Stay in Touch

Terms

The short version: sit-app.com is a web app for writing and sending personal notes to people you know, and for planning to see them. It is an early product, offered free while it takes shape. Use it in good faith. Don’t try to break it, don’t impersonate other people, and only send to people you actually know. The site is provided as is, without warranty, and our liability is limited to the maximum extent the law permits.

About these terms

These Terms of Service (“Terms”) govern your use of sit-app.com (the “Site”) and any related communications. By using the Site or submitting the form, you agree to these Terms.

The Site is operated by SIT App, Inc., a Delaware corporation, referred to here as “Stay in Touch,” “we,” or “us.”

If you have a question, write to hi@sit-app.com.

What we offer

The Site lets you:

  • write a “SIT” (a short, personal catch-up note) and send it to people you know, from your own connected email account or through ours,
  • receive notes and replies from people who write to you,
  • bring in your contacts so the app can help you reach them,
  • plan get-togethers and events, and collect RSVPs from your guests.

The product is free and early. Nothing here is a purchase, a contract for future features, or a reservation for any eventual paid product. Some features are offered to a limited group while we test them; we choose participants at our discretion.

What you send

You are responsible for what you write and who you send it to. Send only to people you actually know. Do not impersonate anyone, and do not send content that is unlawful, harassing, or designed to interfere with our systems or anyone else’s. Recipients can reply, opt out of app-sent mail, or opt out of texts at any time, and we honor those choices.

Text messages

Program name: Stay in Touch. Two kinds of text message come from us, and they work differently. Account texts are sign-in codes and alerts telling you someone wrote to you. You turn these on yourself by verifying your own mobile number in Settings and checking the consent box. Separately, when a member writes you a note or invites you to a get-together, we may deliver that message to the mobile number they have for you, along with updates about that specific plan such as a change of time or place, a reminder before it, or a cancellation. When someone answers a note or invitation you sent, we may deliver their reply to you the same way.

Message frequency varies. An account text is sent only when something happens that you asked to hear about, or when you request a sign-in code. A note or invitation arrives when a member sends you one, and updates about it arrive only if that specific plan changes, has a reminder coming due, or is called off. If a note goes unanswered, you may receive at most one reminder about it, never more than one per note.

For help, reply HELP to any message or write to hi@sit-app.com. To stop, reply STOP to any message. That stops texts from every member, not only the one who wrote to you. Reply START to resume. You can also turn account texts off in Settings.

Message and data rates may apply. Carriers are not liable for delayed or undelivered messages. How we handle your phone number is described in our Privacy policy. Full program details, including the opt-in screens, are at sit-app.com/sms.

The writing coach

The app includes a writing coach that suggests structure and improvements for your drafts. It is informal, free, and provided on an as-is basis. We are not offering legal, financial, medical, or psychological advice. The content of the message you write is yours.

Intellectual property

The Stay in Touch name, logos, site copy, and site design are ours, and we reserve all rights in them. Example SITs that we send you for reference are ours; you are welcome to read them and to take inspiration, but please do not republish them. Anything you write yourself, including drafts produced during a coaching session, is yours.

If you and we collaborate on a draft and we want to reference an anonymized version of it in writing about the product, we will ask you first.

Acceptable use

Don’t:

  • attempt to break, probe, or stress-test the Site or its infrastructure,
  • attempt to extract data that isn’t yours,
  • sign up with a fake or someone else’s email, or claim an address or phone number you don’t own,
  • use the Site to send bulk unsolicited mail or texts to people you don’t know,
  • use the Site for any unlawful purpose.

We may, at our discretion, suspend accounts or remove content that violates these rules.

No warranties

The Site and any related communications are provided “as is” and “as available.” To the maximum extent permitted by law, we disclaim all warranties, express or implied, including warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement, and uninterrupted or error-free operation.

Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, in no event will Stay in Touch, its operators, contractors, or affiliates be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or any loss of profits, revenue, data, or goodwill, arising out of or related to your use of the Site or any related communications. Our total cumulative liability under these Terms shall not exceed one hundred U.S. dollars (US $100). Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or limitation of certain damages; in those jurisdictions, our liability is limited to the maximum extent permitted by law.

Indemnification

You agree to indemnify and hold Stay in Touch harmless from any claim or demand, including reasonable legal fees, arising out of (a) your submission to the Site, (b) your violation of these Terms, or (c) your violation of any law or the rights of a third party.

Termination

We may suspend or end your access to the Site or to any related communication, at any time and for any reason, without notice. You may stop using the Site and unsubscribe at any time.

Changes to these Terms

We may update these Terms as Stay in Touch evolves. The “Last updated” date below will reflect any change. Material changes will be communicated to the update list before they take effect.

Governing law and disputes

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to its conflict-of-laws principles. Any dispute arising out of or related to these Terms or the Site will be brought exclusively in the state or federal courts located in New Castle County, Delaware, and you and we consent to the personal jurisdiction of those courts.

Severability

If any provision of these Terms is found unenforceable, the remaining provisions will remain in effect.

Entire agreement

These Terms, together with our Privacy policy, are the entire agreement between you and Stay in Touch regarding the Site.
