BuzzChores — Terms of Service

Last updated: 21 October 2026

These Terms govern your use of the BuzzChores mobile application (the "App"), provided by KODOLAB S.R.L. ("we", "us"):

By creating an account or using the App, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, please do not use the App.

1. What BuzzChores does

BuzzChores helps a household organise chores: create and assign tasks, set due dates and reminders, track who completed what, award reward points, and view statistics. Features may change over time as the App evolves.

2. Eligibility and accounts

3. Families, children and invites

4. Reward points are not money

Reward points in BuzzChores are a tracking tool only. They have no monetary value, are not a currency, and are not redeemable from us. If your family chooses to treat points as pocket money or another reward, that arrangement is entirely between you and your family members and is settled outside the App. We do not process, hold, or transfer any money between family members.

5. Your content

You keep ownership of the content you enter (chore names, notes, member names, and so on). You grant us only the limited permission needed to store and display that content in order to operate the App for you and your family.

6. Licence to use the App and intellectual property

Licence. We grant you a personal, limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable licence to use the App on your own devices for your family's own non-commercial use. All rights not expressly granted to you remain with KODOLAB S.R.L. This licence does not give you any ownership of the App, and you may not copy, modify, distribute, sell, or reverse engineer it except as permitted by applicable law.

Apple App Store. If you download the App from Apple's App Store, it is also licensed to you under Apple's standard Licensed Application End User License Agreement (the "Apple EULA"); these Terms apply in addition to it.

Ownership. The App itself — its software, design, text, graphics, and the BuzzChores name and logo — is owned by KODOLAB S.R.L. or its licensors and is protected by copyright, trademark, and other laws.

7. Acceptable use

You agree not to:

We may suspend or terminate accounts that violate these Terms.

8. Subscriptions and payments

Free trial. Every newly created family gets 30 days of full access at no charge. No payment details are needed to start the trial, and nothing is charged during it.

After the trial. To keep using the App once the 30 days end, the family needs an active subscription. We currently offer:

Prices include VAT. The store may display the equivalent in your local currency. The exact price and billing period are shown by Apple or Google before you confirm; the amount charged is the store's price for your region, which may differ from the euro figures above.

Early testers. Families created before 15 September 2026, and a small number of other families we chose to thank for helping us test BuzzChores, keep free access to the App for as long as BuzzChores is offered. They do not need a subscription, and the trial and billing terms in this section do not apply to them.

One subscription per family. A subscription is bought by a parent and unlocks the App for every member of that family. Members are not billed individually. If the paying parent leaves the family or deletes their account, the family returns to the locked state until another parent subscribes; the family's existing data is kept and is not deleted.

Billing, renewal and cancellation.

If you don't subscribe. When the trial ends and there is no active subscription, the App locks and its features become unavailable. Your family's data is retained, not deleted, and becomes available again as soon as a parent subscribes. You can still delete your account at any time (see section 11).

EU consumers — right of withdrawal. If you are a consumer in the EU, you may withdraw from a paid subscription within 14 days of purchase, without giving a reason. To withdraw, request a refund through Apple or Google (whichever store processed your purchase), or email us at office@kodolab.dev. If you expressly requested that the service start during the withdrawal period, you will pay a proportionate amount for the days it was provided before you withdrew; otherwise you pay nothing for that period. This does not limit your right to cancel future renewals at any time.

9. Availability

We aim to keep the App available and reliable, but we do not guarantee uninterrupted or error-free operation. Reminders and notifications depend on your device settings, network, and the operating system, and may be delayed or missed. Please do not rely on the App for anything safety-critical or time-critical. Changes to the App are covered in section 12. The App is not currently offered to users in the United Kingdom; we may extend availability there in the future.

10. Disclaimer and limitation of liability

IF YOU ARE NOT A CONSUMER, THE APP IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE", WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW.

TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, WE ARE NOT LIABLE FOR INDIRECT OR CONSEQUENTIAL LOSSES, FOR LOSS OF DATA NOT CAUSED BY OUR FAULT, OR FOR MISSED OR DELAYED TASKS OR NOTIFICATIONS (SEE SECTION 9).

If you are a consumer, nothing in these Terms limits your statutory rights, including the legal guarantee of conformity for digital services (Government Emergency Ordinance 141/2021). Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits liability for intent or gross negligence (Romanian Civil Code, art. 1355), for fraud, for death or personal injury, or any other liability that cannot be excluded or limited by law.

11. Termination

You may stop using the App and delete your account at any time. We may suspend or terminate access if you breach these Terms or if we discontinue the service. On deletion, your data is handled as described in the Privacy Policy.

12. Changes to the App and to these Terms

Changes to the App. We may modify the App only for valid reasons: security, legal compliance, bug fixes, technical or platform changes, or service improvements. Modifications come at no extra cost to you, and we give reasonable advance notice in the App or by email. If a change negatively affects your access to or use of the App by more than a minor degree, you may terminate free of charge within 30 days of the notice, and you will receive a pro-rata refund of prepaid fees for the unused period.

Changes to these Terms. We update the "Last updated" date whenever we change these Terms. Material changes take effect at the earliest 30 days after we notify you in the App or by email. If you disagree, you can cancel before they take effect.

13. Resolving a dispute

Before starting any formal legal proceeding, we ask that you first contact us at office@kodolab.dev and give us a reasonable opportunity — normally 30 days — to resolve the issue informally. Most problems can be sorted out this way faster than through a court or regulator.

This is a request, not a condition: it does not limit, delay, or replace any right you have under mandatory consumer-protection law, including your right to go directly to a court or a consumer-protection authority at any time. We do not require arbitration and do not ask you to waive any right to bring or join a class action.

If you are a consumer, you can also contact the Romanian consumer-protection authority ANPC (anpc.ro) and its Alternative Dispute Resolution service (SAL), under Government Ordinance 38/2015: anpc.ro/sal. EU consumers may also bring proceedings in the courts of their country of habitual residence (see section 14).

14. Governing law

These Terms are governed by the laws of Romania, without prejudice to mandatory consumer protection rules of your country of residence. We intend disputes to be handled by the competent Romanian courts; however, mandatory consumer-protection rules do not disappear just because we are based in Romania:

15. General

16. Content and moderation

This section is provided in line with Regulation (EU) 2022/2065 (the Digital Services Act).

Single point of contact. Authorities and users can contact us about this section at office@kodolab.dev, in English or Romanian.

How we moderate. The content you enter in the App is private to your family. We do not proactively monitor it, and we do not use automated content moderation. We act on notices of illegal content and on breaches of these Terms.

Reporting illegal content. Email office@kodolab.dev and tell us why you consider the content illegal, where it is in the App, and your name and email address. If your notice concerns child sexual abuse material, you do not need to give your name or email address.

If we act. If we restrict content or suspend an account, we tell the affected user the reason and how to contest the decision.
