1. Acceptance of Terms
By accessing or using StatusVault — including the iOS app and the website at www.statusvault.org ("the App") — you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service. If you do not agree, please do not use the App. The App is published by KKB Tech.
2. Description of Service
StatusVault is a personal immigration document tracking application that helps you monitor expiry dates for visas, passports, work authorization documents, and other immigration-related materials. Features include document expiry tracking and reminders, immigration checklist management, travel history logging, family member document tracking, and optional encrypted cloud backup for Premium subscribers.
3. Not Legal Advice
StatusVault is an informational tool only. Nothing in the App constitutes legal advice or creates an attorney-client relationship. Always consult a licensed immigration attorney, your DSO, or the relevant government agency. StatusVault is not affiliated with USCIS, the US Department of State, DHS, or any government agency.
4. Accounts & Sign-In
You may use the App as a guest, or create an account using email + password, Google Sign-In, or Apple Sign-In. You are responsible for keeping your account credentials secure. You may not share your account or use another person's account without permission.
5. Free Trial & Premium Subscription
StatusVault offers a 14-day free trial on first install with full access to all features. After the trial, continued access requires a Premium subscription billed at $4.99 per year through Apple's in-app purchase system.
- The subscription auto-renews annually unless cancelled at least 24 hours before renewal.
- You can manage or cancel your subscription at any time in iOS Settings → Apple ID → Subscriptions.
- Documents you added during the trial remain on your device after the trial ends, but become inaccessible inside the App until you subscribe.
- Refunds are handled by Apple under their standard refund policy.
6. Privacy
Your use of the App is also governed by our Privacy Policy, incorporated by reference. Documents are stored locally on your device by default; Premium cloud backup is AES-256 encrypted on your device before upload; we do not sell or share your personal data.
7. Acceptable Use
You agree not to:
- Use the App for any unlawful purpose;
- Attempt to reverse-engineer, decompile, or compromise the App's security or encryption;
- Store knowingly false or fraudulent immigration documents in the App;
- Share or resell your account credentials;
- Use automated bots, scrapers, or scripts to access the App.
8. Disclaimers
9. Limitation of Liability
To the maximum extent permitted by law, KKB Tech and StatusVault shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, or consequential damages arising from your use of the App — including loss of immigration status, visa overstays, employment authorization lapses, or denial of immigration benefits.
10. Changes to Terms
We may modify these Terms at any time. Material changes will be reflected in the "Last updated" date at the top of this page. Continued use of the App after changes constitutes acceptance of the revised Terms.
11. Termination
You may stop using the App at any time. We may suspend or terminate access to the App for users who violate these Terms or engage in abusive behaviour. Upon termination of your account, we will delete your cloud-stored data within 30 days as described in the Privacy Policy.
12. Governing Law
These Terms are governed by the laws of the United States. Any disputes will be resolved in the courts of the State of Texas, USA.
