Effective date: 28 September 2026
These Terms of Use ("Terms") govern the contractual relationship, where applicable, between you and Seyedmohammad Farrahi, Einzelunternehmer, trading as "Gleaner" ("we", "us", "our"), for the Gleaner app and related services (the "Services"). Full contact details are in the Impressum.
1.1 These Terms and the Privacy Policy are available before a purchase and can be saved from this site. Mandatory pre-contractual information shown by the applicable app store remains part of the transaction.
1.2 Apple or Google may impose separate terms for its store, account, payment, and platform services. Those separate relationships do not reduce rights you have against us under mandatory law.
1.3 You may enter a paid contract only if you have the legal capacity or required representative consent under the law that applies to you.
2.1 If you need these Terms or the Privacy Policy in an accessible alternative format, email kabok.company@gmail.com.
3.1 Gleaner groups similar photos, provides an on-device quality suggestion, and lets you review what to keep or delete. The free version allows cleanup of three groups in total. The count is kept on your device and can continue after the app is reinstalled or the device is restored from a backup. Pro unlocks unlimited cleanups.
3.2 Photo analysis happens on your device. We do not receive photo content. Current functionality, compatibility, operating-system requirements, and Pro options are described in the store listing and in the app before purchase.
3.3 The Services are intended for personal, non-commercial use.
3.4 Optional rewarded ads. Once the free cleanups are used, the free version may offer an optional rewarded ad served by Google AdMob on a separate sheet that also offers Pro. Watching an ad is voluntary and never required to use Gleaner. One completed ad grants credits for further group cleanups, currently three; the number is shown before the ad starts and may change. You can currently complete at most three rewarded ads within 24 hours; after that, the sheet shows when the next ad becomes available. Credits are granted when Google's ad reports that the reward has been earned; closing the ad before that grants nothing. Credits have no monetary value and cannot be transferred, exchanged, or paid out. They are stored only on your device and may be lost when the app is uninstalled or its data is deleted; we do not guarantee that a credit survives a reinstallation or a device change. We do not guarantee that an ad is available at any given time. Pro removes ads. Ad content is provided by advertisers through Google; we do not select or endorse it. The Privacy Policy describes the related data processing and your consent choices.
3.5 Watching an ad is not a payment. Where applicable law treats the personal data processed in connection with an ad as consideration for the credits (Sections 312(1a) and 327(3) BGB), the statutory rules for digital products apply to the credits. Because the credits are supplied as soon as they are granted, a statutory right of withdrawal for them ends at that moment (Section 356(6) No. 1 BGB).
4.1 On-device machine-learning models estimate similarity and quality. Results can be incomplete or wrong and are suggestions, not an objective judgment.
4.2 You remain in control and review the selection before deletion. The models do not generate media, and no gallery photo is sent to Gleaner or an external AI service for analysis or training.
5.1 Review every selection and keep an independent backup where a photo matters to you. System recovery behavior depends on platform and operating-system version.
5.2 On iOS, deletion uses Recently Deleted. Android 11 and later uses MediaStore Trash. The operating system controls recovery and later removal.
5.3 Android 8 through 10 and macOS folder cleanup delete permanently after a warning. Statutory remedies and liability under Sections 12 and 13 remain unaffected.
6.1 Gleaner is not designed for children. Applicable rules on legal capacity, parental consent, and child protection determine whether and how a minor may use it.
6.2 Gleaner has no user account. You are responsible for reasonable security of your device and store account.
7.1 Pro is offered through the applicable store as auto-renewing subscriptions, with the billing periods shown in the app and the store, and as a one-time purchase.
7.2 Before you confirm, the app and the applicable store show the localized tax-inclusive price, the billing period, the renewal terms, and trial eligibility where applicable. The app links to the store's subscription settings, where you can cancel. The store's terms and receipt contain its withdrawal and refund information. Payment is processed through your store account. We do not receive your card details.
7.3 A subscription renews only on the period, price, and renewal terms shown by the applicable store. Price changes and notices apply as required by the store transaction and mandatory law.
7.4 A trial is available only when the store's product and eligibility response offers it to you. The displayed duration, post-trial price, and renewal terms govern that offer; trial eligibility is not guaranteed.
7.5 Manage or cancel a subscription through the cancellation interface identified by the applicable store. Deleting the app does not itself cancel a subscription.
7.6 The one-time Pro purchase is restorable through the relevant store account for the supported product life, subject to mandatory rights. It is not a promise that every device, operating system, or store will be supported indefinitely.
7.7 The app provides a Restore action. Restoration requires the same relevant store account and the store's successful entitlement response.
7.8 Mandatory withdrawal, cancellation, conformity, update, and refund rights under applicable consumer law remain unaffected. A right is lost only where the legal requirements for express consent, acknowledgement, and confirmation are met.
7.9 For consumers in the European Union, the store sells Pro in its own name: on the App Store, Apple Distribution International Ltd. acts for us as commissionaire, and on Google Play, Google Commerce Limited is the merchant of record. The store takes the payment, provides the order confirmation and receipt, and handles a statutory withdrawal and refunds for the purchase through its own withdrawal function and terms (App Store: the purchase history in your Apple Account; Google Play: the withdrawal form and refund request in Google Play Help). Outside the European Union, the store's terms state who sells the purchase. We receive neither your payment details nor your identity and cannot cancel or refund a store purchase ourselves; if you contact us, we will point you to the right place. Support for the app itself remains with us.
8.1 Subject to applicable law and these Terms, we grant a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable license to use the Services on supported devices you own or control for personal, non-commercial purposes.
8.2 The app, models, design, and marks belong to us or our licensors. Rights not expressly granted remain reserved.
8.3 Feedback may be used without payment, but this does not transfer ownership of your pre-existing rights or personal data.
9.1 Do not reverse-engineer or extract protected source or models except where law permits; resell or commercially exploit the Services; circumvent purchase or security controls; introduce malware; unlawfully interfere with the Services; or use them to violate another person's rights.
10.1 Apple and Google provide store distribution and payment services. Google Firebase provides required purchase verification and app attestation on iOS and Android. It provides optional pseudonymous Analytics only after opt-in. Google AdMob serves the optional rewarded ads described in Section 3.4. macOS remains local. The Privacy Policy explains data roles and choices.
10.2 Availability can depend on your device, operating system, store, network, and third-party services. Your statutory rights against us are unaffected.
11.1 Similarity groups and quality scores are estimates and may contain errors. We do not promise uninterrupted availability or a particular aesthetic result.
11.2 Statutory rights concerning conformity, defects, remedies, updates, security updates, guarantees, and consumer protection remain fully unaffected.
12.1 Liability is determined by applicable statutory law and the specific rules in Section 13. Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits liability or remedies that cannot lawfully be excluded or limited.
13.1 We are liable without limitation for intent and gross negligence, injury to life, body, or health, liability under the Product Liability Act, and any expressly assumed guarantee.
13.2 For slight negligence, we are liable for breach of a material contractual obligation whose fulfilment enables proper performance and on which the other party may regularly rely. In that case, liability is limited to foreseeable damage typical for the contract, only where such a limit is legally permitted.
13.3 Mandatory liability and consumer rights, including digital-product conformity and remedies, take priority over this Section.
14.1 We may make necessary changes for maintenance, security, legal or technical compatibility, or where permitted by applicable digital-product law. Any legally required notice, valid reason, cost-free update, termination right, or remedy will be provided.
14.2 Statutory duties to provide functionality, conformity, updates, and security updates remain unaffected.
15.1 We may update these Terms for future contracts. For an existing contract, a change applies only with a valid contractual basis, required notice or consent, and any mandatory consumer protections. Mere continued use does not replace a legally required agreement.
16.1 You and we must comply with export-control and sanctions rules that lawfully apply to the relevant person and transaction.
17.1 German law applies, excluding the UN Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods. If you are a consumer, this choice does not deprive you of mandatory protection provided by the law of your habitual residence.
17.2 Statutory rules determine jurisdiction and venue. No exclusive merchant venue is imposed on a consumer.
18.1 If a provision is invalid or unenforceable, the remaining provisions stay effective where legally possible. Statutory law fills any resulting contract gap.
19.1 A failure to enforce a right is not a waiver. These Terms, the applicable purchase information, and incorporated policies form the agreement for the relevant Services, subject to mandatory law.
20.1 We may communicate through email, the app, or the site. Where law requires a durable medium, a particular form, or proof of receipt, the legally required method applies.
