Effective date: 27 October 2026
These Terms of Service (“Terms”) govern your use of AYearAgo.Today: the website at ayearago.today and the AYearAgo.Today apps for iPhone and Android (together, the “Service”). The Service is run by Stealth Launch, LLC (“we”, “us”, “our”), a company in Puerto Rico. These Terms are also the Terms of Use for the apps. By creating an account or using the Service, you agree to these Terms. Our Privacy Policy explains how we handle your information.
You must be at least 13 years old to use the Service. When you create an account, you confirm that you are 13 or older. If you are under 18, or under the age of majority where you live, a parent or legal guardian must review and agree to these Terms for you. Some features, such as 18+ entries, are only for adults. You can't use the Service if we have banned you before, or if the law forbids you from using it.
Give accurate information when you sign up and keep it up to date. Your account is for you alone: don't share it, sell it or let others use it. You are responsible for your sign-in details and for what happens under your account. Keep them secure, and tell us at once if you think someone else has accessed your account. Usernames must not impersonate anyone or break the community guidelines.
You own what you write and upload (“your content”). You give us a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free license to host, store, copy, resize, display and send your content as needed to run the Service: to show it to you, to show what you publish to others (including people without an account and search engines), to include it in your backups and to keep the Service safe. The license ends when you delete the content or your account, except for copies in server backups until they are overwritten, content others already shared, and what we must keep by law or in our reports and moderation records, as our Privacy Policy describes.
You are responsible for your content. Only post what you have the right to post, and don't post other people's private information without their permission. We don't endorse what members post and aren't responsible for it.
AYearAgo.Today is a place for reflection and self-improvement. We have no tolerance for objectionable content or abusive users. These rules apply to everything on the Service: journal entries, photos, logs, comments, profiles, usernames and private messages.
You must not post, send or do any of the following:
Reporting. If you see something that breaks these rules, use the Report link on the journal entry, photo, log, comment, message thread or profile, on the website or in the apps. Anyone, with or without an account, can also use our report form. We aim to review reports within 24 hours. This is a target, not a guarantee.
Intimate images. If an intimate image of you was shared on the Service without your consent, use our intimate image removal form. We remove the image within 48 hours of receiving a valid request and make reasonable efforts to remove identical copies.
Blocking. You can block any member from their profile. Blocking works both ways: neither of you sees the other's posts or comments, and neither of you can message or comment on the other.
How we moderate. Journal entries, photos and logs you save as public, comments, usernames, biographies and private messages are checked automatically against a list of blocked words, and text with a blocked word isn't saved. Everything else is decided by people: a member of our team reviews each report, including the reported private messages. We don't monitor private messages otherwise.
What we may do. If content or behavior breaks these rules or the law, we may make the content private, remove it, warn the author, or suspend or end the account. When we act on your content or account, we email you a statement of reasons: what we did, why, which rule it broke, and that a person made the decision. We don't send it when the law or someone's safety requires otherwise, for example in child-safety cases.
Appeals. If you think we got it wrong, reply to ayearagotoday@outlook.com within 6 months of our decision and tell us why. Someone who wasn't involved in the decision will review it and tell you the result. If you live in the EU, you may also be able to use a certified out-of-court dispute settlement body, and you can always go to court.
Repeat violations. We end the accounts of people who repeatedly break these rules, including repeat copyright infringers. Sending reports you know are false is itself a violation.
Authors can mark a journal entry 18+ when it deals with adult themes that aren't suitable for younger readers. “18+” never means sexually explicit: sexually explicit writing and images aren't allowed, even when marked 18+. Authors must mark such entries correctly; we may mark or unmark entries ourselves.
18+ entries are hidden by default for everyone, including visitors who aren't signed in and everyone using the apps. You can turn them on only on the website, at Settings → 18+ entries, by giving your birthdate and confirming that you are 18 or older. On the website, we also ask you to confirm you're 18 or older before each 18+ entry opens. The apps follow your website setting; they can turn 18+ entries off but never on.
You may not view 18+ entries if you are under 18. If you give a birthdate under 18, or your app store tells us you are under 18, 18+ entries stay hidden on your account. Age confirmations rely on what you or your app store tell us. We may deny or remove access to 18+ entries if we believe these rules are being abused.
You can stop using the Service and delete your account at any time (see Deleting your account).
We may suspend or end your account without notice if you seriously or repeatedly break these Terms, post illegal content, put others or the Service at risk, or if the law requires it. In other cases, we'll give you notice and the reasons first and a chance to respond.
When we suspend an account for breaking these Terms, its web (Stripe) subscription is cancelled at once and unused time isn't refunded, except where the law requires. We can't cancel App Store or Google Play subscriptions: cancel them in your store account. A suspended member can still ask us to delete the account on our account deletion page.
If we end your account, or close the Service, for a reason other than your breaking these Terms, we'll give you reasonable notice (at least 30 days where we can) so you can download a backup, and for a web subscription we'll either keep your Premium until the end of the period you paid for or refund the unused time.
The Service offers a free plan with limits on certain planner and log features (for example, a limited number of standalone habits, to-dos, and logs). Excess items may remain visible but locked until you free a slot or upgrade. Journaling, XP, and achievements remain available on the free plan as described on the site.
AYAT Premium (“Premium”) is a paid subscription that unlocks unlimited planner and log capacity and other Premium features described on the website's pricing page and in the apps. Premium applies to your whole account, on the website and in both apps, wherever you bought it. We may change Free or Premium features over time; we'll tell you about material changes on the Service before they take effect.
Billing. On the website, Premium is a monthly or yearly subscription billed by Stripe, Inc. (“Stripe”), plus any applicable taxes. The price, the billing period and any promotion are shown at checkout. By subscribing, you also agree to Stripe's terms for payment processing.
Automatic renewal. Your subscription renews automatically at the end of each period, and Stripe charges your payment method, until you cancel. It renews at the price shown at checkout, including when a promotion's discount ends. If we change the price, we'll tell you before your next renewal, and you can cancel before the new price applies.
Cancelling. Cancel at any time in Settings → AYAT Premium → Manage subscription, which opens Stripe's customer portal. Cancelling stops future renewals; you keep Premium until the end of the period you've paid for. After that, your account returns to the free plan, and free-plan limits and locks apply.
Refunds. Except as described here or where the law requires, web subscription fees are non-refundable, and we don't refund partial periods or unused time after cancellation.
EU and UK customers. If you live in the European Union, the European Economic Area or the United Kingdom, you can cancel a new web subscription within 14 days of buying it and get a full refund: email ayearagotoday@outlook.com with your username and the words “I withdraw from my AYAT Premium subscription”. This doesn't apply to renewals or to purchases made in the apps, which follow Apple's and Google's rules.
Failed payments. If a renewal payment fails, Stripe may retry the charge. If your subscription is no longer active, Premium features may be paused until payment succeeds or you subscribe again.
Billing. In the iPhone and Android apps, Premium is sold as a monthly or yearly subscription through the App Store or Google Play. Payment is charged to your Apple Account or Google Play account when you confirm the purchase. Prices are shown in the app before you buy and may vary by country.
Automatic renewal. Your subscription renews automatically at the end of each period, and your store account is charged, until you cancel.
Cancelling. Manage and cancel it in your store account: on iPhone, in your Apple Account subscription settings, at least 24 hours before the end of the current period to avoid the next charge; on Android, in Google Play → Payments & subscriptions, any time before the renewal date. You keep Premium until the end of the period you've paid for. Uninstalling the app doesn't cancel the subscription.
Refunds. Apple and Google handle refunds for purchases made through their stores, under their own policies. We can't issue refunds for those purchases.
Restoring purchases. If you reinstall the app or change phones, open Account → Premium in the app and choose Restore purchases.
You can delete your account at any time in the app (Account → Delete account), on the website (Settings → Close account), or on our account deletion page. Deletion is immediate and permanent. Our Privacy Policy explains what is deleted and what is kept.
We give you a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to install and use the AYearAgo.Today apps on devices you own or control, under these Terms and the rules of the store you got them from. Don't copy, modify, reverse-engineer or resell the apps, except as the law allows.
If you got the app from Apple's App Store, Apple's standard Licensed Application End User License Agreement also applies to the app, together with these Terms and the Apple-specific terms below. If you got it from Google Play, Google Play's terms of service also apply.
If you use the iPhone app, you and we agree that:
We respect copyright and expect members to do the same. If you believe content on the Service infringes your copyright, send a notice under the U.S. Digital Millennium Copyright Act (17 U.S.C. § 512) to our designated copyright agent at ayearagotoday@outlook.com with “Copyright notice” in the subject line. You can also use our report form and choose the copyright reason.
Your notice must include:
Counter-notice. If we removed your content because of a notice and you believe that was a mistake, you can send a counter-notice to the same address with: your physical or electronic signature; a description of the removed content and where it appeared; a statement under penalty of perjury that you believe in good faith it was removed by mistake or misidentification; your name, postal address and phone number; and a statement that you consent to the jurisdiction of the U.S. federal district court for your address (or, if you live outside the United States, any judicial district in which we may be found) and will accept service of process from the person who sent the notice. We may restore the content 10 to 14 business days after we receive a valid counter-notice, unless the person who sent the notice tells us they have filed a court action.
Repeat infringers. We end, in appropriate circumstances, the accounts of members who repeatedly infringe copyright. Knowingly misrepresenting that content is, or isn't, infringing can make you liable for damages.
The Service, including its software, design, text and logos (but not your content), belongs to Stealth Launch, LLC and is protected by law. You may use it only as these Terms allow. If you send us feedback or ideas, we may use them without owing you anything.
The Service is provided “as is” and “as available”. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we make no representations, warranties or guarantees of any kind about the accuracy, reliability, completeness, availability or suitability of the Service or its content, and we don't guarantee uninterrupted service or any particular service level. Any reliance you place on the Service is at your own risk.
The Service is a journal and planner. It isn't medical, mental-health, financial or other professional advice. If you or someone else is in danger, contact your local emergency services.
To the fullest extent permitted by law, Stealth Launch, LLC, which owns and operates AYearAgo.Today, will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential or punitive damages, or any loss of data, profits or goodwill, arising out of or in connection with the Service, including the website and the apps. Our total liability for any claim relating to the Service will not exceed the amounts you paid us for Premium in the twelve (12) months before the claim.
Nothing in these Terms limits liability that can't be limited by law, or takes away rights you have as a consumer under the mandatory laws of the place where you live.
We take no responsibility for, and will not be liable for, the Service being offline or unavailable because of technical issues or difficulties beyond our reasonable control. We may change, add or remove features. If we remove a feature you pay for, or close the Service, we'll give you notice as described in Suspending or ending accounts.
We may update these Terms from time to time. We'll post the updated Terms on this page with a new effective date. If a change is significant, for example to billing, your rights or how disputes are handled, we'll tell you before it takes effect by email or with a notice on the Service. If you don't agree, you can stop using the Service and delete your account before the change takes effect. Continued use of the Service after a change takes effect means you accept the updated Terms, where the law allows.
These Terms are governed by the laws of the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico, without regard to conflict-of-law rules. You agree that the courts located in Puerto Rico have exclusive jurisdiction over disputes arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Service, except where applicable law requires otherwise. If you are a consumer living in the European Union or the United Kingdom, you also keep the protection of the mandatory laws of the country where you live, and you can bring proceedings in its courts.
