Terms of Service - Copl

Version 1.1 - effective from 2026-06-12

These terms explain what you and we have agreed to when you use Copl. We've tried to write them in plain language - if anything is unclear, get in touch.

Note: this is an English translation of the Swedish original. The Swedish version is the authoritative one in case of any discrepancy. Synchronize both files when updating the terms.

Who runs the service

Pontus Brunzell, sole trader (enskild näringsidkare), operates the Copl app ("Copl", "the service", "we", "us"). Users are referred to as "you" (individual) or "you both" (when in a couple).

Contact: copl-app@outlook.com

Note during development: when the service moves to a company structure, this section will be updated with company name, registration number, and contact details.

1. What Copl is

Copl is a mobile app for couples that helps you stay on top of what concerns your relationship - calendar, tasks, family, finances, intimacy, and more - in one place. The service consists of the app, our database, and our support.

2. Who may use Copl

• You must be at least 18 years old to create an account (the app is age-rated 18+ and includes an optional intimacy module).
• You must create the account yourself. You may not create an account for someone else.
• You and your partner are the only ones who should be able to log into your accounts. Don't share login credentials with others.
• If you log in via Sign in with Apple or Google, you are responsible for that account being yours.

3. What you agree to

By using Copl, you agree:

• Not to misuse the service - no attempts to hack, overload, break into others' accounts, or automate use without our permission.
• Not to upload illegal content - material that violates Swedish law is not allowed. This includes (among other things) child sexual abuse material, hate crimes, copyright infringement, or threats.
• To respect your partner - Copl is a shared tool. Don't use it as a platform for harassment or abuse.
• To read our privacy policy - it explains what we do with your data. By using the service, you also agree to it.

4. Your content and your rights

• You own what you enter. Texts, notes, photos - everything you write is yours.
• You grant us technical permission to store your content in our database, show it to your partner within the same relationship, and back it up according to our privacy policy.
• We never use your content to train AI models, for marketing, or share it with third parties beyond what's described in the privacy policy.
• When you delete your account, all your content is deleted within 30 days.

5. What we promise and don't promise

We do our best to:

• Keep the service running (but no guarantee of 100% uptime)
• Protect your data technically (RLS, end-to-end encryption of sensitive fields)
• Respond to your questions in reasonable time (usually within a few days)
• Notify you of major changes to the service

We do not promise:

• That the service will always be available or bug-free
• That the service is suitable for all types of relationships or needs
• That we will always run the service - if it becomes unreasonable to continue, we'll notify you in good time and give you time to export your data
• That future features will arrive on any specific timeline
• That your content can always be restored from system failures (even though we have backups, they are time-limited)

6. Fees

• Currently, Copl is free. No fees, no ads, no in-app purchases.
• If pricing is introduced in the future, it will never apply retroactively to data you've already entered. You'll get clear information at least 30 days in advance and the opportunity to export/delete your data at no cost.

7. What happens when a relationship ends

Copl is built for couples. When your shared relationship ends in the app:

• Both parties retain access to their own data until both consent to permanent deletion.
• Paused mode (Settings → Pause the relationship) makes the data read-only without deletion.
• Ended mode (Settings → End the relationship) marks the relationship as dissolved, soft-deletes shared data, and permanently deletes within 30 days.
• One of you cannot unilaterally delete the other's or the shared data - such deletion requires a decision from both.
• Your own data and your own account, however, you can always delete, regardless of what your partner wants. This follows from your right to erasure under the GDPR (Art. 17) and cannot be made conditional on anyone else. This also covers information about you that your partner entered (e.g. in the intimacy module).

This is the same principle as a "divorce mode": shared data should be wound down with dignity, not erased in the heat of the moment - while each person always retains full control over their own data.

8. Closing your account

You can at any time:

• Pause your usage without deleting anything (Settings → Pause)
• Delete your account entirely (Settings → Delete account) - all your data disappears within 30 days
• Export all your data before leaving (Settings → Export our data)

We may in turn terminate your account if you:

• Violate these terms (we'll notify you first)
• Are inactive for more than 3 years (we'll notify you and give 30 days to log in)
• Request it

9. Limitation of liability

Copl is provided "as is". We do our best but cannot be held responsible for:

• Loss of data beyond what can reasonably be expected (we have backups but not guaranteed for everything)
• Indirect damages (lost business opportunities, emotional distress, etc.)
• Damage to your device (phone) from using the app
• Consequences of misuse by other users (if your partner acts irresponsibly in the app)

Maximum liability: In case of damage claims, our total liability is limited to 0 SEK because the service is free. If fees are introduced in the future, this changes to "the amount you've paid in the last 12 months".

However, this does not apply to:

• Gross negligence or intent from our side
• Violation of GDPR or other mandatory legislation
• Anything that under Swedish law cannot be disclaimed

10. Dispute resolution and applicable law

• Swedish law applies to these terms and your use of the service.
• Disputes are first resolved through discussion between you and us.
• GDPR matters may also be directed to the Swedish Authority for Privacy Protection (IMY, https://www.imy.se).
• Other disputes are resolved in general court with Stockholm District Court as the first instance.

If you are a consumer under Swedish law (which you are as a private individual), consumer protection laws apply in addition - they may give you rights beyond what's stated here.

11. Changes to the terms

We may update these terms. For major changes:

• We'll notify you in the app and/or via email
• We give you 30 days to read and accept or close your account
• For minor changes (language adjustments, clarifications) a notice in the app is enough

12. Miscellaneous

• If part of these terms is invalid under Swedish law, the rest of the terms still apply.
• If we don't act on an individual breach of the terms, that doesn't mean we've given up the right to act on future breaches.
• These terms and the privacy policy together constitute the entire agreement between us regarding the service.
