1. Agreement to these terms
By visiting bettadev.com, downloading or using an application published by BettaDev, or engaging BettaDev for development work, you agree to these Terms of Service. If you do not agree, please do not use the website or the apps.
You must be at least 13 years old, or the minimum age of digital consent in your country if that is higher, to use our apps.
2. Who we are
BettaDev is an independent software studio operated as a sole proprietorship by Emir Kaan Çatı, based in İstanbul, Türkiye. BettaDev is a trading name, not a separate legal entity. Contact: hello@bettadev.com.
3. Licence to use our apps
We grant you a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable licence to install and use our applications on devices you own or control, for your own use, subject to these terms and to the rules of the store you downloaded from.
You may not:
- copy, sell, sublicense, rent or redistribute the app;
- reverse engineer, decompile or attempt to extract the source code, except where that right cannot be excluded by law;
- remove or obscure any copyright, trademark or other proprietary notice;
- use the app to build a competing product.
4. Accounts
Some apps require an account. You are responsible for keeping your credentials secure and for everything that happens under your account. Give accurate information, and tell us promptly at support@bettadev.com if you believe your account has been compromised.
You can delete your account at any time — see the data deletion section of our Privacy Policy.
5. Acceptable use
Do not use our website or apps to:
- break the law, or infringe anyone's rights;
- upload malware, or attempt to gain unauthorised access to our systems or another user's account;
- interfere with, overload or disrupt the service, including by automated scraping or excessive requests;
- harass, abuse, impersonate or endanger anyone;
- upload content that is illegal, hateful, or sexually exploitative of minors.
We may suspend or terminate access that violates this section, with notice where reasonably possible.
6. Purchases and subscriptions
Paid features in our mobile apps are sold through Apple's and Google's in-app purchase systems. Those platforms process the payment, set the currency and tax, and hold the billing relationship with you. BettaDev never receives your payment card details.
- Auto-renewal. Subscriptions renew automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period.
- Cancelling. Manage or cancel in your Apple ID subscription settings or your Google Play subscriptions. Uninstalling the app does not cancel a subscription.
- Refunds. Refunds are handled by Apple and Google under their own policies. If you believe you were charged in error, contact them first — and tell us at support@bettadev.com so we can help.
- Price changes. We will give notice before any price change takes effect, and you can cancel before it applies.
- EU/UK withdrawal right. Where a statutory right of withdrawal applies to digital content, it is exercised through the store that sold you the item.
7. Your content
Anything you create or upload in our apps remains yours. You grant BettaDev only the limited licence needed to host, back up, sync and display that content so the app can work for you. We do not use your content to train models, we do not sell it, and we do not look at it except when you explicitly ask us to for support.
You are responsible for having the rights to any content you upload.
8. Intellectual property
The BettaDev name, logo, the betta mark, the website, and the software we publish are owned by BettaDev and protected by copyright and trademark law. Nothing in these terms transfers those rights to you.
Work produced for a client under a signed agreement is governed by that agreement — see section 14.
9. Third-party services
Our website and apps rely on third parties — app stores, hosting, payment, analytics and, in our free apps, advertising providers. Their own terms apply to your use of their services, and we are not responsible for their content, policies or availability.
Some BettaDev apps are free and supported by advertising delivered through Google AdMob. We do not control which individual ads are shown and are not responsible for the products or claims they advertise. Ads are capped at the “General audiences” content rating, and how advertising data is handled is set out in our Privacy Policy.
10. Availability and changes
We aim to keep everything running, but we do not guarantee uninterrupted availability. We may change, suspend or discontinue any feature. If we discontinue a paid service entirely, we will give reasonable notice and, where fair, a pro-rata refund of any prepaid period.
We may update these terms. Material changes will be announced in the app or by email before they take effect; continuing to use the service afterwards means you accept the updated terms.
11. Termination
You may stop using our services at any time by deleting your account and uninstalling the apps. We may suspend or terminate your access if you materially breach these terms, if required by law, or if continuing would create a security or legal risk. Sections that by their nature should survive termination — intellectual property, disclaimers, limitation of liability, governing law — continue to apply.
12. Disclaimers
Except where the law says otherwise, our website and apps are provided “as is” and “as available”, without warranties of any kind, whether express or implied, including merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose and non-infringement. We do not warrant that the service will be error-free, secure or uninterrupted.
Nothing here excludes rights that cannot be excluded under the consumer law of your country. If you are a consumer in the EEA or the UK, your statutory rights are unaffected.
13. Limitation of liability
To the maximum extent permitted by law, BettaDev is not liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential or punitive damages, or for loss of profits, revenue, data or goodwill, arising out of your use of the website or apps.
Our total aggregate liability for any claim relating to the website or a published app is limited to the greater of (a) the amount you paid us for that app in the 12 months before the claim, or (b) 50 USD.
We do not exclude liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence, for fraud, or for anything else that cannot be limited by law.
14. Client engagements
Development work for clients is governed by a separate signed agreement (proposal, statement of work or contract), which takes precedence over these terms for that work. Unless that agreement says otherwise:
- ownership of deliverables transfers to the client on receipt of final payment;
- BettaDev retains ownership of its pre-existing tools, libraries and know-how, and grants the client a perpetual licence to use them within the deliverables;
- BettaDev may describe the work publicly and show it in a portfolio, unless the client asks us not to;
- quotes are valid for 30 days, and invoices are payable within 14 days of issue;
- third-party costs — developer accounts, hosting, licences — are billed at cost or paid directly by the client.
15. Governing law and disputes
These terms are governed by the laws of Türkiye, without regard to its conflict-of-law rules, and the courts of İstanbul, Türkiye have jurisdiction. If you are a consumer, you keep the protection of the mandatory laws of your country of residence and may bring proceedings there.
Before starting formal proceedings, please contact us — most issues are resolved with one email.
