BrassTracker Terms of Use

Effective: May 2026

These Terms of Use ("Terms") govern your use of the BrassTracker iOS application ("BrassTracker" or "the app"). By installing or using BrassTracker, you agree to these Terms.

TL;DR

• BrassTracker is a personal record-keeping tool for handloaders.
• It does not publish loads, recommend pressures, or replace published manuals.
• Always cross-reference with published reloading manuals before pulling a trigger.
• You are responsible for safe handloading practices.
• The app is provided "as is". See the full disclaimer below.

What BrassTracker is

BrassTracker helps you log:

• Your firearms
• Your handload recipes (bullet, powder, primer, brass, charge weight, COAL, CBTO, etc.)
• Chronograph sessions and individual shot data
• Measured groups
• Brass lot wear over time
• Component costs

It is a logbook. A digital replacement for the spiral notebook many reloaders keep on the bench.

What BrassTracker is not

BrassTracker is not:

• A reloading manual
• A pressure-modeling tool
• A replacement for published load data from manufacturers (Hodgdon, Sierra, Berger, Hornady, etc.)
• A ballistics calculator (the base app is a logbook only; BrassTracker Pro is an optional in-app upgrade that adds a G1/G7 ballistics solver fed from your logged muzzle velocity)
• A licensing system or firearms registry

Always consult published load data from a reputable source. And your firearm's manual. Before building any handload. The numbers BrassTracker stores are the numbers you typed; the app does not validate, recommend, or warn against them.

Safety disclaimer

Handloading involves working with explosive propellants, primers, and high-pressure cartridges. Reloading errors can cause serious injury, death, or property damage.

You are solely responsible for:

1. Following published load data from reputable sources.
2. Working up loads from a starting charge and watching for pressure signs.
3. Inspecting brass for case head separation, primer pocket loosening, neck splits, etc.
4. Using appropriate eye and ear protection.
5. Following all local, state, and federal laws regarding firearms, ammunition, and handloading.

BrassTracker stores notes and records. It does not make handloading decisions for you.

Eligibility

BrassTracker is intended for users 17 years of age or older. By using the app, you represent that you are of legal age in your jurisdiction to possess firearms and reloading components, and that doing so is lawful where you live.

License

BrassTracker grants you a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable license to install and use the app on devices you own or control, in accordance with these Terms and Apple's standard EULA. You may not:

• Reverse-engineer, decompile, or disassemble the app (except to the extent expressly permitted by law).
• Resell, redistribute, or sublicense the app.
• Use the app to facilitate the unlawful sale, distribution, or transfer of firearms or ammunition (the app is a logbook, not a marketplace).

Purchases

BrassTracker has two purchase paths, both processed by Apple's StoreKit and subject to Apple's App Store Terms:

• Base app: $2.99 one-time purchase. Every feature in the base app is unlocked the moment you buy it. The base purchase is yours to keep. It is not a subscription and does not auto-renew. iCloud sync, recipe sharing, brass tracking, group logging, chronograph imports, and cost-per-round are part of the base app and will never be moved behind a paywall.
• BrassTracker Pro: optional upgrade. Pro is an optional in-app purchase that unlocks advanced features (the ballistics solver, PDF range card export, Garmin Xero ShotView CSV import, advanced chrono analytics, and annealing tracking). Pro is offered as an auto-renewing annual subscription at $19.99 / year (with a 7-day Apple introductory free trial for new subscribers) or as a one-time $49.99 non-consumable lifetime purchase. There is no monthly tier. Auto-renewing subscriptions renew automatically until cancelled in your Apple ID Subscriptions settings; you can cancel at any time and Pro remains active through the end of the current billing period. The base $2.99 app remains fully usable without Pro.

Refunds are handled by Apple per their standard policies. BrassTracker does not directly issue refunds; please contact Apple.

Restore Purchases

A Restore Purchases button is provided for compliance with Apple's Guideline 3.1.1. In v1.0 the app is paid-up-front, so the typical result is “nothing to restore”: your purchase is already active on any device signed in with the same Apple ID.

Acceptable use

You agree not to use BrassTracker to:

• Violate any law (including export controls or firearms regulations).
• Store or transmit data unrelated to your own personal handloading practice.
• Use the app on behalf of another person or entity without their consent.

Third-party data

BrassTracker ships with reference catalogs of common cartridges, bullets, powders, and primers. These catalogs are provided for convenience only. Always consult the manufacturer's published load data and your firearm's manual for authoritative information. BrassTracker does not endorse or recommend any specific load.

Disclaimer of warranties

THE APP IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE," WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, OR NON-INFRINGEMENT.

WE DO NOT WARRANT THAT THE APP WILL BE ERROR-FREE, UNINTERRUPTED, OR SUITABLE FOR ANY HANDLOADING DECISION.

Limitation of liability

TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, BRASSTRACK AND ITS DEVELOPERS SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR ANY LOSS OF PROFITS, DATA, OR OTHER INTANGIBLE LOSSES, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO YOUR USE OF (OR INABILITY TO USE) THE APP.

OUR TOTAL LIABILITY FOR ANY CLAIM ARISING FROM THESE TERMS OR THE APP SHALL NOT EXCEED THE AMOUNT YOU PAID FOR THE APP IN THE TWELVE (12) MONTHS PRECEDING THE CLAIM.

Indemnification

You agree to indemnify and hold harmless BrassTracker and its developers from any claims, damages, or expenses arising out of (a) your use of the app, (b) your handloading decisions or practices, (c) your violation of these Terms, or (d) your violation of any law.

Termination

You may stop using the app at any time by deleting it. The app may be discontinued, in whole or in part, with reasonable notice through an App Store update.

Governing law

These Terms are governed by the laws of the United States and the State of Alaska, without regard to conflict-of-laws principles.

Changes to These Terms

If these Terms are updated, the effective date will bump and a notice will surface in-app on next launch. Continued use after a material update means you accept the revised Terms.
