RunByItself · Version 2026-06-01 · Effective 2026-06-01
These Terms of Service (the “Terms”) are a binding agreement between RunByItself (“RunByItself,” “we,” “us,” or “Provider”) and the individual or entity that registers for or uses the Service (“you,” “Customer”). By clicking “I agree,” registering, installing, or otherwise accessing the Service, you accept these Terms and consent to transact electronically; your click constitutes a legally binding electronic signature. We record the date, time, account, and IP address of acceptance.
“Service” means the RunByItself time-tracking, activity-monitoring, reporting, screenshot, and related software, websites, APIs, installers, and agents. “Monitored Device” means any computer on which you deploy the Service. “End User” means any person who uses a Monitored Device. “Customer Data” means data collected, uploaded, or generated through your use of the Service.
You represent that you are at least 18 years old, have the legal capacity to enter these Terms, and—if acting for an organization—are authorized to bind that organization, which is equally responsible under these Terms.
The Service records computer-activity metadata (active application, window titles, idle/active state, input-event counts—not keystroke contents) and, where you enable them, periodic screenshots and AI-generated reports. The Service is provided on an “as available,” evolving basis and may include beta features. We may add, change, suspend, or remove features at any time. The Service does not record keystroke contents by default; you are responsible for any configuration you choose.
You are responsible for safeguarding your credentials and API keys and for all activity under your account. The Service is provided without any guarantee of security; you must notify us promptly of any suspected compromise. We are not liable for unauthorized access not caused by our willful misconduct.
Paid plans are billed per computer and/or per add-on through our payment processor (Stripe) on a recurring basis until cancelled. Quantities may scale with your usage. Fees are exclusive of taxes, which you are responsible for. Subscriptions auto-renew; you authorize recurring charges. Except where required by law, all fees are non-refundable, including partial periods. We may change prices prospectively upon notice. Chargebacks made in bad faith are a breach of these Terms.
The Service relies on third parties (including Stripe for payments, Anthropic for AI features, and hosting/infrastructure providers). Your use of those features may be subject to their terms, and we are not responsible for their acts, omissions, availability, or data handling.
As between the parties, you own Customer Data. You grant RunByItself a worldwide, royalty-free license to host, process, transmit, and display Customer Data solely to provide and improve the Service. You represent you have all rights and consents necessary to provide Customer Data to us. We may delete Customer Data following account termination or expiration of retention windows. We do not guarantee backups, retention, or recoverability; you are responsible for maintaining your own copies.
RunByItself and its licensors own all right, title, and interest in the Service and all related software and materials. No rights are granted except the limited, revocable, non-exclusive, non-transferable right to use the Service per these Terms. You will not reverse-engineer, resell, or create derivative works except as permitted by law.
You will not use the Service to: violate any law or third-party right; conduct unlawful or covert surveillance; deploy on devices without authorization or required consent; capture data you are not entitled to; interfere with or attack the Service; or circumvent usage or billing limits.
THE SERVICE IS PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE,” WITH ALL FAULTS AND WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, WHETHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED, OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, ACCURACY, AND ANY WARRANTY THAT THE SERVICE WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, SECURE, ERROR-FREE, OR THAT DATA (INCLUDING REPORTS, TIME TOTALS, OR PROJECT ATTRIBUTION) WILL BE ACCURATE OR COMPLETE. AI-GENERATED OUTPUT MAY BE INCORRECT AND MUST NOT BE SOLELY RELIED UPON.
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, RunByItself AND ITS OWNERS, OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES, AND SUPPLIERS WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR FOR LOST PROFITS, REVENUE, DATA, GOODWILL, OR BUSINESS INTERRUPTION, OR FOR ANY CLAIMS ARISING FROM YOUR MONITORING OF END USERS, REGULATORY ACTIONS, OR DISCLOSURE OF SENSITIVE DATA, EVEN IF ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY. RunByItself’S TOTAL AGGREGATE LIABILITY FOR ALL CLAIMS WILL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF (A) THE FEES YOU PAID TO RunByItself IN THE THREE (3) MONTHS BEFORE THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO LIABILITY, OR (B) USD $100. SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW CERTAIN LIMITATIONS, SO SOME MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.
You will defend, indemnify, and hold harmless RunByItself and its owners, officers, employees, and agents from and against any claims, demands, damages, losses, liabilities, fines, penalties, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) arising out of or related to: (a) your use or deployment of the Service; (b) your monitoring of End Users; (c) Customer Data; (d) your violation of any law or third-party right (including privacy, wiretap, employment, IP, or data-protection rights); (e) any claim by an End User or third party relating to monitoring, screenshots, or data collection; and (f) your breach of these Terms.
We may suspend or terminate the Service or your account at any time, with or without cause or notice, including for non-payment, suspected unlawful use, or risk to the Service or others. You may stop using the Service at any time. Upon termination, your right to use the Service ends and we may delete Customer Data.
We may modify these Terms by posting an updated version and updating the version identifier. Continued use—or re-acceptance when prompted—constitutes acceptance. If you do not agree, stop using the Service.
Each party will protect the other’s non-public information disclosed in connection with the Service and use it only as needed to perform under these Terms.
These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Delaware, United States, without regard to conflict-of-laws rules. The parties will attempt to resolve disputes informally; any unresolved dispute will be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of the state and federal courts located in Delaware, United States. To the extent permitted by law, each party waives any right to a jury trial and to participate in a class, collective, or representative action; claims must be brought individually.
You will comply with applicable export-control, sanctions, and anti-bribery laws, and represent you are not located in, or a national of, an embargoed jurisdiction or on a restricted-party list.
RunByItself is not liable for any delay or failure due to causes beyond its reasonable control, including outages, attacks, third-party failures, or acts of God.
You may not assign these Terms without our consent. We may assign them freely, including in connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets.
If any provision is held unenforceable, the rest remains in effect and the unenforceable provision is modified to the minimum extent necessary. Failure to enforce is not a waiver. These Terms (plus any separately executed agreements) are the entire agreement between the parties and supersede prior understandings. Headings are for convenience only.
Notices to RunByItself may be sent to support@runbyitself.com. We may give notice via the Service or the email associated with your account.
Sections concerning Customer Responsibilities, Sensitive Data, Fees, IP, Disclaimers, Limitation of Liability, Indemnification, Governing Law, and any provision that by its nature should survive, survive termination.
