Got Dill? — Terms of Use

Last updated 25 September 2026

Got Dill? is a shared grocery list for a household, run by a small team. These terms say what you may do with it, what we do with your data while running it, and when we can close an account. The app asks you to agree to them the first time you sign in, and again if they change. The purchase of a subscription through the App Store is also governed by Apple's Licensed Application End User License Agreement; where the two overlap, Apple's terms govern the purchase and these terms govern the service.

Your account

• One account per person, used by that person. Do not share sign-in details or create accounts to get around limits that apply to you.
• You are responsible for what is done with your account. If you think somebody else has used it, change your password and tell us.
• Accounts are for people aged 13 and over.

Your household

A household is a shared space. Everyone in it can see, change and delete everything in it, including what you added. Only invite people you are willing to share your list with. The person who created the household can remove members; a removed member keeps nothing from it.

What you may not do

The service exists to keep a grocery list and get you round a shop. Using it for anything else, or in a way that costs other people their use of it, is not allowed. In particular you may not:

• Try to make the AI features do anything other than their job. Item names, notes, aisle names, aisle descriptions, dictation and photographs are read by a language model to sort, parse or transcribe them. Writing instructions into any of those fields to change what the model does, to make it reveal how it is prompted, or to make it produce something other than a list result, is prohibited.
• Probe, scan or test the service for weaknesses, or try to get past a rate limit, an allowance, a permission check or a sign-in.
• Use scripts, bots or anything other than the app to talk to the service, or send it traffic designed to slow it down or run up its costs.
• Read, change or delete another household's data, or try to.
• Put anything unlawful into the service, or anything that belongs to another person and that you have no right to share.
• Copy, resell or rebrand the service, or take its data out in bulk.

AI features and allowances

Parsing a list, sorting items into aisles, reading a photographed list or sign, and turning speech into text send that text, photo or audio to a third-party model provider, as described in the privacy policy. The result can be wrong. Check it before you rely on it. These features cost money each time they run, so every household has an allowance for them. When it is used up, the feature waits until the allowance renews. We may lower an allowance, or pause a feature for a household, if its use looks automated or abusive.

What we look at, and when

Running the service means your lists, notes, shops and photos are stored on our servers, and we are able to read them. In the ordinary course of things nobody does. There are two situations in which a person on our side looks at a specific household's data:

• You asked us to. If you report a problem and we need to see what the app did for your household to answer it, we ask you first, look at what the question needs, and stop there.
• We suspect these terms are being broken. If a household's use looks like an attack on the service, an attempt to misuse the AI features, or a breach of the rules above, we may examine that household's activity and content to the extent needed to decide what happened and what to do about it.

Beyond that, we use records of what happened — that an item was added, that a trip started and how long it took, that a feature was used and whether it worked — to find bugs and decide what to build. Those records are described in the privacy policy. They say what was done, not what was on your list, and they are kept for a limited time and then deleted.

Closing an account or household

We may suspend or close an account, or a whole household, if we reasonably believe these terms have been broken, if its use is harming the service or other users, or if the law requires it. Where we can, we say why. Where the behaviour is ongoing — an attack, or a repeated attempt to get past a limit — we may act first and explain afterwards.

A closed account loses access to the service. What happens to its data is described under Deleting your data in the privacy policy. Subscriptions are bought through Apple, and any refund is decided by Apple under its own policy; closing an account for a breach of these terms does not create a right to a refund from us.

You can close your own account at any time from Settings in the app.

Availability and changes

The service is in active development. Features are added, changed and removed. We do not promise that it will be available at any given moment or that any feature will remain. We will give notice of a change that removes something you have paid for, and Apple's refund policy applies to the unused part of a subscription.

What we are not responsible for

The service is provided as it is. It keeps a list; it does not guarantee that the list, an aisle guess, a parsed recipe or a transcription is correct or complete. To the extent the law allows, we are not liable for loss arising from your use of the service, and our total liability to you is limited to what you paid for the service in the twelve months before the claim. Nothing here limits liability that the law does not allow to be limited.

Governing law

These terms are governed by the laws of the State of Connecticut, United States, and any dispute is brought in the courts of Connecticut.

Changes to these terms

If these terms change, the date at the top changes with it, and the app asks you to accept the new version the next time a change affects what you are allowed to do or what we may do with your data.
