HearthScan

Terms of Use

Effective date: July 16, 2026

Please read these Terms of Use ("Terms") carefully. By installing, accessing, or using HearthScan ("the App"), you agree to be bound by these Terms. If you do not agree, do not install or use the App. The App is published by Pro Numerology ("we", "us", "our").

1. License

Subject to these Terms, we grant you a personal, limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable, revocable license to install and use the App on devices you own or control, for your personal or internal business purposes. Your use is also subject to the rules of the store through which you obtained the App (for example, the Microsoft Store Standard Application License Terms), which apply in addition to these Terms.

2. Ownership

The App, including all software, design, text, graphics, icons, and trademarks, is owned by us or our licensors and is protected by intellectual-property laws. These Terms grant you a license to use the App; they do not transfer any ownership to you. All rights not expressly granted are reserved. The names "HearthScan", "Hearth", and related logos are our marks.

3. Restrictions

Except to the extent this restriction is prohibited by applicable law, you agree not to: (a) copy, modify, or create derivative works of the App; (b) reverse engineer, decompile, or disassemble the App, or attempt to derive its source code; (c) rent, lease, lend, sell, redistribute, or sublicense the App; (d) remove or alter any proprietary notices; (e) use the App to develop a competing product; or (f) use the App in any unlawful manner or in violation of these Terms.

4. Your documents and content

You retain all rights to the documents, images, and files you scan, import, or create with the App ("Your Content"). We do not claim ownership of Your Content and, as described in our Privacy Policy, we do not receive it. You are solely responsible for Your Content, including for having all necessary rights and permissions to scan, copy, store, and process it, and for ensuring that your use complies with all applicable laws (including privacy, data-protection, copyright, and confidentiality laws) when scanning or processing documents that belong to or concern other people.

5. Acceptable use

You agree to use the App only for lawful purposes. You will not use the App to infringe the rights of others, to process material you are not authorized to process, to violate any person's privacy, or in connection with any unlawful, fraudulent, or harmful activity. You are responsible for your own device, network, and their security.

6. Automated results are not guaranteed; not professional advice

The App uses automated image processing and optical character recognition (OCR). These technologies are imperfect and results may contain errors, omissions, or inaccuracies, and accuracy varies by language, document quality, and other factors (some languages are expressly offered as "beta"). Image-enhancement features (such as "straighten & clean", rotate, and format conversion) alter images and may not preserve every detail. You must review and verify any output before relying on it. The App does not provide legal, medical, financial, or other professional advice, and you should not rely on its output as a substitute for professional judgment or for an original document.

7. Data loss and backups

You are responsible for maintaining your own backups of Your Content. The App reads, writes, converts, moves, enhances, and deletes files at your direction. To the maximum extent permitted by law, we are not responsible for any loss, corruption, deletion, or alteration of Your Content or any other data, however caused. Keep independent backups of anything important before processing it.

8. Network and device features

Certain features (phone-as-scanner and home-network sharing) operate over your local network and depend on your network configuration, firewall, and devices, which are outside our control. You are responsible for the security of your network and for who has access to it. We do not guarantee that these features will be available, uninterrupted, or secure in your specific environment.

9. Third-party services

The App may link to or open third-party services, stores, and websites (for example, the Microsoft Store). We do not control and are not responsible for third-party services, their content, or their terms and privacy practices. Your use of them is at your own risk and subject to their terms.

10. Updates and availability

We may update, change, suspend, or discontinue the App or any of its features at any time, with or without notice, and we are under no obligation to provide updates or support. Updates may be required for continued use.

11. Disclaimer of warranties

12. Limitation of liability

13. Indemnification

To the maximum extent permitted by law, you agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless us and our owners, employees, and licensors from and against any claims, damages, liabilities, losses, and expenses (including reasonable legal fees) arising out of or related to Your Content, your use of the App, your violation of these Terms, or your violation of any law or the rights of any third party.

14. Termination

These Terms apply until terminated. Your license terminates automatically if you breach these Terms. Upon termination you must stop using the App and delete all copies. Sections that by their nature should survive (including Ownership, Disclaimers, Limitation of Liability, Indemnification, and Governing Law) survive termination.

15. Export and legal compliance

You represent that you are not located in, and will not use the App in, a country or manner prohibited by applicable export-control or sanctions laws, and that you will comply with all laws applicable to your use of the App.

16. Governing law and jurisdiction

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Israel, without regard to its conflict-of-laws rules. The competent courts located in Tel Aviv-Yafo, Israel, will have exclusive jurisdiction over any dispute arising out of or relating to the App or these Terms, and you consent to their jurisdiction, except where applicable mandatory consumer-protection law provides otherwise.

17. Consumer rights

Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion of certain warranties or the exclusion or limitation of certain damages. To that extent, some of the exclusions and limitations above may not apply to you, and you may have additional rights under the mandatory law of your place of residence. Nothing in these Terms limits rights that cannot be limited under applicable law.

18. General

These Terms, together with the Privacy Policy and any store license terms, are the entire agreement between you and us regarding the App and supersede any prior agreements. If any provision is found unenforceable, the remaining provisions remain in effect, and the unenforceable provision will be enforced to the maximum extent permissible. Our failure to enforce any provision is not a waiver. You may not assign these Terms; we may assign them in connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets.

19. Changes to these Terms

We may revise these Terms from time to time. When we do, we will update the effective date and post the revised Terms at this URL. Your continued use of the App after the revised Terms take effect constitutes acceptance.

20. Feedback

If you choose to send us suggestions, ideas, bug reports, or other feedback about the App, you grant us a perpetual, irrevocable, worldwide, transferable, royalty-free right to use, modify, and incorporate that feedback for any purpose, without any obligation, attribution, or compensation to you, and we are equally free not to use it.

21. No high-risk use

The App is a consumer application intended for ordinary home use. It is not designed, tested, certified, or licensed for use in any high-risk or safety-critical environment or activity, including medical or life-support systems, emergency services, aviation, nuclear facilities, or any other setting in which a failure, error, or delay of the App could lead to death, personal injury, or severe physical, property, or environmental damage. You must not use the App in any such environment, and, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, we accept no responsibility or liability for any such use.

22. Time limit on claims

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, any claim arising out of or relating to the App or these Terms must be brought within twelve (12) months after the event giving rise to the claim first occurred; otherwise, the claim is permanently barred. Where the law that applies to you does not permit such a limitation, the shortest limitation period that it does permit applies instead.

23. Translations and controlling language

These Terms were drafted in English. Translations, including the German version, are provided for convenience only. To the extent permitted by applicable law, if there is any inconsistency between the English version and a translation, the English version prevails.

24. No third-party beneficiaries; force majeure

These Terms are between you and us only, and create no rights for, and may not be enforced by, any other person. Microsoft and other platform, store, or component providers are not parties to these Terms and owe you no obligations under them. We will not be liable for any failure or delay caused by circumstances beyond our reasonable control.
