Terms of Service

Last updated: July 30, 2026 · Version 2026-07-30 · Effective immediately for new accounts

These Terms of Service (the “Terms”) are a binding agreement between you and the operator of Stove Pals (“Stove Pals,” “we,” “us,” or “our”). They govern your access to and use of the Stove Pals website at stovepals.com, the installable web app, and all related features and services (together, the “Service”).

By creating an account, clicking to accept these Terms, or otherwise using the Service, you agree to these Terms and to our Privacy Policy, which is incorporated into these Terms by reference. If you do not agree, do not use the Service.

Please read Section 21 (Disclaimer of Warranties), Section 22 (Limitation of Liability), Section 23 (Indemnification), and Section 25 (Dispute Resolution) carefully. They limit our liability to you, place obligations on you, and affect how any dispute between us is resolved, including a waiver of class actions and of trial by jury.

1. Who we are

The Service is operated by [ADD BEFORE LAUNCH: full legal name of the operating entity or individual, and state of formation], located in Minnesota, United States. Throughout these Terms that operator is referred to as “Stove Pals,” “we,” “us,” or “our.”

You can reach us at jrhq.net@gmail.com or by mail at [ADD BEFORE LAUNCH: postal address for legal notices].

2. Eligibility and age requirements

You must be at least 13 years old to create a Stove Pals account. If you are between 13 and the age of majority where you live (usually 18), you may use the Service only with the involvement and consent of a parent or legal guardian, who agrees to be bound by these Terms on your behalf.

If you are in the European Economic Area or the United Kingdom, you must be at least 16 years old, or the minimum age of digital consent in your country if that country has set a lower age, whichever applies to you.

The Service is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly permit them to register. If you are a parent or guardian and believe a child under 13 has created an account or been added to a family, contact us at jrhq.net@gmail.com and we will delete the account and its data.

Family accounts. If you create a family and invite others, you represent that every person you invite meets the age requirements above, and that you have authority to accept these Terms on behalf of any household member under the age of majority whom you add.

You also represent that you are not barred from using the Service under the laws of the United States or any other applicable jurisdiction, and that you are not located in a country subject to a comprehensive United States embargo or listed on any United States government restricted-party list.

3. Your account

You are responsible for the accuracy of the information you give us, for keeping your password and account credentials confidential, and for all activity that occurs under your account. Do not share your credentials. Notify us promptly at jrhq.net@gmail.com if you believe your account has been accessed without your permission.

We are not liable for any loss arising from someone else using your account, whether or not you authorised it, except to the extent the loss was caused by our own failure to meet a legal obligation we owe you.

One person, one account. Do not create an account on behalf of anyone else without their permission, and do not sell, transfer, or assign your account to another person.

4. The Service and changes to it

Stove Pals lets you build a recipe library, plan meals on a calendar, generate shopping lists, track nutrition against goals you set, plan events, cook with step-by-step guidance, and share any of that with a household or family group. Some features use artificial intelligence — see Section 14.

We are actively developing the Service. We may add, change, suspend, or remove any feature at any time, and we may impose or change usage limits (for example, on AI requests, uploads, or storage) to keep the Service stable and affordable to run. Where a change materially and adversely affects a feature you actively rely on, we will make a reasonable effort to give you advance notice, in the app or by email.

Beta and experimental features. Features we label as beta, experimental, preview, or similar are provided for evaluation, may be unstable or change without notice, and may be withdrawn entirely. They are provided strictly as-is, without any warranty whatsoever.

5. Free access, fees, and paid plans

Stove Pals is currently offered free of charge, with no advertising displayed in the app.

We may introduce paid plans and paid features in the future. If we do, we intend to continue offering a free tier, although the features and usage limits included in the free tier may change, and some capabilities that are free today may in future require a paid plan. We will give you at least 30 days’ notice, by email or a prominent in-app notice, before any change that materially reduces the functionality available to you at no cost. Nothing in these Terms obliges us to keep any specific feature free, or to offer the Service free of charge indefinitely.

If and when paid plans are introduced, they may be offered as recurring subscriptions, as one-time purchases, or both. Sections 6 and 7 govern those purchases. Until you actually choose to buy something, no payment obligation arises under these Terms.

All prices will be stated in United States dollars unless we say otherwise, and are exclusive of taxes. You are responsible for any sales, use, VAT, GST, or similar taxes, other than taxes based on our income.

6. Billing, renewals, and cancellation

This section applies only if and when you purchase a paid plan.

6.1 Authorisation

When you buy a subscription or a one-time purchase, you authorise us and our payment processor to charge the payment method you provide for the price shown at checkout, plus applicable taxes. You represent that you are authorised to use that payment method. We do not receive or store your full card number; payments are handled by a third-party payment processor under its own terms and privacy policy.

6.2 Automatic renewal

Subscriptions renew automatically. Unless you cancel before the end of the then-current billing period, your subscription will renew for another period of the same length, and your payment method will be charged the then-current renewal price automatically. Before you subscribe we will clearly disclose the renewal frequency, the renewal price, and how to cancel, and we will send you an email confirmation of those terms after you subscribe. For annual subscriptions we will send a renewal reminder before we charge you.

6.3 Cancelling

You may cancel a subscription at any time from your Account page, in the same number of steps it took to subscribe and without having to speak to anyone. Cancellation takes effect at the end of the billing period you have already paid for; you keep access until then. You may also cancel by emailing jrhq.net@gmail.com, and we will process the request promptly.

6.4 Price changes

We may change subscription prices. Any price change applies from your next renewal, and we will give you at least 30 days’ notice by email before it takes effect, along with instructions for cancelling. Continuing your subscription past the effective date means you accept the new price.

6.5 Failed payments

If a charge fails, we may retry it and may suspend paid features until payment succeeds. If payment remains unresolved, we may downgrade your account to the free tier. We will not delete your recipes or plans because of a failed payment, though features exclusive to a paid plan may become unavailable.

7. Refunds

Except where a refund is required by law, payments are non-refundable and there are no refunds or credits for partially used billing periods, unused features, or periods during which your account remained open but you did not use it.

We will honour refund rights that apply to you by law. In particular, if you are a consumer in the European Union or the United Kingdom, you generally have a 14-day right to withdraw from a purchase of digital services; that right may end early once performance begins with your express consent and acknowledgement. Residents of some jurisdictions have additional statutory refund rights, which these Terms do not override.

Beyond that, we may issue a refund at our discretion — for example, an accidental duplicate charge or a renewal you clearly did not intend. Ask us at jrhq.net@gmail.com.

8. Your content and the licence you grant

“Your Content” means everything you add to the Service: recipes, meal plans, calendars, shopping lists, fridge contents, nutrition goals and logs, notes, ratings, comments, event details, display name, profile photo, and any photos, PDFs, links, or text you upload or type in.

You keep ownership of Your Content. We do not claim any ownership of it.

To operate the Service, we need permission to handle it. You grant us a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free licence to host, store, copy, reproduce, transmit, adapt, reformat, and display Your Content, and to transmit it to the service providers listed in our Privacy Policy (for example, sending an uploaded photo to our AI provider so it can extract a recipe), solely for the purposes of:

• providing, maintaining, and improving the Service for you;
• sharing Your Content with the specific people you choose — your family group, event guests, or the public Discover feed if you publish to it;
• backing up, securing, and troubleshooting the Service; and
• complying with the law.

This licence lasts only as long as we host Your Content, and ends when you delete it or delete your account — except that (a) copies already shared with a family group, event, or the public Discover feed may persist as described in Sections 9 to 11, (b) residual copies may remain in routine backups for a limited period before being overwritten, and (c) we may retain content where the law requires it.

We do not use Your Content to train AI models, ours or anyone else’s.

You are responsible for Your Content. You represent that you own it or have all necessary rights to it, and that it does not infringe anyone else’s copyright, trademark, privacy, publicity, or other rights, and does not violate any law.

We do not pre-screen Your Content, and we are not obliged to monitor it. We may, however, review, refuse, remove, or restrict access to any content that we reasonably believe violates these Terms or the law, or that creates risk for us or our users.

9. Publishing to the Discover feed

Discover is a public feed. If you publish a recipe to it, you are making that content publicly available — including the recipe itself, any photo you attach, and the display name and profile photo shown alongside it. Anyone using Stove Pals, and in some cases anyone on the internet, may be able to view it, and other users may save a copy into their own library.

By publishing, you grant every other user of the Service a non-exclusive, royalty-free licence to view the recipe and save a copy of it for their own personal, non-commercial use within Stove Pals, and you grant us the licence in Section 8 for the purpose of operating and promoting the feed.

You may unpublish a recipe at any time, which removes it from the feed. However, copies other users already saved will remain in their own libraries, and we cannot retrieve them. Do not publish anything you may later need to fully retract.

Before you publish, review the recipe — whether or not AI helped create it. Other users have no way to know how a recipe was produced, and they may cook from it. Publishing AI-generated ingredient, allergen, or nutrition information that you have not checked yourself puts other people at risk and breaches these Terms.

Every published recipe carries a Report control. If you see content that infringes your rights, is unsafe, or breaks these Terms, please report it, or email us at jrhq.net@gmail.com. We review reports and may remove content or suspend accounts. Copyright complaints follow the process in Section 20.

10. Family accounts and shared libraries

A family group in Stove Pals is a shared workspace. When you create or join one, you should assume that other members can see the content shared into it, including the shared recipe library, the meal-plan calendar, shopping lists, fridge contents, events, cook assignments, and who ate what where those features are enabled.

Family administrators have elevated abilities. Depending on the feature, an administrator may invite and remove members, assign cooking duties, manage shared content, and restrict a member’s access to certain parts of the app. If you join someone else’s family, you are accepting that arrangement.

If you are removed from a family or leave it, you lose access to the family’s shared content. Content you personally contributed to a shared library may remain available to the remaining members, since they have relied on it. Content that is personal to you remains yours.

Nutrition tracking, where a family enables it, can reveal what individual members eat. Only share into a family group what you are comfortable other members seeing.

11. Events, invitations, and guests

You can create events and share them via a link. Anyone holding that link can view the event page and, where you allow it, sign up as a guest without creating an account.

If you create an event and share its link, you are the one deciding who sees it. Treat the link as semi-public: we cannot control who it is forwarded to. Do not put sensitive information such as a home address into an event unless you are comfortable with everyone who receives the link seeing it.

If you invite guests by email, you confirm that you have their permission to give us their email address for that purpose, and that you are not using our invitation feature to send unsolicited mail. We send invitation and reminder emails on your behalf and identify you as the sender.

Guests who sign up without an account provide a name, and optionally a dish and an email address for a reminder. That information is visible to the event organiser and other guests on the event page. Guests may later claim their signup by creating an account.

12. Importing recipes from other sources

Stove Pals can bring in a recipe from a link you paste, a photo you take of a recipe card or cookbook page, a PDF, or text you paste in. These tools exist so you can organise recipes you already have the right to use — the same way you might copy one into a notebook.

You are responsible for what you import. Recipes published on websites, in cookbooks, and in magazines are often protected by copyright, particularly the written instructions, headnotes, and photographs. A list of ingredients on its own generally is not, but the expression around it usually is. By importing content you represent that you have the right to do so for your own personal use.

Do not use import tools to reproduce another person’s copyrighted recipe writing at scale, to strip attribution, or to republish imported content to the public Discover feed as if it were your own. Doing so breaches these Terms and may infringe someone’s copyright. When you import from a link, we retain the source URL where we can, and we encourage you to keep the attribution.

We may limit, throttle, or disable import features, in general or for your account, if they are being used in a way that we reasonably believe is unlawful or abusive.

13. Acceptable use

You agree not to, and not to help or permit anyone else to:

• upload, publish, or transmit content that is unlawful, infringing, defamatory, obscene, sexually explicit, hateful, harassing, or that depicts or promotes violence or self-harm;
• upload photos of people without their consent, or any image that is not related to food, cooking, or the feature you are using;
• impersonate any person, or misrepresent your affiliation with any person or organisation;
• harass, threaten, spam, or send unsolicited messages to other users, including through invitations or event signups;
• access, tamper with, or use non-public areas of the Service, our systems, or our providers’ systems, or attempt to access another user’s account or data;
• probe, scan, or test the vulnerability of the Service, or breach or circumvent any security or authentication measure;
• scrape, crawl, harvest, or bulk-download content or data from the Service, including the Discover feed, by any automated means, or use the Service to build a competing dataset or train a machine-learning model;
• reverse-engineer, decompile, or disassemble any part of the Service, except to the extent that restriction is prohibited by law;
• use automated means to create accounts, or use the Service in a way that imposes an unreasonable load on our infrastructure, or that circumvents any rate limit or usage cap;
• use the Service for any commercial resale of its output, or to provide a service to third parties, without our written permission;
• use the AI features to generate content that is unlawful, or that is intended to deceive others about the safety, nutritional content, or allergen content of food; or
• use the Service in violation of any applicable law, regulation, or third party’s rights.

We may investigate suspected violations and take any action we consider appropriate, including removing content, limiting features, suspending or terminating accounts, and cooperating with law enforcement.

14. AI features and accuracy

Several parts of Stove Pals are powered by third-party artificial intelligence (currently Google’s Gemini API). These include:

• extracting a recipe from a photo of a recipe card or cookbook page;
• extracting a recipe from a PDF or a pasted link;
• estimating nutrition information for a recipe or ingredient;
• reading a nutrition label from a photo;
• writing a complete recipe from a short text description you type (“Describe a Meal”);
• inferring a likely recipe from a photo of a finished, plated dish (“Photo of a Dish”);
• identifying items from a photo of your fridge or pantry; and
• estimating grocery costs.

These features fall into two categories, and the difference matters. Extraction features read information that is already present in something you supplied, and can still misread it. Generation and inference features — writing a recipe from a description, guessing a recipe from a photo of a plated dish, estimating nutrition, estimating price — invent plausible content that was never in your input at all. Generated ingredients, quantities, cooking times, temperatures, calorie counts, and allergen information are guesses, and they are frequently wrong in ways that look entirely convincing.

You are solely responsible for reviewing AI-generated and AI-assisted content before acting on it. We do not warrant that any AI output is accurate, complete, current, safe, or fit for any purpose. AI output is not reviewed by a human, a nutritionist, a dietitian, a food scientist, or a food-safety professional before you see it.

AI output is generated probabilistically. Two people asking for the same thing may get different answers, and the same request may produce different results at different times. Output may unintentionally resemble existing published text; we make no representation that AI output is original or free of third-party rights, and you should apply your own judgment before publishing or distributing it.

Content you submit to an AI feature is sent to our AI provider for processing, as described in our Privacy Policy. Do not submit anything confidential, sensitive, or belonging to someone else. In particular, do not upload photos that contain other people, documents, screens, or anything else you would not want processed by a third-party service.

AI features depend on a third-party provider and on usage limits we set. They may be slow, unavailable, rate-limited, changed, or discontinued at any time.

15. Nutrition, allergens, and health information

Nutrition figures in Stove Pals — calories, protein, carbohydrates, fat, and any custom nutrients you define — are estimates. They are produced by AI, derived from generic ingredient data, or entered by you or by other users. They are not laboratory-verified, are not based on the specific brands and products in your kitchen, and do not account for how portioning, preparation, substitution, or cooking changes a dish. Real values will differ, sometimes substantially.

Allergen information, where shown or inferred, is incomplete and unreliable by nature. AI cannot detect cross-contamination, cannot know a manufacturer’s processing practices, cannot see hidden ingredients in a photo, and routinely misses allergens present in sauces, stocks, oils, coatings, and seasonings. Treat the absence of an allergen warning as meaningless.

Nutrition goals, targets, and tracking features in Stove Pals are general-purpose organisational tools. They are not clinical tools, they are not calibrated to you, and they do not constitute a diet plan, a treatment plan, or a recommendation. Do not use them to manage a medical condition. Consult a qualified professional before making significant changes to your diet, and especially before doing so for a child, an older adult, someone who is pregnant, or anyone with a health condition.

Stove Pals is not a medical device and is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease or condition.

In an emergency — a suspected allergic reaction, anaphylaxis, or suspected food poisoning — stop using the app and contact emergency services or a poison control centre immediately.

16. Food and cooking safety

Cooking times, temperatures, and doneness cues in Stove Pals — whether typed by you, imported from elsewhere, published by another user, or generated by AI — are indicative only. They are not calibrated to your oven, hob, air fryer, pressure cooker, altitude, cookware, or the actual size and starting temperature of your food.

You are responsible for safe food handling: verifying that meat, poultry, seafood, eggs, and leftovers reach safe internal temperatures using a food thermometer; avoiding cross-contamination; storing and reheating food safely; observing use-by dates; and discarding anything that may have spoiled. For authoritative guidance, consult your national food safety authority — in the United States, foodsafety.gov.

The fridge and pantry features track what you tell them. Stove Pals does not know whether an item is still safe to eat. Never rely on it to judge freshness or spoilage.

Supervise children in the kitchen. Do not let a person under the age of majority follow a recipe involving heat, sharp implements, or appliances without adult supervision.

17. Price and cost estimates

Grocery cost and price estimates are rough approximations generated by AI. They are not quotes, are not tied to any particular retailer, do not reflect your local prices, taxes, package sizes, promotions, or currency, and will often be wrong. Do not budget, purchase, or make financial decisions in reliance on them.

18. Data, backups, and loss

We take reasonable care with your data and rely on established infrastructure providers, but we do not guarantee that Your Content will never be lost, corrupted, or become temporarily unavailable.

Keep your own copies of anything you cannot afford to lose. Stove Pals offers export and print options; family recipes and other irreplaceable content should also exist somewhere outside this Service. To the maximum extent permitted by law, we are not liable for lost, deleted, or corrupted content.

Deletion is generally permanent. When you or a family administrator delete content, or when you delete your account, we cannot usually recover it.

19. Third-party services and links

The Service depends on third-party providers, including Google Firebase (authentication, database, file storage), Google’s Gemini API (AI processing), Google Analytics and the Meta Pixel (measurement), Google Fonts and Cloudflare’s CDN (assets), Railway (hosting), and the Gmail API (email delivery). Our Privacy Policy and Cookie Policy describe what each one receives.

Your use of the Service is also subject to those providers’ terms where they apply to you. We do not control them, are not responsible for their acts or omissions, and are not liable for outages, changes, errors, or data incidents originating with them.

The Service may contain links to third-party websites, including source URLs for imported recipes. We do not endorse, control, or accept responsibility for those sites or their content, and visiting them is at your own risk.

20. Copyright complaints (DMCA)

We respect intellectual property rights and respond to notices of alleged copyright infringement under the Digital Millennium Copyright Act.

If you believe content on Stove Pals infringes your copyright, send a written notice to our designated agent containing all of the following:

1. a physical or electronic signature of the copyright owner, or a person authorised to act on their behalf;
2. identification of the copyrighted work claimed to have been infringed;
3. identification of the material claimed to be infringing, with enough detail for us to locate it (a direct URL is best);
4. your name, address, telephone number, and email address;
5. a statement that you have a good-faith belief that the use is not authorised by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law; and
6. a statement, made under penalty of perjury, that the information in the notice is accurate and that you are the copyright owner or authorised to act on the owner’s behalf.

Designated agent for copyright notices:

[ADD BEFORE LAUNCH: agent name, mailing address, telephone number, and email address — and register the same agent with the U.S. Copyright Office DMCA Designated Agent Directory]
Email in the interim: jrhq.net@gmail.com (subject line: “DMCA Notice”)

We will remove or disable access to material that is the subject of a valid notice, and will notify the user who posted it. If you believe your content was removed in error, you may send a counter-notice containing the elements required by 17 U.S.C. § 512(g)(3), including your consent to the jurisdiction of the federal court for your district (or, if outside the United States, the District of Minnesota).

Repeat infringers. We will terminate, in appropriate circumstances, the accounts of users who repeatedly infringe copyright.

Knowingly making a material misrepresentation in a notice or counter-notice can expose you to liability for damages under 17 U.S.C. § 512(f).

21. Disclaimer of warranties

Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion of certain warranties. In those places, the exclusions above apply only to the maximum extent permitted, and you may have rights that these Terms cannot take away. Nothing in these Terms limits your rights under mandatory consumer protection law.

22. Limitation of liability

Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits our liability for death or personal injury caused by our negligence, for fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation, or for any other liability that cannot lawfully be excluded or limited. Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages; in those places, the above applies only to the extent permitted, and your statutory rights are unaffected.

23. Indemnification

To the maximum extent permitted by law, you agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Stove Pals and its operator, owners, employees, and contractors from and against any claims, demands, actions, liabilities, damages, losses, and expenses (including reasonable legal fees) arising out of or relating to: (a) Your Content, including anything you publish to the Discover feed or share into a family or event; (b) your use or misuse of the Service; (c) your breach of these Terms or of any applicable law; (d) your infringement or violation of any third party’s rights, including intellectual property and privacy rights; or (e) any food you prepare, serve, or share using the Service, and any illness, allergic reaction, or injury suffered by anyone who consumes it.

We reserve the right to assume the exclusive defence and control of any matter otherwise subject to indemnification by you, at your expense, and you agree to cooperate with our defence. You will not settle any matter that imposes an obligation on us without our prior written consent.

24. Governing law and venue

These Terms and any dispute arising out of or relating to them or to the Service are governed by the laws of the State of Minnesota, United States, without regard to its conflict-of-law rules. The United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods does not apply.

Subject to Section 25, you and we agree that the state and federal courts located in Hennepin County, Minnesota have exclusive jurisdiction over any dispute, and each of us consents to personal jurisdiction and venue there.

If you are a consumer resident in the European Union, the United Kingdom, or another jurisdiction whose law gives you the right to bring proceedings in your local courts and to the protection of your local mandatory consumer law, this section does not deprive you of those rights.

25. Dispute resolution

25.1 Talk to us first

Most problems can be sorted out quickly. Before filing any claim, you agree to contact us at jrhq.net@gmail.com with a brief written description of the dispute and the relief you are seeking, and to give us 60 days to try to resolve it informally. We will do the same before bringing any claim against you. This step is a condition precedent to filing suit.

25.2 Small claims

Either of us may bring an individual claim in a small-claims court that has jurisdiction, instead of going to the courts named in Section 24.

25.3 Class action waiver

25.4 Jury trial waiver

25.5 Time limit on claims

To the maximum extent permitted by law, any claim arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Service must be filed within one year after the claim arose, or it is permanently barred.

25.6 If part of this section is unenforceable

If the class action waiver in Section 25.3 is found unenforceable as to a particular claim or request for relief, that claim or request will be severed and heard in court, and the remainder of this Section 25 will continue to apply to all other claims. If you are a consumer in a jurisdiction where any waiver in this section is not permitted, that waiver does not apply to you.

26. Our intellectual property

The Service itself — its software, design, layout, graphics, logos, icons, illustrations, text, and the “Stove Pals” name and branding — belongs to us or our licensors and is protected by copyright, trademark, and other laws. Content in the starter recipe packs and other material we supply is licensed to you for personal, non-commercial use within the Service.

Subject to these Terms, we grant you a limited, personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable licence to access and use the Service for your own personal, non-commercial household purposes. All rights not expressly granted are reserved. You may not copy, modify, distribute, sell, lease, or create derivative works from any part of the Service, or use our name or branding without our written permission.

27. Feedback

If you send us suggestions, ideas, bug reports, or other feedback, you grant us an unrestricted, perpetual, irrevocable, worldwide, royalty-free right to use it for any purpose, without any obligation of confidentiality, attribution, or compensation. Please do not send us anything you consider confidential or proprietary.

28. Suspension and termination

By you. You may stop using the Service at any time, and you may request deletion of your account and data from the Account page or by emailing jrhq.net@gmail.com. See our Privacy Policy for what happens to your data.

By us. We may suspend or terminate your access, immediately and without notice, if we reasonably believe you have breached these Terms or the law, if your use creates risk or legal exposure for us or other users, or if your account has been inactive for an extended period. We may also discontinue the Service in whole or in part; if we discontinue it entirely, we will give you reasonable advance notice and a chance to export your content where practicable.

On termination, your licence to use the Service ends immediately. Sections 8 (as to content already shared), 9, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, and 30 survive termination, along with any other provision that by its nature should survive.

29. Changes to these Terms

We may update these Terms. When we do, we will revise the “Last updated” date and version above. If a change is material — for example, one that reduces your rights, introduces fees for something that was free, or changes how disputes are resolved — we will give you at least 30 days’ advance notice by email or a prominent in-app notice before it takes effect.

Continuing to use the Service after the effective date of a change means you accept the updated Terms. If you do not accept them, stop using the Service and delete your account before the effective date. Changes do not apply retroactively to any dispute that arose before their effective date.

30. General terms

Entire agreement. These Terms, together with the Privacy Policy, the Cookie Policy, and the Disclaimers, are the entire agreement between you and us about the Service, and supersede any prior agreements or understandings on that subject.

Severability. If any provision is held unenforceable, it will be modified to the minimum extent necessary to make it enforceable, or severed if it cannot be, and the remaining provisions stay in full force.

No waiver. Our failure to enforce any provision is not a waiver of our right to enforce it later. A waiver is effective only if in writing from us.

Assignment. You may not assign or transfer these Terms or your account without our written consent. We may assign these Terms, in whole or in part, to an affiliate or in connection with a merger, acquisition, reorganisation, or sale of assets, on notice to you.

No third-party beneficiaries. These Terms do not create any rights in favour of anyone other than you and us.

Force majeure. Neither of us is liable for a failure or delay caused by events beyond reasonable control, including outages at infrastructure or AI providers, network failures, natural disasters, labour disputes, war, or government action.

Independent parties. Nothing in these Terms creates a partnership, joint venture, employment, agency, or franchise relationship between you and us.

Notices. We may give you notice by email to the address on your account, or by a prominent notice in the Service. Legal notices to us must be sent to jrhq.net@gmail.com and to the postal address in Section 1.

Headings and language. Headings are for convenience only and do not affect interpretation. These Terms are drafted in English; if we provide a translation and there is a conflict, the English version governs to the extent permitted by law.

Export and sanctions. You may not use or export the Service in violation of United States export control or sanctions laws.

U.S. government users. The Service is “commercial computer software” provided with restricted rights under FAR 12.212 and DFARS 227.7202.
