Terms of use

1. Who these terms are with

AFTG s.r.o., Komenského 1081/91, Bolevec, 323 00 Plzeň, Czech Republic, IČO 03267725, VAT CZ03267725, registered in the Commercial Register kept by the Regional Court in Plzeň, file C 29968. The same entity is the licensor named in the engine licence.

In these terms, "the site" means https://pressboardkit.com and everything published on it — not the dashboard at app.pressboardkit.com, which is a separate host with accounts. "We" and "us" mean the entity named above. "You" means anyone using the site.

2. Scope

Three separate things carry the PressboardKit name and each is governed by a different document. These terms cover the site: the marketing pages, the documentation, the changelog and the code samples published in them.

• The engine is licensed separately — see the licence. Where the two conflict on a question about the engine, the licence wins.
• The dashboard at app.pressboardkit.com is where a licence is issued and administered, so what you may do there is governed by the licence. These terms apply to it only as a website — sections 3 and 4 below. What it stores and which cookies it sets is in the privacy notice, section 4.

By using the site, you accept these terms. If you do not accept them, do not use the site.

3. Using the site

You may read, link to, print and quote the site. You may not:

• attempt to gain unauthorised access to the site, its hosting or any system connected to it;
• interfere with the site's availability, including by automated requests at a volume that degrades it for others;
• republish substantial parts of the site as your own, or in a way that implies we wrote or endorsed something we did not.

The site is static and asks nothing of you: no account, no cookie consent, no tracking. See the privacy notice for what that means in practice.

4. Intellectual property

The text, layout, design, graphics and source of the site are ours or licensed to us, and remain so. The name PressboardKit and the site's logo are ours.

Code samples published in the documentation are there to be used. You may copy them into your own projects, with or without attribution, and we make no claim over your code as a result. Everything else on the site is available under ordinary quotation and fair-dealing norms: short extracts with attribution and a link.

Apple, iOS, iPhone, iPad, Swift, SwiftUI and related marks are trademarks of Apple Inc., registered in the United States and other countries. This project is not affiliated with, endorsed by or sponsored by Apple.

Every mention of them here is referential: they identify the platform the engine runs on, the language it is written in, and the behaviour it is measured against. Swift is an open-source language released under the Apache 2.0 licence; the name and the logo remain Apple's, and nothing on this site is a claim to either.

5. Links to other sites

The site links to third-party sites, chiefly the source repository on GitHub. Those sites have their own terms and their own privacy practices, and we are not responsible for their content. Following such a link takes you somewhere these terms no longer apply.

6. No warranty

The site is provided as it is, without warranty of any kind. In particular: the documentation may be incomplete or out of date, the changelog describes work in progress, and the code samples are illustrations rather than production code. Nothing published here is a promise that the engine will behave in a particular way in your application, or that a described feature exists in the version you are using.

We may change, move or withdraw any part of the site at any time, and we do not guarantee that it will be available without interruption.

7. Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent the law permits, we are not liable for any loss arising from use of, or inability to use, the site — including lost profits, lost data, lost time, or loss arising from reliance on anything published here.

Nothing in these terms limits liability that cannot lawfully be limited, including liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence, or for fraud.

Where liability can lawfully be limited, it is capped at the fee payable for the licence of the application concerned for one billing period. That is worth reading twice while the engine is free, because a fee of nothing makes the cap nothing: today this clause limits our liability to zero, and we would rather write that down than leave a cap that sounds larger than it is.

The cap does not touch the paragraph above it — liability that cannot lawfully be limited stays unlimited whatever this section says — and it does not touch section 8: against a consumer it applies only so far as consumer law allows, which in many cases is not at all.

8. If you are a consumer

These terms are written for developers putting the engine into something they ship, and a licence is issued to an application rather than to a person. But the site is public and anybody may read it, and nothing stops the person reading it from being a consumer — a natural person acting outside their trade, business or profession.

If that is you, then the mandatory protections of the law where you live apply to you, and nothing here removes or narrows them. Where a clause in these terms and such a protection disagree, the protection wins and the clause simply does not apply to you that far. That is not a concession we are making; it is how those protections work, and writing anything else here would not change it.

In practice that bears most on section 7, whose cap applies to a consumer only so far as consumer law permits, and on section 10, where choosing Czech law does not move you out of the protections of your own country's law.

A consumer in the Czech Republic who cannot settle a dispute with us directly may take it to the Czech Trade Inspection Authority (Česká obchodní inspekce), which runs out-of-court resolution of consumer disputes at adr.coi.cz.

9. Changes to these terms

We may revise these terms. The version published here is the one in force, and the date below says when it last changed. Continuing to use the site after a change means accepting the revised terms.

10. Governing law

These terms are governed by the law of the Czech Republic, and the courts of the Czech Republic have jurisdiction over any dispute arising out of them or out of use of the site. AFTG s.r.o. is established there, and section 1 says where.

If you are a consumer this does not cost you anything: a choice of law cannot deprive you of the mandatory protections of the country you live in, and you keep whatever right that country gives you to bring proceedings at home. See section 8.
