Terms of Service

1. About ChronoMatch

ChronoMatch (“we”, “our”, “us”) operates the website chronomatch.netand the ChronoMatch mobile application (collectively, the “Service”). By accessing or using the Service you agree to these Terms of Service. If you do not agree, do not use the Service.

Contact: support@chronomatch.net

2. Eligibility

You must be at least 16 years old to use the Service. By creating an account you confirm that the information you provide is accurate and that you have the legal capacity to enter into this agreement.

3. Free and Premium features

ChronoMatch offers both free and paid (“Premium”) features. Free features are available to all registered users. Premium features — including unlimited AI-assisted search, advanced watch matching, and price alerts — require an active paid subscription.

We reserve the right to change which features are free or Premium at any time, with reasonable notice to existing subscribers.

4. Subscriptions and billing

• Subscriptions are billed in advance on a monthly ($1.99/month) or annual ($19.99/year) basis.
• Payment is processed by Stripe. By subscribing you authorise Stripe to charge your payment method on a recurring basis until you cancel.
• Prices are in US dollars and may be subject to applicable taxes depending on your location.
• We may change subscription prices with at least 30 days’ notice. Continued use of the Service after a price change constitutes acceptance of the new price.

5. Cancellation

You may cancel your subscription at any time from your account settings. Cancellation takes effect at the end of the current billing period — you retain access to Premium features until that date. We do not issue prorated refunds for partial billing periods.

6. Refunds

All sales are final. We do not offer refunds except where required by applicable law (for example, the EU Consumer Rights Directive provides a 14-day cooling-off period for digital services where the service has not yet been used). To request a refund under applicable law, contact us at support@chronomatch.net.

7. Acceptable use

You agree not to:

• Use the Service for any unlawful purpose or in violation of any applicable regulations.
• Scrape, crawl, or systematically extract data from the Service without our written permission.
• Attempt to reverse-engineer, decompile, or circumvent any security or access controls.
• Use automated tools to make excessive requests that place undue load on our infrastructure.
• Impersonate any person or entity, or misrepresent your affiliation with any person or entity.
• Submit false or misleading watch data, reviews, or requests.

We reserve the right to suspend or terminate accounts that violate these terms without notice.

8. Intellectual property

All content on the Service — including the similarity engine, watch database, design, and copy — is owned by or licensed to ChronoMatch. You may not reproduce, distribute, or create derivative works from our content without prior written consent.

Watch images, brand names, and model names are the property of their respective manufacturers and are used for identification and informational purposes only. ChronoMatch is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by any watch brand.

9. User content

Content you add to ChronoMatch — such as vault entries, notes, and watch requests — remains yours. By submitting content you grant us a non-exclusive, royalty-free licence to store and display it in connection with providing the Service. We do not sell your personal content to third parties.

10. Disclaimer of warranties

The Service is provided “as is” and “as available” without warranties of any kind, express or implied. Watch price data, similarity scores, and market valuations are for informational purposes only and should not be relied upon for financial or purchasing decisions. See our Disclaimer for full details.

11. Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, ChronoMatch shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages arising out of or related to your use of the Service, even if we have been advised of the possibility of such damages. Our total liability to you for any claim shall not exceed the amount you paid us in the 12 months preceding the claim.

12. Governing law

These Terms are governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of England and Wales. Any disputes shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of England and Wales, except where mandatory consumer protection laws in your country of residence apply.

13. Changes to these Terms

We may update these Terms from time to time. When we do, we will update the “Last updated” date above and, for material changes, notify you by email or in-app notice. Continued use of the Service after changes take effect constitutes acceptance of the updated Terms.
