Terms of Service
Last updated: 1 October 2026 · Effective: 1 October 2026
These terms are an agreement between you and Usman Mahmood, an individual developer in Lahore, Pakistan, who publishes SafeKeep as BinaryCraftsmen ("SafeKeep", "we", "us"), for the SafeKeep app and the services behind it (together, "SafeKeep"). By creating an account or using SafeKeep you accept them. If you don't, please don't use SafeKeep.
1. What SafeKeep is
SafeKeep keeps your personal documents (receipts, warranties, bills, certificates, IDs and similar papers) organised, searchable and encrypted on your phone. It reads the text of your documents on your phone, suggests labels and dates, and can remind you of deadlines you choose. Cloud AI auto-fill is optional and works only when you turn it on. The Free plan can show ads (section 5).
2. Your account
- You must be at least 13 to use SafeKeep (16 in the European Economic Area). If you're under 18, or under the age of majority where you live, you may use it only with the permission of a parent or guardian, who also accepts these terms for you.
- Give accurate sign-in details and keep your password and your phone's lock safe. You're responsible for what happens in your account.
- An account is for one person. Don't share it or create accounts for others without their permission.
3. Your documents
- They're yours. You keep all rights to what you store in SafeKeep.
- We don't look at them. Your documents stay on your phone. We can't open them, and we don't use them to train AI.
- Ads never see them. Ads on the Free plan get no document, text or name from SafeKeep.
- When you turn on a feature that sends something off your phone (cloud AI auto-fill), you allow us and our providers to process it only to provide that feature, as described in the Privacy Policy.
- Store only documents you have the right to keep. You're responsible for complying with the law where you live, for example when you store someone else's documents.
4. Privacy
How we handle your data is explained in the Privacy Policy, which is part of these terms.
5. Plans and ads
- Free is the plan everyone has. It includes a number of saved documents and premium (AI) documents, and can show ads. Your plan in the app shows what it includes and how much you've used.
- Plus, a paid plan without ads, isn't on sale yet. Nothing can be bought in SafeKeep today. Before Plus goes on sale, we'll update these terms with its price, renewal and cancellation, and tell you in the app.
- Plan limits and allowances are set by our servers and shown in the app. We may change them; we'll tell you in the app before a change reduces what your plan includes.
- Documents you have already saved are never locked. A plan's limit can stop you adding new documents, but you can always open, search and delete the ones you have.
- Ads on the Free plan come from Google AdMob and are non-personalised. They appear on Home, in your document list and sometimes after you save, never over a document. We may turn ads off for everyone at any time. What happens after you tap an ad, such as a purchase on an advertiser's website, is between you and that advertiser.
6. Your data is on your phone: keep it safe
- Your documents exist only on your phone: SafeKeep doesn't back them up yet. If the phone is lost, broken or reset, or you uninstall SafeKeep or clear its data, your documents are gone and we can't recover them.
- A document you delete stays in Recently deleted on your phone for 30 days, then it's erased for good. Erasing it there, or emptying Recently deleted, can't be undone.
- App lock uses your phone's own screen lock. If you remove that screen lock, App lock can't protect SafeKeep.
- SafeKeep is a convenient, private copy of your papers, not a replacement for originals. Keep the originals of documents that matter legally or financially.
7. Reading, AI suggestions and reminders
- Text reading, labels, categories, dates and amounts are found automatically, on your phone or by cloud AI. They can be wrong or incomplete. Check anything important, especially dates and amounts.
- SafeKeep suggests; you decide. It never sets a reminder or takes any other action for you without asking, unless you told it not to ask for that kind of action.
- Reminders are delivered by your phone's operating system. They can be late or missed, for example when notifications or "Alarms & reminders" are turned off, battery saving stops them, or the phone is off. Don't rely on SafeKeep alone for deadlines where a miss would be costly.
8. Fair use
Don't:
- break the law with SafeKeep, or store content that is illegal to possess;
- copy, modify, decompile or reverse engineer the app, except as the law allows;
- get around plan limits, tamper with the app, its entitlement checks or integrity checks, or use a modified version;
- access our servers other than through the app, use automated means against them, or send requests to our AI features for anything other than your own documents;
- interfere with SafeKeep's security or with other people's use of it.
We may suspend features for an account that does, as described in section 11.
9. Services from others
SafeKeep relies on Google (Firebase, Gemini, Play, AdMob) and Apple (App Store), whose own terms also apply to your use of their services. We're not responsible for their services, but we choose providers that protect your data as described in the Privacy Policy.
10. Our app
- SafeKeep, its design and its code belong to us or our licensors. We give you a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable licence to use the app on devices you own or control, under these terms and the store's terms.
- SafeKeep includes open-source software, listed in the app under About → Open-source licences. Their own licences apply to those parts.
- If you send us feedback or ideas, we may use them without owing you anything.
11. Ending the agreement
- You can stop using SafeKeep at any time and delete your account in the app (Settings → Delete account). This deletes your data on our servers and everything SafeKeep stored on your phone.
- We may suspend or close an account that seriously or repeatedly breaks these terms, or when the law requires it. Unless the law or security prevents it, we'll tell you first and give you a chance to fix the problem. Documents on your phone stay on your phone.
- If we ever stop offering SafeKeep, we'll give you at least 60 days' notice, and the app will keep working offline for documents already on your phone as far as possible.
12. Disclaimers
SafeKeep is provided "as is" and "as available". As far as the law allows, we don't promise that it will be uninterrupted or error-free, that text reading or AI suggestions will be accurate, or that reminders will always arrive on time. SafeKeep doesn't give legal, financial or tax advice, and it isn't an official identity wallet or a certified document archive.
Nothing in these terms limits rights you have as a consumer that can't be limited by contract.
13. Liability
As far as the law allows:
- we're not liable for indirect or consequential losses, such as lost profits, lost opportunities, or penalties for missed deadlines;
- we're not liable for documents lost because they existed only on a phone that was lost, damaged, reset or cleared;
- our total liability to you is limited to the greater of the amount you paid us in the 12 months before the claim and USD 50.
None of this excludes or limits our liability for death or personal injury caused by our negligence, for fraud, for gross negligence or wilful misconduct, or for anything else the law doesn't allow us to exclude or limit. If you're a consumer in the EEA or the UK, this section doesn't affect your statutory rights, for example when SafeKeep doesn't work as described.
14. Changes
We may update SafeKeep and these terms. We'll tell you in the app before a change that affects you takes effect; if you keep using SafeKeep after that, the new terms apply. If you don't agree, you can delete your account.
15. App Store
If you got SafeKeep from Apple's App Store: these terms are between you and us, not Apple. Apple has no obligation to support or maintain the app and isn't responsible for claims about it (including product liability, legal compliance or intellectual property claims); if the app fails its warranty, you may ask Apple to refund the purchase price, and Apple has no other warranty obligation. Apple and its subsidiaries are third-party beneficiaries of these terms and may enforce them. You confirm you're not in a country under a U.S. Government embargo or on a U.S. Government list of prohibited or restricted parties.
16. Law and disputes
These terms are governed by the laws of Pakistan, without regard to conflict-of-law rules. Disputes go to the courts of Lahore, Pakistan. If you use SafeKeep as a consumer, this doesn't take away the protection of the consumer laws where you live, or any right those laws give you to bring a claim in your local courts. Before going to court, please write to us at binarycraftsmen@gmail.com so we can try to solve the problem.
