1. Purpose
These terms govern the use of the LEGATEM — Life Vault software (the "Vault"). Any use constitutes acceptance.
2. Nature of the service
The Vault runs 100% locally. Your data is encrypted on your device (AES-256) and is never transmitted to the publisher or any third party.
3. The Vault is not a legal instrument
The Vault is an organisation tool. It is neither a will, nor advance directives, nor legal, tax or medical advice. Wishes recorded in it have no binding legal value on that basis alone. For anything with legal effect, consult a notary or a qualified professional.
4. Licence
Personal, non-exclusive and non-transferable licence, for personal use. Reselling, redistributing, making available to the public, decompiling or misusing the software is prohibited. You may make the backup copies necessary for your own use.
5. Your responsibilities
You are solely responsible for the confidentiality of your password, backing up your file, distributing the key pieces and the accuracy of your information.
6. Loss of password
The publisher has no access to your password or your data. If the password is lost (with no way to reconstruct the key), the data becomes permanently inaccessible and cannot be restored.
7. Updates
Your purchase includes the delivered version and any fixes to that version (security or functional fixes). Security fixes are free for all customers, with or without a subscription, for as long as the publisher maintains the Vault. New versions (improvements to the Vault) are not included in the purchase; they may be offered through an optional subscription, at the rate then in force. The Vault has no deactivation mechanism: you keep your version and your data.
8. Warranty and liability
The software is provided "as is". The publisher is liable for damage caused intentionally or through gross negligence (Art. 100 of the Swiss Code of Obligations); otherwise, and within the limits permitted by law, it is not liable for indirect damages, notably data loss, loss of access or device failure. Always keep a copy of your file.
9. Governing law and jurisdiction
Swiss law, excluding its conflict-of-laws rules. If you act as a consumer, you may sue before the court of your place of residence or that of the publisher, in Lausanne (VD), and the publisher may sue only before the court of your place of residence (Art. 32 CPC). Otherwise, the place of jurisdiction is Lausanne (VD), subject to mandatory jurisdictions.
