1) Acceptance of These Terms

By downloading, accessing, or using Diggato (the “App”) and related services (collectively, the “Services”), you agree to these Terms and our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, do not use the Services. The Services are intended for lawful use only.

If you are using the Services on behalf of an organization, you represent that you have authority to bind that organization, and “you” includes the organization.

2) Eligibility / Age

The Services are not directed to children under 13. You may not use the Services if you are under 13. If you are between 13 and the age of majority where you live, you may use the Services only with permission of a parent/guardian who agrees to these Terms.

3) The Services

Diggato is a collectibles and item-cataloging system that may allow you to create collections, capture or upload images, generate and edit item metadata (including AI-assisted outputs), run external lookups (including eBay and Discogs), and export your data when you choose.

We may add, remove, or modify features at any time, and we may suspend the Services (in whole or part), including for maintenance, security, or legal reasons.

4) Accounts, Security, and Responsibility

You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account credentials and for all activities under your account. You are also responsible for ensuring that any content you upload is lawful and that you have the rights to use it.

We may require identity verification or additional information to protect the Services, prevent fraud, or comply with law.

5) Your Content, Generated Outputs, and Licenses

5.1 Your Content

“User Content” includes images you upload or capture, item metadata, notes, tags, edits, and other information you create in the Services. You retain ownership of your User Content as between you and us.

5.2 License You Grant to Us

You grant The Hope Studio LLC a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free license to host, store, reproduce, process, transmit, display, and otherwise use your User Content only as necessary to provide the Services you request (including analysis you initiate), operate features like search/sync/export, maintain safety and security, comply with law, and enforce these Terms.

This license ends when your account is deleted and applicable retention periods expire, except for limited retention required or permitted for legal compliance, security, fraud prevention, abuse investigation, or enforcement of these Terms.

5.3 Generated Outputs (AI-Assisted and Third-Party Outputs)

The Services may generate, transform, extract, summarize, classify, estimate, or enrich information using automated processes and third-party services, including artificial intelligence and external data sources (collectively, “Generated Outputs”). Generated Outputs may be incomplete, inaccurate, misleading, offensive, or otherwise unreliable.

You acknowledge that we do not control, supervise, or independently verify Generated Outputs produced by third-party providers or derived from third-party sources, and we may not be able to validate the provenance, accuracy, or completeness of such outputs. All Generated Outputs are provided “AS IS” and “AS AVAILABLE,” with no guarantee of accuracy, completeness, or fitness for any particular purpose.

You are solely responsible for reviewing, validating, and determining whether to rely on any Generated Outputs, including before making decisions, purchases, valuations, attributions, or other actions based on them. Any pricing information, valuation estimates, resale ranges, or market data provided through the Services are automated informational estimates only, may be inaccurate, incomplete, delayed, or outdated, and must not be relied upon as the sole basis for any purchase, sale, listing, investment, insurance, tax, or other financial decision. Such information is not an appraisal, guarantee, offer, recommendation, or financial advice.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, we will use commercially reasonable efforts to provide a functional Services experience consistent with these Terms.

5.4 Feedback

If you provide suggestions or feedback, you grant us the right to use it without restriction or compensation.

6) Prohibited Uses

You agree not to, and not to attempt to, directly or indirectly:

• Upload, store, transmit, generate, or share content that is unlawful, infringing, defamatory, obscene, or that violates privacy or publicity rights.

• Harass, exploit, threaten, or harm others, including through impersonation or deceptive behavior.

• Use the Services to facilitate unlawful activity, evade legal obligations, or violate sanctions or export controls.

• Reverse engineer, decompile, or attempt to discover source code, except to the extent such restriction is prohibited by applicable law.

• Interfere with, disrupt, compromise, or bypass security, access controls, authentication, or rate limits.

• Introduce malware, abuse automation, scrape or harvest data, or otherwise impose an unreasonable load on the Services.

• Use the Services in a way that violates app store rules, platform policies, or third-party provider terms.

• Access or use the Services to build, train, or improve a competing product where prohibited by law.

We may investigate suspected violations and may suspend or terminate accounts, preserve information, and cooperate with lawful requests, consistent with the Privacy Policy.

7) External Lookups and Third-Party Services

The Services may integrate with or rely on third-party services (including hosting, authentication, analytics, payments/subscriptions, AI providers, and third-party marketplaces/databases such as eBay or Discogs). Third parties are not controlled by us. Your use of third-party services is governed by their terms and policies. We are not responsible for third-party services, availability, accuracy, pricing, or content.

8) Permissions, Disclosures, and Consent

The Services may request device permissions (such as camera, photos/files access, and notifications) only for features that require them. Where applicable law or platform rules require prominent in-app disclosure and affirmative consent for collection or use of sensitive data, the Services will provide disclosures and obtain consent as required.

9) Purchases, Subscriptions, and Billing

If the Services offer paid features, purchases may be processed by Apple or Google and may be managed through third-party subscription infrastructure for entitlement validation. Your purchase is also governed by the applicable app store terms. Refunds, renewals, cancellations, and pricing changes are handled by the store and/or as disclosed in the App at the time of purchase.

We may suspend paid features if we cannot validate entitlement signals (including receipt/token validation issues) or if required by law or platform rules.

10) Exporting Your Data

The Services may allow you to export collections and outputs. Exports are initiated by you and may be saved to your device or shared using third-party services depending on your choices. Once an export leaves the Services, we do not control how third parties handle it.

11) Privacy, Data Handling, Retention, and Deletion

Our Privacy Policy describes what we collect, how we use it, who we share it with, retention periods, and deletion controls. Key terms reflected here include:

• We do not sell personal information.

• We do not share personal information for cross-context behavioral advertising.

• Account and user content may be retained until deletion, then up to 30 days, subject to legal/security holds.

• Diagnostics/analytics may be retained up to 12 months, subject to legal/security holds.

• We may preserve information where necessary for fraud/abuse prevention, security, legal compliance, or enforcement of these Terms.

12) Intellectual Property

The Services, including software, UI, branding, and non-User Content materials are owned by The Hope Studio LLC or its licensors and are protected by applicable intellectual property laws. You may not copy, modify, distribute, sell, or lease any part of the Services except as expressly permitted.

13) Copyright Complaints (DMCA – U.S.)

If you believe content in the Services infringes your copyright, contact support@diggato.com with identification of the copyrighted work, identification of the allegedly infringing material, your contact information, a good-faith statement, and a statement under penalty of perjury that the notice is accurate.

14) Suspension and Termination

We may suspend or terminate your access immediately if we believe you violated these Terms, your use poses a security or fraud risk, required by law or platform policy, or needed to protect other users or the Services.

You may stop using the Services at any time. Account deletion options are described in the Privacy Policy.

15) Disclaimers

THE SERVICES (INCLUDING GENERATED OUTPUTS, EXTERNAL LOOKUPS, AND ANY GENERATED OR THIRD-PARTY DATA DISPLAYED OR PROVIDED THROUGH THE SERVICES) ARE PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE.” TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, WE DISCLAIM ALL WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT.

WITHOUT LIMITING THE FOREGOING, WE MAKE NO REPRESENTATIONS OR WARRANTIES REGARDING THE ACCURACY, QUALITY, COMPLETENESS, OR RELIABILITY OF ANY GENERATED OUTPUTS OR THIRD-PARTY DATA, AND WE ARE NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ERRORS, OMISSIONS, OR OUTCOMES RESULTING FROM RELIANCE ON THEM.

We do not guarantee uninterrupted or error-free operation or that content will be preserved without loss.

16) Limitation of Liability

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, THE HOPE STUDIO LLC AND ITS SUPPLIERS/PROVIDERS WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR ANY LOSS OF PROFITS, DATA, OR GOODWILL, ARISING FROM OR RELATED TO THE SERVICES.

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, OUR TOTAL LIABILITY FOR ANY CLAIM WILL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF:

(A) THE AMOUNT YOU PAID US FOR THE SERVICES IN THE 12 MONTHS BEFORE THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM, OR

(B) $100 USD.

Some jurisdictions do not allow certain limitations, so some of the above may not apply to you.

17) Indemnification

You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless The Hope Studio LLC (and its officers, directors, employees, contractors, and agents) from claims, liabilities, damages, losses, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) arising out of your User Content, your use of the Services, your violation of these Terms, or your violation of any law or third-party right.

18) Dispute Resolution; Arbitration; Class Action Waiver (United States)

PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY. IT AFFECTS YOUR RIGHTS, INCLUDING YOUR RIGHT TO FILE A LAWSUIT IN COURT.

18.1 Informal Resolution First

Before initiating arbitration or a court proceeding (where permitted by these Terms), you and The Hope Studio LLC agree to first attempt to resolve the dispute informally. You agree that you may not start a formal proceeding for at least 60 days after notifying the other party of a claim in writing (the “Informal Resolution Period”).

18.2 Arbitration Agreement; Administrator; Rules

Except for eligible small claims matters (Section 18.6), you and The Hope Studio LLC agree that any dispute, claim, or controversy arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Services will be resolved by binding individual arbitration, and not in a court of law.

Arbitration Administrator: American Arbitration Association (“AAA”).

Rules: AAA Consumer Arbitration Rules and AAA Commercial Arbitration Rules, as applicable (the “AAA Rules”). If any AAA Rule conflicts with this arbitration agreement, this arbitration agreement controls.

Arbitration Location / Seat: Nevada County, California.

18.3 Notice of Dispute

If you have a dispute with us, you must first send a written Notice of Dispute (“Notice”) by certified mail to:

Diggato Arbitration, Attn: Legal Department, The Hope Studio LLC, 116 Nevada St., Nevada City, CA 95959, United States.

The Notice must include: (a) your name, mailing address, and the email address associated with your account (if applicable); (b) a description of the dispute and the basis for your claim; (c) the specific relief you seek; and (d) your signature.

If the dispute is not resolved within 60 days after the Notice is received (or immediately upon written denial of the claim), either party may commence arbitration by filing a Demand for Arbitration with the other party and the AAA in accordance with the AAA Rules, or proceed in small claims court if eligible (Section 18.6).

18.4 Class Action Waiver

To the maximum extent permitted by law, you and The Hope Studio LLC agree that any dispute resolution proceedings will be conducted only on an individual basis and not in a class, collective, consolidated, representative, or private attorney general action. The arbitrator may award relief only in favor of the individual party seeking relief and only to the extent necessary to resolve the individual party’s claim.

18.5 Opt-Out

You may opt out of this arbitration agreement by sending an opt-out notice within 30 days after you first become bound by these Terms (the “Opt-Out Deadline”).

To opt out, you must email optout@diggato.com with: (1) your name; (2) your address; (3) your phone number; and (4) a clear statement that you are opting out of the arbitration agreement. Any opt-out notice received after the Opt-Out Deadline will be invalid.

18.6 Small Claims Alternative

If your claim qualifies for small claims court, you or we may choose to have the claim heard in small claims court instead of arbitration. In addition, either party may elect small claims instead of arbitration at any time before an arbitrator is appointed by notifying the other party in writing.

18.7 Severability

If any portion of this Section 18 is found unenforceable, the unenforceable portion will be severed, and the remainder will be enforced to the maximum extent permitted by law. If the class action waiver in Section 18.4 is found unenforceable, then this arbitration agreement will be null and void only as to the class/representative aspect, to the extent required by law.

19) Governing Law

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of California, excluding conflict-of-law rules, except where different law is required to apply by your local mandatory consumer protection statutes.

20) U.S. State and Global Consumer Protections

Nothing in these Terms limits rights you may have under applicable laws, including California consumer and privacy rights (CCPA/CPRA) and non-discrimination for exercising those rights, Nevada privacy rights, and international data protection rights where applicable. Where local law requires specific terms (including warranties, refunds, cooling-off rights, or mandatory dispute forums), those requirements control to the extent they apply.

21) Changes to These Terms

We may update these Terms from time to time. We will post the updated Terms in the App and update the “Last Updated” date. If required by law, we will provide additional notice and/or obtain consent. Continued use after changes become effective means you accept the updated Terms.

22) App Store / Platform Terms

If you download the App from Apple’s App Store or Google Play, your use must also comply with the applicable platform terms. The platform providers are not responsible for the Services, except as required by applicable law.
