Terms & Conditions
These Terms & Conditions (“Terms”) govern your use of houseOS and the website at house-os.app. By using the app or site, you agree to these Terms.
The service
houseOS helps housemates share a digital “house”: presence, todos, rotas, bills, and related home-screen features. Features may change as we improve the product.
Your account
houseOS uses your iCloud account for identity and storage, and you are responsible for activity under your account. Provide accurate information and keep your device and Apple Account secure.
Houses & content
You retain rights to content you create. By adding content to a house, you grant other members of that house permission to view and use it as the product intends. Do not upload unlawful, harmful, or infringing material.
Acceptable use
You agree not to:
- Misuse the service or attempt to disrupt CloudKit sharing
- Harass other members or misuse presence or personal data
- Reverse engineer the app except where allowed by law
- Use houseOS for anything illegal
Availability
houseOS depends on Apple services (including iCloud and WeatherKit). We do not guarantee uninterrupted access and are not responsible for outages outside our control.
Weather data
Weather information in houseOS is provided by Apple Weather (WeatherKit). Weather data, including real-time and forecast information, is provided for general informational purposes only. It may not be accurate, complete, or current, and it may differ from actual conditions. You should not rely on weather information in houseOS for decisions where inaccurate weather data could lead to harm, loss, or damage — consult official warnings and forecasts from your national weather service instead. Neither we nor Apple is liable for any loss arising from reliance on weather data shown in the app.
Disclaimer
The app and site are provided “as is” without warranties of any kind, to the fullest extent permitted by law. houseOS is not a substitute for formal tenancy, legal, or financial advice.

To the fullest extent permitted by law, we are not liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or any loss of data, profits, or goodwill arising from your use of houseOS.
Termination
You may stop using houseOS and leave a house at any time. We may suspend or terminate access if you violate these Terms.
Changes
We may update these Terms. The “Last updated” date will change when we do. Continued use after an update constitutes acceptance.
