Ember1. Provider
Ember is provided by Geordan Gesink, Haesselackerstraße 3, 69198 Schriesheim, Germany. Contact: support@bonkalarm.app.
2. Scope
These Terms apply to all use of Ember, including the mobile app and this website.
3. Service Description
Ember is a wake-up alarm app that keeps ringing until you complete a wake-up check, such as a code scan, puzzle, math task, or short walk. It also tracks streaks and scores.
- Availability may change and features are provided on a best-effort basis.
- Certain features depend on third-party infrastructure and platforms, for example device operating systems and app stores.
4. Not a Safety-Critical or Medical Device
Ember is a consumer productivity tool, not a medical device and not a guaranteed or safety-critical alarm. Alarm delivery depends on your device, operating system, battery, permissions, focus/do-not-disturb settings, and platform limitations.
- Do not rely on Ember as the sole means of waking for safety-critical purposes.
- Keep required permissions enabled and, where relevant, exclude the app from battery-optimization restrictions so alarms can fire reliably.
5. User Responsibilities
- Use the service lawfully and in line with these Terms.
- Keep any emergency-override passkey you configure secure and used only as intended.
- Do not misuse, disrupt, or attempt to circumvent the service.
6. Intellectual Property
Ember software, branding, and related materials are protected by applicable intellectual property law unless otherwise stated.
7. Service Availability and Changes
We may modify, suspend, or discontinue features for technical, security, or legal reasons. We may also update these Terms when required.
8. Disclaimer of Warranties
The service is provided “as is” and “as available.” To the maximum extent permitted by law, no warranties are made regarding uninterrupted availability, fitness for a specific purpose, or complete error-free operation, including that any specific alarm will ring.
9. Limitation of Liability
We are liable without limitation for intent and gross negligence. For slight negligence, liability is limited to breaches of essential contractual obligations and to foreseeable, typical damages. Mandatory statutory liability remains unaffected.
10. Termination
You may stop using the service at any time by removing the app. We may restrict or terminate access where necessary for legal, security, or abuse-prevention reasons.
11. Governing Law and Jurisdiction
German law applies, excluding the UN Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods (CISG), to the extent legally permissible. If legally allowed, the place of jurisdiction is Schriesheim, Germany.
12. Severability
If any provision of these Terms is invalid, the remaining provisions remain unaffected.
