Terms of Service

Last updated: August 18, 2026

These terms apply when you use Choresome, on both the free plan and the paid plan (Choresome Pro). How we handle your data is described separately in our Privacy Policy.

1. Who We Are

Choresome is operated by Santeri Kangas in Finland.

You can reach us at support@choresome.app. If you are signed in, the feedback form in the app reaches the same place.

2. What Choresome Is

Choresome is a household chore management app. A free plan is available to everyone, and a paid plan unlocks additional features for a whole household. These terms apply to both.

3. Your Account

You need an account to use Choresome. Keep your login secure and use accurate contact details, since your email address is how you sign in and how we reach you.

You must be at least 16 years old to create an account, or have permission from a parent or guardian. A household owner can add members who do not sign in themselves - if you do that, you are responsible for what you enter about them.

4. Households and Shared Content

Choresome is built around a household. Anything you add to a shared part of the app - chores, scores, shared lists, history - is visible to the other members of your household. Do not put anything in there that you would not want them to see.

The person who created the household can add and remove members, and members can leave at any time.

5. Encryption, and What That Means for Your Data

Your household's content is end-to-end encrypted with a key derived from a recovery code that only your household holds. This is described in our Privacy Policy.

We cannot recover your content if the recovery code is lost. We do not hold the key, so there is no reset we can perform, no backup we can restore from and no support request that can undo it. Keeping the recovery code safe is your responsibility, and losing it means the encrypted content is permanently unreadable. This is a deliberate property of the design, not a fault.

6. Choresome Pro

  • Price: EUR 3.49 per month for the whole household, VAT included. The price shown at checkout is the total you pay.
  • Billing: Your subscription starts when your first payment goes through and renews automatically each month on the same date, charged to the payment method you gave at checkout, until you cancel. Payments are handled by Stripe - we never see or store your card details.
  • Who manages the plan: Any member of a household can buy Pro, and it unlocks for everyone in that household. The member who bought it is the one who can change or cancel it.
  • Cancelling:You can cancel at any time from "Manage subscription" in the app. There is no notice period and no cancellation fee. Your household keeps Pro until the end of the period already paid for, and is not charged again after that.
  • Changing your mind: If you cancel within 14 days of your first payment, email support@choresome.app and we will refund that payment in full.
  • Price changes: We will tell you by email at least 30 days before any price change takes effect, so you can cancel first if you would rather not continue.
  • If you stop paying Pro: Your household returns to the free plan. Your data stays where it is - Pro-only features simply stop being available.

7. Acceptable Use

Use Choresome for managing your own household. Do not use it to store or share illegal content, to harass anyone, to break into other people's accounts or households, to probe or attack the service, or to access it through automated means that put load on it beyond ordinary use.

If an account is used this way we may suspend or close it. Where it is reasonable to do so, we will tell you why first.

8. Availability

We work to keep Choresome running, but we do not guarantee it will be available without interruption. Maintenance, outages at our infrastructure providers, and bugs all happen. We may add, change or remove features over time. If we remove something significant that you are paying for, you can cancel and we will refund the unused part of the period.

9. Liability

Nothing in these terms limits your statutory rights as a consumer, or our liability for death, personal injury, fraud, or anything else that cannot be limited by law.

Beyond that, and to the extent the law allows: Choresome is provided as it is, we are not liable for indirect or consequential loss, and our total liability to you is limited to the amount you paid us in the 12 months before the claim. We are not liable for encrypted content that becomes unreadable because a recovery code was lost, as described in Section 5.

10. Ending These Terms

You can stop using Choresome at any time and delete your account from within the app, which deletes your data as described in our Privacy Policy.

We may end these terms if you seriously or repeatedly breach them. If we do that while you have paid for Pro, we will refund the unused part of the period unless the breach is the reason we ended it.

11. Changes to These Terms

We may update these terms. If a change materially affects you we will tell you by email or in the app before it takes effect, and you can cancel a paid plan before it applies. Continuing to use Choresome after that means you accept the updated terms.

12. Law and Disputes

These terms are governed by Finnish law. As a consumer you also keep the mandatory protections of the country you live in, and you can bring proceedings in your own country's courts.

If something goes wrong, email us first - most things are quicker to fix that way. If we cannot resolve it, a consumer in Finland can take the matter to the Consumer Disputes Board (kuluttajariitalautakunta.fi), after contacting the Consumer Advisory Service (kkv.fi/kuluttajaneuvonta). A consumer elsewhere in the EU can use the equivalent body in their own country.
