Terms & Conditions

The friendly version. No dense legalese — just the deal, in plain words.

The short version

•BUZZIN is a small social app for sharing what you're drinking. Be kind, have fun.
•You need to be 13 or older to have an account.
•You own the photos and words you post. By posting, you let us show them to other BUZZIN users.
•We do not sell your personal information, and we are not planning to. We may eventually share anonymous group trends — the whole story is in "How BUZZIN stays free" below.

•Keep your password to yourself — you're responsible for what happens on your account.
•Pick a username that isn't impersonating someone else.
•You can delete your posts at any time, and you can stop using BUZZIN whenever you like.

•BUZZIN is for fun — nothing here is medical advice.
•We don't track how much caffeine you've actually had, and nothing in the app is a measurement of it.
•Know your own limits, and talk to a doctor about what's right for you.

•We store your profile, posts, comments, and friendships so the app works.
•Posts are friends-only unless you say otherwise. Every time you post you choose: friends, public on Discover, or one community you've joined.
•Your phone number is only used so friends who already know it can find you — it's never shown to other users.
•Photos don't stick around forever. Every Monday we clear out post photos from previous weeks, so your profile grid stays focused on the current one. Posts you've pinned keep theirs.
•The post itself stays after its photo goes — the drink, the day, the city label — so your streak and your all-time count stay honest.
•Delete a post yourself and it's gone for good, photo and all.

•BUZZIN is free, and we would like to keep it that way. Eventually we plan to earn money by sharing aggregate, anonymous caffeine trends — things like "cold brew was up 12% in Seattle last week."
•We are not doing this yet. If and when we start, we'll tell you in the app first, and this page will be updated to say so.
•We will never sell or share your account, your photos, your posts, your comments, your name, your email, your phone number, or your exact coordinates. That isn't what this is.
•Group numbers only get released when the group is large enough that no single person can be picked out of it. Inside the app today that means at least 5 people and 20 drinks in a week before a community stat appears at all — anything we ever share would meet that bar or a higher one.
•Delete a post or your account and it stops counting toward anything worked out from then on. Numbers already published can't be un-published.

•Delete any of your own posts from the post's delete button — it goes immediately, photo included.
•Want a copy of everything we hold about you, or want all of it deleted? Email buzzincaffeine@gmail.com and we'll take care of it.
•Delete your whole account from your profile page. That removes your posts, photos, comments, reactions and friendships along with it, straight away.

•When you open Daily Buzz, your precise coordinates go to BUZZIN's own server to look up nearby cafés and stores. They are not sent to anyone else for that.
•The map of cafés and stores itself comes from OpenStreetMap, refreshed by our server one area at a time in the background. Those refreshes ask about a whole neighbourhood, never about you, and carry nothing that identifies you.
•Those same coordinates are sent to BigDataCloud to turn them into a city label (like "Seattle, WA") shown on your post — again, used for that one lookup, not stored by us beyond it.
•Neither service gets your name, email, or anything else that identifies you — just the coordinates for a single request.

•BUZZIN is provided as-is; we do our best, but we can't promise it will never break.
•We may update these terms — if we do something meaningful, we'll let you know in the app.
•If any of this worries you, reach out at buzzincaffeine@gmail.com before using the app.
