Terms of Service
Last updated: 1 July 2026
These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your use of TurnItOff websites, apps, and related services ("Service"). By creating an account or using the Service, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use the Service.
Who the Service is for
TurnItOff is intended for parents or legal guardians who want to manage screen limits on a child's Android device. The parent creates and controls the account. The child device is paired and managed by the parent — children do not need their own login.
You must be at least 18 years old (or the age of majority where you live) to create a parent account.
Your responsibilities
- You are responsible for the child devices you pair and for how you use pause, schedule, and lock features.
- You must have the legal authority to manage the device you pair (e.g. you are the parent or guardian of the child who uses it).
- You must keep your account credentials and parent PIN secure.
- You must comply with applicable laws when monitoring or limiting a child's device use.
What the Service does
TurnItOff lets parents pause a child's screen, set scheduled limits, and view summary usage information. Features depend on the child device having the TurnItOff app installed, required Android permissions granted, and a working network connection. We do not guarantee uninterrupted operation — locks may be delayed or fail if the device is offline, permissions are revoked, or the OS restricts background services.
Acceptable use
You agree not to:
- Use the Service for any unlawful purpose or to harass, abuse, or harm others.
- Attempt to bypass, reverse engineer, or interfere with lock or security features.
- Pair devices you are not authorised to manage.
- Resell or misuse the Service in a way that violates these Terms.
Account & data
Our Privacy Policy explains what data we collect and how we use it. You may delete your parent account in the app; that removes associated devices and server-side data as described in the Privacy Policy.
Disclaimer
The Service is provided "as is" without warranties of any kind. TurnItOff is a parental tool, not emergency services, childcare, or a substitute for supervision. Emergency call access on the child device is provided where supported by the OS, but we do not guarantee emergency dialling will work in all situations.
Limitation of liability
To the fullest extent permitted by law, we are not liable for indirect, incidental, or consequential damages arising from your use of the Service, including loss of data, device malfunction, or a child accessing content while the device is unlocked. Our total liability for any claim related to the Service is limited to the amount you paid us in the twelve months before the claim (or zero if the Service is free).
Changes & termination
We may update these Terms or the Service from time to time. We will update the "Last updated" date on this page. Continued use after changes means you accept the revised Terms. We may suspend or terminate access if you violate these Terms or if we discontinue the Service.
