Terms of Service
Last updated: October 29, 2026
Welcome to Year in Review. These Terms of Service (“Terms”) govern your use of the Year in Review mobile application and related services. By downloading, accessing, or using the app, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use the app.
1. Who We Are
Year in Review is operated by SideStreet Software Inc. If you have questions about these Terms, contact [email protected].
2. The App
Year in Review is a personal tracking app. You can create custom trackers, log daily entries, add notes and tags, set goals, and review your history through calendars, streaks, and year-in-review visualizations. You can also connect an external AI assistant to your account so it can read and update your trackers.
The app is currently offered free of charge. We may introduce paid features or pricing in the future, but if we do, we will communicate that clearly before it takes effect.
3. Eligibility and Account
You must be at least 13 years old to use the app, or older if the law where you live requires a higher minimum age. If you are below the age at which you can legally use the app on your own, you may use it only with any required consent from a parent or legal guardian.
You can use most of the app without creating an account. When you first open the app, we create a random identifier associated with your installation or device so the app can function and your data can be stored.
You may also choose to sign in with Apple or Google. If you do, you are responsible for maintaining the security of your account and for activity that occurs under it.
4. Your Content
As between you and SideStreet, you retain ownership of the content you create in the app, including trackers, entries, notes, tags, goals, and chat messages.
By using the app, you grant us a limited, non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free license to host, store, process, reproduce, display, and transmit your content only as needed to operate, maintain, improve, and provide the service to you.
We do not make your content public to other users. We also do not use your entries, notes, or chat messages to train AI models.
You are responsible for the content you create and share through the app. You agree not to upload, create, or share content that is illegal, infringes someone else’s rights, or otherwise violates these Terms.
5. AI Assistants
If you connect an external AI assistant, its responses come from that assistant and its provider, not from us, and its provider’s own terms apply to your use of it.
AI output can be wrong, incomplete, outdated, biased, or misleading. It is not medical, mental health, legal, financial, or other professional advice, and it should not be relied on as a substitute for professional judgment.
If you think you may be having a medical or mental health emergency, do not rely on an AI assistant. Contact local emergency services or a qualified professional right away.
A connected assistant can change your trackers and todos. You are responsible for the changes it makes on your behalf and for decisions you make based on AI output.
6. Acceptable Use
You agree that you will not: - use the app for any unlawful purpose or in violation of applicable law - attempt to gain unauthorized access to the app, our systems, or another user’s account - interfere with, disrupt, or overload the app or related infrastructure - reverse engineer, decompile, or disassemble the app, except where applicable law does not allow those restrictions - use bots, scraping tools, or other automated methods to access or interact with the app without our written permission - upload or submit content that is illegal, harmful, harassing, infringing, deceptive, or otherwise violates the rights of others - impersonate another person or misrepresent your identity or affiliation
If you connect Year in Review to an external AI assistant (for example by adding the connector in Claude or ChatGPT, or with an API key created in an earlier version of the app), you remain responsible for how that assistant accesses your account. Do not share API keys with people you do not trust. We rate-limit requests per user to protect the service; exceeding the limits results in temporary errors. Using the connector to evade rate limits, scrape third-party services, or attempt to access other users’ data violates these Terms.
We may suspend or restrict access to the app if we reasonably believe you have violated these Terms or are using the app in a way that creates risk for us, other users, or the service.
7. Intellectual Property
The app, including its software, design, branding, text, graphics, and other content provided by us, is owned by or licensed to SideStreet Software Inc. and is protected by intellectual property laws.
Subject to these Terms, we grant you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to use the app for your personal, non-commercial use. No ownership rights are transferred to you.
8. Third-Party Services
The app relies on services provided by third parties, including Apple, Google, Supabase, Sentry, and our AI provider. Their services may be governed by separate terms, conditions, and privacy policies. We are not responsible for third-party services or for acts or omissions of third parties that are outside our reasonable control.
9. Availability and Changes
We work to keep the app available and functioning, but we do not guarantee that it will always be available, uninterrupted, error-free, or secure.
We may add, remove, modify, or discontinue features from time to time. When reasonably practical, we will provide notice of material changes in the app.
10. Disclaimers
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, THE APP IS PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE” WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, WHETHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED, STATUTORY, OR OTHERWISE. THIS INCLUDES IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, AND THAT THE APP WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, ERROR-FREE, OR MEET YOUR EXPECTATIONS.
WE DO NOT WARRANT THAT AI OUTPUT WILL BE ACCURATE, COMPLETE, OR SUITABLE FOR ANY PARTICULAR PURPOSE.
Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits rights that cannot be excluded under applicable consumer protection law.
11. Limitation of Liability
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, SIDESTREET SOFTWARE INC. AND ITS DIRECTORS, OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES, CONTRACTORS, AND AGENTS WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR FOR ANY LOSS OF DATA, PROFITS, REVENUE, GOODWILL, OR OTHER INTANGIBLE LOSSES, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO YOUR USE OF OR INABILITY TO USE THE APP, EVEN IF WE HAVE BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, OUR TOTAL LIABILITY FOR ANY CLAIM ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THE APP OR THESE TERMS WILL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF: (A) THE AMOUNT YOU PAID US FOR THE APP IN THE 12 MONTHS BEFORE THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM; OR (B) CAD $50.
Nothing in these Terms limits liability that cannot legally be limited or excluded.
12. Indemnity
To the extent permitted by law, you agree to indemnify and hold harmless SideStreet Software Inc. and its directors, officers, employees, contractors, and agents from claims, losses, liabilities, and expenses, including reasonable legal fees, arising out of your misuse of the app, your violation of these Terms, or your violation of another person’s rights.
13. Suspension and Termination
You may stop using the app at any time. You may also delete your account from Settings > Account > Delete Account.
We may suspend, restrict, or terminate your access to the app if we reasonably believe you have violated these Terms, created risk or possible legal exposure for us or others, or if we are required to do so by law.
Upon termination, your right to use the app ends immediately. Sections that by their nature should survive termination will continue to apply, including the sections on Your Content, Intellectual Property, Disclaimers, Limitation of Liability, Indemnity, Governing Law and Disputes, and General Terms.
14. App Store Terms
These Terms are between you and SideStreet Software Inc., not Apple or Google. Apple and Google are not responsible for the app or its content and have no obligation to provide maintenance or support for it.
Your right to use the app is limited to a device you own or control and must comply with any applicable terms of the Apple App Store or Google Play.
To the extent required by applicable app marketplace terms, Apple and Google and their subsidiaries may be third-party beneficiaries of these Terms.
15. Governing Law and Disputes
These Terms are governed by the laws of British Columbia and the federal laws of Canada applicable there, without regard to conflict of laws rules.
Any dispute arising out of or relating to these Terms or the app will be brought in the courts located in Vancouver, British Columbia, unless mandatory law where you live allows you to bring a claim in another court that cannot be waived.
To the extent permitted by law, claims must be brought in an individual capacity and not as part of a class, collective, or representative action.
To the extent permitted by law, any claim arising out of or relating to these Terms or the app must be brought within one year after the claim arose.
16. General Terms
These Terms, together with our Privacy Policy, form the entire agreement between you and us regarding the app.
If any provision of these Terms is found unenforceable, the rest will remain in effect.
Our failure to enforce a provision is not a waiver of our right to do so later.
You may not assign or transfer these Terms without our prior written consent. We may assign these Terms in connection with a merger, acquisition, reorganization, or sale of assets.
We are not responsible for delays or failures caused by events beyond our reasonable control.
If these Terms are translated and there is a conflict between versions, the English version controls.
17. Changes to These Terms
We may update these Terms from time to time. If we make material changes, we will provide notice in the app or by other appropriate means and update the “Last updated” date above. By continuing to use the app after the updated Terms take effect, you agree to the revised Terms, to the extent permitted by law. If you do not agree, stop using the app.
