Terms of Service
Kinto — Alpha
Last updated: 10 August 2026
1. Who we are
Kinto ("Kinto", "we", "us", "our") is operated by an individual based in New South Wales, Australia. These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your access to and use of the Kinto mobile application and related services (the "Service").
By creating an account, accessing, or using the Service, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use the Service.
2. Alpha / experimental software — no guarantees
The Service is pre-release, experimental "alpha" software provided for evaluation. You acknowledge and agree that:
- The Service is offered "as is" and "as available", with all faults, and without warranties of any kind.
- We make no promise that the Service will be available, uninterrupted, secure, error-free, or fit for any purpose.
- Features may change, break, be removed, or stop working at any time, without notice.
- Your data may be lost, corrupted, delayed, exposed, or deleted. You must not rely on the Service as a system of record or as your only copy of any information. Keep your own backups of anything important.
- We may modify, suspend, or discontinue the Service (in whole or in part), or terminate or delete your account and all associated data, at any time, for any reason or no reason, without notice and without liability.
- We are under no obligation to provide support, maintenance, updates, bug fixes, or continuity of the Service.
You participate in the alpha at your own risk and with full awareness of these limitations.
3. Eligibility and accounts
- You must be at least 16 years old and able to form a binding contract.
- Access is invitation-only and may be gated to whitelisted email addresses. We may grant, refuse, or revoke access at our sole discretion.
- You are responsible for your account credentials and for all activity under your account. Notify us promptly of any unauthorised use.
- Information you provide must be accurate. We may suspend or terminate accounts we believe violate these Terms.
4. The Service and AI features
- Kinto includes AI-generated content (chat responses, summaries, reminders, extracted tasks and notes, and similar). AI output may be inaccurate, incomplete, out of date, or inappropriate. It is generated automatically and is not professional advice of any kind (legal, medical, financial, or otherwise).
- You are solely responsible for reviewing and verifying AI output before relying on or acting on it. We are not responsible for decisions you make based on the Service.
- Voice notes and reflection recordings are processed by automated transcription and AI systems. Transcription and interpretation may be wrong.
- The Service may connect to or send content to third-party providers to function (see the Privacy Policy). Their availability and behaviour are outside our control.
5. Your content
- "Your Content" means the messages, voice recordings, transcripts, notes, tasks, images, profile information, and other material you submit to the Service.
- You retain ownership of Your Content.
- You grant us a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free, sublicensable licence to host, store, copy, process, transmit, display, and modify Your Content solely as needed to operate, provide, secure, debug, and improve the Service, including transmitting it to the third-party providers that power the Service.
- You represent that you have the rights to submit Your Content and that it does not infringe any third party's rights or any law. Where Your Content includes information about other people (e.g. household members), you confirm you are authorised to provide it.
- We may remove any content or restrict any use at our discretion.
6. Acceptable use
You agree not to:
- use the Service unlawfully, or to store or transmit unlawful, infringing, harmful, or abusive content;
- attempt to breach, probe, or circumvent security, access accounts or data that are not yours, or disrupt the Service;
- reverse engineer, scrape, or build a competing product from the Service, except where such restriction is prohibited by law;
- overload, abuse, or misuse AI or messaging features (including automated or high-volume use);
- resell, sublicense, or provide the Service to third parties without our written consent.
We may investigate and take any action we consider appropriate for suspected violations, including suspension or termination.
7. Fees
The alpha is currently provided free of charge. We may introduce fees, usage limits, or paid tiers at any time, and may stop offering the Service for free, on notice through the Service or by email.
8. Feedback
If you send us feedback, ideas, or suggestions, you grant us an unrestricted, perpetual, irrevocable, royalty-free right to use them for any purpose without obligation or compensation to you.
9. Third-party services
The Service relies on third-party providers (for AI, transcription, email, messaging, and hosting). We are not responsible for third-party services, their availability, or their acts or omissions. Your use of them may be subject to their own terms.
10. Disclaimer of warranties
To the maximum extent permitted by law, the Service and all content are provided "as is" and "as available" without warranties of any kind, whether express, implied, or statutory, including implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, title, accuracy, and non-infringement. We do not warrant that the Service will meet your requirements, be available or uninterrupted, be secure, or be free of errors, viruses, or data loss.
11. Limitation of liability
To the maximum extent permitted by law:
- We (and our owners, officers, employees, and suppliers) will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary, or punitive damages, or for any loss of data, profits, revenue, goodwill, or business, arising out of or relating to the Service, even if advised of the possibility.
- Our total aggregate liability for all claims relating to the Service is limited to the greater of (a) the total amount you paid us for the Service in the three (3) months before the event giving rise to the claim, or (b) AUD $20.
- These limitations apply regardless of the legal theory and even if a limited remedy fails of its essential purpose.
12. Indemnity
You will indemnify and hold us harmless from any claims, losses, liabilities, and expenses (including reasonable legal fees) arising from Your Content, your use of the Service, or your breach of these Terms or any law or third-party right.
13. Termination
You may stop using the Service at any time, and you may permanently delete your account and its associated content from within the app (Settings → Delete account); deletion is immediate and irreversible. We may suspend or terminate your access at any time, for any reason, without notice or liability. On termination, your right to use the Service ends, and we may delete Your Content. Sections that by their nature should survive (including ownership, licences, disclaimers, limitation of liability, indemnity, and governing law) survive termination.
14. Changes to these Terms
We may change these Terms at any time. Material changes will be indicated by updating the "Last updated" date and, where practicable, notifying you through the Service or by email. Your continued use after changes take effect constitutes acceptance. If you do not agree, stop using the Service.
15. Governing law and disputes
These Terms are governed by the laws of New South Wales, Australia, without regard to conflict-of-laws rules. You submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of that jurisdiction. To the extent permitted by law, you agree that any dispute will be resolved on an individual basis and waive any right to participate in a class or representative action.
16. Non-excludable rights
Nothing in these Terms excludes, restricts, or modifies any right or remedy, or any guarantee, warranty, or other term or condition, that cannot lawfully be excluded or limited (including consumer guarantees under the Australian Consumer Law). Where a guarantee cannot be excluded but we are permitted to limit our liability, our liability is limited, at our option, to re-supplying the Service or paying the cost of having it re-supplied.
17. General
- Entire agreement. These Terms and the Privacy Policy are the entire agreement between you and us regarding the Service.
- Severability. If any provision is unenforceable, the rest remain in effect and the provision is modified to the minimum extent necessary.
- No waiver. Our failure to enforce any provision is not a waiver.
- Assignment. You may not assign these Terms without our consent; we may assign them freely.
- No third-party beneficiaries.
