Terms
Effective 30 September 2026
These terms are an agreement between you and Benjamin Gadbaw, who makes Vicejar. By using the app you agree to them.
What Vicejar is
Vicejar is a record-keeping tool for a game between people who know each other. A group agrees on habits and a price for each, members record catches, and the app keeps a tab for each person.
Money is between you and your group
- Vicejar does not hold, send, receive or guarantee money. It is not a bank, a payment service or a party to any payment.
- A tab in Vicejar is a tally your group agreed to keep. Whether and how it is paid is up to you and the people in your jar.
- Payments happen in other companies' apps under their terms. Vicejar is not responsible for those services, for a payment sent to the wrong person, or for a payment a keeper does not confirm.
- Vicejar is not for gambling, betting, lotteries or raffles. Do not use it for them.
Your account
You must be at least 13 to use Vicejar, and old enough under the rules of any payment app you use with it. Your account key is stored in your iCloud Keychain. You are responsible for what is done from your phone.
Fair use
- Use real first names for real people who know they are in the jar. Do not add someone to harass, shame or mislead them.
- Do not put hateful, threatening or unlawful content in jar names, habits or notes.
- Do not attack, overload or scrape the service.
Accounts and jars that break these rules may be removed.
Paying for a jar
Starting a jar is a one-time purchase sold through Apple. It lets you start one jar, which stays yours with no further charge and no limit on members or habits. Joining a jar is free, and a person who joins a jar from an invite may start one jar of their own without charge. Payment and refunds are handled by Apple under Apple's terms. A purchased jar that has not been started yet stays on your account. Deleting a jar does not refund its purchase.
The service
Vicejar is provided as is, without warranties. It may change, and it may be unavailable at times. To the extent the law allows, Benjamin Gadbaw is not liable for indirect or consequential losses, or for disputes between members of a jar, and total liability is limited to what you paid for Vicejar in the 12 months before the claim.
Ending
You can stop at any time by deleting your account in Settings. These terms are governed by the laws of California.
