The terms, in brief.

These terms govern your use of the Torba iOS app, the torba.metehanbicer.com pages where draws open, and the Torba pages on metehanbicer.com, provided by Metehan Biçer, an independent developer based in Türkiye (“the developer”). Because you get the app from the App Store, Apple’s Licensed Application End User License Agreement (EULA) also applies. These terms add to the EULA; where they conflict, the EULA prevails.

The content and conduct rules also apply to participants who open a draw in a browser to pick their name, write a wish or add themselves.

I grant you a non-transferable, non-exclusive licence to use Torba on Apple devices you own or control, for personal, non-commercial purposes, within the App Store Usage Rules. Copying, modifying, reverse engineering or redistributing the app is not allowed, except where the law expressly permits it. The app, its icons, images and texts belong to the developer.

Torba is free. There are no ads, subscriptions or in-app purchases. Nothing is bought or paid for through Torba.

Names are drawn at random so that nobody draws themselves or someone the organiser kept apart with a “Don’t pair” rule. Neither the developer nor the organiser can choose who gets whom. If the rules make a draw impossible, no draw is made. The organiser can draw again; all matches then change.

The organiser of a draw is responsible for the participant list, the names they add, the rules they set and the people they share the link with. Only add other people’s names for a draw they know about. Anyone who knows the link can see the names in the draw, so share it only with the people taking part. If you let people join from the link, it is up to the organiser to check the list before drawing.

Draw titles, notes, budget texts, names, wishes and wishlist links are the content of whoever wrote them, and they are responsible for it. People with the link can see some of this content, so you agree not to add:

• Links to illegal goods, content or services.
• Offensive, hateful, harassing, sexually explicit or violent content.
• Other people’s personal information or copyrighted material without their permission.
• Scams, spam or links meant to mislead people.

You let me use your content only to provide the service, that is, to store the draw and show it to people who open its link as described in the privacy policy. Your rights in your content stay with you.

Anyone can report a draw from the app or its web page. I review reports myself. I may remove a draw that I find breaks the law or these terms, together with its names, wishes and matches, without notice. I may block use that breaks these terms again and again.

• Gifts, budgets and spending are between the participants. Torba does not guarantee that a gift will be bought, that the budget will be kept or that a gift will arrive on time, and it is not a party to any of it.
• The budget on a draw is only a note for the participants; no money is collected or transferred through Torba.
• Wishlist links go to third-party sites. Those sites are responsible for their content, products and prices. Torba has no partnership with any store and earns nothing from sales.

Torba has no accounts; the draws you organise and the names you pick are tied to your device by a key stored on it. If you lose or reset your device, you may lose the ability to manage your draws, and the organiser has to reset a name you picked before you can pick it again on a new device. Details are in the privacy policy.

Torba is provided “as is” and “as available”. I cannot guarantee that the app or the draw server will run without interruption or errors, or that your data will never be lost. I may change the service, or end it after announcing it a reasonable time in advance. Rights the law grants you that cannot be limited are not affected.

To the extent the law allows, the developer is not liable for indirect damages or data loss arising from using or being unable to use Torba, from the outcome of a draw, from gift giving and spending between participants, or from content added by users. This does not affect liability for intent or gross negligence, or your rights under consumer protection law.

I may update these terms. I will publish changes on this page and update the effective date. If a change is significant, I will also point it out in the app or on this site. Continuing to use Torba after a change means you accept the updated terms.

These terms are governed by the laws of the Republic of Türkiye. Turkish courts and enforcement offices have jurisdiction over disputes; consumers may also apply to consumer arbitration committees and consumer courts within the legal limits. Mandatory consumer protection rules of the country where you live are not affected.
