Terms of Use
These terms
These terms are an agreement between you and Haute Digital Studio LLC ("we", "us"), the publisher of It's Time App ("It's Time", "the app"). By downloading or using the app you agree to them. They add to Apple's standard Licensed Application End User License Agreement, which also applies. If the two conflict, these terms apply to the extent the law allows.
You must be 18 or older to use the app.
What the app does
It's Time helps you prepare one announcement before your baby arrives and send it to the people you choose, with one press. The message is sent from your own iPhone by text message and WhatsApp. It can include your hospital's details and directions, and the name and number of a point of contact. The app can also help you turn on Do Not Disturb after sending, using a Shortcut you set up once.
What it is not
It's Time is not a medical, emergency or safety service. It does not contact hospitals, doctors, midwives or emergency services. In an emergency, call your local emergency number (911 in the US, 999 or 112 in the UK and Ireland, 10111 or 112 in South Africa, 000 in Australia, 111 in New Zealand, 911 in Canada).
Message delivery depends on things we don't control, including your phone, battery, signal, carrier, Apple Messages and WhatsApp. We can't promise that every message will be delivered, or delivered on time. Do Not Disturb may silence calls and alerts, including ones you want. Check your Focus settings before the big day.
Price and payment
The app is free to download and set up. Sending your announcement needs a one-time in-app purchase that unlocks the app for life. There is no subscription. Apple processes the payment and shows the price in your local currency before you buy. Prices may differ by country and may change. Refunds are handled by Apple under Apple's policies (reportaproblem.apple.com). You can restore your purchase on a new iPhone with the same Apple Account.
Your responsibilities
- Only add people who expect or would welcome hearing from you, and only share a point of contact's number with their permission.
- Don't use the app to send spam, harassment or anything unlawful.
- You are responsible for your message and for any charges from your carrier or WhatsApp.
- Check your setup before your due date, including a test with yourself or a willing friend.
Your license
We give you a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable license to use the app on Apple devices you own or control, as allowed by Apple's Usage Rules. You may not copy, modify, resell, reverse engineer or use the app to build a competing product, except where the law allows it.
Our content
The app, the It's Time name, logo and design belong to Haute Digital Studio LLC. Your messages and your information belong to you. Because they stay on your iPhone, we never receive them.
Disclaimers
We work hard to make It's Time dependable. To the extent the law allows, the app is provided "as is" and "as available", without warranties of any kind, express or implied, including fitness for a particular purpose and uninterrupted or error-free operation.
Liability
To the extent the law allows, we are not liable for indirect, incidental, special or consequential losses, or for messages that are delayed, not delivered or sent to the wrong person because of information you entered. Our total liability to you is limited to the amount you paid for the app.
Your consumer rights
Nothing in these terms limits rights you have under consumer law that can't be excluded, including the UK Consumer Rights Act 2015, EU and Irish consumer law, South Africa's Consumer Protection Act, the Australian Consumer Law, New Zealand's Consumer Guarantees Act, Canadian provincial consumer law and India's Consumer Protection Act, 2019. Where those laws apply, our liability is limited only as far as they allow.
Apple
These terms are between you and us, not Apple. Apple is not responsible for the app, its maintenance or support, or any claims about it. Apple and its subsidiaries are third-party beneficiaries of these terms and may enforce them against you.
Ending use
You can stop using the app at any time by deleting it. We may end your license if you seriously break these terms. Sections that by their nature should continue, such as disclaimers and liability, continue afterwards.
Governing law
These terms are governed by the laws of the state where Haute Digital Studio LLC is registered, USA. If you live in the UK, the EU, South Africa, India, Canada, Australia or New Zealand, you also keep the protection of the mandatory laws of your country and may bring a claim in your local courts.
Changes
We may update these terms. We will change the date at the top and, for important changes, tell you in the app before they take effect.
