Terms of Service

Last updated 17 August 2026.

Welcome to Chirpy, a private organiser for your household, operated by Chirpy. By creating an account you agree to these terms. Our Privacy Policy explains how we handle your data and is part of this agreement.

The short version. Chirpy is free to use on the Basic plan. Your content stays yours and we never use it for advertising or to train AI models. Everything you put in a shared area is visible to your whole household, and if you leave, that shared content stays behind. The AI, money and tax tools are helpers, not advisers — they can be wrong, so check anything that matters. You must be 16 or older to sign up, and an adult who invites a child is consenting for them. You can export everything and delete your account whenever you like, and so can we if you abuse the service.

1. Your account

You need to be at least 16 (or older where your local law requires — 18 in India) and sign in with an account that is genuinely yours. You are responsible for what happens under your account — tell us at the contact address we publish here before Chirpy opens to the public if you think it has been compromised. We check at signup that the email address you give is a real, deliverable one.

Inviting a child. An adult who owns a household can invite a child into it as a child member. By sending that invitation you confirm you are that child's parent or legal guardian, that you consent to Chirpy holding their data, and that you accept these terms on their behalf. Child accounts are restricted — the AI assistant is off until an adult turns it on, and a child cannot own a household.

2. Your household

Anything you add to shared areas — documents, money, meals, allergies, lists — is visible to every member of your household. Please don't add information about another person without their agreement.

The household owner can invite and remove members, set roles, and delete the household entirely, which permanently deletes its data for everyone. If you leave a household, content you contributed to shared areas stays with the household — the family ledger has to survive someone moving out. Your private data goes with you. Child profiles are managed by the adults in the household and have deliberately limited access.

3. Your content

It is yours. You give us only the permission needed to store it, show it to your household, and run the features you use — including AI features you switch on. We claim no other rights to it, and never use it for advertising or to train AI models.

4. Plans and billing

Basic is free. Paid plans are not yet available to new members — when they launch they will be clearly priced, auto-renewing monthly subscriptions that you can cancel at any time in Settings, taking effect at the end of the then-current billing period. Cancelling will always be as easy as subscribing. We will give at least 30 days' notice of any price change, applying from your next renewal.

5. AI, money and tax tools are helpers, not advisers

Nothing in Chirpy is financial, tax, legal, medical or immigration advice. The assistant is an AI, not a person — see the AI page for what it sends and what it cannot do.

Chirpy includes AI-generated content and calculators for budgets, documents and taxes. They can be wrong, incomplete or out of date. Check anything important yourself and talk to a qualified professional before acting on it — especially tax filings and immigration deadlines. The allergy features help your household cook thoughtfully, but always verify ingredients yourself; never rely on Chirpy for a medical safety decision.

6. Acceptable use

Please don't:

  • break the law, or use Chirpy to harm anyone;
  • upload malware, or probe, overload or attack the service;
  • try to reach data belonging to another household;
  • resell the service, or run the AI features beyond your plan's limits.

We may suspend accounts that do.

7. Connected services

Gmail import and Google Drive links are optional and also governed by Google's terms. Disconnecting them in Settings immediately revokes our access and deletes the stored tokens.

8. What we promise, and what we don't

We work hard to keep Chirpy fast, safe and available, but it is provided “as is”. To the extent the law allows, we disclaim implied warranties, and our total liability for any claim is limited to the greater of US$100 or what you paid us in the previous 12 months. Nothing here limits liability that cannot legally be limited, or removes consumer rights you have under your local law.

9. Ending things

You can delete your account any time in Settings — export your data first if you want a copy, and see section 10 of the Privacy Policy for exactly what gets deleted. We may suspend or end accounts that break these terms, with notice unless the situation is urgent. If we ever shut Chirpy down we will give at least 60 days' notice and a way to export everything.

10. Changes

We will post updated terms here with a new date and tell you in the app about material changes at least 14 days before they apply. Continuing to use Chirpy after that means you accept them.

11. Legal bits

These terms are governed by the laws of California, United States, except that you keep the protections and forums your local consumer law guarantees. If part of these terms is unenforceable, the rest still stands.
