1. Acceptance of terms
By installing or using DraftAlert ("Service," "we," "us," "our"), you agree to these Terms of Service ("Terms"). If you don't agree, don't use the Service. These Terms apply to all users, including free and paid subscribers.
2. Description of service
DraftAlert is a Gmail Add-on that monitors your Gmail drafts and sends you configurable reminders about unsent emails. The Service operates as a Google Workspace Add-on and requires you to authorize access to your Gmail account via OAuth 2.0.
DraftAlert accesses your Gmail account solely to read draft metadata (not content) and to deliver reminders by re-applying inbox labels. See our Privacy Policy for full details on data handling.
3. Eligibility
You must be at least 13 years old to use DraftAlert. By using the Service, you represent that you meet this requirement and have the authority to agree to these Terms. If you are using DraftAlert on behalf of an organization, you represent that you have authority to bind that organization.
4. Your account and Google authorization
DraftAlert uses Google OAuth to access your Gmail account. You are responsible for:
- Maintaining the security of your Google account
- All activity that occurs under your authorization
- Promptly revoking access if you believe your account has been compromised
You may revoke DraftAlert's access at any time via your Google Account permissions page or from within the DraftAlert settings.
5. Acceptable use
You agree not to use DraftAlert to:
- Access Gmail accounts you do not own or have explicit permission to manage
- Violate any applicable laws or regulations
- Interfere with or disrupt the Service or its infrastructure
- Attempt to reverse-engineer, decompile, or extract source code from the Service
- Resell, sublicense, or commercially exploit the Service without our written permission
- Circumvent usage limits or access controls
We reserve the right to suspend or terminate access for any violation of these terms.
6. Free and paid plans
DraftAlert offers a free tier with usage limits and paid subscription plans with expanded features. Plan details, including draft limits and available reminder methods, are described on our pricing page.
Paid subscriptions are billed in advance on a monthly or annual basis. Fees are non-refundable except as required by applicable law or as stated in our refund policy. We may change pricing with 30 days' notice to active subscribers.
7. Intellectual property
The Service, including its software, design, and documentation, is owned by DraftAlert and protected by intellectual property laws. These Terms do not grant you any rights to our trademarks, logos, or branding.
You retain ownership of all data in your Gmail account. By using the Service, you grant us a limited license to access and process your data solely to provide the reminders you've configured.
8. Privacy
Our Privacy Policy describes how we collect, use, and protect your data. It is incorporated into these Terms by reference. By using the Service, you agree to our data practices as described in the Privacy Policy.
9. Disclaimer of warranties
DraftAlert is provided "as is" and "as available" without warranties of any kind, express or implied. We do not warrant that:
- The Service will be uninterrupted, error-free, or available at all times
- Reminders will be delivered at the exact scheduled time in all cases
- The Service will meet your specific requirements
Email reminders are best-effort. DraftAlert is a productivity tool, not a guaranteed delivery system. We are not responsible for missed business opportunities, relationships, or losses caused by unsent or undelivered reminders.
10. Limitation of liability
To the maximum extent permitted by law, DraftAlert and its operators shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, including loss of profits, data, or business opportunities, arising from your use of or inability to use the Service.
Our total liability for any claims arising from these Terms or your use of the Service shall not exceed the amount you paid to DraftAlert in the 12 months preceding the claim, or $100, whichever is greater.
11. Indemnification
You agree to indemnify and hold DraftAlert harmless from any claims, damages, or expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising from your use of the Service, your violation of these Terms, or your violation of any third-party rights.
12. Modifications to the service and terms
We may modify or discontinue the Service (or any part of it) at any time. We may update these Terms from time to time. Material changes will be communicated by updating the effective date and, where appropriate, by email to active subscribers. Continued use of the Service after changes constitutes acceptance of the updated Terms.
13. Termination
You may stop using the Service and delete your data at any time from within the DraftAlert settings. We may suspend or terminate your access for violation of these Terms. Upon termination, your license to use the Service ends and we will delete your data per our Privacy Policy.
14. Governing law
These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of California, without regard to conflict of law principles. Any disputes arising from these Terms shall be resolved in the courts of San Francisco County, California.
15. Entire agreement
These Terms, together with our Privacy Policy, constitute the entire agreement between you and DraftAlert regarding the Service and supersede any prior agreements.
