Terms of Service

• You keep ownership of your bakery recipes and cost data. We need a license only to host and run the Service for you.
• Cancel anytime. New paid subscribers get a 60-day money-back guarantee on their first paid plan. We may also offer pro-rata refunds on annual plans case by case, not as a guaranteed right.
• OvenBooks is a costing tool, not tax, legal, or accounting advice.
• We may change, sell, or transfer the business (including to our own affiliates or another entity we control or that acquires us) without needing your consent.
• Details below, including liability limits and Delaware law. Privacy practices are in our Privacy Policy.

OvenBooks is a costing and COGS product for cottage, home, and small bakeries, provided by Salaryman Inc.

If you use the Service on behalf of a business or other entity, you represent that you have authority to bind that entity, and “you” includes that entity.

If you do not agree to these Terms, do not use the Service. We may update these Terms as described in Changes. Continued use after changes become effective means you accept the updated Terms.

You must be at least 18 years old (or the age of majority where you live, if higher) to create an account or buy a subscription. Free public tools may be used without an account, subject to these Terms and applicable law.

OvenBooks helps you model recipe costs, track purchases and batches, estimate true cost and suggested prices, and export cost data for your own bookkeeping. Features depend on plan, trial status, and what we have shipped.

We also offer marketing-site free tools (for example, calculators and cottage-food summaries) that may run without a login. Those tools are provided as-is for convenience; numbers stay in your browser unless you choose to share them (such as joining a waitlist or copying a link).

We may add, change, or remove features, free tools, or plan entitlements. We will try not to yank the rug in a surprise way on paid features you rely on, but we do not promise any particular feature forever.

You are responsible for your account credentials and for activity under your account. Keep your password confidential. Notify us promptly at support@ovenbooks.com if you suspect unauthorized access.

You may sign in with email and password or with Google Sign-In when we offer it. You must provide accurate registration information and keep it reasonably up to date.

One paid Cottage-style account is intended for a single bakery operator (or the seats your plan allows if multi-user features exist). Do not share login credentials to bypass seating or billing limits.

Paid access (including trials that convert to paid) is billed through Stripe (or another payment processor we designate). Card and checkout data are handled by that processor under their terms; we do not store full card numbers on OvenBooks servers.

Plan names, prices, trial length, and entitlements are shown at checkout or on the site (for example, a Cottage subscription and a time-limited trial). Taxes, currency, and invoicing may be handled by Stripe as merchant of record where applicable.

Unless we say otherwise in writing, subscriptions renew automatically at the then-current price until you cancel. Price changes for renewals will be disclosed as required by law and by our processor’s practices.

Failed payments may lead to suspension or termination of paid access after a grace period we choose. We may offer founding or promotional pricing with its own duration and rules.

Cancel anytime. You may cancel a subscription through the billing portal or by contacting support@ovenbooks.com. After cancellation, you generally keep access through the end of the period you already paid for, unless a refund applies below.

60-day money-back guarantee (first paid subscription). If you are a new customer and this is your first paid OvenBooks subscription (monthly or annual), you may request a full refund within 60 days of that first successful paid charge. Contact us (or use any refund path we provide via Stripe). We may ask you to confirm the account email and cancel the subscription as part of the refund.

The 60-day guarantee applies only to that first paid subscription purchase, not to every later renewal or upgrade as a separate 60-day clock, unless we say otherwise in a specific offer.

Annual plans: pro-rata refunds (discretionary). If you cancel an annual plan after the 60-day money-back window (or if the 60-day guarantee does not apply), you may request a pro-rata refund for unused full months remaining on the annual term. We aim to treat these requests fairly and often issue a reasonable pro-rata amount when practical, but a pro-rata refund is not guaranteed. Approval is case by case and may depend on payment-processor capabilities, taxes, discounts or promos, chargebacks, account history, and operational constraints as we scale. Partial months may be treated as used. Monthly plans are not pro-rated after the 60-day first-purchase window unless required by law or we agree otherwise in writing.

Refunds are issued through Stripe (or the original payment method) and may take time to appear on your statement. Chargebacks filed without first contacting us may result in account suspension while we investigate. Nothing in this section limits non-waivable consumer rights in your jurisdiction.

You own your bakery data. Recipes, ingredients, purchases, batches, costs, exports, and other business content you submit (“Your Content”) remain yours (or your licensors’).

You grant Salaryman Inc. a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free license to host, store, back up, process, transmit, display, and otherwise use Your Content solely as needed to provide, maintain, secure, and support the Service for you (and for related operations such as troubleshooting and legal compliance). We do not claim ownership of your recipes, and we do not sell your recipes or cost sheets to other bakeries.

You represent that you have the rights to Your Content and that our use as described above will not infringe others’ rights. You are responsible for keeping copies of data that matters to you; export tools (when available) help, but the Service is not a substitute for your own backups of critical records.

OvenBooks, including software, design, branding, documentation, and site content we provide (excluding Your Content), is owned by Salaryman Inc. or its licensors. These Terms do not transfer our IP to you. We grant you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable right to use the Service as allowed by your plan and these Terms.

You may not copy, reverse engineer (except where law allows), resell, or white-label the Service, or remove proprietary notices, without our prior written consent.

You agree not to:

• Use the Service for anything illegal or to violate others’ rights
• Probe, scan, or attack our systems, or bypass rate limits or security
• Interfere with or disrupt the Service or other users’ access
• Upload malware or content that is unlawful, harmful, or infringing
• Scrape the Service in a way that burdens our infrastructure or violates these Terms (ordinary browser use and your own exports are fine)
• Misrepresent your identity or affiliation, or use the Service to send spam
• Resell access to OvenBooks as a competing hosted service without our written permission

We may suspend or terminate accounts that violate these rules or that create risk for us or other users.

OvenBooks provides tools and estimates to help you understand costs and prepare exports for your own records or your accountant. We do not provide tax, legal, accounting, or financial advice. COGS exports and price suggestions are not a guarantee of tax treatment, regulatory compliance, or business outcomes. Cottage food law summaries and similar guides (if offered) are for general convenience only and may be incomplete or out of date. You are responsible for decisions you make with your numbers and for compliance with laws that apply to your bakery.

The Service may depend on third parties such as hosting providers, email (for example, Resend), analytics (for example, PostHog), Google Sign-In, and Stripe for billing. Those services have their own terms and privacy policies. We are not responsible for third-party services we do not control, except as required by law.

Personal data practices are described in our Privacy Policy.

THE SERVICE IS PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE.” TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, WE DISCLAIM ALL WARRANTIES, WHETHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED, OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT. WE DO NOT WARRANT THAT THE SERVICE WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, ERROR-FREE, OR FREE OF HARMFUL COMPONENTS, OR THAT COST CALCULATIONS OR EXPORTS WILL MEET YOUR TAX OR BUSINESS REQUIREMENTS.

Some jurisdictions do not allow certain disclaimers; in those places, disclaimers apply only to the extent allowed.

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, SALARYMAN INC. AND ITS OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES, AND AGENTS WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES; LOST PROFITS, REVENUE, OR DATA; OR BUSINESS INTERRUPTION, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THE SERVICE OR THESE TERMS, WHETHER BASED ON WARRANTY, CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), OR ANY OTHER LEGAL THEORY, EVEN IF WE HAVE BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, OUR TOTAL LIABILITY FOR ANY CLAIM ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THE SERVICE OR THESE TERMS IS LIMITED TO THE GREATER OF (A) THE AMOUNTS YOU PAID US FOR THE SERVICE IN THE TWELVE (12) MONTHS BEFORE THE CLAIM AROSE, OR (B) ONE HUNDRED U.S. DOLLARS (US $100) IF YOU HAVE NOT PAID US IN THAT PERIOD.

These limits are a fundamental part of the bargain and apply even if a remedy fails of its essential purpose. They do not limit liability that cannot be limited under applicable law (for example, certain liability for fraud or willful misconduct where such exclusion is prohibited).

You will defend and indemnify Salaryman Inc. and its officers, directors, employees, and agents against claims, damages, losses, and reasonable expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) arising from: (a) Your Content; (b) your use of the Service in violation of these Terms or law; or (c) your bakery’s products, sales, or regulatory compliance (including food safety and tax filings). We will provide reasonable notice of a claim and allow you to control the defense, provided you do not settle in a way that admits fault by us or imposes obligations on us without our written consent.

You may stop using the Service at any time and may cancel paid plans as described above. We may suspend or terminate access if you breach these Terms, if required by law, if we discontinue the Service, or if your account creates risk or legal exposure for us.

If we discontinue OvenBooks entirely, we will try to give reasonable notice when practical and, for prepaid unused service periods, a refund approach consistent with our cancellation and refund section or applicable law.

Sections that by nature should survive (including ownership, disclaimers, liability limits, indemnity, assignment, and governing law) survive termination.

You may not assign these Terms or your rights under them without our prior written consent, except that you may transfer your account data export for your own records. Any attempted assignment in violation of this section is void.

We may assign or transfer these Terms, the Service, and our rights and obligations (in whole or in part) without your consent, including to: (a) an affiliate or another entity we control, are controlled by, or are under common control with; (b) a successor in connection with a merger, acquisition, corporate reorganization, or sale of assets or equity; or (c) any purchaser of the OvenBooks product line or related business. We may also restructure which of our legal entities operates OvenBooks.

If we assign the Service, these Terms will bind the assignee, and we (or the assignee) may notify you by email, in-product notice, or site update when practical. Your continued use after a transfer constitutes acceptance of the assignee as the contracting party. Nothing in this section limits our Privacy Policy obligations regarding personal information in a business transfer.

We may modify the Service and these Terms. For material changes to the Terms, we will post the updated Terms on this page, update the effective date, and take reasonable steps to notify account holders (for example, email or in-product notice) when practical.

If you do not agree to updated Terms, you must stop using the Service and cancel any subscription. Continued use after the effective date of changes constitutes acceptance.

We may send you service-related messages (security, billing, policy updates). Marketing or waitlist email is handled as described in the Privacy Policy; you can unsubscribe from marketing lists. You consent to electronic communications satisfying any legal communication requirements.

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Delaware, U.S.A., without regard to conflict-of-law rules that would apply another jurisdiction’s laws.

Except where prohibited by law, you and we agree that the state and federal courts located in Delaware will have exclusive jurisdiction over disputes arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Service, and you consent to personal jurisdiction there. Either party may still seek injunctive or equitable relief in any court of competent jurisdiction to protect intellectual property or confidential information.

If a court finds part of these Terms unenforceable, the rest remains in effect. Our failure to enforce a provision is not a waiver. These Terms, together with the Privacy Policy and any plan or order terms presented at checkout, are the entire agreement between you and us regarding the Service and supersede prior agreements on that subject.
