TERMS OF SERVICE
Legal Agreement
ACCEPTANCE OF TERMS
By accessing and using Ding-Dong, you accept and agree to be bound by the terms and provisions of this agreement. If you do not agree to these Terms of Service, please do not use this application.
USE LICENSE
Permission is granted to temporarily use Ding-Dong for personal, non-commercial purposes. This is the grant of a license, not a transfer of title. Under this license you may not: modify or copy the materials, use the materials for any commercial purpose, attempt to decompile or reverse engineer any software contained in Ding-Dong, remove any copyright or proprietary notations, or transfer the materials to another person.
USER DATA & PRIVACY
You retain all rights to your data created within Ding-Dong including notes, tasks, events, and plans. We collect and store this data to provide the service. Your data is private and will not be shared with third parties without your explicit consent. See our Privacy Policy for detailed information.
AI ASSISTANT USAGE
The Ding-Dong AI assistant is provided to enhance your productivity experience. By using the assistant, you agree that conversations may be processed to improve functionality. The assistant's responses are generated automatically and should not be considered professional advice. You are responsible for verifying any information or suggestions provided by the assistant.
CO-CREDITS & SUBSCRIPTION PLANS
Ding-Dong operates on a CO-CREDITS economy. New users must claim the free Buddy Plan to receive their initial 50,000 CO-CREDITS before accessing credit-consuming features. Subscription plans (Buddy, Companion, Productivity) define your monthly CO-CREDITS allocation and the set of features available to you. CO-CREDITS are consumed with every feature action. Credits do not roll over between billing cycles. Unused credits expire at cycle end.
PLAN FEATURES & RESTRICTIONS
The Buddy (free) plan includes access to Focus Timer, Notes, Planner, Checklist, Habits, Agenda, and Ding-Dong Chat features. Buddy plan users are blocked from: Analytics, Productivity Report, and Voice Chat. Attempting to access these features will display an Upgrade Plan dialog. Companion and Productivity plans unlock all features. Plan restrictions are enforced in-app and may change with notice.
CO-CREDITS TOP-UP & BONUSES
Users may purchase additional CO-CREDITS bundles from the in-app CO-CREDITS store at any time. Top-up bundles are one-time purchases and do not automatically renew. A 500 CO-CREDITS bonus is awarded upon completing a 7-consecutive-day check-in streak; this bonus is credited directly to your total balance. Bonus credits and purchased credits are subject to the same expiry rules as plan credits.
CREDIT DEPLETION & BLOCKING
When your CO-CREDITS balance reaches zero, credit-consuming features will be temporarily blocked. A CO-CREDITS Depleted dialog will appear. You may top-up additional credits at any time to restore access. Features that do not consume credits (reading notes, viewing calendar) remain accessible regardless of balance. Ding-Dong is not responsible for any impact caused by credit depletion during critical tasks.
TIMER & FOCUS FEATURES
The timer, stopwatch, and alarm features are tools for time management. While we strive for accuracy, Ding-Dong is not responsible for any missed notifications or timing discrepancies. Users should not rely solely on these features for critical time-sensitive tasks.
NOTES & CONTENT STORAGE
You are responsible for maintaining appropriate backups of your notes and content. While we implement measures to protect data integrity, Ding-Dong is not liable for data loss due to technical issues, user error, or force majeure events. We recommend periodic exports of your data.
CALENDAR & EVENT MANAGEMENT
Calendar events and agenda items are for organizational purposes. Ding-Dong does not guarantee reminder delivery and should not be used as the sole method for critical appointment management.
PLANNER & TASK TRACKING
The planner feature assists in goal tracking and task management. Auto-completion of tasks based on estimated finish times is a convenience feature. Users are responsible for manually verifying task completion and managing deadlines.
INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY
All intellectual property rights in Ding-Dong, including but not limited to design, functionality, code, graphics, and the Ding-Dong name and logo, are owned by Uriah Samuel. Unauthorized use, reproduction, or distribution is prohibited.
DISCLAIMER
Ding-Dong is provided 'as is' without warranties of any kind, either express or implied. We do not warrant that the application will be uninterrupted, error-free, or free from harmful components. Your use of Ding-Dong is at your sole risk.
LIMITATION OF LIABILITY
In no event shall Ding-Dong or its creator be liable for any damages including, without limitation, direct, indirect, incidental, punitive, or consequential damages arising out of your use or inability to use the application.
ACCOUNT TERMINATION
We reserve the right to terminate or suspend access to Ding-Dong immediately, without prior notice, for conduct that we believe violates these Terms of Service or is harmful to other users, us, or third parties, or for any other reason.
MODIFICATIONS
Ding-Dong reserves the right to modify these Terms of Service at any time. Continued use of the application after changes constitutes acceptance of the new terms. We will make reasonable efforts to notify users of significant changes.
GOVERNING LAW
These terms shall be governed and construed in accordance with applicable laws, without regard to its conflict of law provisions. Any disputes arising from these terms or your use of Ding-Dong shall be resolved through appropriate legal channels.
