HomePerty Terms of Service

Effective date: 24 September 2026

These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your use of HomePerty (the "App"), published by KingNerd (Gabriel) ("we", "us", "our"), an independent developer based in Bucharest, Romania. By downloading, installing or using the App, you agree to these Terms and to our HomePerty Privacy Policy, which is incorporated by reference.

These Terms supplement and, where they differ, take precedence over the company-wide KingNerd Terms of Service and Disclaimers for anything relating to HomePerty.

These Terms cover the service. Your right to install and use the software itself is granted by the HomePerty End User Licence Agreement.

1. The service

HomePerty is a property-management app for landlords and short-term-rental hosts. It works in these ways:

Local mode, the default, available to everyone including free-tier users: all data you enter is stored on your device only. No account is required.
Cloud Backup, included with Pro: once you connect a Google or Apple account, the App automatically keeps backups of your data on Google Firebase, up to the last five versions, so you can restore on any device.
Cloud Sync, a Pro feature you switch on yourself: your records, photos and documents are kept in step across the devices signed in to your account, and with the people you invite to your workspace.

Cloud data is encrypted in transit and at rest by Google and is reachable only by your account and the people you have invited. It is not end-to-end encrypted. The Privacy Policy explains who can access it and when.

2. Eligibility

You must be at least 18 years old and legally able to enter into these Terms to use HomePerty. The App is a tool for adults managing real property and finances. It is not directed at children.

3. Accounts

Using core app functionality never requires an account.
If you choose to sign in, you can do so with Google or with Apple. There is no HomePerty password. You are responsible for keeping the account you signed in with secure, and for activity under it.
Both providers can be linked to the same HomePerty account, and either one then opens the same data.
You must provide accurate information when creating or connecting an account, and keep it up to date.
We may suspend or terminate an account that we reasonably believe is being used fraudulently, to abuse the licensing system, or in breach of these Terms.

3a. Support-assisted recovery

Cloud backups need no separate password. If you need help recovering data, support can assist after verifying that you control the account the backups belong to. We follow the access limits set out in the Privacy Policy: backup contents are opened only for support you have asked for, for abuse prevention, or for legal compliance.

4. Free tier, Pro and licence keys

The Free tier includes every feature of the App for a single property, at no cost, with no account required.
Pro removes the property limit and unlocks Cloud Backup, Cloud Sync across your own devices, the shared workspace and spreadsheet export. It can be unlocked either by:
- A paid recurring subscription, bought through the App Store on iPhone or Google Play on Android. This is the only way to buy Pro; and
- Redeeming a complimentary licence key, a one-time code we issue to support cases, press and app reviewers, which is checked against our licensing server and, once redeemed, is tied to that activation. Keys are not sold, are non-transferable, and may be revoked if we reasonably believe they were obtained fraudulently, shared publicly, or resold without authorisation.

5. Subscriptions, Cloud Backup and Cloud Sync

Billing. Paid Pro subscriptions are billed and managed by the store you bought them from: Apple, through your Apple Account, for the iPhone app, and Google Play for the Android app. Price, billing period, any free trial terms and renewal terms are shown to you by that store at the moment of purchase and are governed by that store's own terms in addition to these Terms. We are not the merchant of record and we never receive your payment details.
Auto-renewal. Subscriptions renew automatically at the end of each billing period unless you cancel beforehand. On iPhone, cancel in Settings, your name, Subscriptions. On Android, cancel in the Google Play Store's subscription screen.
Cancellation. Cancelling stops future renewals. You normally keep Pro access to the end of the period you have already paid for. Cancellation is not immediate removal of access unless the law or the store's own refund processing requires it.
Refunds. Refunds are handled by the store that took the payment, under Apple's or Google Play's refund policy, and are requested from them. We do not process payments or refunds directly, because we never hold the money.
Cloud Backup and Cloud Sync need Pro. Automatic backup runs, and Cloud Sync can be switched on, while you hold Pro, through an active subscription or a valid licence key, and have an account connected. If Pro lapses, the App stops making new cloud backups and stops synchronising. Your existing cloud data is kept for twelve months in case you come back, and is then deleted permanently. Your local, on-device data is never affected by Pro status.
Cloud Backup keeps up to five backup versions per account, replacing the oldest automatically, within a 5 GB allowance. It is for backup, restore and moving to a new device. Restoring a backup replaces the data on that device with the backup's contents, and older states stay available in version history until they are replaced.
Cloud Sync is separate from Cloud Backup and is off until you switch it on. With it on, changes made on one device, or by a person in your workspace, reach the others through the cloud, and deleting something removes it everywhere. When the same record is changed in two places before they catch up, the most recent change is kept. Cloud Sync does not replace backups.
Connecting an account is your choice. Users who prefer to keep data local-only simply never sign in, and the App stays fully functional.
Service dependency. Cloud Backup and Cloud Sync run on Google Firebase infrastructure. We do not guarantee uninterrupted availability of Firebase services, and outages, changes or discontinuation of Firebase products by Google are outside our control. We recommend also keeping backup files of your own, which the App can make, whether or not you use the cloud.
Backup files you make are your responsibility. A HomePerty backup file (`.hpbk`) is not encrypted: anyone who has a copy can open it and read the records, photos and documents inside. Keep backup files somewhere private and share them only with people you trust. The App checks a file for damage and tampering before it restores it, and refuses one it cannot trust, but it cannot protect a file once it has left your device.

6. Acceptable use

You agree not to:

use the App for any unlawful purpose, or to store or process data you do not have the right to store;
attempt to circumvent, reverse-engineer or tamper with the licensing, entitlement, Cloud Backup or Cloud Sync access-control systems, except so far as such a restriction is not permitted by applicable law;
interfere with or disrupt the App's licensing or cloud infrastructure, or try to reach another user's cloud-stored data; or
redistribute, resell or sublicense the App's source code or compiled binaries beyond what our licence terms permit.

7. Your content

You keep ownership of all data you enter into HomePerty: property records, tenant information, financial data, documents, photos and everything else. We claim no ownership over it. For Cloud Backup and Cloud Sync users we store your backup archives and synchronised records solely to provide the services described in the Privacy Policy. Access is restricted by security rules to your account and the people you have invited, and we open your cloud data only for support you have asked for, for abuse prevention, or for legal compliance. We do not use your content to train models, for advertising, or for any other purpose.

You are responsible for the legality and accuracy of what you store in the App, including compliance with any tenant-data or financial-record laws that apply where you are.

8. Sharing a workspace

Pro users can invite up to two other people into their own workspace, each by a specific email address, as an editor or as a viewer. Sharing is always explicit: nobody sees your records because they happen to use HomePerty. The person who owns the workspace decides what each guest may do and can withdraw an invitation at any time. Joining somebody's workspace never gives them access to your own properties or personal data.

9. Intellectual property

HomePerty's software, design and branding are proprietary to KingNerd. Third-party open-source packages bundled with the App remain under their own licences, which you can read in the App under Settings, About, Open-source licences.

10. Disclaimers

The App is provided "as is" and "as available" without warranties of any kind, express or implied, including implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose or non-infringement, except where such disclaimers are not permitted by applicable law.
The App's calculators, reports and tax and depreciation tools are estimates for information only. They are not financial, legal, accounting or tax advice. Consult a qualified professional before making financial, legal or tax decisions.
We do not guarantee that the App, Cloud Backup or any third-party service it depends on (Google Firebase, Google Maps, the App Store, Google Play) will be error-free, uninterrupted or always available. Cloud Backup and Cloud Sync are convenience features and you remain responsible for keeping your own copies of important records.

See also the general Disclaimers, which apply alongside this section.

11. Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, KingNerd (Gabriel) will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential or punitive damages, or any loss of data, revenue or profits, arising from your use of, or inability to use, the App, whether based on warranty, contract, tort or any other legal theory, even if advised of the possibility of such damages. To the fullest extent permitted by law, our total aggregate liability arising out of or relating to the App will not exceed the amount you paid, if any, for HomePerty, such as a licence key or subscription payments, in the 12 months before the claim arose. Nothing in these Terms limits liability that cannot be limited under applicable law, and any mandatory consumer rights that apply to you are not affected or restricted by these Terms.

12. Termination

By you: uninstall the App at any time; cancel any subscription through the store you bought it from; delete your cloud data and account in Settings, Account & License, Danger zone, Delete account.
By us: we may suspend or end your access, including a Pro licence or Cloud Backup and Cloud Sync access, if you breach these Terms, misuse the licensing system, or if the law requires it. Where it is reasonably possible we will give notice first.
Termination does not entitle you to a refund of amounts already paid, except as required by the store's refund policy or by applicable law.

13. Changes to these Terms

We may update these Terms from time to time. Material changes will be reflected in the effective date above and, where appropriate, announced in the App's About screen. Continuing to use the App after changes take effect means you accept the revised Terms.

14. Governing law and disputes

These Terms are governed by the laws of Romania, except where mandatory consumer-protection law in your country of residence provides otherwise, consistent with the company-wide KingNerd Terms of Service. Any dispute not settled informally may be brought before the competent courts, without prejudice to any right you have to bring a claim in the courts of your own country of residence under mandatory consumer-protection rules, for example as a consumer in the EU or the UK.

15. Terms that apply to the iPhone app

This section applies only to a copy of HomePerty obtained from Apple's App Store, and it prevails over anything above that conflicts with it. The same terms appear in section 14 of the HomePerty EULA, which is the licence agreement for the software itself; the two say the same thing and neither replaces the other.

These Terms are between you and us, not Apple. Apple is not a party to them and is not responsible for the App or its contents.
Licence. Your licence to use the App is a non-transferable licence to run it on any Apple-branded device that you own or control, as permitted by the Usage Rules in Apple's Media Services Terms and Conditions.
Support. We are solely responsible for any maintenance and support. Apple has no obligation to provide any support for the App. Reach us at hello@homeperty.com.
Warranty. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, Apple gives no warranty for the App. If the App fails to conform to any warranty that does apply, you may notify Apple and Apple will refund the purchase price, if any. Apple has no other warranty obligation of any kind, and any other claims, losses, liabilities, damages, costs or expenses arising from a failure to conform to a warranty are our responsibility.
Claims. We, and not Apple, are responsible for addressing any claim you or a third party makes about the App or your use of it, including product liability claims, any claim that the App fails to meet a legal or regulatory requirement, and claims arising under consumer protection, privacy or similar law.
Intellectual property. If a third party claims the App infringes their intellectual property rights, we, and not Apple, are solely responsible for investigating, defending, settling and discharging that claim.
Legal compliance. You represent that you are not located in a country subject to a U.S. Government embargo or designated as a "terrorist supporting" country, and that you are not listed on any U.S. Government list of prohibited or restricted parties.
Third-party terms. You must comply with any applicable third-party terms when using the App.
Third-party beneficiary. Apple and Apple's subsidiaries are third-party beneficiaries of these Terms, and on your acceptance of them Apple has the right, and is deemed to have accepted the right, to enforce them against you.
