Terms of service

1. The agreement

These terms are a contract between you and <registered legal entity>, <registered business address> — “we” and “us” below — covering do-deewane.com and the DoDeewane app. By creating an account or using the service you accept them. If you are accepting on behalf of a planning firm or a vendor business, you confirm you can bind that business, and “you” means it.

Our privacy policy explains what we do with data and forms part of this agreement.

2. Who may use it

You must be at least 18 and legally able to enter a contract. You may not use DoDeewane if a law that applies to you prohibits it, or if we have previously closed your account for a breach of these terms.

3. Your account

• Give accurate details, and keep your email address current — we use it to reach you.
• Keep your password and your Google sign-in to yourself. Anything done through your account is treated as done by you, so tell us promptly at admin.dodeewane@gmail.com if you think someone else has got in.
• One account per person. Weddings are shared by inviting people to a workspace, each with their own role, not by passing one login around.
• The role you choose at sign-up — bride or groom, wedding planner, vendor, family, guest — determines what the product shows you. Choosing a role you are not entitled to, to reach a surface that is not yours, is a breach of these terms.

4. Workspaces, roles and who can see what

A wedding lives in a workspace. Whoever creates it, and anyone they make an owner, controls who else is invited and what each person may do. If you are invited to someone’s wedding, the workspace and its contents remain theirs, not yours — they can change your role or remove you at any time, and we will act on their instruction rather than mediate between you.

Roles are enforced by the app, but they are a permission system, not a vault. Do not put something into a shared workspace that would be a disaster for a collaborator to see.

5. Your content

Everything you put into DoDeewane stays yours. We claim no ownership of your guest list, your budget, your contracts or your photographs.

To operate the service we need your permission to do the obvious mechanical things with it: store it, back it up, transmit it between the people you have shared it with, display it back to you, and pass the relevant part to the providers in section 6 of the privacy policy. That permission is limited to running and improving DoDeewane for you, is non-exclusive, and ends when you delete the content or close your account. We do not use your wedding to train AI models or to advertise to anyone.

You are responsible for having the right to upload what you upload — including photographs taken by a photographer whose contract may restrict their use, and including other people’s personal details, which section 8 of the privacy policy explains.

6. Acceptable use

Do not:

• Use DoDeewane to break the law, or to harass, defraud or impersonate anyone.
• Upload malware, or anything you have no right to share — someone else’s copyrighted material included.
• Try to reach data that is not yours: another workspace, another account, or a part of the product your role does not open.
• Probe, scrape or overload the service, work around its rate limits or access controls, or reverse-engineer it except where the law says you may.
• Resell DoDeewane or offer it as your own product. Planners and vendors are welcome to use it for client work — that is what it is for — but the account relationship is with you.
• Use the vendor directory to send bulk unsolicited marketing to couples, or to harvest contact details.

7. Vendors, planners and the directory

DoDeewane helps you find, track and coordinate the suppliers on your wedding. It is not a party to anything you agree with them. Any booking, quote, deposit, cancellation or dispute is strictly between you and that vendor or planner.

A listing in the directory is not a recommendation, an endorsement or a vetting. We do not verify a vendor’s licences, insurance, pricing or quality, and payment milestones recorded in the app are your own bookkeeping — no money moves through DoDeewane. Check your suppliers as carefully as you would if you had found them anywhere else.

If you list a business here, what you publish must be accurate and yours to publish, and we may remove a listing that is not.

8. The AI features, and what they are not

DoDeewane includes AI-assisted features: an assistant, contract and quote scanning, seating and timeline suggestions, outfit try-on and menu ideas. They are useful and they are also, unavoidably, sometimes wrong. Everything they produce is a draft for you to check.

Contract scanning reads a document and pulls out what look like dates, amounts and terms. It is a reading aid, not legal advice, and it is not a substitute for a lawyer or for reading the contract yourself. The same goes for budget figures, currency conversions and payment schedules: exchange rates are indicative and the arithmetic is a planning tool, not financial advice. Do not sign anything, or move money, on the strength of what this app extracted.

You remain responsible for decisions you make with these outputs, and we are not liable for decisions based on them.

9. What it costs

DoDeewane is currently free to use while the product is being built out. If we introduce charges, we will tell account holders by email before they apply, and no existing account will start being billed without agreeing to it first. Paid terms, when they exist, will be set out here.

10. Availability, and the state of the product

DoDeewane is early software under active development. Features will change, and some will be removed. We do not promise a particular level of uptime, and we may take the service down for maintenance.

To the extent the law allows, the service is provided as is and as available, without warranties of any kind, express or implied — including merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose and non-infringement. We do not warrant that it will be uninterrupted, error-free, or that it will not lose data.

Keep your own copies of anything you cannot afford to lose. A signed vendor contract should exist somewhere other than a wedding-planning app, ours included.

11. Limits on what we owe you

To the fullest extent the law allows, neither we nor our suppliers are liable for indirect, incidental, special or consequential losses, nor for lost profits, lost business, or lost or corrupted data, however caused.

Our total liability to you for all claims connected with DoDeewane is limited to the greater of the amount you paid us in the twelve months before the claim, or US $100. While the service is free, that means US $100.

Nothing here excludes liability that cannot lawfully be excluded — including for fraud, or for death or personal injury caused by negligence. Some jurisdictions do not allow some of these exclusions, and in those places the limits apply only as far as they are permitted, leaving your statutory rights as a consumer intact.

12. Ending it

You can stop using DoDeewane whenever you like, and ask us to delete your account as described in section 10 of the privacy policy.

We may suspend or close an account that breaches these terms, that we are legally required to close, or that puts other users or the service at risk. Except where the breach is serious or the law prevents it, we will warn you first and give you a chance to put it right — and, where we reasonably can, a chance to export your data.

Sections 5, 7, 8, 10, 11 and 13 survive the end of this agreement, along with anything else that by its nature should.

13. Governing law and disputes

These terms are governed by the laws of <state / country>, without regard to conflict-of- law rules, and the courts of <state / country> have exclusive jurisdiction over any dispute. If you are a consumer, this does not deprive you of the protection of mandatory laws in the country where you live, or of the right to bring proceedings there.

Before starting anything formal, please write to admin.dodeewane@gmail.com. Nearly everything is quicker to fix that way.

14. Everything else

• Changes. We may update these terms. Material changes are announced by email to account holders before they take effect, and the date at the top changes. Continuing to use DoDeewane means accepting the new version; if you would rather not, close your account.
• The whole agreement. These terms and the privacy policy are the entire agreement between us about DoDeewane, and replace anything said earlier.
• If a clause fails. If any part is held unenforceable, the rest stays in force.
• No waiver. If we do not enforce something straight away, we have not given up the right to enforce it later.
• Transfer. You may not transfer your rights under these terms without our consent. We may transfer ours to a successor if the business is sold, on notice to you.
