Terms of Service

CostPad — Calculator for Quick Totals

Last updated: March 2026

1. Acceptance of Terms

By creating a calculator or using CostPad beyond the demo mode, you agree to these Terms of Service. If you do not agree, do not use the app beyond demo mode.

2. Description of Service

CostPad is a browser-based tap-and-tally calculator designed for anyone who needs a quick total — market stalls, food trucks, craft fairs, bake sales, and more. It is a Progressive Web App (PWA) that runs entirely on your device.

• All data is stored locally in your browser's localStorage.
• There are no user accounts, cloud sync, or server-side storage.
• The service may be updated, modified, or discontinued at any time without prior notice.

3. Acceptable Use

You agree to use CostPad only for lawful purposes. You may not:

• Use the service for any illegal or fraudulent activity.
• Attempt to interfere with, disrupt, or reverse-engineer the service.
• Use embeddable calculators to host misleading, deceptive, or illegal content.
• Misrepresent your affiliation with CostPad or imply endorsement.

4. Embeddable Calculators

CostPad allows you to generate embeddable calculator widgets for use on third-party websites. By using this feature:

• You are solely responsible for the content and pricing displayed in your embed.
• Embeds must include the "Powered by CostPad" attribution. Removing or hiding this attribution is not permitted.
• We reserve the right to modify or discontinue the embed feature at any time.
• We are not responsible for how embeds are displayed or function on third-party websites.

5. Payments and Pro Features

CostPad offers optional paid features (such as ad removal) through LemonSqueezy, a third-party payment processor.

• All purchases are one-time payments and are non-refundable unless required by applicable law.
• Pro status is stored locally on your device. Clearing your browser data may require you to restore your purchase.
• We do not store or have access to your payment information.

6. Data and Privacy

Your use of CostPad is also governed by our Privacy Policy. In summary:

• All business data stays on your device.
• We do not collect, transmit, or have access to your register data.
• You are responsible for backing up your own data. We cannot recover lost data.

7. Disclaimer of Warranties

CostPad is provided "as is" and "as available" without warranties of any kind, whether express or implied, including but not limited to:

• Accuracy of calculations or totals.
• Fitness for a particular business purpose.
• Uninterrupted or error-free operation.
• Compatibility with all devices or browsers.

You acknowledge that CostPad is a calculator tool and should not be used as the sole record of financial transactions. Always maintain independent records for your business.

8. Limitation of Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, CostPad and its developer(s) shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, including but not limited to:

• Loss of revenue, profits, or business.
• Loss of data due to browser clearing, device failure, or any other cause.
• Errors in pricing or calculations.
• Any damages arising from the use or inability to use the service.

9. Intellectual Property

All content, code, design, and branding of CostPad are the property of CostPad and are protected by applicable intellectual property laws. You may not copy, modify, or distribute any part of CostPad without written permission, except as expressly permitted by these terms (e.g., embedding calculators on your website).

10. Termination

We reserve the right to restrict or terminate access to CostPad for any user who violates these terms. Since CostPad is a client-side application, "termination" may include blocking access to hosted resources such as the embed feature or future updates.

11. Changes to These Terms

We may update these terms from time to time. Changes will be reflected on this page with an updated date. Continued use of CostPad after changes constitutes acceptance of the revised terms.

12. Governing Law

These terms are governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the jurisdiction in which CostPad operates, without regard to conflict of law principles.
