Effective Date: August 17, 2025
Last Updated: August 17, 2025
Acceptance of Terms
By downloading, installing, or using the Skipper mobile application (the "App"), you agree to be bound by these Terms of Use ("Terms"). If you do not agree to these Terms, do not use the App.
Description of Service
Skipper is a mobile application that allows you to write messages to yourself that are delivered as notifications after a random delay of 4-8 days. All messages are stored locally on your device and are never transmitted to Skipper's servers.
Acceptable Use
You agree to use Skipper only for lawful purposes and in accordance with these Terms. You agree not to:
Use the App in any way that violates applicable laws or regulations
Use the App to create, store, or schedule delivery of content that is illegal, harmful, threatening, abusive, defamatory, or otherwise objectionable
Attempt to reverse engineer, modify, or tamper with the App
Use the App in any manner that could damage, disable, or impair the App's functionality
Attempt to gain unauthorized access to any portion of the App or related systems
Content and Messages
You are solely responsible for the content of messages created through your device and account, including any messages created by others who have access to your unlocked device
You are responsible for maintaining the security of your device and preventing unauthorized access
Skipper's security is dependent on your device's security features (such as device locks and passcodes)
You retain ownership of the content you create
Since messages are stored locally on your device, we have no access to or control over your message content
You understand that deleted messages cannot be recovered by us, as we do not have access to your data
Privacy
Your use of the App is also governed by our Privacy Policy, which is incorporated into these Terms by reference. Please review our Privacy Policy to understand our privacy practices.
Intellectual Property
The App itself, including its software, features, functionality, design, and interface, is owned by Skipper and is protected by copyright, trademark, and other intellectual property laws. This does not include the personal messages you create, which remain your property. You are granted a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable license to use the App for personal, non-commercial purposes.
Disclaimers and Limitation of Liability
DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTIES: The App is provided "AS IS" and "AS AVAILABLE" without warranties of any kind, either express or implied. We do not warrant that the App will be error-free, uninterrupted, or free of bugs that may affect app performance.
LIMITATION OF LIABILITY: To the maximum extent permitted by law, Skipper shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, or consequential damages, including but not limited to loss of data, loss of messages, or any damages arising from your use of the App.
App Functionality
Message delivery timing is intentionally randomized and will vary
App functionality depends on your device's notification settings and system capabilities
We are not responsible for messages that fail to deliver due to device settings, system updates, or other factors beyond our control
Termination
You may stop using the App at any time by deleting it from your device. Since all data is stored locally, uninstalling the App will permanently delete all your messages. We may terminate or suspend access to the App immediately, without prior notice, if you violate these Terms.
Updates and Changes
We may update the App from time to time to improve functionality or address technical issues. We reserve the right to modify these Terms at any time. Changes will be effective when posted, and we will update the "Last Updated" date. Continued use of the App after changes constitutes acceptance of the new Terms.
Governing Law
These Terms are governed by the laws of Washington State, United States, without regard to conflict of law provisions.
Severability
If any provision of these Terms is found to be unenforceable, the remaining provisions will remain in full force and effect.
