Terms of Service
These Terms of Service (the “Terms”) are an agreement between you and ChoreCred (“ChoreCred,” “we,” “us”) covering your use of the ChoreCred app and the optional ChoreCred Plus subscription. By downloading, installing, or using the app — or by subscribing to ChoreCred Plus — you agree to these Terms. If you don’t agree, please don’t use the app. How we handle data is covered separately in our Privacy Policy, which is part of these Terms.
Who can use ChoreCred
ChoreCred is set up and managed by a parent or guardian. To agree to these Terms and run a household, you must be at least 18 years old (or the age of majority where you live) and able to enter a binding agreement. As the adult who sets up the app, you are responsible for the household you create and for supervising the children and family members you add to it.
What ChoreCred is
ChoreCred is a private family organizer that lets a household track chores, approve completed work, convert earned tokens into screen-time minutes, and keep a shared calendar, grocery list, and family notes. It is provided for personal, family, and household use — not for resale or commercial redistribution. We may add, change, or remove features over time.
ChoreCred Plus subscription
The ChoreCred app is free to download. Every new household automatically gets a 14-day trial of the full app — no purchase or subscription required — and when it ends, the app keeps working on a free tier limited to one kid profile and up to five active chores. ChoreCred Plus is an optional, auto-renewing subscription that removes those limits (unlimited kids and unlimited active chores). Paid access continues only while a subscription is active. Its terms are:
- Price and billing period: $6.99 per month or $59.99 per year, as shown in the app at the time of purchase. Prices may vary by region and are confirmed on the App Store purchase screen.
- Free introductory period: when offered, ChoreCred Plus starts with a 14-day free introductory period. If you don’t cancel before it ends, it converts to a paid subscription and your Apple Account is charged. This is separate from the app’s automatic 14-day household trial, which involves no purchase and never results in a charge.
- Auto-renewal: the subscription renews automatically at the end of each billing period unless you turn off auto-renew at least 24 hours before the current period ends. Your Apple Account is charged for renewal within 24 hours before the end of the current period.
- Payment: all purchases are processed by Apple and billed to the Apple Account you use with the App Store. We never receive or store your payment details.
- Managing and canceling: you can view, change, or cancel your subscription in your Apple Account settings (iOS Settings → your name → Subscriptions, or the App Store). Deleting the app does not cancel the subscription — you must cancel through Apple. See our Support page for step-by-step help.
- Refunds: because billing is handled by Apple, refunds are subject to Apple’s policies and are requested through Apple at reportaproblem.apple.com. Any unused portion of a free trial is forfeited when you buy a subscription.
- Price changes: if we change the subscription price, we’ll give you advance notice through Apple as required, and any increase takes effect only after you agree, in line with App Store rules.
Your data and content
The chores, approvals, token balances, calendar events, grocery items, and notes you and your family create belong to you. They live on your devices and, if you turn on the optional iCloud sync, in your family’s own iCloud — never on servers we run, because we don’t run any. You are responsible for the content your household enters and for keeping your own backups. Our handling of data is described in the Privacy Policy.
Acceptable use
When you use ChoreCred, you agree not to:
- copy, modify, reverse-engineer, decompile, or attempt to extract the source code of the app, except to the limited extent the law allows;
- resell, sublicense, rent, or redistribute the app or your access to it;
- use the app to break the law, infringe someone’s rights, or harm others; or
- interfere with the app’s intended operation or security.
Intellectual property and license
The ChoreCred app, name, logo, artwork, and design are owned by ChoreCred and protected by intellectual-property laws. Subject to these Terms, we grant you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to install and use the app on Apple devices you own or control, for your personal, family, and household use, in the manner permitted by the App Store’s Usage Rules. This license does not transfer any ownership to you.
App Store and Apple terms
You obtain ChoreCred through Apple’s App Store, and the following apply in addition to these Terms:
- These Terms are between you and ChoreCred only, not with Apple. ChoreCred, not Apple, is solely responsible for the app and its content.
- Your license to use the app is subject to the Usage Rules in Apple’s App Store Terms of Service. Where these Terms are less restrictive than, or conflict with, Apple’s Licensed Application End User License Agreement, Apple’s standard terms apply.
- ChoreCred is solely responsible for providing maintenance and support for the app; Apple has no obligation to furnish any maintenance or support services. Support questions should come to us at support@chorecred.app.
- To the extent required by law, if the app fails to conform to any applicable warranty, you may notify Apple, and Apple will refund the purchase price to you. Beyond that refund, Apple has no other warranty obligation for the app, and any other claims, losses, liabilities, damages, costs, or expenses attributable to a warranty nonconformity are ChoreCred’s sole responsibility.
- ChoreCred, not Apple, is responsible for addressing any claims relating to the app, including (a) product-liability claims; (b) any claim that the app fails to conform to any applicable legal or regulatory requirement, including consumer-protection legislation; and (c) claims arising under privacy or data-protection law. If a third party claims the app or your use of it infringes that party’s intellectual-property rights, ChoreCred — not Apple — is solely responsible for the investigation, defense, settlement, and discharge of that claim.
- You represent that you are not located in any region that is subject to a U.S. Government embargo or that has been designated by the U.S. Government as “terrorist-supporting,” and that you are not on any U.S. Government list of prohibited or restricted parties.
- You must comply with any applicable third-party terms of agreement when using the app — for example, your wireless carrier’s data-plan terms and Apple’s Media Services terms.
- Apple and its subsidiaries are third-party beneficiaries of these Terms and, upon your acceptance, may enforce them against you.
Disclaimers
ChoreCred is provided “as is” and “as available,” without warranties of any kind, whether express or implied, including implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement. We don’t warrant that the app will be uninterrupted, error-free, or that it will meet every expectation. Some jurisdictions don’t allow certain warranty exclusions, so parts of this section may not apply to you.
Limitation of liability
To the fullest extent permitted by law, ChoreCred will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or for lost data or lost opportunities, arising from your use of the app. To the extent liability cannot be excluded, it is limited to the amount you paid for ChoreCred Plus in the 12 months before the claim. Some jurisdictions don’t allow certain limitations, so parts of this section may not apply to you.
Changes to the app and these Terms
We may update the app and these Terms from time to time. If we make a material change to these Terms, we’ll update the effective date above and, where appropriate, note the change on this page. Your continued use of the app after a change takes effect means you accept the updated Terms.
Ending your use
You can stop using ChoreCred at any time by canceling any subscription through Apple and deleting the app. We may suspend or end your access if you materially breach these Terms or use the app in a way that could harm others or us. Sections that by their nature should survive — such as intellectual property, disclaimers, and limitation of liability — remain in effect after your use ends.
Governing law
These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Washington, United States, without regard to its conflict-of-laws principles, except where mandatory local consumer-protection law applies to you. Nothing here limits any non-waivable rights you have under the law where you live.
