The App temporarily stores your Content in a manner such that deletion or malfunction of the App or malfunction of the Device on which the App is installed may result in the permanent deletion of your Content.

We are under no obligation to publicly display Content that is posted to private repositories, or that is hidden by election of the contributing Bower User.

All Content, whether publicly posted on or privately transmitted within private groups, is the sole responsibility of the Bower User from which such Content originated.

We may refuse or delete any Content, including Content of which we become aware that fails to fulfill the purpose of the Services, is in breach of these Terms, is otherwise contrary to law, or is otherwise inappropriate in our discretion.

This information is reported in the app when a user scans a package. We do not guarantee the accuracy, integrity or quality of either this or any other content. Under no circumstances are we responsible for any content that contains inaccuracies or omissions or for any loss or damage of any kind that has occurred as a result of the use of any content.

We do not accept responsibility if the user improperly sorts their packaging. We will have no obligation or liability to you or any Bower User to maintain, store, or license Content, protect and maintain Content owners’ intellectual property rights, or to enforce these Terms. You hereby waive and release any claims you may have against us arising or resulting from use or misuse of Content or your inability to effectively use Content, your failure to comply with these Terms, or for any act, omission, or conduct of any Bower User. If you as a user of the Bower Solution, see Content that you consider inappropriate in any way, please inform us and identify how the Content in question fails to comply with these Terms by sending an e-mail to hello@getbower.com and we will look in to the issue and delete any Content found in our discretion to be in conflict with these Terms.
