Thali Tracker
Terms & Conditions
Effective 3 September 2026 · Last updated 3 September 2026
In plain words. Thali Tracker is a free notebook for meal expenses. It is a record-keeping tool, not an accounting service and not financial advice. The numbers it shows are only as correct as what you type in. Keep your own backups, and don't rely on it as your sole record of money owed.
1. Agreement
By installing or using Thali Tracker ("the app"), you agree to these terms. If you do not agree, please do not use the app. These terms are between you and Thali Tracker (phantombluefire11@gmail.com). Your use of the app is also subject to the Google Play Terms of Service.
2. Licence
You are granted a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable licence to use the app on devices you own or control, for your own personal, non-commercial purposes. You may not sell, rent, sublicense, or redistribute the app, nor decompile, reverse-engineer or attempt to derive its source code, except to the extent that applicable law expressly permits it.
3. The app is a record-keeping tool only
This is the most important term in this document, so it is stated plainly:
- The app performs arithmetic on figures you enter. It does not verify them.
- It is not financial, accounting, tax, legal or investment advice.
- It is not a payment service. It cannot send, receive, hold or transfer money.
- It has no connection to, and no agreement with, any mess, canteen, caterer or restaurant.
- Balances it displays have no legal force. They do not constitute an invoice, a receipt, a demand for payment, or proof that any amount is owed or has been paid.
Any dispute about money owed is between you and the other party. Settle it with your own records and agreement, not with a screenshot from this app.
4. Your responsibilities
- Accuracy. You are responsible for what you enter and for checking that the totals match reality.
- Backups. Your data lives on your device. Phones get lost, broken, wiped and replaced. Use the app's Export or Google Drive backup regularly. We cannot recover data for you, because we never have it.
- Restores. Restoring a backup replaces the meals and payments currently in the app. The app warns you before this happens; the decision is yours.
- Your device. Keeping your phone and your Google Account secure is your responsibility.
5. Google Drive backup
Drive backup is optional and off unless you enable it. It stores backups in a private folder in your own Google Drive. We have no access to that folder and cannot retrieve, restore or delete your backups for you. Availability of the feature depends on Google's services, which are outside our control. See the Privacy Policy for detail.
6. No warranty
The app is provided free of charge, "as is" and "as available", without warranty of any kind, express or implied, including any implied warranty of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, accuracy or non-infringement. We do not warrant that the app will be uninterrupted, error-free, free of data loss, or compatible with every device or Android version.
7. Limitation of liability
To the fullest extent permitted by law, we are not liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential or punitive damages, nor for any loss of data, loss of profits, loss of savings, or disputes with third parties, arising from or connected to your use of or inability to use the app — even if we have been advised that such loss is possible.
Because the app is supplied free of charge, our total aggregate liability to you for any claim relating to the app is limited to the amount you paid for it, which is zero.
Nothing in these terms limits liability that cannot lawfully be limited, including liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence, or for fraud.
8. Availability and changes
We may update, change or discontinue the app at any time, with or without notice. We are under no obligation to provide support, updates or continued availability. If the app is discontinued, any copy already installed on your device will keep working for as long as your device supports it, and your data remains yours.
9. Changes to these terms
These terms may be revised. The current version always lives at this address with its "last updated" date. Continuing to use the app after a change means you accept the revised terms.
10. Governing law
These terms are governed by the laws of India, and the courts of India shall have jurisdiction over any dispute arising from them. If you use the app from another country, you remain responsible for complying with your local laws.
