ONTIMR TERMS OF SERVICE

Effective Date: September 27, 2026
Version: 1.4.2

1. AGREEMENT

These Terms of Service (“Terms”) are a binding agreement between you and Signal Bench LLC, a Washington limited liability company (“Signal Bench,” “OnTimr,” “we,” “us,” or “our”). They govern your access to and use of the OnTimr mobile application, websites, APIs, family scheduling, location sharing, artificial-intelligence features, and related services (collectively, the “Service”).

By affirmatively accepting these Terms or using the Service after acceptance, you agree to them. If you do not agree, do not create an account or use the Service. Our Privacy Policy explains our data practices and is incorporated by reference as a notice, not as blanket consent to optional processing. Section 22 requires individual arbitration of disputes and waives class actions and jury trials, unless you opt out as described there.

If you accept for a business or another legal entity, you represent that you have authority to bind it. OnTimr is designed for personal and family use, not employment surveillance, commercial fleet tracking, schools, institutions, or government use unless we agree otherwise in writing.

2. ELIGIBILITY AND FAMILY ACCOUNTS

2.1 Minimum age. An OnTimr login account is available only to people age 13 or older. We do not intentionally permit children under 13 to create accounts, log in, directly submit information, or share a device’s location.

2.2 Family creation and invitations. A person who confirms they are at least 18 may create a family. Every other person joins an existing family only through a valid invitation from an authorized family member.

2.3 Minors age 13 through 17. A person age 13 through 17 may join only through a parent or legal guardian’s invitation. The parent or guardian must confirm the minor’s age band, approve and supervise use, and agree to these Terms on the minor’s behalf to the extent permitted by law. The minor must separately confirm the 13–17 age band and assent to these Terms when activating the account. The parent or guardian also agrees to these Terms in their own right, including Section 22, which applies to claims they bring on their own behalf or on the minor’s behalf to the extent permitted by law. The parent’s or guardian’s agreement extends to revised versions under Section 23, and we may ask the parent or guardian to approve material changes before the minor continues using the Service.

2.4 Parent and guardian responsibility. A parent or guardian who invites or approves a minor, or creates a managed profile for a child, is responsible for supervising that child’s use of the Service, for the information entered about the child, and, to the extent permitted by law, for the minor’s compliance with these Terms.

2.5 Managed profiles. An adult may create a managed, non-login profile to organize family schedules for someone who will not use the app, including a child under 13. A managed profile cannot receive an app invitation, log in, directly submit information, register a device, receive push credentials, or upload location. Every profile for a child under 13 is a managed profile.

2.6 Age information and changes. We record an age band rather than a date of birth, so we cannot tell when someone’s age band changes. An adult in the family may update a member’s age band, and a member may confirm they have reached 18. Before a managed profile for a child under 13 can become a login account, an adult must confirm the child is now at least 13 and complete the invitation and approval process described in section 2.3.

2.7 Accurate information and account security. You must provide accurate information, keep it current, protect your credentials and devices, and promptly notify us of unauthorized access. You are responsible for activity that occurs through your account or on a device you have signed in to or trusted, unless it results from our breach of these Terms. You may not misstate age, parental or guardian status, authority, family relationship, or another person’s consent, and you may not circumvent age, invitation, or approval checks.

3. THE SERVICE AND YOUR FAMILY

3.1 Features. OnTimr helps families coordinate calendars, events, reminders, family members, saved places, location information, notifications, and AI-assisted scheduling and organization. Some features may be unavailable, experimental, limited by device or platform, or offered only to selected beta users.

3.2 What your family can see. You control whom you invite. Family members may see information shared within the family, including names, roles, schedules, places, and—when enabled by the device user—location and device-status information. Use care when adding members or entering sensitive information.

3.3 Information about other people. When you enter information about another person—such as a family member, invitee, or someone named in an event, message, photo, or document—you represent that you have the right and any necessary permission to do so, and you are responsible for that information.

3.4 Family administration. Family creators and administrators control invitations, membership, managed profiles, and certain family settings. They are responsible for removing people who should no longer have access. Signal Bench does not verify family relationships, custody, or legal authority, and is not responsible for decisions family members make about each other’s access.

3.5 Family disputes. Signal Bench is not a party to, and has no duty to resolve, disputes among family members, co-parents, guardians, or other users, including disputes about custody, visitation, schedules, or access. OnTimr is not designed to create legal, court, or custody records, and we do not warrant that any schedule, location, notification, or history is complete or accurate enough for such use. You release Signal Bench from claims arising out of disputes between you and other users to the extent permitted by law. If you are a California resident, you waive California Civil Code section 1542, which says: “A general release does not extend to claims that the creditor or releasing party does not know or suspect to exist in his or her favor at the time of executing the release and that, if known by him or her, would have materially affected his or her settlement with the debtor or released party.”

4. LOCATION SHARING

4.1 Separate choice. Location sharing is optional and off until the device user takes an affirmative in-app action to share and grants the necessary operating-system permissions. Accepting these Terms, joining a family, or receiving parental approval does not by itself turn on location sharing. If you enabled sharing in an earlier version of the app, that choice continues until you stop it.

4.2 Information shared. When enabled, OnTimr may collect and share with authorized members of your family your precise or approximate coordinates, derived address or place name, timestamp, accuracy, heading, speed, motion state, battery level and charging state, permission state, and related device signals needed to provide and troubleshoot the feature. Family members may also ask the app to refresh your location, which can wake your device in the background to report its current position.

4.3 Background operation. If you grant background or “Always” permission, collection may continue while the app is closed or not actively used, and after the device restarts. Sharing also continues after you sign out, because signing out is an account action and not a decision to stop sharing with your family; it stops only when you stop it as described below.

4.4 Stopping. You can stop future location uploads at any time by revoking OnTimr’s location permission in your device’s operating-system settings or by uninstalling the app. Your last reported location and its time may remain visible to your family until you delete your account or email signalbench@gmail.com with the subject “Stop Location Sharing,” after which we will stop sharing for your account and remove your stored location. We may verify that an email request comes from the account holder before acting on it. Restarting requires a new affirmative action and, where needed, renewed operating-system permission.

4.5 Family responsibilities. You may request or view another member’s location only for legitimate family purposes and with that member’s knowledge and permission. You may not secretly track anyone, enable sharing on another person’s device without their knowledge, or use OnTimr for stalking, harassment, coercion, domestic abuse, employment monitoring, discrimination, law enforcement, or any unlawful purpose.

4.6 Best-effort only. Location updates can be delayed, inaccurate, stale, unavailable, or incomplete because of GPS conditions, device hardware, operating-system restrictions, force-quitting, battery settings, connectivity, permissions, third-party outages, or other factors outside our control. OnTimr may reduce update frequency to preserve battery or data. You assume the risk of relying on location information, and Signal Bench has no duty to monitor anyone’s location or to alert anyone about it.

4.7 Not an emergency or safety service. OnTimr is not an emergency, public-safety, child-safety, missing-person, medical-monitoring, or vehicle-safety service. Never rely on it to prevent injury, supervise a child, locate someone in an emergency, or contact first responders. In an emergency, call 911 or the appropriate emergency service.

5. REMINDERS AND NOTIFICATIONS

Reminders, push notifications, and emails—including event, drop-off, pick-up, and family-change notices—are a convenience and may be delayed, duplicated, missed, or not delivered because of device settings, operating systems, networks, app stores, or third-party messaging providers. You remain responsible for your schedule and for the care, transportation, and supervision of the people in your family. Do not rely on OnTimr as the only way to remember time-sensitive, safety-related, or medical obligations.

6. AI-ASSISTED FEATURES

6.1 Nature of AI output. OnTimr uses third-party artificial-intelligence providers to interpret messages, photos, and documents, answer questions about your family’s information, suggest or create events, and assist with family organization. AI output is generated probabilistically and may be inaccurate, incomplete, outdated, offensive, unsafe, or fabricated, and it may misread dates, times, people, or places.

6.2 Actions taken at your request. At your request, the assistant may take actions in your family account, such as creating, changing, or deleting events; creating events from a photo or document; inviting a person by email or revoking an invitation; adding a managed profile; regenerating a family code; changing your settings; and looking up saved places or the shared location of family members who have enabled sharing. You authorize these actions when you ask for them, and you are responsible for reviewing and correcting their results. Actions may affect what other family members see and may send notifications or emails to them or to invitees.

6.3 Verify before relying. You are responsible for reviewing dates, times, people, addresses, reminders, travel information, and all other AI output before saving, sharing, or acting on it. AI output is not legal, medical, financial, mental-health, safety, or other professional advice and must not be used for emergencies. Any decision or action you take based on AI output is at your own risk.

6.4 Inputs and attachments. Do not submit information you lack authority to share. Avoid unnecessary sensitive information, including health, financial, government-ID, or confidential third-party data. Messages, family context, results of lookups the assistant performs, images, PDFs, and extracted schedules are sent to service providers as explained in the Privacy Policy.

6.5 Safety, limits, and reporting. We use automated safeguards, moderation, topic limits, daily usage quotas, and human review of reported content, but cannot guarantee that every harmful or inaccurate response will be prevented. We may decline, limit, or change AI features at any time. You may report an AI response in the app by pressing and holding it and choosing “Report response.” You may not attempt to bypass safeguards, manipulate the assistant into ignoring its instructions, or use it to access information you are not authorized to see.

7. ACCEPTABLE USE

You will not:

(a) violate law or another person’s rights;
(b) stalk, threaten, exploit, impersonate, or harass anyone;
(c) access another family or account without authorization;
(d) upload malware or interfere with security, rate limits, quotas, or operation;
(e) reverse engineer the Service except where law expressly permits;
(f) scrape, resell, sublicense, or commercially exploit the Service;
(g) use automated systems to extract content, or use the Service or its output to train or develop competing models, without permission;
(h) submit unlawful, infringing, sexually exploitative, abusive, or deceptive material, or any material that sexualizes or endangers a minor;
(i) use location or family information for surveillance without informed permission;
(j) misrepresent age, parental status, or consent, or create an account for a child under 13; or
(k) help another person do any of the above.

7.1 Zero tolerance for objectionable content and abusive users. There is no tolerance on OnTimr for objectionable content or abusive users. This applies to everything you type, post, or upload, including event text, notes, and photos, images, and documents you upload to the AI assistant. Objectionable content includes material that is sexually explicit or pornographic; sexualizes, exploits, or endangers a minor; depicts or promotes violence, self-harm, or illegal activity; is hateful, harassing, bullying, threatening, or discriminatory; is defamatory, fraudulent, or deceptive; invades another person’s privacy, including sharing someone’s image, location, or personal information without permission; or infringes intellectual-property rights.

7.2 Reporting and blocking. You can report objectionable content or an abusive user by emailing signalbench@gmail.com with the subject “Report Content,” and you can report an AI response by pressing and holding it in the chat and choosing “Report response.” Family administrators can remove a member from the family at any time, which ends that member’s access to the family’s information. If you are not an administrator, you can ask an administrator to remove someone or report them to us, and we may remove the member or restrict their account. We aim to review reports within 24 hours.

7.3 Moderation and enforcement. We may use automated tools, such as AI moderation of messages sent to the assistant, and human review to detect and prevent objectionable content, but we do not pre-screen all content. If we determine that content or conduct violates these Terms, we may, without notice, remove or block the content, and suspend or permanently ban the user and any account associated with them. We may preserve evidence and report apparent child sexual exploitation to the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children, and report imminent threats or other unlawful activity to appropriate authorities.

8. USER CONTENT AND LICENSE

You retain ownership of information and content you submit, including text, photos, images, and documents, whether shared with your family or uploaded to the AI assistant (“User Content”). You grant Signal Bench a worldwide, nonexclusive, royalty-free license, transferable only to a successor under Section 24, which we may sublicense to our service providers and to the family members you share with, to host, store, copy, process, transmit, display, analyze, modify for technical formatting, and otherwise use User Content only as reasonably necessary to operate, secure, improve, and support the Service, comply with law, and enforce these Terms. This license ends when the content is deleted, subject to backups, legal retention, shared-family records, deidentified information, and other exceptions described in the Privacy Policy. We do not use User Content to train general-purpose AI models, and we do not authorize our AI providers to do so.

You represent that you have the rights and permissions needed to submit User Content and share it with the family members you select. You remain responsible for it. We have no obligation to monitor User Content but may remove content that we reasonably believe violates these Terms or law.

9. YOUR DATA AND BACKUPS

The Service is not a backup or archival service. Information may be lost, corrupted, or deleted because of technical failures, account deletion, family changes, expiration periods described in the Privacy Policy, or discontinuation of features. Keep your own copies of anything important. To the extent permitted by law, Signal Bench is not liable for loss of User Content.

10. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY, TRADEMARKS, AND COPYRIGHT

10.1 Our property. The Service, including its software, source and object code, design, “look and feel,” text, graphics, illustrations, icons, videos, and other materials supplied by Signal Bench (excluding User Content), are the exclusive property of Signal Bench or its licensors and are protected by copyright, trademark, trade-secret, and other intellectual-property laws. Subject to these Terms, we grant you a limited, revocable, nonexclusive, nontransferable, non-sublicensable license to install and use the app on devices you own or control for personal and family use. You may not copy, modify, distribute, sell, lease, or create derivative works of the Service, or circumvent any technical protection in it, except as these Terms or applicable law expressly permit. All rights not expressly granted are reserved.

10.2 Trademarks. “OnTimr,” “Signal Bench,” and the OnTimr logos, icons, and related names, designs, and slogans are trademarks or service marks of Signal Bench LLC, whether or not registered (the “OnTimr Marks”). You may not use the OnTimr Marks, or any confusingly similar mark, as or in a name, domain, app, social-media handle, advertisement, or keyword, or in any way that suggests sponsorship or endorsement, without our prior written permission. Nothing in the Service grants any license to use the OnTimr Marks by implication, estoppel, or otherwise, and all goodwill from their use benefits Signal Bench.

10.3 Third-party marks. OnTimr is independently developed. Other names and logos, including Apple, Google, OpenAI, Firebase, Expo, PostHog, Transistor, Talsec, Resend, and OpenStreetMap, are the property of their respective owners. References to them identify interoperable services and do not imply endorsement, sponsorship, or affiliation.

10.4 Copyright infringement notices. We respect intellectual-property rights and respond to notices of alleged infringement that comply with the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (“DMCA”), 17 U.S.C. § 512. Our designated agent to receive notices is:

Copyright Agent, Signal Bench LLC
Bothell, Washington, United States
Email: signalbench@gmail.com (subject: “Copyright Notice”)

We will provide a full mailing address for notices on request.

A notice must include: (a) a physical or electronic signature of the copyright owner or a person authorized to act for the owner; (b) identification of the copyrighted work claimed to be infringed; (c) identification of the allegedly infringing material and information reasonably sufficient to let us locate it; (d) your name, address, telephone number, and email address; (e) a statement that you have a good-faith belief that the use is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law; and (f) a statement that the information in the notice is accurate and, under penalty of perjury, that you are the owner or authorized to act on the owner’s behalf. Under 17 U.S.C. § 512(f), a person who knowingly misrepresents that material is infringing may be liable for damages.

10.5 Counter-notices. If material you submitted was removed and you believe it was removed by mistake or misidentification, you may send our Copyright Agent a counter-notice that includes: (a) your physical or electronic signature; (b) identification of the material removed and where it appeared before removal; (c) a statement under penalty of perjury that you have a good-faith belief the material was removed as a result of mistake or misidentification; and (d) your name, address, and telephone number, and a statement that you consent to the jurisdiction of the federal district court for your address (or, if you are outside the United States, any judicial district in which Signal Bench may be found) and will accept service of process from the person who sent the original notice. We may restore the material in 10 to 14 business days unless the original complainant notifies us that it has filed a court action.

10.6 Repeat infringers and other claims. We may remove or disable access to material that appears to infringe, and we will terminate, in appropriate circumstances, the accounts of users who are repeat infringers. To report infringement of trademarks or other rights that are not copyrights, email signalbench@gmail.com with enough detail for us to evaluate the claim.

11. FEEDBACK

If you provide product ideas or feedback, you grant us a perpetual, irrevocable, worldwide, royalty-free right to use them without restriction or compensation, without identifying you publicly unless you agree.

12. THIRD-PARTY SERVICES

The Service depends on operating systems, app stores, maps, cloud hosting, communications, analytics, AI, and other third-party services. Their terms and privacy practices may apply. We do not control and are not responsible for third-party services, outages, changes, or content.

Map, place, geocoding, and directions features use Google Maps Platform and, on some devices, Apple Maps. By using those features you agree to the Google Maps/Google Earth Additional Terms of Service (https://maps.google.com/help/terms_maps.html) and acknowledge the Google Privacy Policy (https://policies.google.com/privacy). Map data, addresses, travel times, and directions may be inaccurate; use your own judgment and obey traffic laws. Place and address lookups may also use OpenStreetMap Nominatim.

13. APP STORES

13.1 General. If you download the app from the Apple App Store or Google Play, these Terms are between you and Signal Bench only, not Apple or Google. Signal Bench, not Apple or Google, is solely responsible for the app and its content. Your use must also comply with the applicable store’s usage rules.

13.2 Apple. For an app downloaded from the Apple App Store: (a) your license is limited to use on Apple-branded products you own or control as permitted by the Apple Media Services Terms and Conditions; (b) Apple has no obligation to provide maintenance or support; (c) if the app fails to conform to an applicable warranty, you may notify Apple, and Apple will refund any purchase price for the app, and to the maximum extent permitted by law Apple has no other warranty obligation; (d) Apple is not responsible for addressing any claims by you or a third party relating to the app, including product-liability claims, claims that the app fails to conform to legal or regulatory requirements, and consumer-protection, privacy, or similar claims; (e) Apple is not responsible for the investigation, defense, settlement, or discharge of any third-party claim that the app infringes intellectual-property rights; (f) you represent that you are not located in a country subject to a U.S. Government embargo or designated as a “terrorist supporting” country, and are not on any U.S. Government list of prohibited or restricted parties; and (g) Apple and its subsidiaries are third-party beneficiaries of these Terms and may enforce them against you.

13.3 Google. For an app downloaded from Google Play: (a) your use must comply with the then-current Google Play Terms of Service; (b) Google is only the provider of the store where you obtained the app; (c) Signal Bench, not Google, is solely responsible for the app; and (d) Google has no obligation or liability to you with respect to the app or these Terms.

13.4 Carrier charges. Your wireless carrier’s standard data, messaging, and other charges apply to your use of the app, including background location uploads and notifications. Some features may not work with every carrier or device.

14. BETA SERVICE, FREE ACCESS, PAID FEATURES, AND CHANGES

14.1 Beta. The Service is currently in beta. It may be distributed through the Apple App Store, Google Play, or related store testing programs, and the applicable store’s terms also apply. Beta software may contain bugs, errors, and incomplete features. It may crash, behave unexpectedly, drain battery, or lose, corrupt, or reset data, including events, conversations, places, and settings. Features may be added, changed, or removed without notice, and we may require you to update the app, reset data, or re-create your account or family. We may limit, pause, or end your access to a beta or limited release, or end the beta itself, at any time. We have no obligation to provide support, maintenance, or any particular level of availability during beta. Do not rely on the beta for anything important, and use it at your own risk.

14.2 Beta feedback. We may ask for feedback, crash reports, and diagnostics during beta. Section 11 applies to feedback you provide.

14.3 Free access and changes. The Service may be offered free during beta. Free access does not promise that the Service or any feature will remain free, unlimited, or available after beta. We may introduce plans, quotas, eligibility rules, paid tiers, or feature restrictions; move, modify, suspend, or discontinue features; or end the Service.

14.4 Paid features. We may offer paid features, subscriptions, family plans, or one-time purchases in the future. We will not charge you merely because you accepted these Terms. Before any purchase, we will show you the price, billing period, any free-trial terms, and renewal and cancellation terms, and nothing is charged until you authorize it. Those purchase terms are part of these Terms, and this section 14 applies once paid features are offered.

14.5 Payment processors. Purchases made in the app are processed by Apple through the App Store or by Google through Google Play under their terms and payment policies. Purchases made outside the app, such as on a website, may be processed by a third-party payment processor such as Stripe under its terms and privacy policy. Signal Bench does not receive or store your full card number. You authorize the applicable store or processor to charge your selected payment method for the purchase, applicable taxes, and any renewals, and you represent that you are authorized to use that payment method. We are not responsible for errors, outages, or security incidents of a store or payment processor.

14.6 Automatic renewal. Unless stated otherwise at purchase, subscriptions renew automatically at the end of each billing period for the same period, at the then-current price, until you cancel. For store purchases, you are charged within 24 hours before the current period ends, and you must cancel at least 24 hours before it ends to avoid the next charge. You can cancel in your Apple or Google account subscription settings, or as described at purchase for other purchases. Cancellation takes effect at the end of the current paid period, and you keep access until then. Deleting the app or your account does not by itself cancel a store subscription.

14.7 Free trials. If a purchase includes a free trial, you will be charged when the trial ends unless you cancel before then. Trials are limited to one per person or family unless we say otherwise, and we may determine eligibility.

14.8 Refunds. Except as required by law or stated at purchase, payments are non-refundable and there are no refunds or credits for partial periods or unused features. Refunds for App Store and Google Play purchases are handled by Apple or Google under their policies, and we cannot issue them directly. If we terminate a paid subscription under section 17 without cause, we will refund the unused prepaid portion where we are able to do so.

14.9 Price changes, taxes, and failed payments. We may change prices for future billing periods with reasonable advance notice, and a change takes effect at your next renewal unless you cancel; the applicable store may also ask you to agree to a price increase. Prices may not include taxes, which you are responsible for. If a payment fails, is reversed, or is charged back, we may suspend or end the paid features until it is resolved.

14.10 Family plans. If a plan covers other family members, the purchaser is responsible for all charges, and the other members’ access to paid features ends if the purchaser’s plan ends, is canceled, or the member leaves the family.

15. ELECTRONIC COMMUNICATIONS

You consent to receive agreements, notices, disclosures, and other communications from us electronically, including in the app, by push notification, or by email to the address on your account, and agree that they satisfy any legal requirement that they be in writing. Service and security communications are part of the Service and are not marketing. You may manage push and email preferences for non-essential notifications in the app.

16. SECURITY

We use safeguards designed to protect the Service, but no system is completely secure. You are responsible for device security, credentials, trusted devices, family membership, and information you choose to share. Notify us promptly at signalbench@gmail.com if you suspect unauthorized access.

17. SUSPENSION AND TERMINATION

17.1 By you. You may stop using the Service and delete your account through available settings at any time.

17.2 By us. We may suspend, restrict, or terminate your account or access to all or part of the Service, remove you from a family, or permanently ban you, at any time, for any reason or no reason, in our sole discretion, with or without notice, to the extent permitted by law. Reasons may include a violation of these Terms, objectionable content or abusive conduct, suspected under-age use, fraud, security risk, legal requirement, prolonged inactivity, the end of the beta, or discontinuation of the Service. We will try to give notice when reasonably practicable, but we are not required to. If we ban you, you may not create a new account or use another person’s account without our written permission.

17.3 Effect of termination. When your access ends, your license to use the app ends, and we may delete your account and User Content as described in the Privacy Policy. Signal Bench is not liable to you or any third party for suspending or terminating your access, except as stated in section 14.8.

Termination ends your right to use the Service but does not erase provisions that by nature survive, including ownership, licenses already exercised, releases, disclaimers, limitations, indemnity, disputes, and legal retention.

18. DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTIES

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, THE SERVICE IS PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE,” WITH ALL FAULTS. SIGNAL BENCH DISCLAIMS ALL EXPRESS, IMPLIED, AND STATUTORY WARRANTIES, INCLUDING MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, ACCURACY, AVAILABILITY, SECURITY, AND QUIET ENJOYMENT.

We do not warrant that the Service, location, maps, notifications, reminders, AI output or actions, events, or stored data will be accurate, timely, secure, uninterrupted, or error-free, or that defects will be corrected. These disclaimers apply with particular force to beta and experimental features. Some jurisdictions do not allow certain disclaimers, so they apply only to the extent permitted by law.

19. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, SIGNAL BENCH AND ITS AFFILIATES, MEMBERS, MANAGERS, OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES, AGENTS, LICENSORS, AND SERVICE PROVIDERS WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, EXEMPLARY, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES; LOST PROFITS, DATA, GOODWILL, OR OPPORTUNITIES; OR PERSONAL INJURY, PROPERTY DAMAGE, OR OTHER HARM ARISING FROM FAMILY OR OTHER USER CONDUCT, LOCATION DELAY OR INACCURACY, MISSED OR DELAYED NOTIFICATIONS OR REMINDERS, AI OUTPUT OR ACTIONS, MAP OR DIRECTIONS ERRORS, UNAUTHORIZED ACCESS, OR THIRD-PARTY SERVICES, WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), STATUTE, OR ANY OTHER THEORY, EVEN IF ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, THEIR TOTAL AGGREGATE LIABILITY FOR ALL CLAIMS ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THE SERVICE OR THESE TERMS WILL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF (A) THE AMOUNT YOU PAID SIGNAL BENCH FOR THE SERVICE DURING THE 12 MONTHS BEFORE THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM OR (B) US$100.

These limits are an essential basis of the bargain, allowing us to offer the Service free or at low cost. They do not exclude liability for fraud, gross negligence, willful misconduct, or any other liability that cannot lawfully be excluded, and they apply even if a remedy fails of its essential purpose. If you are dissatisfied with the Service or these Terms, your sole remedy is to stop using the Service.

If you are a New Jersey resident, sections 18, 19, and 20 are intended to be only as broad as New Jersey law permits, and if any part of them is held invalid under New Jersey law, the remainder of those sections remains valid.

20. INDEMNITY

To the extent permitted by law, adult users, parents and guardians who approve a minor’s use, and family creators will defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Signal Bench and its affiliates, members, managers, officers, employees, and agents from third-party claims, damages, and reasonable costs, including attorneys’ fees, arising from their unlawful use, User Content, violation of these Terms, infringement, unauthorized tracking, misrepresentation of age, authority, or consent, AI actions they request, management of family access, or disputes with other users. This section does not require a minor to indemnify Signal Bench where prohibited and does not apply to Signal Bench’s own unlawful conduct. We may assume control of the defense of any matter at our expense, and you will cooperate.

21. GOVERNING LAW, INFORMAL RESOLUTION, AND TIME LIMIT

21.1 Governing law. Washington law governs these Terms without regard to conflict-of-law rules, except that the Federal Arbitration Act governs Section 22. Mandatory consumer protections of your home jurisdiction remain applicable. Subject to Section 22, claims will be brought exclusively in the state or federal courts located in the State of Washington, and you and Signal Bench consent to their jurisdiction, except that you may bring an eligible claim in small-claims court in your county of residence.

21.2 Informal resolution. Before starting arbitration, either party must send a written Notice of Dispute describing the claimant, facts, requested relief, and contact information. Send notices by email to signalbench@gmail.com with the subject “Legal Notice.” An emailed notice is sufficient, and we will provide a mailing address for formal service on request. We will send notices to you at the email address on your account. The parties will attempt in good faith to resolve the dispute for 60 days. Limitation periods are tolled during that period.

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

22. INDIVIDUAL ARBITRATION; CLASS AND JURY WAIVERS

22.1 Agreement. Except for the exclusions below, you and Signal Bench agree to resolve any claim arising out of or relating to the Service, these Terms, or our relationship by final and binding individual arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) under its Consumer Arbitration Rules and, when applicable, Mass Arbitration Supplementary Rules. The arbitrator may award the same individual remedies a court could award.

22.2 Exclusions. Either party may bring an eligible individual claim in small-claims court. Either party may seek temporary or preliminary injunctive relief in a court to protect security or intellectual-property rights while arbitration is pending. Nothing prevents reporting to or participating in an investigation by a government agency, or seeking a remedy that applicable law makes non-waivable.

22.3 No class proceedings. YOU AND SIGNAL BENCH WAIVE THE RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL AND TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS, COLLECTIVE, CONSOLIDATED, OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTION OR ARBITRATION, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW. The arbitrator may award relief only to the individual claimant, except that a claim for public injunctive relief, where applicable law does not allow it to be waived, will proceed in court after arbitrable claims are resolved.

22.4 Fees and location. AAA’s Consumer Arbitration Rules govern fees. Signal Bench will pay fees it is required to pay under those Rules. Arbitration may occur by video, documents, telephone, or in a reasonably convenient location.

22.5 Coordinated filings. If 25 or more substantially similar demands are filed by the same or coordinated counsel, AAA’s Mass Arbitration Supplementary Rules apply. A process arbitrator may resolve administrative and threshold issues, and cases may proceed in fair batches where permitted by AAA rules and law.

22.6 Opt out. You may opt out of this Section 22 by emailing signalbench@gmail.com within 30 days after first accepting these Terms. Include your full name, account email, and an unambiguous statement that you opt out of arbitration. Opting out does not affect other Terms or Service access.

22.7 Changes. If we materially change this arbitration section after your acceptance, we will provide notice and a new opt-out opportunity as required by law. A change will not apply to a dispute of which we had actual notice before the change.

22.8 Severability. If a prohibition on class or representative relief is unenforceable for a particular claim or remedy, that claim or remedy will proceed in court after arbitrable claims are resolved. Otherwise, an unenforceable portion will be severed and the remainder enforced.

23. CHANGES TO THESE TERMS

23.1 Our right to change. We may revise, add to, or remove any part of these Terms at any time, in our discretion, including as the Service changes during and after beta. Each version is posted in the app and at https://api.ontimr.com/terms with its own version number and effective date, and we record the version you accepted when you created your account.

23.2 Notice and effective date. Unless a later date is stated, a revised version takes effect when posted. For changes we consider material, we will give you reasonable advance notice through the app, by email, or by other reasonable means before they take effect. Changes needed for legal, regulatory, security, or safety reasons, or that concern new features, may take effect immediately.

23.3 Acceptance. By continuing to access or use the Service after a revised version takes effect, you agree to it. If you do not agree, you must stop using the Service and may delete your account. We may, but are not required to, ask you to accept a revised version in the app before continuing to use the Service, and we will do so where law requires affirmative acceptance.

23.4 Limits. Revised Terms apply prospectively and do not change the terms that applied to a dispute that arose, or of which we had actual notice, before the revision took effect. Section 22.7 governs changes to the arbitration section.

24. GENERAL

These Terms and incorporated notices are the entire agreement about the Service, except purchase-specific terms. You may not assign them without our consent. We may assign them in connection with a merger, financing, reorganization, sale of assets, or by operation of law. We are not liable for delay or failure caused by events beyond our reasonable control, including outages of third-party providers, networks, or power; natural disasters; epidemics; labor disputes; government action; or attacks on our systems. You may use the Service only in compliance with U.S. export-control and sanctions laws. Except as stated in section 13.2, there are no third-party beneficiaries. Failure to enforce a provision is not a waiver. Headings are for convenience. “Including” means “including without limitation.” The app is “commercial computer software” and is provided to U.S. Government end users only with the rights granted to all other users under these Terms. A printed copy of these Terms and of any electronic notice is admissible in judicial or administrative proceedings to the same extent as other business records. If a provision is unenforceable, the remainder remains effective subject to Section 22.8.
