2. Description of Service

IMPORTANT: LizMusic is a music player client application only. We do NOT provide, host, store, or distribute any music content, audio files, or media. The App allows you to:

• Play audio files that YOU provide from your own device storage or cloud accounts
• Organize YOUR music library with playlists and metadata management
• Connect to YOUR own supported cloud storage sources such as Google Drive, Dropbox, OneDrive, and WebDAV-compatible servers that YOU set up and maintain
• Customize audio playback with equalizer settings and audio effects
• Access YOUR music offline without internet connection
• Control playback via bluetooth devices and car audio systems
• Use gesture controls like shake-to-skip for hands-free operation
• Display and organize local lyrics files that you provide, such as .lrc files stored with your music library
• Access optional premium features through in-app subscriptions

You are solely responsible for providing your own music files, lyrics files, and cloud storage connections. LizMusic does not provide any content, streaming services, or music sources.

3. License and Ownership

3.1 App License: Subject to your compliance with these Terms, we grant you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to use LizMusic for personal, non-commercial purposes.

3.2 Your Content: You retain all ownership rights to your music files, lyrics files, and data. LizMusic does not claim any ownership over your content.

3.3 Intellectual Property: The App, including its design, features, and code, is owned by LizMusic (Individual Developer) and protected by copyright and other intellectual property laws.

4. User Responsibilities

You agree to:

• Legal Content: Only use music files, lyrics files, and related metadata that you own or have the legal right to access and use

• Security: Keep your cloud storage credentials secure and confidential

5. Content and Copyright Disclaimer

5.1 No Content Provided: LizMusic does NOT provide, host, store, stream, or distribute any music, audio files, lyrics, or media content. We are a playback client/tool only. You must provide all content yourself.

5.2 User Content Responsibility: You are solely and entirely responsible for:

• Obtaining, licensing, or owning all music files, lyrics files, and related content you use through the App
• Ensuring you have legal rights to access, display, and play all audio and lyric content
• Complying with all applicable copyright laws and licensing requirements
• Setting up and paying for your own cloud storage services
• Configuring your own Google Drive, Dropbox, OneDrive, WebDAV server, or other supported cloud storage connections
• Any copyright infringement or unauthorized use of content

5.3 No Liability for User Content: The LizMusic developer has NO control over, does NOT review, and is NOT responsible for any music or content you access through the App. We cannot and do not verify whether you have rights to any content.

5.4 Lyrics and Metadata: Any lyrics files, lyric text, or related metadata that you import, store, display, or use with the App are your responsibility. Public releases of LizMusic do not promise general online lyrics search or download capability. If a limited-release lyrics lookup feature is enabled for certain approved installations, it remains optional, may depend on third-party sources, and does not transfer responsibility for copyright compliance to LizMusic.

5.5 Copyright Infringement: If you use the App to play or display unauthorized copyrighted content, YOU (not the LizMusic developer) are solely responsible for any legal consequences, damages, or liability.

5.6 Indemnification: You agree to indemnify and hold the LizMusic developer harmless from any claims, damages, or expenses arising from your use of copyrighted content through the App.

6. Prohibited Activities

You may not:

• Reverse engineer, decompile, or disassemble the App

• Remove or alter any copyright, trademark, or proprietary notices
• Use the App to infringe on intellectual property rights
• Use the App for any illegal or unauthorized purpose
• Play, store, display, or distribute content for which you do not have proper rights or licenses
• Use the App to provide music streaming services to others
• Attempt to gain unauthorized access to any portion of the App or its systems
• Distribute malware or viruses through the App

7. Cloud Storage Integration

7.1 User-Provided Accounts: Cloud storage integration requires you to have your own accounts with supported third-party providers (such as Google Drive, Dropbox, OneDrive, and WebDAV-compatible servers). LizMusic does not provide or include any cloud storage services or accounts.

7.2 Authorization and Access Scope: When you authorize a provider such as Google Drive, Dropbox, or OneDrive, or configure a WebDAV-compatible server, you permit LizMusic to access the folders, files, metadata, and music-related content needed for browsing, import, playback, artwork, lyrics, and optional offline cache features. If you revoke access, change credentials, remove files, or the provider changes its API or service availability, related LizMusic features may stop working.

7.3 Provider Availability and API Changes: Cloud playback depends on the continued availability, authorization rules, rate limits, file-link behavior, and API compatibility of the provider you connect. Google Drive, Dropbox, OneDrive, and WebDAV-compatible servers may change their services, permissions, account requirements, or API behavior. Those changes may affect browsing, import, playback, lyrics, artwork, or offline cache features for that source.

7.4 Third-Party Services: When you use cloud storage features, you are subject to the terms and policies of those third-party providers. You are responsible for complying with their terms of service.

7.5 Your Responsibility: You are responsible for:

• Signing up for and paying for your own cloud storage subscriptions
• Configuring and maintaining your cloud storage connections
• Maintaining the security of your cloud storage accounts and credentials
• Ensuring you have sufficient storage space and bandwidth

7.6 No Liability: We are not responsible for any data loss, corruption, unauthorized access, service outages, API changes, authorization changes, account limitations, rate limits, or billing issues related to third-party cloud storage services.

8. Subscriptions and In-App Purchases

8.6 Cancellation: You may cancel your subscription at any time. Upon cancellation, you will retain access to premium features until the end of your current billing period.

9. App Updates and Modifications

9.1 Automatic Updates: The App may automatically check for updates and download them to improve performance, security, and functionality.

9.2 Mandatory Updates: Some updates may be required for security or compatibility reasons. If you do not install mandatory updates, some or all features of the App may become unavailable.

10. Disclaimer of Warranties

THE APP IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE" WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED. WE DO NOT WARRANT THAT THE APP WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, ERROR-FREE, OR FREE OF VIRUSES OR OTHER HARMFUL COMPONENTS. YOUR USE OF THE APP IS AT YOUR OWN RISK.

11. Limitation of Liability

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, THE LIZMUSIC DEVELOPER SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR ANY LOSS OF PROFITS OR REVENUES, WHETHER INCURRED DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY, OR ANY LOSS OF DATA, USE, GOODWILL, OR OTHER INTANGIBLE LOSSES RESULTING FROM YOUR USE OF THE APP. WE ARE NOT LIABLE FOR ANY COPYRIGHT INFRINGEMENT OR UNAUTHORIZED USE OF CONTENT BY YOU.

12. Terms Modifications

We reserve the right to modify these Terms at any time. We will notify you of any material changes by posting the updated Terms within the App or on our website. Continued use of the App after changes constitutes acceptance of the modified Terms.

13. Termination

13.1 By You: You may stop using the App at any time by uninstalling it from your devices and canceling any active subscriptions through Google Play.

13.2 By Us: We reserve the right to terminate or suspend your access to the App if you violate these Terms or engage in prohibited activities. Termination does not entitle you to a refund.

14. Copyright and DMCA

We respect intellectual property rights. However, since LizMusic does not host, store, or provide any content, any copyright issues are solely between you and the copyright holders. If you believe that any content accessible through the App infringes your copyright, please contact us with:

• Description of the copyrighted work
• Your contact information
• A statement of good faith belief that the use is not authorized
• A statement that the information is accurate and you are authorized to act

Note: We cannot remove content as we do not host any content. Copyright claims should be directed to the user or their cloud storage provider.

15. Governing Law
