terms of use.

1. What spaced. is

spaced. lets a private group (a “Space”) plan a trip or event together, keep a record of shared bills and who owes what, and share photos and videos with each other in original quality. Spaces are invite-only; nothing you put in a Space is public.

2. Your account

• You must be at least 16 years old.
• You sign in with Apple, Google or an email address and password. Keep your sign-in secure; you are responsible for what happens under your account.
• Give us a display name your friends will recognise. Impersonating someone else is not allowed.
• One person, one account. Do not create accounts for other people.

3. Spaces, invites and members

• Whoever creates a Space is its creator. The creator can edit the Space, regenerate its join code and delete the Space.
• Anyone with a Space’s join code or link can join it. Share codes only with the people you want in the group.
• Members see everything shared into the Space: the itinerary, photos and videos, and the bills they are part of.
• You can leave a Space at any time, as long as you do not have an unsettled balance in it (see §5).

4. Your content and the licence you give

You own what you share: your photos, videos, itinerary notes and bill details (“content”). You must have the right to share it. By sharing content into a Space you give:

• the other members of that Space a personal, non-exclusive licence to view it in the app and to download and keep a copy of it (including the original file and any metadata such as location) for their own personal, non-commercial use; and
• us a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free licence to host, store, process (for example to make thumbnails and previews, or to read a receipt you ask us to read) and deliver that content, solely to run the service for you and the members of your Spaces.

We do not use your content for advertising, we do not sell it, and we do not use it to train AI models. The licence to us ends when the content is deleted from our systems; the licence to other members covers copies they already saved.

Photos keep their embedded metadata, including location, exactly as taken (see our privacy policy).

5. Bills are records, not money

• spaced. does not hold, transfer or process money. It keeps a record of bills, how they are split and what has been marked as paid. Paying each other happens outside the app.
• Splits are calculated in whole minor units of the bill’s currency; rounding differences of a penny or cent are assigned by a fixed rule (the payer absorbs the remainder when they are on the bill). Bills are never converted between currencies.
• Only a bill’s creator or its payer can edit or delete it. A person who owes marks a payment as paid; the person owed can undo that if it is wrong. Everyone on a bill sees these changes.
• You cannot leave a Space, and a creator cannot delete a Space, while an unsettled balance remains in it. Settle up first.
• Nothing in the app is financial, tax or legal advice. The record is only as accurate as what the members enter; check it, and sort out disagreements between yourselves. We are not a party to any debt between members.
• Receipt reading is automated and can make mistakes. Always check the items and the total before you rely on them.

6. Acceptable use

The detail is in the Acceptable Use Policy, which forms part of these terms. In short:

Do not use spaced. to:

• share content that is illegal, or that infringes someone else’s rights (including photos of people who would object to them being shared);
• harass, threaten or abuse other members, or share intimate images without consent;
• share malware, spam, or content designed to break the app or other people’s devices;
• join Spaces you were not invited to, guess join codes, scrape the service, or try to get around access controls;
• reverse-engineer the app or use it to build a competing service;
• use the service for anything commercial without our written agreement.

Members of a Space are responsible for what they share into it. If you see something that breaks these rules, email hello@get-spaced.com.

7. Deleting things

• Photos and videos you uploaded can be deleted by you; the Space creator can also remove content from their Space.
• Bills can be deleted by their creator or payer. A bill that somebody has already paid towards is kept as a settled record rather than removed, so the history stays consistent for everyone on it.
• Spaces can be deleted by their creator once every balance in them is settled. Deleting a Space removes its itinerary, bills, photos and videos for all members.
• Your account can be deleted in Settings at any time. Your profile, sign-in and personal balance records are removed. Photos, videos and bills you have shared into a Space stay in that Space, credited to “Deleted member”, so the group’s shared record and other people’s bills are not broken. Delete anything you do not want to leave behind before deleting your account.

Step by step, and exactly what is removed and what stays: deleting your account.

7a. AI suggestions and maps

The app can draft an itinerary for a destination using AI, and can show places on a map. These are suggestions and third-party data: they can be wrong, out of date or closed, and a place shown on the map may not be where you expect. Check opening times, prices, bookings, entry requirements and travel advice yourself. Nothing is added to your itinerary unless you choose to add it, and we are not responsible for a plan you follow without checking, particularly anything with a safety, health or legal element.

Map and place data comes from Google, and using it also means accepting Google’s terms. Place photos belong to the people who took them and are shown with their credit.

8. Our service

• spaced. is free to use during its initial launch period. If we introduce paid features we will tell you clearly before you are charged anything.
• We will do our best to keep the service available and your content safe, but we cannot promise it will be uninterrupted or error-free. Keep your own copies of anything irreplaceable.
• We may change or discontinue features. If we ever shut spaced. down we will give you reasonable notice and a way to export your content.
• The app, the brand and the software are ours (or our licensors’). These terms do not transfer any of that to you.

9. Suspension and termination

You can stop using spaced. and delete your account at any time. We may suspend or close an account that breaks these terms, puts other users or the service at risk, or that the law requires us to close. Where reasonable we will tell you why and give you a chance to fix it. Sections 4 (the licence to other members for copies already saved), 5, 10 and 11 survive termination.

10. Liability

Nothing in these terms limits or excludes liability that cannot be limited by law, including for death or personal injury caused by negligence, or for fraud. Otherwise, to the extent the law allows:

• the service is provided “as is” and we give no warranties beyond what the law implies;
• we are not responsible for content shared by other members, for what other members do with content you shared, or for money owed between members;
• we are not liable for indirect losses, loss of data you have not backed up, or losses that were not foreseeable when you agreed to these terms;
• our total liability to you for any claim is limited to £100 or the amount you paid us in the 12 months before the claim, whichever is greater.

If you are a consumer, you keep all the statutory rights your local law gives you; these terms do not take them away.

11. Governing law

TODO for the client’s lawyer: confirm the governing law and jurisdiction, the legal entity name, its registered address and company number, and whether a consumer-friendly dispute-resolution clause is needed for the launch markets. Until confirmed, these terms are governed by the laws of England and Wales and any dispute goes to the courts of England and Wales, without prejudice to the mandatory consumer protections of the country you live in.

12. Changes to these terms

We may update these terms. For material changes we will tell you in the app or by email at least 14 days before they take effect; continuing to use spaced. after that means you accept them. The date at the top is always the current version.
