Agreement
These Terms of Service govern your use of Vinyl Rider, a free app developed by the developer. By downloading, accessing, or using the app, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use the app and remove it from your device.
Applicable app-store terms and mandatory consumer law also continue to apply and control where they cannot be varied by these Terms.
What the app does
Vinyl Rider is a practice tool that lets you load supported audio onto two virtual decks and use playback, pitch, EQ, volume, mute, crossfader, cue, BPM, and audio-analysis features. Audio can come from your device or a Subsonic-compatible server. Eligible server tracks can be downloaded for offline use.
The app is intended for personal practice. It is not professional performance, broadcast, safety, archival, or backup software and should not be relied on where playback cannot fail. Keep independent copies of audio you cannot replace.
Free service
All functional features in Vinyl Rider are free and will remain free, without a subscription or required purchase. A future version may offer optional cosmetic purchases, such as turntable styles or slipmat skins. Cosmetic purchases will not unlock or change functional capabilities and will be disclosed before purchase under applicable store rules.
Your audio and lawful use
You keep ownership of audio and other content you select or access. You are responsible for having the rights and permissions needed to access, download, copy, play, mix, or otherwise use that content.
You must not use the app to infringe copyright or other rights, bypass access controls, redistribute downloaded material, provide unauthorized access to another person's library, or violate applicable law. The app does not grant rights to music, artwork, metadata, trademarks, or other third-party content.
Subsonic-compatible servers and third-party services
Vinyl Rider does not create or manage accounts on connected servers. You must have lawful access to each server and comply with its operator's terms, privacy policy, technical limits, and content rules. Keep your credentials confidential and update or disconnect the connection if you believe they have been exposed.
Server operators control their services' availability, content, eligibility rules, performance, logging, and continued operation. A server may change, reject credentials, limit access, implement only part of the protocol, or stop working with the app without notice. The developer cannot guarantee compatibility, connectivity, or continued availability of third-party content.
Acceptable use
You agree not to:
- use the app for unlawful, fraudulent, abusive, or infringing activity;
- use another person's credentials or content without authorization;
- defeat security, access controls, technical limits, or content protections;
- reverse engineer or modify the app except where applicable law expressly permits it;
- interfere with the app, connected servers, app stores, or related infrastructure; or
- use the app or its output in a way that violates third-party terms or rights.
Privacy and local storage
The Privacy Policy explains local storage, optional direct server requests, deletion controls, website hosting, and support communications. The app does not provide cloud backup or cross-device sync for its offline library. You are responsible for device security, available storage, and retaining original copies of your files.
Intellectual property
The developer and its licensors retain all rights in the app, website, design, code, branding, and documentation, excluding content owned by you or third parties. Subject to these Terms, the developer grants you a limited, personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to use the app on devices you own or control for its intended purpose.
Names and marks belonging to server operators and other third parties remain their owners' property. References to interoperability do not imply sponsorship or endorsement.
Availability, updates, and support
The app and support are provided on a reasonable-efforts basis. Updates may change functionality or device requirements. Some features require a compatible device, available storage, internet access, third-party services, or a supported audio format. Background downloads are not promised.
Support is available through the Support page. The developer does not guarantee a particular response or resolution time.
Disclaimer
To the fullest extent permitted by law, the app and website are provided "as is" and "as available," without warranties of uninterrupted operation, error-free output, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement, preservation of data, or compatibility with third-party services. Nothing in these Terms excludes warranties or consumer rights that cannot legally be excluded.
Limitation of liability
To the fullest extent permitted by law, the developer will not be liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive loss, or for loss of content, data, opportunity, revenue, or profits arising from the app, website, unavailable third-party services, or your use of content. This limitation does not apply where liability cannot legally be limited.
Ending use
You may stop using the app at any time by uninstalling it. The developer may suspend or discontinue the app, or restrict access to future versions, when reasonably necessary for security, legal compliance, misuse, or service operation. Sections that by their nature should survive will continue to apply.
Changes to these Terms
The developer may update these Terms to reflect changes to the app, third-party services, or legal requirements. Updated Terms will be posted here with a revised "Last updated" date. If a material change requires consent under applicable law, the developer will request it through an appropriate channel before it applies.
