Terms
What testing means, in writing
This is a private test of software that is not finished. These terms describe the actual arrangement — what we ask of you, what we don't promise yet, and how either of us can walk away — not a finished legal contract dressed up to look final.
What you're agreeing to test
By creating an account or installing a test build, you're joining a private test, not buying a finished product. Screens change, features move, and a build you install today can behave differently tomorrow. We tell you what changed when it matters; we don't promise it never will.
Private testing. ParentProof is not yet a launched service. This page describes the actual rules of a test arrangement, not a finalised legal notice. A full Terms of Service ships with the paid launch. If you need something more formal before then, ask and you will get a straight answer.
What it's for
ParentProof is built for a parent or legal guardian to supervise a device belonging to their own minor child, with the authority to do so where they live. That's the whole use case this product is designed, tested, and written for.
- Not for supervising an adult, a spouse, an employee, or anyone else without their knowledge and legal consent.
- Not for a device you don't have the authority to manage.
- Not for anything your local law treats as covert surveillance of another person.
You're responsible for knowing what your own jurisdiction requires before you set a device up. We build the tool; we can't be the one who knows your local law for you.
What we don't promise yet
No uptime guarantee
The service can go down, get slow, or need a restart while we're building it. We aim to keep a "Rest"/lock state safely fail-closed rather than silently do nothing, but a test build is not a service-level agreement.
No warranty
Test software is provided as-is, without a warranty of any kind, express or implied — including fitness for a particular purpose. Don't rely on it as your only safeguard for anything safety-critical.
Limited liability
To the extent the law allows it, we're not liable for indirect, incidental, or consequential loss from using a pre-launch test build. Where local law gives you rights this paragraph can't waive, those rights stand.
Free during testing
Nothing described on the pricing page is charged during private testing. If that changes for your account, we tell you first — a pre-ticked box is not consent.
What we ask of you
- Don't try to break, resell, or redistribute the software, or reverse-engineer it to build a competing product.
- Don't use the account, pairing codes, or device tokens for anything other than setting up your own household's devices.
- Tell us honestly what breaks. A private test only works if the reports are real — see Support.
Ending it
- You can stop testing and delete your account at any time — see Privacy for what that removes.
- We can end a test build, or your access to one, at any time, for any reason, without it implying anything about you — private testing is exactly that: private, and provisional.
- Ending a test doesn't undo anything either side already did in good faith while it was running.
Trademarks, and changes to this page
Android is a trademark of Google LLC. Amazon Fire is a trademark of Amazon.com, Inc. Samsung and Galaxy Tab are trademarks of Samsung Electronics. ParentProof is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by any of them.
We can update this page as the test changes. We don't backdate a change to cover something that already happened — if a real change to the arrangement matters to you, we'll say so plainly rather than bury it in an edit.
