Terms of Service
Last Updated: February 19, 2026
These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your use of the Bibliostats mobile application ("the App") developed by Casey Kirst ("we," "us," or "our"). By using the App, you agree to these Terms.
Use of the App
Bibliostats is a personal book tracking and reading statistics app. You may use the App to:
- Track books you are reading, have read, or did not finish
- Record reading progress and sessions
- View reading statistics and trends
- Import reading history from Goodreads or Storygraph
- Search for books using integrated book databases
Subscriptions and Purchases
Bibliostats Pro
The App offers a premium subscription ("Bibliostats Pro") that unlocks additional features including reading trends, reading pace stats, re-read tracking, and iCloud sync. Bibliostats Pro is available as:
- Monthly subscription — auto-renewing
- Yearly subscription — auto-renewing
- Lifetime purchase — one-time, non-consumable
Billing
All purchases are processed through Apple's App Store. Payment is charged to your Apple ID account at confirmation of purchase. By subscribing, you agree to the pricing and payment terms presented at the time of purchase.
Auto-Renewal
Subscriptions renew automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current billing period. Your account will be charged for renewal within 24 hours prior to the end of the current period at the rate of the selected plan.
Managing Subscriptions
You can manage or cancel your subscription at any time through your Apple ID account settings or through Settings > Manage Subscription in the App. Cancellation takes effect at the end of the current billing period.
Free Features
Core functionality — including book tracking, library management, basic statistics, and CSV import — is available for free with no time limit.
Your Content
All data you enter into the App (book information, reading activity, ratings) belongs to you. We do not claim any ownership over your content. Your data is stored locally on your device and, if you choose to enable iCloud Sync, in your personal iCloud account.
Third-Party Services
The App uses third-party services for book metadata lookup:
- Google Books — Terms of Service
- Open Library — Terms of Use
- Hardcover — Terms of Service
These services are used solely to retrieve book information (titles, authors, covers, page counts). Your use of the App is also subject to Apple's standard Licensed Application End User License Agreement.
CSV Import
The App can import reading data from Goodreads and Storygraph CSV export files. Imported files are processed entirely on your device and are not uploaded to any server. You are responsible for ensuring you have the right to use any data you import.
Disclaimer of Warranties
The App is provided "as is" and "as available" without warranties of any kind, either express or implied. We do not warrant that the App will be uninterrupted, error-free, or free of harmful components.
Book metadata retrieved from third-party services (including page counts, cover images, and synopses) may be inaccurate or incomplete. We are not responsible for the accuracy of third-party content.
Limitation of Liability
To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, we shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or any loss of data, use, or profits, arising out of or related to your use of the App.
Changes to These Terms
We may update these Terms from time to time. We will notify you of any changes by posting the new Terms on this page and updating the "Last Updated" date. Continued use of the App after changes constitutes acceptance of the revised Terms.
Termination
We reserve the right to terminate or suspend your access to the App at our sole discretion, without notice, for conduct that we believe violates these Terms or is harmful to other users, us, or third parties.
Governing Law
These Terms shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the United States, without regard to conflict of law provisions.
