Terms of Service
Effective August 1, 2026. These terms cover the Electric Nipple Clamps mobile app and this website.
This is the agreement between you and us. We have tried to write it in plain English, because terms nobody can read protect nobody. If something here is unclear, email us and ask — the address is at the bottom.
The short version
- You must be 18 or older to use Electric Nipple Clamps.
- It is an accountability tool, not a blocker, not treatment, and not financial advice. It does not stop you from doing anything.
- It monitors your own device only. Using it to watch someone else is prohibited.
- Your subscription is billed by Apple or Google, not by us, and you cancel it through them.
- We never charge you a penalty, take a stake, or move your money. Ever.
- Either you or your accountability partner can end that arrangement at any time.
Who you are agreeing with
Electric Nipple Clamps is operated by ENC Technologies LLC, a Texas limited liability company (“ENC,” “we,” “us”). By downloading, subscribing to, or using the app or this website, you agree to these terms. If you do not agree, do not use the service.
You must be 18 or older
The service is for adults. You must be at least 18 to create an account, subscribe, or be designated as someone’s accountability partner. We do not knowingly permit anyone under 18 to use the service, and we will terminate accounts we learn belong to minors.
What the service is — and what it is not
Electric Nipple Clamps counts, on your own device, how often and how long the apps you choose to watch come to the foreground. It reports category-level counts to an accountability partner you designate. That is the whole mechanic.
What it is not, stated plainly so there is no confusion:
- It is not a blocker. It does not prevent you from opening any app, placing any bet, or making any trade. It is a witness, not a wall. You can delete it at any time.
- It is not treatment and we are not clinicians. Nothing in the app is medical advice, psychological treatment, or a substitute for professional care. If you are in crisis, please use the resources at the bottom of this page.
- It is not financial or investment advice. We describe categories of activity. We do not advise you on trades, bets, positions, or markets, and nothing in the app or on this site should be read as a recommendation to buy, sell, or hold anything.
- It is not a guarantee of any outcome. Accountability helps many people. It does not work for everyone, and we do not promise it will work for you.
Self-monitoring only
The app is authorized to monitor the device it is installed on, by the person using it. You may not install or configure it to surveil another person, whether or not you own the device, and you may not use it to monitor an employee, a partner, or a child. If you want a third party to see your activity, the supported way is to designate them as your accountability partner, which requires their explicit acceptance.
Your Clamp of Record
You may designate up to three accountability partners — one primary “Clamp of Record” plus up to two optional backups. For each one:
- You give a separate, signed authorization to share with that specific person.
- They must independently accept the role and attest that they are 18 or older. Until they accept, nothing is sent to them.
- Either of you can end the arrangement at any time. You can revoke from the app; they can unsubscribe from any email we send them.
- What they receive is limited to gambling and speculation category counts and coarse session-length buckets — never an app name, a website, your screen contents, or anything you typed.
You are responsible for entering the right contact details and for choosing someone appropriate. Do not designate someone who has not agreed to hear from you about this. What exactly is collected and shared is described in our Privacy Policy, which forms part of these terms.
Permissions the app needs
To count anything, the app needs a system permission you grant yourself: Screen Time / Family Controls on iOS, or Usage Access on Android. You can revoke that permission at any time in your device settings. If you do, the app stops counting — and because a device that has gone silent is indistinguishable from a device that stopped reporting, your partner may be told that monitoring has stopped. That is by design.
Subscriptions, free trials, and billing
Electric Nipple Clamps is sold as an auto-renewing subscription through the Apple App Store or Google Play. Apple or Google is the merchant of record. They take your payment; we never see or store your card details.
- Price. The current price and billing period are shown in the store before you confirm. That listing is authoritative.
- Free trial. If you start a free trial, it converts to a paid subscription automatically at the end of the trial unless you cancel at least 24 hours before it ends.
- Auto-renewal. Subscriptions renew automatically for the same period at the then-current price until you cancel. Your account is charged within 24 hours before each renewal.
- Cancelling. You cancel through your Apple or Google account settings, not through us — we cannot cancel it for you. Cancelling stops future renewals; you keep access through the end of the period you already paid for.
- Refunds. Refunds are handled by Apple or Google under their policies. We do not process payments, so we cannot issue a refund directly, but tell us if something went wrong and we will help you get to the right place.
We never charge you a penalty
Some accountability products take a stake, hold your money, or bill you when you slip. We do not, and this is a commitment, not a current-version caveat. We take a subscription fee for the service and nothing else. We will never charge you for a detected event, never hold funds, never route money to a third party, and never make your money contingent on your behavior.
Acceptable use
You agree not to:
- Use the service to monitor anyone other than yourself.
- Designate an accountability partner using contact details you are not entitled to use, or to harass, spam, or mislead someone.
- Reverse engineer, decompile, or attempt to extract source code, except where that restriction is unenforceable by law.
- Interfere with the service, probe or attack our infrastructure, or attempt to access another user’s data.
- Use the service unlawfully, or resell or redistribute it.
If you find a security problem, please tell us rather than exploit it. We will not pursue you for good-faith research reported promptly and privately.
Your data
What we collect, what we never collect, what your partner can see, and how you delete it are all covered in the Privacy Policy. In short: counting happens on your device, our servers receive only category-level counts and a salted token, and you can request deletion at any time — we complete it promptly and no later than 30 days after a verified request.
Our stuff stays ours
The app, this website, the name, the branding, and the content we publish belong to ENC Technologies LLC. Your subscription buys you a personal, non-transferable right to use the app while it is active. Company and product names elsewhere on this site belong to their respective owners and are used to describe those products factually; we are not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by any of them.
Availability and changes
We are a small company shipping a live product. We may add, change, or remove features, and the service may be unavailable at times for maintenance or reasons outside our control — including changes to Apple’s or Google’s platform rules, which we do not control. We will not quietly remove something you are paying for; for material reductions we will tell you first.
Ending it
You can stop at any time by cancelling in the store and deleting the app. We may suspend or terminate an account that breaks these terms, that we are required to terminate by law or platform policy, or that is being used to monitor or harass another person. If we terminate you without cause, you can ask Apple or Google for a prorated refund of the unused period.
Disclaimers
The service is provided “as is” and “as available.” To the fullest extent permitted by law, we disclaim all warranties, express or implied, including merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement. We do not warrant that the service will be uninterrupted, error-free, that every event will be detected, or that any email will arrive. Detection depends on your device, your operating system, and permissions you control.
Limitation of liability
To the fullest extent permitted by law, ENC Technologies LLC will not be liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or for lost profits, gambling or trading losses, or lost data, arising out of your use of the service. Our total liability for any claim relating to the service is limited to the amount you paid us for it in the twelve months before the claim.
Nothing in these terms limits liability that cannot be limited by law, and some jurisdictions do not allow certain exclusions — in which case those exclusions do not apply to you.
Governing law
These terms are governed by the laws of the State of Texas, without regard to its conflict-of-laws rules. You and we agree to bring any dispute in the state or federal courts located in Harris County, Texas. If you are a consumer in a jurisdiction that guarantees you the protection of local law or a local forum, this clause does not take that away from you.
The rest
If any part of these terms is found unenforceable, the rest stays in force. Our not enforcing something right away does not waive it. You may not transfer your rights under these terms; we may transfer ours if the business is sold, and we will tell you if that happens. These terms and the Privacy Policy are the whole agreement between us about the service.
Changes to these terms
If we change these terms we will update the effective date above and, for material changes, surface the change in the app or on this page before it takes effect. If you keep using the service after a change takes effect, that is your acceptance of it.
If things are worse than an app can fix
Electric Nipple Clamps is an accountability tool, not a treatment provider. If what you are facing is bigger than that, these are free, confidential, and independent of us:
- Call or text 1-800-MY-RESET — the U.S. National Problem Gambling Helpline. Free, confidential, 24/7.
- National Council on Problem Gambling — ncpgambling.org
