Terms of service

These terms are an agreement between you and FollowUs AI LLC ("we"), which runs Beans. By creating an account or using Beans, you agree to them. If you don't agree, please don't use Beans.

What Beans is

Beans is a daily planner that runs in your browser. You write down tasks, plan them across your days and give them times on a Timebox.

Your account

• You need an account to use the planner. Give us accurate details and keep your sign-in secure. You're responsible for what happens in your account.
• You must be at least 13. If you're under 18, or under the age of majority where you live, a parent or guardian must agree to these terms for you.
• An account is for one person.

Free trial

Each account can have one 7-day free trial. You need a card to start it. When the trial ends, your subscription begins and your card is charged, unless you cancel before then. If you cancel during the trial, you aren't charged.

Subscriptions and billing

• Beans is a paid subscription. Plans and prices are shown on the pricing page and at checkout before you pay. Any sales tax or VAT is shown at checkout.
• Stripe processes payments. By subscribing, you allow us to charge your payment method through Stripe at the start of each billing period until you cancel.
• Your subscription renews automatically at the end of each billing period until you cancel.
• You can switch between monthly and yearly in Manage subscription. Moving to yearly happens right away, with credit for the unused part of your month. Moving to monthly takes effect when your paid year ends.
• If a payment fails, Stripe tries again and you keep access meanwhile. If it still can't be collected, your subscription ends.
• When your trial or subscription ends, the planner locks until you subscribe again. Your tasks and settings stay saved, and subscribing again brings them back.
• If we change the price, we'll tell you at least 30 days before your subscription renews at the new price, and you can cancel before then.

Cancelling and refunds

• Cancel any time in Settings, under Subscription, then Manage subscription, or by emailing us. Cancelling takes effect at the end of your trial or the period you've paid for, and you keep access until then.
• If you're charged and change your mind, email support@followusai.com within 14 days of that charge and we'll refund it in full.
• After 14 days, charges aren't refunded, except where the law requires it.

Discount codes

We sometimes offer discount codes, such as at launch. Each code has its own discount, how long it lasts (such as your first 3 months), a limit on how many people can use it, and an end date, all shown with the offer and at checkout. A code works only for a new subscription and only on the plans named with the offer. It can't be combined with another code and has no cash value. When the discount ends, your subscription renews at the regular price shown at checkout.

Your tasks

You own what you put in Beans. You give us permission to store, copy and show it only as needed to run Beans for you, such as syncing it between your devices and keeping backups. The privacy policy explains how we handle it.

Using Beans fairly

Don't use Beans to break the law, to get into other people's accounts or our systems, to send malware, or to overload or disrupt the service. Don't scrape Beans, resell it, or copy its design or code to build a competing product.

Changes to Beans

We keep improving Beans, so features may change. We work to keep it running, but we can't promise it will always be available or free of errors. If we ever shut Beans down, we'll tell you at least 30 days before, and refund any time you've paid for but can't use.

Ending your account

You can stop using Beans and ask us to delete your account at any time by emailing support@followusai.com. Deleting an account doesn't by itself cancel a subscription, so when you ask us to delete yours, we cancel your subscription first. We may suspend or close an account that breaks these terms or puts Beans or other people at risk. Where we can, we'll tell you first and give you a chance to get a copy of your data.

Disclaimer

Beans is provided "as is". To the extent the law allows, we don't make promises about it beyond what these terms say, including that it will meet your needs. Beans helps you plan, but you're responsible for your own schedule, deadlines and decisions.

Limit of liability

To the extent the law allows, we aren't liable for indirect or consequential losses, such as lost profits or missed deadlines, and our total liability for any claim about Beans is limited to the greater of what you paid us in the 12 months before the claim and $50. Nothing in these terms limits rights you have under consumer law that can't be waived.

Governing law

These terms are governed by the laws of the State of Michigan, USA. Any dispute goes to the state or federal courts in Genesee County, Michigan, and either of us may use small claims court where it applies. If you're a consumer in the European Economic Area or the UK, you also keep the protection of your home country's laws and can bring a claim in its courts.

Changes to these terms

When we change these terms, we update the date at the top. For a change that matters, we'll tell you by email or in the planner at least 14 days before it applies. If you keep using Beans after that, the new terms apply.
