Terms of Service

Applies to: the Typalock app, website & products Effective date: June 1, 2026 Last updated: August 4, 2026

1. Acceptance of these terms

These Terms of Service (the “Terms”) are a legal agreement between you and Lokd Technologies Ltd. governing your use of the Typalock mobile app, our website, and our products and services (together, the “Service”). They also serve as the end-user licence agreement (EULA) for the app. You accept these Terms by checking the “I agree” box presented at account sign-up or checkout, or by using the Service after you have been given notice of them. We keep a record of the version you accepted and when. Your personal information is handled separately under our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, do not create an account, use the app, or buy our products.

2. Who we are

The Service is provided by Lokd Technologies Ltd., a corporation incorporated federally under the Canada Business Corporations Act, operating from Nova Scotia, Canada. You can reach us at support@lokdfocus.com, or by mail at PO Box 44146, Bedford, NS, B4A 3X5, Canada.

Typalock is free. There are no in-app purchases, no subscriptions, and no prices anywhere in the app or on this website. We do not collect payment details, and no payment processor handles anything on our behalf. If we sell physical focus tags in future, we will publish complete purchase terms here before that store opens.

Lokd Technologies Ltd. is solely responsible for the app and for this Service. Apple, Google, and any other platform through which you obtain the app are not parties to these Terms and are not responsible for the app, its content, or its support (see Section 9).

3. Eligibility & accounts

  • You must be at least 13 years old to create a Typalock account. By creating an account you confirm that you are 13 or older and that you have the legal capacity to enter into these Terms. If you are under the age of majority where you live, you may use the Service only with the involvement of a parent or legal guardian who agrees to these Terms.
  • We may terminate any account we believe belongs to someone under 13.
  • You are responsible for keeping your account credentials confidential and for activity that occurs under your account as a result of your failure to keep them secure. Please notify us promptly at support@lokdfocus.com if you believe your account has been compromised.
  • You agree to provide accurate information and to keep it up to date. Creating an account for someone else, impersonating another person, or holding multiple accounts in order to evade a suspension is a breach of these Terms.
  • If you register a business, school, or other organization, or accept these Terms on its behalf, you confirm you are authorized to bind that organization, which is then the contracting party and is responsible for its users’ compliance with these Terms.

4. Child Mode & guardians

Typalock is not a parental-control, child-safety, content-filtering, or device-management service. Child Mode is a convenience feature secured by a passcode set on the device itself. It is not a substitute for supervision, and we do not represent that it prevents a determined user from accessing any app, website, or content.

Child Mode is intended to be set up and managed by a parent or legal guardian. By enabling Child Mode you represent that you are the child’s parent or guardian (or have their authority), that you consent to the collection and use of the child’s information as described in our Privacy Policy, and that you are responsible for the child’s use of the Service. You may review, restrict, and delete the child’s information at any time by contacting us or through the account settings available to you.

5. Licence to use the app

Subject to these Terms, Lokd grants you a limited, personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable licence to download and use the app on devices you own or control, for your personal, non-commercial use. The app is licensed, not sold. You may not:

  • copy, modify, or create derivative works of the app, except as applicable law expressly permits (for example, making a single backup copy, or adapting the app where essential for interoperability under the Copyright Act);
  • reverse-engineer, decompile, or disassemble it, except to the extent that applicable law (including the interoperability, security-research, and maintenance/repair exceptions under the Copyright Act) permits despite this restriction;
  • rent, lease, sell, sublicense, or distribute it; or
  • remove any proprietary notices, or use the app other than as permitted by these Terms and any usage rules of the app store you obtained it from.

This Section, together with Sections 6 and 7, is the end-user licence for the app; no separate end-user licence agreement is required, although the minimum terms required by the app store from which you download the app also apply (see Section 9). If you breach this licence, it terminates automatically and you must stop using and delete the app.

6. Acceptable use & zero tolerance

6.1 Zero tolerance for objectionable content and abusive behaviour

Typalock has zero tolerance for objectionable, abusive, harassing, or predatory behaviour. Content that breaches these Terms may be removed and the responsible account may be restricted, suspended, or terminated.

6.2 Prohibited content

You may not create, upload, post, send, or otherwise make available through the Service any content that:

  • is illegal, sexually explicit, exploitative, hateful, violent, abusive, threatening, or discriminatory;
  • harasses, bullies, stalks, impersonates, defrauds, or otherwise targets another person;
  • infringes another person’s rights or discloses their private information without consent; or
  • is spam, deceptive, malicious, or deliberately false.

6.3 Prohibited conduct

You also agree not to:

  • break the law, infringe rights, evade a suspension, or misuse another person’s account;
  • solicit minors, continue unwanted contact, or use the Service to control, isolate, or endanger another person;
  • interfere with or gain unauthorized access to the Service, its systems, or another user’s account or data; or
  • use automation, tamper with tags or activation codes, or otherwise misuse the Service.

Safety note: Typalock blocks apps you choose to block. It is not a safety device. Do not rely on it in an emergency, and do not configure it in a way that could prevent you or anyone else from getting help.

7. Your content, reporting & enforcement

7.1 Your content and the licence you give us

You retain ownership of content you submit, such as your profile details and sections, interests, photos, Space and group names, nudge and ping messages, event text, and venue busyness reports (“User Content”). You grant Lokd a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free licence to host, store, reproduce, and display your User Content as needed to operate, secure, support, and improve the Service, including the right to use aggregated and de-identified busyness data. You represent that you have the rights to your User Content and that it is accurate, lawful, and compliant with Section 6.

User Content is created by users, not by Lokd. We do not endorse it and we are not responsible for it, but we do act on it as described below.

7.2 How to report objectionable content or an abusive user

You can report content or behaviour that breaches Section 6 from within the app or to support@lokdfocus.com, and you can block any user, which prevents them contacting you or appearing to you. We review reports within 24 hours and remove content or remove users who breach these Terms.

7.3 What we do about it

When we determine that content or conduct breaches these Terms, we will take the action we judge appropriate, which may include any of the following, with or without prior notice:

  • removing or restricting content;
  • warning, restricting, suspending, or terminating an account; and
  • preserving evidence or notifying law enforcement where appropriate or required.

We may also remove content, or decline to act, in the exercise of our reasonable judgement, for example where a report is inaccurate, retaliatory, or made in bad faith. Repeatedly filing bad-faith reports is itself a breach of these Terms. If we remove your content or restrict your account and you believe we got it wrong, reply to us at support@lokdfocus.com and we will take a second look.

8. Intellectual property

Lokd and its licensors own all rights in the Service, including the app, website, designs, the “Lokd” and “Typalock” names and logos, and the aggregated busyness dataset. Except for the limited licence in Section 5 and your rights in your own User Content, nothing in these Terms transfers any intellectual-property rights to you. You may not use our trademarks without our prior written permission.

If you believe content on the Service infringes your copyright or trademark, write to support@lokdfocus.com with a description of the work, where the infringing material appears, and your contact details, and we will review it.

9. Third-party services & app stores

The Service relies on third parties (for example, our hosting, database, payment, and push-notification providers, and the Apple App Store and Google Play). Your use of those services may be subject to their terms, and we are not responsible for them. Our Privacy Policy lists the providers that process personal information for us.

Sign in with Lokd / connected apps. If you use Lokd to sign in to or connect a third-party application, you authorize us to share the specific data you approve at the consent screen; your use of that third-party application is governed by its own terms, not ours.

Apple-sourced apps. If you obtained the app from the Apple App Store: these Terms are between you and Lokd (not Apple); Lokd, not Apple, is solely responsible for the app, its content, support and maintenance, and any product or intellectual-property claims relating to it; Apple has no obligation to provide any maintenance or support for the app; you represent that you are not located in a country subject to a US embargo or on a prohibited-parties list; you will comply with applicable third-party terms of use; and Apple and its subsidiaries are third-party beneficiaries entitled to enforce these Terms against you. Similar acknowledgements apply to Google Play and any other distribution platform.

10. Disclaimers

The Service helps you manage focus and block apps, but you remain responsible for your own decisions and device. Except for the statutory rights described in Section 12, and to the fullest extent permitted by law, the Service is provided “as is” and “as available,” without warranties of any kind, whether express, implied, or statutory, including any implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement. We do not warrant that the Service will be uninterrupted, error-free, secure, or that app-blocking will work in all circumstances or on all devices. We do not warrant the accuracy of user-submitted content, including busyness reports and anything shown on another user’s profile.

11. Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, and subject to Section 12:

  • Lokd will not be liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or for lost profits, data, or goodwill, arising out of or relating to the Service; and
  • Lokd’s total aggregate liability arising out of or relating to the Service will not exceed the greater of (a) the amount you paid us for the product or service giving rise to the claim in the 12 months before the claim, or (b) CA$100. This cap does not apply to liability that cannot be limited under applicable law (see Section 12).

12. Your statutory consumer rights

Nothing in these Terms limits or excludes any rights or warranties you have as a consumer that cannot be limited or excluded under applicable law, including under Nova Scotia’s Consumer Protection Act and Sale of Goods Act, and equivalent consumer-protection legislation in your province (such as Quebec’s Consumer Protection Act). Where such laws apply, the disclaimers and limitations in Sections 10 and 11 apply only to the extent permitted, and your mandatory statutory rights (including any non-excludable warranties on the physical product) prevail.

13. Indemnification

To the extent permitted by law, you agree to indemnify and hold harmless Lokd and its directors, officers, and employees from claims, damages, and reasonable costs arising out of your breach of these Terms, your misuse of the Service, or your User Content, except to the extent caused by Lokd. This Section does not apply to anything that cannot be subject to indemnification under applicable consumer law.

14. Suspension & termination

You may stop using the Service and delete your account at any time from the app (Profile → Settings → Delete Account), or by asking us at support@lokdfocus.com. We may suspend or terminate your access if you breach these Terms, including Section 6, if required by law, or if necessary to protect the Service or other users. Where we terminate an account for objectionable content or abusive behaviour, we may refuse to provide the Service to that person again. Sections that by their nature should survive termination (including Sections 9, 11–14, 17, and 18) will survive.

15. Changes to the service or terms

We may modify or discontinue parts of the Service, and we may update these Terms from time to time. For a non-material change, your continued use of the Service after we post the update indicates your acceptance. For a material change, we will give you reasonable notice and, where appropriate, ask you to agree before it applies to you. We will update the “Last updated” date. If you do not agree to a change, stop using the Service.

16. Governing law & disputes

These Terms are governed by the laws of the Province of Nova Scotia and the federal laws of Canada applicable there, without regard to conflict-of-laws rules. Subject to Section 12, you agree to bring any dispute in the courts of Nova Scotia. Nothing in these Terms prevents a consumer from exercising rights they cannot waive under the consumer-protection law of their home province (for example, residents of Quebec, Ontario, and certain other provinces cannot be required to waive the right to bring a class action or to use the courts). We have deliberately not imposed a mandatory arbitration process or a class-action waiver: if we cannot resolve something with you directly, you keep your ordinary right to go to court.

17. General

  • Entire agreement. These Terms and the Privacy Policy are the entire agreement between you and Lokd about the Service.
  • Severability. If any provision is found unenforceable, the rest remains in effect.
  • No waiver. Our failure to enforce a provision is not a waiver of it.
  • Assignment. You may not assign these Terms without our consent; we may assign them in connection with a corporate transaction.
  • Language. These Terms are published in English, which is the governing language. We do not currently sell products in Quebec; before we offer products for sale there we will publish a French version of these Terms and of the purchase terms.

18. Contact
