Terms of Service

1. Acceptance of Terms & Eligibility

These Terms of Service (“Terms”) form a binding agreement between you (“User”, “you”) and Robbie Cook, operator of Tiny Sprout (“we”, “us”), governing your access to and use of Tiny Sprout at sprout.robbie.digital and associated applications.

By creating an account, accessing, or using Tiny Sprout, you confirm that:

• You have read, understood, and agree to be bound by these Terms and our Privacy Policy.
• You are at least 18 years of age (or the legal age of majority in your jurisdiction). Minors are not permitted to create accounts or hold memberships in Tiny Sprout.
• You are acting as a parent, legal guardian, or caregiver with explicit permission to track records on behalf of the household.

2. Service Description & Scope

Tiny Sprout is a shared activity logger that allows households to track daily routines and developmental milestones for infants and young children. The service operates on Cloudflare Workers and Cloudflare D1 infrastructure. Features include timeline views, trend summaries, data export, CSV import from Nara Baby, and multi-user household collaboration.

3. Accounts, Security & Credentials

To use Tiny Sprout, you must create an account with a valid email address and password. You agree to:

• Provide accurate, current, and complete registration information.
• Maintain the confidentiality of your password. You are solely responsible for all activity that takes place under your account.
• Notice regarding email recovery: As explicitly disclosed upon signup, automated password reset via email is not currently active for the general public. You are strongly advised to store your password in a reputable password manager. If you lose your credentials, account recovery may not be possible.
• Notify us immediately at privacy@robbie.digital if you discover or suspect any unauthorized access to your account.

4. Household Sharing, Roles & Permissions

Tiny Sprout is built around multi-tenant households (household). The person who creates a household is its initial owner. An owner can invite other individuals (such as partners, grandparents, or nannies) via email.

Each member in a household is assigned one of three strict roles (enforced in worker/tenancy.ts):

Owner Responsibility: As a household owner, you have sole authority to invite members. Anyone you invite will have visibility into your child’s care logs and profile according to their assigned role. Only invite individuals you know and personally trust.

5. Child Data & Parental Consent

Tiny Sprout is not designed for or marketed to children. Children do not create accounts and cannot interact with the service. All data regarding children—including name, date of birth, sex, feeding records, diaper outputs, sleep schedules, and growth measurements—is entered solely by the consenting adult account holder (parent or legal guardian) for family care coordination.

6. Intellectual Property & User Content Ownership

Your Data Remains Yours: You retain complete ownership of all data, photos, care logs, and notes that you enter into Tiny Sprout (“User Content”). We claim no ownership over your family’s records.

Limited License to Provide the Service: By posting User Content, you grant Tiny Sprout a limited, worldwide, royalty-free, non-exclusive license solely to host, store, replicate, format, and display your User Content to you and the authorized members of your household as necessary to operate the application.

Tiny Sprout Intellectual Property: Tiny Sprout, including its software code, visual interface, icons, branding, designs, and documentation, is the exclusive intellectual property of Robbie Cook and protected by copyright and intellectual property laws. You may not copy, reverse engineer, decompile, modify, or distribute any part of Tiny Sprout without prior written authorization.

7. Acceptable Use Policy

You agree not to misuse Tiny Sprout. Specifically, you agree not to:

• Use Tiny Sprout for any illegal, harmful, or fraudulent purpose.
• Probe, scan, or test the vulnerability of our systems or networks, or circumvent edge rate limits and security controls.
• Use automated scripts, bots, spiders, or scrapers to access the service or extract data outside of our provided user interface.
• Upload malicious code, viruses, or any data URL payloads designed to crash or exploit client browsers.
• Attempt to access households, babies, or entries to which you have not been granted explicit membership.

8. Service Availability & “As Is” Disclaimer

Tiny Sprout is provided on an “AS IS” and “AS AVAILABLE” basis, without warranties of any kind, whether express, implied, or statutory, including but not limited to implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement, or availability.

While we strive for high reliability and utilize global Cloudflare infrastructure, we do not warrant that:

• The service will be uninterrupted, error-free, timely, or completely secure.
• Data stored in your browser’s local storage will never be lost (e.g. if you clear your browser data).
• Calculated feeding intervals, statistics, or trend charts are free from mathematical discrepancies or operational bugs.

9. Limitation of Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law (including the New Zealand Consumer Guarantees Act 1993 and Fair Trading Act 1986, to the extent they apply and cannot be excluded):

• No liability for consequential damages: In no event shall Robbie Cook, Tiny Sprout, or its contributors be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, including loss of data, loss of goodwill, emotional distress, or device failure, arising out of or related to your use of or inability to use the service.
• No medical liability: Under no circumstances shall Tiny Sprout or its operator be held liable for any health decisions, medical complications, missed feedings, adverse pediatric outcomes, or physical injuries. You acknowledge that care for your child is solely your responsibility.
• Total liability cap: In no event shall our total aggregate liability arising out of or relating to these Terms or Tiny Sprout exceed the total amount paid by you to Tiny Sprout in the twelve (12) months preceding the claim, or NZD $50.00, whichever is greater.

10. Suspension, Termination & Account Deletion

You may terminate at any time: You can permanently delete your account directly inside the app (Account → Delete account).

• If you are the sole member of a household, your household, babies, and all entries are permanently wiped from the database.
• If you belong to a shared household, the family history is preserved for remaining members; your membership is terminated and your attribution is scrubbed to “Former member”.

Termination by Us: We reserve the right to suspend or terminate your access to Tiny Sprout immediately, without notice, if you breach these Terms, engage in abusive behavior, or attempt to compromise system security.

11. Governing Law & Jurisdiction

These Terms, their subject matter, and their formation are governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of New Zealand, without regard to conflict of law principles.

You agree that the courts of New Zealand shall have non-exclusive jurisdiction to resolve any dispute, claim, or controversy arising out of or relating to these Terms or your use of Tiny Sprout.
