PLEASE READ CAREFULLY. These Terms include (1) a binding individual arbitration agreement and a class-action and jury-trial waiver (Section 24) that govern how disputes are resolved and that you may opt out of within 30 days, and (2) an assumption of risk and release for in-person dates, meetings, and events (Section 14). They also limit our liability (Section 20). By using the Service, you agree to these Terms.
These Terms of Service (the “Terms”) govern your access to and use of the Your Date Genie mobile application, website, and related services (together, the “Service”), operated by Your Date Genie LLC (“Your Date Genie,” “Date Genie,” “we,” “us,” or “our”). Please read these Terms carefully. By creating an account, downloading the app, or using the Service, you agree to these Terms and to our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, do not use the Service.

2. What Date Genie Provides
Date Genie helps people plan dates and related experiences using AI-assisted recommendations, planning tools, saved content, memory features, gift ideas, and similar features. The Service provides suggestions and information only. You are solely responsible for your own decisions, bookings, travel, conduct, and safety.
3. Eligibility
You must be at least 18 years old (or the age of majority in your jurisdiction) to create an account or make a purchase. The Service is not directed to children. If we learn that we have collected personal information from a child in a manner inconsistent with applicable law, we will take steps to delete it.

You are responsible for the information you provide, for keeping your login credentials secure, and for all activity that occurs under your account. Notify us promptly at hello@yourdategenie.com if you suspect unauthorized use. You may delete your account at any time within the app; deletion is processed as described in our Privacy Policy.
5. Subscriptions, Billing, and Auto-Renewal

- Subscriptions automatically renew for the same period at the then-current price unless auto-renewal is turned off at least 24 hours before the end of the current period.
- Your Apple ID account is charged for renewal within 24 hours prior to the end of the current period.
- You can manage or cancel your subscription, and turn off auto-renewal, in your Apple ID account settings. Deleting the app does not cancel your subscription.
- Any unused portion of a free trial period, where offered, is forfeited when you purchase a subscription.
- Prices may change. If a price changes, we will seek your consent where required and the new price will not take effect until your next renewal.
- Except where required by law or by Apple’s policies, payments are non-refundable. Refund requests for App Store purchases are handled by Apple.
6. Founding and Promotional Offers
From time to time we may offer founding memberships, lifetime access, discounts, or other promotional offers. These offers are subject to the specific terms presented at the point of sale, may be limited in quantity or time, and may be modified or discontinued. Lifetime or founding access refers to the lifetime of the Service and does not create any obligation to operate the Service indefinitely.
7. License to Use the Service
Subject to these Terms, we grant you a limited, personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to use the Service for your own personal, non-commercial use. You may not copy, modify, distribute, sell, lease, reverse engineer, or attempt to extract the source code of the Service, except as permitted by law.

11. AI Features and Disclaimer
The Service uses artificial intelligence to generate plans, recommendations, messages, and similar outputs. AI outputs may be inaccurate, incomplete, biased, or out of date, and are provided for inspiration and convenience only. They are not professional advice of any kind. You are responsible for independently verifying any information before relying on it, and for your own choices and conduct.
Do not enter payment card numbers, government identification numbers, health information, or other highly sensitive information into AI prompts or free-text fields unless a feature clearly asks for it.
12. No Professional Advice
The Service is not a provider of relationship, medical, mental-health, legal, financial, or safety advice, and nothing in the Service is a substitute for professional judgment. Date and gift suggestions are for entertainment and convenience only. If you have concerns requiring professional help, consult a qualified professional.
13. Venues, Reservations, and Third-Party Services
The Service may reference restaurants, venues, events, maps, reservation services, and other third parties that we do not control. Hours, prices, availability, and details change frequently and may be inaccurate. We do not guarantee, endorse, or take responsibility for any third party, and we are not responsible for your interactions, bookings, payments, or experiences with them. Always verify hours, prices, reservations, and safety directly with the third party before you go.
Calendar integrations: The Service can connect to Apple Calendar or, optionally, Google Calendar, so you can save plans to your calendar and receive reminders. Your use of Google services is also subject to Google’s own terms, and our handling of any information accessed through Google APIs is described in our Privacy Policy and adheres to the Google API Services User Data Policy, including the Limited Use requirements. You can disconnect calendar access at any time.
14. In-Person Dates, Meetings, and Events — Assumption of Risk and Release
The Service helps you plan experiences that take place in the real world, and we may host or co-host events (including pop-ups and curated experiences). You understand and agree that:
- We do not conduct background checks or identity verification on users, partners, venues, vendors, or other people you may meet or interact with through or in connection with the Service.
- You are solely responsible for your own safety and for your interactions and conduct, both online and in person, including travel to and from any location.
- You assume all risks associated with meeting other people, attending venues or events, and participating in any in-person activity, including risks of injury, illness, property damage, emotional harm, or loss.
- To the maximum extent permitted by law, you release and waive any claims against Your Date Genie LLC and its officers, members, employees, contractors, and partners arising out of or relating to your in-person interactions, travel, venues, or events, and you agree that we are not responsible for the acts or omissions of any third party.
- You agree to use good judgment and standard safety precautions (for example, meeting in public, telling someone your plans, and arranging your own transportation).
15. Beta and Pre-Release Features
We may offer early-access, beta, TestFlight, or pre-release features that are still in development. These are provided “as is,” may contain errors, may change or be withdrawn at any time, and may be subject to additional terms. Information about unreleased features is confidential.
16. Intellectual Property
The Service, including its software, design, branding, and content (excluding Your Content), is owned by Your Date Genie LLC or its licensors and is protected by intellectual property laws. “Date Genie,” “Your Date Genie,” and related logos are our marks and may not be used without our permission.
17. Copyright and DMCA
We respect intellectual property rights. If you believe content on the Service infringes your copyright, send a notice with the information required by the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) to hello@yourdategenie.com with the subject line “DMCA Notice.” We may remove infringing content and terminate repeat infringers.
18. Privacy
Our collection and use of personal information is described in our Privacy Policy, which is incorporated into these Terms by reference. By using the Service, you acknowledge the Privacy Policy.
19. Disclaimers
The Service is provided “as is” and “as available,” without warranties of any kind, whether express, implied, or statutory, including implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement. We do not warrant that the Service will be uninterrupted, error-free, secure, or that any output will be accurate or meet your expectations. Some jurisdictions do not allow certain disclaimers, so some of the above may not apply to you.
20. Limitation of Liability
To the maximum extent permitted by law, Your Date Genie LLC and its officers, members, employees, contractors, and service providers will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary, or punitive damages, or for lost profits, data, goodwill, personal injury, or other intangible losses, arising from or related to your use of the Service, your in-person interactions or events, or any third party, whether based in contract, tort, or any other theory, even if advised of the possibility of such damages. To the maximum extent permitted by law, our total aggregate liability for any claim relating to the Service will not exceed the greater of the amount you paid us for the Service in the twelve months before the claim, or twenty-five US dollars (USD $25). Some jurisdictions do not allow certain limitations, so some of the above may not apply to you.
21. Indemnification
You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Your Date Genie LLC and its officers, members, employees, contractors, and partners from any claims, liabilities, damages, losses, and expenses (including reasonable legal fees) arising out of your use of the Service, Your Content, your in-person interactions or events, or your violation of these Terms or of any law or third-party right.
22. Termination
You may stop using the Service and delete your account at any time. We may suspend or terminate your access if you violate these Terms, if required by law, or to protect the Service or other users. Sections that by their nature should survive termination (including intellectual property, disclaimers, assumption of risk and release, limitation of liability, indemnification, arbitration, and governing law) will survive.
23. Apple App Store Additional Terms
These Terms are between you and Your Date Genie LLC only, and not with Apple Inc. (“Apple”). The following additional terms apply where you obtain the app through the Apple App Store:
- Acknowledgement: Apple is not responsible for the app or its content. To the extent these Terms provide usage rules for the app that are less restrictive than, or conflict with, the Apple Media Services Terms and Conditions, the more restrictive or conflicting Apple term applies.
- Scope of License: your license to use the app is limited to a non-transferable license to use the app on any Apple-branded products that you own or control, as permitted by the Usage Rules in the Apple Media Services Terms.
- Maintenance and Support: Your Date Genie LLC is solely responsible for providing maintenance and support for the app. Apple has no obligation to furnish any maintenance or support services.
- Warranty: Your Date Genie LLC is solely responsible for any product warranties, whether express or implied by law, to the extent not effectively disclaimed. If the app fails to conform to any applicable warranty, you may notify Apple, and Apple may refund the purchase price (if any); to the maximum extent permitted by law, Apple has no other warranty obligation with respect to the app.
- Product Claims: Your Date Genie LLC, not Apple, is responsible for addressing any claims relating to the app, including product liability, failure to conform to legal or regulatory requirements, and consumer protection claims.
- Intellectual Property: in the event of any third-party claim that the app or your use of it infringes that party’s intellectual property rights, Your Date Genie LLC, not Apple, is responsible for the investigation, defense, settlement, and discharge of such a claim.
- Legal Compliance: you represent that you are not located in a country subject to a US Government embargo or designated as terrorist-supporting, and that you are not on any US Government list of prohibited or restricted parties.
- Developer Contact: questions, complaints, or claims regarding the app should be directed to Your Date Genie LLC at hello@yourdategenie.com.
- Third-Party Beneficiary: Apple and its subsidiaries are third-party beneficiaries of these Terms and, upon your acceptance, will have the right to enforce these Terms against you as a third-party beneficiary.
24. Dispute Resolution — Binding Arbitration, Class-Action Waiver, and Jury-Trial Waiver
Please read this Section carefully — it affects your legal rights.
(a) Informal resolution first. Before starting an arbitration, you agree to first contact us at hello@yourdategenie.com with a description of your claim and to attempt in good faith to resolve it informally for at least 60 days. Many concerns can be resolved this way.
(b) Agreement to arbitrate. If we cannot resolve a dispute informally, you and Your Date Genie LLC agree that any dispute, claim, or controversy arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Service will be resolved by final and binding individual arbitration, rather than in court, except as provided below. This agreement is governed by the Federal Arbitration Act.
(c) Arbitration rules and forum. The arbitration will be administered by a recognized arbitration provider (such as the American Arbitration Association) under its applicable consumer arbitration rules. The arbitration may be conducted by phone, video, or written submissions, or in a mutually agreed location. The arbitrator may award the same individual remedies a court could.
(d) Class-action and representative-action waiver. You and Your Date Genie LLC agree that each may bring claims against the other only in an individual capacity, and not as a plaintiff or class member in any class, collective, consolidated, or representative proceeding. The arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person’s claims or preside over any form of class or representative proceeding.
(e) Jury-trial waiver. To the maximum extent permitted by law, you and Your Date Genie LLC waive any right to a trial by jury.
(f) Exceptions. Either party may (1) bring an individual claim in small-claims court if it qualifies, and (2) seek injunctive or equitable relief in court to protect intellectual property or stop unauthorized access. Nothing in this Section prevents you from contacting a government agency about a dispute.
(g) 30-day right to opt out. You may opt out of this arbitration agreement by emailing hello@yourdategenie.com with the subject line “Arbitration Opt-Out,” including your name and the email associated with your account, within 30 days of first accepting these Terms. Opting out will not affect any other part of these Terms.
(h) Severability. If the class-action waiver in Section 24(d) is found unenforceable as to a particular claim, that claim (and only that claim) will proceed in court; the rest of this Section remains in effect. If any other part of this Section is found unenforceable, it will be severed and the remainder will continue to apply.
25. Governing Law and Venue
These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of New Jersey, United States, without regard to its conflict-of-laws rules. For any dispute not subject to arbitration, you and Your Date Genie LLC agree to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts located in New Jersey and consent to personal jurisdiction there, except where applicable law gives you the right to bring a claim in your local courts.
26. Time Limit to Bring a Claim
To the extent permitted by law, any claim arising out of or relating to the Service or these Terms must be filed within one (1) year after the claim arose; otherwise it is permanently barred.
27. Export Controls and Sanctions
You represent that you will comply with all applicable export, re-export, and sanctions laws, that you are not located in an embargoed jurisdiction, and that you are not on any government list of restricted or prohibited parties.
28. Electronic Communications and Consent
By using the Service, you consent to receive communications from us electronically (such as in-app messages and emails), and you agree that electronic agreements, notices, disclosures, and other communications satisfy any legal requirement that they be in writing.
29. Force Majeure
We are not liable for any failure or delay caused by events beyond our reasonable control, including acts of God, natural disasters, outages, network or third-party failures, labor disputes, or government actions.
30. Changes to These Terms
We may update these Terms from time to time. If we make material changes, we will update the “Last Updated” date and, where appropriate, provide additional notice. Your continued use of the Service after the updated Terms take effect means you accept the changes, unless additional consent is required by law.
31. General
These Terms, together with our Privacy Policy and any offer-specific terms, are the entire agreement between you and Your Date Genie LLC regarding the Service. If any provision is found unenforceable, the remaining provisions remain in effect. Our failure to enforce any provision is not a waiver. You may not assign these Terms without our consent; we may assign them in connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets. These Terms do not create any agency, partnership, or employment relationship.
