Terms of Service

Effective date: August 13, 2026

1. Acceptance of Terms

By downloading, installing, or using the Tapski mobile application ("App"), you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service ("Terms"). If you do not agree to these Terms, do not use the App.

These Terms constitute a legally binding agreement between you and Tapski ("we," "our," or "us"). We reserve the right to modify these Terms at any time. Your continued use of the App after changes are posted constitutes acceptance of the updated Terms.

2. Description of Service

Tapski is a habit-tracking application for iOS that allows you to:

  • Create and manage personal habits with customisable goals.
  • Link NFC (Near Field Communication) tags to habits for instant logging by tapping your iPhone.
  • Order a physical Tapski starter kit of NFC tags from inside the App, paid through Stripe or Apple Pay and shipped to a U.S. address.
  • View habit completion history, streaks, and a dynamic habit score.
  • Participate in an optional global leaderboard and friend features.
  • Sync your data to the cloud for backup and cross-session persistence.

3. Eligibility

You must be at least 13 years of age to use the App. If you are under 18, you represent that your parent or legal guardian has reviewed and agreed to these Terms on your behalf. Purchases of the starter kit must be made by, or with the permission of, a person who can form a binding contract. By using the App, you represent and warrant that you meet these eligibility requirements.

4. Account & Authentication

You create a Tapski account in the App. During onboarding you may sign in with Apple. We use that Apple identity, together with the profile information you enter, to keep your account, habits, and orders associated with you.

You are responsible for maintaining the security of the device on which the App is installed and of any Apple ID used to sign in. We are not responsible for unauthorised access that results from your failure to secure your device or Apple ID.

5. Starter Kit Purchases & Shipping

Tapski sells a physical NFC tag starter kit from inside the App. The current kit price is shown at checkout before you pay. Unless we state otherwise in the App, the kit includes three Tapski tags and ships to addresses in the United States only.

  • Checkout is processed by Stripe. You may pay with a supported card or Apple Pay. Apple does not sell the kit through In-App Purchase.
  • You agree that the shipping name, address, and email you submit are accurate. We are not responsible for delays or non-delivery caused by an incorrect address.
  • After a successful payment we email an order confirmation, then a shipping update when the kit is sent.
  • Delivery times are estimates only. Risk of loss passes to you when the carrier has the package.
  • If you need a refund, replacement, or help with an order, contact support@tapski.app. Refunds for physical goods are handled by Tapski, not by Apple.

6. User Conduct

When using Tapski, you agree not to:

  • Use the App for any unlawful or prohibited purpose.
  • Choose usernames or display names that are offensive, vulgar, threatening, or that impersonate another person or entity.
  • Attempt to interfere with, compromise, or disrupt the App or its servers, networks, or databases.
  • Reverse engineer, decompile, disassemble, or otherwise attempt to derive the source code of the App.
  • Use automated scripts, bots, or other means to artificially inflate habit scores, manipulate the leaderboard, or abuse checkout.
  • Upload or transmit viruses, malware, or other harmful code.
  • Exploit NFC functionality for any purpose other than its intended use within the App.

We reserve the right to suspend or terminate your account and remove your data from the leaderboard if you violate these Terms.

7. NFC Tags & Hardware

Tapski lets you read and write data to NFC tags for habit-logging. You acknowledge that:

  • You may order official Tapski tags from inside the App, or use compatible third-party NFC tags. We are not responsible for the quality, compatibility, or durability of third-party tags.
  • Only a small habit identifier is written to each tag. No personal information is stored on the tags.
  • You should not write Tapski data to NFC tags you do not own or have permission to modify.
  • NFC functionality requires a compatible iPhone model. We do not guarantee NFC functionality on all devices.

8. Leaderboard & Public Information

Tapski includes an optional global leaderboard and friend features. By using the App, you acknowledge that the following information may be visible to other Tapski users:

  • Your chosen display name and username.
  • Your selected avatar image.
  • Your habit score and total number of completed habits.

Habit names, completion dates, shipping addresses, and payment details are not shown on the public leaderboard.

9. Intellectual Property

All content, features, functionality, design, graphics, logos, and trademarks within the App are owned by Tapski and are protected by applicable intellectual property laws. You may not copy, modify, distribute, sell, or lease any part of the App without our prior written consent.

You retain ownership of any content you create within the App (such as habit names and emoji labels). By using the cloud sync feature, you grant us a limited licence to store, process, and transmit your content solely for the purpose of providing the service.

10. Third-Party Services

The App integrates with the following third-party services:

  • Supabase — authentication, data storage, and sync.
  • Apple — Sign In with Apple, push notifications, and Apple Pay.
  • Stripe — payment processing for starter-kit orders.
  • Resend — transactional order and shipping emails.
  • PostHog — product analytics and error tracking.
  • DiceBear — generating avatar images during onboarding.

These services are governed by their own terms of service and privacy policies. We are not responsible for the practices of third-party service providers. Your use of the App is also subject to the Apple Licensed Application End User Licence Agreement (Standard EULA).

11. Data & Privacy

Your use of the App is also governed by our Privacy Policy, which describes how we collect, use, and protect your information. By using the App, you consent to the practices described in the Privacy Policy.

12. Account Termination & Data Deletion

You may delete your account at any time through the Settings screen in the App. Upon account deletion:

  • Cloud-stored profile, habits, completions, and scores will be deleted from our servers.
  • Locally stored data on your device will be cleared.
  • Your entry will be removed from the leaderboard.
  • Payment records may be retained as required for tax, accounting, or legal purposes.

We may also suspend or terminate your access to the App at any time, without prior notice, for conduct that we determine violates these Terms or is harmful to other users, us, or third parties.

13. Disclaimers

The App is provided on an "AS IS" and "AS AVAILABLE" basis without warranties of any kind, either express or implied, including but not limited to:

  • Implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, or non-infringement.
  • That the App will be uninterrupted, error-free, secure, or free of viruses or other harmful components.
  • That the results obtained from the use of the App will be accurate or reliable.
  • That starter-kit delivery dates are guaranteed.

Tapski is a habit-tracking tool and does not provide medical, health, fitness, or psychological advice. You should consult qualified professionals for such guidance.

14. Limitation of Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, in no event shall Tapski, its developers, affiliates, or licensors be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, including but not limited to loss of data, loss of profits, or loss of goodwill, arising out of or in connection with your use of the App or any starter-kit order, whether based on warranty, contract, tort (including negligence), or any other legal theory, even if we have been advised of the possibility of such damages.

Our total aggregate liability for all claims arising from or related to the App shall not exceed the amount you paid to Tapski for the App or starter kit (if any) in the twelve (12) months preceding the event giving rise to the claim.

15. Indemnification

You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Tapski and its developers from and against any claims, liabilities, damages, losses, and expenses (including reasonable legal fees) arising out of or in connection with:

  • Your use or misuse of the App.
  • Your violation of these Terms.
  • Your violation of any rights of another party.
  • Your use of NFC tags in a manner inconsistent with these Terms.

16. App Store Terms

The App is distributed through the Apple App Store. You acknowledge and agree that:

  • These Terms are between you and Tapski only, not with Apple Inc. ("Apple"). Tapski, not Apple, is solely responsible for the App, starter-kit sales, and related content.
  • Apple has no obligation to provide any maintenance or support services for the App.
  • In the event of any failure of the App to conform to any applicable warranty, you may notify Apple and Apple will refund the purchase price of the App itself (if any). Starter-kit refunds are handled by Tapski. To the maximum extent permitted by law, Apple has no other warranty obligation with respect to the App.
  • Apple is not responsible for addressing any claims by you or a third party relating to the App or your use of the App, including product liability, legal compliance, or intellectual property claims.
  • Apple and its subsidiaries are third-party beneficiaries of these Terms. Upon your acceptance of these Terms, Apple will have the right to enforce these Terms against you as a third-party beneficiary.
  • You must comply with all applicable third-party terms of agreement when using the App (e.g. your wireless data service agreement).

17. Governing Law

These Terms shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the United States and the State of California, without regard to conflict-of-law principles. Any disputes arising from these Terms or the App shall be resolved exclusively in the courts located in the State of California.

18. Severability

If any provision of these Terms is found to be unenforceable or invalid, that provision shall be limited or eliminated to the minimum extent necessary so that the remaining Terms shall remain in full force and effect.

19. Entire Agreement

These Terms, together with our Privacy Policy, constitute the entire agreement between you and Tapski regarding the use of the App and supersede all prior agreements and understandings.
