Terms of Service

Welcome to Squared Away ("Squared Away," "we," "our," or "us"). These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your access to and use of the Squared Away website, applications, and related services (collectively, the "Service").

1. About Squared Away

Squared Away is an operations platform that helps businesses create recurring checklists (daily, weekly, or monthly) that reset on schedule, assign work to a team, and track completion. On the Pro plan, the Service also includes time and attendance: clock in and out, breaks, timecards, shift and timecard approvals, exceptions, and payroll export.

Accounts use three roles — owner, manager, and staff — with different permissions. New signups receive a 14-day trial. After the trial, paid plans are Basic (core operational checklists and related features) and Pro Team (adds team management, attendance approvals and reports, and payroll export). Plan details shown at signup or in the product control what you can access.

Your use of the Service is also governed by our Privacy Policy and Cookie Policy, which explain how we collect, use, and protect your information.

2. Eligibility

You must be at least 18 years old and legally capable of entering into a binding agreement to use the Service.

If you create or use an account on behalf of a business or organization, you represent that you have the authority to bind that organization to these Terms.

3. Accounts

You are responsible for:

You are responsible for ensuring that only authorized individuals have access to your account.

4. Subscriptions and Billing

New accounts start with a 14-day trial. After the trial, continued use of paid features requires an active paid subscription (Basic or Pro Team, as selected).

Subscriptions automatically renew unless canceled before the next billing period.

You may cancel at any time through your account billing settings or Stripe. Cancellation stops future charges; access continues through the end of the current billing period (or remaining trial, if still on trial).

Unless otherwise required by law, fees already paid are non-refundable.

We reserve the right to change subscription pricing in the future. Any pricing changes will apply only to future billing periods after reasonable notice.
