We reserve the right to investigate reports and, if warranted, suspend or terminate accounts found to be in violation of these Terms.
We will cooperate with law enforcement authorities when legally required.
7. End-to-End Encryption

9. Bracelet Compatibility
Hapt is designed to work with Totwoo K2 smart bracelets.
We are not affiliated with Totwoo. Hapt is an independent third-party companion app.
Bracelet functionality depends on Bluetooth connectivity and may vary by device and operating system.
We do not guarantee compatibility with all Totwoo models or firmware versions.
10. Third-Party Services
Hapt relies on third-party services including Google Firebase, Apple Sign-In, and Google Sign-In. These services are governed by their own terms and privacy policies.
We are not responsible for the availability, accuracy, or conduct of any third-party service.
Totwoo bracelets are manufactured and sold by third parties. We make no warranties regarding the bracelet hardware.

The App, its design, code, and content (excluding user-generated content) are owned by us and protected by applicable intellectual property laws. You are granted a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to use the App for personal, non-commercial purposes.
12. Disclaimer of Warranties
Hapt is provided "as is" and "as available" without warranties of any kind, whether express or implied, including but not limited to implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement. We do not warrant that:
The App will be uninterrupted, error-free, or secure.
Bluetooth connectivity will be reliable in all conditions.
Messages will always be delivered successfully.
The App will be compatible with future bracelet firmware updates.

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, we shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages arising from your use of the App. Our total aggregate liability shall not exceed the amount you paid for the App in the 12 months preceding the claim, or €50, whichever is greater.
Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits liability that cannot be excluded or limited under applicable law, including liability for fraud or willful misconduct.

16. Changes to Terms
