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.
2.1 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:
Where the Service collects personal information from a child under 13, Tidbix will obtain verifiable parental consent from the Parent Account holder through a method permitted under the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (“COPPA”) before that collection, as further described in our Privacy Policy. Tidbix will obtain separate verifiable parental consent before disclosing a child’s personal information to any third party (for example, for third-party advertising), except where COPPA permits disclosure without such consent. As the Parent Account holder, you may review your child’s personal information, refuse to permit its further collection or use, and request its deletion, as described in our Privacy Policy.
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.
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:
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.
4.1 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.
5.1 Free trial; paid Service. Waggle is a paid service with a free trial. Every new household receives a thirty (30)-day, full-featured trial that starts when the household is created. No payment method is required for the trial, and the trial does not automatically convert into a paid subscription or result in any charge. When the trial ends, continued full use of the Service requires a paid plan: a recurring subscription (“Waggle Plus”) or a one-time purchase (“Waggle Forever”). If you do not purchase a plan, your household becomes read-only — your family’s history and balances remain visible, but new activity (adding chores, recording completions, moving balances, and interest) is paused until a plan is active. We never delete your data for non-payment, and you may permanently delete your household at any time as described in Section 12.
5.2 Paid Subscriptions and Purchases. The following terms apply to paid plans:
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:
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.
7.1 The Service may allow you to submit content such as chore names, notes, avatars, 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.
7.5 Copyright complaints. If you believe content on the Service infringes your copyright, send a written notice containing the information required by the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (“DMCA”), 17 U.S.C. § 512(c)(3), to our designated agent at legal@tidbix.com with the subject line “DMCA Notice.” We will respond to valid notices in accordance with the DMCA, may remove or disable access to allegedly infringing content, and may terminate the accounts of repeat infringers.
You agree not to, and not to permit any user of your account to:
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.
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.
11.1 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.
12.1 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.
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.
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW:
NOTHING IN THESE TERMS EXCLUDES OR LIMITS LIABILITY THAT CANNOT BE EXCLUDED OR LIMITED UNDER APPLICABLE LAW.
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.
16.1 Informal resolution first. Before filing a claim, you agree to contact us at legal@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.
16.3 Class action waiver.
ALL CLAIMS MUST BE BROUGHT IN THE PARTIES’ INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS, COLLECTIVE, OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING.
16.4 Exceptions. Either party may (a) bring an individual claim in small claims court, or (b) seek injunctive relief in court for infringement or misuse of intellectual property.
16.5 Opt-out. You may opt out of this arbitration agreement by emailing legal@tidbix.com within 30 days of first accepting these Terms, stating your name, account email, and intent to opt out.
16.6 Severability of this Section. If the class action waiver in Section 16.3 is found to be unenforceable as to any particular claim, then that claim (and only that claim) will be severed from arbitration and brought exclusively in the courts identified in Section 17, and the remainder of this Section 16 will continue to apply to all other claims. Except as stated in the preceding sentence, if any other part of this Section 16 is found unenforceable, the remainder of this Section 16 will remain in full force and effect.
The Service is directed to and intended for users located in the United States, and we make no representation that the Service is appropriate or available for use outside the United States. 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.
18.1 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 legal@tidbix.com with the subject line “Legal Notice.”
Questions about these Terms may be sent to hello@tidbix.com.
