Terms of Service

These Terms of Service (the "Terms") govern your use of the Nestie mobile application (the "App") and the website at usenestie.com (the "Site", and together with the App, the "Service"). The Service is developed and operated by Rainer Llera Menocal, based in Barcelona, Spain ("we", "us" or "the Service Provider").

By creating an account, downloading the App or otherwise using the Service, you agree to these Terms and to our Privacy Policy, which explains how we handle your data. If you do not agree, please do not use the Service.

1. What Nestie is

Nestie is a shared space for two people running a home together. A "nest" is a private space shared by up to two members, where you can organize chores, track shared expenses and budgets, plan meals, keep wishlists, save memories and message each other. Nestie is an organizational tool for your household; it is not a bank, a financial institution, a payment service or a professional advisory service.

2. Who can use Nestie

You must be at least 18 years old, or the age of majority where you live, to create an account and use the Service. By using the Service you represent that you meet this requirement and that you have the legal capacity to enter into these Terms.

3. Your account

You can sign in with an email address and password, with your Apple account, with your Google account, or start as a guest while you try the App. You are responsible for keeping your sign-in credentials secure and for all activity that happens under your account. Please tell us right away at rainer.dev.apps@gmail.com if you believe your account has been accessed without your permission.

Information you provide for your account must be accurate. You may not impersonate another person or create accounts for anyone other than yourself.

4. Your nest and your partner

Sharing is the point of Nestie. When you join a nest, the content you add to it (chores, expenses, budgets, meal plans, recipes, wishlist items, moments, photos and messages) is visible to the other member of your nest, and content they add is visible to you. Only invite someone you actually want to share this information with.

Invitations are sent by sharing an invite from within the App. You are responsible for who you invite. If you leave a nest or delete your account, content that belongs to the shared nest may remain available to the other member, as described in our Privacy Policy.

5. Your content

The photos, notes, plans and other material you add to the Service ("Your Content") belong to you. We claim no ownership over Your Content.

So that the Service can work, you grant us a limited, worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free license to host, store, reproduce, process, transmit and display Your Content, solely for the purpose of operating, providing and improving the Service for you and the other member of your nest. This includes, for example, storing your photos so they can sync between devices, and processing an image you share so the App can suggest a recipe or an expense from it. This license ends when Your Content is deleted from the Service, except where limited copies persist for a short period in routine backups.

You are responsible for Your Content. You represent that you have the rights needed to add it to the Service and that it does not violate the law or anyone else's rights.

6. Acceptable use

When using the Service, you agree not to:

• use the Service for any illegal purpose or in violation of any law;
• upload content that is unlawful, infringing, harassing or harmful to others;
• copy, modify, distribute, sell, lease, reverse engineer, decompile or attempt to extract the source code of the App, except to the extent such restriction is prohibited by law;
• interfere with or disrupt the Service, probe or test its vulnerability, or circumvent any of its security or access controls;
• access the Service by automated means or use it to build a competing product;
• misuse invitations, or attempt to access a nest you were not invited to.

We may suspend or terminate accounts that violate these rules, as described in Section 16.

7. Nestie Pro, subscriptions and purchases

The core of Nestie is free to use. Some features are part of an optional paid subscription ("Nestie Pro"). The features included in Nestie Pro, the prices and the available billing periods are shown in the App before you buy.

• Billing. Subscriptions are purchased through and billed by the app store you use, either Apple's App Store or Google Play. Payment is charged to your app store account at confirmation of purchase. We use RevenueCat to manage subscription status; we never see or store your payment card details.
• Auto-renewal. Subscriptions renew automatically at the end of each billing period unless you cancel at least 24 hours before the current period ends. Your app store account is charged for renewal within 24 hours before the start of the new period.
• Cancellation. You can cancel at any time in your App Store or Google Play subscription settings. Canceling stops future renewals; it does not retroactively refund the current period. Deleting the App does not cancel a subscription.
• Refunds. Refunds are handled by the app store where you made the purchase, under that store's policies. We cannot issue refunds for purchases made through Apple or Google.
• Free trials. If a free trial is offered, any unused portion is forfeited when you purchase a subscription. Unless you cancel before the trial ends, the trial converts into a paid subscription.
• Changes. We may change subscription prices or the features included in Nestie Pro. Price changes apply no earlier than your next billing period, and you will be able to cancel before they take effect.

8. AI features

Some features of the Service use artificial intelligence models to help you, for example scanning a receipt to suggest an expense, or analyzing a link, image or document you share into the App to suggest a recipe, a wishlist item or an expense. These features are powered by third-party AI services, including Google's Gemini models accessed through Firebase.

• AI-generated suggestions are informational and can be wrong. Always review amounts, dates, ingredients and other details before saving or relying on them.
• AI output does not constitute financial, nutritional, medical, legal or any other kind of professional advice.
• Your use of AI features is also subject to the applicable terms of the third-party AI providers.

9. Not professional advice

Budget and expense features in Nestie are tools for organizing your shared household spending. They do not constitute financial, tax, investment or accounting advice. Meal features do not constitute nutritional or medical advice. You alone decide how to act on information in the App, and you should consult a qualified professional for decisions that need one.

10. Third-party services and links

The Service relies on third-party services (for example cloud hosting, maps, place search and push notifications) and may display content from, or link to, third-party websites, such as a recipe page or a product page you saved. We do not control third-party services or websites and are not responsible for their content, accuracy or practices. Your use of them may be subject to their own terms, and any wireless data used by the App is subject to your agreement with your carrier.

11. Our intellectual property

The Service, including its software, design, illustrations, logos and name, is owned by the Service Provider and protected by intellectual property laws. Except for the rights to Your Content described in Section 5, these Terms do not grant you any right to use our trademarks, branding or other intellectual property. We grant you a personal, limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to use the App on devices you own or control, for your personal, non-commercial use, in accordance with these Terms.

12. Maintenance and support

We are solely responsible for the Service and for providing any maintenance and support for it. You can reach us at rainer.dev.apps@gmail.com. Apple and Google have no obligation to provide maintenance or support for the App. We may update, change or discontinue parts of the Service at any time; we will aim to give reasonable notice of changes that materially reduce its functionality.

13. Disclaimer of warranties

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, THE SERVICE IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE", WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, WHETHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE AND NON-INFRINGEMENT. WE DO NOT WARRANT THAT THE SERVICE WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, ERROR-FREE OR SECURE, OR THAT DATA LOSS WILL NEVER OCCUR.

Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion of certain warranties, so parts of the paragraph above may not apply to you. Nothing in these Terms limits any mandatory consumer rights you have under the law of the country where you live.

14. Limitation of liability

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, THE SERVICE PROVIDER SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR FOR ANY LOSS OF DATA, PROFITS OR REVENUE, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO YOUR USE OF THE SERVICE. TO THE SAME EXTENT, OUR TOTAL LIABILITY FOR ALL CLAIMS RELATING TO THE SERVICE SHALL NOT EXCEED THE AMOUNT YOU PAID US FOR THE SERVICE IN THE TWELVE MONTHS BEFORE THE CLAIM AROSE, OR FIFTY EUROS (EUR 50) IF YOU HAVE PAID NOTHING.

Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits liability that cannot be excluded or limited under applicable law, including liability for fraud or for death or personal injury caused by negligence.

15. Indemnity

To the extent permitted by applicable law, you agree to indemnify and hold the Service Provider harmless from claims, damages and expenses (including reasonable legal fees) arising from Your Content or from your violation of these Terms or of someone else's rights.

16. Termination

You can stop using the Service at any time and can delete your account from the settings inside the App. We may suspend or terminate your access to the Service if you materially breach these Terms, if we are required to by law, or if we discontinue the Service. Where reasonable, we will notify you before termination takes effect. Upon termination, the license granted to you under these Terms ends; sections that by their nature should survive (including Sections 5 and 11 through 15) survive termination.

17. Apple App Store terms

If you downloaded the App from Apple's App Store, the following additional terms apply:

• Acknowledgement. These Terms are an agreement between you and the Service Provider only, not with Apple. The Service Provider, not Apple, is solely responsible for the App and its content. These Terms do not provide usage rules for the App that conflict with the Apple Media Services Terms and Conditions.
• Scope of license. The license granted to you is a non-transferable license to use the App on any Apple-branded products that you own or control, as permitted by the Usage Rules set out in the Apple Media Services Terms and Conditions, except that the App may be accessed and used by other accounts associated with you via Family Sharing or volume purchasing.
• Maintenance and support. The Service Provider is solely responsible for providing any maintenance and support for the App. Apple has no obligation whatsoever to furnish any maintenance and support services for the App.
• Warranty. The Service Provider is solely responsible for any product warranties, whether express or implied by law, to the extent not effectively disclaimed. If the App fails to conform to any applicable warranty, you may notify Apple, and Apple will refund the purchase price of the App to you. To the maximum extent permitted by law, Apple has no other warranty obligation with respect to the App, and any other claims, losses, liabilities, damages, costs or expenses attributable to a failure to conform to a warranty are the Service Provider's responsibility.
• Product claims. The Service Provider, not Apple, is responsible for addressing any claims by you or a third party relating to the App or your possession or use of it, including product liability claims, claims that the App fails to conform to legal or regulatory requirements, and claims under consumer protection, privacy or similar legislation.
• Intellectual property claims. In the event of a third-party claim that the App or your possession and use of it infringes that third party's intellectual property rights, the Service Provider, not Apple, is solely responsible for the investigation, defense, settlement and discharge of the claim.
• Legal compliance. You represent and warrant that you are not located in a country subject to a U.S. Government embargo or designated by the U.S. Government as a "terrorist supporting" country, and that you are not listed on any U.S. Government list of prohibited or restricted parties.
• Third-party beneficiary. Apple and Apple's subsidiaries are third-party beneficiaries of these Terms, and upon your acceptance of these Terms, Apple will have the right (and will be deemed to have accepted the right) to enforce these Terms against you as a third-party beneficiary.

18. Google Play terms

If you downloaded the App from Google Play, your use of the App must also comply with the Google Play Terms of Service. Google is not a party to these Terms and is not responsible for the App or its content.

19. Changes to these Terms

We may update these Terms from time to time, for example when we add features or when the law requires it. When we do, we will update the date at the top of this page, and for material changes we will give you notice through the App or the Site before they take effect. If you continue to use the Service after updated Terms take effect, you agree to the updated Terms. If you do not agree, stop using the Service and delete your account.

20. Governing law

These Terms are governed by the laws of Spain, without prejudice to any mandatory consumer protection rules of the country where you habitually reside. If any provision of these Terms is found unenforceable, the remaining provisions remain in full effect.
