Terms of Service

Plain-language Terms of Service for the ShotDial app and website.

What ShotDial is

ShotDial logs your espresso shots and returns suggestions for how to adjust grind, dose, yield, time and temperature. Suggestions are informational only — they are starting points for your next pull, not guarantees of a particular result.

Your account

You're responsible for keeping your sign-in credentials secure and for activity on your account. You must be old enough to agree to these terms in your jurisdiction (typically 13+, or 16+ in parts of the EU).

Acceptable use

• Don't try to break, overload, scrape or reverse-engineer the service.
• Don't use the service to harm others or violate the law.
• Don't submit content you don't have the right to submit.

Your content

Your brew log and notes belong to you. You grant us only the permission needed to store, process and display that content back to you, and to send relevant non-personal portions to AI and search providers as described in the Privacy Policy.

No warranty

ShotDial is provided "as is" and "as available", without warranty of any kind. We don't guarantee that diagnoses will be accurate, that the service will be uninterrupted, or that data will never be lost.

Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, ShotDial and its operator are not liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential or punitive damages, or for lost profits or data, arising from your use of the service. Where local law does not allow these limitations, the operator's total liability for any claim is limited to the amount you paid for the service in the twelve months preceding the claim, or one hundred US dollars (US$100), whichever is greater.

Changes

We may update these terms. Material changes will be reflected by a new "Last updated" date on this page and, where appropriate, by a notice in the app. Continuing to use ShotDial after a change takes effect means you accept the updated terms.

Governing law & identity

These terms are governed by the laws of the State of California, United States, without regard to its conflict of laws principles. Any dispute arising out of or relating to these terms or the service will be brought exclusively in the state or federal courts located in California, and you and we consent to personal jurisdiction in those courts. ShotDial is operated by Rohit Gandhi, an individual based in California.
