Lynx VPN
Terms of Service

Effective date: 29 August, 2025

1. Acceptance of the Terms

These Terms of Service (Terms) govern your access to and use of the Lynx VPN and related VPN services (the Services). By installing or using the Services, you agree to be bound by these Terms on your own behalf and, if applicable, on behalf of the entity you represent. If you do not agree, do not use the Services.

If you accept these Terms on behalf of a company or other entity, you represent and warrant that you have authority to bind that entity.

Eligibility: You must be at least 16 years old or the age of majority in your jurisdiction, whichever is higher, to use the Services.

2. The Services

Lynx VPN provides a consumer VPN service for personal, lawful use. A free tier may be supported by advertising, and paid features may be available via in-app purchases (Subscriptions).

Service availability, server locations, features, and performance may change from time to time. The Services are not guaranteed to be uninterrupted or error-free.

3. Privacy

Your privacy is important to us. Our Privacy Policy explains what data we process, for what purposes, how long we keep it, and your rights. The Privacy Policy is incorporated into these Terms by reference. Please review it carefully before using the Services.

4. License and restrictions

We grant you a limited, revocable, non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable license to download and use one copy of the app on a compatible device that you own or control, solely for your personal, non-commercial use and in accordance with these Terms.

You may not: resell, rent, or lease access; share paid access with others; circumvent or disable security or technical controls; reverse engineer, decompile, or attempt to derive source code except where permitted by law; remove proprietary notices; use automated means to access the Services without permission; or use the Services in any manner not expressly authorized by these Terms.

5. Acceptable Use Policy (AUP)

You agree not to, and not to enable others to:

Use the Services for unlawful, illegal, fraudulent, or harmful activities (including spamming, phishing, hacking, identity theft, distribution of malware, operation of botnets, port scanning, DDoS attacks, or activities that infringe intellectual property or privacy rights).

Exploit or harm minors in any way, including possessing or distributing child sexual abuse material.

Interfere with, disrupt, or attempt to gain unauthorized access to networks, devices, accounts, or the Services, or probe or test their vulnerability.

Upload, transmit, or facilitate the distribution of content that is illegal, abusive, harassing, hateful, threatening, or otherwise objectionable or harmful.

Misuse the Services in a way that imposes unreasonable load or degrades experience for others (for example, sustained excessive bandwidth consumption, attempts to bypass service limits, or abuse of concurrent sessions).

Compile, utilize, bulk obtain, or distribute IP addresses of our servers, or otherwise attempt to evade service or regional restrictions.

Use the Services for military, warfare, or weapons-development purposes where prohibited by applicable law.
We may investigate suspected violations and take any action we deem appropriate, including rate limiting, session termination, restricting access to specific servers, blocking device identifiers, or suspending/terminating access as described in Section 11.

6. Subscriptions, trials, renewal, cancellation, and refunds

Platforms and billing: Subscriptions are offered and billed exclusively through Apple App Store and Google Play. Prices, taxes, and billing terms are determined by the relevant store.

Auto-renewal: Subscriptions renew automatically at the end of each term unless canceled. Manage or cancel your Subscription in your Apple or Google account settings at least 24 hours before the renewal to avoid further charges.

Trials and promotions: If a free trial or promotional offer is provided, it will convert to a paid Subscription unless canceled in accordance with the store's rules.

Price changes: If prices change, the store will handle notice and your renewal options per its policies. Continued use after the change takes effect indicates acceptance.

Refunds: Refunds for purchases made via App Store or Google Play are handled solely by Apple or Google under their respective policies. We do not provide direct refunds.

7. Entitlements without an account; device linkage

The Services do not require you to create an account with us. Access to paid features is linked to your platform store account and may also rely on an app-generated device identifier to validate entitlements, prevent abuse, and enforce service limits.

Cross-platform entitlement (e.g., moving a purchase from iOS to Android or vice versa) is not guaranteed unless expressly stated.

We may enforce reasonable limits on concurrent connections, sessions, bandwidth, or usage to maintain service quality.

8. Advertising

The free tier may display advertisements served by Google AdMob. We do not control and are not responsible for third-party ad content. Personalized advertising is subject to your consent where required by law and your device settings. For details, see our Privacy Policy.

Reporting ad concerns: If you encounter inappropriate ads, email us at [Support Email] with a brief description (for example, approximate time, your country, and where in the app you saw it). Please do not send screenshots or file attachments.

9. Third-party services and links

The Services may include or rely on third-party content and services (including Apple, Google, and Google AdMob). We do not control third-party terms, policies, or availability and are not responsible for them. Your interactions with third parties are solely between you and those third parties.

10. Updates, changes, and availability

We may update the app automatically or require you to install updates to continue using the Services. Features may be added, changed, or removed at any time.

We may modify these Terms from time to time. Material changes will be communicated in-app. The effective date appears at the top. Your continued use after the effective date constitutes acceptance of the revised Terms.

11. Suspension and termination

We may suspend or terminate your access (including blocking your device identifier) with or without notice if: (i) we reasonably believe you violated these Terms or applicable laws; (ii) your use poses a security, legal, or operational risk; (iii) required by law or a regulator; or (iv) in response to fraudulent payments or chargebacks.

You may stop using the Services at any time. Cancel your Subscription through the applicable app store as described in Section 6. Termination will not relieve you of any payment obligations already incurred.

12. Ownership and intellectual property

The Services, software, and all related content are owned by us and our licensors and are protected by intellectual property laws. Except for the limited license in Section 4, no rights are granted to you by implication or otherwise. All trademarks, logos, and service marks are the property of their respective owners and may not be used without permission.

13. Disclaimers

The Services are provided "as is" and "as available", without warranties of any kind, express or implied. We do not warrant that the Services will meet your requirements, be uninterrupted, timely, secure, error-free, compatible with third-party services, or that any defects will be corrected.

To the maximum extent permitted by law, we disclaim all warranties, including implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, title, and non-infringement. You use the Services at your own risk.

14. Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, in no event will we be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, punitive, or exemplary damages, or for loss of profits, data, goodwill, or business interruption, arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Services, even if advised of the possibility of such damages.

Our total aggregate liability for all claims relating to the Services will not exceed the greater of: (i) the amounts you paid to us for the Services in the twelve (12) months immediately preceding the event giving rise to the claim; or (ii) USD 50 if you use only the free tier. Some jurisdictions do not allow certain limitations; in such cases, these limitations apply to the fullest extent permitted.

15. Indemnity

You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless us and our affiliates, officers, directors, employees, and agents from and against any claims, liabilities, damages, losses, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising out of or related to your violation of these Terms or misuse of the Services.

16. Export control and sanctions

You must comply with all applicable export control, sanctions, and embargo laws and regulations. You may not use the Services if you are located in, or are a resident or national of, a country or region subject to comprehensive sanctions, or if you are on a restricted parties list.

17. Governing law and dispute resolution

Governing law: These Terms and any non-contractual obligations arising out of or in connection with them are governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of Singapore, without regard to conflict-of-law rules.

Arbitration: Any dispute, controversy, or claim arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Services (including their formation, existence, validity, interpretation, breach, or termination) shall be referred to and finally resolved by arbitration administered by the Singapore International Arbitration Centre (SIAC) in accordance with the SIAC Rules then in force, which rules are deemed incorporated by reference into this clause.

Seat/venue: The seat (place) of arbitration shall be Singapore.

Tribunal and language: The tribunal shall consist of one arbitrator unless the parties agree otherwise. The language of the arbitration shall be English.

18. Miscellaneous

Severability: If any provision is held invalid or unenforceable, the remaining provisions remain in full force and effect.

No waiver: Failure to enforce any provision is not a waiver of future enforcement.

Assignment: You may not assign or transfer these Terms or any rights hereunder without our prior written consent. We may assign these Terms in connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets.

Force majeure: We are not liable for delays or failures due to events beyond our reasonable control.

Entire agreement: These Terms, together with the Privacy Policy and any in-app notices, constitute the entire agreement between you and us regarding the Services and supersede all prior understandings.
