This includes copyright, trademark, privacy, publicity, and other intellectual-property rights.
Project files and images may be stored locally on your device.

We may restrict access to the Services where reasonably necessary to prevent misuse, security risks, or legal violations.
The App may include software made available under open-source licences.
Open-source components remain subject to their applicable licence terms. Where an open-source licence conflicts with these Terms, the open-source licence will apply to that component.
Relevant copyright notices and licence information may be provided in the App, on our website, or with the source code.
Except for user-created content and open-source components, the App’s original branding, interface elements, graphics, documentation, custom resources, and other materials are owned by or licensed to Krita Project Foundation GE.
These Terms do not grant you ownership of our trademarks, branding, or proprietary materials.
Krita Project Foundation GE is an independent organization and is not affiliated with or endorsed by Stichting Krita Foundation, KDE, Apple, or Google.
“Krita” and other third-party names and trademarks belong to their respective owners.
We may update, improve, modify, suspend, or discontinue parts of the App at any time.
Updates may be required to maintain compatibility, security, or functionality. Some features may change or become unavailable in future versions.
We may also update these Terms. The revised version will be published with a new effective date.
Continued use of the App after an update means that you accept the revised Terms.
The App may include links to, integrations with, or content from third-party services.
Third-party services are governed by their own terms and privacy policies. We are not responsible for their availability, content, security, or practices.
Your use of Apple App Store and Google Play is also subject to the applicable store terms.
If paid features, subscriptions, or in-app purchases are introduced, payments will be processed through the relevant app store or authorized payment provider.
Pricing, renewal, cancellation, and refund conditions will be presented before purchase and will also be subject to the rules of the relevant app store.
Unless required by law, we do not independently control refunds for purchases processed by Apple or Google.
Your use of the App is also governed by our Privacy Policy.
The Privacy Policy explains how information is collected, used, stored, and protected.
The App is provided on an “as is” and “as available” basis.
We aim to provide a stable and useful creative tool, but we do not guarantee that the App will always be uninterrupted, error-free, secure, or compatible with every device, file type, operating system, or third-party service.
To the extent permitted by law, we disclaim implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement.
Nothing in these Terms excludes warranties or consumer rights that cannot legally be excluded.
To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, Krita Project Foundation GE will not be liable for indirect, incidental, special, or consequential losses resulting from your use of or inability to use the App.
This includes loss of files, artwork, data, revenue, business opportunities, or expected savings.
Our liability will not be limited where such limitation is prohibited by law.
You may stop using the App and uninstall it at any time.
We may suspend or terminate access to related Services if you materially violate these Terms, misuse the App, create a security risk, or if required by law.
Sections that reasonably need to remain effective after termination will continue to apply.
These Terms are governed by the laws applicable to Krita Project Foundation GE, without limiting any mandatory consumer-protection rights available in your country of residence.
Any dispute should first be addressed by contacting us so that we can attempt to resolve it informally.
