Terms of Service
Effective date: to be set before publication
Draft — requires owner and legal review
This is a plain-language template, not a finished agreement. Every placeholder below (dashed amber text) must be replaced, and the whole document reviewed — by a lawyer where appropriate — before it is published. Nothing here is legal advice.
Who provides Focus
Focus (“Focus”, “we”) is a Chrome extension for RSVP reading, operated by [legal business name], located in [jurisdiction]. This website provides information, policies, and support for the extension; there are no accounts or reading features on the website itself.
What these terms cover
These terms govern your use of the Focus Chrome extension and any related subscription. Installing Focus also means agreeing to the terms of the Chrome Web Store, and signing in means following Google’s terms for your Google account.
If you subscribe to Focus, payments are processed by Stripe under Stripe’s own terms.
Your account
Focus uses Google sign-in for account identity. You are responsible for keeping your Google account secure and for the activity that happens through it in Focus.
Acceptable use
When using Focus, you agree not to:
- use Focus for any unlawful purpose;
- attempt to circumvent usage limits, payment, or license checks;
- interfere with or disrupt the operation of the service or its backend;
- use automated tools to abuse the service or create accounts in violation of Google’s or the Chrome Web Store’s terms.
You stay responsible for the text you choose to read with Focus and for complying with the rights of others in that text.
Subscriptions, billing, and cancellation
Focus is free to use up to 50,000 words per month. The optional Supporter plan provides unlimited monthly reading, with the same product features as the free plan. The available prices are $4.99 per month or $29.99 per year. If you subscribe:
- payments are billed through Stripe;
- your subscription renews at the selected monthly or yearly interval until you cancel;
- you can cancel at any time through the billing management link in Focus settings, and your unlimited allowance remains active until the end of the current billing period;
- [describe the refund policy — none stated here yet]
Focus does not store your payment details. Payments — including disputes and chargebacks — are handled by Stripe.
Monthly reading usage
The free plan includes up to 50,000 words per month. The Supporter plan has unlimited monthly reading. Usage is measured in words read per calendar month. Usage accounting reports word counts and the identifiers needed to process them — not the text you read.
When the free monthly limit is reached, reading pauses. It can resume when the allowance resets or a Supporter subscription becomes active.
Service availability and changes
Focus is provided as-is. We do not promise that it will be uninterrupted or error-free, and we may change, limit, or discontinue parts of the service over time. Extension updates are delivered through the Chrome Web Store.
If something in the service changes in a way that materially affects your subscription, we will communicate that through the extension, the Chrome Web Store listing, or this website.
Intellectual property
The Focus name, extension, and website are owned by [legal business name]. Text you read with Focus belongs to its authors or rightsholders; these terms give you no rights over it, and Focus gives you none beyond reading it.
Disclaimers
To the maximum extent permitted by law, Focus is provided without warranties of any kind, whether express or implied, including any implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement.
Limitation of liability
To the maximum extent permitted by law, [legal business name] will not be liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or for any loss of data, profits, or reading content, arising from your use of Focus.
Some jurisdictions do not allow certain limitations in this section. The enforceability of these terms is governed by the law of [jurisdiction].
Ending these terms
You can stop using Focus and delete your account at any time. We may suspend or terminate access if these terms are violated. The sections that should survive ending these terms — like intellectual property and limitation of liability — do.
Changes to these terms
We may update these terms over time. The effective date above will change, and significant changes will be communicated through the extension or this website. Continued use of Focus after a change means you accept the updated terms.
