2. Using our Apps
2.1 In return for complying with these Conditions, you may download a copy of the App (including upgrades and releases) to your devices for the purpose of (a) answering certain survey questions (“Questions”); and (b) viewing the all information contained within the App, including the daily insight based on the responses to the Questions, our reports and blog (“App Content”) for your personal, non-commercial purposes only.
2.2 You must answer the Questions honestly and to the best of your knowledge.
2.3 We are giving you personally the right to use the App on a non-exclusive basis. You may not transfer an App to someone else. You must not register under someone else’s name.
2.4 No one under 18 may use an App. However, as the parent or legal guardian of a child you may answer Questions on their behalf provided you have their consent or have parental responsibility for them. You will need to follow the process in the App to confirm you have their consent or parental responsibility, and the right to share their personal data (including their sensitive personal data) with us. If we need to verify this further, you agree to provide us with reasonable evidence to confirm you have consent or parental responsibility.
2.5 When you provide your answers to Questions, you authorise and direct us to make such copies of your answers as we consider necessary in order to facilitate the publication, display and storage of those answers as part of the App Content for the purposes of our business, including providing reports and App Content to our clients (subject to Clause 2.7). Your answers will generally be anonymised, so your identity cannot be revealed by your answers. However, if (with your consent) we combine or connect aggregated data with your personal data in such a way that it can directly or indirectly identify you, we treat this as personal data in accordance with Clause 2.7 and our Privacy Policy.
2.6 Where your answers are used or stored by us in a way that your identity is not revealed, you grant to us an irrevocable, perpetual, non-exclusive, transferable, fully paid, worldwide license (with the right to sublicense) to use, copy, publicly perform, publicly display, reformat, translate, excerpt (in whole or in part) and distribute such content for any purpose on or in connection with the App or the promotion of it, to prepare derivative works of, or incorporate into other works, such content.
2.7 Where your answers are used or stored by us in way that your identity might be revealed, you grant to us the same licence as in Clause 2.6, except that it is also subject to your continuing consent and the terms of our Privacy Policy. You may withdraw your consent at any time, in which case the license granted in this Clause 2.7 will automatically expire and we will cease using or storing your answers in any way that your identity might be revealed.
2.8 You shall comply with all of our reasonable instructions relating to an App. We may, at our sole discretion, provide upgrades and new releases of Apps from time to time.

4.3 If there is a problem with an App that damages a device or any other digital content belonging to you and this is caused by our failure to use reasonable skill and care, we will either repair the damage or pay you compensation up to £20 per device subject to proof of the loss or damage.

7. Additional Terms if you download the App from the Apple iTunes App Store
7.1 We both acknowledge that these Conditions are concluded between you and us only, and not with Apple, and therefore, we, not Apple, are solely responsible for the App and the content of the App. The licence granted to you for the App is limited to a non- transferable licence to use the App on an iPad that you own or control and as permitted by the Usage Rules set forth in the App Store Terms and Conditions. We, not Apple, are solely responsible for providing any maintenance and support services with respect to the App, as specified in these Conditions. We both acknowledge that Apple has no obligation whatsoever to furnish any maintenance and support services with respect to the App. We are solely responsible for any product warranties, whether express or implied by law, to the extent not effectively disclaimed in these Conditions. In the event of any failure of the App to conform to any applicable warranty, you may notify Apple, and Apple will refund the purchase price (if any) for the App to you. To the maximum extent permitted by law, Apple will have no other warranty obligation whatsoever with respect to the App, and any other claims, losses, liabilities, damages, costs or expenses attributable to any failure to conform to any warranty will be our sole responsibility. We both acknowledge that we, not Apple, are responsible for addressing any claims by you or any third-party relating to the App or your use or possession of the App, including, but not limited to (a) product liability claims; (b) any claim that the App fails to conform to any applicable legal or regulatory requirement; and (c) claims arising under consumer protection or similar legislation. We both acknowledge that, in the event of any third-party claim that the App or your possession and use of the App infringes that third-party’s intellectual property rights, we, not Apple, will be solely responsible for the investigation, defence, settlement and discharge of any such intellectual property infringement claim. You represent and warrant that (a) you are not located in a country that is subject to a U.S. Government embargo, or that has been designated by the U.S. Government as a “terrorist supporting” country; and (b) you are not listed on any U.S. Government list of prohibited or restricted parties. We both acknowledge and agree that Apple, and Apple’s subsidiaries, are third-party beneficiaries of these Conditions, and that, upon acceptance of these Conditions, Apple will have the right (and will be deemed to have accepted the right) to enforce these Conditions against you as a third-party beneficiary thereof.
