Terms of use
Last updated: 3 November 2026
These terms are the agreement between you and Archer Hayles ("we", "us"), who runs Lodestar. By creating an account or using Lodestar, you agree to them. Please also read our privacy policy.
Using Lodestar
- Lodestar is currently free. If we ever add paid features, we'll explain the price clearly before you pay anything.
- You need to be at least 13. If you're under 18, you need a parent's or guardian's permission.
- Keep your password private. You're responsible for what happens in your account.
Your content
Everything you write in Lodestar stays yours. You let us store it and show it back to you only so the app can work. Please export a backup now and then (Settings → Backup), so you always have your own copy.
Fair use
Please don't:
- try to get into other people's accounts or data, or test Lodestar's security without our permission;
- overload, disrupt or reverse-engineer the service;
- use Lodestar for anything illegal.
Reminders and availability
We work hard to keep Lodestar running and reminders on time, but we can't promise it will always be available, error-free, or that every reminder arrives. Notifications depend on your device, its settings and other companies' services. Please don't rely on Lodestar alone for anything important or time-critical, such as medication or safety.
Closing an account
You can stop using Lodestar at any time and ask us to delete your account (see the privacy policy). We may suspend or close an account that breaks these terms, and we'll tell you why where we can. We may also change or stop the service; if we shut Lodestar down, we'll give reasonable notice so you can export your data.
Our responsibility
Lodestar is provided "as is". To the extent the law allows, we aren't responsible for indirect losses, such as missed appointments, or for loss of data you didn't back up. Nothing in these terms takes away rights you have under the Australian Consumer Law that can't be excluded.
Changes to these terms
We may update these terms. We'll change the date at the top, and tell you in the app about important changes before they take effect. If you keep using Lodestar after that, the new terms apply.
Law and contact
These terms are governed by the laws of New South Wales, Australia. Questions? Email archer.hayles01@outlook.com.
