Here's the agreement between you and Dear Date. It's short on purpose. If anything in here is unclear, tell me and I'll fix the wording.
Dear Date is a private journal for your dating life. It is not therapy, coaching, matchmaking, or professional advice. It's a space to log what happened and notice your own patterns. Use it as that.
One account per person. You're responsible for the email and sign-in method tied to it. If you share your account or someone else gets in, the entries they see are on you, not Dear Date.
Your entries are yours. You own the content you write — Dear Date has no claim to it, no right to publish or sell it, no interest in reading it. We store it so we can show it back to you, and that's it.
If you ever post in the Plus community (the Back Porch, when it launches), that's separate — those posts are visible to other Plus members under the pseudonym you choose. Be thoughtful about what you share there.
Don't use Dear Date to harass anyone, impersonate anyone, share private information about people without their consent, post sexual content involving minors, or do anything illegal. If you do, your account ends.
Dear Date Plus is a paid subscription. Apple bills you through your App Store account — not us. Pricing, billing, free trials, and renewal dates are handled by Apple and shown in the app before you buy.
To cancel: open the Settings app on your iPhone → tap your name at the top → Subscriptions → Dear Date. Cancel anytime. You keep Plus through the end of the period you already paid for.
Refunds are handled by Apple at reportaproblem.apple.com. We can't issue refunds directly — if you want one, that's the link.
If you break these terms — especially the harassment / illegal-content rules — we may suspend or close your account. We'll tell you why if we can. You can close your own account anytime by emailing hi@deardate.club.
Dear Date is provided "as is." Things break sometimes. The data you write is important to you, so we keep backups, but no software is bulletproof — please don't use Dear Date as your only copy of anything you can't afford to lose.
Dear Date isn't qualified to give you life advice. The patterns the app surfaces are observations, not prescriptions. If you're working through something hard, talk to someone whose job that is.
To the maximum extent allowed by law, Dear Date isn't liable for indirect, incidental, or consequential damages arising from your use of the app. Where liability can't be excluded, it's limited to the amount you paid us in the past 12 months.
If we update these terms, we'll change the "last updated" date at the top and notify you in the app before the change takes effect. Continuing to use Dear Date after that means you're cool with the new version.
Dear Date is operated by Sunny Media LLC, a New York limited liability company. When these terms say "Dear Date" or "we," that's who.
These terms are governed by the laws of the state of New York, without regard to conflict-of-laws rules.
Anything unclear, anything off, anything you'd want changed: hi@deardate.club. A real person reads every email.
