Firebase Analytics (usage analytics) and Google's Gemini API (AI features) used through our server. Your use of those services may be subject to their own terms and privacy policies. We are not responsible for third-party services, content or websites, including helpline directories linked from the App, and their availability or accuracy.
9. Changes, availability and termination
We may update, change, suspend or discontinue the App or any feature, in whole or in part, at any time and without liability to you. We do not guarantee that the App will always be available, uninterrupted, error-free, compatible with your device or operating system version, or that any data will be kept. You may need to install updates to keep using the App.
We may suspend or terminate your license immediately, without notice, if you breach these Terms. You may stop using the App at any time by deleting it (and cancelling any subscription through Apple). On termination, the license granted to you ends and you must stop using the App. Sections that by their nature should survive termination will survive, including sections 2, 3, 7, 10, 11, 12 and 14.
10. Disclaimer of warranties
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, THE APP AND ALL CONTENT, ESTIMATES AND AI OUTPUT ARE PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE", WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, WHETHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, ACCURACY, QUIET ENJOYMENT AND NON-INFRINGEMENT. WE DO NOT WARRANT THAT THE APP WILL MEET YOUR REQUIREMENTS OR HELP YOU ACHIEVE ANY PARTICULAR RESULT, INCLUDING REDUCING OR STOPPING DRINKING. YOU USE THE APP AT YOUR OWN RISK AND YOU ARE SOLELY RESPONSIBLE FOR YOUR DECISIONS ABOUT ALCOHOL AND YOUR HEALTH.
11. Limitation of liability
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, IN NO EVENT WILL THE DEVELOPER BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR FOR ANY LOSS OF DATA, PROFITS, REVENUE, GOODWILL OR HEALTH, PERSONAL INJURY OR PROPERTY DAMAGE, ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH THE APP, ANY ESTIMATE OR AI OUTPUT, OR YOUR RELIANCE ON THEM, EVEN IF WE HAVE BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, OUR TOTAL LIABILITY FOR ALL CLAIMS RELATING TO THE APP WILL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF (A) THE AMOUNT YOU PAID FOR THE APP IN THE TWELVE (12) MONTHS BEFORE THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM, OR (B) FIFTY US DOLLARS (USD 50).
Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or limitation of certain warranties or liabilities, so some of the above may not apply to you. Nothing in these Terms limits liability that cannot be limited under applicable law, such as liability for gross negligence or willful misconduct.
12. Indemnification
To the extent permitted by law, you agree to defend, indemnify and hold harmless the Developer from any claims, damages, losses, liabilities and expenses (including reasonable legal fees) arising from your misuse of the App, your violation of these Terms or your violation of any law or the rights of any third party.
13. Apple-specific terms
These Terms are between you and the Developer only, not Apple Inc. ("Apple"). The Developer, not Apple, is solely responsible for the App and its content. Apple has no obligation to provide any maintenance or support services for the App. If the App fails to conform to any applicable warranty, you may notify Apple and Apple will refund the purchase price (if any) of the App; to the maximum extent permitted by law, Apple has no other warranty obligation with respect to the App. Apple is not responsible for addressing any claims by you or any third party relating to the App, including product liability claims, claims that the App fails to conform to any legal or regulatory requirement, and claims under consumer protection, privacy or similar laws. Apple is not responsible for the investigation, defense, settlement or discharge of any third-party claim that the App infringes that third party's intellectual property rights. You represent that you are not located in a country subject to a U.S. Government embargo or designated as a "terrorist supporting" country, and that you are not listed on any U.S. Government list of prohibited or restricted parties. Apple and its subsidiaries are third-party beneficiaries of these Terms and, upon your acceptance, Apple will have the right to enforce these Terms against you as a third-party beneficiary. Where these Terms are silent, Apple's Licensed Application End User License Agreement (https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/) applies.
14. Governing law and disputes
These Terms are governed by the laws of the Republic of Türkiye, without regard to its conflict-of-law rules. Any dispute arising out of or relating to these Terms or the App will be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts and enforcement offices of Istanbul, Türkiye. If you are a consumer, this does not deprive you of the protection of mandatory provisions of the law of your country of residence, or of your right to bring proceedings in the courts of your country where the law gives you that right. Before starting any formal proceedings, please contact us so we can try to resolve the issue informally.
15. Changes to these Terms
We may update these Terms from time to time. The updated version will be posted on this page with a new effective date, and, where the changes are material, we may also let you know in the App. Your continued use of the App after the changes take effect means you accept the updated Terms.
16. General
If any provision of these Terms is found invalid or unenforceable, the remaining provisions will remain in full force and effect. Our failure to enforce any right is not a waiver of that right. You may not assign these Terms without our consent; we may assign them in connection with a sale, merger or transfer of the App. These Terms, together with the Privacy Policy, are the entire agreement between you and us regarding the App.
