End User License Agreement
Last Updated: 29 August 2025
This End User License Agreement ("Agreement") is a binding legal agreement between you, as an individual or entity (âyouâ), and ASAPIUS, UNIPESSOAL LDA, doing business as HOURBONDÂź (âHourbondâ, âCompanyâ, âweâ, âusâ, "our"). By downloading, installing, or using the HourbondÂź mobile application (the "App") for Android, iOS or other mobile platform, as applicable, you agree to be bound by the terms of this Agreement.
For clarification, any Hourbond service accessed through the App, or otherwise, is also subject to our Terms and Conditions and Privacy Policy (the âUser Agreementâ). The App and related features (collectively the âServicesâ) are also governed by the User Agreement.
Hourbond reserves the right, at its sole discretion, to change, modify, add or remove portions of this Agreement, at any time without prior notice. It is your responsibility to check this Agreement periodically for changes. Your continued use of the Services following the posting of changes will mean that you accept and agree to the changes. You represent and warrant that you have the right and authority to enter into this Agreement and that by doing so, you will not violate any law or breach any obligation to any third party.
IF YOU DO NOT AGREE TO THIS AGREEMENT, DO NOT USE THE APP AND DELETE IT. YOU AGREE THAT INSTALLATION OR USE OF THE APP SIGNIFIES THAT YOU HAVE READ, UNDERSTOOD, AND AGREED TO BE BOUND BY THIS AGREEMENT.
Acknowledgement
You acknowledge that this Agreement is between you and Hourbond only. You also acknowledge that Apple, Google, or any of its subsidiaries, are only third-party beneficiaries (the "Beneficiaries") to the Agreement, and that, upon your acceptance of the terms and conditions of the Agreement, the Beneficiaries will have the right (and will be deemed to have accepted the right) to enforce the Agreement against you as a third-party beneficiary thereof.
To the extent that you are accessing the App through an Apple mobile application, you acknowledge the license granted to you by Hourbond under the Agreement is subject to the permitted Usage Rules set forth in the Apple Media Services Terms, any third-party terms of agreement applicable to the Service and does not limit Appleâs standard Licensed Application End User License Agreement (https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/). Your license to the iOS version of the App is limited to Apple-branded products you own or control and as permitted by the Apple Media Services Terms. Hourbond is solely responsible for any maintenance and support services with respect to the App, to the extent such services are provided or required by law; Apple has no obligation to furnish maintenance or support. To the maximum extent permitted by law, any warranties for the App are provided by Hourbond (if any); Apple has no warranty obligations.

Disclaimer and Limitations of Liability
Hourbond reserves the right to modify the Services. You are responsible for providing your own access to the Services. The Services are provided on an âas isâ and âas availableâ basis, and we make no express or implied representations or warranties regarding it. You therefore use the Services at your own risk. Hourbond expressly disclaims any and all representations or warranties of any kind, whether express or implied, including, but not limited to, merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement, compatibility, security, accuracy or uninterrupted availability.
The Services (including without limitation any content or other part thereof) may contain general information only and by making the Services available, Hourbond is not rendering professional advice or services. Although we make reasonable efforts to update the information on our Services, we make no representations, warranties, or guarantees, whether expressed or implied, that the content on our Services is accurate, complete, or up to date. Before making any decision or taking action that might affect you or your business, you should consult a qualified professional advisor.

Some jurisdictions do not allow limitations of liability, so the foregoing limitation may not apply to you.

Any dispute you have with any Third-Party Services or other third party using the Services, including, but not limited to, any Business or Client or User, is directly between you and that third party.
