Terms of Service

Effective: January 1, 2025

These Terms of Service (“Terms”) govern your use of the ScreenZen website, apps, and related services and hardware (collectively, the “Services”), provided by ScreenZen LLC (“ScreenZen,” “we,” “us,” or “our”). By using the Services, you agree to these Terms and to our Privacy Policy (link in app and site footer). If you don’t agree, do not use the Services.

1) Who can use ScreenZen

You must be at least 13. If you are 13–17, a parent/guardian must consent and supervise. You may use the Services only in compliance with applicable laws.

2) What ScreenZen provides (and what it doesn’t)

ScreenZen is a digital-wellbeing tool that helps you create space before using distracting apps. We do not provide medical or mental-health advice and the Services are not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease or condition. Use the Services only when it’s safe to shift your attention (e.g., never while driving or operating machinery) and stop if you feel unwell.

3) Accounts & access

Creating an account may be optional. If you create one, you’re responsible for safeguarding your credentials and all activity under your account. We may modify, suspend, or terminate the Services or your access to them at any time to protect the Services or comply with law.

4) License & intellectual property

The Services—including software, text, graphics, logos, and trademarks—are owned by ScreenZen and our licensors and protected by law. We grant you a limited, revocable, non-transferable license to use the apps and site for personal, non-commercial use. Do not copy, modify, reverse engineer, or resell any part of the Services except as permitted by law.

If you download the iOS app, your use is also subject to Apple’s Standard EULA; Apple and Google are not responsible for the Services or any related claims.

5) Acceptable use

Do not misuse the Services. For example, do not: (a) interfere with or disrupt the Services; (b) attempt to access areas or data you’re not authorized to access; (c) upload malware; (d) use the Services in violation of law or to infringe others’ rights.

6) Hardware (Halo) notice

If you purchase or use our Halo device, it is consumer electronics, not a medical device, and not for life-safety or emergency use. Use only as instructed and in accordance with local laws and platform rules. A separate limited warranty or product terms may apply and will be provided at purchase.

7) Third-party services

The Services may link to or interoperate with third-party products (e.g., app stores, analytics, operating systems). We are not responsible for those third parties or their content, terms, or practices.

8) Disclaimers

THE SERVICES ARE PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE.” TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, WE DISCLAIM ALL WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT. We do not guarantee any particular outcomes, availability, or that the Services will be error-free or uninterrupted.

9) Limitation of liability

TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, SCREENZEN WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES (INCLUDING LOST PROFITS, DATA, OR GOODWILL). OUR TOTAL LIABILITY FOR ANY CLAIM RELATING TO THE SERVICES WILL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF (A) USD $100 OR (B) THE AMOUNTS YOU PAID TO SCREENZEN FOR THE SERVICES IN THE 12 MONTHS BEFORE THE CLAIM. Some jurisdictions do not allow certain limits; where they do not, we apply the maximum limits permitted by law.

10) Indemnity

You agree to indemnify and hold ScreenZen harmless from claims, damages, losses, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) arising from your misuse of the Services or violation of these Terms.

11) Changes to the Services or Terms

We may update the Services and these Terms from time to time. If changes are material, we’ll provide reasonable notice (e.g., updating the “Effective” date and posting a notice on our site or in-app). Your continued use after changes become effective constitutes acceptance.

12) Governing law & venue

These Terms are governed by the laws of California. You agree to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of the state or federal courts located in Sonoma County, California for any dispute not subject to mandatory arbitration or where arbitration is unavailable.
