Terms of Use
Effective date: August 19, 2026
Read this first. Pinglight is an informational awareness tool. It is not a detector of recording, listening, or surveillance; it is not a safety, security, or counter-surveillance device; and it cannot tell you that a room, a vehicle, or a person is clear. No Bluetooth scanner can do those things. Do not rely on it for your safety. Section 6 sets this out in full and is part of the bargain you accept when you use the App.
Publisher: Delvir Limited Liability Co. ("Delvir," "we," "us," "our"), a Wyoming limited liability company, 30 N Gould St, Ste R, Sheridan, WY 82801, United States. Contact: team@delvir.co
These Terms of Use ("Terms") are a binding agreement between you and Delvir. They govern your download, purchase, and use of the Pinglight iOS application (the "App"). By downloading, installing, or using the App, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, do not download or use the App, and delete it if you already have.
1. Relationship to Apple's license terms
The App is licensed to you under Apple's Standard End User License Agreement unless we provide a separate license agreement, in which case these Terms serve as that agreement and supersede Apple's Standard EULA to the extent permitted. These Terms are intended to meet Apple's minimum required terms for custom EULAs under the App Store Review Guidelines and the Apple Developer Program License Agreement, and include the required Apple provisions below.
This license is between you and Delvir, not Apple, and Apple is not a party to these Terms. Apple has no obligation whatsoever to furnish any maintenance or support services for the App. 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 for the App to you, if any; to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, Apple has 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 are our sole responsibility, as further set out in these Terms. We, not Apple, are responsible for addressing any claims by you or any third party relating to the App or your possession and/or use of it, including but not limited to: (i) product liability claims; (ii) any claim that the App fails to conform to any applicable legal or regulatory requirement; and (iii) claims arising under consumer protection, privacy, or similar legislation, including in connection with the App's use of any third-party service (of which the App uses none). In the event of any third-party claim that the App or your possession and use of it infringes that third party's intellectual property rights, we, not Apple, will be solely responsible for the investigation, defense, settlement, and discharge of any such intellectual property infringement claim.
You must comply with any applicable third-party terms of agreement when using the App. You and we each represent and warrant that (i) neither of us is located in a country subject to a U.S. Government embargo, or that has been designated by the U.S. Government as a "terrorist supporting" country, and (ii) neither of us is listed on any U.S. Government list of prohibited or restricted parties. You may not use or export the App except as authorized by United States law and the laws of the jurisdiction in which it was obtained.
Apple, and Apple's subsidiaries, are third-party beneficiaries of these Terms, and upon your acceptance of these Terms, Apple will have the right (and will be deemed to have accepted the right) to enforce these Terms against you as a third-party beneficiary of these Terms.
2. The App and how it works
Pinglight is a single-purchase, fully offline Bluetooth awareness app. Using your device's Bluetooth radio, it passively listens to the public advertisement broadcasts that nearby devices already transmit, and matches them on your device against public registries and documented broadcast patterns built into the App. It has no server, no account system, no in-app purchases, no advertising, and no network functionality of any kind — see our Privacy Policy for detail. The App only listens to broadcasts; it never connects to, pairs with, or interferes with any device.
The App is provided for general informational and educational purposes only. Nothing it displays is advice of any kind, and nothing it displays is a finding of fact about any device, any place, or any person.
3. License grant
Subject to your compliance with these Terms and Apple's Usage Rules, we grant you a limited, personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable, revocable license to download and use one copy of the App, for your own personal, non-commercial use, on any Apple-branded device that you own or control, as permitted by the App Store's Usage Rules.
4. Restrictions
You agree not to, and not to permit others to:
- Copy, modify, adapt, translate, or create derivative works of the App or its content.
- Reverse engineer, decompile, disassemble, or otherwise attempt to derive the source code of the App, except to the extent such restriction is expressly prohibited by applicable law.
- Rent, lease, lend, sell, sublicense, distribute, or otherwise transfer the App or any rights in it to any third party.
- Remove, obscure, or alter any proprietary notices on or in the App.
- Use the App to harass, stalk, surveil, monitor, profile, follow, or locate any person, or in any way that violates another person's privacy, or that violates any applicable law, including laws governing radio monitoring, interception, wiretapping, privacy, stalking, or harassment in your jurisdiction. You are solely responsible for knowing and complying with those laws.
- Use the App, or anything it displays, as the basis for any accusation against, confrontation with, or report about any identifiable person.
- Use the App in any circumstance where an inaccurate, incomplete, delayed, or missing result could contribute to death, personal injury, or property damage, or in any security, safety-of-life, emergency-response, law-enforcement, investigative, employment, or evidentiary context.
- Use the App for any unlawful purpose or in any way that violates these Terms.
5. Your responsibility for what you do with it
What you do with the information the App shows you is entirely your own decision and your own responsibility. The App reports radio broadcasts; it does not report people. A broadcast is not attributable to any particular individual, and the App does not and cannot tell you who owns, carries, or controls any device.
Accordingly, you agree that you are solely responsible for any action you take, or fail to take, on the basis of anything the App displays — including any accusation, confrontation, complaint, report, publication, recording, or physical response involving another person. You assume all risk arising from any such action. We are not responsible for the conduct of any third party, for any device any third party may or may not possess, for any misidentification of a device or of a person, or for any dispute, injury, claim, or loss arising between you and any other person in connection with your use of the App.
If you believe you are being followed, stalked, recorded, or otherwise placed in danger, contact your local law enforcement, a qualified security professional, or a support organization. Pinglight is not a substitute for any of them.
6. No detection guarantee; no reliance
PINGLIGHT IS AN INFORMATIONAL AWARENESS TOOL. IT IS NOT A DETECTOR OF RECORDING, LISTENING, OR SURVEILLANCE, IT IS NOT A SAFETY, SECURITY, ANTI-STALKING, OR COUNTER-SURVEILLANCE DEVICE, AND WE MAKE NO GUARANTEE, PROMISE, OR REPRESENTATION THAT IT WILL DETECT, FIND, IDENTIFY, OR CORRECTLY CLASSIFY ANY DEVICE — INCLUDING ANY CAMERA, MICROPHONE, RECORDER, TRACKER, BEACON, OR OTHER DEVICE OF ANY KIND. NO BLUETOOTH SCANNER CAN OFFER SUCH A GUARANTEE, AND THIS ONE DOES NOT.
The App reports that a Bluetooth broadcast is present and states what kind of device that broadcast is consistent with, together with a confidence level (High, Medium, or Low) and the reason for it. You acknowledge and agree that:
- A broadcast does not mean a device is recording, listening, or transmitting anything. It means a device is powered on and advertising. The App states this in its own interface, and you must not rely on the App to conclude that any device is or is not recording.
- An empty or quiet radar is not an all-clear. Absence from the radar is not absence of devices. Many devices never appear: devices that are switched off or not advertising, devices in a connected or paired state, devices that use Wi-Fi, cellular, wired, analog, or radio links other than Bluetooth, devices out of range or blocked by walls, bodies, metal, or interference, devices whose broadcasts your phone's operating system filters or throttles, and devices deliberately designed not to be found. The App must never be relied on as a "sweep," an inspection, a clearance, or an all-clear of any kind, for any place or any purpose.
- Identifications are estimates, and they can be wrong. Broadcast names are self-reported and trivially spoofable, hardware addresses rotate so that one device may appear as many, several products can share one broadcast pattern, and signal-strength distance bands (Near / Close / Far) are rough and easily distorted. Identifications, categories, confidence levels, counts, and proximity readings may be inaccurate, incomplete, out of date, or simply wrong, and a "High" confidence level is a statement about the strength of a public pattern match, not a certainty about any real device.
- The App depends on things we do not control — your device's Bluetooth radio and permissions, the operating system's scanning behavior, background and battery limits, radio congestion, and the accuracy of public registries — and it may miss broadcasts, drop them, or show them late.
- The App is not a substitute for professional technical surveillance countermeasures, a physical inspection, or advice from a qualified professional.
You agree not to rely on the App, or on the presence or absence of anything it displays, for your personal safety or security, for the safety or security of anyone else, for protection from surveillance or tracking, for gathering or preserving evidence, or for any decision where an error, omission, or delay could contribute to harm, loss, or a legal consequence. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, you assume the entire risk of any such reliance.
7. Intellectual property
The App — including its software, interface, artwork, text, and all other content included with the App (the "Content") — is owned by Delvir or its licensors and is protected by United States and international copyright, trademark, and other intellectual property laws. The App's device-identification tables are compiled from public registries; the compilation, presentation, and all original content are Delvir's. Third-party product, company, and brand names that may appear in the App are the property of their respective owners and are used only for descriptive identification of publicly documented broadcast patterns; their appearance does not imply any affiliation with, sponsorship by, or endorsement by those owners, and Pinglight is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by any device manufacturer, platform, or standards body. Nothing in these Terms transfers any ownership of the App or its Content to you; you receive only the limited license described in Section 3. All rights not expressly granted are reserved.
Feedback. If you send us suggestions, ideas, or feedback about the App, you grant us a perpetual, irrevocable, worldwide, royalty-free license to use them for any purpose without any obligation or compensation to you. Please do not send us anything you consider confidential.
8. Purchases, refunds, updates, and availability
The App is sold as a one-time purchase through the App Store. All purchases are processed by Apple, and refunds are handled by Apple, not by us, in accordance with Apple's refund policies and the terms you agreed to with Apple. We do not have the ability to independently process, approve, or issue refunds for App Store purchases. To request a refund, use Apple's "Report a Problem" process or contact Apple Support directly.
We have no obligation to provide updates, upgrades, new features, support, or continued availability of the App, and we may modify or discontinue the App, or any part of it, at any time. Continued compatibility with future versions of iOS or with any device is not guaranteed.
9. Disclaimer of warranties
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, THE APP IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE," WITH ALL FAULTS AND WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, WHETHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED, OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, ACCURACY, QUIET ENJOYMENT, TITLE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT. WITHOUT LIMITING THE FOREGOING, WE DO NOT WARRANT THAT THE APP WILL DETECT, FIND, IDENTIFY, OR CORRECTLY CLASSIFY ANY DEVICE, THAT ANY READING, IDENTIFICATION, CATEGORY, CONFIDENCE LEVEL, COUNT, OR PROXIMITY ESTIMATE WILL BE ACCURATE, COMPLETE, TIMELY, OR RELIABLE, OR THAT AN ABSENCE OF RESULTS INDICATES AN ABSENCE OF DEVICES. WE DO NOT WARRANT THAT THE APP WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, ERROR-FREE, OR FREE OF HARMFUL COMPONENTS, OR THAT ANY ERRORS WILL BE CORRECTED. NO ADVICE OR INFORMATION, WHETHER ORAL OR WRITTEN, OBTAINED FROM US OR THROUGH THE APP WILL CREATE ANY WARRANTY NOT EXPRESSLY STATED IN THESE TERMS. SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OF CERTAIN WARRANTIES, SO SOME OF THE ABOVE EXCLUSIONS MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU, AND YOU MAY HAVE OTHER RIGHTS THAT VARY BY JURISDICTION.
10. Limitation of liability
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, IN NO EVENT WILL DELVIR, ITS OFFICERS, MEMBERS, EMPLOYEES, AGENTS, OR CONTRACTORS BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR ANY LOSS OF PROFITS, DATA, GOODWILL, OR SECURITY, OR ANY PERSONAL INJURY, EMOTIONAL DISTRESS, OR PROPERTY DAMAGE, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO YOUR USE OF, OR INABILITY TO USE, THE APP — INCLUDING ANY RELIANCE ON ANY READING, IDENTIFICATION, OR ABSENCE OF A READING THAT THE APP DISPLAYS, ANY FAILURE OF THE APP TO DETECT OR IDENTIFY ANY DEVICE, AND ANY ACT OR OMISSION OF ANY THIRD PARTY — EVEN IF WE HAVE BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES AND EVEN IF A LIMITED REMEDY IS FOUND TO HAVE FAILED OF ITS ESSENTIAL PURPOSE.
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, OUR TOTAL AGGREGATE LIABILITY TO YOU FOR ALL CLAIMS ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THE APP OR THESE TERMS, ON ANY THEORY OF LIABILITY, WILL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF (A) THE AMOUNT YOU ACTUALLY PAID FOR THE APP, OR (B) TEN U.S. DOLLARS ($10). THESE LIMITS APPLY EVEN THOUGH THE APP IS A LOW-COST, ONE-TIME PURCHASE, AND THEY ARE AN ESSENTIAL BASIS OF THE BARGAIN BETWEEN US: WE COULD NOT OFFER THE APP AT THIS PRICE WITHOUT THEM.
SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE LIMITATION OR EXCLUSION OF LIABILITY FOR INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, SO THE ABOVE LIMITATION MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU. Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits liability that cannot lawfully be excluded or limited, such as liability for death or personal injury caused by our gross negligence, or for fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation.
11. Indemnification
You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Delvir and its officers, members, employees, agents, and contractors from and against any claims, liabilities, damages, losses, judgments, and expenses, including reasonable attorneys' fees, arising out of or in any way connected with (a) your breach of these Terms, (b) your misuse of the App, (c) your violation of any law or of any third party's rights, or (d) any claim brought by a third party arising from an action you took on the basis of information the App displayed — including any claim of defamation, harassment, stalking, invasion of privacy, or emotional distress. This does not apply to the extent a claim arises from our own willful misconduct or gross negligence. We reserve the right to assume the exclusive defense of any matter subject to indemnification by you, at your expense, and you agree to cooperate with that defense.
12. Minors and parental consent
If you are under the age of majority in your jurisdiction, you may only download, purchase, or use the App with the involvement and consent of a parent or legal guardian, who agrees to be bound by these Terms on your behalf. Parents and guardians are responsible for supervising use of Apple devices and App Store purchases by minors in their care, including via Apple's Screen Time and Ask to Buy features.
13. Termination
These Terms and the license granted under them remain in effect until terminated. We may terminate your license if you fail to comply with any term of these Terms; on termination, you must stop using the App and delete all copies. You may terminate at any time simply by deleting the App from your device, which also deletes all locally stored data (see our Privacy Policy). Sections 4 through 11 and 14 through 16 survive termination.
14. Governing law, disputes, and your options
Governing law. These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Wyoming, United States, without regard to its conflict-of-laws principles, except to the extent superseded by applicable federal law or by mandatory consumer-protection law of your place of residence, which may give you rights these Terms cannot displace.
Talk to us first. Before filing any formal claim, you agree to contact us at team@delvir.co with a short description of the problem and what you would like us to do, and to give us thirty (30) days to try to resolve it informally. Most problems with a $2.99 app can be settled in an email.
No arbitration requirement. We do not require you to arbitrate, and we do not force you out of court. If informal resolution fails, you are free to bring your claim in court.
Small claims. Either of us may bring an individual claim in a small-claims court that has jurisdiction, including the small-claims court where you live. For a dispute about a low-cost app, that is usually the fastest and cheapest route, and we will not object to it on venue grounds.
Other courts. For any claim that is not brought in small-claims court, you and we agree to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of the state and federal courts located in Wyoming, and each of us consents to personal jurisdiction there — except where applicable law entitles you to bring proceedings in the courts of your own country or state of residence, in which case that right is unaffected.
Individual claims only; jury waiver. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, you and we each agree to bring claims against the other only in an individual capacity, and not as a plaintiff or class member in any purported class, collective, consolidated, private-attorney-general, or representative proceeding, and each of us waives any right to a trial by jury. If this paragraph is held unenforceable as to a particular claim or in your jurisdiction, it does not affect the rest of this Section 14 or these Terms. Nothing here prevents you from reporting a concern to, or participating in a proceeding brought by, a government agency, or from participating in a class-wide settlement.
Time limit. To the extent permitted by applicable law, any claim arising out of or relating to the App or these Terms must be filed within one (1) year after the claim arises, or it is permanently barred. This does not apply where the law of your place of residence prohibits shortening the limitation period.
15. Changes to these Terms
We may update these Terms from time to time, for example to reflect a new App feature. If we make a material change, we will update the "Effective date" above and, where required, notify you through the App Store listing or an in-app notice before the change takes effect. Changes are not retroactive and do not apply to any dispute of which we had notice before the change. Continued use of the App after a change takes effect constitutes acceptance of the revised Terms; if you do not accept them, stop using the App and delete it.
16. General
Severability. If any provision of these Terms is held unenforceable, that provision will be limited or severed to the minimum extent necessary, and the remaining provisions remain in full force and effect. Waiver. Our failure to enforce any provision is not a waiver of it. Assignment. You may not assign or transfer these Terms or any rights under them; we may assign them to an affiliate or in connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets. No other third-party beneficiaries. Except for Apple and its subsidiaries as described in Section 1, these Terms create no rights in any third party. Notices. You consent to receive communications from us electronically, including at the email address you use to contact us; notices to us go to team@delvir.co. U.S. Government end users. The App is "commercial computer software" and "commercial computer software documentation" as those terms are used in 48 C.F.R. §12.212 and §227.7202, licensed to U.S. Government end users only as commercial items and with only those rights granted to all other end users. Headings. Section headings are for convenience only. Entire agreement. These Terms, together with the Privacy Policy, are the entire agreement between you and us regarding the App, except for Apple's Standard EULA and Usage Rules, which continue to apply as described in Section 1.
