SYNCTerms of Use
This page mirrors the agreement presented inside the SYNCopated app on first launch and after any substantive update. The version number on this page always matches what the app's server expects; if the app asks you to re-accept, this is what you're re-accepting.
Draft notice. The current v1 text is a tester-signoff draft. A final legal pass is planned before wider release.
By using SYNCopated ("the App"), you agree to the following terms. If you do not agree, do not accept the agreement in the app — the App will not be usable, and you may sign out.
1. Licence
Cape Wesley grants you a non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable licence to use the App on devices you own or control, subject to these terms.
2. What the App does
SYNCopated is a remote music-lesson tool. It transmits audio, video, and MIDI between teachers and students, stores per-room content (scores, notes, assignments, lesson plans, practice logs), and sends push notifications for scheduling and reminder purposes.
3. Acceptable use
You agree not to:
- Use the App to harass, abuse, or harm any other user.
- Record, redistribute, or publicly broadcast a session without the consent of every participant.
- Upload content you do not have the right to share (including copyrighted scores for which you lack a licence).
- Attempt to bypass the App's capacity limits, authentication, or any technical controls protecting other users' content.
4. Content ownership
You retain ownership of content you upload (scores, notes, recordings). You grant Cape Wesley the limited right to store and transmit that content to other participants in your rooms and events, and to operate the App on your behalf.
5. Session content and recording
The App does not record lesson audio or video by default. Any participant who chooses to record locally is responsible for obtaining consent from every other participant. Cape Wesley does not log session audio on its servers.
6. Push notifications
The App uses Apple Push Notification service to send:
- Lesson reminders (15 minutes before a scheduled lesson)
- Assignment reminders (48 / 24 / 2 hours before a due date)
- End-of-lesson summaries from teachers (if the recipient has opted in)
You can disable any of these in Settings or through the opt-out controls exposed in the student profile wizard.
7. Data retention
Your account is deletable at any time from Settings → Delete account. Deletion removes your user record and cascades to every room you own, membership you hold, uploaded score, assignment, and lesson plan.
8. Disclaimers
The App is provided "as is" without warranty of any kind. Cape Wesley makes no warranty that the App will be uninterrupted, error-free, or meet any particular requirement. Your use of the App is at your own risk.
9. Limitation of liability
To the maximum extent permitted by law, Cape Wesley's total liability to you for any claim arising out of these terms or the App is limited to the amount you paid for the App in the twelve months preceding the claim.
10. Changes to this agreement
Cape Wesley may update these terms. When it does, the version will be bumped and the App will present the new agreement on next launch. Continuing to use the App after a version bump requires acceptance of the new terms.
11. Governing law
These terms are governed by the laws of the jurisdiction where Cape Wesley is registered. Disputes are resolved in that jurisdiction's courts.
