Dharma Mala / Terms

Terms of use
in plain words

Dharma Mala is a support tool for your practice. These terms apply together with Apple's Standard Licensed Application End User License Agreement.

Effective date: October 4, 2026

In short: Use the app for personal practice; Premium is a one-time purchase; calendar dates can differ between traditions—follow your teacher and lineage.

1. Licence

Your use of Dharma Mala is governed by Apple's Standard Licensed Application EULA and these terms. Where they differ, Apple's EULA prevails for matters it covers.

2. Premium (one-time purchase)

  • Premium is a single in-app purchase, paid once to your Apple Account when you confirm. It is not a subscription and never renews or charges again.
  • The price is shown in the app before purchase. Premium stays unlocked on every device signed in to the same Apple Account (use “Restore Purchases”).
  • Refunds are handled by Apple under its policies.
  • The free version keeps your practices and data; Premium adds features on top.

3. Library content

Documents, videos and meeting links you add stay on your device (and in your iCloud if you enable sync). Only add material you are permitted to keep, and respect any restrictions your teacher places on texts and recordings.

4. Calendar and religious content

Tibetan dates are calculated with the Phugpa system and checked against published calendars, but traditions and monasteries may observe days differently. Preset mantras follow commonly published versions. Almanac guidance (haircuts, prayer flags, travel directions and similar) is traditional advice from the sources credited in Settings → About → Licences; local customs vary and it is not medical or professional advice. Many Vajrayana practices require empowerment, transmission and guidance from a qualified teacher; the app does not confer any of these.

5. Your data

You are responsible for keeping backups of your data. See the Privacy Policy for how data is handled.

6. Acceptable use

Do not use the app to store or share unlawful content.

7. Disclaimer and liability

The app is provided “as is”. To the extent permitted by law, Yangopen is not liable for indirect or consequential losses, including lost practice records not backed up.
