Terms of Service

English is the sole authoritative version of these terms. Any translation is provided for convenience only; if a translation conflicts with this text, this text prevails.

1. Purpose

These terms govern your use of Seed (“the Service”), a habit-tracking application provided by AshStart Inc., a corporation incorporated in Ontario, Canada (“we”, “us”), and set out the rights and obligations of both sides. By using the Service you agree to them.

2. Definitions

1. Service — the application that lets you register habits, record whether you did them, and see the accumulation over time.
2. User — anyone using the Service under these terms, including without a linked account.
3. Records — habits, logs, notes, photos, and any other content you enter or attach.
4. Floor — the minimum amount you set for yourself. It is the Service’s only measure of success.

3. Posting and changing these terms

1. We post these terms in the app or on a page we designate.
2. We may change them within the limits of applicable law. Changes are posted at least 7 days before they take effect — 30 days if they are unfavourable to you.
3. If you do not accept a change, you may stop using the Service and delete your account.

4. Accounts

1. You can start without signing up. Doing so creates an anonymous account tied to your device.
2. An anonymous account cannot be recovered if you delete the app or lose the device. Link an account if you want your records to persist. We are not liable for data lost this way.
3. You are responsible for your sign-in credentials and may not let others use your account.

5. Ownership of your records

1. You own your records, including any copyright in them.
2. We process them only as needed to provide the Service (storage, display, sync). We take no licence to use your records for advertising, promotion, or derivative works.
3. The Service has no feature that publishes your records to other users or elsewhere.

6. Prohibited conduct

You must not:

1. use another person’s account without permission;
2. exploit vulnerabilities or place abnormal load on the Service by automated means;
3. store content that is unlawful or infringes the rights of others;
4. reverse-engineer, copy, or redistribute the Service without permission.

7. Health disclaimer

Seed is not a medical device, and nothing in the Service is medical diagnosis, treatment, prescription, or professional advice. This applies equally to habits relating to exercise, diet, sleep, smoking, or alcohol: what you do, and how hard you push, is your decision and your responsibility. Consult a qualified professional if you have any health concern.

8. Changes to and suspension of the Service

1. We may change the Service or discontinue parts of it.
2. If we shut the Service down entirely, we will give at least 30 days’ notice and explain how to export your records.
3. We may act without prior notice in the case of temporary interruptions caused by force majeure, power or network failure, or an outage at a third-party provider (such as Google Firebase).

9. Termination

1. You may terminate at any time using Delete account and data in the app.
2. On termination your personal data and records are destroyed in accordance with the Privacy Policy and cannot be recovered.
3. If you breach section 6 we may restrict your use after notifying you — or, in urgent cases, notify you afterwards.

10. Fees

The Service is currently free. If we introduce paid features, we will announce their scope, price, and payment and refund terms in advance and reflect them here. We will not move an already-free feature behind a paywall.

11. Disclaimer and limitation of liability

1. The Service is provided “as is” and “as available”. To the fullest extent permitted by law we disclaim all warranties, express or implied, including merchantability and fitness for a particular purpose.
2. We do not guarantee any outcome you may hope for, including forming a habit.
3. We are not liable for data lost through your own actions (deleting the app, not linking an account, losing the device).
4. To the fullest extent permitted by law, our total liability arising out of the Service is limited to the greater of the amount you paid us in the twelve months before the claim, or CAD $50.
5. Nothing in these terms excludes or limits liability that cannot be excluded or limited by law, including under Ontario consumer protection legislation. If you are a consumer, you keep every right that legislation gives you.

12. Governing law and jurisdiction

These terms are governed by the laws of the Province of Ontario and the federal laws of Canada applicable in it, without regard to conflict-of-laws rules. You and we submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of Ontario, sitting in Toronto, except that either party may seek injunctive relief in any court of competent jurisdiction. If you are a consumer resident elsewhere, this does not deprive you of the protection of mandatory rules of your place of residence.
