Terms of Use — Clav

Version of 27.10.2026 · Alpine Lynx, Switzerland

What Clav is

Clav keeps locked documents on this iPhone. It does not give legal, tax or financial advice, and it does not replace the originals that the law requires you to keep.

Your part

Use Clav responsibly. There is no way to recover the documents: if you lose your key and the card, or the parts, no one can open them. Not Alpine Lynx, not Apple.

Keep the security card and a .clav copy away from this iPhone. Without both, a lost or erased iPhone means a lost vault: there is no way to get it back.

Share only with people you trust. What the other person receives stays with them.

Purchases

You buy Pro on the App Store, under Apple's terms (standard EULA). The subscription renews until you cancel it in your iPhone's Settings. Your documents are yours and stay encrypted on this iPhone, with or without Pro.

With the Annual plan, the first 14 days are free, with everything unlocked. If you cancel before they end, you pay nothing, but the vault closes until you activate Pro. Lifetime is paid once and does not renew.

There is no free version. Without Pro, the vault closes: your documents stay encrypted on this iPhone, but you cannot see, export or add them. You can still restore a purchase, lock the vault or erase it on this iPhone. The app warns you two days before the trial ends. When you activate Pro, the vault opens again as it was.

Liability

Clav is made with care, but it may contain errors. To the extent the law allows, Alpine Lynx is not liable for loss of data or documents.

Governing law

These terms are governed by Swiss law. Any dispute falls under the jurisdiction of the courts of Switzerland, without prejudice to any mandatory consumer-protection rights you may have where you live.
