Terms of Service

What HardBeet is

HardBeet is a daily check-in aid. It helps a person share whether they checked in today with loved ones they approve.

HardBeet is not an emergency response service, medical monitoring service, location tracker, substitute for calling emergency services or a caregiver, or proof that someone is safe. If you believe someone may need urgent help, contact local emergency services or another appropriate real-world support channel.

Consent and sharing

HardBeet is built around consent. Users should create sharing agreements only with people they know and trust. Approved loved ones may see daily check-in status, most recent check-in time, pause state, and suggested next steps. Email addresses, phone numbers, and sign-in providers are used only for account access and are not shown through connections. Approved loved ones cannot see supporting signals, live location, messages, apps, photos, browser history, or health details through HardBeet.

I share with them and They share with me are separate permissions. Either person may stop one direction without automatically changing the other.

Reminders and alerts

HardBeet sends push notifications for reminders and approved loved-one alerts. When sharing is active and no manual check-in was recorded, loved-one notifications begin 60 minutes after the person's chosen daily time. Notifications are best effort and may be delayed, blocked, or not delivered because of network conditions, device settings, operating-system behavior, service outages, or provider issues.

Followers may choose silent overnight delivery or hold overnight alerts until morning. Those settings may intentionally silence or delay an alert and do not change check-in status.

Do not rely on HardBeet notifications for emergencies, medical decisions, or time-sensitive safety decisions.

Supporting signals

Only tapping I'm here today creates a daily check-in. HardBeet may record app-open events, coarse motion-triggered attempts, battery-state attempts, and background-task attempts as private, best-effort diagnostics. They do not create a check-in, change loved-one status, or appear to approved loved ones. They do not prove that a person is safe, awake, responsive, or physically near their phone.

HardBeet does not guarantee continuous background execution on iOS or Android.

When a network connection is unavailable, HardBeet may save a pending check-in on the user's phone and retry delivery. Approved loved ones cannot see it until the backend confirms it.

User responsibilities

• Use HardBeet only for lawful, respectful daily check-in agreements.
• Get consent before asking someone to share check-in status.
• Avoid using HardBeet to stalk, harass, coerce, or surveil another person.
• Keep your account access secure.
• Understand that missed check-ins can have many ordinary causes.

Account access and deletion

HardBeet may use email OTP, Apple, Google, or phone OTP for sign-in. Available methods can vary by country and provider readiness. Users can start account deletion in the app from Settings > Privacy and account > Delete account, or use the public deletion request page.

Availability and liability

HardBeet is provided on a best-effort basis. The service may change, pause, or stop without notice. To the maximum extent permitted by law, HardBeet is not responsible for missed notifications, delayed alerts, unavailable service, inaccurate check-in status, user misuse, or decisions made based on the app.
