By using the Services you agree to be bound by these Terms. If you are using the Services on behalf of an organization, you are agreeing to these Terms for that organization and promising that you have the authority to bind that organization to these terms.

Description of Service

We provide online software to help students better manage their time and workload in college. The app allows students to set up all of their activities on a calendar that calculates the time used for each and time left for study. The app then allows students to enter information from their class syllabi and estimate the time it takes to perform each task. The app compares estimated time with time available and shows the student if they have sufficient time to get things done. The app is a software service that is accessed using any Internet browser. You are responsible for obtaining access to the Internet and the equipment necessary to use the Service.

Modification of Terms of Service

We may modify the Terms upon notice to you at any time. You will be provided notice of any such modification by electronic mail. You may terminate your use of the Service if the Terms are modified in a manner that substantially affects your rights in connection with use of the Service. Your continued use of the Service after notice of any change to the Terms will be deemed to be your agreement to the amended Terms.
