Terms of use
Last updated:
1. Scope
These terms govern your use of the Pause app for iPhone, published by Tessel, SIREN 830 081 410 (“we”). By using the app, you accept them.
2. License
We grant you a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable license to use the app on the Apple devices linked to your Apple Account, for non-commercial purposes. Apple's standard Licensed Application End User License Agreement applies. These terms add to it; if they conflict, Apple's agreement prevails.
You may not copy, resell, modify or disassemble the app, except where the law allows it.
3. Free trial
- The trial lasts 7 days, with every feature and no limit on the number of fasts.
- It starts with your first fast, through a free in-app purchase ($0) tied to your Apple Account, which Apple asks you to confirm. One trial per Apple Account.
- Deleting and reinstalling the app doesn't reset the trial.
- Nothing is charged when the trial ends, and it never turns into a purchase.
4. After the trial
Without a purchase, you can no longer start a new fast or add a past one. Everything else stays free: ending the current fast, viewing, editing and exporting your history, tracking water and weight, and erasing your data.
5. Lifetime Access
- Lifetime Access is a one-time purchase, with no subscription and no renewal. Its price, taxes included, is shown on the App Store before you buy (€7.99 in France and $7.99 in the US at launch).
- It lets you start fasts without limit, on all your devices linked to the same Apple Account. You can restore it for free from the app.
- “Lifetime” means for as long as the app is offered and stays compatible with your device, with no extra payment. Published updates are included. We can't guarantee the app will stay compatible with every future version of iOS.
6. Payment, withdrawal and refunds
Purchases are made from Apple, which takes the payment and issues the invoice. To exercise your right of withdrawal or request a refund, contact Apple at reportaproblem.apple.com, under its terms.
7. No medical advice
Pause is a tracking tool: a timer and a log. It is not a medical device. The app gives no medical advice, makes no diagnosis and promises no weight loss.
Ask a doctor before fasting if you are pregnant or breastfeeding, diabetic, on medication, under 18, or have had an eating disorder, and for any fast longer than 24 hours. Stop fasting if you feel unwell.
8. Your data
Your data stays on your iPhone and, if your iPhone is signed in to iCloud, in your iCloud. See the privacy policy. iCloud sync depends on Apple's service; you can export your data at any time. Erase All My Data is permanent.
9. Warranty and liability
If you are a consumer in the EU, you benefit from the legal guarantee of conformity for digital content. If the app doesn't work as described, write to us: we will fix it within a reasonable time.
Beyond that guarantee, the app is provided as is. To the extent permitted by law, we are not liable for the consequences of your fasting or eating decisions, or for indirect damages. Nothing in these terms limits the rights the law grants you as a consumer.
10. Governing law and disputes
These terms are governed by French law. If you are a consumer, you keep the protection of the mandatory rules of your country of residence. If there is a problem, write to us first at pause.support@tesselapps.com: we will look for an amicable solution. Otherwise, the dispute will go to the competent courts.
11. Changes
We may update these terms, for example when the app changes. The current version is posted on this page with its date. A change never affects a Lifetime Access you already bought.
