The Sthira Space
Terms and Conditions
These terms govern your use of Cadence and any other digital products offered by The Sthira Space. Please read them — they are written to be clear, not to be avoided.
1. Who We Are
The Sthira Space is an independently operated software business based in Bengaluru, Karnataka, India. We build digital tools designed around calm, consistency, and privacy. Cadence is our first product. For any questions about these terms, write to us at hello@sthiraspace.com.
2. Pricing
We offer two paid plans: Monthly and Annual. Current pricing for both plans is maintained at sthiraspace.com/pricing. Prices are not stated in this document — the pricing page is the single source of truth and reflects any updates in real time.
3. Accounts
You must be at least 13 years old to create an account. By creating an account, you confirm that you meet this requirement and that the information you provide during registration is accurate.
You are responsible for keeping your login credentials secure. We are not liable for any loss or damage arising from unauthorised access to your account caused by your failure to keep those credentials confidential. If you suspect unauthorised access, contact us immediately at hello@sthiraspace.com.
One account per person. You may not create or use an account on behalf of another person, or allow others to use your account.
4. Billing and Renewal
Paid subscriptions renew automatically at the end of each billing period — monthly or annually, depending on the plan you selected. You will be charged at renewal using the payment method on file.
You can cancel at any time from your account settings. Cancellation stops future charges. It does not affect access during the period you have already paid for — that remains available until the period ends.
If a payment fails at renewal, we will notify you and allow a brief grace period before access is restricted. What constitutes a refundable event, and how refunds are calculated, is governed by our Refund and Cancellation Policy at sthiraspace.com/legal/refunds.
5. Acceptable Use
You may use Cadence and any other Sthira Space products for your personal or professional productivity. You may not:
- Attempt to access, probe, or disrupt our systems or infrastructure in any unauthorised way.
- Use automated scripts or bots to interact with the product in ways not intended by its design.
- Impersonate another person or misrepresent your identity or affiliation.
- Use the product for any purpose that violates applicable law.
We reserve the right to suspend or terminate accounts that violate these terms, without prior notice in cases where the violation is serious.
6. Your Data
Your data belongs to you. We do not sell it, and we do not share it with third parties outside of the service providers listed in our Privacy Policy. What we collect, why we collect it, and what rights you have over it are explained in full at sthiraspace.com/legal/privacy.
When you delete your account, your personal data is removed from our systems within 30 days. Anonymised, aggregated data — which cannot be linked back to you — may be retained for product improvement purposes.
7. Service Availability
We aim to keep our products available and reliable, but we do not guarantee uninterrupted access. Downtime can occur due to maintenance, infrastructure issues, or circumstances outside our control.
We will communicate planned maintenance in advance when possible. We do not offer service level agreements or uptime guarantees at this stage.
8. Intellectual Property
All content, design, code, and product features within The Sthira Space's products are our intellectual property. These terms do not grant you any ownership or licence beyond what is necessary to use the product for its intended purpose.
You retain full ownership of any content you create or store within the product — your session data, categories, notes, and preferences remain yours.
9. Limitation of Liability
To the extent permitted by law, our liability to you for any claim arising from your use of our products is limited to the total amount you paid us during the specific subscription period in which the issue arose.
We are not liable for indirect, incidental, or consequential damages — including loss of data, loss of revenue, or loss of business — even if we were advised that such damages were possible.
Nothing in these terms limits our liability for fraud, death or personal injury caused by negligence, or any other liability that cannot be excluded by law.
10. Dispute Resolution and Arbitration
If you have a dispute with us, please contact us first at hello@sthiraspace.com. We commit to engaging in good-faith negotiation for up to 30 days to attempt a resolution before either party pursues any formal process.
If a dispute remains unresolved after that 30-day period, it will be referred to and finally resolved by binding arbitration under the Arbitration and Conciliation Act, 1996 (India). The arbitration will be conducted by a sole arbitrator agreed upon by both parties. If no agreement on an arbitrator is reached within 15 days of either party requesting arbitration, the arbitrator will be appointed in accordance with the Act. The seat and venue of arbitration will be Bengaluru, Karnataka, India. The language of proceedings will be English. The arbitrator's award will be final and binding on both parties.
Nothing in this clause prevents either party from seeking urgent injunctive relief from a court of competent jurisdiction to prevent irreparable harm pending the outcome of arbitration.
11. Governing Law and Jurisdiction
These terms are governed by the laws of India. Any matter not resolved through arbitration — or any proceeding to enforce an arbitration award — will be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts in Bengaluru, Karnataka, India.
12. Changes to These Terms
We may update these terms from time to time. If the changes are material — meaning they reduce your rights, alter billing terms, or add new obligations — we will notify you by email at least 14 days before they take effect. Minor corrections and clarifications may be made without prior notice.
Continuing to use our products after the effective date of any changes constitutes acceptance of the revised terms. The "Last updated" date at the top of this page reflects when changes were most recently made.
