Ritmo Terms of Use
These terms are an agreement between you and Elena Gukasova (“we”, “us”) about the Ritmo: Daily Devotional app (“Ritmo”). By using the app you accept them. These terms work together with Apple’s standard Licensed Application End User License Agreement (“Apple EULA”); if the two differ on a point, Apple’s applies to that point.
1. What Ritmo is
Ritmo is a daily practice of Bible reading: a short morning word, a midday pause and an evening reading that moves a chosen “path” forward. It is for personal reflection. It is not medical care, therapy, pastoral counselling or an emergency service. If you are in crisis or in danger, contact local emergency services or a help line (the app lists some under Settings).
2. Using the app
- You may use Ritmo for yourself, on your own Apple devices, for non-commercial purposes.
- Do not copy, resell, reverse-engineer or misuse the app or its texts and pictures, and do not try to break or overload our services.
- You are responsible for your device and, if you create one, your Apple ID.
3. Your account and your writing
An anonymous account is created automatically. Signing in with Apple is optional. What you write in the journal stays on your phone and belongs to you. See the Privacy Policy for how data is handled and how to delete everything.
4. Ritmo Premium subscription
- What is free: the morning word, the midday pause, the Bible, the journal, and the first two evenings of every path.
- What Premium adds: every evening of every path, to the last day.
- Price and term: Ritmo Premium is an annual auto-renewing subscription. The price is shown on the subscription screen before you buy: in the United States $14.99 per year, and a local price in other countries.
- Free trial: new subscribers get a 7-day free trial. If you do not cancel at least 24 hours before the trial ends, the subscription starts and you are charged the yearly price. Any unused part of a free trial is lost when you buy a subscription.
- Billing and renewal: payment is charged to your Apple ID at confirmation of purchase (or when the trial ends). The subscription renews automatically each year unless it is cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Your account is charged for renewal within 24 hours before the end of the current period at the then-current price.
- Manage or cancel: in iOS go to Settings → your name → Subscriptions → Ritmo. Deleting the app does not cancel the subscription.
- Refunds are handled by Apple under its policies. Ask Apple at reportaproblem.apple.com.
- Price changes: if the price changes, Apple will notify you and, where required, ask for your consent before the new price applies.
5. Content
The readings, reflections, questions and pictures in Ritmo are made by us and protected by copyright. Scripture quotations are from the Berean Standard Bible (public domain). The texts are meant for reflection and are not a substitute for your own reading, your church or professional advice.
6. Availability
We work to keep the app running but do not promise it will always be available or error-free. We may change or remove features, including paths. If we remove something you paid for, we will treat it fairly under Apple’s rules.
7. Disclaimers and limits
The app is provided “as is”. To the extent allowed by law, we are not liable for indirect or consequential losses, and our total liability is limited to what you paid us for the app in the last 12 months. Nothing here limits rights you have under the law that cannot be limited.
8. Ending use
You can stop using Ritmo at any time and delete your account in the app (Settings → Privacy & data). We may suspend access if someone seriously misuses the app.
9. Changes to these terms
We may update these terms. If a change matters, we will tell you in the app. Continuing to use Ritmo after a change means you accept it.
