Terms
Last updated 16 August 2026
KinCircle is made by one person and given away. These terms are short because the arrangement is short: you use it, it is free, and if it stops being useful you take your family's records and go.
What you are agreeing to
- You are old enough to enter an agreement, and the family details you add are yours to add — your own family, or people who would not mind.
- You will not use it to harass anybody, and you will not try to break into other people's families' records.
- You are responsible for what you send. KinCircle drafts messages; you decide whether to send them, to whom, and when.
What it costs
Nothing today. Everything that costs nothing to run — the people, the dates, the reminders, the family tree, the plain cards — is intended to stay free. Illustrated cards are drawn by a model that bills per image, so those are capped, and if paid plans ever appear that is what they will be for. Nothing will start charging without being said first, and no feature you rely on today will be taken away and sold back to you.
What is yours
Your family's records are yours. Ask for an export and you get all of it. Ask for deletion and it is deleted — see the privacy page for exactly what that means and how long it takes.
What is not promised
This is early software run on a single rented server by somebody who also has a job. It will occasionally be down. A reminder may be late, or — if the server is unreachable at the wrong moment — may not arrive at all.
So: do not use KinCircle as the only place a date exists. It is provided as it is, without warranty, and its author cannot be liable for a missed birthday, a lost message, or anything else that follows from using it. If that trade is not acceptable for something important, keep it written down elsewhere too.
Ending it
You can stop whenever you like, by deleting your account. KinCircle may close an account that is being used to harass somebody or to attack the service, and would say why.
The law
These terms are governed by the laws of India. If some part of them turns out to be unenforceable, the rest still stands.
