General Terms of Change
PENA reserves the right, fully and at any time, to change, add, delete, or update all or part of the terms and conditions of use of the application, including but not limited to:
- Terms of Service
- Privacy Policy
- User Agreement

Changes to the conditions are made to adapt to:
- Developments in security and encryption technology
- Improved app features
- Changes in applicable regulations or laws
- Operational needs and user protection
The User understands and agrees that PENA is an application with an architecture without a central server, without identity, and without data storage, so the change in terms is not related to the management of the user's personal data.
Mechanism for Implementing Changes
Any changes to the terms will take effect from:
- Published in the PENA application, or
- Published through the official PENA channel
PENA is under no obligation to provide individual notices to each user, remembering:
- Absence of user identity data
- No email, phone number, or centralized account
By continuing to use the PENA application after the changes take effect, users are considered:
- Have read
- Understanding
- Agree to all changes to the terms
User's Right to Change of Terms
If the user does not agree to part or all of the changes to the terms, the user has the right to:
- Stop using apps
- Remove an app from your device
- Permanently delete all data
Because PENA does not store data on servers and does not have a data recovery mechanism, users understand that:
- Data deletion is final and irreversible
- There is no obligation of PENA to store or return any data
Feature & Security Changes
PENA may make changes or updates related to:
- Encryption system, including AES-320 Polymorphic Encryption
- Post-quantum security mechanisms
- Anti-malware and file scanning system
- P2P network architecture
These changes may include:
- Added security features
- Restriction or removal of certain features
- Changes to the Basic and Premium service schemes
Users understand that security changes are made to enhance protection, and not to weaken user privacy or anonymity.
Limitation of Liability for Change
PENA is not responsible for:
- Discomfort due to feature changes
- Loss of access to certain features
- Changes in the application usage mechanism
PENA cannot be held liable for direct or indirect losses arising from changes in conditions, as long as such changes are made reasonably and in the interests of security, law, or operation.
Applicability of Terms
If one or more provisions in the Amendment section of these Terms are held to be invalid by law, the remaining provisions shall remain valid and binding.
This section is an integral part of the Terms of Service and other PENA legal documents.
Continued use means that you agree to the updated Terms.
13. Applicable Law & Dispute Resolution
Disputes will be resolved in accordance with the legal jurisdiction chosen by the PENA manager. If an informal settlement fails, arbitration or legal proceedings may be conducted in accordance with the applicable rules.
Governing Law
These Applicable Legal Terms & Dispute Resolution govern the entire legal relationship between users and the PENA application, including but not limited to the use of the service, security features, encryption systems, real peer-to-peer (P2P) networks, anti-malware, and all policies and agreements attached to the application.
By using the PENA application, the user consciously and voluntarily agrees that the legal relationship that arises is governed and interpreted based on the applicable law in the jurisdiction where the developer of the PENA application is registered, regardless of the conflict of laws.
The user understands that PENA is an application:
- No central server
- No cloud storage
- No collection of personal identity
- Based on direct connections between users (P2P)
Therefore, PENA does not play the role of a content organizer, communication intermediary, or party that stores user data.
All legal responsibility for the content of communications, messages, files, or other activities carried out through the application rests solely with the user. PENA does not have the technical capability or access to:
- Read the content of the message
- Change the content of a communication
- Store or restore user data
Users acknowledge that PENA's security system uses AES-320 F (Post-Quantum) Encryption, end-to-end encryption, as well as other advanced security mechanisms.
However, no digital system can guarantee absolute security, so PENA cannot be held liable for losses incurred as a result of:
- Misuse of the user's device
- User negligence in maintaining device access
- Third-party attacks beyond PENA's reasonable control
Limitation of Legal Liability
PENA is provided on an "as is" and "as available" basis without warranties of any kind, either express or implied.
PENA is not responsible for:
- Data loss due to manual or automatic deletion
- Data loss due to wipe code or auto-delete feature
- Direct or indirect losses arising from the use of the application
Since PENA does not store data and does not have a central server, users hereby agree that there is no data recovery mechanism under any circumstances.
Dispute Resolution
Deliberation & Peaceful Settlement
Any disputes, differences of opinion, or disputes arising from the use of the PENA application will be sought first to be resolved through deliberation and good faith between the parties.
No Class Action
The User hereby agrees that each dispute is resolved individually, and the User waives the right to file a class action.
Limitations of PENA's Role
Considering the nature of PENA as a P2P communication platform without a central server:
- PENA cannot be asked to hand over communication data
- PENA cannot be a witness to the content of the conversation
- PENA does not have the technical authority to intervene in user communications
Legal Forum
If a peaceful settlement is not reached, the dispute will be resolved through the competent legal forum in accordance with applicable law, taking into account the limitations of PENA's liability as stipulated in this provision.
Release of Additional Liability
The User hereby releases PENA from all legal claims arising out of:
- Abuse of the app by other users
- Illegal content sent between users
- Losses due to the user's own fault
Applicability & Changes to Terms
PENA reserves the right to change, update, or adjust the provisions of this Applicable Law & Dispute Resolution at any time.
Changes will take effect from the moment they are published in the application or official PENA platform.
By continuing to use the application after the changes are made, the user is considered to have agreed to all the updated terms.
