Terms of Service
Last updated 7 September 2026. Effective from first public release.
These terms are the agreement between you and Clanelite LLC for using Zeroly. By using the app you accept them.
The two things that matter most
Zeroly does not move money. It is a record of who owes whom. Actual payment happens outside the app, between you and the other person.
Balances in Zeroly are not legally binding debts. They are a shared note of what people agreed. We do not verify them, guarantee them, or take a side if you disagree.
1. Who can use Zeroly
You must be at least 13 years old. If you are under the age of majority where you live, you may use Zeroly only with the involvement of a parent or guardian who agrees to these terms. You must not use Zeroly if we have previously banned you, or if the law where you are prohibits it.
2. What Zeroly is, and is not
Zeroly is a tool for recording shared expenses and working out who owes what. That is the whole of it.
Zeroly is not a payment service, a money transmitter, a bank, or a lender. It never holds, transfers, or processes your money. Where the app offers to open another service such as Venmo or PayPal, it is passing you to that service — your payment is between you and them, on their terms, and we are not a party to it.
Zeroly is not financial, tax, or legal advice. Balances are arithmetic on numbers you and your friends typed in. If those numbers are wrong, the balances are wrong.
Balances are informal records. Entering an expense does not create a legally enforceable debt, and deleting one does not extinguish an obligation that exists in the real world. Disagreements about who owes what are between you and the other people involved.
3. Your account
You sign in with Apple or Google. Keep that account secure — anyone who controls it controls your Zeroly account. Tell us promptly at support@zeroly.app if you think someone else has access.
Information you give us must be accurate. One account per person; do not impersonate anyone.
4. Your content
Expenses, descriptions, notes, receipts, group names and photos you add are yours. You keep ownership of them.
You grant us the permission we need to run the service: to store your content, and to display it to the members of groups you have chosen to share it with. That permission exists so the product can function and for no other purpose. We do not use your content to train models, and we do not publish it anywhere.
You are responsible for what you add, and you confirm you have the right to add it — including any receipt or photo containing someone else's information.
Anything you add to a group is visible to every member of that group. Treat a group as a room with those people in it.
5. Acceptable use
Do not use Zeroly to:
- Harass, threaten, defame or impersonate anyone, including through expense descriptions, notes, group names or profile details.
- Post content that is unlawful, hateful, sexually explicit, or depicts the exploitation of children.
- Record transactions for illegal activity.
- Break, probe or overload the service, or try to reach data that is not yours.
- Use automated means to scrape the service, or resell access to it.
We may remove content and suspend or close accounts that breach this section. Where user-posted content is visible to others, we provide ways to report, block and mute, and we act on reports.
6. Subscriptions and payment
Zeroly includes a paid subscription, Zeroly Plus.
- Free period. Every new account gets a free month of full use, beginning at first sign-in. It is tied to your account, so reinstalling does not start it again.
- After the free month. Zeroly keeps working. Reading your history, settling up, recording that someone paid you back, every split type, every currency, editing, deleting, exporting your data and deleting your account are never restricted. A free account has a limit on how many new expenses it can create in a rolling window; Plus removes that limit and adds additional features.
- Prices are shown in the app before you purchase, in your local currency, and may differ by region. We may change prices; a change never applies to a period you have already paid for, and Apple will ask you to agree before any increase takes effect on a renewal.
- Billing and auto-renewal. Purchases are made through your Apple ID and are handled by Apple, not by us. Subscriptions renew automatically unless you cancel at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Manage or cancel in Settings → your name → Subscriptions on your device.
- Refunds are handled by Apple under their policy, not by us. Request one at reportaproblem.apple.com. Write to us anyway if something went wrong — we would rather know.
- If your subscription lapses, nothing you created is deleted or hidden. You keep full read access to your entire history, and you can still export and delete it.
7. Availability and changes
We aim to keep Zeroly running but do not promise uninterrupted service. We may change, add or remove features. If we remove something you are paying for, or make a change that materially reduces what a Plus subscription provides, we will tell you in the app beforehand.
If we ever discontinue Zeroly, we will give reasonable notice and time to export your data.
8. Ending the agreement
You may stop at any time by deleting your account in the app — Account → Delete account. See what happens when you delete.
We may suspend or close an account that breaches these terms, or where required by law. Except where the breach is serious or we are legally prevented, we will tell you why and give you a chance to respond.
9. Disclaimer of warranties
Zeroly is provided "as is" and "as available", without warranties of any kind, whether express or implied, including implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement. We do not warrant that the service will be uninterrupted, error-free, or that balances it calculates are accurate, since they depend entirely on what people enter.
Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion of implied warranties, so parts of this section may not apply to you.
10. Limitation of liability
To the fullest extent permitted by law, Clanelite LLC will not be liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential or punitive damages, or for lost profits, lost data, or amounts you owe to or are owed by another person, arising out of your use of Zeroly.
Our total liability for any claim relating to Zeroly is limited to the greater of the amount you paid us in the twelve months before the claim, or twenty US dollars.
Nothing here excludes liability that cannot lawfully be excluded, including for death or personal injury caused by negligence, or for fraud. Some jurisdictions do not allow these limitations, so they may not apply to you.
11. Indemnity
You agree to indemnify Clanelite LLC against claims brought by a third party arising from content you added, your breach of these terms, or your misuse of the service.
12. Governing law and disputes
These terms are governed by the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, United States, without regard to its conflict-of-laws rules. Courts located in Pennsylvania have jurisdiction, and you and we consent to that venue.
If you are a consumer resident in the European Union, the United Kingdom, or another jurisdiction whose law gives you the right to bring proceedings locally and to the protection of mandatory consumer rules, this section does not take those rights away.
Before starting proceedings, please write to support@zeroly.app. Most things are resolvable that way.
13. General
If a provision is found unenforceable, the rest stays in force. Our not enforcing a provision is not a waiver of it. You may not transfer these terms; we may transfer them to a successor of the business. These terms and the Privacy Policy are the entire agreement between us about Zeroly.
If we change these terms materially, we will tell you in the app before the change takes effect. Continuing to use Zeroly after that means you accept the change.
Your use of Zeroly is also subject to Apple's App Store terms. Apple is not a party to this agreement and has no obligation to provide support for Zeroly.
