Teal Bar Terms of Service
Effective July 23, 2026
These Terms of Service and end user license agreement (the “Terms”) are a binding contract between you and Tripletail Studios LLC, a Florida limited liability company (“Tripletail Studios,” “we,” “us,” or “our”), governing the Teal Bar app and related services (the “App”). Our Privacy Policy, available at tealbar.com/privacy, is incorporated into and forms part of these Terms.
1. Acceptance
Before you create an account, whether by email or through Sign in with Apple, the App presents these Terms and the Privacy Policy and asks you to accept them by checking a box. We record the version you accepted and the date. By accepting these Terms, downloading the App, creating an account, or using the App, you agree to be bound by them. If we change these Terms materially, you will be asked to accept the new version before continuing to use the App. If you do not agree, do not use the App.
2. Eligibility: 21 or older
The App deals with alcoholic beverages and is for adults only. You may use it only if you are at least 21 years old and of legal drinking age and legal majority where you live. The App is offered only in the United States.
Before you create an account, the App asks for your date of birth and confirms on your device that you qualify. That check is a self-declaration, not identity verification, and by using the App you represent that your answer was truthful. Do not let anyone under 21 use your account, and do not use the App to encourage or enable underage drinking.
3. Children
The App is not directed to children, and no one under 21 may use it under any circumstances. Our Privacy Policy describes how we handle a minor’s information if we ever receive it.
4. License
We grant you a limited, personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable, revocable license to install and use the App on Apple-branded devices you own or control, solely for personal, non-commercial purposes and consistent with Apple’s usage rules. You may not, except as expressly permitted by applicable law, copy, modify, translate, or create derivative works of the App; reverse engineer, decompile, disassemble, or attempt to derive its source code; rent, lease, lend, sell, redistribute, sublicense, or commercially exploit it; remove proprietary notices; bypass authentication, rate limits, subscription checks, or other security controls; or use it unlawfully or to violate another person’s rights.
5. Your account
Keep your sign-in credentials secure, keep your information accurate, and tell us at [email protected] if you suspect unauthorized use. You are responsible for all activity on your account, whether or not you authorized it.
Email sign-in and Sign in with Apple create separate accounts unless you link them in Settings under Sign-In Methods, and a subscription belongs to the account that purchased it. You can delete your account in Settings at any time. Deleting your account does not cancel an Apple subscription (see section 9).
6. Your content
You own what you create in the App, including bottles, recipes, logs, lists, photos, and prompts. You give us and our service providers a limited, non-exclusive, royalty-free, fully paid-up, worldwide permission to host, transmit, reproduce, format, and process that content solely as reasonably necessary to operate, secure, maintain, and support the App and the features you use. We do not use your content to train AI or machine learning models, and our AI provider is contractually prohibited from using it to train its models. This permission ends when you delete the content or your account, apart from short-lived technical copies, lawful retention, and content already processed at your direction.
Do not submit content you have no right to share, another person’s personal information without permission, or anything unlawful.
7. AI features
The App can suggest drinks, read bottle labels and shelf photos, fill in bottle details, and generate recipe instructions using Anthropic, a third-party AI service. These features stay off until you enable them.
AI output can be wrong, incomplete, unsafe, or unsuitable, and similar output may be generated for other users. Check ingredients, allergens, measurements, alcohol content, and the identity and safety of any bottle or ingredient yourself before relying on them. Never use the App to determine whether you are safe to drive, operate machinery, supervise another person, or perform any activity requiring unimpaired judgment. The App shows reminders where AI output appears; they supplement your duty to verify, not replace it. AI output is information and entertainment only. It is not medical, health, dietary, legal, sobriety, safety, or other professional advice, and the App is not offered or marketed as a safety, measurement, or verification tool. To the extent the law allows, you assume the risks of acting on AI output. This does not limit liability that the law does not permit us to exclude (sections 8 and 15).
We claim no ownership of AI output generated for you.
8. Alcohol safety and responsibility
Alcohol carries real risks, including impairment, accidents, illness, interactions with medication, harm during pregnancy, dependency, and injury to you or others. Drink responsibly and in moderation, and never drive after drinking. The App does not sell, supply, serve, or deliver alcohol, does not monitor consumption, and must never be used to judge or estimate blood alcohol level, sobriety, or fitness to drive.
Recipe, ingredient, and label information can be incomplete or wrong. If you have allergies, a medical condition, or take medication, or if you are pregnant or nursing, consult a professional before drinking. In an emergency, call emergency services.
You alone are responsible for drinks you prepare or serve to others, including checking age, consent, ingredients, allergens, measurements, intoxication, and compliance with alcohol and social host laws. Never serve a minor or someone visibly intoxicated.
To the extent the law allows, you assume the inherent risks of deciding to prepare, serve, or consume alcoholic drinks using information from the App. Nothing in this section limits liability for gross negligence, willful misconduct, fraud, or personal injury where the law does not allow that liability to be limited.
9. Subscriptions and billing
Teal Bar Pro is an auto-renewing subscription sold through Apple. The price, term, and features shown at purchase are part of your agreement. Apple bills your Apple ID and renews the subscription until you cancel in your Apple subscription settings. Deleting the App or your Teal Bar account does not cancel a subscription.
There is no free trial; subscribing bills you immediately at the price shown. The free tier includes a temporary daily allowance of AI features after setup. When that period ends, the free tier continues without AI. Nothing converts to a paid plan and there is nothing you need to cancel. Apple handles refund requests, and nothing in these Terms limits your statutory rights.
10. Acceptable use
Do not use the App to break the law or violate another person’s rights; to encourage dangerous, unlawful, or underage drinking; to upload malicious, unlawful, infringing, or unauthorized content; to gain unauthorized access to accounts, systems, or providers; to probe, overload, scrape, or bypass the App, its security, or its providers; to extract or use AI functionality to build a competing model or service where provider terms prohibit that; or to submit content designed to manipulate the AI or push it outside the App’s cocktail and inventory purpose.
11. Intellectual property and copyright complaints
The App, including its software, design, branding, text, graphics, and other materials supplied by Tripletail Studios, belongs to Tripletail Studios or its licensors. These Terms grant only the license in section 4. If a third party claims the App infringes intellectual property rights, Tripletail Studios, not Apple, is responsible for addressing the claim.
To report a copyright concern, email [email protected] with the information the Digital Millennium Copyright Act requires: identification of the work and of the material at issue, your contact details, a good-faith statement that the use is unauthorized, a statement under penalty of perjury that your notice is accurate and you are authorized to act, and your signature. We respond as the DMCA provides, including removing material and closing the accounts of repeat infringers where that ever applies.
12. Third-party services
The App depends on Apple, Supabase, Anthropic, Cloudflare, Sentry, and RevenueCat. Your existing agreements with Apple (Media Services and iCloud) and with your wireless carrier apply to your use of the App; we do not control those services or agreements and do not add to their obligations. We remain responsible for our own duties, but to the extent the law permits we are not responsible for the acts of independent third parties.
13. Changes, availability, and support
We may change, suspend, or discontinue features for security, legal, technical, or business reasons. Where practicable we will give reasonable notice of a material reduction in paid functionality, along with any remedy the law requires. We do not promise uninterrupted availability. Support is available at [email protected]; Apple has no obligation to provide maintenance or support.
14. Disclaimer of warranties
The App and AI output are provided “as is” and “as available.” To the extent the law allows, we disclaim implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement, and we do not warrant that the App will be uninterrupted, error-free, or secure, or that content or AI output will be accurate or safe. This section does not exclude any warranty or consumer right that cannot lawfully be excluded.
15. Limits on liability
To the extent the law allows, Tripletail Studios and its affiliates and their respective members, officers, and employees are not liable for indirect, incidental, special, exemplary, punitive, or consequential damages, or for lost profits, business, goodwill, or data. Our total liability for all claims relating to the App is capped at the greater of the amount you paid us in the twelve months before the event giving rise to the claim or one hundred U.S. dollars.
These limits do not apply to fraud, gross negligence, willful or reckless misconduct (each as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction or arbitrator), death or personal injury caused by a party’s negligence, breaches of mandatory consumer or privacy law, or any other liability the law does not allow us to limit. The cap applies only to ordinary commercial loss. Some jurisdictions do not allow certain exclusions, so parts of this section may not apply to you.
16. Indemnification
If a third party brings a claim against us arising from your unlawful or commercial misuse of the App, your infringement of that party’s rights through your content, or your material breach of these Terms, you will cover the resulting damages and reasonable costs, except to the extent the claim results from our own conduct or consumer law provides otherwise.
In turn, if a third party claims that the App itself, as we provided it and as used within these Terms, infringes their United States intellectual property rights, we will defend you and pay any resulting settlement or final judgment, provided you notify us promptly, let us control the defense, and reasonably cooperate with us at our expense. Our aggregate liability under this paragraph will not exceed the cap stated in section 15. This is your exclusive remedy for such claims and does not cover claims arising from your content, AI-generated output, your modifications, use of the App with products we did not supply, or use outside these Terms.
17. Suspension and termination
We may suspend or terminate an account when reasonably necessary to address a material or repeated breach, fraud, unauthorized access, abuse of the App or its providers, a security risk, a legal requirement, or harm to another person, and where appropriate we will give notice and a chance to cure. We act without prior notice only when delay would create real risk, such as an active security threat, suspected fraud or unauthorized access, unlawful activity, danger to a person, or a court order, and we limit that action to what the situation requires.
Your bar content lives in your own iCloud account, so closing your Teal Bar account does not by itself delete your recipes or inventory there, and that content remains subject to your Apple account and Apple’s terms. Where practicable and lawful, we will give you a reasonable opportunity to export anything we control before termination takes effect. You may stop using the App and delete your account at any time. Sections 6 through 8, 11, 14 through 16, and 18 through 22 survive termination.
18. Governing law and disputes
Florida law governs these Terms without regard to conflict of law rules. Except to the extent prohibited by applicable law, any dispute arising out of or relating to the App or these Terms will be resolved by binding individual arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) under its Consumer Arbitration Rules, rather than in court, except that either party may bring an individual claim in small claims court and either party may seek injunctive or equitable relief in court for misuse of the App or infringement or misappropriation of intellectual property. You and Tripletail Studios waive any right to a jury trial and any right to participate in a class, collective, coordinated, consolidated, or representative action or arbitration. If the class-action waiver is found unenforceable as to a particular claim, that claim must proceed in court and not in arbitration, and the remaining claims must be arbitrated on an individual basis to the extent permitted by law. Before starting a proceeding, the complaining party must send written notice to [email protected] or, if Tripletail Studios is the complaining party, to the email address associated with your account, and allow 30 days to try to resolve the dispute informally. To the extent the law allows, a claim must be filed within one year after it arises; this limit does not apply where the law prohibits shortening the limitations period. Before filing anything, please contact us at [email protected]. Most problems are resolved faster that way.
19. Apple App Store terms
Because the App is distributed through Apple’s App Store: these Terms are between you and Tripletail Studios, not Apple, and we alone are responsible for the App; the license in section 4 must not conflict with Apple’s usage rules; Apple has no maintenance, support, or warranty obligation beyond, at most, refunding the purchase price if the App fails to conform to an applicable warranty; we, not Apple, are responsible for product liability, legal, regulatory, consumer protection, and intellectual property claims relating to the App; and Apple and its subsidiaries are third-party beneficiaries of these Terms and may enforce them against you. That last provision is required of every app distributed through the App Store.
20. Export controls
You represent that you are not located in a country subject to a U.S. government embargo or designated as supporting terrorism and are not on any U.S. restricted party list, and you agree to comply with applicable export and sanctions laws. The App is distributed only through the United States App Store, whose regional controls limit where it can be downloaded.
21. General terms
These Terms, the Privacy Policy, and the disclosures shown at purchase are the entire agreement about the App. If any provision is unenforceable, it will be enforced to the extent permitted and the rest will stand. Not enforcing a provision is not a waiver. Headings are for convenience only. You may not assign these Terms; we may assign them without your consent in connection with a merger, financing, reorganization, or sale of all or substantially all of our business or assets, provided that the assignee assumes our obligations under these Terms. Neither party is liable for delay or failure caused by events beyond its reasonable control, except that this does not affect your payment obligations for services already provided or any mandatory consumer right. Where mandatory law conflicts with these Terms, the law controls. We may revise these Terms prospectively; material changes require your renewed acceptance as described in section 1, and the date above reflects the current version.
