Terms & Conditions

CoopScoop

Effective Date: October 2, 2026 · Last Updated: October 2, 2026

Agreement to Terms

By downloading, installing, or using CoopScoop ("the App"), you agree to be bound by these Terms and Conditions. If you do not agree to these terms, do not use the App.

CoopScoop is developed and distributed by Nectar Mobile Development ("we," "us," or "our"). These terms govern your use of the App and the optional household sync service it connects to (together, "the Service").

Purchase and Lifetime License

CoopScoop is a one-time purchase. There is no subscription, no in-app purchase, and no recurring fee. Your purchase gives you a license to use the App, including its online features, for the lifetime of the application: for as long as Nectar Mobile Development continues to support and distribute CoopScoop.

"Lifetime" refers to the supported life of the App, not to the life of the purchaser or of any particular device. Purchases are made through Google Play, and refunds are handled under Google Play's refund policies and any rights you have under applicable law.

Nectar Mobile Development is an independent, single-developer operation. We may end support for, stop distributing, or decommission the App at any time, at our sole discretion, for any reason — including that continuing it is no longer commercially viable. The section below describes exactly what happens in that case.

Online Services and How Long They Last

Most of CoopScoop works entirely on your phone. The optional household features (sharing your flock with other members of your household, syncing records and photos between phones, and household notifications) depend on online services that we operate, together with services from providers such as Google Firebase Cloud Messaging and Amazon Web Services.

We will provide these online services for as long as we continue to support the App. If we decide to discontinue CoopScoop:

  • We will post a notice on this website at least 90 days before the online services end. Decommission notices are posted on this website (nectarmobile.dev), not inside the App. Check this website for the App's current status.
  • After that date, household sharing, sync, photo sync, and household notifications will stop working, and the data held by our sync service will be deleted.
  • The App will keep working on your phone. The records stored on your phone remain yours, and you can keep using the features that do not depend on our servers.
  • Before the services end, you can export your records to CSV or a backup file from within the App.

Discontinuing the online services at the end of the App's supported life does not, by itself, entitle you to a refund, except where required by law or by Google Play's policies.

The online services may also be briefly unavailable for maintenance or because of problems outside our control. The App is designed to keep working offline and to catch up when the service returns.

License to Use

We grant you a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to use CoopScoop on Android devices you own or control, for its intended purpose: keeping records for a backyard flock and sharing them with your household.

You may:

  • Install and use the App on devices you own or control, as Google Play permits
  • Create a household or join one with a code from its admin
  • Export your own records at any time

You may not:

  • Modify, reverse engineer, decompile, or disassemble the App
  • Remove or alter any proprietary notices from the App
  • Use the App for any illegal purposes
  • Distribute or sell the App to others
  • Interfere with, overload, or attempt to gain unauthorized access to the Service or to another household's data

Households

The person who creates a household is its admin. Admins can invite people with the admin, member, or kid role, using a one-time join code. If you are a household admin, you are responsible for:

  • Sharing join codes only with people who should be part of your household
  • Inviting a child only if you are that child's parent or legal guardian, and choosing a first name or nickname for them
  • Removing members and devices that should no longer have access
  • Understanding that deleting the household ends access for every member immediately, and that its data is permanently erased from our service after 30 days

Everyone in a household can see the household's shared records and photos. Only share content you are comfortable sharing with your household, and only upload photos you have the right to use.

Not Veterinary, Food-Safety, or Financial Advice

CoopScoop is a record-keeping tool. Health records, medication reminders, and egg withdrawal dates are based on the information you enter. They are not veterinary advice, and the App cannot know whether a medicine's withdrawal period is correct for your birds. Always follow your veterinarian's instructions and the medicine label, and check local regulations before eating, selling, or giving away eggs or birds. Cost, income, and feed estimates are for your own reference only.

Reminders

Chore, door, medication, and hatching reminders depend on your phone's settings, battery management, and notification permissions. We cannot guarantee that every reminder will be delivered on time. Do not rely on the App as the only safeguard for your birds' welfare.

AS-IS Warranty Disclaimer

COOPSCOOP IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE" WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED.

We do not warrant that:

  • The App or the Service will be error-free or uninterrupted
  • Defects will be corrected
  • The App will meet your specific requirements
  • Reminders, sync, or notifications will always be delivered
  • The App is compatible with all devices or Android versions

We make no guarantees beyond the functionality described in the App's listing on the Google Play Store.

Your Data and Backups

You are responsible for keeping backups of records that matter to you. CoopScoop provides export and backup features to make this easy. We are not responsible for data lost through device failure, uninstalling the App, deleting a household, or the end of the online services described above.

Limitation of Liability

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, NECTAR MOBILE DEVELOPMENT SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR ANY LOSS OF PROFITS OR REVENUES, WHETHER INCURRED DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY, OR ANY LOSS OF DATA, USE, GOODWILL, OR OTHER INTANGIBLE LOSSES RESULTING FROM:

  • Your use or inability to use the App or the Service
  • Missed or late reminders, or sync and notification delays
  • Decisions made using health, withdrawal, or cost information recorded in the App
  • The end of the online services at the end of the App's supported life
  • Any other matter relating to the App

Where liability cannot be excluded, our total liability is limited to the amount you paid for the App.

Privacy

How we handle your information is described in our Privacy Policy.

Updates and Modifications

We may update the App from time to time to add features, fix bugs, or improve performance. Updates are provided through the Google Play Store. Ending the App's online services is governed by the "Online Services and How Long They Last" section above.

Termination

You may stop using the App at any time by leaving your household and uninstalling it from your device. Your license terminates automatically if you violate these Terms, and we may suspend access to the Service for any household or device we reasonably believe is being used in violation of these Terms.

Intellectual Property

CoopScoop and all related trademarks, logos, and branding are the property of Nectar Mobile Development. These Terms do not grant you any rights to our intellectual property except for the limited license to use the App as described above. You keep ownership of the records and photos you create.

Governing Law

These Terms shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the jurisdiction in which Nectar Mobile Development operates, without regard to its conflict of law provisions.

Severability

If any provision of these Terms is found to be unenforceable or invalid, that provision shall be limited or eliminated to the minimum extent necessary, and the remaining provisions shall remain in full force and effect.

Entire Agreement

These Terms, together with our Privacy Policy, constitute the entire agreement between you and Nectar Mobile Development regarding the use of CoopScoop.

Changes to These Terms

We may modify these Terms from time to time. If we make changes, we will update the "Last Updated" date above and post the new Terms on this page. Your continued use of the App after changes are posted constitutes acceptance of the modified Terms.
