Terms of Service

aboutthe.app is operated by Roman Banar, Company ID 72988363, Svobodova 744, Bílovec, Czech Republic (European Union) ("we" or the "Operator"). You can contact us at [email protected], which is also our single point of contact for public authorities and for recipients of the Service under the Digital Services Act, available in Czech and English.

The Service helps people who build or maintain software keep product information, deployments, links and notes in one place and share selected information through a public page, API or embeddable About box.

These Terms form the agreement between you and the Operator for using the Service. You accept them when you create an account. If you act for a company or another organisation, you confirm that you may accept these Terms on its behalf. If you are not legally able to accept these Terms on your own, you may use the Service only with the consent of your parent or legal guardian.

Sign-in is passwordless, using a supported third-party identity provider or a link sent to your email. You are responsible for keeping access to your email and connected identity-provider accounts secure and for activity performed through your account.

A workspace (called a tenant in the application) belongs to one owner and may include additional members where the selected plan allows it. Members must use the Service only for the workspace to which they were invited.

You remain responsible for the information, links and other content you enter into the Service and must have the right to use and share it. You grant us a non-exclusive licence to store, process and display that content only as needed to provide the Service.

You must not:

• store passwords, API keys, access tokens or other secret values in the Service
• upload or publish unlawful content, infringe third-party rights, or process personal data without a valid legal basis
• attempt to access another workspace without permission, bypass security controls, disrupt the Service or place an unreasonable load on it
• use the Service for spam, fraud, malware or any other unlawful activity

We may restrict access to content or suspend an account where reasonably necessary to stop misuse, protect the Service or comply with law. Where practical, we will explain the reason and allow you to remedy the issue.

Content marked as public can be viewed by anyone through the product's public page, API or embed. Private content is available to authorised workspace members and may also be revealed on the public page or embed by entering that product's unlock code.

An unlock code is a shared access code, not a substitute for a user account or a secrets manager. Anyone who receives it can view the private content it unlocks until you replace or disable it. You are responsible for visibility settings and for who receives the code.

Links in your content may lead to services operated by others. We do not control those services and are not responsible for their availability, security or content.

The current Free, Solo and Team plans, their limits and their prices are shown at aboutthe.app/pricing. Free is a continuing free plan, not a trial. Paid plans are annual subscriptions and renew automatically until cancelled.

Our order process is conducted by our online reseller Paddle.com. Paddle.com is the Merchant of Record for all our orders. Paddle provides all customer service inquiries and handles returns, including requests concerning a payment, refund or statutory withdrawal, as described in our Refund Policy. The price, applicable taxes, renewal date and payment terms are shown before purchase. Paddle issues payment documents and its Buyer Terms also apply to the transaction. Nothing in these Terms limits rights that applicable law gives you.

You may change or cancel a paid plan from the Service or Paddle's buyer portal. Before a paid change is confirmed, the Service shows when it takes effect and any resulting charge. Cancellation takes effect at the end of the current paid period, after which the workspace returns to the plan indicated in the Service and no further renewal is charged.

If you subscribe at an introductory price, the existing subscription continues at that price while it remains active and unchanged. A plan change or a new subscription may use the price available at that time; the applicable price is always shown before confirmation.

If a workspace exceeds the limits of a lower plan after a downgrade, existing content is not deleted, but creation or team features may remain restricted until usage is within that plan's limits.

The Service is provided on an "as available" basis. We aim to keep it reliable, but Free, Solo and Team plans do not include a guaranteed service level or uninterrupted availability.

We may maintain, improve, replace or discontinue parts of the Service. We will give reasonable advance notice where a material change would significantly reduce paid functionality, unless an urgent security, legal or operational reason makes advance notice impractical.

The Service, its software, design and branding belong to the Operator or its licensors. Your content remains yours, subject only to the limited licence in Section III.

You are responsible for keeping your own source code and business records backed up. The Service is not a password manager, source-code repository or sole archival system.

To the extent permitted by law, we are not liable for your content, third-party services, indirect or consequential business loss, or events outside our reasonable control. For business users, our total liability arising from the Service is limited to the amount paid for the Service during the preceding 12 months. These limitations do not apply where liability cannot legally be excluded or limited, including mandatory consumer rights.

If you own a workspace, you can download a structured, machine-readable (JSON) export of its data from account settings at any time, free of charge, without needing to end the account first — this includes products, versions, deployments, resources and customers entered into that workspace.

You may schedule account deletion in account settings. If you own a team workspace, you must first remove its other members. An active paid subscription is cancelled at the end of its current billing period.

Scheduled deletion can be undone before the deletion date. If you are a member of someone else's workspace, only your own account and membership are deleted; the workspace and its other data are unaffected. If you own a workspace, your account and the whole workspace are deleted together, permanently, after the 30-day recovery period or, for a paid workspace, after the current paid period ends if that is later. Limited copies may remain temporarily in rotating backups, and billing records may be kept where required by law. Further details are in the Privacy Policy.

We may end an inactive or discontinued account after reasonable notice, or suspend or end an account for a serious or repeated breach of these Terms.

Content that a workspace owner marks public, or submits through the API or embed, is displayed on that workspace's public About Page, API response or embed. If you believe such content is illegal, you can report it to [email protected]. Please include the exact URL or location of the content, why you consider it illegal, your name and email address, and a statement that your report is made in good faith.

We confirm receipt of a report without undue delay and, once reviewed, inform the reporter of our decision, the reasons for it, and the options available to challenge that decision. Where we remove or restrict content, or suspend or end an account, based on such a report or a suspected breach of these Terms, we give the affected workspace owner a statement of reasons and a chance to respond, except where legally prevented from doing so. If we become aware of content that reasonably suggests a threat to a person's life or safety, we may inform the relevant law enforcement authority.

We may update these Terms when the Service, our providers or applicable law changes. The current version and effective date are published on this page. We will give registered users reasonable advance notice of material changes by email or within the Service where appropriate or legally required. Clarifications and non-material changes may take effect when published.

These Terms are governed by Czech law. If you are a consumer, this does not take away mandatory rights available under the law of your country. Czech consumers may also seek out-of-court dispute resolution through the Czech Trade Inspection Authority (Česká obchodní inspekce, coi.cz).

These Terms are also available in Czech. Both versions carry the same meaning; if a discrepancy is found between them, the English version governs.
