Terms & Conditions
Last updated 20 July 2026
These terms cover your use of the apps made by Hesychia Studios (the studio name of Lukas Peter Genis, a sole trader in Victoria, Australia, ABN 60 722 726 498), such as spudnote, and this website, hesychia.studio. By downloading, installing, or using our apps or site, you agree to these terms. If you don’t agree, please don’t use them.
The apps and the App Store
Our apps are distributed through Apple’s App Store, so your use is also subject to Apple’s Licensed Application End User License Agreement (the standard Apple EULA) and the App Store Terms of Service. Where those Apple terms cover your download and your App Store relationship, they apply; these terms cover your relationship with us as the developer.
Your licence to use our apps
We grant you a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable licence to use our apps on Apple devices you own or control, for your own personal, non-commercial use, in line with the App Store Usage Rules. You may not copy, modify, reverse engineer, resell, rent, or redistribute the apps except where the law allows it.
Your content is yours
You own the content you create in our apps, including your notes and everything in them. We claim no ownership of it. Because it lives on your device and in your private iCloud, we don’t access it. You’re responsible for your content and for keeping your own backups (iCloud is provided by Apple, not by us).
Acceptable use
Please use our apps and site lawfully. Don’t use them to break the law, infringe someone else’s rights, or interfere with, disrupt, or attempt to compromise the software or its security.
Purchases, subscriptions & trials
Some features may need a one-time purchase or a subscription, sold and processed by Apple through the App Store. Prices are shown before you buy. Subscriptions renew automatically unless you cancel at least 24 hours before the end of the current period; you can manage or cancel them in your App Store account settings. Payment, billing, and refunds are handled by Apple under their terms.
Our intellectual property
The apps and site, including their design, code, the “Spud” character, our names, logos, and other branding, are owned by Hesychia Studios and protected by law. These terms don’t give you any rights to our trademarks or branding.
Changes to the apps
We’re a small studio actively building our apps. We may add, change, or remove features, and we may release, update, or discontinue an app over time.
Disclaimers
Our apps and site are provided “as is” and “as available”. To the extent permitted by law, we don’t warrant that they’ll be uninterrupted, error-free, or fit for a particular purpose. You use them at your own discretion.
Your rights under the Australian Consumer Law
Nothing in these terms excludes, restricts, or modifies any consumer guarantee, right, or remedy you have under the Australian Consumer Law or any other law that can’t lawfully be excluded. Where we’re permitted to limit our liability for failing to meet a consumer guarantee, our liability is limited to re-supplying the app or paying the cost of re-supply.
Limitation of liability
To the maximum extent permitted by law, and subject to the section above, Hesychia Studios won’t be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, or consequential loss, or for any loss of data or profits, arising from your use of (or inability to use) our apps or site.
Governing law
These terms are governed by the laws of Victoria, Australia. You and we submit to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of that state.
Changes to these terms
We may update these terms from time to time. When we do, we’ll change the “last updated” date above, and your continued use of our apps or site means you accept the updated terms.
