Terms of Service

Tauvio (tauvio.com) is operated by Moon Sherpa Labs. In these terms, "we", "us" and "our" mean Moon Sherpa Labs, and "you" means the person using the site or buying a plan.

Our privacy policy, at tauvio.com/privacy, explains what is processed and why. It forms part of these terms.

Using the site means accepting these terms. If you do not accept them, do not use the site.

If you are using Tauvio for an organisation, you confirm that you may bind that organisation, and "you" then means both you and it.

The stopwatch, the timer, the countdown, the alarm clock, the pomodoro timer, the three date calculators, the hours calculator, the on-screen timesheet, the overtime reference pages and the countdown pages are free to use, with no account and no usage limit. Exporting and importing your own rows, a JSON backup of everything you have entered, and printing are free as well, and we will not put them behind a price later.

We may change, improve, rename or withdraw any free feature. We do not promise that the site will be available at any particular moment or without interruption: there is no service level here, and none is implied. Everything you have entered is in your own browser and can be exported at any time, so an outage on our side does not put your work out of your reach.

Tauvio Pass is a one-time purchase, not a subscription. It adds the branded PDF document with its fixed timesheet layout, the saved library of finished weeks and months, and, on a countdown page you publish, the option to take the Tauvio mark off and to set your own accent colour and logo.

Tauvio Teams is an annual plan. It includes everything in the Pass and adds priority support and invoiced billing on request; it unlocks no further feature.

Nothing else on the site becomes paid by buying either of them, and neither moves your data anywhere: the PDF is generated in your browser and the saved library is stored in it.

Prices are listed in US dollars, and Stripe presents them in your local currency where it can, with the payment methods normal for your country. The amount shown at checkout before you confirm is the amount you pay.

We sell to you directly: Moon Sherpa Labs is the seller, and Stripe is the payment processor rather than the merchant of record. We do not currently collect sales tax, VAT or GST at checkout. Where your own jurisdiction imposes a tax on the purchase that we are not required to collect, accounting for it is yours. If that changes, the tax will be shown at checkout before you pay.

We may change our prices, and a change never affects a purchase already made. A Tauvio Teams plan renews automatically once a year at the price then in effect, until you cancel it; we will tell you by email before a renewal at a higher price.

Tauvio Pass carries a 14-day refund, no questions asked: ask within 14 days of purchase and you get your money back, whatever the reason.

Tauvio Teams can be cancelled at any time. There is no notice period and no cancellation fee, and the unused part of the year is refunded pro rata.

Both are asked for by writing to support@tauvio.com. These are the same two promises printed on the pricing page, where you can read them before you buy rather than discover them afterwards.

If you are a consumer in the European Union, the United Kingdom or another country with a statutory right to withdraw from a distance contract, that right applies in addition to this policy and is not reduced by it.

A refund ends your right to use the paid features. Because there is no account, a refund does not automatically disable the token already held by your browser; you are asked to stop using the paid features once you have been refunded, and continuing to use them after a refund is a breach of these terms.

There is no account and no password anywhere on this site. A purchase is a signed token stored in the browser you bought it in, and that browser is what unlocks the paid features.

You can move it yourself: the restore page emails a fresh link to the address you paid with. If you clear that browser's storage, restore again.

The token is yours to use, not to distribute. Publishing it, selling it or handing it to people who have not bought a plan is a breach of these terms, and so is forging or altering one.

A countdown page is content you publish, and you keep every right you have in it. You grant us a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free licence to store, reproduce, display and transmit it for the sole purpose of operating the service, which in practice means serving the page at its link and inside the embed you were given. The licence exists so that publishing works, it covers nothing else, and it ends when you delete the page, apart from copies in routine backups for a short period afterwards.

You are responsible for what you publish and you confirm that you have the right to publish it. Do not publish anything unlawful; anything that infringes another person's copyright, trademark or privacy; anything that harasses, threatens or defames someone; sexual content involving minors; malware, phishing or a link meant to deceive; or content that impersonates somebody else.

We are not obliged to monitor what is published, and we do not. We may remove or disable any countdown page at our discretion, in particular one that is reported to us, and without notice where the content appears unlawful. A page removed for breach is not refunded, because publishing one is free.

To report content, write to support@tauvio.com with the link and what is wrong with it. For a copyright complaint under the Digital Millennium Copyright Act, include all of the following: your physical or electronic signature; identification of the copyrighted work you say is infringed; identification of the material complained of and the link where it appears; your address, telephone number and email address; a statement that you believe in good faith that the use is not authorised by the copyright owner, its agent or the law; and a statement, made under penalty of perjury, that the information in your notice is accurate and that you are the owner of the right or authorised to act for the owner. We act on valid notices, and we may pass a notice to the person who published the page.

Use the tools for whatever you like, for yourself or at work. There are only a few things you may not do.

Do not break, overload or degrade the service. Automated access is welcome within what our robots.txt allows — we allow search engines and AI crawlers on purpose — but crawling at a rate that degrades the site for other people, ignoring robots.txt, or hammering an endpoint to get around a rate limit is not welcome.

Do not try to get around the paid gate, whether by forging a token, by sharing one, or by reverse-engineering how entitlements are issued.

Do not resell access to Tauvio, present it as your own product, or build a competing product out of our copy and our reference tables.

Do not use the site to do anything illegal, and do not use it to publish anything you have no right to publish.

The Tauvio name, the Tauvio mark, the design of the site, its source code, its written copy and the reference tables behind the overtime pages belong to Moon Sherpa Labs or are licensed to it, and are protected by copyright and trademark law. Using the site transfers none of that to you: what you get is a personal, revocable, non-transferable licence to use the site for its purpose.

What you make with it is yours. The PDFs, CSV files and JSON backups you generate from your own data belong to you, we claim no rights in them whatsoever, and you may use them commercially without restriction and without crediting us.

Allowing a crawler in robots.txt is permission to read and to cite, not permission to republish our copy as your own. Scraping the text of these pages in order to publish it elsewhere remains a copyright matter whatever robots.txt says.

The overtime pages, the statutory thresholds inside the calculators, the date tools and every other explanation on this site are general information. They are not legal, tax, payroll, accounting or financial advice, and no relationship of adviser and client arises from reading them.

Rules change, collective agreements and sector rules can set different terms, and a result depends entirely on the values you enter. Every overtime figure names the law it came from: check it, or ask a qualified professional, before relying on it for a payslip, a contract or a claim. Do not use a total from this site as the only basis for paying someone.

Payments are handled by Stripe, the site is hosted by Vercel, published countdown pages are stored with Supabase, the one transactional email is sent through Resend, and analytics is provided by Google and Ahrefs. Their own terms govern what they do. We do not control them and we are not responsible for their acts beyond choosing them with care and telling you that they are there; the privacy policy lists what each one receives.

THE SITE AND EVERYTHING ON IT ARE PROVIDED AS IS AND AS AVAILABLE, WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW.

In plainer words: we do not promise that the site will always be available, that it will be free of errors, that a calculation will suit your particular situation, that every browser will behave, or that a result will satisfy whoever you show it to. We test the calculations and we fix what we find, which is a commitment to care rather than a warranty of outcome.

Nothing in this section takes away a right you have as a consumer that cannot be taken away by agreement. If you are a consumer in the European Union, the United Kingdom, Australia or anywhere else with mandatory consumer guarantees, those rights apply in full and these terms do not limit them.

To the fullest extent permitted by law, we are not liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential or punitive damages, nor for lost profits, lost revenue, lost data or the cost of substitute services, however they arise.

OUR TOTAL LIABILITY TO YOU FOR ALL CLAIMS TAKEN TOGETHER IS LIMITED TO THE GREATER OF THE AMOUNT YOU PAID US IN THE TWELVE MONTHS BEFORE THE CLAIM AROSE AND TWENTY US DOLLARS.

That cap is deliberately honest about what this is: a set of tools most people pay nothing for and nobody pays much for. Nothing in this section limits liability for death or personal injury caused by our negligence, for fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation, or for anything else that cannot be limited under the law that applies to you.

If a claim is brought against us because of content you published on Tauvio, because you used the site in breach of these terms, or because you broke the law while using it, you will cover our reasonable costs and any damages arising from it. This covers those three things and nothing else.

You can stop using Tauvio whenever you like, and that ends these terms for you. Your data is in your own browser either way.

We may suspend or end your access if you breach these terms, if the law requires it, or to protect the site or other people while we look into something. We may remove a countdown page as described above. If we end a paid plan for a reason that is not your breach, we refund the unused part of it.

The sections about content ownership, disclaimers, liability, indemnity and governing law survive the end of this agreement.

We may change these terms. The current version is always on this page, and the date at the top identifies it.

A material change takes effect for the free tools when it is posted, and for a Tauvio Teams plan at the start of the next annual period, so you are never bound mid-term by terms you did not agree to. If you do not accept a change, stop using the site; for Teams, cancel, and the unused part of the year is refunded pro rata as described above.

These terms, and any dispute arising out of them or out of your use of Tauvio, are governed by the laws of the State of Texas, United States, without regard to its conflict-of-laws rules, and the state and federal courts located in Texas have jurisdiction over them.

If you are a consumer, this does not deprive you of the protection of the mandatory law of the country you live in, and it does not stop you bringing a claim in the courts of that country where that law gives you the right to.

If a provision of these terms is held unenforceable, the rest of them stand, and that provision is limited to the smallest extent that makes it enforceable.

If we do not enforce something at once, we have not given up the right to enforce it later.

You may not transfer your rights under these terms to anyone else. We may transfer ours to a successor if the business is sold, on the same terms.

These terms, the privacy policy and what the pricing page states about the plans are the entire agreement between us about Tauvio, and they replace anything said before.

Write to support@tauvio.com. It is a mailbox a person reads: there is no account, no ticket number and no phone tree.
