Terms of Service
Introduction
Welcome to idazery. These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your access to and use of idazery's digital journaling and planning platform at idazery.com (the "Service"). By creating an account or using our Service, you agree to be bound by these Terms.
Please read these Terms carefully before using our Service. If you do not agree with these Terms, you may not access or use the Service.
These Terms constitute a legally binding agreement between you and idazery. We may update these Terms from time to time. When we make changes, we will update the "Last updated" date at the top of this page. Your continued use of the Service after any changes constitutes your acceptance of the updated Terms.
Account Registration
Eligibility
You must be at least 16 years old to use idazery. By creating an account, you represent and warrant that you meet this age requirement and that all information you provide is accurate and complete.
Account Security
You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account credentials and for all activities that occur under your account. You agree to:
- Choose a strong, unique password
- Keep your password confidential and never share it with others
- Notify us immediately if you suspect unauthorized access to your account
- Accept responsibility for all activities conducted through your account
Account Information
You agree to provide accurate, current, and complete information during registration and to update this information as needed. We reserve the right to suspend or terminate accounts that contain inaccurate, fraudulent, or misleading information.
Plans and Pricing
idazery offers two paid plans, Journal and Complete, and each one can be taken for a year or for life. New accounts subscribe to one of them from the start: there is no free trial and no free plan. Journal and Complete are annual plans that do not renew by themselves, and the Lifetime versions are a single payment. Accounts created before 30 September 2026 keep the free trial and the free, limited access described in the Free Trial section. Subscriptions taken out under the earlier Pro and Premium plans (monthly or annual) keep working under the terms they were bought with until they end. For a complete comparison of features and capabilities, please visit our pricing page.
Available Plans
Journal: Your diary on its own: unlimited entries and history, up to five photos per entry, mood tracking, gallery, search, favorites, imports, exports (TXT, PDF, JSON and Markdown), two-factor authentication and quick lock.
Complete: Everything in Journal plus topics, tasks, the planner, mood patterns and trends, notes, statistics, the idazery Method and auto-lock.
Lifetime: Journal Lifetime and Complete Lifetime include the same as Journal and Complete, paid once, with no renewals. "Lifetime" means for as long as idazery operates the Service (see Termination). They are on sale permanently, unless we say otherwise on the pricing page.
Fair use: The Lifetime plans are meant for normal personal use of a diary. They do not cover using the Service to store files or content that is not your diary, or automated or bulk use that harms other users; in that case we may ask you to reduce it or suspend that part of the use.
Pricing
Annual plans (one payment per year, no automatic renewal):
- Journal: €12/year or $12/year or R$30/year
- Complete: €24/year or $24/year or R$60/year
Lifetime plans (single payment):
- Journal Lifetime: €49 or $49 or R$119
- Complete Lifetime: €99 or $99 or R$249
Subscriptions taken out under the earlier Pro and Premium plans keep the price you accepted when you subscribed.
Currency Selection: You can choose to pay in Euros (EUR) or US Dollars (USD) regardless of your location. Brazilian Reais (BRL) are available only under the conditions below.
Prices in Brazilian Reais (BRL)
Prices in BRL are available only to residents of Brazil. By selecting BRL, you confirm that you reside in Brazil and that your payment method was issued in Brazil. We reserve the right to reject payments, or to cancel subscriptions and refund what was paid, that do not comply with this policy.
To apply this policy we check the country of your visit from your IP address, using the free database of DB-IP.com (IP Geolocation by DB-IP), and the country in which your card was issued. We do not store your IP address for this.
Free Trial and Limited Access (Accounts Created Before 30 September 2026)
This section applies only to accounts created before 30 September 2026. New accounts have no free trial and no free plan.
14-Day Pro Trial
If you sign up for the free trial instead of subscribing directly, you automatically receive 14 days of full access to Pro plan features. This trial allows you to experience the complete idazery platform before deciding which plan works best for you.
Trial Terms
- No Credit Card Required: You can start your trial without providing payment information
- No Automatic Charges: Your trial will not automatically convert to a paid subscription
- After Trial Ends: Your account automatically switches to free, limited access with your most recent 15 days of entries
- Upgrade Anytime: You can subscribe to a paid plan at any time during or after your trial
Trial Limitations
The free trial is intended for new users to evaluate our Service. We reserve the right to limit trial access to one trial per person or household. Creating multiple accounts to abuse the trial period is prohibited and may result in account termination.
Billing and Payment
Payment Processing
All payments are processed securely through Stripe, our third-party payment processor. We do not store your complete payment card information on our servers. By providing payment information, you authorize us to charge the applicable fees to your chosen payment method.
Billing Cycles
Journal and Complete: Billed once per year. They do not renew by themselves: at the end of the year your plan simply ends, unless you turned on renewal in your account settings. We email you before the end date so you can decide. If you turn renewal on, we charge the price of the plan on the end date. After that payment the plan goes back to not renewing by itself, and you decide again each year.
Lifetime: A single payment. There are no further charges.
Earlier Pro and Premium plans: Monthly plans are billed on the same day each month and annual plans once per year, and they renew automatically until cancelled.
Price Changes
We may change our pricing from time to time. If we increase the price of your current plan, we will notify you at least 30 days before the change takes effect. The new price will apply at your next renewal date. If you do not agree with the price change, you may cancel your subscription before the new price takes effect.
Taxes
All prices are exclusive of applicable taxes, duties, or similar charges imposed by tax authorities. You are responsible for paying all such taxes associated with your subscription. If we are required to collect such taxes, they will be added to your invoice.
Failed Payments
If a payment fails (due to insufficient funds, expired card, or other reasons), we will attempt to process the payment again. If payment cannot be processed after multiple attempts, your subscription ends and the same rules as a cancellation apply (see Cancellation and Refunds): your data is kept for 60 days so you can reactivate your subscription, for example with another card, or export it. Accounts created before 30 September 2026 are downgraded to free, limited access instead.
Cancellation and Refunds
Cancelling Your Subscription
Journal and Complete do not renew by themselves, so there is nothing to cancel unless you turned renewal on. You can turn renewal on or off at any time from your account settings. Subscriptions under the earlier Pro and Premium plans can be cancelled at any time from the same place. When your plan ends or you cancel:
- You retain full access to paid features until the end of your current paid period
- You will not be charged again unless you turn renewal on or subscribe again
- At the end of the paid period your plan ends. If your account has the free Start plan, it goes back to it and nothing you wrote is deleted. Otherwise your data is kept for 60 days so you can reactivate your plan or export it; after that, your account and all its data are permanently deleted
- Accounts created before 30 September 2026 switch instead to free, limited access, and their data remains available according to that plan's features
- Lifetime cannot be cancelled because there is nothing to renew
30-Day Money-Back Guarantee
If the first payment on your account is for an annual plan (Journal or Complete) or for a Lifetime plan, you can ask for a full refund within 30 days of that payment. You do it from your account settings (Subscription) with one button, and you don't need to give a reason. The refund covers that first payment and anything else paid since then (for example, the prorated charge of an upgrade to Complete). The guarantee applies once per account and does not apply to the monthly plans of the earlier Pro and Premium or to accounts whose first payment was monthly.
When you ask for the refund, your subscription is cancelled immediately and your account and all its data are scheduled for deletion 30 days later. Until then you can sign in and export your data. To keep your account, you need to subscribe again before that date.
Refund Policy
Apart from the 30-day money-back guarantee and any right that applicable law gives you (for example, the right of withdrawal of consumers in the European Union), payments are final and non-refundable. We do not provide refunds or credits for partial months or years of service, upgrades, downgrades, or unused time with an active subscription. If you cancel your subscription, you will continue to have access to paid features until the end of your current billing period.
Changes to Plans
Upgrading Your Plan
You may upgrade from Journal to Complete at any time (accounts created before 30 September 2026 can also upgrade during the free trial or from limited access). When you upgrade:
- You receive immediate access to all features of your new plan
- You are charged only the difference for the time left in your current paid period, and your new plan runs until the end of that period
Changing to a Lower Plan
Journal and Complete are annual plans paid in advance, so they cannot be changed to a lower plan in the middle of a paid period and no prorated refunds or credits are provided for the time remaining. When your period ends you can choose any plan available at that moment. Subscriptions under the earlier Pro and Premium plans can be downgraded from Premium to Pro at the start of the next billing period. Your data is preserved, but access may be limited according to your new plan's features.
Plan Feature Changes
We reserve the right to modify, add, or remove features from any plan at any time. We will make reasonable efforts to notify you of significant changes to your plan's features.
