Terms of Service

Verdict is operated by Ramzi Zeineddine, an individual trading as Verdict, from Massachusetts, United States. “We” and “us” mean that person. Using the service means accepting these terms; if you do not accept them, do not use it.

Verdict reads app builds you upload and reports the problems an App Store or Google Play reviewer would be likely to raise, each cited to the published guideline or policy it relates to.

A report is an informed assessment, not a prediction you can rely on and not a guarantee. Store review involves human judgement and policies that change without notice. A clean report does not mean your app will be approved, a poor one does not mean it will be rejected, and neither creates any liability on our part for the outcome of a submission.

Verdict is an independent tool. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or acting for Apple Inc. or Google LLC, and nothing it produces is an official view of either. You remain bound by their agreements and responsible for your own submissions.

You must be at least 16 and able to enter a binding contract. You are responsible for what happens under your account, for keeping your sign-in and API keys secure, and for telling us promptly at support@appverdict.net if you believe either has been compromised.

Only upload builds you own or are authorised to analyse. Uploading somebody else’s application without their permission is your breach of these terms, not ours.

You agree not to:

• upload anything unlawful, or any build whose analysis would infringe another person’s rights;
• attempt to disrupt, overload, reverse engineer, or gain unauthorised access to the service or the accounts of others;
• work around rate limits, plan restrictions, or the metering on any feature;
• resell, white-label, or redistribute reports as your own product without our written agreement.

You keep every right you have in the builds and text you submit. You grant us only the licence needed to run the service — to store, process, and analyse what you upload in order to produce your report, and where you choose to use an AI feature, to pass the relevant material to the provider named in our privacy policy. That licence exists for no other purpose, and it ends when the content is deleted.

We do not use your builds or reports to train models, and we do not sell them.

Scanning is free. The App Pass is a one-time purchase of $49.99: it unlocks the full report for one app of your choice — its iOS and Android builds alike — for 30 days from purchase, with unlimited rescans of that app. A pass attaches to the first app you open a full report for and does not transfer to another app. It is not a subscription: nothing renews, and when it ends you keep your scans and their history. Team costs $49.99 per month or $499.99 per year and covers 5 members across up to 10 separate client workspaces. All prices are in US dollars and exclude any tax that applies where you are.

Team subscriptions are billed in advance through Stripe and renew automatically at the end of each period until cancelled. You can cancel at any time from your account. Cancelling stops the next renewal and leaves your plan running to the end of the period you have already paid for. App Pass purchases are one-off charges through Stripe and never renew.

Except where the law says otherwise, payments are non-refundable and we do not pro-rate a subscription period you cancel part way through, or an App Pass you stop using. If you are a consumer in the UK or EU you have 14 days from purchase to withdraw and receive a refund; by opening a full report or starting a scan on a paid purchase within that window you ask us to begin immediately and accept that the right ends once we have fully performed.

If we change a price, we will tell you before the change applies to your renewal, and you may cancel instead.

We aim to keep Verdict available and working, but it is offered without any uptime commitment. Maintenance, upstream provider failures, and outages happen. We may change, add, or withdraw features; if we withdraw something material from a paid plan, you may cancel and we will refund the unused part of the period.

You may stop using the service and delete your account at any time. We may suspend or close an account that breaches these terms, that is being used to harm the service or other users, or where we are required to by law — with notice where it is reasonable to give it, and immediately where it is not. On closure your access ends and your data is deleted in line with the privacy policy.

If you believe something on Verdict infringes your copyright or other intellectual property, write to support@appverdict.net with enough detail to identify the work, where it appears, your contact details, and a statement that you are the rights holder or authorised to act for them. We investigate every notice and remove or disable infringing material where a complaint is made out. We also close the accounts of repeat infringers.

Reports cite App Store Review Guidelines and Google Play policies by their section number and heading in order to identify the rule being discussed. The analysis and wording around each citation are ours; the underlying guidelines belong to Apple and Google, who publish them.

The service, its rule engine, its interface, and the Verdict name remain ours. Your subscription is a right to use the service, not a transfer of any of it. You may freely use and share the reports produced from your own builds.

Verdictis provided “as is” and “as available”. To the fullest extent the law allows, we exclude all implied warranties, including merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement, and we do not warrant that the service will be uninterrupted, error-free, or that any report is complete or accurate.

To the fullest extent the law allows, we are not liable for indirect, incidental, special, or consequential loss, nor for lost profits, lost revenue, lost data, or the cost of a delayed or rejected app submission — including where a report missed a problem or raised one that did not exist.

Our total liability for all claims relating to the service is limited to the greater of the amount you paid us in the twelve months before the claim arose, or fifty US dollars.

Nothing here excludes liability that cannot lawfully be excluded, including for death or personal injury caused by negligence, for fraud, or any statutory right a consumer has that cannot be waived.

If a claim is brought against us because of what you uploaded or how you used the service in breach of these terms, you agree to cover the resulting losses and reasonable legal costs.

We may update these terms. The date above changes when we do, and for a material change we will notify account holders by email before it takes effect. Continuing to use the service afterwards means accepting the revised terms; if you do not, cancel before they apply.

These terms are governed by the laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, without regard to its conflict-of-laws rules, and the state and federal courts of Massachusetts have exclusive jurisdiction over any dispute. If you are a consumer, this does not deprive you of the protection of the mandatory laws of the country you live in, and you may also bring proceedings there.

If any provision is found unenforceable, the rest continues to apply.
