HiveHabits Terms of Use
Last updated: 28 October 2026
These terms are an agreement between you and HiveThoughts Technologies Private Limited, a company incorporated in India, of Madurai, Tamil Nadu ("HiveThoughts", "we", "us") — for the HiveHabits app. By installing or using HiveHabits you accept them. If you do not, please do not use the app.
Our Privacy Policy explains how information is handled and forms part of these terms.
1. What HiveHabits is
HiveHabits helps you track habits, plan goals from the year down to today, keep a daily log, review your months and see your progress, all on your phone. You must be at least 18 years old to use it.
2. Not medical, health or financial advice
HiveHabits' figures and suggestions — streaks, Insights, LifeScore, sleep, water and mood readings, BMI and other health figures, and the wealth tracker — are worked out from what you enter, using simple rules. They are general information to help you reflect, not medical, health, fitness, nutritional, psychological or financial advice, and HiveHabits is not a medical device. Talk to a doctor or another qualified professional before making decisions about your health, and to a qualified adviser about money.
3. Your information and backups
Your records are stored only on your phone; we do not receive them and cannot recover them. You are responsible for keeping your phone secure and for making backups (Settings → Backup). A backup holds your records but not your photos. We are not responsible for loss of data caused by losing or resetting your phone, uninstalling the app, or not having a backup.
4. The free version and HiveHabits Premium
- Free to use. Your habits, goals, tasks, daily log, health measurements, reviews, backups, and reading anything you have entered are free in every version, for as long as HiveHabits is offered.
- No ads for your first 30 days from the first time you open HiveHabits. After that, the free version shows full-screen ads between screens, and ads may come a little more often from day 60.
- From day 60, Insights, the LifeScore year view and the PDF planner open for the rest of the day after you watch one short video ad. If no video is available, they open anyway for that day.
- HiveHabits Premium is a one-time purchase, not a subscription, made through Google Play or the App Store at the price shown there. It removes all ads and opens everything, on devices using the same store account, for as long as we offer HiveHabits on that store. Use "Restore purchases" on a new phone.
- Payments, receipts and refunds are handled by Google or Apple under their own terms. We cannot issue refunds directly.
- Prices may differ between countries and may change. A price change never affects a purchase you have already made.
- Changing your phone's date or reinstalling the app does not restart the first 30 days.
5. Referral program
- You get your own referral code by signing up on the Hive Rewards website, which Settings → Referral program opens, and share it from there.
- When someone buys HiveHabits Premium with your code, you may earn a reward. A buyer who uses a valid code may get a lower price. The amount, how rewards are collected and paid, and their conditions are set out in the Hive Rewards terms on the Hive Rewards website, where you sign in to collect them.
- You may not use your own code on your own purchase, create purchases or codes to earn rewards for yourself, or promote your code by spam or by misleading claims. We may withhold rewards and disable codes involved in abuse.
- We may change or end the referral program. Rewards already earned under the rules at the time will be honoured as the Hive Rewards terms describe.
6. Ads
Ads in the free version are supplied by Google AdMob. We do not control the content of individual ads, and an ad is not an endorsement by us. Tapping an ad takes you to a third party, whose terms and privacy policy apply.
7. Your licence to use HiveHabits
We give you a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable licence to use HiveHabits on devices you own or control, under these terms and the rules of the store you got it from. You may not copy, resell, modify, reverse-engineer (except where the law allows it), interfere with its ads or purchases, or use HiveHabits to break any law. HiveHabits, its name, logo and content belong to HiveThoughts.
8. Changes to HiveHabits
We may add, change or remove features, and may stop offering HiveHabits. What section 4 says is free stays free while HiveHabits is offered. If we stop offering HiveHabits, the app on your phone and your records will keep working as they are, but may no longer receive updates.
9. No warranty
HiveHabits is provided "as is". We work to make it accurate and reliable, but we do not promise that it will be error-free or uninterrupted, or that reminders will always arrive (your phone's settings and battery saving can stop them). Nothing in these terms removes rights you have under consumer protection law that cannot be removed by agreement.
10. Limitation of liability
To the extent the law allows, HiveThoughts is not liable for indirect or consequential losses, lost profits, lost data, or for decisions you make using HiveHabits' figures and suggestions. Our total liability for any claim about HiveHabits is limited to the amount you paid for HiveHabits Premium. Nothing here limits liability that cannot be limited by law.
11. Ending these terms
You can stop at any time by uninstalling HiveHabits. We may end your licence if you seriously break these terms. Sections 2, 3, 9, 10 and 12 continue after that.
12. Law and disputes
These terms are governed by the laws of India. Courts in Madurai, Tamil Nadu have jurisdiction, without taking away any right you have to bring a claim where you live under your local consumer law. Please contact us first; most problems can be sorted out quickly.
13. App Store users
If you got HiveHabits from Apple's App Store:
- These terms are between you and HiveThoughts only, not Apple. HiveThoughts, not Apple, is responsible for HiveHabits and its content.
- Your licence is limited to Apple-branded devices you own or control, as allowed by the App Store's Usage Rules.
- Apple has no obligation to provide maintenance or support for HiveHabits.
- If HiveHabits does not match any applicable warranty, you may tell Apple, and Apple will refund the purchase price, if any. To the extent the law allows, Apple has no other warranty obligation for HiveHabits.
- HiveThoughts, not Apple, handles any claims about HiveHabits, including product liability, failure to meet legal or regulatory requirements, and consumer protection or privacy claims.
- HiveThoughts, not Apple, is responsible for investigating and handling any claim that HiveHabits infringes someone's intellectual property rights.
- You confirm you are not in a country under a US Government embargo or designated as "terrorist supporting", and are not on a US Government list of prohibited or restricted parties.
- Apple and its subsidiaries are third-party beneficiaries of these terms and may enforce them against you.
14. Changes to these terms
We may update these terms. We will change the date at the top and, for important changes, tell you in the app or on our website before they apply. Continuing to use HiveHabits after that means you accept the updated terms.
