9.2. Continuous availability of any particular feature is not guaranteed.
9.3. In the case of significant changes, you will be informed, where appropriate, through an in-app notice or other communication channels.
10. Premium Features and Paid Services
10.1. Some ForMyGluco features are offered under a Premium subscription. Premium can only be purchased through the Apple App Store, using Apple's in-app purchase system.
10.2. Premium is offered in two plans, and each plan can be purchased on a monthly or an annual basis:
- Basic: unlimited creation of new records, advanced analytics, routine health check-up tracking and all reminders (medication, water, check-up and screening reminders).
- Pro: everything in the Basic plan, plus the My Doctor Appointments module (appointment tracking, appointment reminders and the appointment list).
10.3. The monthly and annual price of each plan is shown clearly in your own currency in the App Store before you confirm the purchase. Prices vary by country.
10.4. Payment is charged to your App Store account when you confirm the purchase. Subscriptions renew automatically unless auto-renewal is turned off at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. The renewal charge is taken from your Apple ID account within the 24 hours before the end of the current period. You can turn off auto-renewal at any time on your iOS device via Settings → (your Apple ID) → Subscriptions → ForMyGluco, or at https://apps.apple.com/account/subscriptions.
10.5. For purchases made through the App Store, Apple is the party acting as seller and issuing the invoice. ForMyGluco is the provider of the app; it is not a party to the payment transaction and does not see, process or store any information about your payment method. ForMyGluco cannot cancel or refund a subscription bought through the App Store on your behalf; for refund requests you must apply at https://reportaproblem.apple.com.
10.6. The 30-day free usage period is NOT an App Store introductory offer or a free trial subscription. This period is started automatically in-app by the app on the date you create your account; it does not require you to enter any payment details, no charge is taken, and it does not convert into a paid subscription by itself when it ends. No offer relating to this period is displayed in the App Store.
10.7. Details of the Premium subscription are set out in the Premium Subscription Terms document: Premium Subscription Terms
11. At the End of the Trial Period: Archive Mode
11.1. ForMyGluco has no permanent free tier. When your 30-day free usage period ends and you have not purchased a Premium subscription, your account moves into Archive Mode.
11.2. In Archive Mode:
- (a) you continue to access and view all of your existing health records — none of your records are deleted, locked or hidden;
- (b) the estimated HbA1c (eA1c) indicator, the HbA1c screen and the blood glucose chart on the home screen remain available;
- (c) you can edit and delete the records you entered during the trial period, within that period's date range;
- (d) PDF doctor report generation and Excel export remain free; being able to take your data out at any time is a right and is not made conditional on a subscription;
- (e) on the other hand, you cannot create new records (blood glucose, insulin, medication, water, blood pressure, weight, lab result), you cannot use appointment creation and appointment tracking, you cannot use reminders and routine check-up features, and you cannot access advanced analytics.
11.3. When you purchase a Premium subscription, all of the features that were switched off are re-enabled immediately.
12. Special Terms Relating to Apple

12.8. US government end users. The app is a "commercial item" as defined in 48 C.F.R. §2.101 and consists of "commercial computer software" and "commercial computer software documentation" as those terms are used in 48 C.F.R. §12.212 and 48 C.F.R. §227.7202.

13. Intellectual Property Rights

13.2. These Terms grant you only a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable and revocable right to use the app personally and in accordance with these Terms.

14.1. The health records, notes, appointment details and other content you enter into the app belong to you. We do not claim ownership of that content.

- user authentication and data storage services,
- "Sign in with Apple" and "Sign in with Google" authentication services,
- monitoring of app crash and error logs,

15.3. Use of these service providers may also be subject to their own terms of service and privacy policies.
15.4. To the extent permitted by applicable law, ForMyGluco is not responsible for outages or changes in third-party services outside its control.
16. Your Data, Backup and Export
16.1. The app works local-first: your records are first written to the local database on your device and, once a connection is available, are synchronised to the server in association with your account. The app also works without an internet connection.
16.2. PDF reports and Excel files are generated entirely on your device; report content is never sent to our servers or to third parties at any stage. Only you decide who to share the file with.
16.3. Synchronisation may be delayed because of a network outage, a device failure or removal of the app. We strongly recommend that you export your important health records as PDF or Excel at regular intervals and keep them in your own environment.
16.4. Deleting the app from your device removes only the local copy; your records on the server remain until you delete your account.
17. Deleting Your Account
17.1. You can delete your account from within the app via Settings → Delete My Account, with a two-step confirmation. When you confirm:
- (a) your account on the server and all health records linked to it are deleted permanently and at the same time — there is no waiting period or "deletion queue";
- (b) the local database copy on your device is deleted in the same operation;
- (c) you are signed out.
17.2. This action cannot be undone and your data cannot be recovered. We recommend taking a backup with the PDF or Excel export feature before deleting.
17.3. IMPORTANT: Deleting your account does NOT CANCEL the Premium subscription you purchased through the App Store. To stop being charged, you must separately cancel the subscription on your iOS device via Settings → (your Apple ID) → Subscriptions.
18. Notifications
18.1. ForMyGluco does not send push notifications from the server. All reminders are scheduled and triggered locally on your device.
18.2. Types of notification that may be sent: medication intake reminders, routine health check-up and screening reminders, water intake reminders, doctor appointment reminders, the weekly summary notification and an informational notification about the end of your free usage period.
18.3. Not granting notification permission does not affect the other functions of the app. If you delete the app or turn off notification permission, scheduled reminders also cease to exist.
19. Disclaimer Regarding the Provision of the Service
19.1. To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Services are provided "as is" and "as available".
19.2. Unless otherwise required by law, there is no guarantee that the Services will operate without interruption, that all errors will be corrected, that they will always be accessible, that they will be compatible with every device, or that they will meet all of your expectations.
19.3. Temporary interruptions to the Services may occur because of maintenance work, technical faults, third-party service outages, internet infrastructure problems or events of force majeure.
19.4. This section does not remove or limit your mandatory statutory rights as a consumer.

To the maximum extent permitted by mandatory rules of applicable law, ForMyGluco and its business partners and service providers cannot be held liable for damages arising out of the use of, or inability to use, the app, including indirect damages, loss of data, loss of anticipated profit and third-party claims.
20.2. This limitation also applies, to the extent permitted by mandatory applicable law, to claims based on negligence, breach of contract or other grounds of liability.
20.3. This section does not apply in cases of death or personal injury, in cases of intent or gross negligence, or in other cases where applicable law does not permit limitation.

21.1. To the extent permitted by applicable law, you agree to cover third-party claims, damages, costs and reasonable legal expenses brought against ForMyGluco as a result of your breach of these Terms, your unlawful use, your infringement of third parties' rights, or your faulty or unlawful acts.
21.2. This provision applies only within the framework of applicable law and to the extent it is valid; your mandatory rights as a consumer are reserved.

22.1. ForMyGluco cannot be held liable for failing to perform, or for delay in performing, its obligations because of events beyond its reasonable control.
22.2. Force majeure events include, without limitation, natural disasters, epidemics, war and similar extraordinary situations, strike or lockout, large-scale outages in electricity and internet infrastructure, outages at data centre or cloud service providers, decisions of official authorities, and technical faults beyond our control.
23. Validity and Severability
23.1. If any provision of these Terms is held to be invalid, unenforceable or void, this does not affect the validity of the remaining provisions.
23.2. A provision held invalid will be interpreted and applied in the manner that most closely reflects the parties' original intention and applicable law.
24. No Waiver
24.1. ForMyGluco's failure or delay in exercising any right under these Terms does not mean that it has waived that right.
24.2. A single instance of not exercising a right does not prevent that right from being exercised in the future in the same or similar circumstances.
25. Updates to the Terms
25.1. These Terms may be updated from time to time. Updates may be made because of changes in legislation, changes in the Services, security requirements or to provide clarification.
25.2. In the case of significant changes, you will be informed, where appropriate, through an in-app notice or other means of communication.
25.3. The updated Terms take effect on the date they are published. To the extent permitted by applicable law, your continued use of the Services after the updated Terms take effect means that you accept the current version.
25.4. If you do not accept the changes, you may stop using the Services and delete your account.
26. Dispute Resolution, Governing Law and Competent Forum
26.1. We aim to resolve disputes amicably in the first instance. If you experience a problem, we recommend that you first contact us at [email protected]; we can resolve most requests directly.
26.2. Governing law and competent forum. These Terms are governed by the law of the Republic of Türkiye, and the competent courts and enforcement offices in Türkiye have jurisdiction over disputes.
26.3. However, if you are acting as a consumer, this provision does not remove your right to benefit from the protection afforded to you by the mandatory consumer protection provisions of the country of your habitual residence; your right to apply to the competent courts, consumer arbitration committees or equivalent bodies of your own country is reserved.
26.4. If you reside in the European Union, you may also apply to the consumer dispute resolution bodies (ADR entities) recognised in your own country. If you reside in Türkiye, the route to the Turkish consumer arbitration committees and the consumer courts is open to you.
26.5. Your right to lodge a complaint about data protection matters with the data protection authority in your country is reserved in all cases.
