My Villij App, LLC - Terms of Service
PLEASE READ THESE TERMS OF SERVICE CAREFULLY. THESE TERMS CONTAIN IMPORTANT INFORMATION, INCLUDING A BINDING ARBITRATION PROVISION AND A CLASS ACTION WAIVER, EACH OF WHICH AFFECTS YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS. BY USING THE SERVICE, YOU AGREE TO THESE TERMS.1. Acceptance of Terms
These Terms of Service ("Terms") are a legally binding agreement between you ("you" or "User") and My Villij App, LLC, a Florida limited liability company ("My Villij," "we," "us," or "our"), governing your access to and use of the My Villij mobile application, website, and related services (collectively, the "Service").
By creating an account, downloading the app, or otherwise accessing or using the Service, you agree to be bound by these Terms and our Privacy Policy, which is incorporated herein by reference. If you do not agree to these Terms, do not use the Service.2. Eligibility
You must be at least 18 years of age to create an account or use the Service. By using the Service, you represent and warrant that: (a) you are at least 18 years old; (b) you have the legal capacity to enter into a binding contract; (c) you are not prohibited from using the Service under the laws of the United States, Canada, or any other applicable jurisdiction; and (d) the information you provide is accurate and complete.3. Description of the Service
My Villij is a private, invite-only coordination and support application that helps trusted friends and family members communicate and coordinate help requests in real time. Features may include sending and receiving notifications for childcare support, pickups, schedule coordination, reminders, time-sensitive assistance, and similar coordination needs within an invite-only trusted network.
My Villij is a communication and coordination tool only. We do not provide childcare, transportation, medical, emergency, or other in-person services. All decisions about whether to act on any request, who to invite to your trusted network, and how to coordinate help are made solely by you and the members of your trusted network.4. Accounts and Trusted Networks
4.1 Account Registration
To use the Service, you must create an account by providing accurate and complete information, including your name, email address, and mobile phone number. You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account credentials and for all activities that occur under your account. You must notify us immediately of any unauthorized use of your account.4.2 Trusted Networks
You alone choose who to invite to your trusted network and whose invitations to accept. My Villij does not verify the identity, background, character, or fitness of any user. We do not conduct background checks, criminal record checks, identity verification, or any other vetting of users or invitees. You are solely responsible for evaluating the trustworthiness of any person you invite to or accept in your trusted network and for any consequences of doing so.4.3 Account Security
You agree to: (a) keep your password confidential; (b) not share your account with anyone; (c) immediately notify us of any unauthorized access; and (d) use strong authentication methods we may offer, such as two-factor authentication. You are responsible for all activity on your account.5. Subscriptions, Payments, and Refunds
5.1 Subscriptions
Certain features of the Service may require payment of a subscription fee or one-time purchase. Subscription fees, billing cycles, and features will be disclosed at the time of purchase. By subscribing, you authorize us (or the applicable app store) to charge your payment method on a recurring basis until you cancel.5.2 Billing Through App Stores
If you purchase a subscription through the Apple App Store or Google Play, your purchase is governed by the applicable app store's terms, including their billing, renewal, and refund policies. Subscriptions purchased through an app store must be managed and cancelled through that app store's account settings, not through My Villij.5.3 Automatic Renewal
Subscriptions automatically renew at the end of each billing period at the then-current rate unless cancelled before renewal. You can cancel at any time, and cancellation will take effect at the end of the current billing period. Cancelling does not entitle you to a refund of fees already paid except as required by law.5.4 Refunds
Except where required by law or the policies of an applicable app store, all payments are non-refundable. We do not provide refunds or credits for partially used subscription periods, unused features, or accidental purchases.5.5 Price Changes
We may change subscription prices from time to time. Price changes will take effect at the start of the next billing cycle after we notify you. Your continued use of the Service after a price change constitutes acceptance of the new price.6. User Content

"User Content" means any content you upload, post, share, or transmit through the Service, including messages, help requests, photos, schedules, and other communications. You retain ownership of your User Content.6.2 License to My Villij
You grant My Villij a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free license to host, store, transmit, display, reproduce, and modify your User Content solely as necessary to operate, provide, and improve the Service, including delivering your User Content to the members of your trusted network you designate. This license terminates when you delete your User Content or your account, except as needed for backups, legal compliance, or to maintain copies that have already been shared with your trusted network.6.3 Your Responsibility for User Content
You are solely responsible for your User Content and the consequences of sharing it. You represent and warrant that: (a) you own or have all necessary rights to your User Content; (b) your User Content does not violate any law or these Terms; and (c) your User Content does not infringe any third party's intellectual property, privacy, publicity, or other rights.7.

IMPORTANT: MY VILLIJ IS A COORDINATION TOOL, NOT A GUARANTEE. THE FOLLOWING TERMS LIMIT WHAT THE SERVICE PROMISES AND WHAT YOU CAN RELY ON IT FOR. READ THEM CAREFULLY.8.1 No Guarantee of Delivery
My Villij relies on third-party services (such as Twilio for SMS, and Apple and Google for push notifications), mobile networks, and the internet to deliver messages and notifications. We do not guarantee that any message, notification, or help request will be delivered, will be delivered on time, will be received, or will be read. Notifications may be delayed, undelivered, or lost due to outages, network issues, device settings, dead batteries, do-not-disturb modes, carrier issues, or other factors outside our control.8.2 Not for Emergencies
The Service is not designed for emergencies. In an emergency, including any situation involving risk to life, health, or safety, you must contact 911 or the appropriate emergency services in your jurisdiction. Do not rely on My Villij to summon emergency assistance, and do not rely on the delivery of any notification through My Villij to ensure a time-critical outcome.8.3 Responsibility Within Your Trusted Network
You are solely responsible for the people you invite to and accept in your trusted network and for any harm, loss, or damage that may result from their conduct or from your reliance on them. My Villij does not screen users, verify their identity, or vouch for their suitability to provide childcare, transportation, or any other support. Any decision to entrust the care of a child, family member, or other person to a member of your trusted network is yours alone.8.4 Carrier and Data Charges
Standard message and data rates from your mobile carrier may apply to SMS, MMS, and data usage in connection with the Service. We are not responsible for any such charges.8.5 SMS Consent and Opt-Out
By providing your mobile phone number and opting in, you consent to receive recurring SMS notifications from My Villij about help requests, reminders, coordination alerts, account activity, and security messages. Message frequency varies. Message and data rates may apply. You may opt out at any time by replying STOP to any message, and you may reply HELP or contact [email protected] for assistance. No mobile information will be shared with third parties or affiliates for marketing or promotional purposes. Consent to receive text messages is not a condition of using the Service. We send text messages only to users who have provided their own mobile number and opted in; we do not send text messages to a number entered by another user.9. Intellectual Property
9.1 My Villij IP
The Service, including all software, text, images, graphics, logos, trademarks, and other content (other than User Content), is the property of My Villij or its licensors and is protected by United States and international intellectual property laws.

Subject to your compliance with these Terms, we grant you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to access and use the Service for your personal, non-commercial use. This license does not include any right to copy, modify, distribute, sell, or commercially exploit the Service or any part of it.9.3 Feedback
If you provide us with suggestions, comments, or feedback about the Service, you grant us a perpetual, irrevocable, worldwide, royalty-free license to use, modify, and incorporate that feedback into the Service without any obligation to you.10. Termination

Upon termination, your right to use the Service ends immediately. We may delete your account and User Content, although content you have shared with your trusted network may remain visible to those recipients. Provisions of these Terms that by their nature should survive termination will survive, including Sections 6.2 (License), 8 (No Guarantee), 11 (Disclaimers), 12 (Limitation of Liability), 13 (Indemnification), 14 (Dispute Resolution), and 15 (General).11.

Dispute Resolution; Arbitration; Class Action Waiver
PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY. IT REQUIRES YOU TO RESOLVE DISPUTES WITH MY VILLIJ THROUGH BINDING INDIVIDUAL ARBITRATION AND LIMITS YOUR ABILITY TO BRING A CLASS ACTION OR JURY TRIAL.14.1 Informal Resolution

We will likewise contact you before initiating arbitration. If the dispute is not resolved within 60 days, either party may proceed to arbitration.14.2 Binding Arbitration
Any dispute, claim, or controversy arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Service that is not resolved informally will be resolved exclusively through final and binding arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association ("AAA") under its Consumer Arbitration Rules. The arbitration will be conducted in Miami-Dade County, Florida, or by telephone or video conference at the parties’ option. The arbitrator’s decision will be final and binding, and judgment on the award may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction.
14.3 Class Action Waiver
YOU AND MY VILLIJ AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN YOUR OR ITS INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS, COLLECTIVE, OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTION.
