4.2 You are responsible for obtaining and paying for the equipment and internet connectivity required to access the services.
4.3 We reserve the right to modify, suspend, or discontinue any part of the services at any time without prior notice. MindUp is not liable for any resulting impact on your access.
4.4 You use the services at your own risk. We are not responsible for damage to your devices or data loss arising from use of the services.
5.1 All text, images, logos, software, data, and other materials on the service (excluding User Content) are the property of MindUp or our licensors and are protected by intellectual property laws.
5.2 You may not reproduce, distribute, decompile, reverse-engineer, or otherwise exploit any part of the service without our express written consent.
5.3 You retain intellectual property rights in content you submit ("User Content"). By submitting User Content, you grant MindUp a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free, transferable, perpetual license to use, display, distribute, and perform it within the scope of the service.
5.4 MindUp grants you a non-transferable, non-exclusive license to use the services for your personal, non-commercial purposes.
6.1 If you download our application from an app store (Apple App Store, Google Play, etc.), you agree to comply with that store's terms of use.
6.2 You agree to pay all fees charged by the app store. The app store (and its subsidiaries) is a third-party beneficiary of these Terms.
6.3 You release MindUp, its officers, employees, and agents from any claims arising from or related to the app store.
7.1 The application may be downloaded for free, but certain features require a paid subscription ("Purchase"). Purchases may be made:
7.2 We may change subscription fees at any time. We will provide reasonable notice of price changes before they take effect. If you do not agree to the new price, cancel your subscription before the next billing cycle.
7.3 You authorize us and the applicable payment processor (App Store or Stripe) to charge the payment method you provide.
7.4 Automatic Renewal: Your subscription will automatically renew at the end of each billing cycle unless you cancel before the renewal date. The renewal fee will not exceed the prior period's rate (excluding promotional pricing) unless we provide advance notice.
7.5 Free Trials: We may offer trial subscriptions. All new users are entitled to a free trial quota, which must be redeemed and used within the App. Due to testing, the free trial may not be visible to some users. Unless you cancel before the trial ends, you will automatically be charged for a paid subscription. We reserve the right to limit free trials to one per user.
7.6 If you fail to pay when due, we may suspend or terminate your access to paid features.
7.7 Refunds for App Store Purchases: Refunds for subscriptions purchased through an app store are subject to that store's refund policy. You must contact the store directly — for iOS, see Apple Support; for Android, see Google Play Refunds. In both cases, we may provide certain data (such as your subscription status, account activity, and usage data) to the relevant app store to assist in processing your refund request in a transparent and fair manner. By using our services, purchasing subscriptions through the app store, and submitting refund requests through these platforms, you expressly agree to share necessary account and usage data with the relevant app store for this purpose.
7.8 Refunds for Website (Stripe) Purchases: Please see our Refund Policy for detailed refund terms for purchases made through our website. In the event that a Web-side subscriber initiates a chargeback or payment dispute against MindUp, MindUp reserves the right to immediately suspend or terminate your account and access to all services.
7.9 You acknowledge that Purchases are generally final. MindUp will provide refunds to the extent required by applicable law or as described in our Refund Policy.
Notice to EU Residents: If you are an EU resident, you have a 14-day right of withdrawal. By consenting to immediate performance upon purchase, you acknowledge that this right is forfeited once the digital content is delivered to you.
We may offer a free trial. Unless you cancel at least 24 hours before the trial ends, the subscription fee displayed at signup will be charged automatically.
Subscriptions automatically renew at the end of each period (weekly, monthly, yearly, or as displayed at purchase) until cancelled.
We accept payment through the Apple App Store, Google Play Store, and Stripe (for web purchases). When purchasing via Stripe, your payment card details are processed directly by Stripe and are never stored on our servers. See Stripe's Privacy Policy.
Cancellation stops automatic renewal but does not immediately end access—you retain subscription features until the current paid period expires.
Deleting the application does not cancel your subscription.
We may change subscription fees with reasonable advance notice. If you do not agree, cancel before the change takes effect.
See our Refund Policy for complete details.
9.1 By using the service you represent that:
9.2 You agree not to:
You agree to indemnify and hold harmless MindUp, its officers, directors, employees, and agents from any claims, damages, losses, or expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising from (a) your use of the services, (b) your violation of these Terms, or (c) your violation of any third-party rights.
THE SERVICES ARE 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 SERVICES WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, SECURE, OR ERROR-FREE. YOUR USE IS AT YOUR OWN RISK.
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, MINDUP AND ITS SERVICE PROVIDERS SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR ANY LOSS OF PROFITS, REVENUE, DATA, OR GOODWILL ARISING FROM YOUR USE OF THE SERVICES.
MINDUP'S TOTAL AGGREGATE LIABILITY ARISING FROM THESE TERMS OR YOUR USE OF THE SERVICES SHALL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF (A) THE AMOUNTS YOU PAID TO MINDUP IN THE 12 MONTHS PRECEDING THE CLAIM, OR (B) ONE HUNDRED U.S. DOLLARS ($100).
You and MindUp agree that any dispute arising from or relating to these Terms or the services shall be resolved exclusively through binding individual arbitration, not through class actions, representative proceedings, or jury trials. The U.S. Federal Arbitration Act governs the interpretation of this section.
Either party may (i) seek relief in small claims court if the claim qualifies, or (ii) seek injunctive relief to prevent infringement of intellectual property rights.
Arbitration will be administered by the American Arbitration Association ("AAA") under its Consumer Arbitration Rules. Hearings will take place in the county of your residence unless both parties agree otherwise. Information about AAA and its rules is available at www.adr.org or by calling 1-800-778-7879.
Filing, administration, and arbitration fees are governed by AAA Rules. We will not seek to recover administration or arbitration fees unless the arbitrator determines your claim is frivolous.
YOU AND MINDUP EACH WAIVE THE RIGHT TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION, COLLECTIVE ACTION, OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. THE ARBITRATOR MAY NOT CONSOLIDATE MORE THAN ONE PERSON'S CLAIMS. If this waiver is found unenforceable, this entire Section 13 shall be void.
14.1 If arbitration does not apply, all parties consent to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of Hong Kong, China.
14.2 EU Residents: Nothing in these Terms deprives you of the protections granted by the mandatory laws of your country of residence. You may submit disputes to the competent courts of your country of habitual residence.
14.3 These Terms and any disputes shall be governed by the laws of Hong Kong, China, without regard to conflict-of-laws principles.
15.1 Our failure to enforce any provision does not constitute a waiver of that provision or any other provision.
15.2 If any provision is found invalid or unenforceable, the remaining provisions remain in full force and effect.
15.3 These Terms, together with the Privacy Policy and Refund Policy, constitute the entire agreement between you and MindUp regarding the services.
15.4 We may assign our rights and obligations under these Terms. You may not assign your rights without our written consent.
15.5 All communications through the services are electronic. You agree that electronic communications satisfy any legal requirement for written communications.
15.6 MindUp shall not be liable for failure to perform due to circumstances beyond its reasonable control (force majeure).
We are dedicated to analyzing key ideas and insights from books, organizing them through in-depth research, and presenting them as original summaries & insights from non-fiction books to help users better understand and apply this knowledge. The service provided by MindUp is not a summary of book content but an original work formed after in-depth analysis and organization of literary materials, presented in text and audio formats. Our goal is to distill the core ideas from books and present them to users in a clear, structured text and audio format.
In this process, we reference the original book sources to convey the context of the content to our users. This usage is both reasonable and necessary because citing source materials is crucial for identifying and associating specific ideas with their background. By mentioning relevant sources, users can accurately understand the essence of these ideas and further explore the complete book content if needed.
This approach not only respects the integrity of original literary works but also provides users with an effective way to explore and absorb the essential parts of the content through text and audio expression. We believe that this method of disseminating knowledge can offer practical value and inspiration to users while also promoting the widespread sharing and dissemination of knowledge.
