Terms of Service

Last updated July 3, 2026. Plain-English draft — pending professional legal review; we'll note material changes here.

What Swornbook is (and isn't)

Swornbook organizes your business records: estimates, approvals, scope changes, photos, invoices, and payment status, in one time-stamped record per job.

Swornbook is not a law firm, accountant, or contract.It does not provide legal, tax, or accounting advice, and an organized record is not a substitute for a written contract or professional judgment. Whether any record helps in a specific dispute depends on facts and law we can't control — we make no guarantees about disputes or outcomes.

Your account

  • You're responsible for keeping your password safe and for what happens under your account.
  • You must have the right to store the client information you enter.
  • Don't use Swornbook for anything unlawful, and don't upload content you don't have rights to.

Approvals

Client approvals collected through portal links record a typed name and a server timestamp. You're responsible for confirming the person approving is authorized to do so.

Billing

  • New accounts get a 14-day free trial. No card is required to start.
  • Paid plans are billed monthly through Stripe and can be canceled anytime from Billing → Manage billing; you keep access through the period you've paid for.
  • If a payment fails, we'll flag it and pause the creation of new records until it's resolved. Your existing records stay viewable.

Your data

Your records belong to you. You can request an export or deletion at any time (see the Privacy Policy).

Service quality

Swornbook is provided “as is,” and while we work hard to keep it fast, correct, and available, we can't promise zero downtime or zero bugs — especially during the founding pilot. Our total liability for any claim is capped at what you've paid us in the twelve months before the claim.

Changes

We may update these terms as the product grows; material changes will be noted here with a new date, and continuing to use Swornbook after a change means you accept it.
