Terms of Service — Free Plan

Scope. These Terms apply exclusively to the AppTego Free plan. Paid plans (Team and Enterprise) are governed by separate subscription agreements. If you upgrade to a paid plan, the terms of that agreement will supersede these Terms to the extent of any conflict.

1. Acceptance of terms

By creating an account, accessing, or using the AppTego platform, website, APIs, and related services (collectively, the “Service”), you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service (“Terms”). If you are using the Service on behalf of a company, organisation, or other legal entity, you represent and warrant that you have the authority to bind that entity to these Terms, and “you” refers to both you individually and the entity.

By clicking “I agree,” creating an account, or otherwise accessing or using the Service, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by these Terms. This action constitutes your electronic signature and your consent to enter into these Terms electronically, in accordance with the United States Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act (E-SIGN Act), the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act (UETA), and any applicable state or international equivalents.

If you do not agree to these Terms in their entirety, you must not access or use the Service.

2. Description of service

AppTego provides a mobile application security platform that applies runtime application self-protection (RASP), code obfuscation, and threat detection capabilities to compiled mobile application binaries. The Service includes, without limitation, our web-based dashboard, backend processing infrastructure, build pipeline, configuration APIs, and related tooling.

The Service modifies your compiled application binaries by injecting security controls at the binary level. You acknowledge that this process fundamentally alters the structure and behaviour of your application binary and that such modifications carry inherent risks, including but not limited to compatibility issues, performance changes, and unexpected behaviour.

3. Free plan scope and limitations

The Free plan is provided at no monetary cost and is subject to the following limitations, which may be changed, reduced, or removed at any time without notice:

A limited number of builds per week.
A limited number of concurrent builds.
A limited subset of security controls.
A limited subset of platform features.
No build signing capabilities.
No audit or device logging.
No code obfuscation.
No certificate pinning or connection security controls.
No live configuration updates.
No access to the REST API or automation integrations.

AppTego reserves the right to modify, limit, or discontinue the Free plan — or any feature within it — at any time, for any reason, with or without notice. The Free plan is not a commitment to provide any particular level of service, features, or availability indefinitely.

4. Account registration and security

To use the Service, you must create an account. You represent and warrant that you are at least eighteen (18) years of age, or the age of legal majority in your jurisdiction if greater than eighteen. If you are under the required age, you may not create an account or use the Service. AppTego reserves the right to terminate any account that it reasonably believes was created by or is being used by a person under the required age.

You agree to:

Provide accurate, current, and complete registration information.
Maintain the confidentiality and security of your account credentials, including your multi-factor authentication (MFA) setup.
Promptly notify us of any unauthorised access to or use of your account.
Accept full responsibility for all activity that occurs under your account, whether or not authorised by you.

AppTego is not liable for any loss or damage arising from your failure to secure your account credentials.

5. Acceptable use

You agree that you will not, under any circumstances:

Use the Service for any unlawful, fraudulent, or malicious purpose.
Upload malicious software, malware, or any code intended to harm others through the Service.
Attempt to gain unauthorised access to our systems, infrastructure, other users’ accounts, or any data not intended for you.
Use the Service to process applications you do not own or do not have the legal right to modify.
Interfere with or disrupt the integrity, performance, or availability of the Service or its underlying infrastructure.
Use the Service in any manner that imposes an unreasonable or disproportionately large load on our infrastructure.
Use the Service to develop, train, or improve a competing product or service, or to perform competitive benchmarking or analysis.
Resell, sublicense, lease, lend, redistribute, or otherwise make the Service available to any third party without prior written consent from AppTego.
Remove, alter, or obscure any proprietary notices, labels, or markings on or within the Service.
Use automated scripts, bots, or scrapers to access the Service except through our officially documented APIs.

5.1 Reverse engineering and security testing

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, you must not, and you must not authorise, encourage, assist, or knowingly permit any third party to, without the prior explicit written consent of AppTego:

Reverse engineer, decompile, disassemble, deobfuscate, decrypt, unprotect, modify, or otherwise attempt to derive or reconstruct the source code, algorithms, data structures, file formats, network protocols, or underlying ideas of any part of the Service or any Output, including but not limited to the security controls, obfuscation techniques, build pipeline, detection mechanisms, anti-tamper logic, runtime hooks, or configuration delivery system.
Inspect, observe, instrument, hook, debug, trace, profile, fuzz, or otherwise analyse the runtime behaviour of any AppTego component or any Output for the purpose of understanding, characterising, defeating, bypassing, or replicating its security mechanisms.
Attempt to assess, evaluate, benchmark, or test the effectiveness, limitations, or weaknesses of the security controls applied by the Service.
Conduct any form of penetration testing, vulnerability assessment, security audit, red-team exercise, or similar activity against the Service or against applications protected by the Service for the purpose of evaluating the Service’s capabilities.
Develop, distribute, or use any tool, script, signature, rule, or technique designed to detect, identify, characterise, bypass, defeat, or remove any AppTego security control.
Publish, disclose, present, share, or post (including on academic, security-research, or social-media platforms) any findings, analysis, commentary, screenshots, code excerpts, or proof-of-concept material regarding the security properties, internals, effectiveness, or limitations of the Service or the protections it applies.
Provide information about the Service’s security mechanisms to any third party for the purpose of circumventing, bypassing, or defeating those mechanisms.

Nothing in this section is intended to limit any rights you may have under applicable law that cannot be waived or limited by contract, including any rights under the European Union Directive 2009/24/EC (or its national implementations) to decompile software strictly for interoperability purposes. Any such legally permitted activity must be conducted only to the minimum extent necessary and in compliance with all applicable legal requirements; you must give AppTego written notice and a reasonable opportunity to provide the requested interoperability information before undertaking any such activity.

You acknowledge that any breach of this Section 5.1 will cause AppTego immediate and irreparable harm for which monetary damages would be inadequate. You consent to the entry of injunctive or other equitable relief in any court of competent jurisdiction, without the requirement of posting a bond or proving actual damages, to prevent or restrain any actual or threatened breach. AppTego is further entitled to recover its reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs incurred in enforcing this Section, in addition to any other remedies available at law or in equity.

This section survives termination of these Terms.

5.2 Export compliance

You represent and warrant that: (a) you are not located in, under the control of, or a national or resident of any country to which the United States has embargoed goods or services; (b) you are not identified on any United States government list of prohibited or restricted parties, including the U.S. Treasury Department’s Specially Designated Nationals List (SDN List) or the U.S. Commerce Department’s Denied Persons List or Entity List; and (c) you will not use the Service in violation of any applicable export control laws or regulations, including the U.S. Export Administration Regulations (EAR) and sanctions programs administered by the U.S. Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC). You are solely responsible for compliance with all applicable export laws and trade sanctions in your jurisdiction.

5.3 Violations

Any violation of Section 5 may result in immediate suspension or termination of your account without notice, and AppTego reserves the right to pursue any and all legal remedies available, including injunctive relief and recovery of damages.

6. Intellectual property

6.1 AppTego’s intellectual property

The Service — including but not limited to all software, source code, object code, algorithms, security techniques, detection mechanisms, obfuscation methods, build processes, APIs, documentation, user interfaces, designs, branding, trademarks, trade secrets, and all other materials and content — is and remains the exclusive property of AppTego and is protected by applicable intellectual property laws, including copyright, trademark, patent, and trade secret law.

Your use of the Service does not grant you any ownership interest, licence, or other right in or to any of AppTego’s intellectual property, except the limited, revocable right to use the Service as expressly permitted by these Terms.

6.2 Your content

You retain all rights, title, and interest in and to the mobile application binaries you upload to the Service (“Your Content”). By uploading Your Content, you grant AppTego a limited, non-exclusive, royalty-free licence to process, modify, and store Your Content solely for the purpose of providing the Service to you. This licence terminates when Your Content is deleted from our systems.

You represent and warrant that you own or have all necessary rights, licences, and permissions to upload Your Content and to authorise AppTego to process it as described herein. You are solely responsible for ensuring that your use of the Service does not infringe any third party’s intellectual property or other rights.

6.3 Output binaries

The protected binary output generated by the Service (“Output”) contains your original application code combined with AppTego’s proprietary security modules, code, and techniques. You are granted a non-exclusive, non-transferable licence, revocable upon termination of these Terms or your account, to use, distribute, and deploy the Output solely as part of your mobile application. You may not extract, isolate, decompile, or separate AppTego’s proprietary components from the Output. The AppTego security components embedded within the Output remain the exclusive intellectual property of AppTego.

6.4 Feedback

If you provide AppTego with any suggestions, ideas, feedback, or recommendations regarding the Service (“Feedback”), you assign to AppTego all right, title, and interest in such Feedback. AppTego may use, incorporate, and commercialise Feedback for any purpose without obligation, attribution, or compensation to you.

7. Disclaimers — No warranties

THE SERVICE IS PROVIDED ON AN “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE” BASIS, WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED. TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, APPTEGO EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMS ALL WARRANTIES, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO:

APPTEGO MAKES NO CLAIM, WARRANTY, OR REPRESENTATION THAT ITS PRODUCTS OR SERVICES ARE UNBREAKABLE, TAMPER-PROOF, BYPASS-PROOF, OR INVULNERABLE TO ATTACK, AND PROVIDES ZERO GUARANTEES THAT THE SERVICE WILL ACTUALLY WORK, FUNCTION CORRECTLY, OR PROTECT YOUR APPLICATION TO ANY DEGREE WHATSOEVER. Any marketing, documentation, or other materials describing the capabilities of the Service are provided for informational purposes only and do not constitute warranties or guarantees of any kind.

7.1 General disclaimers

No warranty of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, or non-infringement.
No warranty that the Service will be uninterrupted, timely, secure, error-free, or available at any particular time.
No warranty that the results obtained from the Service will be accurate, reliable, or meet your requirements or expectations.
No warranty that any errors or defects in the Service will be corrected.

7.2 Build process

AppTego does not guarantee that any build will complete successfully. The build process may fail for any reason, including but not limited to incompatible binary formats, unsupported architectures, resource limitations, or internal errors.
AppTego does not guarantee that the protected binary will function correctly, install properly, launch without errors, or behave identically to the original unprotected binary.
AppTego does not guarantee compatibility with any specific operating system version, device model, hardware configuration, or third-party library.

7.3 App store acceptance

AppTego does not guarantee that any application processed through the Service will be accepted, approved, or permitted by Apple’s App Store, Google Play, or any other application distribution platform. App store review policies are determined solely by the respective platform operators and are outside AppTego’s control.
AppTego is not responsible for any rejections, removals, delays, or penalties imposed by any app store or distribution platform in connection with applications processed through the Service.
You are solely responsible for ensuring that your application, as modified by the Service, complies with all applicable app store guidelines, policies, and requirements.

7.4 Security control effectiveness

AppTego does not guarantee that the security controls applied by the Service will prevent, detect, or mitigate any particular security threat, including but not limited to reverse engineering, code injection, tampering, jailbreaking, rooting, hooking, debugging, man-in-the-middle attacks, or any other form of attack or exploitation.
No security solution can provide absolute protection. AppTego’s controls are designed to raise the difficulty and cost of attacking your application, but a sufficiently motivated and resourced attacker may still succeed.
AppTego does not guarantee compliance with any regulatory, legal, or industry security standard, including but not limited to PCI-DSS, HIPAA, GDPR, SOC 2, FedRAMP, OWASP, or any other framework. While the Service may help you work towards compliance, you are solely responsible for determining whether your use of the Service satisfies your compliance obligations.

7.5 Performance and stability

AppTego does not guarantee that applying security controls will not affect your application’s performance, including but not limited to startup time, runtime speed, memory usage, battery consumption, binary size, or network behaviour.
AppTego does not guarantee that the protected application will be stable or free from crashes, hangs, or unexpected behaviour.
You are solely responsible for testing the protected output thoroughly before distributing it to end users.

8. No support, no SLA

The Free plan does not include:

Any Service Level Agreement (SLA) for uptime, availability, or response time.
Any guaranteed response time for support requests.
Any dedicated or priority support.
Any obligation by AppTego to provide technical assistance, troubleshooting, bug fixes, or workarounds.
Any guaranteed maintenance schedule or advance notice of downtime.

AppTego may, at its sole discretion, provide community resources, documentation, or best-effort assistance, but is under no obligation to do so. Support, SLAs, and guaranteed response times are available only under paid plan agreements.

9. Assumption of risk

You expressly acknowledge and agree that your use of the Service is entirely at your own risk. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing:

You are solely responsible for evaluating whether the Service is suitable for your use case, application, and risk tolerance.
You are solely responsible for testing all Output thoroughly in your own test environments before any production deployment, app store submission, or distribution to end users.
You are solely responsible for maintaining backups of your original, unmodified application binaries. AppTego is not responsible for any loss of or damage to your original binaries.
You are solely responsible for any consequences arising from the use, distribution, or deployment of Output, including but not limited to app store rejections, end-user complaints, crashes, data loss, security incidents, loss of revenue, or reputational harm.
You are solely responsible for ensuring that your use of the Service complies with all applicable laws, regulations, and contractual obligations, including any obligations to your own end users.

10. Limitation of liability

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW:

AppTego, its parent, subsidiaries, affiliates, officers, directors, employees, agents, licensors, and service providers (collectively, the “AppTego Parties”) shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, punitive, or exemplary damages, including but not limited to damages for loss of profits, revenue, goodwill, data, business opportunities, or anticipated savings, whether arising from contract, tort (including negligence), strict liability, or any other legal theory, even if AppTego has been advised of the possibility of such damages.
The AppTego Parties shall not be liable for any damages arising from: (a) your use of or inability to use the Service; (b) any build failure, error, or unexpected behaviour; (c) any app store rejection, removal, or penalty; (d) any failure of security controls to prevent, detect, or mitigate an attack; (e) any performance degradation, crashes, or instability in your application; (f) any unauthorised access to or alteration of your data or applications; (g) any interruption or cessation of the Service; or (h) any other matter relating to the Service.
Because the Free plan is provided at no charge, AppTego’s total aggregate liability to you for all claims arising from or related to the Service or these Terms shall not exceed zero dollars ($0.00 USD). You acknowledge that this limitation of liability is a material term of these Terms and that AppTego would not provide the Free plan without it.
You acknowledge that the Free plan is provided gratuitously, without consideration, and on a purely voluntary basis. No warranty, representation, condition, undertaking, or commitment of any kind — express, implied, statutory, or otherwise — is made by AppTego regarding the fitness, suitability, security, accuracy, completeness, availability, or merchantability of the Service for your particular use case, even if such use case has been disclosed to or discussed with AppTego. Your sole and exclusive remedy for any dissatisfaction with the Service, any defect or failure of the Service, or any breach of these Terms by AppTego is to discontinue use of the Service and close your account.

11. Indemnification

You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless the AppTego Parties from and against any and all claims, demands, actions, liabilities, damages, losses, costs, and expenses (including reasonable legal fees) arising from or related to:

Your use of the Service or any Output generated through the Service.
Your violation of these Terms.
Your violation of any applicable law, regulation, or third-party right.
Any claim that Your Content infringes or misappropriates any third party’s intellectual property or other rights.
Any claim brought by your end users, customers, or any third party in connection with applications you have processed through the Service.

This indemnification obligation survives termination of these Terms.

12. Data handling

Your use of the Service is also governed by our Privacy Policy. Application binaries uploaded for processing are handled solely for the purpose of applying security protections and are deleted from our infrastructure within 24 hours of delivery. AppTego does not access, read, or store your source code — because the Service never requires it.

You acknowledge that the Service processes your binary in cloud-based infrastructure and that your binary data will be transmitted to, processed in, and temporarily stored on servers operated by AppTego’s infrastructure providers.

12.1 International data transfers

The Service is operated from the United States. If you access the Service from outside the United States, you acknowledge and consent to the transfer, processing, and storage of your data — including Your Content and any personal data — in the United States and potentially other jurisdictions where AppTego’s infrastructure providers operate. These jurisdictions may not provide the same level of data protection as your home jurisdiction. By using the Service, you consent to such transfers. If you are located in the European Economic Area (EEA), United Kingdom, or Switzerland, you acknowledge that your data may be transferred to countries that have not received an adequacy decision from the European Commission, and you consent to such transfers as necessary for the performance of the Service.

12.2 Data breach notification

The Free plan does not include any obligation by AppTego to notify you of security incidents or data breaches affecting the Service or your data. AppTego may, at its sole discretion, provide notice of significant security events but is under no obligation to do so. If you require contractual breach notification commitments, they are available only under paid plan agreements.

13. Termination

13.1 By you

You may stop using the Service and close your account at any time by contacting us or through the account settings in the dashboard.

13.2 By AppTego

AppTego reserves the right to suspend or terminate your access to the Service at any time, for any reason or no reason, with or without notice. Reasons for termination may include, but are not limited to: violation of these Terms, abusive or excessive usage, suspected fraudulent activity, or any behaviour that may harm the Service, AppTego, or other users.

13.3 Effect of termination

Upon termination, your right to use the Service ceases immediately. AppTego may delete your account data, configurations, and any associated data at any time following termination. AppTego has no obligation to retain, export, or provide any of your data after termination.

The following sections survive termination: 5 (Acceptable Use), 5.1 (Reverse Engineering), 5.2 (Export Compliance), 6 (Intellectual Property), 7 (Disclaimers), 8 (No Support, No SLA), 9 (Assumption of Risk), 10 (Limitation of Liability), 11 (Indemnification), 12 (Data Handling), and 15 (Governing Law and Dispute Resolution).

14. Changes to these terms

AppTego may update, modify, or replace these Terms at any time. We will make reasonable efforts to notify you of material changes (for example, by posting a notice on the Service or emailing you), but it is your responsibility to review these Terms periodically. Your continued use of the Service after any changes take effect constitutes your acceptance of the updated Terms.

If you do not agree to the updated Terms, you must stop using the Service and close your account.

15. Governing law and dispute resolution

These Terms shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Wyoming, United States, without regard to its conflict of law provisions.

15.1 Mandatory binding arbitration

Any dispute, controversy, or claim arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Service, including the formation, interpretation, breach, or termination thereof, shall be resolved exclusively by final and binding arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association (AAA) under its Consumer Arbitration Rules. The arbitration shall be conducted by a single arbitrator in the State of Wyoming. The arbitrator’s decision shall be final and binding, and judgment on the award rendered may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof.

You agree that any arbitration under these Terms will take place on an individual basis. You waive any right to participate in a class action lawsuit, class-wide arbitration, or any other representative proceeding, whether as a named plaintiff, class member, or in any other capacity. The arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person’s claims and may not otherwise preside over any form of a representative or class proceeding.

If this class action waiver is found to be unenforceable, then the entirety of this arbitration provision shall be null and void, and the dispute shall be resolved exclusively in the state or federal courts located in the State of Wyoming.

15.2 Exceptions to arbitration

Notwithstanding Section 15.1, either party may seek injunctive or other equitable relief in any court of competent jurisdiction to prevent the actual or threatened infringement, misappropriation, or violation of intellectual property rights or confidential information. Additionally, claims within the jurisdiction of a small claims court in the State of Wyoming may be brought in such court.

15.3 Jurisdiction

For any matters not subject to arbitration, or where arbitration is found unenforceable, any dispute shall be resolved exclusively in the state or federal courts located in the State of Wyoming, and you consent to the personal jurisdiction of such courts.

16. General provisions

Entire agreement. These Terms, together with the Privacy Policy and any other policies referenced herein, constitute the entire agreement between you and AppTego regarding the Service and supersede all prior or contemporaneous agreements, negotiations, and understandings.
Severability. If any provision of these Terms is found to be unenforceable or invalid, that provision shall be limited or eliminated to the minimum extent necessary, and the remaining provisions shall remain in full force and effect.
No waiver. AppTego’s failure to enforce any right or provision of these Terms shall not constitute a waiver of that right or provision.
Assignment. You may not assign or transfer your rights or obligations under these Terms without AppTego’s prior written consent. AppTego may assign its rights and obligations without restriction.
Force majeure. AppTego shall not be liable for any failure or delay in performing its obligations under these Terms due to causes beyond its reasonable control, including but not limited to natural disasters, war, terrorism, pandemics, government actions, power failures, internet or telecommunications failures, or third-party service outages.
Notices. Notices to you may be sent to the email address associated with your account. Notices to AppTego should be sent to legal@apptego.com.
Third-party beneficiaries. These Terms do not and are not intended to confer any rights or remedies upon any person or entity other than the parties to these Terms. No third party — including your end users, customers, or any other person who interacts with applications processed through the Service — is an intended beneficiary of these Terms or has any right to enforce any provision hereof.
Headings. Section headings are for convenience only and do not affect the interpretation of these Terms.
