1. Agreement
These Terms of Use ("Terms") are an agreement between you and Appventure, operating under its Techtangle brand ("we", "us"). They apply to the Child360 parent app (com.child360.parental.control.screentime.family.aile), the Child360 Child app (com.child360.child), their iOS versions and the related website (together, the "Service").
By installing or using the Service you accept these Terms. If you do not accept them, do not install or use the Service.
2. The Service
The Service lets a parent or legal guardian ("Parent") view reports about how much time a child ("Child") spends in apps on the Child's device. The Child app collects app usage statistics, the list of installed apps and basic device information and sends them to the Parent accounts paired with it. The data collected is described in full in our Privacy Policy.
The Service does not read messages, calls, contacts, photos, location, keystrokes, browsing history, microphone or camera data, Depending on the version and platform, the Service may also offer tools such as app time limits or restrictions. The features available to you are those shown in the app at the time, and we may add, change or remove features.
3. Who may use the Service
- Parent app. You must be at least 18 years old, or the age of majority in your country if higher, and have a supported account (such as a Google account) to sign in.
- Child app. The Child app may be installed only on a device used by a child for whom you are the parent or legal guardian, or on a device of a person who has agreed to share their screen time with you.
- You are responsible for keeping your Google account and the devices you use secure. You are responsible for activity carried out through your account.
4. Consent and parental responsibility
- The Service is consent-based. The Child app cannot be installed secretly. During setup, the Child sees a consent screen explaining which data will be shared and must confirm it.
- While the Child app is active, a notification that cannot be dismissed is shown on the Child's device stating that screen time is shared with the family.
- The apps are paired using a 6-digit code generated in the Parent app and entered on the Child's device. Each code is valid for 10 minutes and can be used only once. A Child's device can be paired with more than one Parent account, for example both parents. Each Parent is responsible for their own use of the Service.
- For a child who is a minor, you confirm that you are the parent or legal guardian and have the legal authority to set up this monitoring. Installing and pairing the Child app is your responsibility. We do not verify your identity, age or relationship to the Child and rely on your confirmation.
- You agree to explain to the Child, in a way suitable for their age, what the Service does.
- You are responsible for complying with the laws that apply to you when you use the Service, including laws on privacy and on the rights of children.
5. Prohibited use
You must not:
- install or use the Child app on a device without the knowledge of the person who uses it;
- install the Child app on the device of an adult without that adult's express agreement, including a partner, spouse, employee or tenant;
- install the Child app on a device you do not own or have no legal right to set up;
- hide, disable or interfere with the consent screen, the permanent notification or the unpairing function;
- use the Service to stalk, harass, intimidate or harm any person;
- copy, modify, decompile, reverse engineer or create derivative works of the Service, except to the extent that applicable law expressly allows this;
- access or attempt to access data of devices that are not paired with your account, or interfere with our servers or security measures;
- resell, rent or sublicense the Service;
- use the Service in breach of any applicable law.
Breach of this section is a material breach of these Terms. We may suspend or close the account immediately and, where the law requires it, report the matter to the competent authorities.
6. The Child's rights in the Service
- The Child can unpair the Child app at any time. When the Child unpairs, data sending stops and the paired Parents are notified.
- The Child, or anyone whose data is processed through the Service, can contact us at hello@techtangle.site to ask questions or exercise their privacy rights.
- You agree not to penalise or threaten the Child for exercising these rights.
7. Fees and subscriptions
Some features of the Service may be free and others may require a paid subscription or in-app purchase. Prices, features and any free trial are shown in the app and in the app store before you buy, and may change. Price changes do not affect a subscription period you have already paid for.
Purchases are processed by Google Play or the Apple App Store under their terms. Subscriptions renew automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period in your app store account settings. Deleting the app or your account does not cancel a subscription. If a free trial is offered, it converts to a paid subscription at the end of the trial unless you cancel at least 24 hours before it ends. Refunds are handled by the app store under its refund policy, without affecting your statutory consumer rights. We do not issue refunds directly.
8. Licence
Subject to these Terms, we grant you a personal, limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable licence to install and use the apps on devices that you own or control, for your personal and family, non-commercial use.
9. Intellectual property
The Service, including its software, design, text, graphics and the names Child360 and Aile360, belongs to us or our licensors and is protected by intellectual property laws. These Terms do not transfer any ownership rights to you. App names and icons shown in reports belong to their respective owners.
10. Privacy
Our Privacy Policy explains what data we collect, why, how long we keep it and what rights you have. It forms part of these Terms.
11. Third-party services
The Service uses Google Sign-In and Google Firebase, and it is distributed through Google Play (and in future the Apple App Store). Your use of those services is also governed by their own terms. We are not responsible for third-party services that we do not control.
12. Accuracy and availability
- Usage figures come from the Android operating system of the Child's device. They may be incomplete or delayed if the device is off, offline, in battery-saving mode, if usage access is turned off, or if the operating system reports usage differently.
- We aim to keep the Service available but do not guarantee uninterrupted operation. We may carry out maintenance, change or remove features. We will give reasonable notice of changes that materially reduce the Service for paying users.
- The Service is a tool to support conversations within the family. It is not a safety, emergency or child protection service, and it does not replace parental supervision.
- You are solely responsible for how you interpret the reports and for any decision or action you take based on them.
13. Disclaimer of warranties
To the extent permitted by law, the Service is provided "as is" and "as available", without warranties of any kind, whether express or implied, including warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose and non-infringement. Nothing in these Terms limits warranties or rights that cannot be excluded under the consumer protection law of your country.
14. Limitation of liability
To the extent permitted by law, we are not liable for indirect, incidental, special or consequential damages, or for loss of data, profits or goodwill arising from the use of the Service. Our total liability for all claims relating to the Service is limited to the greater of (a) the amount you paid for the Service in the 12 months before the claim and (b) USD 50.
These limits do not apply to liability for death or personal injury caused by our negligence, for fraud or gross negligence, or to any other liability that cannot be limited under applicable law.
15. Indemnity
To the extent permitted by law, you agree to compensate us for claims, losses and reasonable legal costs arising from your use of the Service, your breach of these Terms or of any applicable law, including installing the Child app without the required knowledge, consent or legal authority, and from any claim brought by the Child or another person in connection with your use of the Service.
16. Suspension and termination
- You can stop using the Service at any time by deleting your account in the Parent app or on our account deletion page and uninstalling the apps. Uninstalling alone does not delete your account.
- We may suspend or close your account if you breach these Terms, if the law requires it, or if we stop providing the Service. Where reasonably possible, and except in cases of breach or legal obligation, we will notify you in advance.
- When an account is closed, data is deleted as described in the Privacy Policy.
- Sections 9, 13, 14, 15, 18 and 20 survive termination.
17. Changes to these Terms
We may update these Terms. We will change the "Last updated" date and notify you in the app or by email at least 15 days before a material change takes effect. Continuing to use the Service after the change takes effect means you accept the new Terms. If you do not agree to the new Terms, you can delete your account before the change takes effect.
18. Governing law and disputes
These Terms are governed by the laws of the Republic of Türkiye. The courts and enforcement offices of İstanbul (Central) have jurisdiction. If you are a consumer, you keep the protection of the mandatory laws of the country where you live and may bring proceedings in the courts of that country. Consumers in Türkiye may apply to the Consumer Arbitration Committees or Consumer Courts within the limits set by Law No. 6502. EU consumers may also use their national consumer dispute bodies.
