Terms of Service
Last updated October 20, 2026.
Acceptance
By creating an account or using Tend, you agree to these terms. If you do not agree, do not use the service.
The service
Tend is a personal journaling tool available at tendjournal.app. We provide it as-is and may update, change, or discontinue features at any time. We will make reasonable efforts to notify users of material changes.
Tend is free to use. Some features are part of Tend+, an optional paid subscription described below.
Your account
- You must be at least 13 years old to use Tend.
- You are responsible for keeping your login credentials secure.
- One person per account. Do not share accounts.
- Notify us immediately if you suspect unauthorized access.
Subscriptions (Tend+)
Tend+ unlocks ongoing AI reflections, reflections on any range of days, the Skills radar, photos, and your full history beyond the last 30 days. You can buy it in the Apple App Store, on Google Play, or on our website. The price and billing period are shown before you confirm the purchase.
- Auto-renewal. Tend+ renews automatically at the end of each billing period, and your account is charged for the next period within 24 hours before the current one ends, unless you cancel at least 24 hours before then.
- Free trial. If your purchase starts with a free trial, it converts to a paid subscription when the trial ends unless you cancel at least 24 hours before the trial ends.
- Managing and cancelling. You can manage or cancel at any time in your App Store or Google Play account settings (for purchases made there). Cancelling stops the next renewal; Tend+ stays active until the end of the period you already paid for. Deleting your Tend account does not cancel a store subscription.
- Price changes. If the price of Tend+ changes, we will tell you in advance, and the App Store or Google Play may ask you to agree to the new price. If you don’t want to continue, you can cancel before it takes effect.
- Refunds. Payments are taken by Apple or Google and refunds are handled under their policies; request one through the store where you bought Tend+. For web purchases, contact us.
- If Tend+ ends. Your account and everything you’ve written stay yours, and nothing is deleted. Tend+ features lock: new AI reflections and the Skills radar pause, you can’t add new photos, and entries older than 30 days are hidden until you renew. Reflections and photos you already have stay visible, and you can keep checking in every day for free.

You own everything you write in Tend. We claim no rights to your journal entries, notes, or any other content you create. You grant us a limited license to store and display your content solely to operate the service for you.

Privacy
Our Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and protect your data. By using Tend you agree to that policy.
Disclaimers
Tend is provided “as is” without warranties of any kind, express or implied. We do not warrant that the service will be uninterrupted, error-free, or free of harmful components. Tend is not a substitute for professional mental health support.
Limitation of liability
To the maximum extent permitted by law, Tend and its operators are not liable for any indirect, incidental, or consequential damages arising from your use of the service.
Termination
You may stop using Tend and request account deletion at any time. We may suspend or terminate accounts that violate these terms. Upon termination, your right to use the service ends and we will delete your data per our Privacy Policy.
Governing law
These terms are governed by the laws of the State of California, United States, without regard to conflict of law principles.
