Terms of Service

1. Agreement and Operator

These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your access to and use of KINTABS ("the Service"), a Chrome browser extension that helps you organize browser tabs into workspaces, spaces, and collections. KINTABS is operated under the Originess Lab trading name ("we", "us", "our"). For full operator details, see our Legal Notice.

By installing, accessing, or using KINTABS, you agree to be bound by these Terms. If you do not agree, do not install or use the Service.

Originess Lab is the trading name used by the operator of KINTABS. The operator is a sole trader registered in the Czech Republic, European Union.

2. Definitions

• "Guest mode" means the local-only mode of KINTABS that does not require an account and stores data on your device.
• "Authenticated account" means a KINTABS account identified by your email address.
• "Cloud features" means features that store or sync data through our backend services, available on paid plans.
• "Saved content" means tab URLs, tab titles, workspace names, space names, collection names, and other information you organize within KINTABS.
• "Paid plan" means a Pro or Team Lite subscription billed through Stripe.
• "Shared workspace" means a workspace you share with other KINTABS users for collaboration.

3. Eligibility and Age Requirement

KINTABS is not intended for children under 16. Users under 16 should not create an account or provide personal information. By creating an account, you confirm that you are at least 16 years old or, if applicable, have the consent of a parent or legal guardian.

We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 16. If you believe a child under 16 has provided us with personal information, please contact us at support@kintabs.com and we will take steps to delete such information.

4. Accounts and Account Security

Guest mode does not require an account. Cloud sync, collaboration, and paid features require an authenticated account.

You are responsible for maintaining the security of your account credentials and for all activity that occurs under your account. If you believe your account has been compromised, contact us immediately at support@kintabs.com.

You agree to provide accurate information when creating an account and to keep your account information up to date.

5. KINTABS Free, Pro and Team Plans

KINTABS offers a free Guest mode and paid plans (Pro and Team Lite). Plan features, limits, and pricing are described within the extension and on our website and may change. The free Guest mode stores data locally on your device and does not require an account.

Pro and Team Lite plans include cloud sync, collaboration features, and higher tab limits. Team Lite includes seat management for multiple users. Current plan features and limits are displayed in the extension's plan selection interface.

6. Billing and Automatic Renewal

Paid plans are billed on a recurring basis (monthly or annually) through Stripe, our payment processor. Subscriptions renew automatically at the end of each billing cycle unless you cancel before the renewal date.

You authorize us to charge your payment method for recurring subscription fees until you cancel. The billing frequency and amount are determined by the plan and billing interval you select at checkout.

Prices are displayed in the extension and on our website at the time of purchase. We may change pricing for new subscriptions or renewals with reasonable advance notice where required by applicable law.

7. Stripe Payments

Payments for paid plans are processed by Stripe. KINTABS does not directly collect or store your full payment card details. Stripe handles your payment information securely. We receive limited subscription status information from Stripe to manage your plan.

For details about how Stripe handles your payment information, see the Stripe Privacy Policy.

8. Cancellation

You can cancel your paid subscription at any time through the extension's billing settings or by contacting support@kintabs.com. Cancellation stops future renewal charges. You will not be billed for the next billing cycle after cancellation takes effect.

When you cancel, your subscription remains active until the end of your current billing period. You retain access to paid features through the period you have already paid for. After the billing period ends, your account transitions to the free Guest mode.

Cancellation is not the same as account deletion. Cancelling your subscription does not delete your account or your data. See section 16 (Account Deletion) for information about permanently deleting your account.

9. Refunds and Statutory Rights

Refunds, when applicable, are processed through Stripe. For details about our refund practices, see our Refund and Cancellation Policy.

Nothing in these Terms limits any mandatory statutory rights available to you under applicable consumer law, including rights you may have under EU or Czech consumer protection legislation.

10. User Content and Saved Tabs

You retain ownership of the saved content you organize in KINTABS, including tab URLs, titles, workspace names, and collection names. We do not claim ownership of your saved content.

You are responsible for ensuring your use of KINTABS and the content you save or share complies with applicable law and third-party rights. KINTABS does not endorse, verify, or control the third-party websites whose URLs you save within the extension.

KINTABS is a tool for organizing your browser tabs. It is not the publisher of the webpages you bookmark or save, and KINTABS is not responsible for the content of those third-party websites.

11. Shared Workspaces and Collaboration

Paid plans may include the ability to share workspaces with other KINTABS users for collaboration. When you share a workspace, other invited users may access the workspace's spaces, collections, and saved tabs within that shared workspace.

You are responsible for the content you share and for ensuring you have the right to share it. Be mindful that shared workspace content is visible to other invited members.

We may restrict accounts or content where required by law or where shared content violates these Terms.

12. Acceptable Use

You agree not to:

• Use KINTABS for any unlawful purpose or in violation of these Terms
• Attempt to access, alter, or damage systems or data you are not authorized to access
• Use automated systems to abuse, overload, or disrupt the Service
• Share your account credentials with others in violation of your plan's terms
• Save, share, or organize content that infringes the intellectual property rights of others
• Use shared workspaces to distribute content that is unlawful, harmful, or violates the rights of others

13. Third-Party Websites and Services

KINTABS allows you to save URLs pointing to third-party websites. KINTABS does not control and is not responsible for the content, availability, or practices of those third-party websites. Your interaction with third-party websites is solely at your own risk.

Saving a URL in KINTABS does not constitute an endorsement of the linked website by KINTABS or Originess Lab. We do not verify the content of saved URLs.

14. Service Availability and Changes

We strive to maintain reliable service but do not guarantee uninterrupted access. The Service may be unavailable due to maintenance, updates, or factors beyond our control. Cloud features depend on third-party services (Supabase, Stripe) whose availability we do not control.

We may modify, suspend, or discontinue features of the Service at any time. If a paid feature is discontinued, we will provide reasonable notice or, where applicable, a pro-rata adjustment.

15. Data, Backup and Recovery Expectations

KINTABS may provide local backup or recovery mechanisms, but users remain responsible for maintaining copies of important information. Recovery of deleted content cannot be guaranteed in all circumstances.

We encourage you to periodically export your data using the extension's export feature. We are not responsible for loss of data resulting from device failure, browser data clearing, or extension removal.

16. Account Deletion

You can delete your KINTABS account at any time through the extension's account settings. Account deletion is permanent and irreversible.

When you delete your account:

• Your remote account data is deleted according to our backend account-deletion process
• Your owned cloud data (workspaces, spaces, collections, tabs) is removed
• Your local authenticated data partition is cleared
• Your active subscription is cancelled

Certain limited records may be retained where necessary and permitted by applicable law for billing, accounting, legal compliance, security, fraud prevention, dispute handling, or other legitimate operational requirements. This may include records held by service providers such as Stripe or PostHog in accordance with their own retention obligations.

Account deletion is not the same as logout. Logging out of KINTABS does not delete your account or data. Account deletion is also not the same as cancelling your subscription — cancellation only stops future billing, while deletion permanently removes your KINTABS account and owned cloud content.

We do not promise that data can be restored after account deletion.

Normal deletion of individual tabs, collections, or workspaces within KINTABS uses the extension's standard removal process and may involve soft-deletion (tombstone) mechanisms for sync purposes. This is separate from full account deletion.

17. Intellectual Property

KINTABS, including its logo, design, software, and associated materials, is protected by intellectual property laws. These Terms do not grant you any rights to our trademarks, service marks, or proprietary content.

Your saved content remains your property, as described in section 10.

18. Suspension and Termination

You may stop using KINTABS at any time by uninstalling the extension. You may also delete your account as described in section 16.

We may suspend or terminate your access to the Service if you violate these Terms or if your conduct creates a risk of harm to the Service or other users. Where practicable, we will provide notice before suspension or termination, except where urgent action is needed to protect the Service or comply with law.

19. Disclaimers

The Service is provided "as is" and "as available" without warranties of any kind, whether express or implied. We do not warrant that the Service will be error-free, secure, or available at all times.

We do not guarantee that saved content will always be recoverable or that backup and recovery mechanisms will function in all circumstances.

20. Limitation of Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, neither Originess Lab nor its operator shall be liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or for loss of data, loss of profits, or business interruption, arising from your use of or inability to use the Service.

This limitation does not apply to liability that cannot be excluded under applicable mandatory law, including applicable consumer protection legislation.

21. Mandatory Consumer Rights

Nothing in these Terms limits or excludes any mandatory statutory rights that cannot lawfully be excluded under the applicable consumer protection legislation in your jurisdiction. If you are a consumer in the European Union or European Economic Area, you retain all rights granted under EU and national consumer law.

22. Governing Law and Disputes

KINTABS is operated from the Czech Republic, European Union. These Terms and any disputes arising from them are subject to the laws of the Czech Republic, except where mandatory consumer law in your jurisdiction requires otherwise.

Nothing in these Terms prevents you from pursuing claims in your country of residence where mandatory consumer law provides that right.

23. Changes to the Terms

We may update these Terms from time to time. We will post changes on this page with an updated effective date. For material changes, we will provide notice through the extension or by other reasonable means where required by applicable law.

Continued use of KINTABS after changes take effect constitutes acceptance of the updated Terms.
