Benthic
Draft. These are not Benthic's final terms.
This page is a placeholder so links from the app work. Parts marked TODO depend on decisions not made yet (accounts, billing) and on legal review. Nothing here is binding yet.
Terms of Use
Draft of 10 November 2026
About these terms
These terms will cover your use of the Benthic app and this website. TODO who you are agreeing with (legal name and address), and when the terms apply.
Using Benthic
Benthic is a focus timer: you start a focus session and sink through the ocean, and the species you meet are added to your collection.
TODO age requirements, acceptable use, and what happens if the rules are broken.
Accounts
TODO(accounts) whether an account is needed, what you are responsible for, and how to delete an account (the app has a Delete Account flow).
Benthic Plus
TODO(billing) Plus is the paid tier, bought through the App Store or Google Play. Plans, prices, renewal, cancellation, refunds and Restore Purchases go here, following each store's rules.
TODO(billing) what happens to Plus features when a subscription ends.
Coins, the tank and in-app items
TODO coins earned by focusing and what can be done with them. Whether they have any money value (lead assumption: none).
Content and ownership
TODO ownership of the app, its art and species content, the open-source licences listed in the app's About page, and how species facts are sourced.
Disclaimers and liability
TODO needs legal review. Not drafted.
