inkPad terms of service

Effective date: 4 November 2026

inkPad is a note-taking and PDF annotation app for Android tablets, provided by HO NGOC HUYEN TRAN ("we"). Questions about these terms: support@inkpad.work. By creating an account or using inkPad you agree to these terms and to the privacy policy.

Your account and your content

You need an account to use inkPad. Keep your sign-in details safe; you are responsible for what happens under your account.
Your notes, handwriting, pictures and PDFs stay yours. We only store and sync them so you can open them on your devices, as described in the privacy policy.
Only add content you have the right to use. Do not use inkPad to break the law or to harm others or the service.
You can export your notes at any time and delete your account from Settings > Account. See delete your account.

Plans

Free: works on your device with a limit on the number of files (notes and imported PDFs, including files in Trash) and on sync.
Classic: a one-time purchase that removes the file limit. It does not expire.
Premium: a subscription, billed monthly or yearly, with more sync storage and devices. A yearly plan may start with a free trial; if you do not cancel before the trial ends, it renews at the price shown in Google Play.
Prices and what each plan includes are shown in the app and in Google Play before you buy. Plans and prices may change; a change never takes away something you already paid for.

Payments and refunds

Payments are processed by Google Play, not by inkPad. Your purchase is also subject to Google Play's terms.

Within 48 hours: you can ask Google for a refund of a Play purchase made in the last 48 hours, through Google Play.
Classic: if you ask us within 14 days of buying it, at support@inkpad.work from the email on your account, we will ask Google to refund you.
Subscriptions: you can cancel at any time in the Play Store under Subscriptions. You keep Premium until the end of the period you paid for. We do not refund the unused part of a period, except where the law requires it or where we choose to, case by case. The free trial costs nothing; cancel before it ends to avoid being charged.
Mistakes and problems: if you were charged by mistake, or the purchase did not work, write to us and we will fix it or refund you.
EU and UK right of withdrawal: if you live in the EEA or the UK, you normally have 14 days to withdraw from a purchase of digital content or services. When you buy in Google Play you agree that the purchase starts right away, so this right ends once the plan is delivered. Classic stays refundable for 14 days as described above.
Your rights: nothing here limits any refund or consumer right you have under the law where you live.

When a plan ends or is refunded

Your notes are never deleted because a plan ends. If a subscription expires or a purchase is refunded, the paid benefits stop. Everything already in your library stays viewable, searchable and exportable. If you are over the free file or storage limit, you cannot add new files or upload new data until you are back under the limit or buy a plan again.

Using the service

We work to keep inkPad and sync available, but we do not promise it will always run without errors or interruptions. Keep your own backup of anything important; export is free.
We may suspend or close an account that is used to attack or abuse the service. We will tell you why where we can.
inkPad is provided as it is. To the extent the law allows, we are not liable for lost data or indirect losses, and our total liability to you is limited to what you paid us in the 12 months before the claim. This does not limit liability that cannot be limited by law.

Changes

If these terms change, the new version will be posted here with a new effective date. If you keep using inkPad after that, you accept the new terms. For a change that is worse for paying users, we will tell you in the app first.
