Terms of Service

These Terms of Service govern your use of presentationtimer.org and the PresentationTimer timer-room service. By using the site, you agree to these terms.

Use of the Service

PresentationTimer lets you create and share browser-based timer rooms for talks, meetings, webinars, classes, rehearsals, and live events. You may use the service only in a lawful manner and only for legitimate timing and coordination purposes.

Eligibility

You must be at least 13 years old to create a PresentationTimer account. The sign-in flow asks you to confirm this before your Google account is linked. If you are between 13 and the age of majority where you live, you may use paid features only with the permission of a parent or legal guardian. If you are under 13, you may not create an account or make a purchase; an adult can operate a room for you.

If you are in the European Economic Area or the United Kingdom and are under 16, you may create an account only with the permission of a parent or guardian.

Access Links and Host Control

Host links and host tokens provide control over a timer room. You are responsible for keeping those links private. Anyone with a valid host link or token may be able to control the room.

Acceptable Use

You agree not to:

• Use the service to break the law or violate the rights of others.
• Interfere with the site, sync systems, or other users' rooms.
• Attempt unauthorized access to rooms, tokens, infrastructure, or accounts.
• Use automated abuse, scraping, or denial-of-service behavior against the site.
• Misrepresent your identity or your authority to control a room.

Plans, Passes, and Billing

PresentationTimer offers a free plan, paid monthly or annual subscriptions (Pro and Premium), and one-time 30-day passes. Prices, plan limits, and the features included in each plan are shown on the Pricing page at the time of purchase. Paid access belongs to one Google account; it is not priced per seat or per team.

Payments are processed by Stripe. By starting a subscription you authorize Stripe to charge your payment method at the price and interval shown at checkout, and to renew that charge automatically at the end of each billing period until the subscription is canceled.

Automatic renewal. The price and billing interval for a subscription are displayed next to the subscribe button and again on the Stripe checkout screen. Before checkout you must tick a box confirming that you understand the subscription renews automatically. Unless you cancel before the renewal date, your subscription will continue and your payment method will be charged the same amount at the same interval (monthly or annual) for each new period. Canceling stops the next renewal; it does not refund the period you have already paid for. See the Cancellation section below. A 30-day pass is a single payment: it does not renew automatically, and access ends 30 days after successful payment.

We may change prices, plan limits, or paid features. A price change does not alter the price you confirmed for the current period; it applies to later renewals after the change is shown on the Pricing page or notified to you. If you do not accept a price change, cancel before the next renewal.

Cancellation

You can cancel a subscription at any time from Account → Billing, which opens the Stripe customer portal. Cancellation takes effect at the end of the current paid period: paid features stay available until then, and the subscription does not renew. Canceling a subscription is not a refund of the current period. 30-day passes cannot be canceled; they simply expire after 30 days.

Refunds

We want the service to work for you. If a charge looks wrong, contact support@presentationtimer.org and we will review it. The short version is below; the full policy is in our Refund Policy.

A period you have already used is not refundable by default. That includes subscription periods during which you used paid features, and 30-day passes that have been activated. Refunds are considered case by case and may be approved for situations such as an accidental or duplicate purchase, a purchase made by mistake shortly before you contact us, or a billing error.

If we approve a full refund of the invoice for the current period, the paid access for that period ends immediately and the related subscription is canceled; the account returns to the Free plan. For a 30-day pass, an approved full refund removes that pass's access period. A partial refund does not change access unless we confirm otherwise in writing. Saved rooms and their data are kept, but Free plan limits apply once the paid access period ends.

If you believe a charge is unauthorized, contact us before asking your bank or card provider to reverse it. A payment dispute (chargeback) may suspend paid access while it is reviewed.

Consumer Rights

Nothing in these terms limits any right you have under mandatory consumer law. If you are a consumer in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, or another jurisdiction with a statutory right of withdrawal, you can contact support@presentationtimer.org within 14 days of the charge to exercise it.

Because paid access starts immediately after a successful payment, you ask us to begin providing the service right away. If you exercise a statutory right of withdrawal after paid features have been used, we may retain or charge a proportionate amount for the access already provided, where the law allows.

Marketing Communications

We send marketing email only where we have a lawful basis to do so. Every marketing email includes a clear unsubscribe link and our valid physical postal address. You can unsubscribe at any time using the link in the email, and we will honor the request within the time required by applicable law. We maintain a suppression list so that an address that has unsubscribed is not sent marketing email again. Transactional messages about your account, payments, security, or the service are not marketing email and may still be sent as needed to provide the service.

Service Availability

We may change, suspend, or discontinue any part of PresentationTimer at any time. We do not guarantee uninterrupted availability, permanent room retention, or error-free operation. If a paid feature you rely on is discontinued during a paid period, your refund rights are described in the Refund Policy.

Temporary Rooms

The current service is designed around temporary free timer rooms. Room data may expire, be removed, or become unavailable after inactivity or operational resets.

Intellectual Property

PresentationTimer, including its site content, branding, and software, is protected by applicable intellectual property laws. These terms do not transfer ownership rights to you.

Copyright and DMCA

We respect the intellectual property rights of others. If you believe content made available through PresentationTimer infringes your copyright, you can send a notice of claimed infringement to our designated agent. The agent's contact details, the information your notice must include, and our counter-notification and repeat-infringer procedures are set out in our DMCA and Copyright Policy.

Disclaimer

The service is provided on an "as is" and "as available" basis. To the maximum extent allowed by law, we disclaim warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement.

Limitation of Liability

To the maximum extent allowed by law, PresentationTimer and its operators will not be liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary, or punitive damages, or for loss of data, business, revenue, or goodwill arising from your use of the service.

Termination

We may suspend or block access to the service if we reasonably believe a user is violating these terms, creating risk, or abusing the platform. If we terminate a paid account for a violation of these terms, we do not refund paid periods except where required by law.

Changes to These Terms

We may revise these Terms of Service from time to time. Continued use of the service after a change means you accept the updated terms. The date at the top of this page shows the latest revision.
