Terms

Effective October 13, 2026

Agreement

Inkblotter (“the app”) is published by The Peninsular Company, LLC, a Michigan limited liability company based in Detroit (“we,” “our,” or “us”). These terms are an agreement between you and The Peninsular Company, LLC. By downloading, installing or using the app, you agree to them. If you do not agree, please do not use the app.

These terms cover the app. The Peninsular Company’s terms cover this website.

A parlor game

Inkblotter is entertainment. Its readings, its scoring sheet and its notes on the ten plates of 1921 are there to amuse and to tell a piece of history.

• Nothing in the app is a psychological assessment, a diagnosis or professional advice of any kind. Do not rely on it to make decisions about your health or your life.
• Readings are written on your device: by Apple’s on-device model where Apple Intelligence is available, and from text built into the app elsewhere. They may be inaccurate, unexpected or beside the point.
• Inkblotter is inspired by Hermann Rorschach’s 1921 inkblot test. It is not that test, and it is not affiliated with the test or its publishers.
• If you are in distress, please reach a qualified professional or your local emergency services. In the US you can call or text 988 at any time.

License

We grant you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to use the app for personal, non-commercial purposes on any Apple device that you own or control, subject to Apple’s App Store terms.

This license does not allow you to:

• Copy, modify or distribute the app
• Reverse engineer, decompile or disassemble the app
• Sublicense, rent or lease the app to anyone else
• Use the app for any unlawful purpose

You are welcome to keep and share the blots you make and their reading cards.

Purchase

Inkblotter is paid for once. It has no in-app purchases, subscriptions or advertising.

• Apple processes the purchase through the App Store, under Apple’s terms and pricing.
• Refund requests go to Apple, at reportaproblem.apple.com, because we do not process payments ourselves.

Intellectual property

The app, including its design, text, readings, illustrations and code, is owned by The Peninsular Company, LLC or its licensors and is protected by copyright and other intellectual property laws.

The ten inkblots Hermann Rorschach published in 1921 are in the public domain. Our presentation of them, and the notes beside them, are original work.

Third-party services

Inkblotter uses no third-party services of its own. It relies on Apple’s: the App Store and, where it is available, Apple Intelligence on your device. Your use of those is governed by Apple’s terms and privacy policy.

Disclaimer of warranties

The app is provided “as is” and “as available” without warranties of any kind, either express or implied. We do not warrant that the app will be uninterrupted, error-free, or free of harmful components.

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, we disclaim all warranties, including implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement.

Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, The Peninsular Company, LLC and its developers shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages arising from 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 12 months preceding the claim.

Changes to these terms

We may update these terms at any time. Changes will appear on this page with a new effective date. Your continued use of the app after changes are posted constitutes acceptance of the revised terms.

Termination

Your license ends if you break these terms. You can end it yourself at any time by deleting the app.

Governing law

These terms are governed by the laws of the State of Michigan, without regard to its conflict of law rules. Any dispute arising from these terms or the app will be resolved in the state or federal courts located in the State of Michigan, and you and we agree to the personal jurisdiction of those courts. This section does not take away any rights you have under the consumer protection laws of the place where you live.

Apple

This agreement is between you and The Peninsular Company, LLC, not Apple Inc. Apple is not responsible for the app or its content. Apple has no obligation to furnish any maintenance or support services with respect to the app. In the event of any failure of the app to conform to any applicable warranty, you may notify Apple and Apple will refund the purchase price. Apple is a third-party beneficiary of these terms and may enforce them against you.
