Terms of use

1. Respos and these Terms

These Terms of Use (“Terms”) form an agreement between you and Liam Young, operating Respos (“Respos,” “we,” “us,” or “our”). By creating an account or using Respos, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use the service.

Respos is a household coordination service for shared tasks, supplies, expenses, calendars, personal tasks, reminders, and related information. Our Privacy Policy explains how we handle personal information.

The iOS app is also licensed under Apple’s Standard Licensed Application End User License Agreement . Mandatory platform terms control to the extent of a conflict. Apple is not a party to these service Terms.

2. Eligibility

You must be at least 13 years old to use Respos. If you are under the age of legal majority where you live, a parent or legal guardian must review and agree to these Terms for you. You may not use Respos if applicable law prohibits you from receiving the service.

3. Accounts

• Provide accurate information and keep your sign-in email, provider account, device, and sign-in links secure.
• Do not impersonate someone, use another person’s account, or create accounts to evade restrictions.
• You are responsible for your use of the account and for taking reasonable steps to prevent unauthorized access.
• Tell us promptly at respos.support@gmail.com if you suspect unauthorized use.

4. Households and shared information

A household is a shared space. A person with a valid invitation code may be able to join without a separate approval step, so protect invitation codes and only share them with people you trust. Members can see shared content and member display names. Private account profiles, including sign-in email addresses, are not made available to other members through profile access.

Household creators or authorized members may remove members, change assignments, or update shared content. If someone leaves or deletes an account, content, historical display names, account references, and reassigned items may remain available to the remaining household. You are responsible for deciding what to share; we cannot control copies or disclosures made by another member.

5. Your content

You retain ownership of content you submit. You give Respos a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free license to store, process, copy, display, and transmit it as needed to provide and maintain the service, secure it, and comply with law. This includes displaying shared content to the people you choose to share it with. The license continues for retained content only for those purposes and subject to our retention policy .

You must have the right to submit your content and share any information about other people. Do not submit unlawful content, infringe another person’s rights, or enter sensitive information that is unnecessary for household coordination.

6. Expenses and settlements

Expense splits, balances, and recorded settlements are organizational tools. Respos does not transfer money, collect debts, or verify that a payment has occurred. A “paid” or “settled” entry records information entered by members; it is not a payment receipt or confirmation from a bank.

Review calculations and resolve disagreements with the people involved. Respos is not a bank, payment processor, accountant, or financial adviser. Keep your own copies of records you need, especially because settled expenses and household history are subject to retention limits .

7. Premium subscriptions

Prices and payment

Respos Premium is an optional auto-renewing subscription. Available plans, billing periods, prices, and any trial or promotional terms are shown in the app before purchase. Payment is processed by the Apple App Store or Google Play through the store account you use. Store terms and applicable taxes apply.

Automatic renewal

Your subscription renews automatically unless you cancel through the store where you purchased it. For Apple purchases, your account is charged for renewal within 24 hours before the current period ends; cancel at least 24 hours before the end of that period to avoid renewal. For Google Play, cancel before the next renewal according to the date and terms shown by Google Play. Any price changes are handled with notice or consent as required by the store and applicable law.

Manage or cancel

Use Manage subscription in Respos where available, Apple subscription settings , or Google Play subscriptions . Cancellation generally stops future renewals while access continues through the paid period, subject to store terms and applicable law. Deleting the app or your Respos account does not cancel a subscription. You can request account deletion even if a subscription is still active.

Household access

Premium applies to the purchaser’s active Respos household, within the service’s limits. Other household members do not own or control that subscription. If the purchaser changes households, leaves, is removed, or deletes their account, the former household’s Premium access may end when its existing access expires. Respos household sharing is separate from Apple Family Sharing and Google family groups.

Restoring purchases and refunds

Use Restore purchases while signed into the relevant store account and the Respos account associated with the purchase. Account association and transfer rules may affect access. If a payment succeeds but Premium does not appear, use Restore purchases or Refresh status, or contact support before buying again.

For App Store refunds, use Apple’s refund service . For Google Play, follow Google Play’s refund process or contact us for help. Refund eligibility is governed by applicable law and the relevant store’s rules. Nothing here limits a refund or other remedy required by law.

8. Free tier and advertising

The Free plan includes core household tools with usage limits and third-party advertising. Premium increases certain limits and adds features such as household analytics and removal of in-app ads. Current limits are described in the app. Features and limits may change, subject to applicable notice, subscription, and consumer-protection requirements.

If Premium ends, some items beyond the Free limits may become locked in the app; this is separate from deletion. History and other records are subject to the retention limits described in our Privacy Policy . Advertising choices are available through the applicable app and device controls.

9. Acceptable use

You may not use Respos to:

• Harass, threaten, defraud, or unlawfully discriminate against anyone.
• Upload malware, disrupt the service, bypass access controls, or access another person’s data without authorization.
• Infringe privacy, intellectual-property rights, or applicable law.
• Scrape, reverse engineer, or copy the service except where law expressly permits it.
• Resell or commercially exploit the service without our written permission.

Report abusive content or a security concern to support . Include enough information to locate the issue without sending credentials or private sign-in links.

10. Third-party services

Respos uses services such as Apple, Google/Firebase, Google AdMob, RevenueCat, and hosting providers. Their own services are subject to their terms and privacy policies. Availability may depend on those providers, your device, and your internet connection. This does not limit our obligations under applicable law.

11. Intellectual property

Respos’s software, design, branding, and original content belong to Liam Young or the relevant licensors. Subject to these Terms, you have a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable right to use the service for your own household coordination. Your submitted content remains yours. No other intellectual-property rights are transferred to you.

12. Changes, availability, and termination

We may update the service or these Terms and may need to suspend or discontinue features. For material changes, we will provide notice when required, including subscription-related notice or remedies required by law or store rules. Updated terms will show a revised date. Where consent is required, we will seek it.

You can stop using Respos at any time and can delete your account or request deletion by email . We may suspend or end access for material violations, abuse, security risks, or legal requirements. Where reasonable and permitted, we will explain the action and provide an opportunity to address it. Contact support if you believe a decision was mistaken.

Account deletion and termination do not cancel store billing or necessarily erase all shared or retained records. Applicable ownership, retention, liability, and dispute provisions continue after use ends.

13. Disclaimers

To the extent permitted by law, Respos is provided “as is” and “as available.” We disclaim implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement. We do not guarantee uninterrupted service, timely delivery of every notification, or that household records and calculations are complete or error-free.

Do not rely on Respos as your only reminder for safety-critical or time-critical obligations, or as your only copy of important records. These disclaimers do not exclude statutory warranties or consumer rights that cannot lawfully be excluded.

14. Limitation of liability

To the extent permitted by law, Liam Young and Respos are not liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or lost profits, goodwill, or opportunities arising from use of the service.

To the extent permitted by law, our total liability for claims relating to Respos will not exceed the greater of the amount you paid for Respos in the 12 months before the event giving rise to the claim or US$50.

These limitations do not exclude liability for fraud, intentional misconduct, gross negligence, or any liability or remedy that cannot be limited under applicable law, including mandatory consumer rights. Some jurisdictions do not allow particular limitations, so they may not apply to you.

15. Governing law

California law governs these Terms, except where mandatory law where you live provides otherwise. Subject to your mandatory local rights, disputes may be brought in a California state or federal court with jurisdiction. Nothing in these Terms deprives you of non-waivable consumer protections or the right to bring a claim in a forum available to you under applicable law.

16. General terms

If a provision is unenforceable, the rest of these Terms remains effective. Failure to enforce a provision is not a waiver. You may not transfer your rights or obligations under these Terms without our consent, except where law permits it. We may transfer them as part of a reorganization or transfer of the service, subject to applicable law and without reducing your mandatory rights.

These Terms and the applicable app license form the agreement about use of Respos, subject to any rights that cannot be waived. Questions can be sent to the contact below.
