Draft. To be reviewed by a lawyer before launch. It describes how OnBar works today, in plain words.
Terms
These terms are an agreement between you and OnBar about using OnBar: the website at app.getonbar.com and the OnBar app for iPhone. By ticking “I agree” when you first sign in, you accept them and our Privacy Policy.
What OnBar is
OnBar is a tool for running a coffee shop: schedules, weekly lists, check-ins, numbers, vendors, time clock, messages between the team, and reminders. A shop (the business) has an OnBar account. Its owners invite the people who work there, and decide who can see and change what.
Who can use it
- OnBar is for people working at, or running, a business that uses it. There is no public sign-up: you get in by invitation.
- You need to be old enough to work at your shop, and at least 13.
- Keep your password to yourself. You are responsible for what is done with your sign-in. Tell us at info@getonbar.com if you think someone else has it.
Your shop's information
- What a shop puts into OnBar belongs to the shop. We look after it and use it only to run OnBar for them (see the Privacy Policy).
- OnBar staff cannot see inside a shop, except for a read-only look the owner allows for an hour at a time, and a download of the shop's information when needed for support. Both are recorded and shown to the owner.
- An owner can ask us for a copy of their shop's information, or to close the shop and delete it, by writing to info@getonbar.com.
Trials, plans and payment
- A shop's free trial starts when its owner first signs in and agrees to these terms, and lasts the number of days we told them when we invited them.
- When a trial ends without a plan, the shop becomes read-only. Nothing is deleted.
- Plans are arranged between the shop's owner and us, outside the app. Nothing is sold or paid for inside the app, and the app does not show prices. Your shop's owner manages the plan.
Messages and acceptable use
Messages in OnBar are between people at the same shop. When you post, keep it to what you would say at work. Don't post anything that:
- harasses, threatens, bullies or demeans anyone, or is hateful because of who someone is;
- is sexual, violent or otherwise offensive;
- shares someone else's private information without their agreement;
- is unlawful, or is spam or advertising.
Report and block. On any message you can choose Report (it goes to your shop's owners, and the sender is not told who reported it) or Block (you stop seeing that person's direct messages and they can't message you directly). A filter masks common abusive words and flags the message to the owners. Owners can remove messages, and can send a report on to us. You can also write to us at any time at info@getonbar.com; we look at every report and act on it, including removing content and the people who post it.
Deleting your account
You can delete your account yourself, at any time, from inside OnBar: open the menu under your picture and choose Delete my account. The Privacy Policy says exactly what that removes and what stays with the shop.
Things we ask you not to do
- Try to get into another shop's information, or around the access your shop gave you.
- Interfere with OnBar, overload it, or copy it.
- Use OnBar to break the law.
We may suspend an account that does these things, or that breaks the rules on messages, and we will tell the shop's owners.
Payroll and pay
OnBar keeps hours and exports them for your shop's payroll service. It never calculates pay, taxes or deductions; your shop and its payroll service do.
The service
- We work to keep OnBar running and your information safe, but we can't promise it will never be unavailable or never have a mistake. Keep anything you legally must keep (like payroll records) in your own systems too.
- OnBar is provided as it is. As far as the law allows, we are not responsible for indirect losses, such as lost sales or profit, from using it or not being able to.
- [Limits on liability, the governing law and how disputes are handled: to be written with a lawyer.]
Changes to these terms
If we change these terms in a way that matters, we put the date of the new version at the top and ask you to agree again the next time you sign in. OnBar asks before letting you into your shop, once per new version.
