Terms of Use

Every collaboration has its understandings, spoken or not. These Terms of Use set out ours. They form an agreement between you and Clio AI: Creative Writing, the developer of the Clio AI: Creative Writing app, and they take effect on 10 November 2026. Please read them with the same attention you would give a good first paragraph.

The quiet act of agreement

By downloading, opening or using Clio, you accept these Terms. If you do not accept them, the right course is simply not to use the app. No signature is required; continued use is the signature.

What you may do with the app

We grant you a personal, limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable and revocable licence to use Clio on Apple devices that you own or control, in accordance with these Terms and the usage rules of the Apple App Store. You may not copy, modify, resell, sublicense, reverse engineer or attempt to extract the source code of the app, except to the extent the law expressly allows.

The manners of the house

Use Clio as a writer would use a good desk: for creative work, not for harm. You agree not to use the app to produce or distribute content that is unlawful, that infringes the rights of others, that harasses, threatens or defames anyone, or that exploits minors. You agree not to interfere with our backend, to probe or overload it, to circumvent usage limits or payment, or to use automated means to extract content at scale. We may suspend or restrict access where we reasonably believe these rules have been broken.

Your words remain yours

The prompts and text you submit, and the writing Clio generates in response to them, belong to you as between you and us, to the extent the law allows such content to be owned. You are responsible for what you submit and for how you use what is generated, including checking that it does not infringe anyone else's rights before you publish it. You grant us only the permission needed to process your content on our backend in order to provide the service to you. Because generated text is produced by an automated system, similar results may occasionally be produced for other users, and we cannot promise that any output is unique.

What belongs to us

The app itself, including its design, software, name, logo and other materials we provide, belongs to Clio AI: Creative Writing or its licensors and is protected by intellectual property laws. These Terms do not transfer any of those rights to you beyond the licence described above.

Subscriptions, through Apple's door

Certain features may be offered through paid subscriptions or one-time purchases. All billing is handled by Apple through the Apple App Store and Apple In-App Purchase. Prices and subscription periods are shown in the app before you buy. Subscriptions renew automatically at the end of each period unless you cancel at least 24 hours before the renewal date, and your Apple account will be charged for the renewal. You can manage or cancel a subscription at any time in your Apple account settings; cancellation takes effect at the end of the current period. Refunds are governed by Apple's policies and must be requested from Apple. Deleting the app does not cancel a subscription.

An honest disclaimer

Clio is provided as it is and as available. Generated writing may be inaccurate, incomplete, unexpected or unsuitable for your purpose, and it is offered as a creative aid, not as professional, legal, medical or factual advice. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we disclaim all warranties, express or implied, including warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement and uninterrupted or error-free operation.

The limits of our responsibility

To the fullest extent permitted by law, Clio AI: Creative Writing will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential or punitive damages, or for any loss of data, profits, goodwill or creative work, arising from your use of or inability to use the app. Where liability cannot be excluded, our total liability to you will not exceed the amount you paid for the app or its subscriptions in the twelve months before the claim arose. Nothing in these Terms limits any rights you have under consumer protection laws that cannot be waived.

Apple's place in this agreement

These Terms are between you and us, not Apple. Apple is not responsible for the app or its content, has no obligation to provide maintenance or support for it, and is not a party to any claim you may have relating to it, except as Apple's own terms provide. Your use of the app must also comply with the Apple Media Services Terms and Conditions.

Revisions to the text

We may update these Terms from time to time. When we do, we will revise the effective date below, and where a change is material we will make reasonable efforts to let you know within the app. Continuing to use Clio after a revision takes effect means you accept the revised Terms.

Correspondence

Questions about these Terms may be sent to Clio AI: Creative Writing using the support contact provided on the app's App Store listing or within the app. These Terms are governed by the laws that apply to the developer, without prejudice to any mandatory protections granted to you by the law of the country in which you live. Effective date: 10 November 2026.
