Stint Terms of Service

Last Updated: June 26, 2026

PLEASE READ THESE TERMS CAREFULLY. They contain a binding individual arbitration clause and class-action waiver (Section 22) that affect your legal rights, as well as broad disclaimers of warranty (Section 19), limitations of liability (Section 20), and an indemnification obligation (Section 21). BY USING THE SERVICE, YOU AGREE TO ALL OF THE TERMS BELOW. IF YOU DO NOT AGREE, DO NOT USE THE SERVICE.

These Terms of Service ("Terms") are a legally binding agreement between you ("User," "you," or "your") and Stint LLC, a Virginia limited liability company ("Stint," "Company," "we," "us," or "our"), governing your access to and use of the Stint mobile application, the website at stint.tech, and all related software, APIs, voice features, AI-generated content, and services (collectively, the "Service"). These Terms incorporate our Privacy Policy by reference.

1. Acceptance of Terms

By creating an account, downloading, installing, accessing, or using the Service in any manner, you represent and warrant that: (a) you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by these Terms and our Privacy Policy; (b) you have the legal capacity to enter into this agreement, or — if you are a minor — that a parent or legal guardian who has such capacity has agreed to these Terms on your behalf as described in Section 2; (c) all information you provide is accurate; and (d) you will comply with these Terms and all applicable laws.

1.1 Individual Personal Use

The Service is licensed for individual personal use — meaning use by you as an individual for your own goals, career development, personal projects, and productivity. You may use the Service in connection with your work as a freelancer, contractor, employee, or independent professional, provided you are doing so for your own personal benefit and not on behalf of, or primarily for the benefit of, an organization.

The following are not authorized under these Terms and require a separate written agreement with Stint: (a) Enterprise Use, meaning deploying the Service to employees, teams, or other individuals within an organization; (b) purchasing or using the Service as a corporate tool or business asset; or (c) using the Service in a manner whose primary purpose is to benefit an organization rather than you as an individual. We disclaim liability for any consequence of unauthorized Enterprise Use.

You further represent and warrant that: (a) your use of the Service does not violate any policy of your employer or any other organization, including any policy governing the use of employer-owned devices, accounts, or networks; and (b) you will not submit to the Service any data you are not authorized to disclose, including your employer's or any third party's confidential information, trade secrets, information subject to a non-disclosure or other contractual obligation, or information subject to sector-specific regulation (such as protected health information or regulated financial data). You are solely responsible for any content you submit in breach of this Section, and we may suspend or terminate your account and delete associated data if we reasonably believe such a breach has occurred.

2. Eligibility, Capacity, and Parental Consent for Minors

The Service is intended for individuals at least thirteen (13) years of age. By using the Service, you represent and warrant that you are at least 13; that you are not located in, nor a national or resident of, any country subject to a comprehensive U.S. embargo, and are not on any applicable government list of prohibited or restricted parties; and that you have not previously been suspended or removed from the Service.

Capacity and Minors. To accept these Terms on your own behalf, you must have the legal capacity to enter into a binding contract. If you are under the age of legal majority in your jurisdiction (generally 18; 19 in Alabama and Nebraska; 21 in Mississippi), you do not have that capacity, and you may use the Service only if a parent or legal guardian who can form a binding contract has reviewed and agreed to these Terms. In that case:

• the parent or legal guardian — not the minor — is the contracting party who accepts and is bound by these Terms (including the arbitration agreement, class-action waiver, disclaimers, limitation of liability, and indemnification in Sections 19–22), and is responsible for the minor's use of and compliance with the Service and for all activity under the account;
• by permitting the minor to access or use the Service, or by accepting these Terms through the in-app consent flow with respect to the minor, the parent or legal guardian agrees to be bound by these Terms; and
• the minor represents that such parental or guardian consent has been obtained and remains in effect.

If you are a minor and a parent or legal guardian has not agreed to these Terms for you, or if you otherwise lack the legal capacity to agree, do not use the Service. We may rely on the representations in this Section, and we may suspend or terminate any account where required consent has not been obtained.

No Use by Children Under 13. The Service is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from them. Consistent with the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act ("COPPA"), 15 U.S.C. § 6501 et seq., we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13 and will delete it and terminate the associated account promptly upon discovery.

Age Screen. At account setup we present a neutral age screen that asks for your age solely to confirm that you meet the minimum-age requirement. We keep a server-side record that the requirement was met — including whether you confirmed you are 18 or older — and the date on which that confirmation occurred (see our Privacy Policy). The age you enter is also stored on your device and used as a personalization input to help tailor your plan to your life stage. We do not ask for, or store, your full date of birth. If your response indicates that you do not meet the minimum age, we block account creation and access. You agree not to misrepresent or falsify your age, or the age of any person on whose behalf you act, and not to circumvent or attempt to circumvent the age screen. The age screen supplements, and does not replace, the representations you make in this Section.

EU/UK Users Ages 13–15. If you are located in the European Economic Area or the United Kingdom and are between the ages of 13 and 15, applicable law (including Article 8 of the GDPR and the equivalent UK GDPR provision) requires parental or guardian consent for the processing of your personal information. By using the Service, you represent that a parent or legal guardian has reviewed and agreed to these Terms on your behalf and has provided such consent. Parents and guardians assume full responsibility for the minor's use of the Service as described in the "Capacity and Minors" section above.

3. Description of the Service

Stint is an AI-powered productivity and execution-support application. It uses large language models ("LLMs"), generative AI, voice transcription, and automated systems to generate personalized tasks, plans, drafts, summaries, prompts, and other content (collectively, "AI Output") from inputs you provide. Among other things, the Service may: generate daily tasks and plans tied to your stated goals; chat with you about your work and context; record and transcribe your voice and use the transcript as input; build, store, and update a personalized memory profile; issue push notifications; and present subscription offers.

THE SERVICE IS AN INFORMATIONAL AND PRODUCTIVITY TOOL. IT IS NOT, AND DOES NOT PROVIDE, PROFESSIONAL ADVICE OF ANY KIND. We may add, modify, suspend, or remove any feature, functionality, content, integration, AI model, or vendor at any time, in our sole discretion, with or without notice and without liability to you.

4. Accounts, Authentication, and Security

To use most features, you must register for an account. You may register using Sign in with Apple, Sign in with Google, an email one-time passcode, or other methods we make available. You are responsible for: (i) maintaining the confidentiality of your account access; (ii) all activity under your account; (iii) promptly notifying us at hello@stint.tech of any unauthorized use or suspected compromise; and (iv) complying with any third-party authentication provider's terms. If you use Apple's email relay and later disable it, communications from us may not reach you.

We are not liable for loss arising from your failure to safeguard your account. We may refuse, suspend, lock, or terminate any account at any time, as further described in Section 15.

We externalize account authentication to third-party providers (such as Apple and Google), and we do not control, manage, or secure your underlying authentication credentials with those providers. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we disclaim liability for any unauthorized access, data exposure, or account compromise resulting from security vulnerabilities, credential leaks, phishing, or compromised sessions originating within your third-party authentication-provider accounts or your own devices.

Telemetry and Integrity Monitoring. Stint reserves the right to deploy automated systems to monitor interaction telemetry for patterns consistent with competitive intelligence gathering, automated extraction, or coordinated scraping. We reserve the right to suspend, throttle, or permanently terminate any account that exhibits access patterns consistent with automated scripts, coordinated multi-account reconnaissance, or access methods designed to obscure corporate identity for the purpose of competitive intelligence gathering — without any liability or refund obligation to you. Stint's right to terminate under Section 15 applies regardless of whether such access is technically permissible under your authentication credentials.

5. AI Output, Limitations, and Your Sole Responsibility

Generative AI is inherently probabilistic, imperfect, and unreliable. You acknowledge and agree that:

(a) AI Output may be inaccurate, incomplete, biased, offensive, outdated, fabricated ("hallucinated"), internally inconsistent, or otherwise unsuitable for any purpose, and the Service has no obligation to warn you when this occurs.

(b) AI Output is not, and must not be relied upon as, professional advice of any kind, including medical, mental-health, psychological, psychiatric, legal, accounting, tax, financial, investment, immigration, employment, academic, career, safety, or engineering advice.

(c) The Service is not a therapist, licensed or professional coach, mentor, crisis counselor, suicide-prevention resource, doctor, lawyer, financial advisor, or licensed professional of any kind. If you are in crisis or experiencing a medical or mental-health emergency, contact your local emergency services immediately. In the United States, call or text 988 to reach the Suicide & Crisis Lifeline, or dial 911.

(d) Any description of the Service or its features as "coaching," "guidance," "mentorship," or "execution support" is informal and motivational only and creates no professional, fiduciary, advisory, therapeutic, or special relationship between you and Stint, our affiliates, or our vendors.

(e) You are solely responsible for evaluating and verifying all AI Output before relying on it, acting on it, sharing it, or making any decision based on it.

(f) AI Output may be similar or identical to output generated for other users; we make no representation as to its uniqueness, originality, or non-infringement.

(g) Where the Service drafts content at your direction, you are responsible for reviewing it before sending, publishing, or relying on it.

(h) The Service has no real-world contextual awareness and no physical visibility into your environment, circumstances, or capabilities. AI Output and generated tasks may suggest actions that are physically impossible, structurally or physically unsafe, logistically flawed, time- or resource-infeasible, or incompatible with your local environment, abilities, or applicable law. You must independently evaluate and verify the physical safety, legality, and logistical feasibility of any task or suggestion before attempting to act on it, and you assume all risk of doing so.

YOU ASSUME ALL RISK ASSOCIATED WITH YOUR USE OF AI OUTPUT.

6. Prohibited and High-Stakes Uses

You will not use the Service, AI Output, or exported data for any of the following, without limitation:

• medical diagnosis, treatment, prescription, or clinical decision-making;
• mental-health crisis intervention or as a substitute for licensed therapy;
• legal advice, binding contracts, court filings, or regulatory submissions;
• financial, tax, accounting, securities, insurance, or investment decision-making;
• consequential decisions about other people (hiring, firing, credit, housing, education, insurance, public benefits, etc.);
• operation of nuclear facilities, life-support, weapons, aircraft, mass transit, or other safety-critical systems;
• content that infringes IP, defames, harasses, threatens, doxes, or invades anyone's privacy;
• sexual content involving minors, non-consensual intimate imagery, or depictions of real persons without consent;
• malware, phishing, fraud, identity theft, scams, spam, or social engineering;
• violating any law, regulation, sanction, export control, or third-party right;
• reverse-engineering, scraping, or training or building a competing AI model, product, or service;
• bypassing rate limits, content filters, safety classifiers, or other protection measures;
• content related to chemical, biological, radiological, nuclear, or high-yield explosive (CBRNE) weapons; or
• any use unlawful in your jurisdiction.

We may (but need not) monitor, review, refuse, filter, or remove any User Content, AI Output, or activity, and take action against anyone who, in our judgment, violates this Section.

7. User Content and License Grant

"User Content" means any data, text, voice recordings, transcripts, images, files, goals, plans, prompts, chat messages, documents, links, metadata, brain-dumps, memory entries, and other materials you submit, dictate, transmit through, or generate using the Service, and any inputs you direct the Service to process.

7.1 Ownership. As between you and Stint, you retain whatever ownership rights you have in your User Content, subject to the license below. To the extent Stint holds any right, title, or interest in AI Output generated for you, Stint assigns it to you; however, we make no representation, warranty, or guarantee that AI Output is protectable by copyright or other intellectual-property rights, that it qualifies for human authorship, or that it is free from third-party intellectual-property claims, and you are solely responsible for determining whether and how you may use, register, or rely on any AI Output.

7.2 License to Stint. You grant Stint and its affiliates, successors, assigns, contractors, processors, and service providers a worldwide, royalty-free, fully paid-up, non-exclusive, sublicensable, and transferable license to host, store, copy, cache, transmit, reproduce, modify, adapt, translate, create derivative works of, process, analyze, log, retain, and otherwise use your User Content (in any media now known or later developed) for the following purposes: (a) operating, providing, maintaining, securing, and supporting the Service; (b) developing, improving, evaluating, benchmarking, testing, and (where permitted under Section 7.3) training AI models, algorithms, classifiers, embeddings, datasets, prompts, and features; (c) producing aggregated, anonymized, or de-identified datasets and insights that cannot reasonably be re-linked to you, which we may use and commercialize without restriction; (d) promoting the Service (without publicly identifying you by name or likeness without your consent unless legally permitted); and (e) complying with legal, regulatory, audit, security, and risk-management obligations.

Savings Clause. This license does not authorize the "sale" or "sharing" of personal information as those terms are defined under applicable data-protection laws (including the CCPA/CPRA, VCDPA, and GDPR), and it does not limit, waive, or supersede your statutory rights under those laws. Where EU or UK law applies, your right to withdraw consent remains unaffected (GDPR Article 7(3)), and any "perpetual" or "irrevocable" character of this license is construed to the maximum extent permitted by law and subject to your data-deletion rights.

7.3 Use for AI Improvement and Training. You acknowledge and agree that we may use your User Content (including chat messages, transcripts, brain-dumps, goals, plans, memory entries, AI Output you have rated or interacted with, and interaction metadata) to operate, evaluate, debug, secure, and improve the Service and its AI features, including refining our prompts and configurations, and to develop and train AI models and the de-identified and aggregated datasets described in Section 7.2. Where we offer an opt-out from the use of your content for AI model training or improvement, you may exercise it through any in-app control we provide or by emailing legal@stint.tech, which will prospectively stop such use; it does not undo processing that already occurred. You acknowledge and assume the risk that information you voluntarily include in your inputs may be reviewed — by automated systems or, where necessary, authorized personnel — for quality, fraud-prevention, safety, abuse-detection, debugging, security, or improvement purposes, and that de-identified records we retain after account deletion (see Section 16) may contain free-text content you chose to submit.

7.4 Your Representations and Warranties. You represent and warrant that: (a) you own or have all rights needed to submit your User Content and grant the licenses above; (b) your User Content does not and will not infringe or violate any third-party right (including intellectual property, publicity, or privacy); (c) it does not contain unlawful, defamatory, obscene, threatening, or otherwise objectionable material; (d) you have obtained any consents required from individuals identifiable in your User Content (including voice recordings of others); and (e) your submission and our permitted use of it will not violate any law or agreement.

7.5 Sensitive Content Warning. DO NOT submit information you consider confidential, secret, privileged, or sensitive. This includes, without limitation: government identifiers (Social Security, driver's-license, passport numbers); financial-account or payment-card numbers or banking credentials; protected health information regulated under HIPAA; biometric identifiers; passwords or API keys; trade secrets; and information subject to attorney-client, doctor-patient, or other privilege. The Service is not designed to be a HIPAA-, GLBA-, FERPA-, or PCI-DSS-compliant system, and we do not enter into Business Associate Agreements.

Because the Service relies on cloud-hosted, third-party AI models for processing, you acknowledge that the transmission and storage of free-text and voice-derived inputs carry inherent internet-security risks that no provider can eliminate. You assume all risk regarding the sensitivity of the content you choose to submit, and to the fullest extent permitted by law you waive and release any claim against Stint for emotional distress, reputational harm, or indirect, incidental, special, or consequential damages arising from unauthorized third-party access to, or any data breach exposing, your User Content. This does not waive any right that cannot be waived under applicable law.

7.6 Memory and Personalization. The Service builds, stores, and updates a personalized memory profile to tailor AI Output. In the app you can view what the Service remembers about you and wipe your entire memory; you can also delete your account, which deletes your memory. Wiping memory is prospective: prior AI Output generated using earlier memory states cannot be retroactively unwound.

8. Voice Recording, Transcription, and Multi-Party Consent

The Service includes voice features that record and transcribe your speech. The transcription path depends on the surface:

• Brain-dump voice input (onboarding and goal setup): audio is transmitted to a third-party speech-to-text provider through our backend for transcription. The audio is processed transiently and is not retained by us or by the provider under our agreement. Only the resulting transcript is stored.
• In-app chat dictation ("Hold to Talk"): audio is transcribed using your device's platform speech-recognition service, which, by default, performs server-side recognition that transmits audio to the platform provider (Apple) under that provider's terms.

By using these features:

(a) you consent to the recording, transcription, storage, and processing of your voice and voice-derived data by us and, depending on the surface, by our third-party speech-to-text provider or your device's platform speech-recognition provider, and you agree that transcripts are User Content subject to Section 7;

(b) you represent and warrant that you have obtained all consents required from any other person whose voice may be captured by your microphone, including under two-party or all-party consent laws (e.g., California, Florida, Illinois, Maryland, Massachusetts, Montana, New Hampshire, Pennsylvania, Washington). We inform you during onboarding of your obligation to obtain consent from others who may be recorded; by using voice features after onboarding, you confirm that you have obtained any required consents;

(c) you acknowledge that speech recognition may transmit audio to your device's platform provider (chat dictation) or to our third-party speech-to-text provider (brain-dump dictation) under their respective terms, which you agree to abide by; and

(d) voice transcripts and AI Output derived from them are subject to the license in Section 7.

You may revoke microphone access at any time in your device settings; doing so disables voice features prospectively but does not delete transcripts already created.

9. Third-Party AI Models, Services, and Integrations

The Service relies on and transmits data to third-party providers that fall into the following categories: enterprise AI model providers (currently OpenAI, Google, and Anthropic, which perform inference to generate AI Output); a speech-to-text provider (currently OpenAI, which transcribes brain-dump voice input); cloud infrastructure, database, authentication, and storage providers; product-analytics and session-replay providers; error- and performance-monitoring providers; a subscription-management and paywall provider; Apple Inc. (App Store, Sign in with Apple, the platform speech-recognition service, push notifications, and StoreKit); and, if you sign in with Google, Google LLC (authentication); together with additional present and future processors and integrations (collectively, "Third-Party Services"). A current list of our material sub-processors is available on request by emailing legal@stint.tech.

9.1 No Warranty Over Third Parties. Third-Party Services are provided by independent companies under their own terms and privacy policies. We do not control or endorse them and are not responsible for their availability, accuracy, security, or data practices. You assume the risks associated with the transmission, storage, and processing of your data by these third parties. You further acknowledge and agree that the Service depends entirely on third-party API availability and on those providers' automated content filters and moderation systems; we assume no liability if a downstream provider restricts, suspends, terminates, or rate-limits your or our access to its models, flags or refuses to process any input or output, alters or degrades model functionality, or deprecates or discontinues a service offering, and no such action by a third party shall constitute a breach of these Terms by Stint.

9.2 Provider Training. We make commercially reasonable efforts to use our AI providers in a manner intended to prevent them from using our customers' content to train their general-purpose foundation models. We do not guarantee that providers will honor such configurations and disclaim liability for any failure to do so.

9.3 Your Acceptance of Third-Party Terms. Your use of the Service may be subject to the terms of Third-Party Services, and you agree to be bound by them to the extent applicable.

10. Intellectual Property and Feedback

The Service — including all software, designs, text, graphics, prompts, system instructions, model configurations, embeddings, datasets, branding, trademarks, logos, sounds, and "look and feel" — is owned by Stint or its licensors and protected by intellectual-property laws. We grant you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable, revocable license to use the Service for your individual personal purposes in accordance with these Terms. All rights not expressly granted are reserved.

Compilation and Orchestration Protection. While individual AI outputs or standard design components may have statutory limitations regarding copyrightability, the specific selection, coordination, sequential chaining, and structural orchestration of prompts, memory states, user flows, coaching methodology, onboarding sequences, and media assets within Stint constitute an original, proprietary compilation protected as trade dress and intellectual property under the Lanham Act and applicable state law. The protectable elements of the Service include, without limitation: the multi-stage prompt architecture and its chaining logic; the conversational memory model design; the task-generation and rep-sequencing methodology; and the overall experiential orchestration of the Service as a unified system. A copycat need not replicate any single element to infringe — substantial similarity in the overall architecture, flow, or feel is sufficient.

Feedback. If you submit suggestions, ideas, or feedback ("Feedback"), you assign to Stint all right, title, and interest in it (or, where assignment is not permitted, grant a perpetual, irrevocable, worldwide, royalty-free, sublicensable license to use it), without obligation or compensation to you.

Prompt Evolution and Co-Authorship Waiver. You acknowledge that the Service continuously refines its execution mechanisms, prompt sequences, and conversational orchestration based on aggregated user interaction data. To the extent that your inputs, formatting commands, or conversational corrections alter, optimize, or improve Stint's underlying prompt architecture, system instructions, or engineering logic, you hereby assign all right, title, and interest in such structural improvements to Stint, and expressly waive any claim of co-authorship, intellectual property ownership, or compensation regarding the evolved system framework. This waiver applies to any emergent structural improvement arising from your use, including improvements Stint cannot directly attribute to any individual user's input due to aggregation.

11. Restrictions and Acceptable Use

The restrictions in this Section apply equally to actions taken directly by the User or indirectly through employees, independent contractors, freelancers, agents, automated proxies, or corporate affiliates. Any individual or entity that directs, pays, or induces a third party to access Stint for the purpose of gathering competitive intelligence, taking screenshots, documenting workflows, or replicating the Service's design or behavior shall be held directly liable for inducing a breach of contract, trade secret misappropriation, and tortious interference with business relationships.

You agree not to, and not to permit any third party to: (a) copy, modify, distribute, sell, lease, sublicense, or create derivative works of the Service; (b) reverse-engineer, decompile, attempt to derive source code, model weights, prompts, or training data, or utilize prompt injection, adversarial probing, recursive messaging, jailbreaking, role-play circumvention, or semantic analysis to map, harvest, or replicate Stint's underlying prompt hierarchies, system instructions, memory storage schemas, or conditional routing logic — and "behavioral cloning," meaning the systematic observation of the Service's outputs to replicate its tone, pacing, coaching methodology, or conversational orchestration in a competing product — including the systematic logging, prompt tracking, output capturing, or user-experience documentation of the Service's behavioral patterns, adaptive tone, conversational spacing, or task-segmentation pacing for the purpose of synthesizing, distilling, or training a derivative workflow, model, or instruction set — is expressly defined as an unauthorized exploitation of Stint's trade secrets and is prohibited on the same terms as technical reverse engineering; (c) use the Service to develop, improve, or distribute any competing AI model, product, service, custom GPT, open-source repository, software library, or public prompt framework, regardless of whether such derivative work is distributed for profit, commercial gain, or free public utility; (d) scrape, crawl, harvest, or extract data from the Service; (e) circumvent rate limits, security, content filters, or safety classifiers; (f) generate large volumes of synthetic content for resale or as training data; (g) upload malware or malicious code; (h) impersonate any person or misrepresent your affiliation; (i) use the Service in violation of any law or third-party right; (j) remove or alter proprietary notices; (k) damage, disable, overburden, or impair the Service or interfere with others' use of it; (l) access or use the Service for the purpose of competitive intelligence gathering, corporate or investor benchmarking, or to study, evaluate, or analyze the Service on behalf of any entity that competes with or intends to compete with Stint; (m) replicate, imitate, or appropriate Stint's brand identity, user-experience patterns, proprietary UX flows, visual design language, or product concepts in a competing or derivative product; or (n) elicit, probe, or document Stint's system instructions, AI model selections, prompt engineering, database architecture, internal identifiers, or infrastructure design by any means, including through conversational manipulation, indirect questioning, or third-party intermediaries.

11.1 Competitive Intelligence and IP Protection

You represent and warrant that you are not accessing or using the Service on behalf of, or at the direction of, any person or entity that develops, operates, or plans to develop or operate a product or service that competes with Stint, and that your use is solely for the individual personal use described in Section 1.1. Any breach of this representation is a material breach of these Terms.

Trade Secret Protection. Stint's proprietary systems — including its prompt architecture, memory model design, conversational orchestration, task-generation methodology, and AI routing logic — constitute trade secrets protected under the Defend Trade Secrets Act (18 U.S.C. § 1836 et seq.) and applicable state trade-secret law. Any misappropriation of these trade secrets — including through unauthorized access, behavioral cloning, or the systematic observation prohibited by Section 11 — subjects you to the full range of remedies available under the DTSA and applicable state law, including injunctive relief, compensatory damages, exemplary damages for willful and malicious misappropriation, and attorneys' fees.

Stint's brand, product name, logo, color palette, typography, icon designs, screen layouts, user-experience flows, onboarding sequences, conversational coaching methodology, prompt architecture, memory model design, and the overall "look and feel" of the Service (collectively, "Stint IP") are proprietary trade dress and intellectual property owned exclusively by Stint. You may not appropriate, imitate, clone, or substantially replicate Stint IP — in whole or in part — in any product, service, marketing material, or publicly displayed work, regardless of whether the output is labeled as independent or as a derivative. This prohibition applies whether or not any individual element, taken alone, would qualify for independent protection.

11.2 Remedies for IP Violations

You acknowledge that any actual or threatened violation of Sections 10, 11, 11.1, or 11(l)–(n) would cause Stint immediate and irreparable harm for which monetary damages would be an inadequate remedy. Accordingly, in addition to any other remedies available at law or in equity, Stint is entitled to seek injunctive or other equitable relief to prevent or restrain any such violation or threatened violation, without the requirement of posting any bond or other security and without the necessity of proving actual damages. Nothing in the binding arbitration clause (Section 22) prevents Stint from seeking emergency injunctive relief in a court of competent jurisdiction pending arbitration.

In addition to injunctive relief, for violations of Sections 11, 11.1, and 11(l)–(n), Stint may seek: (a) actual damages, including disgorgement of any profits or value derived from the violating use; (b) where applicable, statutory damages under the Lanham Act, the Copyright Act, or other applicable IP statutes; and (c) attorneys' fees and costs to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law. Stint's election to pursue one remedy does not waive or limit any other remedy.

Liquidated Damages. You acknowledge that Stint's proprietary prompt architecture, conversational orchestration, and coaching methodology represent core components of Stint's corporate valuation and first-mover advantage, and that the exact financial damage caused by dilution of this advantage — including harm to enterprise equity value, investor confidence, and market positioning — is impossible to calculate with precision at an early stage of Stint's development. Accordingly, the parties agree that any verified violation of Section 11, 11.1, or 11(l)–(n) shall trigger liquidated damages in an amount equal to the greater of: (i) one hundred thousand U.S. dollars (US $100,000) per verified violation; or (ii) one hundred percent (100%) of all gross revenues generated by the competing or infringing product or service through the date of judgment. The parties expressly agree that these amounts represent a reasonable, non-punitive, good-faith forecast of harm to Stint's enterprise equity value and are not a penalty. Nothing in this paragraph limits Stint's right to seek additional actual damages where provable harm exceeds the liquidated amount.

12. Beta, Preview, and Experimental Features

We may offer beta, preview, or experimental features ("Beta Features") "AS IS" and "AS AVAILABLE" without warranty. They may be unstable, may change or be discontinued at any time, and may be subject to additional terms. Use is at your sole risk, and we may collect additional usage data to evaluate them.

13. Subscriptions, Billing, and Auto-Renewal

13.1 Plans and Billing. Some features require a paid subscription ("Subscription"), sold in fixed-term plans (e.g., monthly or annual). Pricing is shown at the point of purchase and may vary by region, platform, promotion, cohort, or experiment. We may change pricing, plans, billing intervals, trial terms, and feature allocations at any time, with prospective effect.

13.2 Payment Methods. Subscriptions for the iOS application are processed through the Apple App Store / Apple Media Services and are subject to Apple's terms, including the Apple Media Services Terms and Conditions. Subscription presentation and management are facilitated via Apple StoreKit and a third-party subscription-management provider. If we offer direct web subscriptions in the future, those may be processed through a third-party payment processor, and we will update these Terms.

13.3 Auto-Renewal. SUBSCRIPTIONS AUTOMATICALLY RENEW at the end of each billing period at the then-current renewal price until cancelled, without further action from you. The renewal price may differ from any introductory or trial price. Unless cancelled before the end of a free trial or introductory period, the Subscription converts to a paid Subscription at the standard price.

13.4 Cancellation. You may cancel at any time, but cancellation only prevents future renewals and does not entitle you to a refund of fees already paid. App Store Subscriptions must be cancelled through your Apple ID settings (Settings > Apple ID > Subscriptions); we cannot cancel them on your behalf. To avoid being charged for the next period, cancel at least 24 hours before the renewal date.

13.5 Refunds; EU/UK Withdrawal. Except where required by applicable law, all payments are final and non-refundable. App Store refunds, if any, are governed and processed by Apple, not Stint. If you are a consumer in the EU or UK, by purchasing a Subscription and requesting immediate access to digital content, you expressly request that performance begin immediately and acknowledge that you thereby lose your statutory 14-day right of withdrawal once performance has begun.

13.6 Taxes. Prices are exclusive of applicable taxes (including VAT, GST, and sales tax), which are your responsibility unless we are required to collect them, in which case they are added at checkout.

13.7 Failed Payments. If a charge fails, we or the App Store may suspend or downgrade your access and may retry the charge and update payment-method details via card-network account-updater services.

13.8 Promotional Offers. Free trials, discounts, and credits are time-limited, non-transferable, may be revoked at any time, and are subject to additional terms communicated at the point of offer.

13.9 Creator and Referral Codes. We may let you enter a creator or referral code during onboarding. A code's core function is attribution — it associates your subscription with the creator who referred you so that creator can be credited. Any customer-facing incentive that may from time to time be attached to a code (for example, an introductory trial) is offered, scoped, and adjusted at our sole discretion and may be added, changed, or withdrawn at any time; entering a code never changes the disclosures, auto-renewal terms, or your cancellation rights described in this Section 13. Creators participate under separate Stint Creator Program Terms as independent contractors; they are not our agents, and we are not responsible for, and disclaim all liability for, any statement, claim, promise, or representation a creator makes about the Service, which is subject to the disclaimers in Sections 9, 19, 20, and 21. Codes have no cash value, are non-transferable, and may be disabled at any time, and we may void attribution and any associated incentive for self-referral, fraud, or other abuse.

14. Apple App Store Additional Terms

If you obtained the application from the Apple App Store, the following apply, and in the event of conflict with Apple's Licensed Application End User License Agreement ("Apple EULA"), the more restrictive provision governs:

(a) these Terms are between you and Stint only, not Apple; (b) Apple is not responsible for the application or its content; (c) Apple has no obligation to provide maintenance or support; (d) in the event the application fails to conform to any applicable warranty, you may notify Apple, and Apple will refund any purchase price for the application, with no other warranty obligation to the maximum extent permitted by law; (e) Stint, not Apple, is responsible for product and end-user claims, including product-liability, regulatory-conformance, and consumer-protection claims; (f) Stint, not Apple, is responsible for investigating and defending any third-party IP claim concerning the application; (g) you represent that you are not in an embargoed country or on a prohibited-parties list; and (h) Apple and its subsidiaries are third-party beneficiaries of these Terms and may enforce them against you.

15. Suspension and Termination

We may suspend, restrict, throttle, downgrade, or terminate your account or access at any time, with or without notice, for reasons including actual or suspected breach of these Terms, fraud or abuse, risk to the Service or other users, legal obligation, non-payment, inactivity, or legitimate business reasons. You may terminate your account at any time through in-app account-deletion controls or by contacting hello@stint.tech.

16. Effect of Termination

On termination: (a) your right to use the Service immediately ends; (b) we apply the data-handling described in our Privacy Policy — in summary, we permanently delete your profile, chats, messages, memory, goals, tasks, and push tokens from our active systems, while retaining certain de-identified chat and AI-usage records (with your account identifier replaced by a one-way salted hash) for security, abuse-prevention, analytics, and service-improvement purposes; (c) you remain liable for amounts owed; and (d) Sections 5, 6, 7 (and the licenses granted thereunder), 9, 10, 11, 13.5, and 16–33, and any provision that by its nature should survive, will survive. Encrypted backups may persist for a limited period as described in the Privacy Policy. We have no obligation to return or export User Content following termination except as required by law.

17. Modifications to the Service and Terms

We may modify, suspend, or discontinue the Service (in whole or in part) at any time, with or without notice. We may modify these Terms by posting a revised version with a new "Last Updated" date.

Non-Material Changes. For non-material changes (clarifications, formatting, or updates that do not adversely affect your rights), your continued use after the changes take effect constitutes acceptance.

Material Changes. For material changes — including changes that adversely affect your rights, materially expand our data practices, alter dispute resolution, or significantly modify fees — we will provide notice by reasonable means as required by applicable law, and may require you to review and accept the updated Terms before continuing to use the Service. If you do not accept, you may stop using and terminate your account; continued use after the changes take effect constitutes acceptance.

Service Availability. The Service depends on your device, your internet or mobile-data connection, your device and operating-system settings, available storage and battery, and third-party platforms and networks. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we are not responsible for any unavailability, delay, interruption, limitation, or error in the Service or any feature caused by factors outside our reasonable control, including poor or absent connectivity, carrier or internet-provider issues, device settings or limitations, insufficient storage or battery, operating-system or app-store restrictions, Focus or Do-Not-Disturb settings, or third-party-service outages. You are responsible for obtaining and maintaining the device, software, connectivity, and permissions needed to use the Service, and for any data, carrier, or app-store charges you incur.

Updates and Compatibility. We may release updates, fixes, or new versions of the Service from time to time. Some features may require you to install the latest version of the application or update your operating system. We do not guarantee that the Service will remain compatible with every device, operating-system version, or third-party service, and if you do not install updates, some features may stop working or may not work properly.

Device Modifications. Modifying your device — including jailbreaking, rooting, sideloading unauthorized software, or bypassing platform security controls — may compromise the Service's functionality and security. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we disclaim responsibility for any malfunction, data loss, account compromise, inaccurate output, failed notification, or security vulnerability resulting from such modifications.

Notifications and Reminders. Push notifications, reminders, and streak or task prompts are convenience features only. They may be delayed, missed, duplicated, or fail to deliver because of device settings, operating-system behavior, app permissions, connectivity, platform push services, Focus or Do-Not-Disturb settings, battery or storage limits, or other factors outside our control. You should not rely on Service notifications or reminders for any time-sensitive, safety-critical, medical, or other consequential purpose, and to the fullest extent permitted by law we are not liable for any consequence of a missed, delayed, duplicated, inaccurate, or failed notification or reminder.

18. Data, Privacy, and Storage

Our collection, use, and disclosure of personal information are described in our Privacy Policy, incorporated by reference. By using the Service, you acknowledge those practices. We do not warrant that backups will be available or that data will be free from loss, corruption, or unauthorized access, or retained for any particular period.

19. Disclaimer of Warranties

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, THE SERVICE, ALL AI OUTPUT, AND ALL CONTENT, FEATURES, AND MATERIALS ARE PROVIDED "AS IS," "AS AVAILABLE," AND "WITH ALL FAULTS," WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, WHETHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED, STATUTORY, OR OTHERWISE.

Stint and its affiliates, officers, directors, employees, agents, licensors, suppliers, and processors (collectively, the "Stint Parties") disclaim all warranties, including merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, title, non-infringement, accuracy, completeness, reliability, availability, security, and quiet enjoyment, and any warranties arising from course of dealing or usage of trade. The Stint Parties do not warrant that the Service or AI Output will meet your requirements, be uninterrupted, secure, or error-free; that AI Output will be accurate or fit for any purpose; that defects will be corrected; or that the Service is free of harmful components. No advice or information obtained from the Service creates any warranty not expressly stated here.

Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion of certain warranties; in those jurisdictions, the Stint Parties' warranties are limited to the minimum scope and duration permitted by law.

20. Limitation of Liability

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, IN NO EVENT WILL ANY STINT PARTY BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, SPECIAL, EXEMPLARY, PUNITIVE, OR ENHANCED DAMAGES; LOST PROFITS, REVENUE, BUSINESS, OR GOODWILL; LOSS OF DATA OR USE; LOSS OF OPPORTUNITY; EMOTIONAL DISTRESS; OR DAMAGES ARISING FROM RELIANCE ON AI OUTPUT, ACADEMIC OR BUSINESS OUTCOMES, MENTAL OR PHYSICAL HEALTH, FINANCIAL DECISIONS, MISSED DEADLINES, OR ANY RESULT OF USING (OR INABILITY TO USE) THE SERVICE, REGARDLESS OF THE LEGAL THEORY AND EVEN IF ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

AGGREGATE CAP. THE STINT PARTIES' TOTAL AGGREGATE LIABILITY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THESE TERMS OR THE SERVICE, FROM ALL CAUSES AND THEORIES, WILL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF (A) THE TOTAL AMOUNTS YOU PAID STINT FOR THE SERVICE IN THE SIX (6) MONTHS IMMEDIATELY PRECEDING THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO LIABILITY, OR (B) ONE HUNDRED U.S. DOLLARS (US$100). MULTIPLE CLAIMS DO NOT EXPAND THIS LIMIT.

Gross Negligence and Mandatory Exclusions. The aggregate cap and the exclusion of indirect and consequential damages above do not apply to, and nothing in this Section 20 limits Stint's liability for: (a) death or personal injury caused by Stint's negligence; (b) damages resulting from Stint's gross negligence or willful misconduct; (c) fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation by Stint; or (d) any other liability that applicable law expressly prohibits from being limited, capped, or excluded. If any portion of this Section's liability limitations is found unenforceable as to a particular category of claim, that limitation is severed and inapplicable to that category only; the remaining limitations apply to all other claims.

Essential Basis. These limitations are an essential basis of the bargain and apply even if a limited remedy fails of its essential purpose. For the avoidance of doubt, the liability caps and limitations set forth in this Section 20 apply strictly to claims brought against the Stint Parties and shall under no circumstances limit, cap, or waive a User's liability to Stint for violations of Sections 10, 11, 11.1, or 11.2, or any intentional misappropriation of Stint IP.

Time to Bring Claims. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, any claim or cause of action arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Service must be commenced within one (1) year after the claim or cause of action accrues; otherwise it is permanently barred. This limitation does not apply where applicable law (including mandatory consumer-protection law in your jurisdiction) requires a longer period, in which case the shortest period permitted by that law applies.

Jurisdictional Limits. Some jurisdictions do not allow certain limitations; where a limitation is unenforceable, the Stint Parties' liability is limited to the minimum extent permitted by law. Nothing in these Terms excludes liability that cannot be excluded under applicable law (such as liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence, or for fraud).

21. Indemnification

To the maximum extent permitted by law, you agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless the Stint Parties from any claims, demands, losses, damages, fines, penalties, judgments, settlements, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising out of or related to: (a) your use of (or inability to use) the Service; (b) your User Content (including AI Output you generate, share, or rely on); (c) your violation of these Terms or any law or third-party right; (d) your reliance on AI Output and any decision or action based on it; (e) your interaction with any Third-Party Service; (f) any dispute between you and another user or third party; or (g) your negligent or willful misconduct.

AI Output Carve-Out. Your indemnification obligations above do not extend to a claim arising solely from AI Output that the Service generated autonomously, except to the extent the claim arises from or is caused by (i) your prohibited, unlawful, or infringing input or other misuse of the Service, (ii) your editing or alteration of the AI Output, or (iii) your sharing, publishing, distributing, or relying on the AI Output. This carve-out addresses only your duty to indemnify Stint and does not expand Stint's liability, which remains subject to Sections 19 and 20.

We may, at your expense, assume exclusive defense and control of any matter subject to indemnification, and you will cooperate. You will not settle any matter without our prior written consent.

EU/UK Consumer Savings Clause. If you are a consumer in the EU or UK, this Section applies only to the extent permitted by applicable mandatory consumer-protection law and does not require you to indemnify Stint for losses caused by Stint's own negligence, breach, or fraud, nor limit your non-waivable statutory rights.

22. Binding Arbitration; Class-Action Waiver; Jury-Trial Waiver

PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY. IT REQUIRES DISPUTES TO BE RESOLVED THROUGH FINAL AND BINDING INDIVIDUAL ARBITRATION AND WAIVES YOUR RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL AND TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTION.

22.1 Agreement to Arbitrate. You and Stint agree that any past, present, or future dispute, claim, or controversy arising out of or relating to the Service, these Terms, or our relationship (a "Dispute") will be resolved by final and binding individual arbitration administered by JAMS under its Streamlined Arbitration Rules then in effect, except as modified here. The Federal Arbitration Act governs interpretation and enforcement.

22.2 Pre-Arbitration Notice; Informal Resolution. Before initiating arbitration, the claimant must send a written notice of dispute (describing the claim and relief sought) to the other party; notices to Stint go to legal@stint.tech. The parties will attempt in good faith to resolve the Dispute within sixty (60) days; if unresolved, either party may commence arbitration.

22.3 Arbitrator's Authority. The arbitrator has exclusive authority to resolve disputes about the interpretation, applicability, enforceability, or formation of these Terms or this arbitration agreement, except that the enforceability of the Class-Action Waiver in Section 22.5 may be decided only by a court.

22.4 Location, Costs, and Procedure. Arbitration will be conducted in Fairfax County, Virginia, or, at your election, by telephone, video, or written submission. Each party bears its own fees and costs except as provided by the JAMS rules or applicable law. The arbitrator may award any individual relief a court could award.

22.5 Class-Action and Representative-Action Waiver. You and Stint may bring claims only in an individual capacity, and not as a plaintiff or member of any class, collective, consolidated, mass, or representative proceeding. The arbitrator may not consolidate claims or preside over any representative proceeding. If this waiver is found unenforceable as to a particular claim or remedy, that claim or remedy (only) will be severed and brought in a court of competent jurisdiction; the remaining Disputes continue in arbitration.

22.6 Jury-Trial Waiver. To the maximum extent permitted by law, you and Stint each waive any right to a jury trial.

22.7 30-Day Right to Opt Out. You may opt out of this arbitration agreement and class-action waiver within thirty (30) days of first accepting these Terms by emailing legal@stint.tech with the subject "Arbitration Opt-Out" and including your full name, account email, mailing address, and a clear statement that you wish to opt out. Opting out does not affect any other provision.

22.8 Exceptions. Either party may bring (a) an individual action in small-claims court within that court's jurisdiction, or (b) an action in court for injunctive or equitable relief to protect intellectual-property rights or prevent unauthorized use of the Service.

22.9 Severability and Survival. If any portion of this Section is unenforceable, the remainder is enforced to the maximum extent permitted by law. This Section survives termination.

22.10 Coordinated / Mass Filings. If twenty-five (25) or more substantially similar demands for arbitration are submitted against Stint by or with the assistance or coordination of the same or coordinated counsel (a "Mass Filing"), the parties agree the following procedures apply, notwithstanding any contrary JAMS rule, to promote the efficient and fair resolution of the demands:

(a) Staged filing. Counsel for the claimants and counsel for Stint will each select up to ten (10) demands (together, up to twenty (20) demands) to proceed first as individual "bellwether" arbitrations. The remaining demands will be stayed — and no filing or administrative fees for them will be assessed against either party — until they are selected to proceed under this Section.

(b) Bellwether arbitrations. The selected bellwether arbitrations will proceed individually under the rules above. Each arbitrator's award is binding only as to that individual claimant.

(c) Mediation. After the bellwether arbitrations conclude, the parties will participate in a single global mediation, before a mutually agreed mediator, to attempt to resolve the remaining demands using the bellwether outcomes as guidance.

(d) Remaining demands. If mediation does not resolve a remaining demand, the parties will repeat the process above for the remaining demands in batches of up to one hundred (100) at a time (with the parties alternating selection), until all demands are resolved or adjudicated.

(e) Tolling. Any applicable statute of limitations and any filing deadline are tolled for stayed demands from the date Stint receives the Pre-Arbitration Notice under Section 22.2 until the demand is selected to proceed.

(f) Maximum Stay Period. No properly filed demand subject to a stay under this Section 22.10 may remain stayed for more than twenty-four (24) months from the date Stint receives the claimant's Pre-Arbitration Notice under Section 22.2. If a stayed demand has not been selected to proceed and resolved within that period, the claimant may elect, by written notice to Stint, to withdraw from the arbitration agreement solely as to that demand and pursue it in a court of competent jurisdiction under Section 23, in which case the arbitration agreement does not apply to that demand.

This Section 22.10 is a material part of the parties' agreement to arbitrate. If it is found unenforceable as to a Mass Filing, the parties may by agreement, or a court may, sever it, in which case the affected demands proceed under the remainder of this Section 22.

23. Governing Law and Venue

These Terms and any Dispute are governed by the laws of the Commonwealth of Virginia, without regard to conflict-of-laws principles. The U.N. Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods does not apply. For any Dispute not subject to arbitration, you and Stint submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts in Fairfax County, Virginia, and waive any objection to venue; provided that, if you are an individual consumer, you may instead bring the Dispute in the state or federal courts located in the federal judicial district of your primary residence, and any in-person arbitration hearing under Section 22 will, at your election, be held in that district or conducted remotely. Nothing in this Section deprives you of the protection of mandatory consumer-protection laws of your country of residence where those laws apply.

24. DMCA / Copyright

We respond to notices of alleged copyright infringement under the Digital Millennium Copyright Act ("DMCA"). To submit a notice, send a written communication including the items required by 17 U.S.C. § 512(c)(3) to our designated agent:

Stint LLC — DMCA Agent Email: legal@stint.tech 8401 Mayland Dr Ste A, Richmond, VA, 23294 Commonwealth of Virginia, United States

We respond to valid notices in accordance with the DMCA and may terminate repeat infringers.

25. Export Controls and Sanctions

The Service is subject to U.S. export-control and sanctions laws, including the Export Administration Regulations and OFAC-administered regulations. You represent that you are not in an embargoed country and not on any applicable restricted-party list, and you will not export or transfer the Service in violation of applicable law.

26. Force Majeure

We are not liable for any delay or failure caused by events beyond our reasonable control, including acts of God, war, terrorism, civil unrest, government action, pandemic, labor disputes, internet or telecommunications failures, power outages, denial-of-service attacks, and third-party-provider failures (cloud, AI, payment, or app-store providers).

27. Notices and Electronic Communications

You consent to receive communications from us electronically (email, in-app notice, push notification, and through the Service). Electronic communications satisfy any legal requirement that a communication be in writing. Notices to you may be sent to your account email or posted in the Service. Notices to us must be sent to legal@stint.tech (or, for DMCA, as in Section 24).

28. Severability and Waiver

If any provision is held invalid or unenforceable, the remaining provisions remain in effect, and the invalid provision is modified to the minimum extent necessary to make it valid. Our failure to enforce any provision is not a waiver. No waiver is effective unless in writing and signed by an authorized representative of Stint.

29. Assignment

You may not assign these Terms without our prior written consent, and any attempted assignment in violation of this Section is void. We may freely assign these Terms to an affiliate or successor or in connection with a merger, acquisition, sale of assets, financing, or reorganization.

30. Entire Agreement; No Third-Party Beneficiaries

These Terms, together with the Privacy Policy and any additional terms presented within the Service, are the entire agreement between you and Stint regarding the Service and supersede all prior communications and agreements on the subject. Except for Apple as provided in Section 14, there are no third-party beneficiaries.

31. Independent Contractors; No Agency

You and Stint are independent contractors. These Terms create no agency, partnership, joint-venture, employment, fiduciary, or franchise relationship.

32. Jurisdiction-Specific Provisions

California Users. Under California Civil Code § 1789.3, California users may reach the Complaint Assistance Unit of the Division of Consumer Services of the California Department of Consumer Affairs at 1625 North Market Blvd., Suite N 112, Sacramento, CA 95834, or (800) 952-5210.

EU/UK Users. Nothing in these Terms limits any non-waivable statutory rights you have under applicable EU or UK consumer- or data-protection laws, including any right of withdrawal where applicable. Where your local law requires a different governing law or forum, those requirements control to the minimum extent necessary.
