Terms of Use & Disclaimer

Effective date: 2026-06-01
Last updated: 2026-06-01

By installing or using the Variance mobile app ("Variance," "the app"), you agree to these Terms of Use. If you do not agree, please do not use the app.

1. What Variance is

Variance is a personal record-keeping tool for tracking poker sessions you have played elsewhere. It is a journal and statistics tool only. Variance does not offer, facilitate, host, or process any form of real-money or simulated gambling. No wagering of any kind takes place inside the app.

2. Responsible play

Variance is intended for adults who already play poker in legally permitted settings. If gambling is affecting your finances, relationships, or wellbeing, free, confidential help is available:

3. No professional advice

Statistics, summaries, and visualizations produced by Variance are derived solely from the data you enter. They are provided for personal informational purposes and are not financial, tax, legal, or professional advice. Do not rely on Variance for tax reporting, accounting, or any decision with material financial consequences without consulting a qualified professional.

4. Accuracy of the app

The developer makes reasonable efforts to ensure Variance functions as intended, but the app is provided "as is" and "as available," without warranty of any kind, express or implied, including warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, accuracy, or non-infringement. The developer does not warrant that the app will be uninterrupted, error-free, or that calculations will be free of bugs.

5. Your data is your responsibility

All data you enter is stored locally on your device. The developer does not have a copy and cannot recover it. You are responsible for backing up your data through the app's export feature or your device's standard backup mechanisms (e.g., iCloud device backup, Google Drive backup). Loss of data due to device loss, damage, OS upgrades, app uninstallation, or any other cause is not the responsibility of the developer.

6. In-app purchases

Variance may offer optional in-app purchases. All payments are processed by Apple or Google through their respective stores. Refunds, billing disputes, and payment issues are handled by Apple or Google under their standard policies, not by the developer.

7. Acceptable use

You agree not to:

8. Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, the developer will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary, or punitive damages, or for any loss of profits, data, goodwill, or other intangible losses, arising out of or relating to your use of, or inability to use, the app. The developer's total liability for any claim relating to the app is limited to the amount you paid the developer for the app in the twelve (12) months before the claim arose, or USD $0 if you paid nothing.

Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or limitation of certain warranties or liabilities. In those jurisdictions, the above limitations apply to the maximum extent permitted by law.

9. Changes to these terms

The developer may update these Terms from time to time. Material changes will be reflected by updating the "Last updated" date above and, where appropriate, by an in-app notice. Continued use of Variance after an update constitutes acceptance of the revised Terms.

10. Governing law

These Terms are governed by the laws of the Commonwealth of Virginia, United States, without regard to its conflict-of-laws principles. Any dispute arising from these Terms or your use of the app will be resolved in the state or federal courts located in the Commonwealth of Virginia, and you consent to the jurisdiction of those courts.
