Terms of Service

Last updated: June 9, 2026 · Effective date: June 9, 2026

Operator: Silica Sites · App: DayLeaf (com.silicasites.dayleaf)

Please read these Terms carefully. They govern your use of the DayLeaf mobile and desktop application. By using DayLeaf you agree to these Terms and our Privacy Policy.

01

Acceptance

By downloading, installing, accessing, or using DayLeaf, you agree to these Terms and our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, do not use the App.

If you use the App on behalf of an organization, you represent that you have authority to bind that organization.

We may modify these Terms. Material changes will be reflected in the “Last updated” date and, when appropriate, in-app notice. Your continued use after changes become effective constitutes acceptance where permitted by law.

02

Eligibility

You must be at least 13 years old (or the minimum age required in your country to consent to data processing and paid services) to use DayLeaf. If you are under the age of majority in your jurisdiction, you must have a parent or guardian's permission.

03

Description of the Service

DayLeaf is a local-first personal journaling application. Core features include creating and editing journal entries, voice notes, drawings, stickers, mood tracking, in-app writing statistics, reminders, optional PIN lock, and data export.

DayLeaf is not a medical, mental health, or crisis service. Content in the App is for personal reflection only and is not a substitute for professional advice, diagnosis, or treatment. If you are in crisis, contact emergency services or a qualified professional in your area.

04

License

Subject to these Terms, we grant you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to install and use DayLeaf for personal, non-commercial purposes on devices you own or control.

You may not:

  • Copy, modify, or create derivative works of the App (except as allowed by law)
  • Reverse engineer, decompile, or disassemble the App (except as allowed by law)
  • Remove proprietary notices
  • Rent, lease, sell, sublicense, or redistribute the App
  • Use the App for unlawful purposes or to violate others' rights
  • Interfere with the App's operation or attempt unauthorized access to our systems
  • Use automated means to scrape or access the App except as allowed by law

All rights not expressly granted are reserved by Silica Sites and its licensors.

05

No Account; Device Security

DayLeaf does not require a user account. Your journal is stored on your device unless you use optional Premium LAN sync.

  • PIN lock (optional): You are responsible for remembering your PIN. We cannot recover a forgotten PIN.
  • Premium subscriptions are tied to your Google Play account on Android, not a separate DayLeaf login.
  • Backups: We do not operate a cloud journal backup. Export your data regularly if you need a copy. Uninstalling the App may delete local data.

You are responsible for securing your devices and any devices you pair for LAN sync.

06

User Content

You retain ownership of content you create (“User Content”), including text, audio, images, and drawings.

You grant us a limited license to store, display, and process User Content on your device and to transmit it only as you direct (e.g., Premium LAN sync between devices you pair, or export you initiate).

You represent that:

  • You have the rights to your User Content
  • Your User Content does not violate law or third-party rights
  • Your User Content does not contain malware or harmful code

We do not routinely monitor User Content. We may take action if we become aware of violations of these Terms or applicable law.

07

Premium Subscriptions and Payments

7.1 Plans

DayLeaf offers free features and optional DayLeaf Premium via auto-renewing subscriptions on Google Play:

PlanReference price (USD)Billing
Monthly$2.99 / monthAuto-renewing
Annual$24.99 / yearAuto-renewing

Prices may vary by region and currency. Google Play displays the final price and billing period before you confirm purchase.

7.2 Premium features (current)

Premium may include, among other features:

  • Multiple journals
  • Custom color palettes and custom stickers
  • Extended and custom writing prompts
  • Advanced in-app analytics filters
  • LAN sync between devices you pair on your local network (not a cloud backup service)

Feature availability may change; we will not remove core paid functionality without reasonable notice where practicable.

7.3 Billing and renewal

  • Payment is processed by Google Play, not directly by Silica Sites.
  • Subscriptions automatically renew unless you cancel through Google Play → Subscriptions before the renewal date.
  • Free trials or introductory pricing, if offered, are shown in the Google Play purchase flow and governed by Google's terms.

7.4 Refunds and cancellation

Refunds and cancellations follow Google Play's policies. To stop future charges, cancel in Google Play before the next billing period. Premium access typically continues until the end of the current paid period unless Google places the subscription on hold.

7.5 Restore purchases

Use Restore Purchases in the App or Google Play account tools to restore Premium on a new device, subject to verification of an active subscription.

08

LAN Sync (Premium)

  • Premium LAN sync lets you transfer journal data between devices you explicitly pair on the same local network.
  • Sync uses local network communication (HTTP on your LAN), not DayLeaf cloud storage.
  • You control which devices are trusted. Do not pair devices you do not control.
  • You are responsible for network security (Wi‑Fi passwords, guest networks, shared networks).
  • We are not liable for data exposure caused by insecure networks, mis-pairing, or third-party access to your devices.
09

Prohibited Conduct

You agree not to:

  • Violate applicable laws or regulations
  • Store or transmit illegal, infringing, harassing, or harmful content
  • Attempt to bypass security, licensing, or Premium access controls
  • Impersonate others or misrepresent affiliation with Silica Sites
  • Use the App to harm minors or violate others' privacy
  • Disrupt other users or our infrastructure (where applicable)

Violation may result in loss of Premium access (where permitted by Google Play) or legal action.

10

Intellectual Property

DayLeaf, its name, logos, design, and underlying software are owned by Silica Sites or licensors and protected by intellectual property laws.

Trademarks: “DayLeaf” and related branding may not be used without our written permission in a way that suggests endorsement.

Copyright complaints: Send notices to info@silicasites.com with identification of the work, the material at issue, your contact information, a good-faith statement, and a statement of accuracy under penalty of perjury.

11

Disclaimers

THE APP AND SERVICE ARE PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE.” TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, WE DISCLAIM ALL WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT.

We do not warrant that:

  • The App will be uninterrupted, error-free, or secure
  • Data will never be lost (including device failure or uninstall)
  • The App will meet your specific needs
  • LAN sync or subscription verification will always be available

Some jurisdictions do not allow certain disclaimers; in those cases, disclaimers apply to the maximum extent permitted.

12

Limitation of Liability

TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, SILICA SITES AND ITS AFFILIATES, OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES, AND AGENTS WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR ANY LOSS OF PROFITS, DATA, GOODWILL, OR BUSINESS INTERRUPTION, ARISING FROM YOUR USE OF THE APP.

OUR TOTAL LIABILITY FOR ANY CLAIM ARISING FROM THESE TERMS OR THE APP WILL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF (A) THE AMOUNT YOU PAID US FOR PREMIUM IN THE TWELVE (12) MONTHS BEFORE THE CLAIM, OR (B) USD $50.

Some jurisdictions do not allow limitation of liability for certain damages; in those cases, our liability is limited to the maximum permitted by law.

13

Indemnification

You agree to indemnify and hold harmless Silica Sites from claims, damages, losses, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising from your use of the App, your User Content, your violation of these Terms, or your violation of any third-party rights.

14

Termination

You may stop using DayLeaf at any time by uninstalling the App. Export your journal first if you want a copy.

We may suspend or discontinue the App or features with reasonable notice where practicable. Sections that by nature should survive (disclaimers, limitations, indemnity, governing law) survive termination.

15

Governing Law and Disputes

These Terms are governed by the laws of the United States and the state where Silica Sites maintains its principal place of business, without regard to conflict-of-law rules.

Informal resolution: Contact info@silicasites.com first to resolve disputes informally.

Arbitration (where permitted): If informal resolution fails, disputes will be resolved by binding individual arbitration, except that either party may bring claims in small claims court or seek injunctive relief for intellectual property misuse. You waive class actions and class arbitrations to the extent allowed by law.

If arbitration is not enforceable in your jurisdiction, disputes will be brought in the courts located where Silica Sites maintains its principal place of business, and you consent to personal jurisdiction there.

16

General Provisions

  • Entire agreement: These Terms and the Privacy Policy are the entire agreement regarding DayLeaf.
  • Severability: If any provision is unenforceable, the remainder stays in effect.
  • No waiver: Failure to enforce a provision is not a waiver.
  • Assignment: You may not assign these Terms without our consent. We may assign them in connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets.
  • Force majeure: We are not liable for delays or failures due to events beyond our reasonable control.
  • Notices to you: We may provide notices through the App or by posting updated Terms.
