These Terms apply to ResearchNote AI Personal for Android (the “App”). English is the primary version, and a Traditional Chinese version is provided for convenience. If the versions differ, the English version controls to the extent permitted by law.
These Terms are an agreement between you and Yung-Hsin Shieh, the individual developer operating the BridgeAIWorks brand (“BridgeAIWorks,” “we,” “us,” or “our”). By downloading, purchasing, or using the App, you agree to these Terms, the Privacy Policy, the purchase information shown by Google Play, and applicable Google Play terms. If you do not agree, do not use the App.
If you use the App for an employer, school, laboratory, institution, or another person, you must have permission and follow their rules.
The App is a personal tool for organizing research projects, experiments, literature, notes, documents, datasets, recordings, reminders, and optional AI-assisted work. It is not an institutional record system, guaranteed backup service, emergency service, or laboratory instrument controller.
The App does not provide medical, clinical, legal, financial, safety-critical, or other professional advice. Seek qualified human review whenever a decision could affect health, safety, legal rights, finances, regulated work, or research participants.
Search results, OCR, document extraction, transcription, calculations, reminders, citations, summaries, and AI output may be incomplete, outdated, or incorrect. AI output may contain fabricated facts or references.
You are responsible for checking original sources, methods, calculations, citations, permissions, outputs, and deadlines before relying on, publishing, submitting, or acting on them. You remain responsible for research integrity, participant protection, professional judgment, and compliance with applicable laws, contracts, licenses, institutional policies, and ethics approvals.
Subject to these Terms and Google Play rules, we grant you a limited, personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable, and revocable right to install and use the App on compatible Android devices you own, control, or are authorized to manage.
You may not copy or redistribute the App, sell or sublicense access, bypass security or payment controls, interfere with normal operation, introduce harmful code, infringe another person’s rights, violate the law, process content without permission, or present App or AI output as verified professional, regulatory, or institutional approval.
You retain any rights you lawfully hold in content you create or import. BridgeAIWorks does not gain ownership of your local workspace merely because you use the App.
You are responsible for having the rights, permissions, notices, consents, and lawful basis needed to record, store, copy, transcribe, analyze, export, publish, or send content. Do not use personal, health, participant, student, confidential, unpublished, licensed, trade-secret, or proprietary information unless you are authorized and have completed any required security, consent, or ethics process.
The App has no ResearchNote AI account or BridgeAIWorks cloud sync. Your workspace is stored on your device, and BridgeAIWorks cannot view or remotely recover it.
Clearing App storage, uninstalling the App, losing or damaging the device, file corruption, or software failure may cause permanent data loss. Some items placed in Recently Deleted must remain there for at least 30 days before permanent deletion becomes available.
Workspace export does not include original attachment content and is not a complete backup of every media item or annotation. Keep original files and other backups. You are responsible for protecting and deleting copies stored outside the App.
AI assistance is optional. You choose the AI service and model. Content remains on your device when you use a service that runs locally. If you use an online service, the App shows the research text to be sent and asks for your confirmation. You must have permission to send that content and must review the service’s terms and privacy policy.
AI services may charge separate fees and may control availability, security, data retention, model training options, and deletion. BridgeAIWorks does not control an external AI provider or guarantee its output. CoResearch AI output is an unverified draft until reviewed by a qualified person.
Crossref, Google ML Kit, Google Play, Android services, browsers, sharing destinations, linked websites, and other apps operate under their own terms and privacy practices. Their services may change or become unavailable.
The App may offer a Free plan and automatically renewing monthly or yearly Pro subscriptions through Google Play. The product, features, price, currency, taxes, billing period, renewal terms, and any eligible trial or promotion are those shown in the App and Google Play before you confirm the purchase.
Subscriptions renew until canceled. Manage or cancel a subscription through Google Play before the renewal deadline shown there. Uninstalling the App, clearing App data, stopping use, or removing an AI key does not cancel a subscription.
After cancellation, access normally continues until the end of the paid period, subject to Google Play rules and applicable law. Because the App has no shared BridgeAIWorks account, Google Play purchases do not transfer to Apple platforms, and Apple purchases do not transfer to Android.
Google Play processes payments and controls payment methods, receipts, prices, taxes, renewals, subscription management, and the primary refund process. BridgeAIWorks does not receive your complete payment-card details.
Cancellation does not automatically refund the current billing period. Refund eligibility is governed by Google Play’s refund policy and applicable consumer law. See Google Play subscription management for cancellation instructions.
We may update, change, or discontinue features to improve the App, correct problems, address security or compatibility, or meet legal and platform requirements. We do not promise that every feature, provider, format, or version will remain available indefinitely.
You may stop using the App at any time, but stopping use does not cancel a subscription. We may suspend or terminate your right to use the App if you seriously violate these Terms, misuse the App, bypass security or payment controls, or if continued operation becomes unlawful or unsafe.
To the extent permitted by law, the App and its output are provided “as is” and “as available.” We do not guarantee uninterrupted operation, permanent preservation of local data, compatibility with every device or service, or complete accuracy of research content, reminders, citations, calculations, or AI output.
To the maximum extent permitted by law, the operator is not responsible for indirect, incidental, special, or consequential loss arising from use of or inability to use the App. Nothing in these Terms limits rights or remedies that applicable law does not allow to be excluded.
Applicable law, mandatory consumer protections, and any court or dispute procedure with authority over a dispute continue to apply. If part of these Terms is unenforceable, the remaining provisions remain effective.
We may update these Terms when the App, Google Play requirements, third-party services, or applicable law changes. We will update the effective date and provide additional notice where reasonably required.
