Terms of Service

These Terms are a binding legal agreement between you and StackMap. They are drafted to protect StackMap to the fullest extent Australian law allows. Please read them in full before using the Service.

1. Acceptance and Formation of Agreement

By creating an account, clicking "I agree," or accessing or using StackMap (the "Service") in any way, you enter into a binding agreement with StackMap consisting of these Terms of Service ("Terms"), our Privacy Policy, and our Billing & Refund Policy, each incorporated by reference (together, the "Agreement"). If you are accessing the Service on behalf of a company or other entity, you represent that you have authority to bind that entity, and "you" refers to both you individually and that entity, jointly and severally. If you do not agree to the Agreement in full, you must not access or use the Service in any way.

2. Eligibility

You must be at least 16 years old, or the minimum age of digital consent in your jurisdiction if higher, and legally capable of entering binding contracts, to use the Service. You represent and warrant that you meet these requirements, that all information you provide is accurate, and that you are not prohibited from using the Service under Australian law or the law of your jurisdiction. We may request verification of eligibility at any time and may suspend accounts pending verification.

3. What StackMap Is (and Is Not)

StackMap is a software tool that helps users save, organise, import, export, launch, and access links, bookmarks, stacks, categories, and related workspace data ("Workspace Data"). StackMap is an organisational and launcher layer only. It is not a security product, identity-protection product, financial product, or guarantee of any kind regarding the third-party destinations you choose to save or visit. StackMap does not host, create, control, verify, endorse, or take editorial responsibility for any third-party website, application, or content accessible through a link you save.

4. Licence to Use the Service

Subject to your compliance with this Agreement, we grant you a limited, personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable licence to access and use the Service for its intended purpose. This licence does not include any right to: resell, sublicense, or redistribute the Service; use the Service to build a competing product; copy, modify, or create derivative works of the Service; remove or obscure any proprietary notices; or use any automated system to access the Service outside an API we officially publish. Any use outside this licence immediately terminates it.

5. Your Account and Responsibilities

You are solely responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account credentials and for all activity occurring under your account, whether or not authorised by you, except to the extent caused solely by our own gross negligence or wilful misconduct. You must provide accurate, current information and keep it updated. You must notify us immediately at contact@stackmap.net of any suspected unauthorised access. We are not responsible for losses arising from your failure to safeguard your own credentials, devices, or recovery methods.

6. Account Security Features — No Guarantee

StackMap offers optional security features including PIN lock and two-factor authentication (TOTP). These are reasonable-effort tools, not guarantees. They do not warrant, and must not be relied upon as ensuring, that your account or Workspace Data cannot be accessed, lost, altered, or compromised by any means, including third-party attack, technical failure, or your own action or inaction. You are solely responsible for enabling, configuring, and maintaining any security feature you choose to use, including safeguarding any PIN, authenticator device, or backup/recovery code. See §17A for Link Shield-specific disclaimers.

7. Plans, Payments, and Auto-Renewal

StackMap offers a free plan and one or more paid "Pro" plans, described on our Pricing page, incorporated into this Agreement. Payments are processed by Stripe, Inc.; we do not receive or store your full card details, and your relationship with Stripe is governed by Stripe's own terms. All fees are exclusive of taxes unless stated otherwise; you are responsible for any taxes applicable to your subscription. Paid subscriptions renew automatically at the then-current price at the end of each billing period unless cancelled before renewal. You may cancel at any time through the billing portal; cancellation takes effect at the end of the current billing period. We may change pricing for future terms with reasonable notice before it applies to your account. Refunds are governed by our Billing & Refund Policy and applicable law, including §16.

8. Acceptable Use

You must not use the Service to store, organise, distribute, promote, transmit, or link to content or conduct that is unlawful, infringing, defamatory, fraudulent, deceptive, harassing, or that facilitates harm to any person, including phishing, malware distribution, or any attempt to circumvent or exploit Link Shield or any other security feature. Without limitation, you must not:

We may investigate suspected violations and take any action we deem appropriate, including content removal, feature restriction, suspension, or termination under §13, without liability to you, subject to §16.

9. Content Removal and Reporting

We may remove, disable access to, or refuse to store any Workspace Data that we reasonably believe violates this Agreement, applicable law, or a third party's rights, including in response to a valid legal notice (such as a copyright infringement notice). If you believe content has been wrongly removed, contact contact@stackmap.net. We are not obligated to monitor Workspace Data proactively and disclaim liability for any failure to detect or act on non-compliant content, except as required by law.

10. Changes to the Service

We may add, modify, restrict, or discontinue any feature, plan tier, or aspect of the Service at any time, in our discretion, including features you currently rely on. Where a change materially reduces functionality for existing paid subscribers, we will make reasonable efforts to provide advance notice, but our ability to modify or discontinue the Service is not otherwise conditioned on your consent, subject to §16.

11. Changes to These Terms

We may revise this Agreement at any time. Material changes will be notified by email or in-app notice at least 14 days before taking effect wherever practical. Continued use of the Service after the effective date constitutes your acceptance of the revised Agreement. If you do not agree, your sole remedy is to stop using the Service and cancel any subscription before the change takes effect.

12. Suspension and Termination

We may suspend or terminate your access to the Service, in whole or in part, immediately and without prior notice where reasonably necessary to protect the Service, other users, or third parties (including suspected fraud, security threats, or breach of §8), and otherwise with notice where reasonably practical, if: (a) you materially breach this Agreement; (b) required by law or a competent authority; or (c) we reasonably believe termination is necessary to prevent harm or legal exposure. You may stop using the Service and delete your account at any time. On termination, your right to access the Service ends immediately; provisions which by their nature should survive — including §13.4, 14, 15, 17, 17A, 19, and 21–26 — survive termination indefinitely. Except where termination is due to our uncured material breach, no refund is owed beyond what is required under §16 or our Billing & Refund Policy.

13. Disclaimers

13.1 To the maximum extent permitted by law, the Service, including all features, tools, integrations, and security functions such as Link Shield, is provided strictly "AS IS" and "AS AVAILABLE," without any warranty of any kind, whether express, implied, or statutory, including any implied warranty of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, title, accuracy, non-infringement, or that the Service will be uninterrupted, timely, secure, or error-free.

13.2 We do not warrant, and expressly disclaim, any representation that the Service will meet your requirements, that any defect will be corrected, or that the Service or any server making it available is free of harmful components.

13.3 No advice or information, oral or written, obtained from StackMap or through the Service creates any warranty not expressly stated in this Agreement.

13.4 You use the Service, and every third-party link, tool, or destination accessed through it, entirely at your own risk. Nothing in this section limits your rights under §16.

14. Limitation of Liability

14.1 No liability for third-party conduct. To the maximum extent permitted by law, StackMap is not liable, under any theory of liability including negligence, for any loss, damage, cost, or expense of any kind arising from or connected with: the conduct of any third party, including scams, fraud, phishing, malware, identity theft, or financial loss; the accuracy, safety, legality, or availability of any third-party website, app, or content accessed via a saved or launched link; or any failure of Link Shield or any other feature to detect, flag, or block a harmful, deceptive, or fraudulent link, as further set out in §17A.

14.2 Exclusion of indirect and consequential loss. To the maximum extent permitted by law, in no event will StackMap, its officers, directors, employees, contractors, or agents be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary, or punitive damages, or for any loss of profits, revenue, data, goodwill, business opportunity, or anticipated savings, however arising and even if we were advised of, or should reasonably have known of, the possibility of such damages, and even if any limited remedy fails its essential purpose.

14.3 Hard cap on aggregate liability. To the maximum extent permitted by law, and subject to §14.4, StackMap's total aggregate liability to you for any and all claims arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the Service, under any theory of liability (contract, tort, statute, or otherwise), is limited to the lesser of (a) the total fees you paid us in the 12 months immediately preceding the event giving rise to the claim, or (b) AUD $100. This is a single aggregate cap across all claims, not a per-claim or per-incident cap.

14.4 Statutory rights preserved. Nothing in this Agreement excludes, restricts, or modifies any right, guarantee, or remedy that cannot lawfully be excluded, restricted, or modified, including your rights under the Australian Consumer Law (§16). To the extent a consumer guarantee under the ACL applies and cannot be excluded but liability for its breach can lawfully be limited, our liability is limited, at our election, to resupplying the Service or paying the cost of resupply.

15. Indemnification

To the maximum extent permitted by law, you agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless StackMap and its officers, directors, employees, contractors, and agents from and against any and all claims, demands, losses, damages, liabilities, judgments, costs, and expenses (including reasonable legal fees) arising out of or in connection with: (a) your breach of this Agreement; (b) your violation of any law, regulation, or third-party right, including intellectual property, privacy, or consumer protection rights; (c) Workspace Data or links you save, import, generate, or share through the Service, including any harm caused to you or any third party; (d) your interaction with, reliance on, or any transaction conducted via any third-party website, app, or service accessed through the Service, including any scam, fraud, or financial loss; or (e) your negligent, reckless, or wrongful conduct in connection with the Service. This obligation survives termination of your account. We reserve the right, at your expense, to assume exclusive defence of any matter otherwise subject to indemnification by you, in which case you agree to cooperate with our defence.

16. Australian Consumer Law

Our services come with guarantees that cannot be excluded under the Australian Consumer Law (ACL). For major failures you are entitled to a refund or replacement, and for other failures you are entitled to have the service re-performed or the fault remedied within a reasonable time. Nothing in this Agreement excludes, restricts, or modifies, or purports to exclude, restrict, or modify, any right or remedy conferred on you by the ACL or any other law that cannot lawfully be excluded, restricted, or modified. To the extent any clause of this Agreement is inconsistent with the ACL, the ACL prevails and that clause is read down accordingly, or if it cannot be read down, severed under §22.

17. Intellectual Property

The Service, including its software, source code, design, user interface, branding, trademarks, and underlying technology, is owned by StackMap or its licensors and protected by Australian and international intellectual property laws. Except for the limited licence granted in §4, no right, title, or interest in the Service is transferred to you. You retain ownership of Workspace Data you add to the Service. You grant us a limited, worldwide, royalty-free, non-exclusive licence to host, store, process, sync, back up, and display your Workspace Data solely to operate and improve the Service for you, ending when you delete the relevant data or your account (subject to reasonable backup retention under our Privacy Policy). Any feedback, suggestions, or ideas you provide about the Service may be used by us without restriction or compensation to you.

17A.1 What it is. Link Shield is an automated, best-effort filtering feature that checks link structure against known-risky patterns — including dangerous URL schemes, disguised file types, common phishing indicators, and other heuristics — before a link is saved or opened. It is an assistive tool, not a security certification, and is not a substitute for your own judgment or diligence.

17A.2 No guarantee, express or implied. Link Shield, and any related label such as "blocked," "flagged," "caution," or "safe," does not mean, warrant, certify, or represent that a link, website, or destination is safe, legitimate, malware-free, or non-fraudulent. Malicious actors constantly evolve their methods, and no automated system, including Link Shield, can detect every dangerous, deceptive, or fraudulent link that exists now or in future. A link that is not flagged must never be assumed safe on that basis alone. We make no representation, express or implied, that Link Shield will identify, block, or warn of any particular threat, known or unknown.

17A.3 Assumption of risk. You acknowledge and agree that: (a) you access, save, organise, and launch all links through the Service entirely at your own risk; (b) you are solely responsible for exercising independent judgment before entering credentials, making payments, downloading files, or disclosing personal or financial information on any site reached via the Service; and (c) StackMap is not a party to, and bears no responsibility for, any transaction, communication, scam, or interaction occurring on a third-party site, regardless of whether the relevant link passed through Link Shield and regardless of the outcome of that review.

17A.4 No liability for resulting loss. To the maximum extent permitted by law, StackMap is not liable, under any theory of liability, for any loss whatsoever — including financial loss, fraud, identity theft, extortion, data loss, malware infection, device compromise, or any other harm — resulting from your use of, or reliance on, any link accessed, saved, opened, imported, or organised through the Service, whether or not Link Shield reviewed that link and irrespective of the outcome of that review. This exclusion is subject only to §14.4 (statutory rights that cannot be excluded by law).

17A.5 Reporting does not create liability. You may report a suspected dangerous or fraudulent link to contact@stackmap.net to help us improve Link Shield's filters. Reporting a link, and any action or inaction we take in response, does not create, waive, or expand any liability on our part for that link or any other link, before or after the report.

18. Third-Party Services

The Service may integrate with third-party services, including Google (for sign-in) and Supabase (for data storage). We do not control and are not responsible for the availability, content, security, or practices of any third-party service. Your use of a third-party service is governed solely by that provider's own terms and privacy policy, and any dispute arising from it is between you and that provider.

19. Release

To the maximum extent permitted by law, you release StackMap and its officers, directors, employees, contractors, and agents from any and all claims, demands, and damages of every kind, known or unknown, arising out of or in any way connected with disputes between you and any third party — including any third-party website, application, or service accessed through a link saved or launched via the Service. Nothing in this section limits your rights under §16.

20. Export Control and Sanctions

You must not use the Service in violation of Australian export control laws or applicable trade sanctions. You represent that you are not located in, resident of, or otherwise subject to comprehensive Australian or United Nations trade sanctions, and are not named on any restricted-party list administered by the Australian Government or a body it recognises.

21. Dispute Resolution

If a dispute arises out of or relates to this Agreement or the Service, both parties agree to first attempt in good faith to resolve it informally by contacting contact@stackmap.net and allowing at least 30 days for resolution before commencing formal proceedings. Where you are a consumer under the ACL, nothing in this section requires you to use any particular dispute process instead of, or before, exercising your rights under the ACL, including through a court, tribunal, or ombudsman scheme, and nothing in this section limits your right to seek urgent injunctive relief where appropriate.

22. Severability and Reading Down

If any provision of this Agreement is found by a court or regulator to be void, unenforceable, or an unfair contract term, that provision will be read down to the minimum extent necessary to make it enforceable and fair, and if it cannot be read down, it will be severed, with the remainder of this Agreement continuing in full force and effect.

23. Force Majeure

Neither party is liable for any delay or failure to perform any obligation under this Agreement (except payment obligations) caused by circumstances beyond its reasonable control, including natural disaster, war, act of terrorism, labour dispute, internet or telecommunications failure, or outage of a third-party infrastructure or payment provider.

24. Relationship of the Parties; No Third-Party Beneficiaries

Nothing in this Agreement creates a partnership, joint venture, agency, or employment relationship between you and StackMap. This Agreement is for the benefit of you and StackMap only and confers no rights on any third party, except that our officers, directors, employees, contractors, and agents may rely on §14, §15, and §19 as though they were a party.

25. General Provisions

Entire agreement. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between you and StackMap regarding the Service and supersedes all prior agreements, discussions, or understandings on the subject.

Assignment. You may not assign or transfer any right or obligation under this Agreement without our prior written consent. We may assign this Agreement, in whole or in part, without restriction, including in connection with a merger, acquisition, reorganisation, or sale of assets.

No waiver. Our failure to enforce any right or provision of this Agreement is not a waiver of that right or provision, and any waiver must be in writing to be effective.

Notices. We may provide notices to you by email, in-app notification, or posting on the Service. Notices to us must be sent to contact@stackmap.net.

Headings. Section headings are for convenience only and do not affect interpretation.

Interpretation. "Including" means "including without limitation" wherever used in this Agreement.
