Welcome to Pickle, Inc. ("Pickle," "we," "us," or "our").

These Terms of Use ("Terms") govern your access to and use of Pickle's products, software, hardware devices, services, websites, and applications (collectively, the "Services").

Pickle provides a connected ecosystem of tools that allow you to capture, store, and interact with your personal memories through both software and hardware products.

Our ecosystem includes:

• The Pickle platform — your personal memory bank, accessible through web or app.
• Pickle software — tools for uploading, editing, deleting, and visualizing your data and memories.
• Pickle-certified hardware — including Pickle I AR glasses and future certified devices capable of securely capturing photos, videos, audio, and contextual data.

Your use of any Pickle product or service is governed by these Terms as well as our Privacy Policy.

You must be at least 18 years old and capable of forming a binding contract to use Pickle.

If you use Pickle on behalf of an organization, you represent that you are authorized to accept these Terms on its behalf.

You agree to:

• Provide accurate and complete information;

The Services are provided "as is" and "as available," without warranties of any kind. Pickle does not guarantee uninterrupted operation or error-free performance.

We disclaim all implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, or non-infringement. Pickle is not responsible for any data loss or device damage resulting from user misuse or third-party interference.

To the fullest extent permitted by law:

• Pickle will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, consequential, or punitive damages.
• Our total liability for any claim relating to your use of the Services will not exceed the amount you paid (if any) for the Service during the preceding 12 months.

Some jurisdictions may not allow certain limitations, so parts of this section may not apply to you.

You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Pickle and its affiliates, employees, and partners from any claims or damages arising from your:

• Violation of these Terms;
• Misuse of the Services;
• Infringement of any third-party rights.

These Terms are governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of California, without regard to conflict-of-law principles. You agree to resolve any disputes in courts located in San Francisco County, California, unless otherwise required by applicable law.

We may update these Terms periodically. If material changes occur, we will notify you via email or in-app message. Continued use of our Services after such updates constitutes your acceptance of the revised Terms.
