Waggle

Terms of Service

Last Updated: July 7, 2026

1. Agreement to These Terms

These Terms of Service (“Terms”) are a legally binding agreement between you and Tidbix LLC, doing business as “Waggle” (“Tidbix,” “Waggle,” “we,” “us,” or “our”). These Terms govern your access to and use of the Waggle mobile and web applications, websites, and any related services, features, or content we offer (collectively, the “Service”).

By creating an account, accessing, or using the Service, you agree to be bound by these Terms and our Privacy Policy, which is incorporated by reference. If you do not agree, do not use the Service.

2. Who May Use Waggle; Children's Profiles

2.1 Parent Accounts. You must be at least 18 years old (or the age of majority in your jurisdiction) and legally capable of entering into a binding contract to create an account (“Parent Account”). By creating a Parent Account, you represent that you meet these requirements. All accounts on the Service are Parent Accounts; minors may not hold accounts of their own.

2.2 Child Profiles. The Service allows a Parent Account holder to create profiles for children under 18 in their household (“Child Profiles”). Child Profiles are not accounts; they exist within, and are controlled by, the Parent Account. By creating a Child Profile, you represent and warrant that:

  1. you are the parent or legal guardian of that child, or you have the verifiable consent of the child’s parent or legal guardian;
  2. you consent to the collection and use of the child’s information as described in our Privacy Policy, in accordance with the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (“COPPA”) and other applicable laws; and
  3. you are responsible for supervising the child’s use of the Service.

2.3 No accounts for minors. Individuals under 18 may use the Service only through a Child Profile created and managed by a Parent Account holder. If we learn that a minor has created an account directly, we will terminate the account, and, in the case of a child under 13, delete associated personal information as required by law.

3. Description of the Service

Waggle is a household chore and allowance management tool. Parents can create chore lists, assign chores to Child Profiles, approve completed chores, and track reward balances in a virtual ledger we call the “Honey Pot.”

3.1 The Honey Pot is a ledger, not money. The Honey Pot balance is a record-keeping tool that reflects amounts a Parent Account holder has chosen to credit to a Child Profile. Waggle does not hold, store, transmit, or transfer money or any monetary value. Honey Pot balances:

  1. are not deposits, bank accounts, stored value, or funds of any kind;
  2. are not insured by the FDIC, NCUA, or any government agency;
  3. have no cash value and are not redeemable through Waggle;
  4. represent only a private arrangement between the parent and child, which the Parent Account holder is solely responsible for honoring (or not) outside the Service; and
  5. may be adjusted, corrected, or reset by the Parent Account holder at any time.

Tidbix is not a bank, money transmitter, money services business, or financial institution, and does not provide banking, payment, investment, tax, or financial advisory services.

3.2 No professional advice. Any content in the Service relating to allowances, savings habits, or financial literacy is for general informational and educational purposes only and is not financial, legal, or tax advice.

4. Accounts and Security

4.1 You agree to provide accurate, current, and complete information when creating an account and to keep it updated.

4.2 You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your login credentials and any parent PIN or approval code, and for all activity that occurs under your account, including activity by children in your household. Notify us immediately at hello@tidbix.com of any unauthorized use.

4.3 We may suspend or terminate accounts that violate these Terms, as described in Section 12.

5. Fees, Subscriptions, and Billing

5.1 Free Service. The Service is currently offered free of charge. We reserve the right to introduce fees or paid features in the future; we will provide notice before any feature you use becomes paid.

5.2 Paid Subscriptions and Purchases. If we offer paid subscriptions or one-time purchases and you buy them, the following terms apply:

  1. Subscriptions automatically renew at the end of each billing period unless cancelled at least 24 hours before renewal.
  2. Purchases made through the Apple App Store or Google Play are billed and managed by those platforms and are subject to their terms; cancellations and refunds for those purchases must be handled through the applicable platform.
  3. Except as provided in Section 5.3 (Refunds), or where required by law or platform policy, payments are non-refundable, and we do not provide refunds or credits for partial subscription periods.
  4. We may change subscription pricing with at least 30 days’ notice; changes take effect at your next renewal.

5.3 Refunds. For any purchase you make directly through Waggle (for example, through our web checkout), rather than through the Apple App Store or Google Play:

  1. you may request a full refund within fourteen (14) days of the purchase date, for any reason, no questions asked, by emailing us at hello@tidbix.com. We will return the amount you paid for that purchase to your original payment method;
  2. after that fourteen (14) day period, all payments are non-refundable, and we do not provide refunds or credits for any unused or partial subscription period or for a one-time purchase (such as Waggle Forever), except where a refund is required by applicable law; and
  3. this 14-day policy does not apply to purchases made through the Apple App Store or Google Play, which are governed by the refund policies of the applicable platform, as described in Section 5.2.

6. License and Intellectual Property

6.1 Our license to you. Subject to these Terms, we grant you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to use the Service for personal, non-commercial household use.

6.2 Our intellectual property. The Service, including all software, designs, text, graphics, logos, the Waggle name, the Waggle bee character, trade dress, and all related intellectual property, is owned by Tidbix or its licensors and is protected by copyright, trademark, and other laws. Except for the license above, no rights are granted to you. You may not copy, modify, distribute, sell, lease, reverse engineer, or create derivative works of any part of the Service, except to the extent applicable law permits despite this restriction.

6.3 Feedback. If you send us ideas, suggestions, or feedback, you grant us a perpetual, irrevocable, worldwide, royalty-free license to use them without restriction or compensation.

7. User Content

7.1 The Service may allow you to submit content such as chore names, notes, avatars, photos, and profile information (“User Content”). You retain ownership of your User Content.

7.2 You grant Tidbix a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free license to host, store, reproduce, display, and process User Content solely as necessary to operate, provide, maintain, secure, and improve the Service, and as otherwise described in our Privacy Policy.

7.3 You represent that you have all rights necessary to submit your User Content and that it does not violate any law or the rights of any third party.

7.4 We do not pre-screen User Content but may remove any content that violates these Terms.

8. Acceptable Use

You agree not to, and not to permit any user of your account to:

  1. use the Service for any unlawful purpose or in violation of these Terms;
  2. use the Service to harass, abuse, or harm another person, including any child;
  3. attempt to gain unauthorized access to the Service, other users’ accounts, or our systems;
  4. probe, scan, or test the vulnerability of the Service, or breach any security or authentication measures;
  5. interfere with or disrupt the Service, including by transmitting malware or imposing an unreasonable load on our infrastructure;

  8. misrepresent your identity or your relationship to any child for whom you create a profile; or
  9. sublicense, sell, or commercially exploit the Service.

9. Third-Party Services

The Service may contain links to or integrations with third-party services (such as app stores or notification services). We do not control and are not responsible for third-party services, and your use of them is governed by their own terms and privacy policies.

10. Privacy

Our collection and use of personal information, including information relating to children, is described in our Privacy Policy. The Privacy Policy is incorporated into these Terms.

11. Modifications to the Service and These Terms

11.1 We may modify, suspend, or discontinue the Service or any feature at any time. Where reasonably practicable, we will give notice of material changes that adversely affect you.

11.2 We may update these Terms from time to time. If we make material changes, we will notify you by email, in-app notice, or other reasonable means at least 30 days before the changes take effect. Your continued use of the Service after the effective date constitutes acceptance. If you do not agree to updated Terms, you must stop using the Service and may delete your account.

12. Term and Termination

12.1 You may stop using the Service and delete your account at any time via in-app settings or by contacting hello@tidbix.com.

12.2 We may suspend or terminate your access to the Service at any time, with or without notice, if we reasonably believe you have violated these Terms, if required by law, or if we discontinue the Service. Where practicable and lawful, we will provide notice and an opportunity to export your data.

12.3 Upon termination: your license to use the Service ends; we may delete your account data in accordance with our Privacy Policy and data-retention practices; and Sections 3.1, 6, 7.2, and 13 through 18, together with any other provisions that by their nature should survive, will survive.

12.4 Honey Pot balances on termination. Because Honey Pot balances are private records between parent and child and not money held by Tidbix (Section 3.1), Tidbix has no obligation or liability with respect to any balance upon suspension, termination, or discontinuation of the Service. Parents are encouraged to record balances before deleting an account.

13. Disclaimers

THE SERVICE IS 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, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT. WITHOUT LIMITING THE FOREGOING, WE DO NOT WARRANT THAT THE SERVICE WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, ERROR-FREE, OR SECURE, THAT DATA (INCLUDING CHORE HISTORY OR HONEY POT BALANCES) WILL NOT BE LOST, OR THAT DEFECTS WILL BE CORRECTED. YOU ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR MAINTAINING YOUR OWN RECORDS OF ANY BALANCES OR ARRANGEMENTS BETWEEN YOU AND YOUR CHILD.

SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OF CERTAIN WARRANTIES, SO SOME OF THE ABOVE EXCLUSIONS MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.

14. Limitation of Liability

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW:

  1. NEITHER TIDBIX NOR ITS OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES, OR AGENTS WILL BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR FOR ANY LOSS OF DATA, LOSS OF GOODWILL, OR COST OF SUBSTITUTE SERVICES, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THE SERVICE OR THESE TERMS, EVEN IF ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES; AND
  2. TIDBIX’S TOTAL AGGREGATE LIABILITY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THE SERVICE OR THESE TERMS WILL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF (i) THE AMOUNTS YOU PAID TO TIDBIX FOR THE SERVICE IN THE TWELVE (12) MONTHS BEFORE THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM, OR (ii) FIFTY U.S. DOLLARS ($50).

NOTHING IN THESE TERMS EXCLUDES OR LIMITS LIABILITY THAT CANNOT BE EXCLUDED OR LIMITED UNDER APPLICABLE LAW.

15. Indemnification

You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Tidbix and its officers, directors, employees, and agents from and against any claims, damages, liabilities, costs, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) arising out of or relating to: (a) your User Content; (b) your violation of these Terms or applicable law; (c) your misrepresentation of parental or guardianship status; or (d) any dispute between you and any other member of your household regarding the Service or any Honey Pot balance.

16. Dispute Resolution; Arbitration; Class Action Waiver

16.1 Informal resolution first. Before filing a claim, you agree to contact us at hello@tidbix.com and attempt in good faith to resolve the dispute informally for at least 30 days.

16.2 Binding arbitration. Except as provided in Section 16.4, any dispute arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Service will be resolved by binding arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association under its Consumer Arbitration Rules, rather than in court. The arbitration will be conducted in Tarrant County, Texas or, at your election, by video conference or in the county where you live.

17. Governing Law and Venue

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Texas, without regard to conflict-of-laws principles. Subject to Section 16, any judicial proceeding will be brought exclusively in the state or federal courts located in Tarrant County, Texas, and the parties consent to personal jurisdiction and venue there.

18. General

18.1 Entire agreement. These Terms, together with the Privacy Policy and any additional terms for specific features, constitute the entire agreement between you and Tidbix regarding the Service.

18.2 Severability. If any provision is held unenforceable, it will be modified to the minimum extent necessary, and the remaining provisions will remain in full effect.

18.3 No waiver. Our failure to enforce any provision is not a waiver of our right to do so later.

18.4 Assignment. You may not assign these Terms without our prior written consent. We may assign these Terms in connection with a merger, acquisition, sale of assets, or by operation of law.

18.5 Force majeure. We are not liable for any delay or failure to perform resulting from causes outside our reasonable control.

18.6 Export and sanctions. You represent that you are not located in an embargoed country and are not on any U.S. government restricted-party list.

18.7 App platform terms. If you access the Service through an app distributed via the Apple App Store or Google Play, the applicable platform provider’s terms also apply. Apple and Google are not parties to these Terms and are not responsible for the Service.

18.8 Notices. We may provide notices via the Service, email, or push notification. Legal notices to Tidbix must be sent by email to hello@tidbix.comwith the subject line “Legal Notice.”
