Terms & Conditions

The terms that govern your use of the Libryva app, website, and related services.

These Terms & Conditions (“Terms”) govern your access to and use of Libryva, including the mobile and desktop applications and the website at libryva.com (collectively, the “Service”). By using the Service, you agree to these Terms.

1. The Service

Libryva is a cross-platform ebook reader and audiobook player for organizing, reading, and listening to your personal library. The Service is provided to you, the individual user, for your personal, non-commercial use.

2. Your data

Libryva is designed to be local-first: your library, reading progress, audiobook playback locations, bookmarks, playlists, and settings are stored on your device unless you explicitly choose to back them up, sync them, or transfer them through a future cloud feature.

  • You own your data. We claim no intellectual property rights over the contents of your library, notes, or ratings.
  • You are responsible for backups. Until cloud backup or sync is offered, deleting the app or losing your device may result in data loss.
  • You are responsible for your media. You should only import, read, listen to, or process books, audiobooks, articles, and other content that you have the right to use.

3. Acceptable use

You agree not to:

  • Use the Service for any unlawful purpose;
  • Attempt to gain unauthorized access to the Service or related systems;
  • Redistribute, resell, or sublicense the Service without written permission;
  • Use any future sync, cloud, AI, article, or news features to store, transmit, or generate unlawful, infringing, abusive, or harmful content.

4. Intellectual property

The Libryva name, logo, interface design, and underlying source code are the proprietary property of the Libryva project and are protected by applicable intellectual property laws. The app’s source code is not openly licensed. The project’s public repository is provided solely for issue reports, feedback, and community interaction — it does not grant any license to the source code.

5. Third-party services

The Service may retrieve book, audiobook, cover, article, or news metadata from third-party sources. Your use of any third-party service is subject to that provider’s own terms. We are not responsible for third-party content or availability.

6. Disclaimer of warranties

The Service is provided “as is” and “as available,” without warranties of any kind, express or implied, including merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement. We do not warrant that the Service will be uninterrupted or error-free.

7. Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, the Libryva project shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or any loss of data, profits, or goodwill arising from your use of the Service.

8. Changes to the Service or Terms

We may modify the Service or these Terms at any time. Material changes will be announced on the website. Continued use of the Service after changes take effect constitutes acceptance of the revised Terms.

9. Termination

We may suspend or terminate your access to the Service at any time for conduct that violates these Terms or is harmful to other users or the project.
