Terms of Service

1. Welcome to PomoPeople

PomoPeople is a gentle productivity app by The Gentle Doer LLC. These Terms of Service (“Terms”) govern your use of our website, apps, and services (collectively, the “Service”). By using the Service, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, please do not use the Service.

2. Accounts & eligibility

You must be at least 13 years old to use PomoPeople. You are responsible for keeping your account credentials secure. Do not share your login information. You are responsible for all activity that occurs under your account.

3. Subscriptions & payments

PomoPeople offers a free trial and paid subscription plans. All payments are processed by Stripe. By subscribing, you agree to pay the fees associated with your chosen plan.

• Subscriptions automatically renew unless cancelled before the renewal date.
• You can cancel anytime from your billing page. Cancellations take effect at the end of the current billing period.
• We do not offer prorated refunds for partial months, except where required by law.
• We may change pricing with advance notice. Continued use after a price change constitutes acceptance.

4. Free trial

New users may receive a free trial. At the end of the trial, you will lose access to this product unless you provide valid, approved payment and begin your subscription. You will be charged the day your subscription renews, unless you cancel beforehand. If you cancel during the trial, you retain access until the trial ends.

5. Acceptable use

You agree not to:

• Use the Service for any illegal purpose or to violate any laws.
• Harass, abuse, or harm other users.
• Attempt to gain unauthorized access to the Service or its systems.
• Interfere with the proper working of the Service (e.g., DDoS attacks, scraping).
• Upload viruses, malware, or other harmful code.
• Resell, redistribute, or commercially exploit the Service without our written permission.

We reserve the right to suspend or terminate accounts that violate these rules.

6. Intellectual property

The Gentle Doer LLC owns all rights to the PomoPeople name, logo, code, designs, pixel art, and other original content. You retain ownership of any content you create in the app (task descriptions, mood notes, etc.). We do not claim ownership of your personal data or creative work.

We grant you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable license to use the Service for personal productivity purposes.

7. Disclaimers

PomoPeople is provided “as is” and “as available” without warranties of any kind, either express or implied. We do not guarantee that the Service will always be available, error-free, or secure. The Service is a productivity tool, not a medical or therapeutic service. It is not a substitute for professional mental health care.

8. Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, The Gentle Doer LLC and its team will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages arising out of or relating to your use of the Service. Our total liability for any claim will not exceed the amount you paid us in the 12 months preceding the claim, or $50 if you did not pay.

9. Termination

You may stop using the Service and delete your account at any time. We may suspend or terminate your access if you violate these Terms or if we discontinue the Service. Upon termination, your right to use the Service ends immediately. Certain provisions (liability, intellectual property, etc.) survive termination.

10. Governing law

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Delaware, USA, without regard to conflict of law principles. Any disputes will be resolved in the courts of Delaware.

11. Changes to these terms

We may update these Terms as the Service evolves. If we make material changes, we will notify you via email or an in-app notice. Continued use after changes means you accept the updated Terms.
