Thanks for using Old Notepad. These terms of service (“Terms”) cover your use and access to our services, client software and websites ("Services"). Your agreement is with 1381802 Ontario Inc ("We", "Old Notepad", "The Company"), a company incorporated in Ontario, Canada. By using our Services, you’re agreeing to be bound by these Terms. 

Software

Some of our Services allow you to download client software (“Software”) which may update automatically. So long as you comply with these Terms, we give you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to use the Software, solely to access the Services. To the extent any component of the Software may be offered under an open source license, we’ll make that license available to you and the provisions of that license may expressly override some of these Terms. Unless the following restrictions are prohibited by law, you agree not to reverse engineer or decompile the Services, attempt to do so, or assist anyone in doing so.

Our Stuff

The Services are protected by copyright, trademark, and other Canadian and foreign laws. These Terms do not grant you any right, title, or interest in the Services, others’ content in the Services, Old Notepad trademarks, logos and other brand features.

Your backup files are encrypted using a password that is stored ONLY on your device -- it is not stored on our Services. You agree to use your iOS device's iCloud Keychain to store this password and/or any other data required to provide Services.

Controlling Law

The Terms of Service shall be governed by and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the Province of Ontario and the laws of Canada applicable therein, without regard to principles of conflicts of laws.

Waiver, Severability & Assignment

1381802 Ontario Inc’s failure to enforce a provision is not a waiver of its right to do so later. If a provision is found unenforceable, the remaining provisions of the Terms will remain in full effect and an enforceable term will be substituted reflecting our intent as closely as possible. You may not assign any of your rights under these Terms, and any such attempt will be void. 1381802 Ontario Inc may assign its rights to any of its affiliates or subsidiaries, or to any successor in interest of any business associated with the Services.
