Acceptance of these terms
These Terms of Use (“Terms”) are an agreement between you and Off-Hours Owner (“Off-Hours Owner,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) and govern your use of the Off-Hours Owner web app, including when you add it to your home screen (the “App”). By using the App, you agree to these Terms and to our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, do not use the App.
Eligibility
You must be 18 or older and able to form a binding contract to use the App. By using it, you confirm that you meet these requirements.
The App and changes to it
Off-Hours Owner is a free planner and logger for a side business you are building after hours. It does not charge a fee. An account is optional and free; it adds automatic cloud backup and sync.
We may add, change, or remove features, or suspend or stop the App, at any time. If we plan to stop the cloud backup service, we will try to give account holders reasonable notice so they can export their data.
Accounts and security
If you create an account, give a valid email address you control and keep access to it, because it is how you sign in and reset your password. If you use a password, keep it private. One account is for one person. You are responsible for activity under your account and for keeping your email account and your device secure. Tell us promptly at hello@offhoursowner.com if you believe someone has accessed your account without permission.
You can sign out at any time, and your data stays on your device. You can delete your account and all cloud data yourself at any time in More, then Account & cloud backup.
Your data and content
You own the information you enter in the App (“Your Content”). We do not claim ownership of it.
If you turn on cloud backup, you give us a limited, non-exclusive, royalty-free, worldwide license to host, store, copy, transmit, and display Your Content only as needed to store, back up, sync, and restore it for you and to run and secure the service. This license ends when you delete Your Content or your account, except for copies held for a limited period in provider system backups.
You are responsible for Your Content and for keeping your own copies. Without an account, your entries stay on your device, and we cannot retrieve them if you clear the browser, lose the phone, or forget a PIN and have no backup file. The cloud backup can be unavailable at times, so export a backup file now and then if your log matters to you.
Acceptable use
Use the App only for your own lawful purposes. You agree not to: access or try to access anyone else’s account or data; probe, scan, or test the vulnerability of the App or its systems, or get around its security; interfere with or disrupt the App, its servers, or its providers, including by overloading them or using automated scripts; reverse engineer the App except where the law allows; use the App to store or send unlawful, infringing, or harmful material; or use the App in a way that violates any law or these Terms.
Feedback
If you send us ideas, suggestions, or other feedback, you agree we may use them without restriction or payment to you.
Future paid plans
The Plans screen previews possible paid plans. They are not on sale, nothing is charged, and prices shown are launch pricing that may change. Joining the founding waitlist is free and does not commit you to buy anything.
If we offer paid plans in the future, the price, billing terms, and any additional terms will be shown to you before you buy, and you will have to agree to them before you are charged. Nothing in these Terms authorizes any charge.
Intellectual property
The App, including its design, code, text, graphics, logos, and the Off-Hours Owner name, is owned by Off-Hours Owner or its licensors and is protected by intellectual property laws. Subject to these Terms, we give you a personal, limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to use the App for your own use. You may not copy, modify, distribute, sell, or lease any part of the App, or use our name or logos, without our written permission. All rights not expressly granted are reserved.
Third-party services
The App relies on third-party services, including Supabase (database and sign-in), Resend (sign-in emails), Netlify (hosting), and Google (optional sign-in), and it links to the Off-Hours Owner newsletter on Beehiiv and to other sites such as X. Third-party services and sites are governed by their own terms and privacy policies. We are not responsible for them, and a link is not an endorsement.
Not professional advice
Estimates in the App come from what you log. They are for general information only and are not financial, tax, or legal advice, and they are not taxable profit or bookkeeping records. “Paycheck replaced” figures are educational only. Talk to a qualified professional before making financial, tax, legal, or career decisions, including leaving a job. Check your employment agreement for side-work and IP rules before you build on the side.
Disclaimer of warranties
THE APP IS PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE,” WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, WHETHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED, OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT. WE DO NOT WARRANT THAT THE APP WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, ERROR-FREE, OR SECURE, THAT DATA WILL NOT BE LOST, OR THAT ANY RESULTS OR FIGURES WILL BE ACCURATE.
Some places do not allow the exclusion of certain warranties, so some of these exclusions may not apply to you.
Limitation of liability
TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, OFF-HOURS OWNER WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR FOR ANY LOSS OF DATA, PROFITS, REVENUE, OR BUSINESS OPPORTUNITIES, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THE APP OR THESE TERMS, EVEN IF WE HAVE BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
OUR TOTAL LIABILITY FOR ALL CLAIMS ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THE APP OR THESE TERMS WILL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF (A) THE AMOUNT YOU PAID US FOR THE APP IN THE 12 MONTHS BEFORE THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM, OR (B) FIFTY US DOLLARS ($50).
Some places do not allow these limitations, so they may not fully apply to you. Nothing in these Terms limits liability that cannot be limited under applicable law.
Indemnification
To the extent the law allows, you agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Off-Hours Owner from any claims, losses, liabilities, damages, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) arising out of your misuse of the App, Your Content, or your violation of these Terms or of any law or the rights of another person.
Termination
You may stop using the App at any time and delete your account and all cloud data yourself. We may suspend or end your access to the cloud service if you violate these Terms, if required by law, or to protect the App or other users. Where reasonable, we will try to give notice first so you can export your data. Sections that by their nature should survive termination (including Your data and content, Feedback, Intellectual property, Disclaimer of warranties, Limitation of liability, Indemnification, Governing law and venue, and Informal dispute resolution) will survive.
Governing law and venue
These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Wisconsin, without regard to its conflict-of-laws rules. Subject to the informal dispute resolution section below, any dispute arising out of or related to the App or these Terms will be brought only in the state or federal courts located in Wisconsin, and you and we consent to the personal jurisdiction of those courts. Either of us may instead bring an individual claim in a small claims court where you live, if the claim qualifies.
Informal dispute resolution
Before filing a claim, you and we each agree to try to resolve the dispute informally. Send a written description of the dispute and the outcome you want by email to hello@offhoursowner.com (or, for us, to the email address on your account). If the dispute is not resolved within 30 days after the notice is received, either party may start a court proceeding as described above. These Terms do not require arbitration.
General terms
Severability: if any part of these Terms is found unenforceable, the rest stays in effect, and the unenforceable part will be enforced to the greatest extent allowed. Entire agreement: these Terms and the Privacy Policy are the entire agreement between you and us about the App and replace any earlier agreements. No waiver: our failure to enforce any part of these Terms is not a waiver of our right to enforce it later. Assignment: you may not transfer these Terms without our written consent; we may transfer them, for example to a company formed to run the App or in a merger or sale, and they will bind the new owner.
Changes to these terms
We may update these Terms from time to time. When we do, we will post the updated Terms on this page and change the “Last updated” date at the top. If we make a material change, we will also give notice in the App or by email to account holders before it takes effect. Your continued use of the App after an update takes effect means you accept the updated Terms. If you do not agree, stop using the App and delete your account.
