Terms of Service — Auto-Scheduler

1. Who you are contracting with

Auto-Scheduler (“the Service”, “we”, “us”) is operated by:

Jakob Neumann

Eulerstrasse 12

13357 Berlin

Germany

These terms govern your use of auto-scheduler.net and the Auto-Scheduler web application. By creating an account you agree to them. Full provider details are in our Impressum.

2. What the Service does

Auto-Scheduler takes tasks you enter — each with a duration, a priority and optionally a due date — and books them into free slots inside the working hours you configure. If you connect Google Calendar, it writes those scheduled tasks as events into two calendars it creates for you, named “Work Tasks” and “Personal Tasks”.

Two limitations you should understand before subscribing:

Calendar sync is one-way. We write to the two calendars we create. If you move or edit one of those events directly in Google Calendar, your change will be overwritten the next time the scheduler runs, unless you lock the task in the app first.
Desktop only. The application is built for desktop browsers and is not supported on mobile devices.

The Service is a planning aid. It does not guarantee that a schedule it produces is achievable, complete, or correct for your circumstances. You remain responsible for your own commitments and deadlines.

3. Your account

An account requires signing in with a Google account. You must be at least 18 years old and have the capacity to enter into a binding contract. Accounts are personal — do not share your credentials or let another person use your account.

You are responsible for the security of the Google account you sign in with. Tell us promptly at info@auto-scheduler.net if you believe your account has been accessed without your permission.

4. Free trial

New accounts receive a free trial. Its length is stated in the app when you sign up. No payment details are required to start the trial.

The trial does not convert into a paid subscription automatically. When it ends, access to scheduling stops until you choose to subscribe. We offer one trial per person.

5. Subscription, prices and payment

Paid access is a subscription that renews automatically for successive periods until cancelled. The current price, billing period and any applicable VAT are shown before you confirm your purchase at checkout. That displayed price is the agreed price.

Payments are processed by Stripe. We do not receive or store your full card details. By subscribing you authorise us to charge the payment method you provide, for each renewal, until you cancel.

If a payment fails, we may suspend access to paid features until payment succeeds. We may change prices for future billing periods; we will give you at least 30 days’ notice by email before a change takes effect, and you may cancel before it does.

6. Cancellation

You can cancel at any time from Settings → Manage Subscription, which opens the Stripe billing portal. Cancellation takes effect at the end of the billing period you have already paid for; you keep access until then, and you are not charged again.

We may terminate or suspend an account for a serious or repeated breach of these terms, or if we are required to by law. Where we end a paid subscription without cause, we refund the unused remainder of the period on a pro-rata basis.

7. Right of withdrawal for consumers (Widerrufsrecht)

If you are a consumer in the European Union, you have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason. The withdrawal period expires 14 days after the day the contract is concluded.

To exercise it, inform us with a clear statement — an email to info@auto-scheduler.net is sufficient. Sending your notice before the period expires is enough to meet the deadline. If you withdraw, we reimburse all payments received from you without undue delay and no later than 14 days after we are informed, using the same payment method you used.

Because the Service is supplied digitally and immediately, you expressly request that we begin performance during the withdrawal period, and you acknowledge that you lose your right of withdrawal once the contract has been fully performed. Where performance has begun but is incomplete, you owe a proportionate amount for what has been supplied up to the point of withdrawal.

Separately from this statutory right, we will refund a subscription on request within 14 days of payment, no questions asked.

8. Google Calendar access

Connecting Google Calendar is optional; the Service works without it. If you connect it, you grant us access to your Google Calendar data solely to:

read your events and free/busy times, so tasks are not scheduled over existing commitments;
create the two calendars named “Work Tasks” and “Personal Tasks”;
list your calendars, so we can find those two again and let you choose which count as busy;
create, update and delete events inside those two calendars only.

We never modify or delete events on your own calendars. You can revoke our access at any time in your Google Account permissions. Our use of Google user data complies with the Google API Services User Data Policy, including its Limited Use requirements.

9. Acceptable use

You agree not to:

access the Service other than through the interfaces we provide, or automate access in a way that places an unreasonable load on it;
attempt to circumvent authentication, payment, rate limits or usage restrictions;
reverse engineer, resell or redistribute the Service;
use the Service unlawfully, or to store or transmit unlawful content.

10. Availability and warranty

We aim to keep the Service available, but we do not promise uninterrupted or error-free operation. Maintenance, third-party outages (including Google and Stripe) and factors outside our control can interrupt it.

Statutory warranty rights for consumers under German law are unaffected by these terms. Please keep your own record of anything critical rather than relying on the Service as your only copy.

11. Liability

We are liable without limitation for intent and gross negligence, for injury to life, body or health, and where liability is mandatory under the German Product Liability Act (Produkthaftungsgesetz).

For slight negligence we are liable only where an essential contractual obligation is breached — one whose fulfilment makes proper performance possible and on which you may reasonably rely — and then only for foreseeable damage typical of this type of contract.

Any further liability is excluded.

12. Your data

How we handle personal data is described in our privacy policy.

You can delete your account at any time from Settings. Deleting it removes your data from our database, deletes the two calendars we created in your Google account along with the events in them, and cancels any active subscription. This is irreversible.

13. Changes to these terms

We may update these terms — for example when the Service changes or the law does. If a change materially affects you, we will notify you by email at least 30 days before it takes effect. If you do not accept it, you may cancel before it applies. The date at the top of this page shows when it was last revised.

14. Governing law and disputes

German law applies, excluding the UN Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods. If you are a consumer resident in the EU, this does not deprive you of the protection of mandatory provisions of the law of your country of residence.

The European Commission provides a platform for online dispute resolution at https://ec.europa.eu/consumers/odr/. We are neither obliged nor willing to participate in dispute resolution proceedings before a consumer arbitration board.

Should any provision of these terms be or become invalid, the validity of the remaining provisions is unaffected.
