SIMPLYMARK
Last Updated: May 15, 2026
IMPORTANT NOTICE: BY DOWNLOADING, INSTALLING, ACCESSING, OR USING THIS APPLICATION, YOU AGREE TO BE LEGALLY BOUND BY THESE TERMS IN THEIR ENTIRETY. IF YOU DO NOT AGREE WITH ANY OF THEM, DO NOT USE THE APPLICATION.
1. ACCEPTANCE OF TERMS
By downloading, installing, accessing, or using SimplyMark ("the Application"), you ("the User") agree to be legally bound by these Terms of Use ("the Terms"), including the Privacy Policy available at https://stayarts.com/simplymark/privacy. If you do not agree with any of these terms, do not use the Application. Continued use after any update to the Terms implies your acceptance of them.
These Terms constitute the complete agreement between you and the Developer regarding the Application, and supersede any prior verbal or written agreement.
2. SERVICE DESCRIPTION
SimplyMark is a watermarking application for iOS that allows Users to add overlaid text and images to their photographs quickly and simply. The Application operates exclusively through local processing on the User's device, using Apple's native technologies.
The Application DOES NOT transmit, collect, or store on external servers any images, personal data, or User metadata. All processing occurs entirely on your device. Any technical data collected by Apple Inc. through its platforms (such as App Store or TestFlight) is managed exclusively by Apple according to their own policies, and never reaches the Developer's servers.
The Developer reserves the right to modify, suspend, or discontinue any functionality of the Application at any time, with or without prior notice, without generating any liability to the User.
3. SUBSCRIPTION
3.1 Subscription Model and Features
FREE MODE:
The Application offers a functional free mode that allows Users to:
• Access the complete watermark editor.
• Export a limited number of watermarked images per day.
• Images exported in free mode include an application watermark.
The daily export limit is stored in the device's synced Keychain and automatically resets every 24 hours. This limit is designed to persist after Application reinstallation and may sync across the User's devices when iCloud Keychain is enabled.
Free mode users will see promotions for other applications published by the same developer. These promotions DO NOT use third-party advertising networks or cross-app behavioral tracking.
PRO MODE (SUBSCRIPTION):
The subscription offers:
• Unlimited exports without daily restriction.
• Removal of the application watermark from exported images.
• Removal of all promotions.
• Export and import of custom text templates.
The Developer offers subscription plans whose prices are displayed in the App Store according to the User's region at the time of purchase. The Developer reserves the right to modify subscription plan prices at any time and in accordance with Apple's policies. The price in effect at the time of subscription is applicable until the next renewal.
3.2 Automatic Renewal
Subscriptions automatically renew at the end of each period (monthly or annual), unless the User cancels at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. The renewal charge will be made to the User's Apple account within 24 hours prior to the expiration of the active period.
3.3 Cancellation and Expiration
Users may cancel their subscription at any time from their App Store account settings. Cancellation will take effect at the end of the current subscription period, with no proportional refund for unused time.
Upon expiration or cancellation of the subscription, the User will lose access to premium features (also called PRO), specifically:
• The ability to perform unlimited exports (will be limited to the daily export number of free mode).
• Removal of the application watermark from exported images.
• Removal of promotions.
• The ability to export and import custom text templates.
Users may continue using the editor and exporting watermarked images within the daily limit of free mode.
3.4 Restore Purchases
Users may restore their subscription on any Apple device linked to the same Apple ID used for the original purchase. Restoration is managed through the functionality provided by the Apple App Store and allows Users to regain access to premium features without making a new payment, provided the subscription is active.
3.5 Plan Changes
Users may change between subscription plans (for example, from monthly to annual or vice versa) at any time from their App Store account settings. Plan changes, billing adjustments, and applicable credits are managed exclusively by Apple according to their subscription policies.
3.6 Payment Processing
All payments and renewals are managed exclusively through the Apple App Store and are subject to Apple's Terms and Conditions. The Developer does not access, store, or process User payment data at any time. Prices may vary by User's country and are subject to applicable local taxes according to Apple's policies.
3.7 Refunds
Refunds are subject exclusively to Apple's Refund Policy. The Developer does not process or manage refunds directly. To request a refund, Users must contact Apple through reportaproblem.apple.com.
3.8 Cross-Promotion
Free mode users will see promotions for other applications published by the same developer. These promotions:
• Are created and managed directly by the Developer.
• Are NOT provided by third-party advertising networks.
• DO NOT use cross-app behavioral tracking.
• DO NOT require App Tracking Transparency (ATT) permission.
• May appear in different locations within the Application.
The Developer reserves the right to modify, at any time and without prior notice, the form, location, frequency, quantity, and presentation of promotions shown to free mode users.
Promotions are automatically hidden for users with an active subscription.
Independent Promoted Applications: The promoted applications are independent products, each with their own functionalities, terms of use, and privacy policies. The Developer assumes no responsibility whatsoever for the content, operation, performance, availability, errors, damages, or any other aspect related to the promoted applications. Each promoted application is a separate product and any problem, claim, or inquiry related to such applications should be directed to the support of the corresponding application.
By interacting with the promotions and downloading or using any of the promoted applications, the User agrees to be subject to the specific terms of use and privacy policies of each application. The User acknowledges and agrees that it is their responsibility to review and accept the terms and policies of each promoted application before use.
The User acknowledges and agrees that viewing promotions is part of the free mode experience and that they can remove them at any time through subscription.

THE USER IS SOLELY AND EXCLUSIVELY RESPONSIBLE, IN AN ABSOLUTE AND NON-WAIVABLE MANNER, FOR ENSURING THAT ALL ELEMENTS USED IN THE APPLICATION — INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION: PHOTOGRAPHS, IMAGES, TEXTS, FONTS, AND ANY OTHER CONTENT — ARE THEIR PROPERTY OR HAVE EXPRESS AUTHORIZATION, VALID LICENSE, OR SUFFICIENT LEGAL PERMISSION FOR USE.
This responsibility applies without exception to:
• The base photographs or images on which the watermark is applied.

• Texts, phrases, or written content added by the User.
• Fonts selected by the User.
• Any other visual or textual element introduced by the User into the Application.
THE DEVELOPER DOES NOT VERIFY, MONITOR, OR HAVE ACCESS TO ANY CONTENT USED BY THE USER IN THE APPLICATION. THE DEVELOPER IS A NEUTRAL TECHNICAL TOOL PROVIDER AND ASSUMES NO RESPONSIBILITY, DIRECT OR INDIRECT, ARISING FROM THE CONTENT THE USER CHOOSES TO PROCESS.
5.2 Ownership of Processed Content
The User retains all rights to the content they process with the Application. The Developer does not claim, access, transfer, or use such content at any time.

6. FONTS
The fonts included in the Application are open source and do not require an internet connection for use. The Developer does not guarantee the suitability of any font for a specific purpose.
The User is solely responsible for verifying that the fonts they select are appropriate for their specific use, including any commercial use, and for complying with the individual license terms of each font. The Developer assumes no responsibility arising from the User's use of fonts included in the Application.
7. LOCAL PROCESSING, PRIVACY, AND DATA
7.1 Exclusive On-Device Processing
All images processed through the Application remain entirely on the User's device. The Application does not require an internet connection to operate its core functions nor does it transmit images, thumbnails, metadata, processing results, or any other derived data to external servers.
7.2 No-Tracking Policy — Current Status and Future Changes
In its current version, the Application does not collect, track, or transmit any User personal data. SimplyMark does not incorporate behavioral analysis systems, usage tracking, or user identifiers.
The Developer reserves the right to incorporate in future versions third-party technical tools — such as error reporting systems or anonymous performance analytics — solely for the purpose of improving the Application's stability and operation. In such case, the Developer will update the Privacy Policy prior to implementation of such changes, and such data will always be anonymous and non-identifiable. Continued use of the Application after the update will constitute acceptance of the new terms.
7.3 Technical Data Through Apple
Apple Inc. may collect anonymous technical data (error reports, performance statistics) through its own platforms (App Store Connect Analytics, TestFlight), in accordance with Apple's Privacy Policy. This data is managed exclusively by Apple and never reaches the Developer's servers. It does not include images or personally identifiable User information.
7.4 Storage, Backups, and Data Loss
Files and images generated with the Application are stored exclusively locally on the User's device. Text templates created and saved by the User are stored in the device's file system and may be accessible through the iOS Files app. Management, organization, and backup of such template files is the User's exclusive responsibility. The Developer does not perform, manage, or guarantee backups of any User content.
Free Export Counter: For free mode users, the daily export counter is stored in the device's synced Keychain. This counter may automatically sync across the User's devices if iCloud Keychain is enabled. The Developer does not guarantee the continuous availability, accuracy, or synchronization of this counter and will not be responsible for its loss, corruption, lack of synchronization, or any related problem due to causes attributable to iCloud, changes to the User's iCloud account, or any other cause beyond their control.
The User is solely and exclusively responsible for performing periodic backups of their content through iCloud, iTunes, or other solutions of their preference.
The Developer assumes no responsibility for loss, damage, corruption, or inaccessibility of data caused by any reason, including:
• Failures or breakdown of the User's device.
• Installation of iOS updates, whether voluntary or automatic.
• Installation of Application updates.
• Uninstallation or reinstallation of the Application.
• Factory reset or device restoration.
• Incompatibilities with future versions of iOS or other system software.
• Problems with iCloud Keychain or the User's iCloud account.
• Force majeure events or any other factor beyond the Developer's control.
THE USER ACKNOWLEDGES AND EXPRESSLY AGREES THAT USE OF THE APPLICATION AND STORAGE OF THEIR FILES IS AT THEIR OWN RISK, AND THAT THE DEVELOPER WILL NOT BE RESPONSIBLE IN ANY CASE FOR DATA OR FILE LOSS, REGARDLESS OF ITS CAUSE.
7.5 Device Permissions
The Application will request access to the User's photo library exclusively to import images and save processed results. Additionally, the Application may request access to the file system ("Files" app) to allow Users to export and import text templates in .smtpl format (SimplyMark Template). Exported templates contain only text configurations and design parameters, without including images or personal data. This access operates according to the iOS permissions system and can be revoked at any time from device Settings. Revocation of permissions may limit or prevent use of essential Application features.
8. PROCESSING AND IMAGE QUALITY
The Application may apply technical adjustments to processed images — including resizing — in order to optimize performance on the User's device. These adjustments are inherent to the Application's operation and are part of the technical process of watermark generation.
THE DEVELOPER DOES NOT GUARANTEE THAT EXPORTED IMAGES WILL MAINTAIN THE SAME DIMENSIONS, RESOLUTION, OR TECHNICAL CHARACTERISTICS AS THE ORIGINAL IMAGES. THE USER EXPRESSLY AGREES THAT SUCH TECHNICAL ADJUSTMENTS DO NOT CONSTITUTE A DEFECT IN THE APPLICATION NOR GIVE RISE TO ANY TYPE OF CLAIM OR COMPENSATION.
Additionally, the Application implements technical limits on simultaneous image processing for the purpose of preserving device performance, avoiding memory failures, and preventing unexpected Application closures. These limits are necessary to ensure a stable experience and may vary depending on device model and iOS version. The Developer reserves the right to adjust these limits in future updates without prior notice.

The Developer shall not be liable to the User or third parties for any modification, suspension, or interruption of the Application's availability.
