Terms of Service

Effective August 14, 2026

1. Acceptance

These Terms of Service ("Terms") are a legally binding agreement between you and Candor, LLC ("Candor," "we," "us," or "our") governing the Candor mobile application and supporting services (the "Services"). By creating an account or using the Services, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use the Services.

2. Eligibility

You must be at least 18 years old and legally able to enter into these Terms.

3. Accounts and Security

You may register with email and password or an available third-party sign-in method. You are responsible for safeguarding your account and device, maintaining accurate information, and notifying support@candorfinance.app of suspected unauthorized use. You may not use another person's account without permission. We may require verification or recent authentication for sensitive actions.

4. The Service

Candor is a personal-finance and spending-awareness tool. It can display and categorize transactions, connect supported financial accounts through Plaid, show balances and planning information, support two-person households, import CSV data, and provide reflection and trend features. Features may change as the Service develops. Candor is not a bank, broker, credit bureau, tax preparer, or investment adviser.

5. Bank Connections

Current bank connections are facilitated by Plaid. By using Plaid Link, you authorize Plaid and your financial institution to provide the data you select to Candor, subject to Plaid's terms and privacy notice. Candor does not receive or store your bank login credentials. Financial institutions or Plaid may delay, limit, or end a connection, and displayed data may be incomplete or outdated. You may ask Candor to revoke a connection in Settings. A successful disconnect stops future retrieval through that connection; previously imported records are handled as described in the Privacy Policy.

6. Cloud Processing and Household Sharing

The Service transmits and stores account, financial, preference, and usage information to provide synchronization and other features. If you join a two-person household, information described as shared in the app becomes visible to the other member. Only share a household with someone you trust. Ownership transfer or other steps may be required before an owner can leave or delete an account so the remaining member's data is not erased.

7. Your Content and Permissions

You retain your rights in information you enter or import. You give Candor a limited permission to host, process, reproduce, and transmit that information only as reasonably necessary to operate, secure, improve, and support the Services and comply with law. You represent that you have the right to provide the information and household invitations you submit.

8. Subscriptions and Apple Billing

Paid access is offered through Apple's App Store. Price, trial, billing period, and available features are shown before purchase. If a free trial is offered, it converts to the displayed paid subscription unless canceled before the trial ends. Subscriptions renew automatically unless canceled through Apple at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Apple processes payment, renewal, cancellation, and refund requests under its terms. Deleting the Candor account or app does not cancel an App Store subscription. Restore Purchases can be used for eligible purchases.

9. Informational Use; No Financial Advice

Candor is for informational and personal use. It may use estimates, delayed provider data, user-entered assumptions, and automated categorization. Do not rely on Candor as the sole basis for a financial, tax, legal, credit, or investment decision. Consult a qualified professional when appropriate.

10. Third-Party Services

The Services depend on Apple, Firebase, Plaid, Railway, Better Stack, Resend, and other infrastructure described in the Privacy Policy. Third-party services are governed by their own terms and may be unavailable, changed, or discontinued. Candor is not responsible for a third party's independent acts or services to the extent permitted by law.

11. Acceptable Use

You may not use the Services unlawfully; access another account or data without authorization; interfere with or overload the Services; introduce malicious code; bypass security or access controls; scrape or automate access except with written permission; reverse engineer the Services except where law expressly permits it; or use Candor to infringe another person's rights.

12. Candor Intellectual Property

Subject to third-party rights, Candor and its licensors retain the rights they have in original software code, visual design, and content made available through the Services, excluding your content. Candor grants you a limited, personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to use the app for its intended purpose.

13. Availability and Changes

We work to provide a reliable Service but do not promise uninterrupted or error-free operation, permanent availability of any feature, or that synced data can never be lost. We may maintain, modify, suspend, or discontinue parts of the Service. Where reasonably practical, we will provide notice of a material change that significantly reduces the Service.

14. Account Deletion and Termination

You may request account deletion in Settings, subject to household ownership protections. Deletion and provider retention are described in the Privacy Policy. We may restrict, suspend, or terminate access if we reasonably believe you violated these Terms, created security or legal risk, or misused the Services. Where appropriate, we may provide notice and an opportunity to resolve the issue.

15. Disclaimer of Warranties

To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Services are provided "as is" and "as available." Candor disclaims implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, title, and non-infringement. Some jurisdictions do not allow certain warranty exclusions, so some exclusions may not apply to you.

16. Limitation of Liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, Candor and its officers, directors, employees, and agents will not be liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary, or punitive damages, or for lost profits, revenues, data, or financial opportunities arising from the Services. Candor's aggregate liability for claims relating to the Services will not exceed the greater of the amount you paid to Candor through the App Store during the 12 months before the event giving rise to the claim or fifty U.S. dollars. Applicable law may provide rights that cannot be limited by these Terms.

17. Governing Law

These Terms are governed by Kansas law, without regard to conflict-of-law rules. Subject to applicable consumer-protection law, disputes will be brought in the state or federal courts located in Johnson County, Kansas.

18. Changes to These Terms

We may update these Terms as the Services and legal requirements change. We will post the updated version and effective date and provide additional notice when required. If you do not agree to updated Terms, you should stop using the Services and may delete your account.
